MichaMi Style Blog

Aloha!
Long time no blogging, huh? Looks like my virtual vacation turned into a vacation from the virtual - my wireless connection is being impossible since the other day (hence the lack of posts), so I haven’t been able to login to SL until last night. This is the best I could do under the circumstances.

Even though it was difficult to shoot, I really love this outfit. The feminine silhouette created by skirts like this one kind of make me think of “the new look” with which Christian Dior revolutionized fashion in 1947, and that seems to be fairly big this spring as well - in more traditional versions and those with a twist of some sort. In times where curves aren’t commonly on models it’s nice to see a strong hourglass figure every now and then, right? My look isn’t exactly classic; I wanted a well-balanced colourbomb with some funky accessories that wouldn’t take it over the top.
   The hair doesn’t look exactly as pictured when you buy it, I modified it a bit by taking off the ponytail and making the front bigger. The sheer tank from Last Call’s “Kadesh” set is one of my “most worn” items lately, it’s tintable and a bikini top underneath looks summerish and - in my opinion - sexy without drifting towards vulgarity (“the ugliest word”, according to Coco Chanel). The tones on these Tesla heels go perfectly with the lower part of the skirt, almost to the point where they seem to belong and the tiny dots on the back of the shoes are somewhat reminiscent to the sparkly texture on the Yelena bikini top. I don’t wear earrings very often, but when I do I like for them to be understated or oversized or quite strange. The bamboomerangs shown here come in different sizes, gold and silver and are scripted with a bunch of textures, one of them happens to have the same colours as the skirt. Along with the bangles, tooth necklace and clutch I think it finishes off the look pretty nicely. Sometimes mixed influences can certainly blend well.

Sorry about the brief silence, but a bit later I’ll be making a post again – my last one here at MichaMi. Time has passed quickly here and you guys have made it so much more fun. Really. Thanks!
