Who is going to a traditional Black & White ball for New Year’s Eve? It seems like nearly all the women dress in white – a nod to the season’s frosty weather. Many of the dresses have snowflakes and crystals to accentuate the seasonal motif. This year, though, you can have the snowflakes and stand out from the crowd in this black snowflake dress from Sascha’s Designs called Antarctica.
As Christmas draws to a close and we head toward New Year’s, there will be a lot of holiday parties looking toward the coming year. Perhaps a traditional Black & White ball on New Year’s Eve? If so, this is a lovely dress for that, simple and seasonal, with understated elegance. It’s from Pretty Magic and is wisely sold separately from the witch hat and cape that goes with it.
Aemilia Case lifted me out of my pity party at being snowed in and unable to spend Christmas with friends as planned by asking for volunteers for a photo shoot. Considering I had been actually contemplating watching an NCIS marathon, I jumped at the chance to be on the other side of the camera. For the shoot I was given this Mein Herr outfit by Shai Delacroix of Casa del Shai that she is releasing today.
Yes, Sally Bowles!!! and to make it even more fun, all of us were posing on the cabaret chairs made by Luth Brodie of Reel Expression. She will be releasing two 12-pose chairs and 12 standing poses so all of us can release our inner Sally and strut the stage and was kind enough to gift all of us posers with a set.
There’s no reason you have to wear a special Christmas dress. Here is a lovely simple red dress from Sheer that is made seasonal through accessories. The photo background, by the way, is one of 10 Christmas backgrounds I made that you can download free or request via IM in-world.
Now here’s a Christmas dress that you can wear past Boxing Day and a great one for all those celebrating Christmas south of the Equator where it’s bright, sunny summertime. It’s a little slip dress from League in seasonal colors with a lovely lace trim that mght just be snowflakes, but who’se telling.
There's a 72 hours sale at Tres Jolie. Gidge is wearing Tres Jolies Flocon de Neige. Cajsa is wearing Flocon de Neighe Rouge.
This single mother living in the woods had two daughers whom she gave the idiosyncratic and slightly lunatic names Snow White & Rose Red. The two sisters got on well and did everything together.
I have several Christmas outfits that I have dithered around and not posted, so I will make some quick and short posts. This is Flirty Christmas from 24Shoo – a store I encountered when deleting landmarks – a mystery landmark that I had to follow before deleting. I will have to go back again. There were some cool shoes there but their vendors were messed up and nothing on that wall was for sale. This was in another area, so lucky me… a flirty, lovely cocktail dress.
Last night I started the CSR Stamp Rally. It’s a good thing there’s plenty of time to get cards stamped because the first place I teleported to was Happy Mood and after getting my cards stamped, I stopped to look if there were anything new. But that was not really why I stopped, i stopped to play on their marvelous posing tree. Oh yes, I had to sit on every pose and loll about. And that was as far as I got on the stamp rally last night.
Running around the grid today looking for some Christmas gifts, I wanted to be sure both comfortably and seasonally dressed. I confess it was a bit nippy and some boots and a jacket would have been wiser, but then it gets so hot inside the store.
My directions from Achariya were quite generous in allowing me to choose what I wanted. She wrote:
For you, I think I’d want to see you in cute yet classic style from Japanese designers. How about a coat and pants and hair from DP**yumyum? (There are some pants on sale in the sale room, really cute capris). Boots from J’s, and other accessories from Swallowtail? ♥ Thank you for letting me play with you!
