Thigh-high obsession

Sunday, October 11th 2009

This fall, the 80’s era ran ramped on the runway – with a definite rock twist. Stunning.

Yet, with the mere mention of the 80’s many women immediately become hesitant with reminiscent memories of shoulder pads, big hair, and heavy makeup – all working together for the horrid “glamour shots” that haunt to many to date.

So how do we incorporate the 80’s trend without ending up with photos that will need a good hiding place? I recommend incorporating the era into an outfit with a few pieces.

Right now, I am obsessing over thigh high boots. They instantly remind me of Julia Roberts in one of my movie favourites - “Pretty Woman”. These boots will instantly give any outfit you're putting together a needed edge.

Add these boots with a leather jacket, long shirt, and leggings – or with a dress and Voilà! You’re on your way toward 80’s chic. You can dress the rest with some stunning accessories.

Roberto Cavalli – a genius designer – has created these stunning boots for your fall needs. I literally began to drool.

Wanting to have a softer, more feminine touch? Try getting these types of boots in a splash of colour – who said black was the only option? Marc Jacobs makes some stunning thigh highs in a gorgeous violet. That man can do no wrong.

Warmest wishes,
