Shadowed by the exit light





I stumbled upon this cardigan on my beloved ebay, the royal blue with white trim, the gold buttons arranged in double breasted fashion were all too much to resist. I’ve convinced myself that I can wear any size depending on the cut of the garment, so its largeness was no issue. The shoes were another ebay job and an absolute necessity following my obsession with the YSL caged lovelies. I’m pretty sure i’ve committed the ‘ultimate fashion faux pas’ by wearing socks with open toed shoes but the thought of flashes of white sock peeking through the straps sent the logic in my head into overdrive.

  2. I really like the way the second picture's caressing light effect transfigures your Haughty Beauty . . . on a "diurnal/neo gothic" mode, whose dazzling/immaculate tones are perfectly in harmony with your White socks !!!
