Stipend - 08/03/08: Ooh, color.

This week I blew my stipend on the Angie dress from Dutch Touch. What I love about DT is that often the outfits will come with extra pieces so that you can switch up what you're wearing. In today's example, the dress came with three extra tops on the jacket layer (as well as the basic top on the shirt layer!) I went in for the olive green set, but I think the ad said something about there being 13 color variations, and I KNOW I saw a bright pink set as well as a tasty rust-colored one. Sets range from $250-$300 depending on the quantity of extras.

Shopping:
Dress: Dutch Touch - Angie in Olive Green ($275)
Shoes: Shiny Things - Belles in Black and Acid
Hair: Shop Seu - Fuafua hair in Apricot Brown (dyed)
Skin: GP - Scene in Opaline

Ruth knows nothing about detonating dirigibles.

Pretty much the first thing I did in SL was tinker with my shape, so I wasn't Ruth for very long. she's...much shorter than Dinah, among other things.

Anyway. As per Alaska Metropolitan's Ruth Challenge, to take the default av of yore and doll her up. This is actually one of my favorite outfits to wander the grid in - maybe not necessarily the most fashionista, but certainly fun!

Shopping:
Skin: GP - Perse in Opaline
Eyes: Miriel - Violet Plant
Hair: Laqroki - LoveAffair in Copper (and then dyed)
Dress: PixelDolls - Across the World in Antique
Goggles: Cyberpunk Apocalypse - Goggles (rotated to be on top of my head)
Earrings: Miriel - Teardrop Earrings in Antique Gold
Shoes: Shiny Things - Ruffle Boots in black
