I told you ’bout the swans, that they live in the park

http://I told you 'bout the swans, that they live in the park

Yes, I know the bird in this pic isn’t a swan, but for some reason this image made me think of the line by Cream “I told you ’bout the swans, that they live in the park”.  I never really understood the song, and obviously there’s no swan (though the egret is a beautiful stand-in), but the song is stuck in my head. Now it might be stuck in yours as well lol… At least it’s a great song! So while you’re listening to the soundtrack play over and over in your head (as I am in mine), take a look at what inspired the walk in the park… this insanely gorgeous shabby chique outfit (is it chic or chique? I never know what’s right) and just insanely gorgeous skin… and “notice how the wheel goes ’round…”  (thank you Eric Clapton)   😉

  • Dress:  Graffitiwear – Shabby Chique – Dress, Shawl & Heeled Sandals.  I know I say it a lot, but I really do LOVE this look.  It is totally shabby chique, which to me means that while it has that chic glamour, it’s toned down enough that you don’t need a special occasion to wear it, it can be worn for every day if you want. Yes, the dress itself is on the dressier side, deeply cut in front, slit on the ultra short sides, spaghetti straps; the optional open-work shawl adds the “shabby”, & is just a truly unique piece. And the shoes!!!! High chunky heels with closed backs to an ankle strap & open toes. Two versions of the outfit are available — Dark Shabby or Light Shabby (I’m wearing a tone from the Dark) — each with a HUD of 10 tones each for the dress, shawl, & shoes so you can mix & match if you want.  (See below for the colors.) Sized for Tonic, Belleza F/I/V, Slink H/P, eBody, Maitreya, & Classic.  At the Designer Circle 09/19 April 28th – May 11th. Demo available.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Crimson worn in Cashew, Browless.  Honestly, I’m all out of superlatives, but wow, she’s another knockout. 14 skin tones are available, individually for just 175L each or in fatpacks of dark or light tones for 800L, EXCLUSIVE at the Designer Showcase May 5th – 28th.
