Dressed Down #19: Daily Elle

My small homage to THE supermodel in the world (I'm not biased at all) - Elle Macpherson as spotted by the Daily Mail a couple of days ago. I loved that this is what she wears to pick up her kids.

Point of interest, hot new boots from GOS. These are rather innovative for their scripted brilliance. There are three heel choices (Stiletto, Chunky & Wedge) and you can purchase different colour coats for a lesser price than the cost of the boots. Brilliance.

Now start walking!

Décor #1: My Own Home!

Now, I don't just shop for clothes in SL - furniture and decor have a very special place in my heart. So when I'm not splurging my lindens on clothes, I'm usually house hunting or looking for knick knacks to add to the home I share with my dear friend Dailyn Holfe.

Thus, I present a short mini-series of posts based around the spaces in our home (just so this doesn't turn into a monster post). We live in one of my favourite prefabs of all time, the wonderful Port Eynon Skybox by Trace Osterham's THEOSOPHY. Whilst I love open plan builds, I did modify the skybox a tiny bit just to define the spaces a bit more (more of which you'll see in the posts to come).

So first up, the formal lounge. Enjoy!

Dressed Down #18: Totes Vintage

New LULA releases are becoming a serious day-maker for me. Featured below are just a small sampling of the new releases from MON TISSU and LAMB.

I felt like being a little girly after all the butt kicking yesterday. I'm quite picky with jewellery in SL (still mourning the loss of MUSE), particularly pearl, so I'm including some of my favourite pearl pieces from WHIPPET & BUCK, DECO and ZAARA.

To top it off, a DISGUSTINGLY gorgeous top from FASHIONABLY DEAD, a fabulous bag from ADDICT and a cute ribbon from TOKI DOKI. C'est beau, non?

Dressed Down #17: DOA?

Sorry I've been MIA lately, friends. I've been kind of... blah. Thankfully I have friends to distract me with shopping, gossip, movies... zombie massacres?

It's not uncommon for a group of us to get dolled up and go out and try some of the many activities available in-world. I wasn't going to blog this but my dear roomie Dai thought I should. So it's a little different, but I hope you all like it.

Some incredible new releases from THE ABYSS made me revisit this older edition of a complete avatar still available in-store. I paired with some ARMIDI shorts, KOOKIE boots and a pair of BRUTAL .357 magnums for a Lara Croft inspired ensemble.

Kick ass!

Dressed Down #16: Reality Bytes

Hi5! for the cheesy pun? No? Ok. Moving on.

This is a rather simple ensemble but I was excited by the fact that it is pretty much identical to an outfit in my RL wardrobe. I was ecstatic to come by these shorts from the talented Kianna Noel of ADDICT. The design is modelled on a previous jeans release she did for LELUTKA. Never fear, dear readers, she will be releasing both items very soon.

This is about as heavy handed as I go with accessories, in order to dress up the look a bit more. The necklace by WHIPPET & BUCK is one of a number of cute re-releases from last year's Jewellery Fair.

By the by, exciting new post type coming up soon! Keep a weary eye out!

Dressed Down #15: Budget Boho

Lately I've been feeling a bit lazy... just wanting to chill and hangout and not put any real effort into anything (except blogging of course).

So this is my 'thrown together' bit. I'm a very recent buyer of EXILE hairs and I thought this one was especially cute.

Sadly the clutch is a former 'gatcha' item from a previous ALBERO fair, so I tried not to feature it too prominently. Keep an eye out for those, I am forever picking up cute little knick knacks there.

Dressed Down #14: Little Girl Lost

So much newness my budget can't handle it. First up is this sculpty phenomenon from TRAM. I paired it with a cute dress from TINY BIRD that I've been dying to blog. Not to mention ELIKATIRA's adorable new hair release. And of course, my favourite boots of the moment from MIEL.

Sadly I'm too much of a DUTCH TOUCH skin devotee to change but ILLUSORY has released a new line of skins. I picked up the antlers. I'm sorry. Too much change scares me. But be sure to check it all out for yourself.

NB: A note on wearability, due to the nature of sculpts and movement, these garments will sometimes cut through each other. If this doesn't bother you all that much, happy shopping!

Dressed Down #13: Equestrian Debutante

I've been itching for the new Lelutka releases for a while now and finally managed to snag some swag. I've paired down the military glam look for something a bit more traditional for the races.

Point of interest, MIEL's 'Lia' boots which are colour-changeable for a very reasonably price in my opinion. It's essentially a fatpack for cheap!

Finally, perhaps my favourite article in the ensemble... EPOQUE's fascinator. Flawless.

FYI #7: Doppleganger Grand Opening!

For those who adore some chic basics to mix and match. I'd been waiting all week for the opening, ducked into the party, grabbed all that would rezz and immediately dashed home. And now it's off to the Illusory opening (what a busy weekend!)

Now get! And shop till you drop.
