The Around The World Blogger Challenge - Chicago

This week for The Urban Couture Fashionistas Around The World Blogger Challenge, the letter is C! There is a brand mew sim that opened up themed after 1920s Chicago! I was wanting to do  Chicago and was stumped as to how I would capture its essence. I didn't even search the sim and I saw another blogger on the FabFree Blog  had been and had great finds! So, I set  out  on a venture of my own!

This dress is from Cilian'gel and the color and design is pretty, feminine and very realistic to the garb worn in that era. It comes with another hat but I felt this hat from ElaiStar matched so much better!

 I dreamed of being a Billie Holiday of that era and landing in Chicago, fresh from the South being given the chance to woo the North with my sultry voice

My innocence shows in my face in this youthful skin & makeup I got in The PouPee hunt at My UglyDorothy

 I would explore and be in awe of the marvelous surroundings of the big city!

 I run across some of the rich mobsters and they tell me to be able to make it in the Chi, I have to be tough and strong and know my way around! A kid like me could get hurt in a place like this!

Having booked a gig at the local jazz club, I was able to afford a new set of fancy wheels! I was officially a Big City girl now!

Where It Begins

Sometimes I like to explore but this time I was trying to do one of my beloved hunts. I guess the hunt ended before I realized it, but this sim is quite cozy and quaint and I felt like it accented my classic beauty look rather well! I don't do a lot of editing (As if I know how anyway lol) when I have nice surroundings like this because it takes away from the natural beauty of it all! But this is a great picture place for Bloggers! Check out here: Where It Begins Flea Market
