It all started from this new set of Gems and Kisses necklace and bangles I got at the Accessory Fair. Gems and Kisses has a new series of colourful necklaces and bangles that are sold at the Accessory Fair store that comes in a whopping 18 colours (3 fat packs of 6 colours each are also available) and necklaces and bracelets are sold separately so you can mix and match what you want to fit your taste.
I was in a mood for colours and a fun look and I was also looking for a good way to style a new pair of cool sneaker boots I got from Chapeau Tres Mignon (yes I know this is a hat store but these boots were sold there!). So I decided that “yellow” will be my theme today.
I also just got these sunglasses…..in fact two of them from Haysuriza which looked really cool and came with HUDs that allowed you to change the lens (yes I know this time, Haysuriza IS a shoe store but Hays just released these sunglasses. How confusing). What I liked in particular was the shape of the sunglasses which were really well made. Here I wore both of them to show both designs. For this particular look, however, I would go with the RetroCat No.3, which is the one with white frame and classic design.
The newly released pants from Tutti Fruitt were a perfect match to create a fun and funky look with its wild colours that sort of reminded me of the 60’s fashion. Tutti Frutti is a great store for those looking for fun pants as the store has a series of funky pants you can choose from. And to pull everything together, I chose a simple black tank top with a Sid & Nancy print on the front.
Top: Emery, Tank Sid & Nancy
Pants: Tutti Frutti, Pop Girl Low Rise Jeans
Necklace: Gems and Kisses, Discovery of Mars (yellow)
Bangles: Gems and Kisses, Rings of Saturn (yellow)

Kuri Style is one of my favorite Japanese stores. It has lots and lots and LOTS of cute, pretty outfits that are lovely in colours and very sweet in designs. I can spend hours (and lots of Lindens) in her store because every time I go there, it becomes a harsh battle within myself not to click on too many vendors.
BUT…..this was certainly a must buy!
The store currently has some items marked down to TWO Lindens. Yes only L$2! You can’t choose the colour, however, since only one of the colours available will be marked down. But what can you complain with this price?
This was one of such marked down mini dresses that I bought. This olive coloured dress (although the creator calls this brown) was one of the three colour variations that also included red and blue. But this one was the best in my personal opinion so I would have bought this colour even if it wasn’t marked down.
The design is rather classic and has rich gold embroidery that decorates a nice tailored design. It also comes with the lace inner shirt and the gray tights with a paisley print that I am wearing here. I loved the texture of this tights and I think this can also be a useful item that can be styled with many other outfits.
I know Clothing Fair has just started and many of you might be spending more than you should. LOL But all the more, a L$2 outfit that looks great will be something that can satisfy your retail craving without hurting your wallet.
Of course, that is, IF you can resist not buying all the other stuff. *grins*
Outfit: Kuri Style, No.225 Napoleon Jacket (brown)
Earrings: Gems and Kisses, Gems In The Night, Gold Earrings
Nails: Flirts, Metal Girl Collection, Solid Gold
Hair: Sadistic Hacker, Tamaki 2 (black)
Boots: Courtisane, Allumeuse Boots (olive)

Thanks to Julie Hastings’ wonderful photography, I won the April cover. 🙂
The theme was Harajuku Fashion and we had to choose from either “Gothic Lolita” or “Visual-kei” which literally means “visual category” in Japanese. This is a fashion that spread in Japan from music bands that wore cute or elaborate fashion and these bands became known as “Visual-kei bands” because they not only provided musical entertainment but also “visual entertainment” as well.
I chose to go with the “Visual-kei” category and had so much fun styling this! It also helped that I live only 20 minutes from Harajuku in RL and grew up visiting the place on my weekend fashion explorations.
Thank you Julie for a wonderful photograph! I had so much fun styling this and it was a great team work!

Then here is another one. Demise by Nagaru Kawashima. Nagaru used to make a lot of tattoos and when I met him, he had a much smaller store. On February 13, he just opened his new main store which is now much bigger!
When you enter his store, you will see vendor posters of male models so you might think it’s a store for men’s fashion. Demise, however, has vendors where you can buy the outfits for men and also for women and most of his designs are unisex. So it’s a great store for women who love to dress up in cool outfits or for couples who want to dress in the same outfits.
Also, like his new release, Belial, Nagaru arranges his vendors so you can buy the jacket alone or in a set where you get EVERYTHING! And I mean EVERYTHING. This Belial set, for example, gives you everything from undershirt layer tattoos to two different shirt colours, jacket, jacket bottom (which makes it look like a long coat which I didn’t wear in the pictures here), a tie (which I am not wearing here either)…..all sorts and you can mix and match them the way you like. Here are some samples of how you can style with this set.
For those that prefer something more simple, you can just buy the jacket and a pair of jeans and a shirt.
The designs from Demise also go very well with jewelry from Rozoregalia which I posted previously. Here, I am using a Vinca necklace from Rozoregalia but an Archelon necklace and earrings go well with this too.
Outfit: Demise, Belial
Necklace: Rozoregalia, Vinca Necklace
Earrings (pierce): Rozoragalia, Vinca Pierce
Hair: Sadistic Hacker, Tamaki 2 (black)
Nails: Body Politik, Midnight Manicure
Boots: Redgrave, Girl’s Biker Reloaded (black/silver)
