Brunnhilde and her Valkyrie sisters would look smashing in those helmets. <br /><br />Although, riding winged horses in those filmy see-through dresses might pose just a bit of a problem. Still, I can see great potential. To see what the fashion forward Valkyries are wearing this season, visit my blog post: http://thefrenchtouch-m-t.blogspot.com/2011/05/bye-bye-brunnhilde.htmlMarie-Thérèsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06834644226980732441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632687405116920387.post-15493999370655575922011-07-19T02:02:08.491+02:002011-07-19T02:02:08.491+02:00If one had a flat perky breast, perhaps you could ...If one had a flat perky breast, perhaps you could get away with those dresses<br /><br />the rings and earings are quirky and cute.TK Kerouachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16974421845211184875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632687405116920387.post-16465173509484488142011-07-18T19:42:46.182+02:002011-07-18T19:42:46.182+02:00Hysterical!

Well, maybe Anna Dello Russo would wear the helmet hat. And, for now, I'll just wear my own jewelry, but those are amazing party favors for the girls.

The see-through dress would distract my students. The Viking helmet wouldn't fit in my tiny car as I motor around town. And the earrings would also be distracting, and probably heavy as well, and since I wear glasses, a bit too busy.<br /><br />The dress IS lovely on the model, though. I think much depends on the body the dress encases, as to the effectiveness of the dress...Charlotte Holmeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09584389308420834826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632687405116920387.post-65871131399784861592011-07-18T16:00:45.891+02:002011-07-18T16:00:45.891+02:00If I had that ring, I'd think about cookies al...If I had that ring, I'd think about cookies all day long.
