I’m happy to announce a couple of new clothing releases from Exile this week. First up is the Undone sweater, a deconstructed sweater frayed around the edges and worn with a contrasting tank top. It comes in 5 color combinations priced at $L75 per sweater, and there’s also an all or nothing pack available where you can buy all 5 sweaters for the price of 4.
If you’re in the market for something a bit more tailored, then the Sidewinder jacket might be the choice for you. Don’t mistake tailored for bland though because the Sidewinder comes in 12 bold colors. This is also a jacket you can easily blend in with other pieces you already own because it comes on all clothing layers. Each Sidewinder jacket costs L$75, but for a real bargain, buy all 12 colors in the all or nothing pack for the price of 10.

Are any of you still looking for that perfect hair for a holiday party? Something festive and a bit glam but still soft and feminine? Exile’s new release Holly is one you’ll want to demo then. Holly is a gorgeous updo made of layered knots all held in place by sprigs of holly. You’ll definitely turn some heads wearing this.
And there’s more to Holly than you might realize at first glance. Don’t think this is a hairstyle you’ll only be able to wear a few days a year. Simply click a sprig of holly to make all of the holly disappear, and then you have an updo that is great for any special occasion all year long. Stop by Exile today to see Holly for yourself.

Yuvi suggested a few things for me as part of the Dress Me Up challenge. “I think you would like some tops from Twosome. They have great drawn-in details like in your leotard there. Shoes from ETD because they are so affordable right now (Starley Pumps?). How about a girly skirt from Tree of SL or BP*?” First I just have to say thanks for making me finally go to Twosome! I’d heard of them a while ago and even passed by the shop at least once, but I’d never shopped there, and I walked away with some great hand drawn tops that are really cheap and also come on every possible clothing layer. They had other items as well like socks and leggings, but it was the tops that really grabbed me on this trip.
I also needed the reminder to stop by ETD before the big sale ends on Dec. 26. I’d totally forgotten that I hadn’t shopped the sale there yet and walked away with several huge packs of clothing and shoes. I decided to pair the Heather boots with this instead of going with pumps. The boots just seemed to keep everything a little more casual, which I liked. This outfit reminds me of the kind of thing I wore to parent meetings back when I was a preschool teacher in real life.
And can you believe that as many times as I’ve been to BP* and have bought furniture and decorative items there, I’ve never ever bought clothing there? This time, however, I went there on a mission to get a cute skirt, and I think this pink patterned one works so well with the Twosome tops I layered. Thank you very much Yuvi for getting me out to some places I’ve overlooked!
