I clean up nice, I think.

I've let myself get so casual in SL, forgoing dresses in favor of jeans and tee shirts or hoodies with sneakers. I'd almost forgotten how much I like to dress up.

The Weston Swishy Skirts from Vanita's Vesture are hands down one of my favorite pieces in SL. They're fantastically made, and I love how they lay and how they move. I paired it with one of the new Fling blouses from Sn@tch, which is just so pretty in a rich purple.
Speaking of purple, the jewelry I'm wearing is today's 69L item from [Monkee] (formerly DM Designs.) It's a total steal at that price, and worth picking up if you haven't already. (It'll be out until Thursday morning.)

The Rebekah heels from Nardcotix may be my new favorite pair of shoes. I wear them as often as I can, frequently pairing them with lingerie when I go to work at RD. They're simple, elegant, perfect.

Well, that's enough babbling for now. I'm off to stare at my swishiness.

I Am In the Will Whether You Like It Or Not.

The new set from Adore & Abhor for Fifty Linden Friday is making me squee times ten. I love 1. black 2. jackets 3. anything relating to funerals (except for the part about the dead person) and 4. vintage-style mesh hats, so the new jacket and head piece, called I'm In The Will, makes me hap-hap-happy!I think it looks straight up awesome with the Dinner at 8 dress from Sn@tch. Unfortunately this dress is no longer available in black, but you can get it in plenty of other colors.
