I will be happy to see the end of this September. It has been an eventful month, one that seems to be unbalanced by a shortage of good news. It made me think of this Green Day song that suits my mood.

I am a firm believer, though, in the power of dressing to cheer yourself up and this tunic from LouLou&Co for Marquis Market is definitely a cheer yourself up fabric.

These Bolt leggings carry the same color theme as the top but in a wild modernistic print that offers a lovely contrast with the traditional folk print of the top.

You can see the stunning details in the top in this shot – while also admiring manicurist Sasy Scarborough’s handiwork. Yes, terrible pun. I am sorry.

These dramatic sandal wedges from MiaMai are beautifully textured and come with several options in wood for the platforms.

A fun pop art set of jewelry from Donna Flora add a bit of zest and a hint of a smile. The free-flowing hair is from Truth and lays beautifully in nearly every pose.

Belleza’s gorgeous new skin release Leila has a soft vulnerability that adds an emotional depth to my avatar. It comes with an additional pack of lip tattoos, but I went for the subtle look to contrast with the bright color of my outfit.

I don’t know if the outfit cheered me up completely, but it did make me fee a little happier.
