Girl in Boots

She’s lovely, but that’s almost boring for a girl here in Beijing. The modesty of her outfit, the sensitive fit of the garments, is what allures. In a city where 95% of females opt for flash and sequins combined with tight pants, this is refreshing; viewers might notice that eye-grabbing but gentle and natural styles tend to characterize the women and men appearing on stylites.net.

This clip reminded me of a pocket watch. If anything is played out, it’s jeans tucked into boots for women, but the loose jeans in more relaxed boots was something a little different.
