Last Monday night I logged in and I was DELIGHTED to see a couple of boxes of lovelies had been dropped upon me. It’s been difficult to find the time to do serious SLing recently, although you wouldn’t think so from reading the blog, so taking time out to have a look at some nice things is excellent therapy for my slightly weary soul, and I thank ye from the bottom of my achy breaky heart for sending them to me, it means a lot.
Especially when those nicies are by TESLA! Ohhhhh Tesla Tesla TESLA!
Tesla Mile’s shoes should have an orgasm warning included with each pair, because they are nigh on guaranteed to make you spurt with joy!
Now, this is coming from a girl who in RL doesn’t own more than a few pairs of shoes-seriously! When reality bites, I trot along behind it in a variety of different Crocs, as I love the practicality of them, plus I have a bit of a bad back and they weigh nowt so don’t exacerbate the problem. Also, as a 5ft 8inch big bird in RL, and being a tad on the large size, I can’t wear stilettoes and look dignified. (But I love the look of them, and for the record, the only time I ever wore a pair it was like an over-large pink blancmange attempting to walk with the grace of a new-born giraffe. Dita Von Teese I am not..) So at least in SL I have the opportunity to lust after my much coveted footwear and wear them with gusto. In fact, you have a hard time wrenching my Tesla ‘Vinyl Vixens’ from my feet owing to their utter perfectness and the fact that they fit in with practically any outfit I wear..or not … But back to the new stuff. Armed with my (virtual) tissues I opened the box and oh boy, oh boy, OH BOY! Sculpted stilleto boots!
Look at them…adore them..breathe in the fragrant leather (Ok, I’m getting a wee bit too excited here, but indulge me-it’s Tuesday) I so needed to share these with you, but was unsure what to team them with….so, in my usual moochy style I wandered around the blogs and arrived at my favourite, Linden Lifestyles, which is always a top click of mine, as regular readers will be aware. One post in particular had me running like the clappers (Note-clappers not slappers!) to ‘Haute Style & Co.’ at Haute Couture. I’l start off by stating that I wasn’t aware of this store until I read the LL post, but believe me, I will be paying close attention to this place from now on! My initial reason for visiting was the Maxie jumpsuit, which id getting a lot of press because it is absolutely gorgeous. Linden Lifestyles have already featured it, and Chel Norfolk photographed one of her friends in the same outfit and it was bloody obvious that it was calling to me (First time’s always a coincidence, second time is always fate in my book) so I had to go and buy it. And then I saw the rest of teh delights in store….I went all chimp-like “Ooh-ooh-ohh!” and started to foam at my virtual mouth, rushing around the place like I was a whirling dervish gone nutty on acid. When I had finished my fit I was the owner of some utterly delicious clobber…and wonderfully made clobber it is too! Just look at the details people..oh my gosh! The texture, the prim work on the collar, the bell bottoms on the trousers and the corsetry detail are just bloody perfect. I talk about clothes a lot, and all of the outfits I choose to feature tend to be more than adequate examples of SL seamstressing..but this my friends is something else entirely. I haven’t been this bowled over since ‘Last Call’ was still with us. I cannot describe how much I love this outfit. It’s completely wrong of me to say it, but tough patootie- I creamed my virtual knickers with glee in this store! SO here you go, a picture to encapsulate clothing heaven. The shoes from Tesla, the outfit from HSC. Look, no silliness inside of the trouser leg..the texture has been lovingly applied to the inside as well..YAY! (Why don’t more people do that?)
