Dressed Down #10: Purple Laze

I love shopping. I do. So with my RL christmas shopping absolutely blitzed today in under 3 hours, I decided to take that energy and catch up on some new releases this week.

I love the phenomena of limited release groups, i.e. FIFTY LINDEN FRIDAYS, PROJECT THEMEORY and THE STUMBLEBUM BRIGRADE. Today's ensemble features the MILK MOTION releases for the latter. If you like it well made, cheap and fairly exclusive, I'd be checking out these groups.

Hope you love it!

Dressed Down #9: Chilly Bunny

Well I'm back behind the desk, having celebrated my friends' graduation in RL yesterday! Woot! So because I'm still recovering, I'm having to rely on an old ensemble to get me through the day.

Featured in this post are my two favourite One Eleven items. You've already become acquainted with my Surf Co. boots, but I was also lucky enough to have purchased Anya Ohmai's cute sweater. Together they make a snug winter ensemble for a day on the pond, perhaps?

Dressed Down #8: Wintour Nouveau

Revisiting an old favourite, in homage to the famed Vogue editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour. ARMIDI pretty much makes up my staple of go-to basics, I am distressed that there will be no more new releases and that the designer's new venture is taking so long to come out, if at all. Anywho, this is my reinvented, Wintour 2.0.

I'd heard of Pixel Mode a while back (I even own a prefab) but I'd never really dabbled in their clothes and accessories, until my roomie Dai, introduced me to the glorious Baby T's *squeee!*
I fear readers, that this is not the last you'll hear of them, even if they are a dated article.

Hope you love it!

Dressed Down #7: Flared Blues

This is alittle bit 60's retro but I love the silhouette. Believe it or not, I started this ensemble with some of the latest releases from MAITREYA (Natalie hair and Moxie shoes). Not sure how I wound up with this as an end result, but there you go.

I love the textures of both IZUYAMI's cardigan and the woollen feel of R.ICIELLI's pants. I rarely get to indulge in winterwear this time of year, so SL is quite a nice escape from Sydney's heat and play fashion model. Expect more winter ensembles from me, this season!

Finally, another cute highlight are the nail colours from TRES BLAH. I'm not a huge fan of prim nails, especially fitting them and most nail glove layers simply annoy me as they seem to not cover the nail bed featured on most skins, but Juliette seems to have nailed this (get it? heh, heh...yeah-.-). The fatpack comes in cute pastels and some solid basics.

Catch your groove, ladies!

Dressed Down #6: Vogue It

I'm going to be honest... I've no idea what that title means.

Moving on. Here's a mixture of some old and some new additions to my inventory. A look for a windswept afternoon in town. Quick note, the jacket is an old favourite from HPMD that I've modded alittle to be shorter.

PS Yeah, the boots are from the One Eleven event... I regret nothing!

FYI #4: Grand Sim Opening Of LULA

I can barely contain myself. Some of the grid's best and brightest have banded together to not only open a new sim, but bring forth a new brand. Lula is now home to Lamb, Turnip's, Tres Blah and lovechild of Juliette Westerburg and Emma Gilmour, their shabby chic new brand, Mon Tissu.

Not only is the sim gorgeous (for all you SL shutterbugs), but the entire collection is disgusting...ly good. Come payday, I'm afraid I may have to fatpack it all. But for now, here's a quick glance.

FYI #3: One 11 Event! Nov 26 - Jan 11

Blegh... bad Vitt!

Ok, I know, I know, I'm awful. BUT this one had to make it to the blog. The One Eleven event, an exercise in exclusivity, is on now for a limited time only. Be one of 111 to grab the limited edition designs from some of the biggest names on the grid.

This is just one of the many things I picked up. But don't worry, the rest will be featured soon... gotta milk my money's worth, right?
