La Simpatica...

There's nothing girly or coy about Ms Loren - she's ALL woman - now that's what I call "Va Va Voom"!!!

My SS Feelings #22: I Am Feeling Rebellious

Now, this may not look rebellious in the sea of leather, tattoos, studs and mini, mini skirts around now.

But in the mid-80's when I was in my early teens, and everyone else was a new romantic or a punk, a girl wearing classic 60's mod style was considered REALLY rebellious. Especially in the middle of a rural town where I lived!

And I must admit, my enduring love of sharp tailoring, simplicity and an Otis Redding track stems from way back then...

p.s. And I would give away my granny for this Chloe coat!

That coat really is worth trading in a relative of some sort for. I think this outfit is rebellious and cool. You could easily wear this today and get loads of compliments for it.
