vintage hit & miss - tights & long knit sweater

Once a week we will reintroduce clever fashion statements from the years gone by, and we'd like to know what you think? A hit or a miss? Inspiration or a death sentence? This week's hit or miss is a long knit sweater style dress, teamed up with tights and cowboy boots. I just love the contrast, but it is probably a miss from me. Maybe if it was a longer jumper, a different coloured belt, chocolate brown tights, and different shoes. Do you smell a chicken? :P
