Just Because I Can!!! - Deborah Harry!!!

Daily Mail

It's not the Seventies anymore! Debbie Harry tries to roll back the decades in a headband and wacky printed shorts



She was a style icon during the late Seventies and early Eighties as the lead singer of Blondie. 
But it seems Debbie Harry’s fashion sense seems to be getting more off-beat with age. 
The 67-year-old star opted for a rather quirky outfit for a stroll in New York City yesterday.

She stepped out in the East Village area with some friends and stood out amongst her companions as she donned a bright ensemble.
 
She pulled back her trademark blonde tresses with the help of a red rope-style headband which coordinated with her long cap sleeve top and printed shorts.
The fashion item – which featured several clashing patterns - fell above the knees to reveal the singer’s legs.

Her chunky high heels helped to give her limbs a more flattering appearance.
She also showed off her arms in the plain top which she layered up with a white vest underneath and matched her sunglasses to.
Her hard-to-pull-off style may have suited someone several decades younger but left Debbie looking as if she was trying too hard to be youthful.
Trying to look young? She showed off her smooth limbs in the outfit and wore chunky high heels with her clothing

The psychedelic style was hardly the right choice for one of the most iconic female rockers in history who should be embracing her years of experience.
Despite releasing their first album in 1976, Blondie, which comprises Debbie as well as Chris Stein, Clem Burke, Leigh Foxx, Matt Katz-Bohen and Tommy Kessler, are still going strong.
Their ninth studio album, Panic of Girls, was released in 2011 and they even proved popular enough to grace to UK music festival scenes last year.

  1. I doubt she was trying to look youthful, more likely she was just trying to be comfortable. She's entitled to be comfortable just like the rest of us and shouldn't be criticized for doing so.
