I like accentuating my legs. They take me to places. Primping them up remains true enjoyment. Leggings have been, gone and come back. Leg avenues, letting our feet fleet. Longitudes, high heels, knee-highs – all there to make us feel yet more feminine and sumptuous. I had fun with contrasting black and young Burdungy wine tones. The cotton over cotton textures gently pushing me closer to spring.
Palais de Tokyo, a modern art haven overlooking the Eiffel Tower, is where I love to hang out. I retreat there for some spur. I savor the venturesome exhibitions, lunch on poached eggs and ratatouille, linger in the bookstore… take in the atmosphere of colorfulness and celebration of creativity. Once I get out, the one thing cluttering my mind is rushing home and starting to percolate… fashion and art alike! Lovelies, do you have an adrenalizing purlieu like that?

Loving how pretty you look, Susu! And so playful, too. Girl, if I had your legs, I’d show them off like crazy!
Have a beautiful weekend, my beautiful friend. Hugs and love to you!

Thanks so much for your comment, by the way! <3

This is probably my favourite outfit on you so far…the colours, the silhouette…just beautiful!
Can’t wait to visit Paris in late Spring. You are such an inspiration!

did you know that susu means “milk” in the malay language?
thanks for dropping by and leaving such kind words
i wish i can elongate my legs with heels. i totally fail being a normal person in them. so i make do with legs the length they’re given me rather than risk making a fool of myself. i think people will still laugh at a long-legged fool.

Susu, my dear, what a fresh, spring time outfit to play the day away! I adore over-the-knee boots, they provide extra height and elongate the legs of a petite girl (5’2″)like myself! I’m sitting in my garden enjoying the morning and catching up on your blog. I’ve been working on a case with fraud data going back 20-years (!!) so I’ve been very out of touch; I need my fashion fix! Happy Palm Sunday to you, sweetie
hugs,
