Psychedelic Tendencies
By Grazia Horwitz | January 31, 2007
Meeting Kit Maitland yesterday at a crazy game of ACRO in one of SL’s friendliest bars, I suddenly remembered that I had been struggling in my studio (sounds negative, but I’m just not much of a photographer) to make some nice pics of her recent releases for this blog. As stated previously things have been rather hectic lately… so using Update Wednesday to do a little catching up on things, and Kit’s pics instead of my own.
Kit has been working some psychedelic, hypnotizing texture into an outfit called Assimilate…. all resistance is futile, every objection irrelevant…. this is soooo gogo, you just need to wear it to get this 60’s feeling and get into the Mary Quant mood. This top will catch everyone’s eyes and turn them into powerless objects… have them eat lemons believing it’s pineapple :-). The sheer shirt is fun to wear with other things too… Í’ve been playing with it for quite a bit. The total outfit is cute, but for me a little too much…. I rather wear the stockings with a black outfit for a more existentialist look, but the total pack offers lots of possibilities to mix and match which I positively adore.
At the same time she released another outfit which is totally different from the previous one.Kit states on her blog:
“So then in my b/w frame of mind…I started thinking about this dress with an inverted V bodice…white on top…black on bottom…and then it sort of evolved into what I have here…which is a set that includes a cpl different skirt styles…a top with or without the sheer lower portion…some leggings…foofy sleeve ruffles…kinda girly and fun and versatile. Sometimes I just make outfits and kinda keep thinking…’Oh that would be nice…and THAT would be nice…’…and before I know it…BOOM…cajillion pieces. But I like to mix & match things from different designers…so hopefully the versatility is helpful. I decided to call this one ‘Harmony’. Not sure why…I just liked it. “
Need I say more, cute and girly… love that.. versatility… my middle name lately. Cajillion pieces? The more the merrier! Love this piece. Sorry for not having blogged these before.

Posted by: The Diva on February 1st, 2007 at 3:56 pmCan someone tell me the hair featured in this first gogo photo?
Posted by: ruby prieto on February 17th, 2007 at 4:25 pmYes I can, thx to Kit who always includes a notecard with details on “the look” in all her packages. The hair is ETD Modish in Burgundy Burnt. I just can’t tell whether that’s new or old ETD and whether it’s still available. However, I guess you could ask one of Elika’s shop assistants about that. Good luck!
