Who said leather is reserved for colder months? The Sveta skirt by Amias, just out at the newly opened Cosmopolitan, makes a convincing case for summer leather. The texture is that dreamy buttery-soft aniline leather that looks luxe and feels light. And because it’s a wrap skirt, it’s not just stylish—it’s practical too, with just the right amount of ventilation for a hot day.

To balance the sleek leather, I paired it with Ison’s Kiley cropped button-up, which has that “relaxed but intentional” fit—neither baggy nor stiff. Add in Salvadori’s Jimmy slingbacks and suddenly the look tilts from casual to casually elegant. The real temptation though is the Maurer bag I scooped up at Kustom9. It’s refined, versatile, and I’m already imagining it styled with half of my wardrobe.

And because no outfit is complete without good skin, I grabbed the new Colette skin by Amara Beauty—also at Cosmopolitan. Amara Beauty has been one of my long-time favorites, and the overflowing state of my inventory folder can confirm the obsession. Colette continues the tradition: polished, fresh, and oh-so flattering.

Makeup-wise, I went with quick sophistication—BNNB’s BIC lipstick for a bold lip and Mumu eyeshadow for a soft touch of color. My hair is swept up in a high Wings ponytail, perfect for showing off the Cassie jewelry by Orsini, which catches the afternoon light in all the right ways.

I’d love to know—how would you style the Sveta skirt? Would you lean into elegant city chic or keep it breezy casual? Drop your take in the comments below, I always love seeing how you make these pieces your own.

XO, Graz

Welcome to Pixel Approved. I’m Grazia.

This blog is where I share what I wear, what I see, and what’s on my mind.

Some days, it’s about digital fashion and styling in Second Life. Other days, it’s a personal journal where I unpack random thoughts, trends, or things that just won’t leave my head. I review skins I love, explore beautiful places you might’ve missed, and always keep a sharp eye on details that matter.

If you’re here for virtual fashion, clean edits, smart opinions, or a quiet escape—you’ll feel at home.
