Proenza Schouler Resort SS14 | Dior RTW SS14 | Céline RTW SS14
Legs. If there was ever a touchy subject.
With three consecutive days of Summer sun under our belts already this week; my aversion to whipping out my sparrow-like and pasty looking pins had started to waver. Of course, what I think may look resort ready in the bedroom mirror, may not always be the case once placed among the opinionated public.
Milk bottles? Please.
Saving my gallant efforts for the day when white becomes the 'new tan' - this season brings forward a new savour; ready and willing to take those reluctant enough not to go bare-legged, straight ahead of the Spring/Summer fash-pack.
Injecting playful personalities into what essentially is a firm favourite amongst many a librarian; the pleated skirt is back for 2014 and is fast becoming the piece of the current season.
Modern pleats whose fold is feminine and liquid in movement; they came adorned with bold brush strokes down the runway of Céline, asymmetrically cut away at Christian Dior and shimmering divinely in metallic finishes at Proenza Schouler - yet all the while covering up just the right amount of unwanted limb.
For an item that so fluidly moves throughout Spring's entire wardrobe; I'll be teaming mine with the slouchiest of knits (the sloppier the better) and my new found love affair aka those white Birks.
Now, let's see who's got something to say about my ankles...
