Alchemy - To Separate and Join Together.

When *Alchemy* joined the ranks of the brilliant vendors on Retrology a few weeks back, I was thrilled, not only have I been watching Constanza Volare's work for some time, and noting her leaps and bounds into the realm of fabulous, but I always love a chance to shop on the SIM I call home. One of the dresses I picked up on my weekly rounds is this adorable Flirty dress in Purple. I particularly love the orange crinoline under the skirt, touches like that really make all the difference for me.



I went with a favorite pair of 'staple' shoes, the Maitreya ChiChi in White, with the rims script-tinted to purple. I pulled in a great Freja Bag from BareRose Tokyo Couture to continue with the white accessories. I added a strand of Timeless Knotted Pearls from Encore, another Retrology Vendor. With this sweet one-sided wig, I still managed to get on one of my favorite earrings from /artilleri/, the Bead Hoop Earrings which can be script-tinted into dozens of colours, really wonderfully versatile, and best of all inexpensive! I also tucked a charming rose in my hair, also from /artilleri/, to keep the look as sweet and feminine as possible. Now open on the SIM is the adorable ~*Fresh Baked Goods*~, a shop that looks like a french patisserie. I was given this great Gold Bright Sprinkled Donut Bangle by Sweetie Pye, one of the owners, and love that I can change the base bangle colour to one of 12 great colours. Can you tell I am a fan of scripted items? Oy!

This sweet hair is another find from +*DEJAVU*+, called JUN, it is a really cute and simple style. Eyes are from [Detour], the fabulous Delta Eyes in Hazel, I can hardly keep up with all the great things coming out of [Detour] lately. My sister Anessa told me they have some clothes out now, must shop! Skin is the adorable Canimal Essence of Grace, in the Poise Make-Up. I really love the full lips on these skins. For me, Alchemy is the art of separating out the parts of my wardrobe, and bringing them together to make a great look!

Is It Too Early For A Tea Party?

A Gorgeous Lace Dress from Neferia Abel's "~Ivalde~" inspired this Tea Party ready ladylike look. The Sculpted Flower Accent on the waist is so fabulous, you really don't need a lot of accessories for a complete look. A soft long curly style for my hair from "Armidi" was in keeping with the romantic feminine look of this dress, which also comes in a gown look. A knotted pearl necklace says "Lady Who Lunches"... I am looking to buy a silver tea service now so I can have the Girls over for finger sandwiches and petite fours.
