Update: In like Flynn

By Celebrity Trollop | August 17, 2006

Grey_plaidUpdate: In the comments, Janie says that she has an optional layer on the jacket which does hide the tummy. So yay for that! Also, Tina wonders what boots Janie’s wearing in the ads. Those are Fallingwater Cellardoor’s “Old Boots” which you can buy at Shiny Things. (Search for “Shiny Things” in your viewer.)

Janie Marlowe posted three new outfits today to her brand new blog — all building on her favorite fall trend: shorts with tights.

I like that look too — especially in this sophisticated and dressy grey plaid. She’s right in noting that it’s cropping up in all of the real world fall fashion preview stories. I wish that Janie’d done the tops on the jacket layer for length — I think from a style perspective I’d prefer not to show off my tummy while wearing this look, but I concede it is a matter of personal taste — and in the case of Second Life perhaps an inherent limitation of the shirt layer.

Not into natty professorial plaid? No problem! Mischief still has you covered with the two other new outfits, both layered looks — one using an undershirt and the other a business casual-y sweater-over-oxford combo. Shop for it at Mischief on Illusion.

  1. Actually, you can wear all of them w/ the tummy showing or not even with the jackets. I had to create a weird jacket w/ part of a shirt hanging off the bottom to achieve the look but its all in there :) Thanks for the nice review.

  2. The outfit looks nice but I have a question. In that photo, what boots are those or is it part of the outfit?
