In a recent Daily Mail article it has been publicised that Kate Middleton, the well dressed, soon to be Royal had re-worked a quite marvelous herringbone overcoat. She’d had the coat cut down to show off her well turned ankles and shapely legs. This is an excellent example of what we were setting out to achieve in the www.100itemchallenge.com, it’s not just economical in this particular challenging financial crisis, it’s common sense. Buy quality and wear for a decent amount of time.
Also, I am not a royalist by any stretch of the imagination, however in fairness it’s good that someone in the public eye is re-wearing outfits, where so many (I say this loosely) ‘celebrities’ never wear the same thing once normally with body parts slipping out for the paparazzi. Hopefully a new Royal will give something for young girls to aspire to be like, unlike page 3 girls or the big brother types.
Are you not sick of seeing the high streets and pubs full of orange skinned body hugging over sized women wearing crop tops, micro skirts and crappy Primark ‘wear once before it self destructs in the washing machine’. And the relentless production line of waive like girls wearing hardly anything in the most appalling weather conditions, as their favorite ‘celebrity’ has fallen out of a stretched limo onto a red carpet event of the opening of an envelope. I certainly am.
Good on you Kate Middleton. Bring back some taste and well dressed women to Britain.
