1 Stripe, 2 Stripe, 3 Stripe, 4

Stripes have been popping up all over the grid lately + we fashionistas have been gobbling 'em up like the fresh roasted turkey meat that we's a-gonna be enjoying in a few weeks. With stuffing + sides. Yum.
Twisted & Spoiled's newest group gift is this striped deep V-neck tank + these superlow-slung, unbuttoned jeans. I'm really digging this dark, smoky plum color. This store's gifts are always so generous (typically including an accessory or three); this time it's a corded leather necklace with cute beads that totally works with this casual look.

I've been liking the body "glow" on the free Bishwear skins + this one is no exception. (It's hard to tell, but the dark eye makeup lightly "runs" at the corners -- such a smexeh touch). I love how this warm, light latte skin tone totally works with today's $50L Fridays hair from Lamb. Aren't these heavy fringe bangs supaflirty? I love today's stripey scarves from Artilleri for $50L Fridays. You get 2: the peachy melon + the silvery blue/cherry combos are so yums.
In other news, I have found my new favorite shoe: the brand-new open-toe "Boudoir" bootie by Kalnins. OMG do I heart these. The heel-to-shoe ratio is pencil-thin smexeh and I drool over these luscious, suparealistic textures. The color-change HUD is the joy for those of us who love to obsess about color details. *drives me-self crazy with seemingly infinite color combos nom nom nom*
The next Ode To Stripe is a flirtatious green number I found at SK Designs. This sexygear store has bordering-on-scandalous designs + a whole discount area on the top floor near the lucky chairs. I paired this sweater with the playful, raspberry-striped Strayer scarf, complete with little-girl star patches + large stitching seams. It's superflowy when you wear it too, which makes wearing it way fun.
This $50L outfit came complete with pretty thigh-high striped wooly socks. The ribbony stripes are so pretty+ I love the bare midriff. Who says winter has to be practical? Not me! I also added shiny black stomping boots + this free supacute gold-striped "corset purse" from House of Sanu.
Winter Moon's store closing has many people shedding a few tears, including moi. *sniffs* Everything is now $50L + there are some good finds here. This $50L "Scrum" dress is ripped in multiple places + even comes with its own holey stockings. I've been living for these Fishy Strawberry torn net ones however (love how the long, single seam crawls right up the hiney) so I paired those with this dress instead.
Don't even get me started on these N-Core superhigh schoolgirl heels with ruffled white anklet socks. I've had them forever and they are still. The. Smex.
We never do this, but Gavin + I did the matchy-matchy thing last night. I'm wearing a free Djunk dress that's not new, but still remains one of the hands-down fiercest stripey finds right now (aren't these green & gray stripes delish?) Definitely go grab it if you haven't already; it also comes in several other eye-popping colors. (While you're at it, scoop everything else, at both locations. Everything. Is. Free. Your inventory might not thank you, but you will feel drunk with power).
Gavin has been eyeing this black & white striped polo from Sey + he finally scooped it last night. Doesn't he look amazing in it?
I love Sey's edgy-yet-elegant styles, especially for men. Something about their designs makes the hipster thing look totally flawless + elegant. This black belt is spot-on with this look (good job G! Hee). Gavin finished this look with his fave SoReal sneaks.
Too bad we didn't come upon any giant striped candy canes last night. We did, however, discover some giant striped pink teddy bears at Tigerclaw (another everything is free store).

Love + fashionista kisses to all!
