SHIKI scarves
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone! I hope you’re having a peaceful day 
Today I felt like playing around with accessories and what better thing to choose on a crisp and cool day but scarves! SHIKI has come out with some beautiful scarves in different styles and are also available in virtually every colour and style. A clever feature of these scarves is they come in pairs – one scarf to attach to your chest and another to attach to your spine. Very handy if you want to wear a necklace or if you have an outfit requiring a collar etc. I’ve paired the SHIKI scarves with stylish glasses by primOptic and knee boots by Mentine <3.

Reasonable Desires – Noelle
Reasonable Desires has this beautiful burlesque, Xmas styled outfit available; just perfect for the holiday party season called Noelle! Complete with pasties, bra, corset, long and short styles of skirt, stockings, gloves..the whole shebang! I just love the little mistletoe adorned cocktail hat too. As everything on offer at Reasonable Desires, it’s expertly textured and flawlessly created. Reasonable Desires is one of the most venerable and best loved stores on the grid and definitely the most affordable.

E! Apparel and Accessories
I was trying on some pieces by Eclectic Wingtips of E! Apparel and Accessories and I took a few snaps to show you some of the cuteness! I chose first an opaque tank called Daisy May and a halter style top called Gothika which I’ve paired with the Ripped skirt. Lots of different colours for this tank are available for purchase and paired with the skirt makes a nice day-to-evening outfit. Next is the Petal top which is delicately textured and has an empire waistband. It looks lovely with either jeans or a skirt. Also there are different layers included so you can pair it with a jacket. Lastly is a lovely knitted jersey sweater and an adorable pair of long shorts called Nadene.

*Beauty Avatar* soon to be released Daphne
I was thrilled to see this soon-to-be released skin from *Beauty Avatar* called Daphne. There are tons of makeups and they are all VERY glamorous! I’ll show more pics later, but I was so excited to wear it that I wanted to at least show you one of them! The picture below is unretouched and I’m also wearing a sweater by Kissed by Lithium sweater called Fedrin and hair by Truth called Stella (what a fabulous name! hehe).

Adam n Eve Adventure
Adam n Eve just came out with a scrumptious new sculptie jacket called Adventure! It’s zippered and fantastic for layering with your fave scarf, shirt or sweater underneath. It has a folded prim collar and short sleeves. I love the textured “puffy” texture, very realistic! They come in a ton of delicious colours and they are copy/mod for the perfect fit. I’ve paired this great jacket with a new scarf from SHIKI, jeans by Kissed by Lithium and a pair of 2way lace up boots by AOHARU:Anexx in red.

Sascha’s Designs Temptation
More sumptuous elegance from Sascha’s Designs entitled Temptation. There are at least 4 different looks you can achieve with this selection from a sexy mini cocktail/club dress to outright glamorous long gowns. The short version is particularly interesting where you can wear a turtleneck style collar with a bolero style jacket, embellished with flouncy sleeve prims for the wrists.

Kissed by Lithium Stilnocht
Style and versatility is compiled into one beautiful T-shirt dress from Kissed by Lithium called Stilnocht! Lots of different looks can be made with this fabulous tunic length T-shirt with a colourful abstract embellishment on the front and it also come with a perfect little dress prim if you want to go short and daring. It also comes with colourful matching jean capris which look great with either stilettos, wedges or sneakers. Tons of cheerful colours to choose from.

Ingenue
I just LOVE Ingenue for classic glamour styling. I just feel pretty when I put them on! Choose anything by Ingenue and it can take you from day-night, business or pleasure, beautifully. The two dresses below exemplify this classical beauty. The Gene knee-length cocktail dress has a subtle embossed floral texture embellished with a large prim bow at the waistline and Ella is a puffy sleeved, knee-length, wrap dress also embossed with a floral texture but accented with a textured zipper belt. Memo is a high-waist, vintage styled skirt and I’ve paired it with the Edie cowl necked sweater in Dove.
