Recollection

Check out the stunning necklace and earrings from Baiastice at The Liaison Collaborative. These are truly statement pieces and you only have a couple of days left to grab them at the event before it closes on March 30.

A few days ago I promised a closer look at the latest fedora from JfL Hats, and here it is. The texture of the suede just makes me want to run my fingers across it, then smooth it back down. This is, once again, the bright pink, but all of the hats in this release are lighter colours than the usual JfL pallete. They are perfect for the ladies, but will still work great for the guys. Do go check them out – they are new releases at the main store.

As I was scrolling through my JfL Hats folder to find this photo, I realised that I have been blogging for John for almost four years. He is the designer I have blogged for the longest. He has believed in me – stuck with me – as I have slowly become a bit better at blogging. OK, I can say easily that I have become a better photographer during that time. I don’t actually have the first photo I blogged for JfL – those images were stored on a back up hard drive that sadly failed – but the images I have go back to October of 2013. And I know I was blogging for JfL Hats for a few months before that. Looking through those images, I smiled, I cringed and laughed out loud at my efforts.

All in all, it was a lovely recollection.

Romantically Metallic

1-romantically-metallic-sm

Buckle up for this round of The Liaison Collaborative, running from February 7-30. Romatically Metallic is the theme, and it is sparkling and divine. Almost everything I’m wearing is from this event.

While I love the earrings and hair, the lipstick and eye shadows from Izzie’s will definitely make it into my regular rotation. But my favourite item is the glasses from The Plastik. With a texture-change HUD for the frame, the diamonds and the lenses, they are chic, funky and fun. Must have stuff!

A note on my pose. I was planning on using the “I” pose from {NANTRA}‘s ASL I Love You pose set. This is a set of poses for Bento hands that spells out I Love You in American Sign Language. When I decided to try a different pose (from an lar [poses]), I didn’t step off of the pose stand that comes with the ASL set. While my body pose changed, my hands retained the ASL sign for “I”. So I accidentally created a hybrid pose that I really liked.

The round has just begun, so be sure to add TLC to your calendar. You will want to check out all of the romantically metallic prettiness at this event.
