Just caught sight of this shot on the Fashionisto blog, I’ll be honest I’m no huge fan of the entire look. The sandals may have looked good on a runway but in a gothic graveyard teamed with black socks, they don’t work. Socks and sandals? Really? Are you actually having a laugh?

But as my fashion tutor always said when doing research never ever look at the whole image. Sure you may like the look, but figure out the details that make it work, tear up the image leaving only them and use that to inspire you. It’s stop you regurgitating the same stuff as everyone else because when you join the dots of the tiny pieces that inspire you you’ll have made something new.

So thanks to Fashionisto, and Soon, I’ve been inspired by the silver ring/cuff combo by Guiseppe Zanotti, blanked out the sandals/sock fiasco and feel enriched. Its a little Seven of Nine, but not so underneath it all I am still a bit of a geek. I like. In fact I really really like. Not idea how I’d actually look wearing it but lets not get in the way of its beauty.
