The Star Of The Show

There really isn’t any point in showing more of me; the Dana flats with leg warmers by fri.day are the star of the show. Such a cozy, comfy and fashionable pair of shoes should be a staple in every girl’s wardrobe. Available at Kustom9 in March, the shoes come in a wide choice of colours and the leg warmers are texture-change. Exclusive to Maitreya Lara, if you’ve got that body, you need these shoes.

I am loving the Bohemian Delight house from NOMAD from the March Deco(c)rate. The colours are so me and I had an absolute ball decorating it. I filled it with lots of pretty things from around the grid, and do please take note of the rug I am standing on. Kean Kelly has more or less filled the [ keke ] main store with a variety of beautifully muted carpets. Pile them up or use one in every room, under every chair, table and bed. They’re worth it and you won’t be able to stop at one. I am showing one of the trellis designs, but there are two other collections that are just as delightful.

So maybe, just maybe, there is more than one star of this show.

Dangerous Curves

1-suit-up-sm

If you are like me, the thought of putting on a jumpsuit in real life is akin to having my skin peeled from my body with tweezers, after being dipped in boiling hot oil. There is nowhere to hide once that Lycra slides over your thighs and no amount of gut-sucking-in can make that once-flat tummy behave like it was eighteen again!

That, however, is not an issue in Second Life, where your curves are as generous as you choose and no matter what you put on, you look fabulous. That holds true for the Suit Up jumpsuit by Apple May Designs for the current round of The Seasons Story. The plunging neckline draws attention to not only your cleavage, but drags the eye to your perfectly nipped waist. And that Apple Bottom is in evidence in this outfit – not something to miss!

Those features alone make this worthy of your Lindens, but my favourite part of this jumpsuit, by far, is how the cuffs slide down into the heel of my shoe with the absolute perfect wrinkles. Oh, did I mention the shoes???? They are conveniently called the Suit Up Heels and are designed to work perfectly with this jumpsuit. They are also from Apple May Designs, found alongside the jumpsuit at The Seasons Story.

You are guaranteed to stop traffic in this number, so you had best avoid rounding dangerous curves!

Town & Country

1 Evergreen Nook 1

Just when you have wound down from shopping at the early events of the month, it’s time to gear up for Shiny Shabby and My Attic @ The Deck. There are loads of goodies at both events, and I took the opportunity to take a few of them out for a spin.

My destination was a lovely sim called Evergreen Nook. It is all decked out for autumn with a very rustic feel, so it complimented the Town & Country theme of My Attic this round. My skirt from K-CODE, earrings and bracelet from Cae and shoes from Essenz are all from this event, and I found perfect compliments from Shiny Shabby with my scarf from Apple May Designs and pose from !bang. They’re all reasons to get up in the morning and get out and about!

1 Evergreen Nook 2

You can see the scarf and accessories better in this photo. The scarf is unisex, so you can pick up a matching set for you and your significant other.

Head into town to do a little shopping then make your way to the country to enjoy the lovely autumn weather.
