Catch Me In the Slipstream

Today I am wearing clothes from some of the best design houses in Second Life – Casa del Shai, Maitreya and Tesla – and it shows.  It’s gold, babe.

Some people never recognise it
Though it’s right before their eyes
And shines in all its glory
They never ever see
They choose something that looks just like it
And it may glitter all the time
But gold it will never be
I guess you never held on to quality
Or you woulda recognised by now
Something so special so true
When it’s standing right in front of you

I’m gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don’t know
Pure gold babe
You’re looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn’t let go.

The colors are orange, mustard and bronze – a wonderfully warm melange of color. The Casa del Shai Volpe shirt in orange satin, the Maitreya High-Waisted skirt in a mustard raw silk and the Tesla Kensington boots in bronze leather are all rich in saturated colors and textures.  That bit of orange peeking below the skirt is the orange tights from the CKS Amarantine outfit.

The makeup is from PXL Creations – the luscious Grace skin with coffee lips and cat eyes this time. The hair is also from Maitreya and the earrings are the wonderful color-changing Bubble earrings from Miriel.

I’m gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don’t know
Pure gold babe
You’re looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn’t let go.

    Absolutely wonderful! Unless the runways are right and Eighties padded shoulders are coming back, any RL businesswoman or lawyer could not go wrong wearing this. And, since we know that there are at least some business meetings going on occasionally…. It just shows, classic taste and lines never go out of style.
