..and purple, and yellow, and all colours of the bruised rainbow inbetween!

I have managed to keep on top of in-world events, which I’ll address in another post, but for now I just wanted to share a bijou lookette with you featuring one of TRUTH’s weekly hair releases.
I haven’t gone for the ‘bacon’ hair this week, but I have fallen for this gorgeous style called ‘Iris‘, which features an optional beaded tie on one braid. The beads are colour change which allows for mixy-matchy happy with your outfits. Braids are so simple yet so sweet to wear, and this colour change feature makes all the difference and really poshes up the braids a tad. I wish I could get my braids to look like this in real life! Incidentally TRUTH has changed the styling of his blog. I heartily suggest that you go and check it out, and I note that there is a forum feature on there now. I wonder if that will allow us to post pictures of our favourite styles along with pleas for him to create them in-world? Fingers crossed!
As well as the new hairstyle I’m wearing a rather nice flannel dress that I found on XStreet which cost all of L$99. Shock horror! It’s a featured marketplace item from TART replete with mod prims, as well as two skirt options (with or without belt). It’s called ‘Dylan’ and it’s an absolute bargain for the dosh, plus it looks great worn with leggings and flats or heels or boots. Versatile wearing at a super-low price. I love checking out the marketplace items and I’m really chuffed to have made such a great find.
I’m also sporting a rosary from HOD which is my favourite place for piercings in-world. I love the little skull prim on this and it adds an edge to any outfit, and HOD’s collection is very well made if you’re on the look out for something unusual to wear.
Finally the skin is ‘Aline’ by LAQ which is my current favourite. I love the shading on this so much, I know I’ve waxed lyrical about it before so I won’t bore you with the details again, but it is a real treat to wear. I’ve teamed it with ‘Litha’, which is my current shape release and even if I say so myself I think it looks perfect with this skin. Of course the shape is a bargain at L$100 to boot!
It’s reassuring to know that while I recover I look good in at least one of my lives:)
