January Seasonal Accessorizing

Brighten a winter coat or jacket by adding a flower corsage in a rich, vivid color.  Carry a muff and repeat the flowers on the muff, or match your gloves or handbag to the flowers.

Top This Madra Lord
Monolithic Studios' grande dame Miss Madra Lord accents her tweed car coat with dramatic roses matched to the piping on her handbag.  The corsage is actually the hair ornament from Ashton Drake's Pinque Passion evening ensemble.  Hat, jacket, skirt, and scarf are from The Couture Touch.  Handbag and gloves are from Sandra Stillwell.  Top This Madra Lord, enhanced with an Integrity articulated body, is from Ashton Drake.

Lady Director Ivy Jordan
Director Ivy Jordan wears a tweed wool suit ensemble updated with rich florals that were salvaged from Ashton Drake's The Perfect Gift.  The fur collar from Sandra Stillwell's Lotta Moola costume was fashioned into the dramatic muff.  Suit is from Ashton Drake.  Gloves from Sandra Stillwell.  Suede, detachable, wrist gauntlets were added to the gloves.  Hat, ascot, belt, bar pin, and gauntlets are from The Couture Touch.  Lady Director Ivy Jordan is from Integrity.
