SLITHERIN'

Attention dinggers! My partner in crime, George, recently handed me these – two pairs of gorgeous shorts made of faux python skin. One was in dark gray, the other in lighter gray. OMG, I was bitten right there and then!

Faux python skin shorts given to me by George - how twit!

Of course, it will take lots of guts and insistent prayers for me to wear one of these. If only I was blessed with the kilometric legs of iconic Melanie Marquez, or even so, the flawlessness of MUA/friend Bobby Carlos… But heck, it’s summer, and I love trotting in tapered shorts!

Having known Geo’s talent for spotting fab but cheap thrills, you’d be more surprised to know that each pair costs only P35 at Divisoria! Super mura, as in! These rubbery snakeskin shorts instantly reminded me of Prada S/S 2010 for men – bold, wild and adventurous! Steal the look as provided below by pulling on a knit top, finish off with a pair of statement sunglasses and leather flats – then you’re off to a weekend Safari or on to a luxury holiday cruise! Don’t you just slither?!
