Monica here, my darlings โ Volume 9 of our Thursday ritual! Nine weeks. Twenty-seven cars. Twenty-seven skirts. Zero repeats โ the streak is now older than some of my shoes. ๐
This week I went full retro-future: machines that look like they escaped from a poster on my wall in 1985 and a concept lab in 2035 โ all in one gallery. A wedge-shaped legend reborn, a Formula 1 engine with license plates, and the hybrid heir to the fastest throne on Earth. And the skirts? Three fabrics that have NEVER appeared in this series: sequins, tweed bouclรฉ, and holographic foil. Buckle up, darlings โ past, present, and future all showed up dressed to kill. ๐โก
Outfit: Icy mint-green sequin mini skirt ยท White silk bandeau crop top ยท Silver metallic strappy stilettos ยท Oversized silver hoops ยท Diamond tennis bracelet ยท Soft glossy waves
Golden hour on the show lawn, and parked beside me is the loudest piece of nostalgia on four wheels: the pearl white Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 โ the wedge icon reborn with a hybrid V12, that legendary scissor door raised overhead like a wing. It's 1985's wildest poster dream rebuilt with 2026 physics. ๐ฎ๐น๐
And for the FIRST TIME in nine volumes: sequins. An icy mint sequin mini skirt that scatters the low sun with every shift of my hip โ thousands of tiny mirrors answering the car's pearl flake. A white silk bandeau keeps it clean up top, silver metallic stilettos echo the Countach's phone-dial-era wheels, and a diamond bracelet does the delicate work. One hand on that famous wedge fender, weight on one hip, glancing back over my shoulder with a "your dad had me on his wall too" smile. Retro never looked this forward. ๐๐ฅ
Outfit: White tweed bouclรฉ mini skirt with frayed hem & gold buttons ยท Black silk bralette crop top ยท Cropped tweed jacket over one shoulder ยท Nude strappy stilettos ยท Pearl drop earrings ยท Gold chain-link belt ยท Sleek low bun
Inside a futuristic white showroom with a mirror-polished floor floats the obsidian black Mercedes-AMG ONE โ a literal Formula 1 power unit with license plates, active rear wing, and the posture of a laboratory predator. Affalterbach only built 275. Racing engineering you can actually drive home. ๐ฉ๐ช๐ค
What do you wear next to a street-legal race car? Race-day chic, darling. The first tweed in series history: a white bouclรฉ mini with a frayed hem and gold buttons, paired with a black silk bralette for the danger, and the matching cropped jacket slung off one shoulder like I just walked out of the paddock club. Pearl drop earrings, a gold chain belt, hair in a sleek low bun โ one manicured finger tracing that carbon rear fender, chin lifted, smile playful. Old-money fabrics, new-money machine. The AMG ONE and my tweed agree: heritage is just future with better manners. ๐คโจ
Outfit: Holographic iridescent foil mini skirt ยท Black leather bustier crop top ยท Chrome-accented platform stilettos ยท Chunky silver chain necklace ยท Chrome statement earrings ยท Loose soft waves
The night meet goes electric โ wet asphalt glowing magenta and electric-blue โ and presiding over it all sits the French-blue Bugatti Tourbillon, the hybrid heir to the fastest throne in existence. 1,800+ horses, a cockpit like a Swiss watch, and that glowing horseshoe grille staring into your soul. The future of speed just parked on my street. ๐ซ๐ทโก
So I dressed as the future too: the series' first holographic foil mini, shifting silver-blue-lilac with every move like liquid light โ basically the Tourbillon's paint code for irresistible. A black leather bustier keeps the night dangerous, chrome platform sandals catch the neon, and a chunky silver chain ties it all to the car's chrome hardware. Hand on that sculpted rear haunch, hip cocked, eyes locked on the lens โ two impossible machines glowing in the dark, and only one of us needs a key. ๐๐
Nine volumes. Twenty-seven cars. Twenty-seven skirts. The streak is basically a family heirloom now. ๐
