To thigh high or not to thigh high?

So it is that time of year when I am starting to decide which looks I want to channel in the up and coming winter months. This forces me not only to buy items in the sales that I will be able to wear next season but also means I can start hunting down vintage versions now at a fraction of the price.

However, I am facing a bit of a dilemma. Do I dare to invest in some thigh high boots as they are undoubtedly the biggest footwear trend for A/W or will I in fact never wear them for fear of being mistaken for a hooker?

Bearing in mind Pretty Woman was and indeed still is one of my favourite films do I 'work it baby own it' or is it just one slutty step too far in the quest to be at the forefront of fashion?

Quelle décision!

Resort and pre-fall collections are the best!

After browsing the Resort 2010 collections and looking back at my previous blogs on Pre-fall collections I have come to the conclusion that I often prefer these collections to the actual Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter stuff.

For me these collections are so wearable. They are simple. Less about making a huge statement during the competition of fashion week and more about creating clothes that people will actually wear.

Stella McCartney's Resort collection is a perfect example. I want everything. And as usual I especially want her jumper dresses and jumpsuits which are clearly her forte.

Which outfit do you prefer?

Ouch!

Do you ever look at an outfit or a piece of clothing and it is almost too painful to look at?

It doesn't happen often but when it does it is a joyful experience that is worth the pain!

Just a moment ago whilst sat on my laptop I cried out 'ouch' which startled my husband into asking "what's wrong?". As you can imagine he didn't quite get my 'pain' at seeing this Philip Lim Resort 2010 collection, however, I know you guys will get it.

So prepare yourself before scrolling down. . .




OUCH!
