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.

Dressed Down #12: Going a la Gala

Soooo... guess what I got for Christmas? SYNDICATION, BABY! And so, to celebrate that and the coming New Year, I say we get totally FROCKED. UP!

I love doing cocktail. It's formal without going hard out, bad prom date. Today I'm going to give you two looks.

The first features a gorgeous little number from DOPPLEGANGER for the infamous One Eleven event (which is still on by the by - although I've no idea what is still available). The necklace is of course from PAPER COUTURE (can you tell I play favourites?) And finally a dash of class with some elbow length gloves from 5th & OXFORD.

The second ensemble is all about TEE*FY. I love this frock, especially the sequin detail in the skirt and the subtle shoulder detail. Plus how adorable is the TRAM fur stole? Christmas freebie for group members only (Go'on git it, gurl).

Just a heads up... The Dressing Room is having a Christmas Special at the moment... all designers have put out a new item AND rereleased some of their best sellers so check it out:

E.g. If you're after the dress from my Portobello Road ensemble, I'd hit up that SLURL.

FYI #5: Christmas Gifts 2010

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa la la la la la la la la...

Don't you just love Christmas time? The season for giving, love and all that crap. Seriously though, I am abit of a Christmas nut with a few traditions of my own:

1. Secret Santa stockings that are opened on Christmas Eve (we don't open all our presents in the Southern hemisphere till the actual day)
2. Watching the Polar Express AND Love Actually with the whole family
3. Posting a Christmas Gifts blog from herein.

Don't you just love tradition?

Dressed Down #11: Portobello Road

Showing alot of love for MILK MOTION lately, huh? I can't help it, Marie Lauridsen makes some incredible content. Plus I'm broke and having to rely on whatever's in my inventory, despite dying to splurge on new LELUTKA releases. Anyway, onward.

This is a summer inspired look, a vision of where I want to be and what I want to be doing - shopping in London on Portobello road. I was last there in August and my greatest purchase was nothing to do with fashion (although I did get some great stuff), rather I bought an 18th century edition of Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

And so, relying on little treasures, I hope you too are inspired to create a sensory ensemble out of your own inventory.

Hope you love it.

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!
