"Near, far, wherever you are....I buh-lieve.... that the CHAIN does go on..." Did memories of EVERYONE in year 8 playing that fucking song on the piano (myself... *shame* included...) in the classroom come flooding back... ? It did for me...
Instead of the bleedin' heart though, this chain, specifically Fannie Schiavoni's chain dress/cage slipover will, as I found out, go on and on and on.... It's really too hot to be changing in and out of outfits in my un-airconditioned flat that smells of last night's fish and chips. Still, I felt compelled to try a variety of different things with it... plain, prints, tight, cartoon-y, dress-y (that goes in order of the pics by the by...). That's just five words out of a plethora of themes and descriptions that could possibly go with this chain piece. In other words, there is no limit except perhaps going completely buck naked with this on. Whilst this equals outfit joy for me, it also means that whenever I'm about to grapple with this piece, it will undoubtedly create a catastrophe of a clothing whirlwind in my bedroom. Lower the temperature down a few degrees and this post might have gone on and on and on like ol' Dion back in '97 when she just couldn't stop her heart from running a marathon...
