back to black

No, I'm not referring to the Amy Winehouse performance here in Toronto last night. Rather, I'm impressed with the elegantly scrunched leggings this femme chose to wear today. It's a tricky concept but she executes it well, and I can't help but be reminded of my favourite superhero who dresses in similar fashion:

In a city already dominated by flip flops and tank tops for summer, a little in the way of black mesh and patent leather wedges wouldn't go amiss. For the commenters who are going to tell me that aeon chic is too hot for warmer weather, you can always go for the aeon beachy option. Men can partake too...

La Femme was disillusioned with the 25th century. She had expected it to be a liberal, fashionable environment that would simply rock. Instead graffiti was prohibited, smoking was no longer allowed, and you could no longer watch AEon Flux. The most constrictive restraints of all were the travel restrictions. She was not allowed to go to the 5th dimension. Everyone knew about the existence of the 5th dimension. It is where time stands still and it is rumored that everyone there still wears bomber jackets and does not send email.

“Change is the only constant, j”
“Yes, la Femme, and it is time for you to change.”
