The inspiration for this outfit comes from the lovely build that CJ Carnot made for the new Tête à Pied sim. It is a gorgeous french station, in the best neo classical tradition with high walls and ciseled pillars. As a matter of fact… I think it is the only space I know in SL where I am not that bothered with the sound of heels clicking, as your heels would make the same echoing sound in a similar RL station…. enough… or I’m going off topic. Anyway, it is reminiscent of the luxury train traveling of the 30’s, and this outfit matches the feeling of that.

The cloche is Siyu Suen’s entry for the EFA Design Awards that I fell immediately and madly in love with and the shoes.. omg the shoes… everyone has been drooling all over Stiletto Moody’s scultped shoes lately… but personally I was not that impressed when I saw them and I think the price is ridiculous. These are made by Storm Schmooz and they are at least as good as Moody’s and they cost only a fraction of the foresaid.

It’s a pattern…. have you noticed? I am hooked on plaid this season. And here is yet another plaid based outfit. I just think it is such a cozy yet elegant look. The skirt also comes in green, and when I TP’d back jusy now to check on the price I saw similar plain skirts too in white and deep brown. Very Lovely. The skin, although not yet released, is something special. For all you freckle fans out there, this skin has the softest freckles all over the body. Other skins I have seen so far don’t have that (unless they are mod and you use the system freckles)

This look popped in my head when I received a group message from Lyra Muse that she had some limited in time boots out at Last Call. They are very holidayish… with the white fur trim (the boots come in green, black and silver too) so I wanted to pair them with a slightly more day to day look.. after all.. we’re getting close, but it ain’t X-mas yet. Last week when I found the scarf and waistcloth at Creamshop, I just HAD to have them, but until now they were idling in my inventory. I think they are doing really well together, the boots and the plaids.

Happy anniversary to the Calla Ladies, Tigerlily Koi and Haedon Quine. I was over at their group preview party and grabbed some of their latest hairstyles. It was a fun, laid back afternoon with some of the most ardent Calla fans present. I am not hard core Calla… but I have always loved their work. My first “real” hair was Calla. So while I was checking out Lucerne, this outfit was kinda “born”. Roslin by Dakota Buck is one of the most stylish outfits available on the grid. I made the grey one slightly darker and paired it with the lovely Poet Blouse. To be able to wear both Fallingwater Cellardoor’s necklace and the neck ruffle of the blouse, I reattached the ruffle to the spine and adjusted it. Speaking of Fally… that new set she has out is truly awesome. With a click on the jewelry a menu appears and you can choose of 11 different gems for your set. Shoes and Skin are Tête à Pied’s. I love the meticulous prim work from CJ Carnot on these shoes. Mind you.. these are traditional prims, not sculpties and the skin.. do I really have to explain why I like it so much? It’s just delicious… the deep smokey eyes. Inspired after Shai Delacroix’ recent lingerie creation binge, but I just love it with real clothes on too.
