High Slits/Garters


high slits and garters

You've seen those garters everywhere online. May I suggest losing the shorts from 2012 and wearing them with the new must-have: maxi skirts/dresses with high slits? I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone doing this yet. It almost seems too obvious.

Personally, I'm more a fan of the above hardcore style, esp with high boots or combat boots and high socks.

This is the easiest thing to diy if you have the right fabric skirt. Jersey you can just cut. If you have a skirt with edges that will fray, you'll have to sew. I think it'd be cool to wear a high-slit skirt to work (minus the garter of course) with very cool or vivid opaque nylons.

(oh and, where the hell have I been? Working working working... I've been getting hit up for freelance gigs in addition to my day job, which is already high-pressure/high volume as is! typical nyc bullshit, overbooked myself and even had to take time off from work to work on these projects, which of course caused me to get behind in my day-job work. It's been about two weeks, and i'm only now beginning to get caught up. Today's been the only free day I've had in over a month, and I'm weirdly anxious like I feel like i'm neglecting or forgetting something...)
