Bustle Me!







Not being inworld much at the moment has curtailed my shopping habit. So for this post I have resorted to trawling the depths of my inventory.

I have a penchant for bustles and as such was delighted to rediscover this cute, wonderful dress from Miel…the Oh Leafy Dress. A simple tulip top, with or without shoulder vine/leaf detail, compliments a sculpty mini skirt beautifully. The skirt is a work of art. From the front it appears to have a leafy underskirt or hem. However, the star is the back of the skirt: a mini, layered bustle. Fabric layered with net layered with leaves. Beautiful! The leafy motif is echoed across the dress itself as a print. Clever, well designed and executed piece of clothing.

I kept the rest simple. N-Core Temptation shoes in black, a PXL Grace natural skin and Fri.day’s Anna hair in scornful red.

Hmmm, maybe not so simple, I added Zaara’s new Kashiti bobble ring and ellabella’s Pearls A’bloom bindi for a touch of glamour.

All shots were taken leaning against Voodoo Shilton’s wall at his music instrument shop…killer wallpaper and a bored moment work wonders…lol.
