LnL: Discussion tonight "What is the value of Money?"

Money is a medium of exchange, a medium of power. Buyers and sellers relate to each other through money, it can buy us costumes but not beauty, it can buy us books but not wisdom, it can buy us luxuries but not happiness. So...what is the value of money? Is it really necessary for us to live a happy Second Life? Join us for a lively discussion about this hot topic in LnL's Lounge at 2pm SLT! Looking forward to seeing you! London Junkers (moderator)

Roses

Elegance with a vintage twist: You can not only find costumes on the vintage fair but also very elegant dresses and hairstyles. This Red Roses Dress comes from 22769 ~ casual couture and even if it has a retro appeal it also works pretty well for contemporary events. Small sculpted roses float from the dekollete to the skirtpart. The skirt is completely sculpted but appears not to be stiff due to the legprims which give the dress an extremely natural look.

The adorable skin comes from Damned and is also a vintage fair release. And also the sophisticated hairdress can be found in the booth of MADesigns on the fair. Last but not least: The Black Pumps are also from 22769 ~ casual couture and match perfect to the dress.
