tights terrorist

repost from the sartorialist, from god knows when
first off the surroundings are stunning
she is in a surrealist painting!
[click on image, for a CLOSER LOOK at details]
the glasses (make me miss my vintage raybans *tear*) and the hat/headpiece cocked to one side
reminds me of myself so much
the blazer and clutch are classic, timeless, chic must-have addition accessories to any outfit
BUT
its THOSE TIGHTS that make the look
i can't tell you how many pairs of tights i ruin in one days wear (or one hours....)
i spend money on them and for all intensive purposes they are still functional with one run, so i save them
BUT
after several runs, the rubbish bin is calling..
BUT if you add some more strategically placed runs, they are fashion
they are Rodarte-Prada-Miu Miu-esque
AND this I love...
SO before you toss out your next stocking buy (especially if they are Wolford and cost you an arm AND A LEG)
save then for some rock'n'roll contrast with your leather booties
or for some pretty contrast a la Courtney Love with some frilly dress
embrace your awkwardness and dishelved self
wear your runny tights with pride
and STYLE
