Lounging About
Each week, I set out to attend the Linden Meetings – which, thanks to time zones, are often at the crack of dawn for me. I usually try to dress the part – business-minded if I have time – but it’s all about my mood and the early hour. Today’s look is ideal for those early mornings, and since I’m an hour and a half early, the temptation to sneak under a bench for a nap is real. That said, one of those animesh creatures they have rezzed here would probably step on my hair, and we can’t have that. Recently, Linden Lab has been recording the meetings – not all of them, and not always live streaming, but you can catch up on the Second Life official YouTube channel if you’re interested.
This outfit mixes pieces from the soon-to-open Mellow Elie line and Fashionably Dead’s latest release of thermals at Tres Chic. When creators have impeccable taste in colours, styling becomes effortless. Take this soft, vintage baby tee by Mellow Elie – it has that luxurious look, and if you join the group early, you’ll get discounts and more perks. The launch is Saturday, 9th November, and the group is currently free – just search “Mellow Elie” in groups.
The thermals are adorable – though they come with their own top, I went for a blended look with pieces from different creators. I can’t resist arm warmers or gloves, as you’ve probably noticed. The shorts are so cosy and eye-catching that I even changed my photo template to show you the back view. With their snug, thermal texture, they’re just perfect for the season. I’m also working on making my blog photos ‘float’ with a white background. If you’re a long-time reader, you’ll know I love switching up my blog layout, trying to keep it fresh.
The hair by Lamb is such a cute style – clips on either side of the part add that sweet, girly look I adore. I even went with a more colourful shade this time, though my dark roots still show, so I’m not fooling anyone into thinking I’m a natural blonde with pink highlights. Isn’t Second Life just brilliant for experimenting like this? I also remembered a sleep mask gift from Tres Blah – it adds the perfect finishing touch and definitely says I need some rest!
Now, let’s talk pampering. If you, like me, are ruled by your feet – no joke, this is a thing – Breathe has you covered with their cloud-like slippers. It’s like walking on air, keeping me cosy and comfy all day.
