Five Easy Pieces

On Your Toes Blog: Five Easy Pieces

I have never been the type to attach an accessory to every possible point or layer random items just because I can, instead dressing my avatar is as easy as 1, 2, 3... 4, 5.  In the same spirit as the popular cooking show 'Five Ingredient Fix', I decided to attempt three looks that have only five clothing and accessory components to them. The basis for each of these looks include the newly released rigged mesh jeans from The Secret Store and brand new footwear by Donna Flora. That left only three additional items per outfit, not as easy as you might think, but still fun!
 
My first look today is a colorful mash-up with a seasonal feel, inspired by the great Hello/Goodbye Floral Bag by DDL here, the soft sunny peach color of the denim and bold blue of the Donna Flora Ermes Pumps work well with the beautiful green shade of the sweater. My final touch was the skinny chocolate colored scarf from Maitreya. The very casual mix of elements here is complimented by the All For Love tresses by Exile, this style is a new release for the current edition of My Attic at The Deck, I love the softly flowing shape of this rigged mesh style.

I love the look of the rigged mesh Leather Biker Jacket from Grasp, it is one of those stores that, sadly, I keep forgetting is there, and when I do visit again I always find something neat, this jacket was no exception. Though the color is described as brown, I found it black enough to go perfectly with the black Rise Skinny Jeans from The Secret Store and these grey Ermes Boots from Donna Flora. For a pop of color underneath I added a Maitreya Bra Top and completed this rock and roll five-some with a funky long necklace from Maxi Gossamer, complete with peace sign.

Things take a considerably sweeter turn when I make three of the five in pretty pinks, from the pastel high waisted jeans in the Candy shade and Pink Ermes Boots, and the soft cropped look of the cardigan sweater. To add some interest I wore a wrinkled and tucked tank from Dutch Touch, and the amazing Ceramic Flower Headpiece from Piddidle, another goodie from My Attic. The outfit has a touch of Hollywood glamour and the ease of casual separates, five more reasons that less can be more.
