She liked the moon because, like herself, it shined its brightest when no one was around to see. ~Authour Unknown

As the storyline goes, Du Petit Lac Des Cygnes is located in the Southwest area of France at the foot of the Pyrenees mountain range.  Having lived on regions surrounded by water, this is an ongoing learning experience for me.  It’s tested my terraforming abilities to be sure.  The actual lake for which the build is named takes up over 1/4 of the region.  The Chateau and the grounds surrounding it takes up almost 1/2 with the farmhouse turned cafe/winery along with the vineyard and orchard comprising the remaining area.  Landscaping as always takes up much of the land impact in my builds.  In the above photograph, I am standing near one of two walls of fountains that enclose the pool area.  It’s still a work in progress for the most part, and so over the top but I love it! Maybe I’ll have this place open before the year is out lol.  Be kind to one another.  TWMA♥

Be faithful to your own taste, because nothing you really love is ever out of style. ~ author unknown

The above quote along with five others that pertain to style and fashion can be found on my profile inworld.  These are quotes that keep me grounded and focused when shopping for anything in Second Life, and 1st life too.

I recently did a thorough cleaning of my closet in 2nd (which I do a couple times every year),  hanging on to those pieces I felt were classic in their overall design, and that I would wear again and again.  It made no difference if it was standard mesh, fit mesh, or mesh made specifically for my body.  If it was still relevant to me, I kept it and packed up the rest.

According to the properties menu, I acquired the above gown on March 3, 2013.  That was five years ago.  Today I’d put this gown up against any of the recently purchased gowns I’ve bought, or for that matter any new release on the grid. It’s still current, and a elegant work of art.  And still available in store.

The hairstyle by Vanity Hair is another keeper.  Purchased November of 2012 it was one of the first mesh hairs I ever bought.  At the time I thought it elegant and classic in style.  My opinion has not changed.  Classic pieces stand the test of time… Every time.

Be kind to one another.  TWMA♥
