52 Weeks of Colour-Periwinkle!

I was scratching my head over what to wear for this weeks challenge. I thought it would possibly be something soft as we are stepping into pastel colours this week. I first tried to put together something slightly more edgy using periwinkle which ended in a total fail.

It wasn't until I attended a SL wedding over the weekend (which was lovely btw) I got my idea.

While waiting for the lag to allow the bride to tp in I had one eye on TV.  Kate and William's upcoming nuptials were being discussed ( and how much it was costing) I thought hey if it's got to be pastel and girlie why not go the whole nine yards with the ultimate girlie dress. I was also pondering  the amount of L$'s some people spend on their special SL day.

In keeping with my frugalista manifesto (and the fact I am not getting SL married anytime soon) I utilised some items I already had and some bits and bobs from The Marketplace.


The dress was 25L$ ,the short veil was free and part of a wedding dress package, the bouquet was a dollarbie and the long veil is part of a fancy dress costume which doesn't seem to be available now, I looked and couldn't find it.

Asia is wearing:
  • Dress-Nardya's Hallucination in Ice-Phoenix Rising@The Marketplace
  • Long Veil-part of the 'Southern Belle'costume from Crushed Velvet (no longer available)
  • Short Veil-Marinoco Wedding Gown (only veil worn)-Marketplace
  • Bouquet-Wearable red rose bouquet-Marketplace
  • Hair-Hair 66-Pack A-W&Y (Old item)
  • Hair Decoration-37 flower  white (part of hair 37) W&Y (another really old item not sure of it's availability)
  • Pearls-Triple White Pearl Strand Necklace-Dark Mouse

Happy Belated Easter! and Good Luck to William and Kate this Friday.
