Mellow Elie – Sasy Scarborough

It is always fun piecing together a look that combines different texture styles, the structured wool of the shorts, with the billowy cotton of the top, then down to the leather work in the boots. When done right it is a great feeling to have the luxury of choices that we have in Second Life. I had so much trouble deciding on which option of these shorts to wear, they are by Lamb and they are so cute. I especially love the ring pull on the zipper of them, because it is just a cute little detail. The top by Fashionably Dead is giving so much gypsy, and pulls off the off shoulder look so well. My favourite parts are also the incredible texture work on the elastic waist and details giving it such realism, superb work. The top of course lead to my jewellery choices by Sigma, the coin necklace definitely brought the gypsy look home and the rings are just fabulous fun. Both sets come in PBR or classic textures, so you can have a great time putting together your looks with them.

It was time to get my brows done, and Nuve again did not disappoint. These are the Maya brows, that were made for the Maya skin, of which I am not wearing, I love the versatility of Nuve brows that they can be worn across skin lines. These are a little thinner than I usually wear, but they have a lovely swoosh look to them that I like. They also look great with my feathery looking hairstyle by Exile. The shorts gave me another chance to rock out in my Mellow Elie boots, they are so cute, and have an option that will also work with longer pants, but loved them with the shorts.

Did you know? It has been announced as part of the February Membership Mania, that mesh uploads will be free for all Premium Plus users, starting in the next few weeks…however if you visit the Sandbox at Radiantia you can upload for free now. I myself went over and checked this, so it does in fact work now, so do not wait on the few weeks, get to saving. If you are not already a Premium Plus subscriber, I urge you to look into the features that having an account like that includes, because it was already robust and in the last few weeks it has gained even more, I went to bed with 703 prim allowance for my home and woke up with 937.

After my upload test, I was feeling more girly than usual. Fashionably Dead just released this superb bolero (fluff on and off options) and tank set — seriously I think I live in this tank now — that gives a lot of ballerina. It is a release for the Dubai event, and there are also some jeans I cannot wait to wear. However the girliness was strong, and I remembered the Butter skirt by Mellow Elie was going to be the thing that I needed to pull off a girl about town look. The soft flow of the skirt has such great fluidity to it, that I hope to see more like it in future.

The shoes by Breathe gave me a choice of fishnet or polka dots for the sock portion, and it was a neck and neck race to the finish but ultimately the dots won, that and the bows strengthen the vibe and I am feeling my Emily in Paris kind of moment. You can change all the parts separately, but I liked the all one colour look, this is actually one of the fatpack special colours. To make sure my bag matched, I was able to go into edit and tint the handles and heart so that it was more in keeping with the palette I had started, though there are so many colours to choose from via the bags HUD. Also adjusted for the look are these earrings by Yummy, part of their Beachy Boho collection, these are the bubbles earrings and I upped their size a fair bit and love the outcome so much. The Monso hair has a behind shoulders option, that as you know by now I will nearly always prefer, and that gave a proper visual line to the earrings. This half updo style is so cute and I wore one of my own headbands — by Flair — atop it, just to bring all the colours together.
