For some reason, there is a current obsession with the leg as an erogenous zone. Every magazine claims that spring is all about the mini. I am, however, not the biggest fan. Maybe its because knees have never really turned me on... or the countless pasty white legs of New Yorkers who insisted spring began weeks ago despite 40 degree weather... or maybe i just enjoyed being one of the lucky few who had a flat stomach and enjoyed the midriff's moment of sex appeal.

For the first time in years, I too have started to crave all things short. While I have some booty shorts, I have yet to find many dresses that a flatteringly-sexy and not slutty-short. I also have the feeling (hope) that this trend will be over soon (despite what Fall 07 runways dictates).

In the end, I am a slave to fashion and must embrace the look... and what better way then in Delia's Lana Eyelet Babydoll lavender dress. The color boosts anyone's tan, the length is short but the detailing is sweet, and the slightly trapeze shape keeps it from being clingy... which would, of course, equate to sleazy which is the mistake so often made with mini's.

I'll be wearing this throughout the hot summer and please, if I see you sporting something similar: REMEMBER SELF TANNER.
