  1. congratulations, I hope you go on to become the winner! You probably do not know just what it is they are looking for since this is your first time, but doing something unique and clever catches their eye as well as immaculate construction… and you have all of these traits! So good luck.

  2. Well… at first I was a little taken aback! But you know – this is really clever! Just from the picture it looks like it will go really well with the A-line skirt. Dad says: “you don’t wear a skirt to ride a bike!”, but who needs a bike? This is fashion.
