I stopped by Orchid yesterday. What a lovely place to visit. There are deer, horses, and birds chirping away in a rustic winter wonderland that made me think of Alice talking to her cat, Dinah.
Do you hear the snow against the window-panes, Kitty? How nice and soft it sounds! Just as if someone was kissing the window all over outside. I wonder if the snow LOVES the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, “Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”
If you’re not feeling sleepy, though, this fun skater’s dress from ISON at Collabor88 is a winner in eight gorgeous colors. ISON also presented coordinating Nordic sweaters to wear over it, but I was drawn to this fur hoodie from Xen’s Hats for the Instruments. It also comes in several colors, but the white one is my favorite.
I added these gorgeous boots from Ingenue for Collabor88. I thought about wearing some heels, but decided that the boots were more practical for this weather. Someone shared this video on Facebook yesterday, tips on walking safely on the ice. Basically, they say walk like a penguin. Back home, we called it the Minnesota Shuffle.
I love that the jacket from Xen’s hat fits loosely enough I can choose from several styles of hair to wear with it. I went with this style from Amacci for Hairology this month.
Lelutka just released Simone – a special edition mesh head with some new expressions including this cheeky one. The makeup is Glam Affair’s Ruth for Collabor88 that I softened using the Lelutkha HUD. The earrings are gorgeous and are from Kunglers for On9
