Here are two more of the Christmas presents from Maitreya!
This figure hugging bodycon dress is only in fitmesh for Lara. It’s plunging back is a highlight, and it pairs wonderfully with the boots that were in another of the Christmas presents!
Dress: Draped-Back Bodycon Dress Burgundy by Maitreya
When I saw the name of the fabulous dress from Maitreya that was one of seven Advent gifts for their customers, I went “steak? what?!?” But of course, “filet” is the steak part, and the translation of “mignon” is “small and pretty; dainty”, which I find a very pleasing name for this dress!
Unsurprisingly, as this dress is made by Maitreya, the only size is fitmesh for Lara.
The matching shoes were also one of the seven gifts from Maitreya. The texturing is fantastic!
We had a swimsuit party at Eden the other day. I was going to wear a one piece I’d picked up a while ago, but I showed Aeon what I’d been demoing before I decided to wear the existing outfit. Overnight, she got me a gift card for the one I’d demoed. She is a wonder!
Now girls, I’m going to tell you a secret. If you want something to really fit Maitreya, buy one made by Maitreya! Simple as that. This sexy little one piece comes in one size for Lara (obviously) and you can choose from a number of colors including this green, black, taupe, a quite a few pastel colors in between. Each color is sold separately unless you have the money to burn for the fatpack.
The outfit is marketed as a bodysuit but if this can’t double as a swimsuit, I don’t know what can. If you have a good pair of fitmesh jeans or shorts, you can easily wear this under them as of course it’s fitmesh, and the fit is flawless.
Buying a swimsuit in the middle of winter is a nice way to save money in RL, but you don’t get much of a discount in SL! It’s summer every day in SL somewhere 🙂
This, in my (completely biased) opinion, is the best one piece swimsuit in SL at the moment. It’s made by Maitreya so if you don’t have Lara, you’re out of luck. It’s a little spendy at L$300, but I’ve spent nearly that in real money for a swimsuit in RL, so I can’t complain too much lol
It has a color HUD for the braided straps, but not the swimsuit itself. So select your color carefully!
And getting the strap color right is important if you opt to get the additional kimono cover-up (L$325, hey it was Christmas time 🙂 )
You may have noticed in my last post I have finally purchased the Lara mesh body from Maitreya! It feels like I’ve been saving for ages (probably because I have been saving for ages!)
Although there must be a lot of pictures of this body out there by now, I will add mine, because I’m so excited and can’t resist showing off lol
