Why the hell it means so much to me. Those lyrics have always resonated in my mind, and it's also one of the songs for one of my all time favorite songs ever! The Devil Wears Prada. I mean, what else is better than Meryl Streep as Myranda Priestly? Honestly.. that movie is amazing, and the intro they did with the song.. one of the best in movie history... if you're into fashion that is. So this morning I challenge you to ask yourself, just why the hell it all means so much to you? May it be blogging, roleplaying, fashion, life, whatever your passion is! Why does it mean so much to you? What inspires you, and motivates you? I'll start. Why does blogging mean so much to me? Easy.. I have always loved SL fashion, from early times in my SL days I've followed main designers and their growth through SL, I've followed the trends, and the improvements, and now I finally get to share one of my passions with everyone, all while growing in my skills in photography and writing. What else could I ask for? It's all of my passions into one little gift package. I honestly have to thank Nicollete Blogger to actually give me the motivation to start in this new found passion of mine.
And with that out of the way, what do I have for you today? COCO! In TDR Fusion! This outfit is just magnificent If you haven't heard of COCO, let me tell you about them briefly, for years they've been given out gifts in the store that are just amazing. Not only are they extremely generous, all of their wear is available for a very low price, and it's honestly just amazingly good quality stuff! Now that they're breaking out with more mesh goodies, it's always a worth to look at, and this little ensemble in TDR Fusion really got me inspired just because it's so well mapped, the drape work and the texture work on it is just to die for, and the little fur collar bit with the pearls.. Oh, it's me personified in an accessory. They're available for.. I believe it was 75L each, the dress, and the accessory piece, and it's only available for two short weeks!
I made it a little more winterly by adding tights from Mon Tissu, and an undershirt from Fri.day.
I know I used this song already, but the world didn't end, so that's technically a new year, right? Ok, so maybe it isn't, but the song is so beautiful, that it doesn't matter, I will use it again. It really was my inspiration for this post too, once I saw this beautiful gown, all I wanted was to hold it and dance around in an empty ballroom. That's just what I did, too. Don't judge!
So! What has me motivated to another post today? The simply fact that Sassy! has this amazing dress for sale! Twisted Krissmuss is an event where you can buy a gift for someone. Now get this.. Look down, drop your jaw at the sexy amazing number, and now look back up here. The price is only 100L, and the item is transfer! Now.. when you have alts, you know how precious it is to come across an article of clothing that is transfer, or even to give as a gift, it's something that's truly valuable. Now.. you're getting a quality item, and a low price, and transfer. Please don't faint.
All joke aside though, it is an amazing good deal that you'd be crazy to pass on. It's up until January 4th, so make sure to grab it. I'm wearing the gold one, because it made me really feel like a blonde Anastasia. But it comes in plum, white, red and black, and pink and white. I had to add a picture of the back of this outfit because it was just breath taking the way that it drapes, and the shadow work on it. Honestly, Sassy has been in the grid for a very long time, but it's really one of those designers that is emerging as an extremely good quality designer, and one to watch too. And the price isn't one to break the pocket! Always a plus. Places like Celoe are truly amazing, but it almost does cost an arm and a leg to shop there, it's nice to see designers like Sassy keep their prices low, but their quality high.
Finally, new hair from Exile for Together for Sway. It comes in a naturals pack, and a roots pack I believe, don't really quote me on that, but the hair style is very cute! And it goes perfectly along with this dress. I added some accessories from Donna Flora to make it have more of a sophisticated feel to it, and finished it off with a pair of Celoe pumps. Something to keep in mind, ladies! With a dress like this, you really have to pair it off right to pull it off, because too many accessories, you'd look like you're going to a porn gala. Do it right, and you will look like a diva. I like up do's with revealing outfits, not saying that it's a must, you can also pull it off with long flowy hair, or short and straight, there's no right answer there, just my personal preference. But, accessory wise, less is more, one single ring, small earrings and something small around the neck, just an accent piece. If you do it right, you'll look a million bucks!
