D&G forecasts a hot summer of masculine tailoring and sexy lace for this fiercely independent lady who ditched her cowboy for the urban life - though she remembered to take a style cue or two along the way.
She knows that a no-nonsense approach is best - what better way to keep cool in the burning urban jungle than with loose layers? Finish it off by rolling up your sleeves and jeans to show off a little of that golden summer skin.
She understands the importance of strong tailoring: a classic man's jacket is just the ticket to get into boys' clubs.. and beat them at their own game. Take no prisoners, why should you?
This girl knows better than to be a one-trick-pony: when she isn't getting inspiration from her man she gets style advice from hip Brits and their mastery of mixing it all up, baggy jeans and tailored pieces, cool denim and sexy lace.
One thing she woud never borrow from a man is the accessories, classic jackets are best not worn with dirty old boots; a little imitation doesn't hurt however and so her own swag is in keeping with the classic boots and man-favourite waist bag. Cool shades not optional.
She might shoot as straight as a man but our girl stills knows her fashion - and is an expert in the art of mixing her fabrics: denim, suede and leathers, classic pinstripe cotton... with a touch of feminine lightness courtesy of silk crepe, lace and chiffon.
Because a girl is still entitled to her mood swings, no matter how fierce: a little variety courtesy of a colour palette that goes from browns and beiges to dirty whites 8where's the fun in looking immaculate?).

I honestly fail to see sense in Valentine's day if you're a day over 13-years-old. Single people use it as an excuse to complain about being single (all men are jerks and all girls are crazy and whatnot), and couples ignore it or use it as an excuse to invite single friends over for dinner and boast about their love.
