{signature style} it’s a slip

shearling vest and satin skirt

Part skirt part liability. This sheer satin negligée with asymmetric pleating and cut-out embroidered hemline is most definitely a cut above your average.

In my line of work, averages mean everything. Average age le season, average life-span le micro-trend, average price le discount. This satin slip pertains to all preceding adjectives, though the 50% price reduction was certainly at the forefront of my reasoning when I weighed up the hour long queue for the till. I weighed up a lot of stuff in that 55 minutes.

Granted I was under duress – the pressure to secure a mighty sale-of-the-frickin-season – mentally coercered into making a rash decision which only afterwards I reasoned as soul destroying. Even with advance warning from twitter and fuelled with a fistful of mint creams (freebie tray at Hotel Chocolat), there was still a chance I may have thrown in the silky towel and stormed off to Sushi Samba an hour earlier and an Isabel Marant Étoile ‘deconstructed separate’ lighter.

So on that note, let’s consider the verdict while i reconsider my New Years Eve outfit. ONLINE.
