Santa Girl

Quick explanation into why I don't blog much any more.
Around 18 months ago I inexplicably went into chronic Atrial Fibrillation. Lots of tests later, it was found that my lungs weren't doing so well after lifelong asthma, and many serious bouts of bronchitis and pneumonia. I was put on a bunch of medications which then caused me to get medically induced diabetes a few months later. Fast forward another few months and I got sick with very severe Bronchial Pneumonia which saw me hospitalised for over a month. The damage to my already badly damaged lungs was serious. So serious it has me now in Asthma/Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (ACOS), which in turn has exacerbated my heart and also put me into Congestive Cardiac Failure (CCF).  The combination of these two and the Diabetes has left me in extremely poor health, with frequent hospital admissions.

 I'm not a particularly Christmassy type girl but there has been a few Christmas things that have caught my eye so far this year. One of them being this very cute Santa Girl outfit that is a gacha at The Chapter Four this round. There is six colours, two of which are rares, and only for Maitreya bodies.

The Gitana

This type of look pretty much encompasses not only my view of the world (in a general sense), but also stylistically one of the major influences in my RL look. It is also interesting to me, in a way, as I have often been asked (despite being almost deathly pale skinned in reality) whether I am Greek, or Spanish, and in particular if I am Gitana.

The fabulous top, and skirt drape beautifully, are available separately and are by Foxes. They come in several colours, either with a heavy gold embossing, or with a lighter one as shown here. My only small quibble with the skirt is it would have been better photography-wise if it was also textured inside. For general wear this won't be an issue at all. I paired this with this set made of hanging coins off leather cord headband, necklace, and bracelets by Izzie's (there is also earrings, not shown). These pieces all sat beautifully with little to no modification needed to get a perfect fit. I chose the gold, but there is also silver, and copper.
Both of these are available at Uber until March 23rd.

The skin is a lovely skin called Arabian Nights, made by Lumae. The wavy, freeflowing hair is by Tableau Vivant and is called Wicca. I went with a red/black mix to compliment the colour in the top and skirt. My nails are called "Gloriana" by Adoness. Hands and feet are by SLINK. I mention this as there is an update with quite a lot of changes available for both men's and women's SLINK components.
