Remember this beaded cardi/jacket? Here’s the skirt part to it. They came as a set but I’ll wear them apart.
The bluey green black colours remind me of mermaid scales.
Ok time for bed…
ps. Anyone catch 24? Next week is THE last one. Anything I love on TV is always taken off :-

    Cool skirt! Your snake rings are pretty sick too…

    It’s so true; all the good shows go off the air! I’m currently addicted to the new show V. If it gets canceled I’ll cry!

    Fantastic skirt – I want it!! You’ve also styled it to perfection.
    Btw, I love your list of things you miss about London! (many things I take for granted, like cushions on tube seats!), although I was kinda suprised to see ‘public politeness’, which magical part of London were you in?, I have to move there!! 😉
