It’s so cold out and I’m feeling super lazy but I wanted to share my weekend outfit with you.

Yummy Girl Emmaline Returns!
When Berry invited me *back* to YummyGirl I was flabbergasted! I figured my last post would for sure scare off half her readership 🙂 (Noooo! I loooved having you visit! You can come back any time! – the editor)
I love the challenge she chose for this month. Making two outfits from one item of clothing can be a challenge, but I think it’s something all we fashionistas hope to do so we can get the most out of our favorite pieces!
This first outfit was my attempt at urban chic. I especially love how the eyeshadow matched the shirt so well, and the feather earrings really softened the overall look.
These leather pants are one of my new favorite things to wear, the new mesh section at Maitreya is pretty much the best thing that happened to me this month.
Skin: LAQ Ebba (Peach) Christmas Gift 2011

Shoes: Leverocci – Embossed Leather Oxford PumpsClassic
In my next look I tried to do something completely different. This is a much younger look, and has a bit of whimsy to it. I like the school girl influences and I tried to tie all the colors together in a very cohesive way.
Skin: LAQ Olivia (Peach)
Makeup: [[Mozz]] Lashes

Skirt: Artilleri Zara Skirt *brown/blue*

I hope all you Yummygirls are having a fantastic new year so far…happy shopping!

I got soooo much to say about today’s post that I don’t even know where to start!
First, this is going with the January theme of two looks using one piece of clothing so YAY! Just wasn’t sure I would be able to stick with a theme but so far, so good!
I‘ve taken the Maitreya dress and boots from this post and added the super awesome coat by SLink for Collabor88, new hair and a few yummy accessories to create a sleek retro look.
One of the accessories is a brooch that really isn’t a brooch at all but a gorgeous ring from Glow! Just attached it to spine, lil twist here, lil lift there and a few minor adjustments more and it works great!
On a side note, I’ve been trying to find an excuse to buy this adorable hair with netting and beret from Shag foreeeever so double yay! 🙂

The Most
The whole “multi-outfits built round one main item” idea got me thinking today bout those few clothing and accessory staples that I use almost every. single. day. This is the stuff that gets the job done all the time and deserves some extra bunches of blog-love.
On a side note, I was due for some nipple shots. 😀
First up, the hair. LeLutka’s SJ hair without the bottom attachment thingie. It’s silky, soft, feminine… not short, not long… the hair frames a face and manages to look casual and elegant at the same time. This is the hair I wear when I don’t know what to wear.
Hair: LeLutka, SJ in Marilyn
Next, eye liner, lips and nails. All three are absolute musts for me every day and these three go with everything soooo well and are made with care.
Eye Liner: BOOM, Love My Eyes Eyeliner and Mascara
Lip Gloss: ROZENA, Baby Gloss in Pink
Nails: N-core, Manicure
My taste in jewelry is feminine and funky. Loud enough to draw an eye, sweet enough to get away with it. These three pieces do both perfectly without fullbright or bling or menus. Low lag, stylish and beautifully crafted.
Necklace: Paper Couture, Agate Necklace
Ring: Paper Couture, Spring Multi-Stone Ring
Ring: Donna Flora, ZSAZSA Leo Pink Ring
Lastly, the undies 🙂
My favorite tank ever. Serious. I wear it for layering, by itself, under jackets… whatever. It’s sheer and sexy and laid back and it took forever for me to find this one perfect version after searching all of SL for prolly a month.
The panties are from Stickyfingers. Pink, sweet, sliding off one hip.. how can you go wrong? I love wearing these under those shorts and jeans that seem just a lil too butt bearing. Guys love these things too. 🙂
Maitreya scrunchy socks are the absolute in all short sockie-ness. They change foot shape from flat to tip toe and color and even have an invisible foot option for wearing them with shoes. These socks are the rainbow sprinkles on my ice cream sundae. 🙂
Tank: NanoGunk, Sheer Tank Shirt
Panties: STICKYFINGERS, My Naughty Panties in Pink
Socks: Maitreya, Scrunched Prim Socks
Casual Wednesday
I was craving a lil funky, cute and fun in my life this morning and then I remembered that Stumblebum had started a few days ago and I rushed out to see just what I could find!
Truth Hair is offering this adorable hairstyle with color change bows at a $L50 discount to the usual price for the bi-weekly Stumblebum Brigade event. Kyoot’s contribution are snug and sexy sweaters in beautifully muted colors.
To pump up the girly funk factor I tossed in my super fave Epic gatcha glasses in baby pink, an oversized and beautiful turquoise ring and a delicate-sweet necklace from ruchica.

Two For One
Yummy Girls need options.
A new look for every day and sometimes every hour is just how it is when you want to look cute, sexy, sweet and fashionable out there on the grid. To help out I’m gonna make the theme for January “Two For One Fashion Month” by putting together yummy outfits of different looks based on one main item! Considering I had this idea last night bout 2 am… let’s hope I don’t fall flat on my face with it. 🙂
Today I put together two looks both centered around Maitreya’s new Athena mesh sweater in blue.
I love mesh. Mesh loves me. Mesh is polyamorous… it will love you too if you have a mesh-enabled viewer. Kay, enough of my pro-mesh public message for at least a few sentences.
This first look all started with the one shoulder leather backpack from Mr. Poet. I was at KittyCats! shop innocently buying kibble and there was a girl next to me looking waaaay too fashionable with this pack slung all casual over her shoulder. First impulse was to grab it and sprint for the door but one polite IM later and I was off buying my own.
The pack is menu driven with size and color change for the leather and hardware. Super well worth the reasonable price.
Side Note: Dear Wasabi Pills, I love you. I love your mesh hair styles. I love the colors. You are the fluffy pink icing on the cupcake of my second life. Love, Berry.

Bookworm Minus the Books
The holidays took over in a big way (just as they should) and left me full of wrapped-in-a-quilt-sipping-cocoa-lighting-candles-staring-at-twinkling-lights-content moments.
In a way, this outfit matches that mood for me.
