Emychan Aichi reached out to me about her
CandyMetal store recently + guess what? She generously offered to assemble some pieces I liked together in a
$1L gift for us!
*mwuahs Emychan Aichi*
The russet-yellow streaks of this fiery-orange miniskirt instantly caught my eye; a simple dark blue-gray shirt on top provided a dark contrast to really let these striking colors pop. A treacherous "spike" belt (it's mod, yay!) added a fun + random touch (you get another belt with headphones included in the gift too).
Here's a closer look at this skirt; check out the mini flames detail across the front.
Le kyoot.
I wanted some tall boots to set off this look + I must say that I fell in
lurves with the
free riding boots by
Nova that my good friend
Linda Mensing recently blogged on her wonderful blog
here. *
mwuahs Linda Mensing* The muted black satin finish lends an elegant feel to this classic long boot; the single ankle loop + rounded toe shape is nice too.
Gavin's black button-down shirt is also by
CandyMetal (this was his pick, which
Emychan has also graciously set out for
$1L). --
Gavin doesn't usually rock the "deep V-neck" look, but this wrinkled 3/4-sleeve shirt, paired with
Gavin's fave
Aoharu vintage denim, exuded a sexy, casual cool men's look. (There's also a more fitted pair of jeans included in the
$1L gift too).
Gavin's accessory of choice here?
Mouth condoms! This is 1 of several fun dollarbies at
CandyMetal (there's a whole wall in back). There's various shiny "latex leggings" up for
$1L grabs too (I never owned any so-called "liquid leggings" during that whole '80s fashion throwback in RL, but the black in particular reminded me of those). This
$1L mouth condom, tagged saucily with the word
"LOVE" in bright, colorful packaging, is 'specially for all you frisky avis. Safety first!
A huge
*muwahs* to
Emychan for setting out such lovely gifts for all us
frugalistas. Love + fashionista kisses to all!
xoxo

Then the group gifts!! There are more group gifts and freebies too! And like I said, the items are cheap so buy stuff!! The hair is a previously blogged 2L fat pack from Junwave that is totally worth a second showing :)
Worn:
Oh and 2L fat packs at Junwave? Yesssss! There are two more 2L fat packs and another style with two colors at 2L each. There is also a group gift, lucky boards, picks rewards, AND many styles are currently 50% off.
I'm wearing a cute $1L bikini gift by T Junction (tons more $1L gifts here too, plus a discounted T-shirts wall + 2 lucky boards), which I paired with one of my fave jeans of the moment, these lowrise free "Dos70" jeans by Poison @ Mirrors Edge (at 70 count lockdown, this MM board has been locking nearly every day; definitely worth a slap). Love the dark wash on these. The hearts body tattoo is 1 of 2 that you can win for free at the Kanival lucky dance platforms + the chunky gold necklace is part of Glam Affair's recent $1L gift.
Mary is wearing one of the free outfits you can win in the SK Designs lucky chair. This supercasual shorts + ripped tank look is great for when you just don't feel like glamming it up. Mary's black ankle strap heels are the free Vextra Messings Design gift for the Shoes & Accessories Hunt.
Gavin's look is a mix of some nice free men's jeans he found in the Ema's Secret lucky chair and one of the T-shirts in the Mayden Couture $1L men's gifts (the small, slanted gold script on the front is a cool touch). Gavin's black boots are the free Nardcotix men's gift for the Shoes & Accessories Hunt. Check out the leather texturing + quality on these.
Not sure what Gavin was doing to poor Mary here but she sure didn't like it.
Hope everyone gets some quality time with friends (and shopping!) in this weekend. Love + fashionista kisses to all!
