Nya's Made A Beautiful Outfit In The Name 'Donna Flora'.


When I went to fabulous Nya's shop the other day, I was drawn to this outfit as you walk in the doors.  When I discovered it was called 'Donna Flora', well that made it even more special.  I still think of her.  The image of her on video singing 'Wonderful World' is ingrained on my memory knowing that her lovely face and voice has left this physical world.  But as we all know, her legacy lives on in our minds and in our inventories.  I thought what a lovely thing to do, create a beautiful outfit in her name.

Contained in the folder is the top, belt, skirt and shoes.  All amazing pieces in their own right.  I chose the orange colored outfit because this color symbolizes happiness to me.


I hunted high and low for an orange bag that would be the best match for this outfit and after TP'ing for an hour, did a check on Marketplace and found it at the Vendetta store on Marketplace.  The strings of color change pearls are from Maxi Gossamer.  The hair is Diva's contribution to Collabor88, a lovely curly wurly do in the color Moonstone.


The wedge sandals that come with the dress are so lovely.  All in all, I am so happy to wear this outfit knowing that the inspiration for it was one and only Donna Flora.  Such a beautiful person is surely up in heaven dressing those with no style :-)

Softly Does It.


G'day darlings.  Just before I completed this post I went to the American Cancer Society's memorial gardens in SL to place a candle and lay some flowers for Squinternet.  I'm ashamed to say I didn't know it existed but what a wonderful place to remember those who have departed this world and SL.  So many faces lined the walls but how lovely that one can visit them to reminisce.

Today I've put together a soft casual look in beige and coral tones.  I actually purchased the pants a little while ago from NuDoLu and kept them aside to blog when I found a top that I liked.  I found it at Collabor88 as ur.favorite.one's contribution called 'Steal My Boyfriend's Shirt'.


I remembered my recent purchase of this bag from Zenith and thought it would work well.  I'm loving these bangles from Je Suis called 'Vintage Bangles' and they're color change to boot.



I love these unique pants called 'Pantalon antique de mamie' in Beige.


The shoes are from Faenzo called 'Eleganza' and are designed to wear with Slink Womens Medium Rigged Barefeet (the tippy toe ones).  Aren't they gorgeous?  You can find Faenzo's products on Marketplace.

Well I had an early winner for my Cha's Flash Fash Cash Comp who identified herself and kindly asked me to donate the $1000L prize money to a charity.  I chose The People's Dispensary for Sick Animals (PDSA) where you can donate at Gos shoes.  Thank you so much AnneJoy, that was lovely of you.  Stay tuned for another round real soon.
