La Rose for Your Valentine (or for You!)

As a girl with a deep love for the type of glamorous fashions worn by Hollywood starlets from the 1940's through the 1960's, I often find myself looking for the same sort of flavor in my clothing selections here in-world. In the newest release of Agnes Finney's La Rose 3 paired with the Xandrah hair by Lyrique shown here in noir, I feel like I'm stepping right out of an old movie set.



This is the third release of La Rose, shown here in a bold black and red. This version of La Rose is created in a black fabric with a sateen sheen, featuring a delicate rose print. The deep red prim rosette on the shoulder contrasts the black bodice which is fitted at the waist with a wide red satin band. Large rosettes adorn the full skirt that falls just at the kneeline, and a pair of red elbow-length gloves serves as the perfect finishing touch to an outfit that will draw the attention of everyone in the room when you enter. I've accessorized here with Cuban Heel Pantyhose in Black from No. 9 Nylons, Stiletto Moody's Bare Lauren in Red, Bloody Queen Rohesia Earrings in Dark Red from Alienbear Designs, a red rose hair ornament from Truth, and as previously mentioned, the Xandrah hair from Lyrique. Lyrique Hats and Hair is a new division of My Precious that offers a variety of chic styles and couture hats and headpieces, and the shop is growing everyday!

La Rose is also available in a pink version and a black and white version and would be the perfect gift with which to treat yourself this Valentine's Weekend! Come to My Precious and check it out along with the other fine fashions available! (Pssst... Many of the red and pink gowns in the shop are being offered at a 40% discount until midnight on Valentine's Day!)
