Max it up

Dedicated blogger that I am, I spent all of 7 minutes shooting last weekend before toddling off for lunch with a friend.  But, I packed a lot into that 7 minutes, getting not one but two great shots, and having the absolute pleasure of meeting one of my favourite bloggers, David of  The Nyanzi Report who happened to be shooting on the same corner.  One of the photos I got was this.  I couldn't resist the not-quite-maxi skirt and I loved the way it was styled so simply with the vest, leather jacket and brogues...proof that you don't always have to wear a long skirt with heels and that you can wear one in the winter...


Hot off the press is the news I've just WON Platform Princess's recent competition and will soon be taking delivery of some amazing 70s flares, as modelled here by the lady herself.  I never win anything, and I'm currently obsessed with the 70s (I blame the excellent Runaways movie - Dakota Fanning, you are just too cool) so it's made made my weekend.  Thanks!

    Ha! I remember that. I was lurking outside like a feret who'd heard a rumour that there were big fat mice on the loose. But little did I know that one of my favorite bloggers was just feet away from me! It was great to finally meet you and put a face behind the blog.
