Sisters In Style - A Detour to JE*Republic

Sisters tend to share things, clothes, make-up, jewelry, magazines, and even sometimes living space. Anessa Stine, my RL Identical Twin sister and I were not so great at the sharing things growing up, We had different tastes in men, clothes, music, and we had separate bedrooms from the time we were 6 years old. She was into 'New Kids On Block' and I loved my 'Guns N' Roses', what can I say, polar opposites in most ways.

In SL, Anessa and I do share, we share ideas, we share a passion for fashion and for the SIM we manage, Retrology. And we share HOT TIPS! When we discover something NEW and FABULOUS on the GRID, there is an immediate IM and a "Come Here NOW!", and a TP. Yesterday was just such a day. Anessa learned about "Detour" from GoGoLita's Blog and headed over, sending me a TP so I could come look at her try on skins. I ended up with shoes, eyes, and hair at "Detour". Late last night, I happened on "JE*Republic" for the first time while looking for purses to include in my upcoming article for 'Vain Inc. Magazine'. I was giddy and TP'd Anessa in, and so we thought, lets give this cute boutique a little moment in the SL sun.

I am in hair from "JE*Republic in both shots, the sleek "Bobbed Hair", and an adorable messy bun called 'Boyish Hair'. All 4 of the dresses pictured are from "JE*Republic". I choose the "Black Suede Dress", which reminded me a bit of some of my early 'Paper Couture’, looks, and is a great Little Black Dress Option, and I teamed it with these great 'Tuxedo Pumps' from "Shiny Things". I also chose the more relaxed 'Red Wine Dress’, which I paired up with some great "Armidi Gisaci" Platform Sandals. The Stacked Wood Bangles I am wearing are from a shop in the same mall as "JE*Republic" called "Atelier AM".

Anessa is wearing her new "Detour" Skins in 'Tatiana', and one of their wigs, the sweet 'Junebug' in Midnight. Anessa chose this adorable 'Black Spangle Dress', which is sweet and girlie and reminds me of dresses we both wore to "Semi-Formal" events as teenagers back in the 80s, and paired it with these sexy slouch stiletto boots from "Storm Schmooz". She also picked up this adorable 'Blue Jean Dress' at "JE" and it again echoes the 80s look, which is really coming back around again (just look at the legwarmers people!), and threw on her fabulous NEW Maitreya 'Golden Velvet' ChiChis. And like good sisters, we are sharing all of this with everyone else too! Check out the JE*Republic Mainstore, Located @ The Galleria in Korea Mirinae.
