Tres Beau Warm Cocoa

Tres Beau has done it again.  This new outfit called "Warm Cocoa" is perfect for an icy, snowy day.   The detail is amazing, from the fur on the hat to the cable knit scarf.   I have always found the clothing at Tres Beau to be of very high quality and worth every Linden! 

I am standing in front of my Arabian Knight, my in-world love :)  I keep telling my husband if I could have REAL horses I would not need SL horses!   My earliest Christmas memories are of me asking Santa for a horse.  I did this year after year, "Dear Santa, please send me a horse".  Love, Stacey.   One Christmas I was sure I hear a horse outside and ran to the driveway before I even looked under the tree Christmas morning.  Alas, no horse--it seems my parents and my husband have the same opinion about horses in suburban neighborhoods.

What I am wearing:

Hair- LAQ~[Fair] Black hairbase + Eyebrows
Skin- *League* Amber Medium- Plum
Eyes- Poetic Colors Blue Autumn (former freebie)
Nails- Vextra Ultra shine Nail Polish #1 (coffee)
Shape- Kalnin's Shapes- Elizabeth
Outfit: Tres Beau Warm Cocoa
Boots:  Bax Ankle Boots Brown Suede

A Question of Quality

I have been in SL for a very long time.  Everyone always seems to want to know what first drew you into the world--and oddly enough the reasons seem similar.  I found an article about SL in a journal for my profession.  I was excited, intrigued, and dove in.  It took me WEEKS to get off of orientation island!  I knew no one in SL, but I did have some places to visit that were highlighted in the article.  I was SO hooked.  I still use SL for the purposes of my profession, but my true love, BIG TIME love, is SL fashion. 

On this point I must admit that I am a snob.  There are amazing, talented and creative designers in SL.  There are also beginners (everyone must start somewhere).  I look for quality and creativity in designs, and that is what this blog will be about. 


Today I decided to blog what I was wearing, something comfortable and warm!
