* Casual Styling with DCNY *

Today I wanted to explore our Second Life a bit. I was in a mood for a casual outfit and finally got this super cute ensemble from DKNY called "DCNY Charli White".

The DCNY Charli Outfit is a great racer back tank, and a breezy long skirt covered in a delicate floral pattern, and a DCNY Signature hip belt. Available in 6 colors.

In the background you can see a part of the new opened BOSL Country Club (121, 129, 51). It was one of my destinations today... ;o)

The elegant setting of the BOSL Country Club was designed by Patch Thibaud on a full sim with a connecting dance club The Warehouse, also designed by Thibaud, on an adjacent full sim. The uniquely beautiful settings are perfect for weddings and events, and can be booked by contacting Giano Umberto in world.
