Dancing With Myself

I truly had no idea which way this week's look would go.  I frantically searched my closet for anything to use this week.  I didn't think you'd all let me get away with a sheet twice...plus a grey sheet...well, that's just...not very Aeva!

So off into my closet I dove, searching for grey, gray, smoke, pewter, iron, steel and was about to give up and look for the sheet again when I said..."Hmm, let me try silver."  See, I had found some stuff...an old grey sweater...I know I know...I can hear you all going..."Oh god no...Not another sweater"...but nopes, I didnt wear the sweater...you're all shocked silent, I can tell.  Oh...I digressed again...*coughs*...as I was saying...

I found some stuff.  The aforementioned sweater, a pair of leggings, some dove grey stockings, a pair of slacks...but nothing called to me and said..."Pick me...pick me!"...I think the jig is up and my closet has grown fearful of my weekly forays and advised all the colors to take a vow of silence.  But apparently no one told silver this and there I found a sparkly pretty mesh dress that was the perfect shade.  I twisted my hair up, added in one of my favorite jewelry sets and threw on some simple black pumps and I was ready for some dancing....by myself unfortunately...oh well...if it was good enough for Billy Idol, it's good enough for me!

Dance on fashionistas, dance on!

A Trio of Delights

RL has been kicking my behind up one side and down the other and I was terribly behind in my postings.   I decided to set aside an evening of nothing but posties and piccies and buckled down, tore thru my closet and caught myself back up...yay!...*collapses and directs you to the pictures*

First up is St. Patrick's Blue and while I know my outfit is a tad off the swatch, it was as close as I could make it.  I had fun putting this outfit together and actually pulled in elements from 4 different outfits...I'm a mix and match champion!

I love the soft knit of this sweater and how its perfect for when I want to curl up with a good book...or lay back and daydream about emo vampires named Edward.  Did I say that out loud?...*coughs*...credits please

And finally we have Royal Purple.  You might need to sit down for this one...I went a little crazy and out of the norm for me.  Not a sweater dress to be found anywhere even close by.  

This color just screamed for something sexy and wild and so I dug in the back recesses of my closet for my rarely used latex selections and shimmied my way into this sexy little number.  A pair of ballet boots had me dancing on my tippy toes as I swayed to the beats pulsing in the club add in some fun purple jewelry and a quick dye job and  *twirls* the Purple Passionista is ready to rock the club. RAWR!

The Amazing Aquamarine!

I had the idea to do something a little different this week.  The color aquamarine is definitely one that was wowsa bright!, but I knew I had it in my inventory, lol.

I have always loved the old time Burlesque & Vaudeville era photos and lucky for me I had one in this week's color.  We won't mention I also have a few other colors too...*coughs*...I did say I like the theme after all.

This look was very easy to bring together at the outfit from Phoenix Rising has everything you need.  All I had to do was add a dashing top hat, some pretty jewels and a pair of classic black pumps and voila...abracadabra, The Amazing Aquamarine is here to perform for you.  Please remember to tip your waitstaff and try the veal...I'll be here all week!

Back Through the Looking Glass

I have a confession to make.  With the exception of a slight loop thrown by Week 3's electric indigo color, I've really not had a tough time with the colors so far.  Frankly I've quite enjoyed them!!

Alice in Wonderland has long been one of my favorite stories and so when I saw this week's color, my first impulse was to go full blown frills, ruffles, petticoats and bows.  But then I came up for air and thought...hmmm...what about if I take Alice back through the looking glass to her own time and she's all grown up now?  Maybe a young professional?...still with that air of innocence, but a grown-up now?

I found this sweater quite by accident.  I was out window shopping when I walked past it and my eyes were drawn immediately.  First. it's a sweater, and you all know my love for sweaters, second it was the most perfect shade of pale pale blue ever.  I didnt even bother browsing my inventory first to see if I already had something in Alice Blue...I bought the sweater on the spot and skipped home to create my look.

I've been doing dresses for the past few weeks and so I decided straight away that I wanted slacks for this look.  I admit it was not without its giggle inducing moments that decision.  I had to fight my natural gravitation towards skirts as I browsed my closet.  I'd say..."ooo..pretty skir...demmits...pants Aeva, pants...focus girl!"

I found this slightly vintage pinstriped pair from Coco in the perfect shade of grey in the back of my closet...perfect compliment to the sweater and really kept the look I was going for.

My favorite pair of peep toes from Maitreya and a few strands of blue pearls and I was ready for my trip.  The last item I grabbed were the silver glasses the Mad Hatter gave to me one day at our afternoon tea.  They are without a doubt my most prized possession and I cherish them most deeply.
