Every year, regardless of whether I am in a relationship or not, I have ALWAYS hated Valentine’s Day. I hate the commercialism of it all and am a big believer that we should show our love for others throughout the year, not just on a designated day. Anyway, if you are enjoying your Valentine’s Day, I am really not trying to get you down. And, trust me, I love pinks and reds as much as the next person, but I think I’ve seen enough of it this week. So, here’s my best Anti-Valentine’s Day mashup of blue and purple…enjoy!
I found this awesome denim jacket at **en Svale**, and I couldn’t pass it up. I love denim jackets, and this one is exquisite, with extreme attention paid to the details in the prim cuffs and collar. I added this beautiful purple turtleneck sweater from *KUROTSUBAKI* underneath the denim jacket, which provides quite a contrast and a rich punch of color. The cuffs and collar of the jacket wouldn’t allow me to add the cuffs and neck of the turtleneck sweater, so I instead opted to add this all-purpose scarf from BareRose.
I found this gorgeous skirt at **DP**yumyum, which remains one of my favorite stores on the grid. I’m a big fan of its kawaii selection, and I have been coveting this skirt for a while. So, I bought the fat pack and played around with the different colors until I found this beautiful blue skirt, and I couldn’t take it off. I absolutely love the lovely stripes, glossy texture, and the sexy, flattering waistline, complete with adorable buttons. This skirt really makes the outfit, and I just love it! I know I tend to gravitate toward skirts alot, especially lately, but I just can’t get enough of the high quality ones out there, especially this one.
For boots, I really wanted a nice tall purple boot. I already owned the purple billow boots from Maitreya, but the shade of purple wasn’t exactly right. So, I treated myself to a new pair of gorgeous Kensington boots from - TESLA -. The shade of purple was a perfect match to the turtleneck sweater, and you just can’t beat the beautiful details and fit of these boots. I’m a huge fan of these and will definitely go back to get more colors soon!
For accessories, I added a few cute little heart accents for you hardcore Valentine’s Day fans out there. ~flirt~ is having a sale at its Retrology location, so I headed over there and grabbed these adorable Hearts&Diamonds bracelets and earrings. They are texture-changeable through a menu, with an assortment of beautiful semi-precious stones from which to choose. I, of course, chose turquoise, and I think it adds quite a bit of punch to the wrists and ears. Since, the jacket cuffs are set to the same location as these bracelets, I copied the bracelets and reset their locations to the hands, edited, and VOILA! Easy peasy way to get around items with conflicting attachment points!
I also wanted to add that I’m wearing the new updo from Diversity Hair. I love this hairstyle, and I’m now addicted to the red textures offered at Diversity. I’ll definitely be back to grab more!
Happy Valentine’s Day! Or Anti-Valentine’s Day! Whatever floats your boat!
