A Fringed Flirtation

 





 





 
 “The greatest feminists have also been the greatest lovers. I'm thinking not only of Mary Wollstonecraft and her daughter Mary Shelley, but of Anais Nin, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and of course Sappho. You cannot divide creative juices from human juices. And as long as juicy women are equated with bad women, we will err on the side of being bad.”  
 
Erica Jong, via 1

  3. Emalina, you evokes thoughts of hot nights dancing in San Juan Puerto Rico in the famous Convento Hotel!
    The skirt and the shoes are supper-sexy and so feminine!
    Have a great weekend my dear,

  4. What an engaging, gorgeous vibrancy there is to this alluring outfit. It sings and dances with the passion of a pulsating, vivacious Latin beat and is a resplendent representation of summer itself, a season which so often shares this same kind of energetic passion.

    You really look stunning, my dear gal!

  5. Gorgeous pinks! There's something kind of Spanish-looking about the skirt. How very flirtatious with your fan you are :)

  6. Ahh, feminine with a kick here, especially with clear heels. And I love the chair under the tree - it's so unexpected yet it fits. Your legs look a mile long. Ms. Jong is a sassy wench - I loved her novel about Fanny Hackabout Jones, the female pirate.

  22. Erica Jong is one of my favorites, and you have reminded me why. You are a vision in the gorgeous pink flower fascinator, the strappy heeled sandals, and the beaded fringe scarf.

    Thank you for linking up to Hat Attack in your beautiful headwear!
