Only a few days left of My Attic, and also Collabor88 has a week left. Make sure you visit both and get all the goodies. I fell for the cardigan from Emery as soon as I saw it, but loved the home comfort kind of vibe it had, and decided that it would be totally something to grab when there is a chill in the air, and you may be waiting on your loved one, for a romantic night by the fireplace.

The fireplace is from The Loft, and is part of many fine pieces in the Casolare range. The other gorgeous items are the chairs and light fixture that I rezzed from the dining set, the chairs are gorgeous enough to also be free standing seating for any room in the house. A firm favourite from a past collection is the hide rug, also a The Loft piece, so if you are after a nice rug, this one is perfect.

The other day I wore the bra of this beautiful mesh lingerie set, but this time decided to go the full set in a chocolate colour. It is from collabor88 and it fit really well under the cardigan, a tiny bit of clipping with the bra strap if you don’t combine sizes properly, but only when the shoulders are rolled forward in some poses, so definitely a great combination.

The hair is by Mina, and hopefully everyone has stood back recently at her last few releases and gone WELL DAMN! because Mina has changed not only her hair textures but levelled up all over the place when it comes to creating must have styles. This Nikky hair is just gorgeous for those that love a mid length style, and the red is glorious. This delight is currently at My Attic, and as all items at My Attic, it is only 95L a pack, so hurry up. The skin I am wearing is by Deetalez and is an exclusive of the Jarla skin, that is at My Attic as well, you could totally do over a whole avatar this round, and this skin is just beautiful. I need to go and get the others, because they are all so pretty and you can get appliers for slink hands and feet at her store, so its all really awesome.

Lastly the beautiful strand of pearls around my neck with the satin bow are by Yummy, one of the items at Collabor88 this round and there are earrings and a more posher – yes you can say more posher because you just can roight! – version of pearls also available. Honestly the Yummy items at Collabor88 are often so detailed and just truly precious items, that they are collectibles in their own right. They are pieces that if you came across them in a vintage store, or an Auction you would be crazy not to snap them up, so with them being so readily available to us at C88 don’t make the mistake of not doing so.

My first post of the year, it seems like I was slacking I am sure, but alas no cable for the first few weeks of the year. Huge clumps of Sydney were down, and my area was the worst apparently. If anyone in SL works for my service provider, I apologise for the screaming. I should probably apologise to my neighbors as well , there was so much rage. The first thing I did when I logged in, was rez the NEW Maitreya item from Collabor88, ripped open the boxes to find the lace overlay of the vintage lace gown…hoping that it was as I knew it would be. To my delight it was, a separate piece, that meant I could wear it exactly how I wanted to, with the couture leggings, and this great bra from Faenzo. Then to top it off the vintage posture collar, also by Maitreya.

Because the stunning piece is lace, it does mean its loaded with alpha channels, so do make sure you wear a hairstyle that is non rigged, or above the shoulders, so it doesn’t cut into the dress. Another item I could not wait to wear, the Volta shoes by League…now you need to just run over to League right now, regardless of what you like, because she is having a HUGE 50% OFF Sale – not all the newer items are included in the sale, but honestly you could do some real damage with all the older items as well.

The shoes are amazing, with so many features in the hud, especially if you have the fat pack! The fatpack allows for mixing of colours, so you can have pink and red shoes, or blue and brown and so on. There are also great metalic options for the glorious studs.

I wanted to also show some of the delightful furniture pieces from this round of C88. The hutch by Pilot is definitely a great staple for any home, I am sure with all the collectibles many acquire from events like The Arcade, this is a nice piece to have. The other fantastic piece, is the Astrid chair by Trompe Loeil, this chair is a great take on a windsor seat, and I love the bucket style and high armrests. The whole thing comes in at 3LI which is just an incredible demonstration of great modeling from Cory Edo, to keep so much detail but not run up the LI. The hutch is also only 3LI, so Pilot and Trompe Loeil are definitely must visit stores when next decorating your home.

My Attic is up and going strong, all items are 95L each for the duration, and the nails I am wearing are some of my own I created for the event. So make sure you go and visit and scoop up all the goodies.

Special mention, the AMAZING art work behind me, is a RL drawing by Monica Outlander of MiaMai and was a gift to me. You can actually purchase her real life drawings from Etsy, so if on the lookout for true works of art, give them a look, her work is INCREDIBLE! A Looking Glass
