I am sick to death of all our (Australian) TV personalities going in for a remake on the hair follicles. There is only about 1 on TV here that hasn't succumbed to the remake. Bald men can be sexy. As hell. So don't put warnings up above your bald hair because you have a good egg. And I love the houndstooth. Perhaps worn at separates. Not all together. Please. And red rib tights.NessaKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08108527200793028314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991166428290808171.post-35139269948560667832010-11-12T15:27:48.884-05:002010-11-12T15:27:48.884-05:00Maybe channel Mary Quant with Cathy's houndsto...Maybe channel Mary Quant with Cathy's houndstooth look -- white gogo boots, a trailing neck scarf, a pageboy hairdo?
