There’s three ways of looking at the coincidence that both Gidge and I chose the same clothing from Betty Doyle’s Ingenue to blog at the same time. One is that we’re boring and predictable bloggers. The second is that great minds think alike. The third is that Fabulous Is Fabulous and who can resist fabulous. Ingenue has produced high quality clothing as long as I have been in Second Life. In the beginning, Doyle focused on the niche vintage market, but her work over the last year has moved firmly into contemporary sportswear and separates that are flagrantly feminine. Take the top and skirt in this outfit. They were released about a month apart but there is such a cohesive vision behind the collection that Gidge and I both thought to combine them, though in different colors. That cohesive visions also makes the colors suitable for mixing and matching with just about everything.
Such springlike romanticism made me think of springs and fairies and unicorns and other delights so I headed off to the Unicorn Sanctuary. I know it looks like it’s nothing but sunshine, gentle dew and rainbows, but explore around some and you will see that Enchanted is a very spooky place in parts.
The Mon Tissu cardigan is like wearing a garden, except it’s warm, not wet and muddy and there are no earthworms.
Could there possibly be prettier shoes for spring than these Anna shoes from Donna Flora?
The back of this hat from Ingenue adds a darling cutaway for your hair and an even more darling bow.
The jewelry from Eclectica and EarthTones complement both the color and the floral motifs in the clothing while adding a bright touch. The hair from Dark Mouse worked so perfectly with the hat I didn’t have to adjust a single prim. The new Sarah skin from Tuli is as fresh and dewy as a spring morning and the bridal nails from TGIS are see-to-believe prim nails. They are hud operated to change the textures so you can have one pattern on two fingers and another on the other three digits. I am providing a link to their marketplace listing so you can see all the amazing options.
