Thigh high boots add a dash of sexiness to anything, even a simple chambray dress. Sheer dotted tights helped to add more detail to this simple yet effective look which managed to mix light summer fabric with a heavier scarf and boots.

When we spoke to Redken’s Guido Palau backstage at Prada’s spring show, he described Prada’s faux bang hairstyle as a way to make the classic french twist “more boyish”.
