UK Contributor: Nikki 2

It’s contributor day!! Check out Nikki’s second post…

I have an aunt who once modeled in NYC and tells a story of dating Chris De Burgh, and every time I wear this dress I think of her (que: Lady in Red).  The song was actually written about his wife, who is not my aunt, but hey ho.  When I first saw these Kurt Geiger ‘dalmation’ boots online, I had to sanity check myself to make sure I was a) able to pull them off and b) that I hadn’t been living in London too long.  The fashion here can sometimes blow my mind with what goes with what, and it’s easy to go crazy because some people look genuinely crazy.  Anything goes, I’ve come to realize.  I thought I would wear them with only neutrals and basics, but I have worn them with coloured jeans/polka dot tights and today with my red Zara dress.  It has been raining for 6 weeks straight now so I’m not oft without my umbrella, which is from Italy.  I couldn’t resist doing a Mary Poppins jump from a log with my umbrella (which hurt my ankles when I hit the concrete).  All in the name of fashion!
