Chantkari's In The Dressing Room

Took a flying visit to The Dressing Room Blue yesterday and looked no further than this vibrant dress from Chantkari for a steal at $70L. 

Having just purchased the 'Night Coffee' hair on sale from Vanity Hair, I couldn't go past crazy locks with colorful boho style.

Take a look a these fabulous suede gloves from Celoe in 'Rust'.  The earrings, array of bangles and necklace are amazing jewelery pieces from Maylo Designs.  One of the favorite bags I own is the 'Old Batik Indi'  from Baiastice that I bring out at every opportunity.

Overall, I love my zany take on the Chantkare 'Maje' dress finishing off with my blue leggings from Tee*fy and my Pascal Sock shoes from Leverocci.   I'm wearing Linn Skin from Glam Affair with a freckle tattoo from the Daphne Skin range at Glance (designer Ava Grau - no LM available for some reason)..

If You Leave Me, Can Me And My New Dress Come Too?

I love a good, quality freebie and this dress called 'Froufrou In Bloom' designed by Maylee Oh from The Secret Store is no exception.  You can purchase it at Modavia 11 where The Secret Store has a, well store.  You just need to join the Modavia Marketing Group - click on the sign in front of the dress.  Click on the dress and it's yours...for FREE.  And babies, it's a great dress.  Vibrant, well constructed with a gorgeous leather belt, its a versatile addition to your collection.  I'd pay for it in a blink of an eye but, it's FREE.

I did a bit of skin shopping too and couldn't resist Emilia Redgrave's new Pale skin called Bella.  Seriously great value at only $1490L for 10 skins, prim and tattoo teeth, 6 lipstick colors, eyes, lashes, breast minimizer and some jewelery thrown in for good measure.  I've always been partial to a Redgrave skin and I love Bella on Cha.  Look at my cute little Bucky Beaver's - teeth don't ya know.

I had to bring out my beloved Leverocci 'Paccai Sock shoes in Oil' ($800L) with color change socks.  Tell me these aren't amazing?  I think they look great with my 'Criminal Tights' from Nemesis ($130L).

The Wood bangle and choker is a gift from Fishy Strawberry and the watch is from Cashmere and Keane for $80L.  The ring you see was included with the Bella skin.  I am loving this new do from LeLutka called 'Wilde' ($269L) shown here in the Marilyn color.  I thought I'd seen nearly everything from Thora Charron but her hair just keeps on thrilling me and the 'Sekai' floral barrette from Indyra Originals suits this style so well (I think this was a giftie from the Modavia 11 sim but my memory is dim).

Quite a while ago, I discovered the fabulous eye-wear at primOptic and I purchased 'Celeste' ($299L).  You can wear them on the nose or head, color the frames and change the opacity of the lenses.  Stunning glasses and a range to make your head spin.  My old faithful sculpted nails are from Pixel Mode ($300L) and while I have an inventory full of nails, I never take these off.  My bag is made by Fancy Scrabbleblat but her profile is hidden so I can't give a link to a store. Eyes ($150L)  from Fashism.

Leverocci and Mimikri Work For Me!

Take one AMAZING mesh skirt from Leverocci and add some Mimikri magic to make two different looks.

I just couldn't be happier about the end result of this look.  The stunningly patterned and textured mesh skirt from Leverocci is so clever in its construction and has a satin sheen.  Available in XXS, XS, S, M and L, there's a size for most figures and costs only $150L.  I wanted to bring out the soft blue in the skirt and found the Fur Stole (faux of course) at Mimikri for $200L.  Its dreamy to say the least and the satin bow at the waist pulls it all together.  I also found the Black Sweater with uber bell bottom sleeves at Mimikri for $250L.  I love the form.

There's some weird stuff going on in the fashion world atm.  I don't really know what because I don't use any of the social networking site's in my SL anymore and they often give you the good oil on what's happening in the zoo.  With a new blog that's just hit town of the expose kind and some strange comments over at Agency Report, I'm beginning to wonder if some of you have gone bonkers. Seriously sweeties....while I'm all for a little ego stroking SL fling if that's your wish, apart from a few genuine relationships that make it through the labyrinth of obstacles and transcend into RL, I hope you realize there's some danger in putting all your eggs into a basket that doesn't really exist.  Maybe it's all role play and I'm the one out of sync, but I've seen a lot of people spill tears while role playing if that's the case.  Ask yourself this.  Do you deserve real hands giving you real hugs?  If so, don't accept anything less.
