Safari Style

Some lovely items today from 22769 for the Safari theme at The Boutique.  The Dress and Skirt/top are both available in various colors and as usual from 22769 at very affordable prices during the event. All shoes are by BSD Design Studio - The Modern Chic Geometry model is perfect for Summer, while the Glam Supermodel Gold matches perfectly with 22769's dress and bangles. BSD is sponsoring Shoe Fair and that is an event you don't want to miss for the latest shoe releases (and the occasional gift sprinkled around).

The two stunning shapes here are by Baholi and you can get them through tomorrow at the amazing price of just 55l over at Fi* Friday. I'm blogging them with the latest gift skin from Hush Skins and a new release from Aeva, that is available this week for just 75l. The hair from Wasabi Pills (new release) and Miamai (free) is from Hair Fair, but I doubt you need any reminders to visit that event...
