I went to the Aoharu sale and picked up a few things, including this dress. I quite like it, though the sash at the top was a bit of a pain to adjust for my shape for some reason. There's a nice detail of lace overlay that really adds some depth to the dress. The shoes are also from Aoharu. The style is very cute, but I'm not fond of how much of my toes show at the top of the shoe. I don't know if that is a foot size issue or the particular skin I have on - or if it is actually the shoe. Otherwise, they are quite lovely!
Alexandra Nichols dropped a large review package on me a while back - and the jewelry I'm wearing is from her shop Dahlinks. Its a bold set called "The Management". I imagine you could wear it with a business suit, thus the name - though I wore it with something a bit more formal. The black jewels featured in the set are lovely, well textured and nicely shaped. The gold is a bit darker than I usually wear, but it seems to work for this ensemble. I'm wearing the bracelet and the ring in the set, there are matching earrings as well that aren't shown.
My only real qualm is the fact that they are no mod. I very rarely wear jewelry without having to adjust it in some way, so I strongly prefer mod jewelry. These pieces don't have resize scripts in them either, so if something happened to not fit well you would really just be stuck. Hopefully she has demos to try in the store so you can see how the pieces fit you. I've not been there yet, but I plan to go. Alexandra has another set that I really like that will be featured in another post, so I want to see what else tempts my eye there. All in all, worth checking out Dahlinks!

Thank you Molly for reviewing TEH Management Set. In regards to the items being no mod. 'Most' of my men's jewelry does have a resizer script or is available in 3 sizes. My women's glitteries I hand build on my own avatar and I have found that they fit 95% of my customers. For those people that they don't fit I am more than happy to do a custom fitting free of charge. All the person needs to do is drop me a notecard with the transaction details and give me a few avatar shape details when I IM them back. I am looking at using a resizer more but one of the issues I face is that most of the prims I use can't get any smaller :)
Thanks for the info Alex! I'm glad to know you offer fittings if needed - that really puts my mind at ease to purchase :) Looking forward to checking out more of your lovelies!
