Lavender for Good Luck

There's a few things I've learned in life:  always throw salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for good luck, and fall in love whenever you can.
~  Alice Hoffman

Add color to your second life and lavender for good luck with Rosalia, the January group gift from Prism.  With a strappy, form-fitting tank, optional knitted shrug, and coordinating mesh cords, this outfit offers plenty of winter-day warmth as well as a softly feminine sex appeal.  The pants come in seven sizes, so you are sure to find just the right one to hug your curves.  The outfit also comes with a chain belt, which I decided not to wear for this picture.  Prism Designs is free to join and offers stylish monthly gifts.  While you're in the store, check out the freebies on the counter as well! 

I've chosen to accessorize with Burroughs Jewelry's Starlight Dangle Necklace, which I have tinted to match my outfit with the easy-to-use customizing hud.  During the End of Collection, 99L Crazy Sale, you can scoop up some budget-friendly customizable jewels.

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.
