A LITTLE COUNTRY

It all started with the hat. I forgot this beauty in my closet for too long. I put it on and started looking through piles of shoes for my cowboy boots.

That got me thinking about brown suede and maybe fringes or laces, and country living ... leading to this deer vest I picked up at silentsparrow. Honestly when I bought it, I wasn't sure what I would do with it, but it's perfect when you're in the mood for leather. Walking around in the country I could get cold, so I layered in a thermal henley and undershirt and some great socks.

BACCHANALIA

The Black Bacchanal fair is visiting Silentsparrow, use the mushrooms to teleport from the store up to the Rookery. Several fabulous designers are offering pretties at fabulous prices, there are even a couple of Gacha machines for you gacha addicts! If you miss it you will kick yourself. Trust me. I paired Silentsparrow’s sweater with the skirt part of a dress from the Blue Blood Gacha. They didn’t quite match so I tinted the skirt, easy peasy.

Sweater: silentsparrow “Batty Knitty Sweater” (Black Bacchanal Event L$31)

p.s. If you haven’t been there yet, Vive9 is giving away fatpacks of vintage skins and a few clothes at their main store on the Vive Sim. You should go see. I have shown these Aoki skins before, but I also have a soft spot for them. And the Belle skins too.

BOND GIRL

"Welcome to Bermuda, Mr. Bond. I just finished preparing your suite. Will you need extra towels or toiletries? No? Please let me know if you need anything else."

He threw me roughly on the just-made bed and stepped back, drawing his Walther PPK quickly and eyeing me suspiciously from a distance. "Tell me who sent you. You are no more a maid than I am a boy scout." I knew my cover was blown so I told the truth. "I was sent to look after you. Felix sends his best." ... "How did you know? What gave me away?"

He whispered in my ear "My dear, those are not the shoes of a domestic."

Of course this isn't the kind of accessory worn by a maid either.
