    The boobs of the girl in the dotted bikini made me laugh out loud. If they were pushed any higher, they'd cover her eyes.

    i absolutely love this color.
    i sometimes wonder what is the difference between magenta and fuchsia? i think fuschia is brighter and magenta is a bit darker, more purplier--but the colors are very similar.
    i'm glad you liked that F21 dress. isn't it so cute? well...more like hot. :)

    Its such a pretty girly colour, but I am just so scared to wear it. Its too bright for me. Hopefully I'll manage to find a more subtle piece in this colour, possibly those shoes...

  25. InconMay 15, 2009 at 2:10 PM

    magenta is a very bold color but i think will look nice if worn right. I'm still a bit iffy about it tho because it looks a lil too much like pink. I love pink shoes tho. :)
