holy shit, these shoes are so fantastic: am also wild about this silhouette for the summer, from ysl resort 2011: it’s like the grown-up version of low rise pants + belly shirt (i’m not the only one who wore some variation of that outfit throughout highschool, right?), a way to show summer skin without being summer trashy, [...]
