AnnaH Bo Banna

I have been wanting to post on AnnaH for such a long time, and every time I planned too something came up.

Well the something that came up this time, was a Sale at ANIMAH. Persona Designer Myllie Writer, and AnnaH Designer Annah Whitfield, merged together late last year to bring us the delights of ANIMAH.

Unfortunately due to being on different timezones etc, they have decided, that in the best interest of the customer to close ANIMAH in the future weeks, and put the poses that the wonderful store has had for sale, in their own individual stores.
As both Designers have always sold their packs individually as their own, this isn't too much of a confusion for us in the future, and both ladies plan on making more in their own stores YAY. But lucky us have the benefit of this decision, as from now until the 20th all FULL packs of poses are Half Price, thats only 250L each pack, and the poses I'm using today are from that Sale, I got lots - lol.

So while I was shopping I realised outside was AnnaH, and being that close to me, I couldn't any longer put it off.

This first set is called Alessandra, a dressy ensemble that can be worn in many ways to achieve different looks. The contrast of the golden yellow, teamed up with the stunning Dove Blue is pleasing to the eye, and lets you accessorise with ease. The high waist pants have those military gold buttons, that I just love the look of, on pants or coats. Whether the Yellow/Gold top is worn with or without the lovely tailored vest, or vice versa, you have many combinations that will work for many occasions.

The beautiful Circle set of Jewelry is from Persona, and the shimmering light amber like glass is just wonderful. It reminds me of a monocle turned into Jewelry, which has a lovely kind of charm to it. Myllie has only just started making Jewelry, and from what I have seen so far, she has an incredible knack for style, which of course is only an extension of what she does with her fabulous clothing.

The hair is a latest style by TRUTH, the Naomi style is a Messy Half Updo/Tail style. TRUTH has a few of this kind of style, all beautiful and they always make me think of working hard, and looking fab with little to no effort. Having long hair in RL in the past, I know how often you can be pulling a tail through that last wrap of the hair tie, and just get over it.

The skin is the Tara skin by UnFad, I haven't heard anything from them in a while, so I am hoping it means lots of delicious new skins on the horizon. The shoes are the latest by ETD , the Starley Pumps are a wonderful style, especially for pants, as they have that right amount of platform and heel height for cuffed pants. The textures are smooth and rich, and the prints option that has been released are fun and imaginative.
Next set is the Annie set, I have a big thing for Indian styled clothing in RL, I used to manage a store that did a wonderful mix of this style. With the heat in Australia, cheesecloth is your friend.

With two friends both pregnant the same summer, with my discount they were in heaven for maternity wear.

But pregnant or not, this style is feminine and extremely flattering to whatever your body style.

The embroidery at the top, also is marvelous at enhancing and bringing attention to your, well you know what it brings attention to. The beautiful Banana colour of Annie- and there are other colours, just needed to be shown, as again a wonderful blue/grey pair of pants was part of the set.

The addition of the sculpted prims for pants and top, give the set a flouncy look, that again makes you think of carefree days in the sun, and with the upcoming hotter weather for many, this is a delightful style to embrace. Again a mix of different looks from the one set, and as many layers as you could imagine needing.

The shoes are the newish Slingback Pumps from Juicy, and in Banana they are dynamic with this ensemble.

The new hair I bought that day was perfect for my Stylish hippie moment, its the Knit Cap with Black hair by W & K , some fantastic and fun styles are found in this little Japanese store, and only 30L each, the cap also comes with I think it was ten different colours in the one pack. Flower Power anyone ?.
Arianna is a fashion faux pas - grins - so they say and I disagree, BIG TIME. The old wives tale of Blue and Green should never be seen etc etc, can bite my A Embroidered Bottom.

This is how those colours should be put together , with style and elegance.

The Arianna set is again one that can cater to many different needs, depending on the occasion. I adore the style of this blouse, and the pants with the corset style hishwaist/belt option.
I also cant help but giggle everytime I look at my bum and see an A there. The shoes are again the Starley Pumps from ETD , and the hair is a fantastic Dollarbie style from TRUTH , not sure how long kensei 2 is going to be a Dollarbie, so make sure you hurry, and the other one is a Mens style , but both are unisex in my opinion, and beautiful.

Last we have Emma, and this set is adorable. System skirt love, and ANIMAH actually has a new System skirt pose set also on sale.

A lovely denim like kneelength skirt with or without that fabulous Pink belt. The short flexi might be more your thing , or the fun sculpty cuff capris, but all in all this is a wonderful set.

The schoolgirl tie shirt is yummy, but this look that can often be seen as nawty, comes across as very classy.

Perfect timing for me to pull out my Little Kitten Shoes from Beckenbauer Productions, these are adorable in their smack down kind of toughness. They have a definite 'I'm cute but don't mess with me ' kind of thing going on, and when shopping at any sale, these would be great for getting people out of your way - giggles.

Another fantastic hair style from W & K is Yuki hair 26 , the ad and demo had the hair tie as a soft brown colour, the once bought version was green, but as it is mod I just changed the texture and it blended very well with the tie on the shirt.

So that is my post on AnnaH long over due , but make sure you definitely go to ANIMAH and take advantage of the wonderful SALE on poses.
