Rock chic

Sorry for the prolonged absence, my health totally collapsed late last year and ended up seriously ill for just on three months. But I'm back and just had to share this fabulous look.

Like half the grid I tried desperately to get into Project Limited when it opened on January 17th. I had my sights firmly set on a beautifully ornate Limited Edition leather jacket by Lapointe & Bastchilde. Anyone that has been around the grid and knows designers fairly well knows that Lapointe & Bastchilde is synonymous with quality. Finally got in, and braved the horrible lag and a sim restart to find the jacket. There was a demo, but that didn't seem to be working for the women's version. Ummed and arred for a few minutes whether to take the chance on the $699L pricetag or not. Really was a no brainer in the end given the designers name. The jacket has 3 different "patterns' and also comes with the tank top add-on in 6 "patterns". Sadly though this was limited to just 100 copies and is now sold out.

While there I also came across the cute unicorn horn from Panik that I'm wearing. It comes in a variety of colours, with 3 different metals in a pack. To show off the horn and go with the jacket needed a hair that was short, sassy, and centre-parted. This hair by Tableau Vivant was perfect. A fresh heart and metal style necklace by Amorous completed the top half.

Next was to find a skirt that would give the right feel of glam while keeping in style with the tough look of the jacket. This silver skirt by "r2 A/D/E" was just the thing. Last off was the thigh high boots from Beetlebones. Now I was ready to hit the streets in search of some great music.
