Sepia…….

2 Replies

This was a difficult color for me, since I consider Sepia to be a brown with a tinge of orange… and I DO NOT like orange… lol… ok.. now having said that…. LOOK what I found!

I just started randomly going through my clothing landmarks and I happened upon these REALLY cute steampunk-ish ankle boots.  Loved and thought you all might as well.  Go pick your self up a pair of Miss Dandy, bronze gears at lassitude and ennui!

Every week, when we hear what the new color will be for the 52 Weeks of Color bloggers challenge, I scour my favorite designers shops for something that I think is the perfect hue for that week.  When I saw this dress at Ingenue it jumped out at me screaming… I’m PLUM!  And it doesn’t hurt that it fits nicely into my “look” of late – that 40’s pinup girl style.

From the sexy sweetheart cut-out neckline ~ down to the flouncy bottom of the waist defining corset ~ and the sexy hip hugging pencil skirt this dress screams sex siren.  And plum just goes fantastically with my red hot hair.

And this outfit from Donna Flora is just the thing to warm you up!

A beautifully tailored suit, trimmed in warm fur at the collar and cuffs.  Squinternet Larnia’s attention to detail is fantastic.  Her fabric textures have so much depth you can almost feel them.  Not to mention her extensive collection of vintage jewelry, you are sure to find just the piece to match ANY outfit.

OK… go ahead and peek.

I’ve been very “into” period clothing lately.  And while I was out and about at Donna Flora, I came across this GREAT lingerie set.  I just had to give you a look. Was the perfect reason to use my dressing room prop from {What Next} too!

The short bed jacket and camisole and shorts are a perfect combo for a cozy evening cuddled up with the one you love or just if you want to feel sexy!  Go by her store and check this set out.. or her jewelry… or her hair… or her shoes… grinz… just go!

Now that winter is nearly upon us I felt a nice sunny post for this week’s color in the bloggers challenge was appropriate.  Goldenrod was a challenging color for me as I have very little yellow in my wardrobe, its does not look good on me in RL so I just don’t usually wear it in SL.  But here goes….. found this groovy outfit at Nyte ‘N’ Day and thought “perfect”.  I love the look and the color is fabulous. AND amazingly enough, Gala looks GREAT in yellow (or goldenrod)!

Take a look and see if you don’t agree!

Week 2 ~ I'm Feeling Blue

Well.. not really but… it is the BLUE week in the 52 Weeks of Color bloggers challenge.  Once in a while I like to take a walk on the wild side… or at least the less dressy side and relax and get comfy.  This outfit is the lazydayIdon’tfeellikefixingmyhairorgoinganywhere outfit I would wear (well I would have on slippers in RL, but this is SL) if I was staying home look.  I bought this outfit on the new Marketplace and it didn’t come with a Landmark (I hate when they do that).  But its from a place called *T & A Designs* and I got the link from the Marketplace, so I hope its right.

Check it out… cute huh?

Look of the Day November 3rd

Snowpaw Fashions – one of my fellow IOF bloggers did a post on the cutest outfit yesterday and since I’d never been there I knew I HAD to run over there as soon as I logged on.  And wouldn’t you know it I found this!  I’m in a fall mood and this is just the outfit to slip into and take a lovely stroll around the Garden of Dreams.  A flowing skirt (my fave kind) and crop 3/4 sleeve top look just divine together.  I added this cute hair style that has the hat attached from Argrace and a chunky jewelry set from Dark Mouse to complete the look.  Take a minute and head over to Snowpaw Fashions, they have a fantastic selection at reasonable prices and quite a few lucky boards too!
