VUI is new to me, a store I found across the street from another shop I was at. Wandering outside a great shop is a good way to find more and that’s what happened this time. I am a slacker, though, when I saw the style of clothing I sent LMs to a couple friends and one of them has already blogged the store twice! Sadly, she has deleted her blog so I cannot give you the link.

I already said I like polka dots yesterday, but just to drive that home, look at this lovely cocktail dress from VUI. Now, it takes a completely different approach to dots – but one that’s equally valid and also manages to produce a look that is both cute and elegant. Two looks that can often be achieved alone, but not as often achieved together. The dots are cute and so is the skirt pouf, but the smaller size of the dots and longer length of the skirt add elements of elegance.  A dress to make me really happy.

Here you can see more clearly how elegant the silhouette of this dress is, particularly when paired with the lovely Plat Bijou pumps from Baiastice.

The lines of the bodice really call for a bold necklace and that’s what the Kungler’s Bromelia give us. Seeing how she used the snake-chain to emulate a bromeliad is just brilliant. The hair is from !lamb and again combines what is usually cute (a ponytail) with the very elegant pompadour bangs. Yummy!

I love the new IFE skin from Lelutka.  It’s full of very practical and wearable makeups and a flattering and less austere face than earlier Lelutka skins.
