::LikeA:: And :SEY Join Forces

::LikeA::, one of my favourite jeans makers in Second Life®, finally released their first original mesh jeans in 5 colours/designs. To celebrate the occasion they moved their Main Store to the GREED Sim known for being the home to another one of my favourite makers of mesh apparel: :SEY. 

:SEY just released their new “Gilet (Vest)+T-shirt combination”. The selection consists of  7 differently styled pairs of vests with each offering an incredible amount of wear (long arm/short arm tee or no tee) and colour/tinting/print options for the t-shirts via HUD, so it was a natural choice to combine both releases to create tonight's looks called “Bad Boy” and “Nice Boy”, lol. Enjoy!

ALB Dream Fashion meets Lapointe & Bastchild

When I received a copy of the highly detailed new Zip Leather Pants from Lapointe & Bastchild I knew I had to match them with a more extravagant style of jacket than usual to do them justice. Fortunately, the Marvin Jackets from ALB Dream Fashion, which were released a short while ago, were just what I was looking for.

To complete my look I used the newly released Walker Boots from REDGRAVE. Have a nice shopping weekend, guys!
