pink, some pink lace and a pencil skirtAnz Banking Internet

I finally saw The Notorious Bettie Page the other night, and really enjoyed it. I think it inspired me, sartorially at least, too; I haven't worn my faux bang for a while, and decided to bring it out again – and loved it. Of course, the fact I having been mulling over getting a fringe/bangs (though not necessarily a BP one) a lot recently had something do do with it too :)

And, well, whilst inspired by such an iconic, left-of-centre '50s look, why not let the outfit follow - if you'll pardon the bad pun - suit? A black, longer length pencil skirt (I love them when they hit below the knee) and a soft pink cropped cardigan fit the bill for me. I did, however, add a modern touch: the pink lace tights are brand new. I do like the pattern, but the tights are so very, very long, longer than any I've worn before – and I've worn a lot of tights. I think I might just take the scissors to 'em and turn them into stockings!
