I never knew the charm of spring
Never met it face to face
I never new my heart could sing
Never missed a warm embrace
April in Paris, chestnuts in blossom
Holiday tables under the trees
April in Paris, this is a feeling
No one can ever reprise
Ah, April in Paris. The Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the shopping… *le sigh*
This lovely ensemble is the April group gift from Dressed by Lexi. The group is free to join, and you get the sweater, tank, and skirt in both mesh and system layer. My Summer Hat is a free gift from DBL – no group needed. These Classic Pearls are a free gift from Lazuri; I’ve worn them a couple of times before, so I apologize for the repeat, but they’re so versatile. I really love all the color options! My MaryJane Heels are a group join gift from Slink (free to join). I completely forgot about them until a few days ago when Gavin joined the Slink group and received them as a gift, but he thought they’d look better on me, instead! 😉 My clutch purse is from Wanda’s, and is a fabulous deal for only 20L. It is color-change with so many different options that I finally gave up trying to count them all!
Not free alert: I finally made the leap onto the mesh hands bandwagon, and all I can say is, “Wow!” I’ve always hated SL’s avatar hands, and they look hideous in photos. Anyway, I stayed up way past my bedtime last night testing them out because they’re so amazing. One click of [:Tuli:]’s texture HUD and I was ready to go. But… then I needed nails, so I headed over to My Attic to pick up Izzie’s new applier, which works for both fingers and toes. Super easy.
I feel Paris Fabulous now. 🙂
