Classy Clothing from Vitamin Ci

By Jaydei Benmergui | April 5, 2007

Today, I am going to make an admission.

I like mesh skirts.

Especially during Spring, the clean lines of a simple skirt just appeal to me. Granted, they take some body modification and lots of prayer (and glitch pants!) to look proper, but to me, a well-made mesh skirt has an elegance that flex prims can’t match.

(And also, if you don’t wear a prim skirt, that’s just one less item that’ll end up in your nether regions after a bad teleport…)

Vitamin_Ci_Rachel.jpgSo when Ciera Bergman of Vitamin Ci dropped her new release “Rachel” on me, I was thrilled to see that it gave me a mesh skirt option, as well as a flex skirt. I love the way Ciera designs her clothing - the lines are clean and shaded at the ends, giving a more dimensional appearance (like real clothes have, the shading from the gap between the clothing and your skin).

“Rachel” is the type of dress that I would feel perfectly comfortable wearing to a party, or to welcome visitors to my summer manor (yeah, I’m channeling my inner snob). It comes with the top and mesh skirt, and an optional prim skirt. The only wish I had for this outfit, was that it came with a set of glitch pants, as I don’t normally like wearing a prim skirt with a mesh skirt. This dress comes in four different color varieties.

And then, when heading over to Vitamin Ci to get the SLURL, I noticed that there was another new dress. I cheered, bought it, then left…and forgot to get the SLURL.  Sigh.

“Breeze” is another, very very chic outfit which utilizes a mesh skirt. Be sure to zoom in on the larger picture - the dress has a circular pattern that really makes the texture look like richly woven cloth.

This dress comes with the top, mesh skirt, and glitch pants.

I must apologize though - I really do have hands, despite what the pose leads you to believe.

Rachel and Breeze can be found at Vitamin Ci - a word of caution though…Vitamin Ci may be good for you, but don’t try eating the clothes. Trust me, they don’t taste very good, and likely aren’t very healthy.

  4. Do you know what happened to 1-800 Bettie’s? I wanted to go there yesterday, but the store has disappeared, as well as the items on slexchange.com. :-(
