Palazzo {an unrequited love story}.

Tuesday 15 January 2013

                               (Top - Talulah; palazzo pants - Rachel Rachel; necklace - gifted by Pree Brulee)







































































































































































When I choose pieces for my wardrobe, I do have a natural predilection for those that suit my body shape (fun size with ample hips). Sometimes, however, I fall desperately in love with a trend...even despite the fact that the affections are not reciprocated.

Cue these palazzo pants. 

On the right body type (vertiginous and slender...), these pants are just exquisite with their high waist and side slits that lilt perfectly with the summer breeze. They will add shape to less voluptuous figures and conceal the Christmas pudding that may still be residing in one's thighs. But alas, they make me look positively porcine! I haven't decided how to deal with our dilemma but perhaps we will have a sartorial reconciliation with a little tailoring...

  2. A post after my own heart. Wear what makes you happy, not what looks good.

    You'd think they'd be one and the same...alas..

    And I'm obsessed with this self-description ((fun size with ample hips)). bahah. You are such the perfect mix of haute and humor. I love your blog.
