So remember this one time that I was telling you all about how I generally find it extremely hard to find GOOD QUALITY urban wear on the grid? We’ll if I didn’t – I just did *laughs*. Any who… To get on to my quest. I have been CRAVING some really great hip hop clothing for a long time now, tired of wearing the same 6-7 outfits that I have managed to put together myself from pieces of a lot of different makers and styles to make it my own. Today – I’m lazy!
Last night at my other love on the grid – being a hostess for a dance club, I noticed a few of our patrons coming in with these really stellar urban clothes. I tell no lies when I say, I was in my sisters ear saying – Kilo OMG we have to go check this store out when I am done here, ok ok ok ok! – Yeah, I am a bit hyper, but what can ya do :p
After checking out a couple things (read: MAJOR profile perving – Yes I am one of “those” people), I find out that C. Morane is NOW Delirium! I made note of the location and tucked it away safely in my landmarks folder. Now I would have done this post last night but I was so tired, so you get it today….
There are a few things that I like about the store on a whole. First of all, the awesome folks at Delirium have a box just outside the female part of the store that is FREE. This contains the holy grail of most creator’s creations – THE HAIR! Yes my darlings, in this tiny little FREE box contains ALL the landmarks to the places where the hair has be purchased to complete certain looks. You will see upon entering the store that each vendor picture clearly notes – Hair From blah blah blah, so then you can refer to the lil box for the LM’s and you are set. I didn’t see if they listed the actual styles on the vendor cards, but at least it points you in the right direction.
Oh lord, this post is turning into epic-ness of mass proportions. However, I digress. Delirium – Splash! is a wonderfully crafted AFFORDABLE ($350L) FULL outfit. What do you get? Well…. You get pants, with all the baggy attachments, you get the hoodie, you get the bra top, you get the SHOES, and the sleeves too. Fully complete. Wear with or without the hoodie, its up to you, either way it’s hella cute and I love it. Delirium is my official first place to go if I am in the mood for Urban wear!

Puttin’ A New Flava In Your Ear…
Urban Street
Ok so I am like the BIGGEST Hip Hop/Urban wear conaisseur in both RL and SL. I have one major complaint about SL however... The lack of finding great affordable urban clothing that dosen't look like you are wearing tires around your legs. So imagine my excitement when I TP into the Sweetest Goodbye this morning.
Introducing.....
Billie @ $290L, is this wonderfully designed short jacket. Falling just above your midsection, this jacket is open and has the hoodie attachment. There were many colour options, I chose black with the green-gold accents. The prim sleeves are so cute, and the stars and stripes detail are so subtle yet, a great addition to the piece.
BomBom @ $200L are these adorable capri type pants. Appearing that the texture is to mimic that of a parachute, they have minimum shine, yet enough detail that gives this peice depth and character. I love how they ride low on the hips without letting your bits being shown to the rest of the world. The tiny little button accents only add to the amazing pants.
Now the shoes... OMG the SHOES!!!!!
These are called Wonder Bird, and at $500L -- although quite expensive are completely worth it to round out your urban look. These shoes come in a variety of colors, and all are equally wonderful. I love the detail of the laces, the fabrics and the wool that is folded over, giving it a great overall look. When you wear them you might be surprised that they look a bit over sized however that is how they are SUPPOSED to look. Another great shoe investment for me thank you to the Sweetest Goodbye.

p.s. ladies they have a subscribo in the store that does not eat a group space so hop on it.
