On second thought, once I saw it with the belt from the side, I like it. Maybe without the pants? But It's cute.

That jacket makes me drool like an idiot. I don't want to say anymore. This look deserves reverent silence.

Love it again. I think it would also look really good with a more assertively punky looking hat, though that hat adds its own sweet touch. With those leggings, you could be wearing chain mail and a helmet. . .

inspiring for (some of) us - who every day just change our t'shirt and jeans or skirt; our uniform! we just need to think outside the box and we can be creative and look gorgeous too!

I want the shoes. You look like a warrior princess in your warrir tights and those to-die-for shoes. Where are they from?

are you sending a text-ural message here? I dunno why, but the hat reminds me of Maggie Simpson's head--in a fashion-forward way. :)

The fourth pic is gorgeous! Really like it with the belt. I love the blue shoes, but not sure how well they would work without the blue background.

me tagged this whodathunkit?
if you layed those clothes out on the floor to show us what you were wearing, i think i would have become extremely sick, and possibly gone into a fashion coma. BUT for some reason, when the clothes are on you, i am unable to barf or become comatose. i figured out your fashioin secret: you can make anything, whether it's trashbags or satin tights, look like couture

Julie tagged this My fave!
I think this is my favorite outfit so far, out of the entire project! Love love love the warrior tights and those fabulous shoes. Wonder how this might look with a punk-ier, even spikier hat? Congrats on all your successful efforts to keep things fresh and exciting for all of us loyal viewers.

Back again. My philosophy is that if someone says it's their most favorite and someone says it's their least, then you must be Spot On!

I love the waist down. I think it would look better without the bubble scarf and jacket and put more bright colors that will make you memorable in the most fashionable way.
