Hip to be … Cubic?

Friday, December 21st, 2007

I practically make it my mission in Second Life (and in real life) to always have my finger firmly pressed upon the pulse.  I love staying with what’s hot and what’s new when Im shopping around.  Today’s outfit mixes a bit of the new and old to create a trendy and chic look that I wouldnt mind strutting my stuff down the streets of Manhattan in any day:

The inspiration for this outfit came almost entirely from this new adorable knit jacket from Cubic effect that’s been floating around the Fashion Planet feed in quite a few posts.  Since the advent of sculpties in Second Life, designers grid-wide have really been pushing the envelope to create new and original things for us to wear, and a quick glance through any given Japanese sim can really reveal quite a few hidden treasures.  To create a whole look, I added a simple pair of blue jeans tucked into some of my favorite chocolate colored boots from Last Call: Covet with a plain white tank.  I’ve accessorized with a knit cap from Tesla, a french feather print purse, and of course my new favorite chain necklace (a sculptie rose); an early christmas gift from my good friend Mariya Nesiote <3.  And since Wednesday was officially the first day of Winter, I have given Fall a proper send-off by wearing all of my earthy tones and fall colors.
