I Want to be a Bond Girl


I'm possibly some form of a feminist, (the definition varies from one lunch table to the next in the cafeteria) but I love James Bond movies. Despite the fact that many of the Bond girls are disposable sex objects, I want to be a Bond girl. I just finished watching one of the older films, Thunderball, and I am envious of Domino's wardrobe and impressed by her guts. How did Domino keep her cool knowing that Largo might discover her true intentions, never mind the possibility that she might expose herself in that mesh maillot? If you're up to the task of braving the beach in mesh, here are two Gottex options. For those of us who have less guts at the moment, there are mesh heels at asos.com and a beautiful dress with mesh detail by Cynthia Rowley in her Spring 09 collection.
