Hopefully Spring

I swear I glimpsed a patch of blue sky today in jolly old England..yay! spring is coming.

To further encourage the half hearted English spring to sprung I chose to wear something spring like (well spring like in the UK means rain every other day instead of every day ).But I am ever hopeful and so ready for spring and summer this year, it's been a looooooong winter.

My dress is by Zenith and available at The Fashion Garret. This is a pretty dress and the sculptie parts work really well, there is a resize menu to accommodate all shapes and sizes.

I am a bit of a hat addict, any excuse and on one goes. This hair/hat combo is a past group gift from Anaphora, I am not sure if it is available still (L$50 join fee)

My sandals are from Skifija and are colour change (straps sole and jewel on the front) they are available both at the store and on The Markeplace (search Skifija).

Asia is wearing:

• Dress-Honey (Beige)-Zenith@The Fashion Garret
• Hair/Hat-Sofeea (Mocha)-Anaphora (group gift-check notices)
• Sandals-Lilith-Skifija
• Skin-Meggan-08-Unique Skins

Awww the tiny blue bit of sky went away probably scared to be alone with all the big grey clouds :(

Like Plaiting Fog

Happy Sunday Girls & Boys.

It's Taste of Second Life  time again,this weeks theme is 'Favourite Colours'

I ran right over to pick up Sassy Kitty's contribution to the event the Sassy Willow Skirt in Black. A great long skirt is a rare find in SL.

I read somewhere or someone once told me( not sure which), if you are showing a lot of leg keep your top half covered and visa versa. 

As the skirt covers my legs I thought it was time to bring out Asia's tummy (all those trips to the fake gym have really paid off)

 

I have been doing some serious inventory sorting the last couple of days and uncovered some forgotten treasures like the Glance 'Chanel' skin I am wearing.

The earrings are courtesy of the camping swing at  U&R DOGS, camp for 10 minutes I sorted some more inventory while I was waiting.

A new store to me RYCA provided me with my glasses and necklace,which matched the earrings perfectly.  The store is packed floor to ceiling with big bold inexpensive jewellery and some really great glasses, I will be back for sure.

It has been a very long time since I visited EMO-tions and it's usually not my style but I noticed the pulled back braids (or plaits as we call them in the UK) one quick demo later the hair found a happy home in my inventory.

Asia is wearing:

• Shirt- Beyonce Satin-Red-aDIVA-(Last day of closing/half price sale tomorrow)
• Skirt- Willow Skirt-Sassy Kitty (TOSL)
• Hair- * CASSIE *black-.:EMO-tions
• Skin-Chanel-Glance
• Earrings-Banbury Pierced Earrings-Silver-U&R DOGS (Camp for 10 minutes)
• Glasses- LS Black/Silver-RYCA
• Necklace-L-STAR Platinum-RYCA

 Back to inventory sorting I go.

LOTD-Pink Punk

Modelling the latest creation from Gia Pawpad at Loq, hair that defies even SL gravity.

As soon as I saw the pink poncho I had to hustle over to The Dressing Room, pink is not really my colour but something about this caught my eye. I teamed it with the simple pants in black and high heeled pink boots.

I had forgotten I had these eyes they are by HAYSURIZA and include a hud to change the size of the pupil and how 'teary' they look also you can wear one blue eye and one green. I tpd to the store but could not see (no pun intended) the eyes for sale now.

I am wearing a past TDR skin, Dahlia from Dekade and a tattoo layer lipstick from Glamorize.

The earrings are different in the pics because I crashed and SL decided to eat one of my earrings so I had to change to another pair.

 

Asia is wearing:

• Hair-Grappa Pieva, Jet Black-LoQ
• Skin-Dahlia_sunkissed-Dekade (past TDR item)
• Lipgloss- Juicy Babe Lips - Pinkmauve-Glamorize
• Poncho-MATTORI poncho /HONEYSUCKLE-The Dressing Room
• Pants-The Editor Pant - black liquorice-PO
• Boots-Chasseur Boots, pink suede-Indyra Originals
• Earrings- Passion-[ glow ] Studio   (really old hunt gift)
• Earrings- Pearl Flower + Heart Earrings-CentoPallini (3rd Pic)
• Lashes-19- Diva-Redgrave
• Eyes-Natural_Eye-Creator listed as Hays Uriza

..and it's way past my bed time

There are stacks of cute and inexpensive things available on the Marketplace. I also picked up the bracelet from Edgegrafica.

p.s just noticed something funky is going on with the formatting, hmmm I will try to sort that out later.

If you want to get ahead, get a hat

Kyoot are going out of the hair business it seems. There are a couple of styles available, I demoed this a while ago and thought it was kind of cute, but not something I would wear much, fast forward to today add in a reduced price(50L$-one colour) and hey presto Asia has another cute hat/hair combo, the hair comes with three different coloured hats, but I recoloured it to match my old Callie Cline belt.

My all in one, jumpsuit, romper thingy was free at Mimi's Choice, its by Connors and can be found in one of the bags laying around the store, I really like the simplicity of this look.

YS&YS..Oh Yes!

I catapulted myself to Your Skin & Your Shape when I received the sale notice, this trip I succumbed to only the Glow Bangles in gold and black, at 90L$ a pop I will be back for more, I teamed these with the Afrika necklace (group gift a while ago)

The trousers are one of the go to items in my inventory, they are from Jill and I think they were a freebie, as was the !Ohmai body suit.

I am a recent Kalnins convert, in my opinion they are some of the nicest shoes available. I am wearing "Yolanda".

Favourite skin of the moment is LAQ Aline and Lamb Ghost finishes my LOTD.

See you tomorrow
