soliloquy and swag

Wearing metallics...

The scene of this picture isn't Belmont, but I do happen to be in Italy, which I think is apropos. And in this skirt, it's possible to channel your inner Portia and have suitors battling it out just to spend some time with you! However, in this case, choosing the nice, shiny object is a win all around.   This skirt always gives me LIFE.  This pleated, golden skirt is one of those pieces that will be in your wardrobe until you're really ready for a tomb.  (Okay, I'll try and stop being morbid, but S. started it.)   It's a classic.  The way it catches the light will mesmerize little sweet babies as well as those old perverted men...so consider yourself warned! I often pair really dressy pieces, like this skirt, with gym shoes, and a t-shirt to give it a more casual feel. It makes me feel like I'm not overdressed for the grocery store, yet it appeals to the "extraness" that has always been a part of my aesthetic.  It's also a great way to introduce a bit of metallic into your own wardrobe. Don't ever feel like you have to dim your shine for anyone or any reason.  Shine on...and shine brightly!
