Ok I got a little carried away with putting together the picture for this outfit but when I saw the Geisha belt at Fishy Strawberry it got me inspired. I love the attention to detail in this belt; the multitude of layers as it wraps around your body and the bow at the front and the feeling of dimension when you’re wearing it. There are a multitude of ways you could wear it – with a crisp white collared shirt, untucked with your favoured pair of pants, a 3/4 quarter length dress with a dramatic plunging V neck and shoulder pads (omg they’re back!)
Today I chose to wear mine with a short Cheongsam dress from Asian Inspiration, designed by SheOfTheSourSnailSuckers Sellery. Isn’t this just the most fabulous name ever? I don’t know why but I immediately think of being tipsy on champagne trying to pronounce She’s full name. I’m sure I would be an epic fail but at least I’d entertain my friends trying!
Thanks to Sasy & Whimsy for offering some great suggestions on where to check out, which included Musashi-Do, & Sysy’s

So I finally took the plunge and purchased the Fatpack of Dutch Touch ‘Jolie’ Skins. I’ve seen Iki’s pics on Flickr about someone copying their skins, I truly hope it all gets resolved. On a positive note, I’m all squeeeeeee with my new Fatpack! I loveeeeee all the makeups, they’ve given me great inspiration for new outfits
There are sooooooooooooo many great skin designers inworld at the moment, I was talking with Sasy today who told me she was up to her armpits in new skins to blog. I’d buy new skins every week if I could – the quality is astounding. Keep up the great work Guys! <3
