[dragonriding]

The new Mens Dept might, or not be even better when you've been riding the dragon, but even without being high there's still some stunning stuff to be found. One of them is most certainly 22769's contribution, the mesh Dandy Jackets, that come in 4 different patterns: dragon (shown in the picture), brocade, flames and peacock. You can wear them as is or combine them with one of the 6 'shirtlets' that are also included in the pack to achieve the look seen in the image above. Just note that the shirts cannot be worn alone, and as usual, make sure to grab a demo to check if one of the provided 5 sizes fits you.

Miss bargain hunter

There are so many hunts on the go at the moment that I've been so busy doing them and not finding the time to blog them. Today I managed to sort out my sock drawer of an inventory, so todays post is a little collection of a few of my favourite pieces from various hunts, for 3 different looks.

Take a walk in my boots

I just can't get enough of these boots from Deco, and imagine how excited I was when these white ones appeared on my screen as a fifty linden friday item?! yes I really did squeal! and immediately shot down there to pick my pair up!. Whilst I was there I picked up a TVDH item, which reminded me of other hunt items I had not got around to wearing, so here are a couple of my favourites.

Hair: Free MMR122 hair - black > Boon
Hair bow: Free TVDH item > Mons
Necklace: L$25 gacha item > !1mm
Top: Free TVDH item > Hollipocket
Trousers: L$150 Baggy pants - black > JEM
Boots: 50l friday item > Deco

Who says I can't wear that?

My father! that's who always said that to me in my days as a real life student. So when I picked up these boots  from Deco in the menstuff hunt , I knew instinctively what I would wear them with...I'd wear them with exactly what I would have done when I was a student.
{ "you wear such pretty things then I look down and you've got on some miners old boots, you can't go out looking like that!" ... "urghhh dad!"  - * goes off to sulk and listen to The Smiths* }
  The top part of this outfit is made up of 2 different tops - being a tunic ( from oyakin)  and the long sleeve part is  part of a sweater ( from Emery). Love this tutu style skirt ...which [yes dad] would look sweet with some little ballet pumps.

[chaos in cerise]

They had blocked the end of the street with their cars already, well-knowing that this gathering of hybrids would most likely end up in violence; which wasn't intended, but the emotions on both sides leaned towards flying into a rage when it came to the subject of equality. There would be blood and pain and possibly imprisonment - but he didn't care when he made his way through the barriers to join his friends.
The fight for rights hadn't - and would never be - an easy one.



Luna Jubilee made me search my inventory for 'cerise'... and then for 'red', and in the end for 'pink'. Here's the outcome, shiny and not even covered in blood.
I promise.

[the couturier's loft for men]

The Couturier's Loft is a new event that features only German designers. Every two weeks, the offered goodies are being exchanged, and nothing costs more than 100 L$, which is a real steal deal if you have a closer look at the quality offered. I'm showing you 22769's contribution today, a full outfit called 'Destroyed Denim' that you can snatch up for just 100 L$.


Their offer consists of a ripped jeans with sculpted cuffs and a big, leathern belt, a texture-change leg bandana (you can pick between green, blue or red) and a petrol-blue shaded shirt with an interesting sleeve solution. The white embroidery on front and back gives it a nice, ethnic touch and adds a delightful contrast to this urban looking outfit.

Outfit: 22769 - Destroyed Denim Outfit (at The Couturier's Loft)
Shoes: *DECO* - Test Boots Brassy

[lotn: red right hand]

Take a litle walk to the edge of town
Go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms,
like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires,
in the humming wires...


Hey man, you know
you're never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge,
past the mills, past the stacks
On a gathering storm comes
a tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with
a red right hand.
