If you haven’t already heard there is another new and exciting shopping event in SL called the The Boutique. The Boutique is a themed shopping event with offerings from some of the grid’s most talented and popular designers/creators. This event is brought you by The Liaison Collaborative, a small event company that specializes in organizing intimates, new, and innovate events. The Boutique will runs from March 15 to April 10th. So there’s plenty of time to check out the event and get lots of shopping in!

Several of the items I am wearing are from The Boutique infact. I always love Ikon Eyes, so of course I had to grab a pair of the new Ardent eyes. This round of the event is Cherry Blossoms so many of the items are in beautiful pastel colors, including this adorable clutch from BOOM, I love the flower detailing on it. I’m also wearing a necklace, bracelet, and ring that are part of the beautiful Sakura jewelry set from Cae. The jewels, beads, and metals are all texture change to perfectly match any spring time outfit. And last but certainly not least is the pose I’m using from !bang, which is from the mini series pose set called Carefree. Happy shopping ♥

Spring is in the air and it’s creeping its way into my SL wardrobe. I am guilty of not blogging a lot of colorful items. I typically stick to neutral colors but I was really drawn to this green baseball cardigan when I saw it at COCO. And it’s no surprise that I paired it with some neutral colored items! The shorts I’m wearing from [ Cynful ] have been a wardrobe staple for me because they fit so well and the high rise version doesn’t seem to clip through many of my mesh tops. I paired the shorts with cropped pants from E! Eclectic Apparel because the texture reminds me of leggings and I love to layer. I can never stop myself from buying a cute pair of flats and these black strappy flats from Tee*fy at Fameshed are just adorable.

Izzie’s has released new nails in pretty spring colors and her nails are my go to when I’m not wearing mesh hands. I had been eyeing this pretty little initial necklace from Cae for awhile after seeing it on flickr and other blogger’s posts and finally bought one for myself. Not only is it texture change but you can also change the letter as well. The piercing set is a new release from[-iPoke-] which I highly suggest you go check out, I love the simplicity of it. Since I was trying to change up my look a bit today I’m wearing a different skin than my usual. This particular skin was a past group gift from Mynerva and is meant to be a child avatar skin but it’s just too adorable not to wear. I chose a deep hazel set of eyes from Ikon to compliment the skin tone and hair color. I wanted a darker hair color to compliment the tone of this skin and as I was hunting through my inventory I found this cute, tousled updo from .ploom. I topped off my hair with an adorable headband from Blah. My poses are also from there and Hoshi’s poses are great because they’re cute and work great for blog posts because they’re cute, simple, and display clothes without distorting them.

I know I rambled quite a bit so thank you for reading this far! Another thing I don’t do enough is talk about the clothes and the other items I’m wearing but when I actually do I feel like I go on and on. Anyways, happy shopping ♥
