Stiletto's n Sportz

Having worn very little sports attire thus far in my existence I was more used to associating such with bagginess, stretch appropriate and breathable... 
Yet unbelievably yonder below here I am in an outfit that fits all three of those criteria and am reassured that 'sports' is most certainly a trend right now. Goooo grab that lycra!!
 Featured stiletto's not essential and in fact may be detrimental to  general well being and ankles in a competitive real sporting environment...

The Complete Works of said playwright can be found here for leisurely and free perusal;

Degas Drawings

So back to my fave M d'O... (see below) in amongst all the wonderful Impressionist oils paintings, pastel creations, Art Nouveau designs and just general beautifulness housed in this establishment there is also currently a Degas exhibition. 
Degas et le nu aka 'Degas and the nude' is full of sketches and sculptures by the artist of nikid bodies, well generally naked women featuring a fair few bath tubs n all. But the sheer amount on display is just amazing and the pastel colours-often using oil pastels are just too pretty with his soft lines and gentle shading. 
... Want a return billet sil vous plait!
