Hello there, Fabulous Readers! In the midst of holiday shopping, Rip and I decided to take a break over at Etchaflesh. A few days ago, in my post [HERE], the pupster and I featured a stylish vest we picked up at the store, and we decided to return today to camp awhile. We were very well rewarded!
Pick Your Poison
While Ripley happily gnawed on a bone, I relaxed for just 35 minutes in one of the plush chairs arranged along the back wall of the store. Right when the time elapsed, this cozy Poison sweater joined my inventory. In addition to the knitted pullover, the free prize package included a HUD with 15 color choices for changing up the texture of the arms. Featuring a scooped neck line, long sleeves, and a realistic ribbed texture, this sweater is destined to become a winter wardrobe staple for me. I appreciated its generous length, which ensured my tummy stayed toasty warm.
What’s Included:
- fitted mesh
- standard sized mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L
- alpha layers for both mesh styles
- Texture HUD for the sleeves
Avoiding a Cuff Malfunction
I wanted to don a pair of boots to wear while romping with Ripley through the snowy climate of It All Starts With a Smile. The only problem was the bottom edge of my pants poked right through the sides of my boots …. one of those dreaded SL wardrobe mishaps that never occurs in real life. After a quick perusing of the Marketplace, I netted this Purrrvy Skinny Jeans applier from the IGNOTO store for only 25L. Although I applied the jeans on my Maitreya Lara mesh body, they are also designed for Belleza, Slink, and Omega. With a flattering fit, detailed stitching, and a dark denim wash, these jeans are perfect for casual wear, or they can be easily dressed up with the right layers and shoes. Best of all, they behave themselves, and don’t project through my boots. Yay!
As you can see in my photo, Ripley and I have a few packages to deliver before nightfall, so we’d better get pedaling. Until next time, happy shopping!

I will never figure out how you girls are able to make Maitreya work with clothing that are not Maitreya friendly. Goodness! 😉 Great post and a cute outfit. TY!

I agree, she put together such a cute look with this post. I was going to wait and let Kat reply to this but I was worried you’d think she had ignored your kind comment. Kat’s had to be away temporarily but no worries, she’ll return, and I know she’ll really appreciate your compliment 😀
