View from the Mesa

Her eyes were those of someone who's just fallen in love, someone who sees nothing but her lover, someone who has no fear of anything. The eyes of someone who believes that every dream will come true, that reality will move if you just give it a push.

~ Banana Yoshimoto, Asleep

It's that special weekend of the month when group members can pick up Ikon's latest gift.  Mesa, January's offering, has a clear, luminous intensity that is unparalleled.  The group is free to join, but this month's free eyes will be available for just a few days, so don't put off your visit.

While browsing the Marketplace, I came across Eve White Lace, this flirty lace corset with airy, romantic flexi sleeves.  Now, since it's January and rather nippy outside, I was glad to don the jewel-tone shrug in an emerald shade which is included.  The package offers sweaters in a rich, purple tone and a pink shade in addition to the green, as well as lace pants, coordinating earrings and brooches, which I opted not to show.  Instead, I chose to wear casual white capris from Jeanne Moulliez's Aqua Halter and White Capris, a sweet Marketplace freebie.   My silver and diamond necklace from Mistwood Jewels provides the perfect, budget-friendly accessory for only one linden.
