Ciao a tutti!
Here the cold suddenly came and ironically the streets are all painted with the warm colors of the autumn leaves! Colors that inspired me for today’s look. I wanted to put together an outfit which could give the idea of something cozy and, at same time, quick and easy. To start, I’m wearing the N i V E N rose tapestry brocade dress, which has a lovely autumn palette and the style I was looking for. It is perfect and stylish to take a relaxing walk in the park in the late afternoon.
I matched it with the cozy cropped Yeti jacket from Muism. This fur jacket is amazingly realistic, and really follows RL trends for the Fall/Winter. I own a similar jacket in RL, and I use it for my casual meetings with friends or with a more formal or bon ton evening outfits.
As the dress has a floral pattern of different colors you don’t want to go overboard with the colors of the accessories. Select one color for the rest of the items matched, that is brown or its shades, for the jacket itself and the great sculpty boots from Maitreya, the slouch socks and the classy gloves, a group gift from Vain Inc.
As the look is feminine and casual, a skin with a base makeup, made fresher by the dot eyelashes by MMS, and unfettered, straight hair in a gorgeous natural blonde. Final touches to add a touch of chic is the statement necklace from the N i V E N lizard coat dress.
Ciao for now!

I selected neutral colors for my look, white and gray with some gold and darker tones as to not to make it too monochrome. The blouse from the N i V E N heavy metal coat dress is perfect for the look I had in my mind. I wanted to play with geometric patterns and at same time match it with some high waisted white pants by Muism, which adds to the retro flavor.
I wanted to keep this look clean, so decided not to use any nail polish or statement jewelry. I limited myself to a pair of very simple earrings, the Nairobi by Seasons HC. I wanted to emulate a Twiggy style and impress without wearing many accessories or being too made up. Used then the Helsinki skin in its fair tone with its clean make up and the Jamie hair in blonde, very Twiggy-like, both by MMS.
Other accessories, and a very strong part of the look, are made by the spectacles by Paper Couture. It was the spectacles that initially gave me the idea for this style along with the N i V E N Heavy Metal Coat Dress Top, which is one of the few I every saw with a geometric pattern such as this and with an amazing collar.
Matched them with a black belt by Artilleri, subtle yet classy, and the tweed bag by plus, which compliments the blouse nicely.
My shoes are Diva2 by Tesla in white and they contribute to make the overall look, a bit androgyny, but never masculine. Just like the gorgeous Twiggy was.
Ciao for now!
