black satin circle skirt
Hi Huns...
Ehh Bonita...Unintended...But i got a Torero kool vibes going on here...Ooo and i'm loving it!!...
A blend of masculinity mixed in with this ultra feminine touches...If this outfit could kick A** and give abit of attitude...My guesses would be a red hot blooded, sassy character...Who doesn't take no nonsense...Ohh abit like the owner then...Rrrright!...Hehe...
It's funny how unappealing this skirt was to me not so long ago....I've had this lil beauty... Well at-least i can say that now...Hung up in my wardrobe for the longest of times...In fact, too long....It didn't speak to me...Dare i say...It was on the verge of going on the give away pile to go straight out the front door...
Do you ever try and make a give away pile and throw and still end up with the majority of it...Coz you've found some random justifying reason to suddenly keep it....So that pile then corruptly creeps back into your wardrobe again...(YEP!...I'm shaking my head right about now)..Hmmm..Excuses..Excuses..Aye!
Well getting back to the story at hand...Teamed with the right shoes, Jacket and accessories...Well fire me up!...we are good to go!...Accessories believe it or not...are near enough as old as me...Naaah joke...As close as though...Put it this way the necklace in-particular...I've had for donkey years...Bought just before immigrating to the middle east- Kuwait ...work related....Gooosh is that how long it's been... that's a loooooong time...Possibly 2005/6 maybe...Well it's held up quite well...
Yes of course this was one of my many impulse buys...Loved it there and then..Well the reality of it...Take it home...what the hell am i gonna wear it with...So fast forward to 2019....and looky looky...Look who's TUN UP!...looking all young, fresh and sassy and no I'm not talking me this time...I'm talking my necklace...hehe...It doesn't look a day over a year old...
Well, if there were ever a GOOD! reason to hoard...Not saying hoarding is good thing guys...
Sometimes you gotta throw caution to the wind and just let go...Well in this instance it certainly was a good day to keep...
