But it begs a question
How did I ever find you
Drifting gently through the gyre
Of the great Sargasso sea, Atlantic Ocean
Got me writing love songs
With a common refrain like this one here

~ “Left Handed Kisses” by Andrew Bird (featuring Fiona Apple)

I just got tickets to see Andrew Bird, and I am thrilled. So of course, I feature a song from Andrew Bird for my blog. (And I also got tickets for Sturgill Simpson, so I am just one spoiled girl this spring.) Of course, a love song should be written for this gorgeous dress from leenfantterrible (who is not French, apparently), fit perfectly to the Maitreya body and with a great flower motif at the hem and a beautiful spring color that exudes sunniness and chic. I paired Maxi Gossamer’s newest necklace for Collabor88 with the look and sexy strappy heels from Saki Galliazo that have a HUD that let me match them to the look. A little handbag with posies from Juno Martel finishes off my look.

The Skin Fair opens to everyone tomorrow, but today was a preview for Skin Addiction members (among others). The sims were jam packed with people, and here’s hoping it will abate so the rest of the grid can attend. Below are maps and central landmarks:

I chose to use Umazuma Metaluna’s gorgeous applier for the Logo Sadie mesh head for my look. It’s really important to make sure you get the right applier for the right Logo head because they vary so much. (A few weeks ago I tried an applier made for the Alex head on the just-released Sadie, and I would say it didn’t come out well).
