Wintery Jinelle

When Josey woke up and saw the feathery frost on her windowpane, she smiled. Finally, it was cold enough to wear long coats and tights. It was cold enough for scarves and shirts worn in layers, like camouflage. It was cold enough for her lucky red cardigan, which she swore had a power of its own. She loved this time of year.

Perfect for a winter day and for only 60L this weekend, you can scoop up this warm woolen long sleeve dress in a variety of plaid textures.  Although it covers your arms to keep you snugly warm, Jinelle, shown here in gray multi, leaves plenty of sexy legs showing.  I love the added touch of the low riding black belt.

My fresh, lightly freckled skin is Eleonor, the current group gift from Al Vulo.  I decided to apply two testers (yup, free!) from Mock Cosmetics.  First, my eyeshadow is Mock's eshadow in Bright Beige Tester, and I added a touch of Sweet Coral Lipstain from Mock, which is also a tester.  Finally, Mock Cosmetics is having a truck sale on eyeliner right now.  You can get a package of ALL of Mock's eyeliners for only 100L.  Here, I have applied Simpatico Eyeliner in brownish black.  I finished with Andromeda lashes, also from Mock.  The soft makeup complements Eleonor's simple, fresh appearance.

Maitreya's Voluminous Scarf and hair with its softly draped neck shrug provides a welcome warmth against the winter chill.

Can I Keep Him?

While out and about exploring, I found this adorable little guy, and wanted very much to bring him home.  Sigh, but the answer was, "Errrrrrr.....exactly how huge is he?"  Sadly, I had to leave the cub with a kiss on the nose and a fishy snack, but I did get to bring home this sweet outfit.  At only 25L, it was an affordable addition that will easily fit into any closet.  Winter Day's Outfit (Grey) is currently available from Faded Ink on the Marketplace, and includes the sweater, scarf, dark jeans and boots above as well as a sweater dress that I chose not to show.  My shoulder-length Argrace hair falls in soft waves from under the tintable beanie.  My skin, lashes and eyes have all been blogged previously.
