dress me up | Achariya Maktoum

This is my first post for the dress me up challenge issued by Achariya Maktoum:

Wow ! You always look so amazing, and have such a wide range, that it’s tough for me to think about what you might not know yet!
Aha, I know. How about a steampunk ensemble from Curio Obscura. Or a high Victorian costume from To a T. And a hat from Hatpins.
♥ I know you’re going to look awesome.

I started by Achariya’s suggestion and went for steampunk from Curio Obscura because I really couldn’t imagine myself in a Victorian costume. I wished I knew more about steampunk and would love to dress more accordingly to the theme. I am fascinated by steampunk since I read an article by Catero Revolution but I am not at all a connoisseur.
I searched for a location inSL that would suit the theme and also the dress I picked. After spending a while gridhopping, I found a Vintage Village in Verdigris: Vintage Village – a space of the European building traditions – Community place for the SL’s most outstanding antique creators, the most creative builders, and the oldie’s lovers.

    Great look for you, Ana…and great suggestion, Ach! Don’t you love the copper stockings? I’ve had them forever and am constantly looking for ways to incorporate them. xoxo

    I especially love the picture with the faded lighthouse in the background. It’s totally charming to see you in this lolita outfit and those great tights. ♥ Cheers!
