We love the boldness, risk-taking and modernity of her style choices, but the downside to all of those qualities is that one is going to find oneself out in public in a higher-than-normal number of outfits that make you look either a little silly or a little crazy. And as we all know, the line separating “risk-taker” from “weirdo” can often be barely existent. But there are parts of this like – such as the color scheme or the play between the textiles. Also, the earrings, mani and braids are fun, and we have no problem with the shoe choice. But there’s no denying the oddness of that shape and also the fact that the design looks like she’s wearing a basic GAP turtleneck under the dress. We love ourselves a risk-taker and that is the main argument in favor of this out-on-a-limb style. The question put to you is, is that argument enough? Put more succinctly:
