Here Comes the Briiiide

June is traditionally a time for weddings, which in our country makes no sense as its usually windy , cold and wet lol.

But luckily thanks to Phils Place, and the amazing weather conditions, June Brides the wold over can have beautiful skies and incredible weather.


Click Pic for bigger image.

But its not just the weather that can be incredible. With the release of the NEW Enkythings Baba Yaga Bridal Collection, it was high time to do a Bridal Post, and these shoes are just stunning for during and after an event such as a wedding.

One of the hardest things for an upcoming bride to get just right, is the shoes. So many white shoes to choose from, but not so many that are styled with a Bride in mind. The Baba yaga collection is made to cater to as many options that may be needed. With white, cream, gold and silver as the key ingredients.

Great thing about the options, is that then not only is the bride covered, but you can consider doing an offset combo for the bridal party. Also as the Baba Yaga bridals are a remix of the Original Baba yaga there are endless colour possibilities to choose from, if you go with more vivid colours in your party, YAY the choice abound.

Now onto the Dress. There are incredible wedding gowns in Phils Place - I should know I have about 30+ lol. This Unforgettable Gown from BLAZE is just that, truly Unforgettable. The lace in this dress is STUNNING , Drop Dead Gorgeous. I have all sorts of love for this creation, but of course my first love is the System Skirt Love, I mean LOOK AT ME!- lol.

The two prim skirt options are beautiful, my personal favourite is the one on the right , slimline and chic. This Gown is the kind of style that can totally transform your mind to 'After the Wedding" the delicate Lace and sensuality of the gown itself, makes my mind wander to the Wedding Night, and being a vision by candlelight.

There isn't a Groom in Phils Place or RL, that wouldn't fall in love all over again when you do that walk towards him. It's simply breathtaking. I know this because, its rare that I poke, and whine, and carry on all girly girl crazy like, trying to get Mel to say I beoootiful, but when he was working; and I was taking pics , I kept prodding him to do so - lmao. I seriously almost turned into Bridezilla.

If you are having any Bridal Gown woes at the moment, or are planning a wedding, or know someone that is , you will do them a great service in taking them to BLAZE to see Unforgettable.

To really get into the Bridal Spirit, and of course to show the way you can co-ordinate your shoes with your Bridal Accessories, I am showing the Gold and Silver Cascading Bridal Bouquet from Essentia Bridal. There are also Matron of Honor - many use those as Bridal too- and then the bridesmaid bouquets, as well as Boutonnières for the Groom and Groomsmen, and corsages. They are full prim work and absolutely stunning, with many colours to choose from. Essentia Bridal can also do them to match your bridal colours for an additional fee, and there are DEMOS on Onrez and SLExchange as well as in the store.

The Hair is the Divine Sofia from ETD , and the Unforgettable Veil sits so wonderfully well on this style hair. The skin is the Pale Linda skin from Minnu Model Skins, that I just love , and is no longer available as of yesterday :o(- but a nice clean looking skin with subtle make - up is always a good look for a Bride.

The wonderful Cameo Necklace is from Kalon, a stunning Pearl Choker with a divine Cameo at the centre, which goes into that 'Something Old' traditional very well.

I hope in some way this post makes your Special day easier

Another Reason to go to Fashion Expo

Yesterday Efe and I did a run through of the Fashion Expo thats running at the moment.

So many incredible stores there, with RFL vendors and such huge shops its a breeze to see everything all at once.

We wandered into Eros, and the designer Keth Mommsen was in attendance. Such beautiful gowns, dresses and Menswear are featured at the location, as well as this incredible FREE Gown - and guys there is also a FREE Tuxedo.

Keth was lovely enough to model some of her creations for Efe and myself and it was INSTANT system skirt love for me. I have no need for a gown at the moment, but Eros is definitely a store that will be on my Must Go To list from now on, when the need arises.

The helena gown and the one thats right in front of you when you enter - yes cant remember its name lol - are both stunners. Make sure you check their space out in depth, and don't forget to grab this stunning Gold Urbanity Gown for FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Another item that was a MUST HAVE at the Fashion Expo for me, were actually a few items at Zaara's store, I got a lot of other things too, but this Kaya Onyx set is Divine, not only was it incredibly priced but when I got it open, I found not only did it have this wonderful gold combination but also my first love SILVER.

Zaara Kohime the designer behind Zaara Indian Couture is a lovely lady, and her beautiful creations will help you feel like the Princess you all are.

Another MUST HAVE are the Limited Edition Fashion Expo ONLY Long Akward Pose poses. Yes Dove Swanson has made one set of poses that you can only get at the Expo, I am using one of the poses in the shot but the others are by her too, and also available at the Expo.

My favourite Gold shoes are by Digit Darkes and don't hurt me, but the only LM I have for the Expo is the one landing at her door lol - I promise it isnt a plot. But all the stores mentioned in this post as being there, are only a few stores along either side of Digit Darkes.

The shoes are the fantabulastic Sandstorm Snakeheels, and if you don't already own these shoes, then you are missing out on something incredible.

The hair that ALWAYS reminds me of Priscilla Presley is by Bishwear, and is a FREEBIE at Savoir Hair in world location, which if you didn't already know is run by Teagan Blackthorne and Laynie Link. Teagan is in this months Dark Eden Girl of the Month Competition , and the last night to vote is saturday night with an incredible party held in the Dark Eden Club, so make sure you get your vote in for Teagan at Dark Eden store.

Yummy Yummy skin is a collaboration between Popfuzz Bamboo and Mimi Coral and is the Golden in Tan, I adore this line of Collaborations they have done , I hope to see more in the future. The beautiful Gold Hair Rose is by Essentia and I would cry if I didn't have the Gold and the Silver, they go with everything when the other 50+ colours don't match something lol.

So make sure you get over to Fashion Expo time is running out.

Eros, Digit Darkes, Zaara Indian Couture and Long Akward Pose can be all found HERE

Dot Lane is totally an attention whore and wants you to visit her blog! ( I SWEAR her words not mine lmao )

If you haven't had the pleasure of Dot Lane before, well you haven't surfed my sidebar links :P, and you definitely are missing out on a quirky and enriching experience. Her BLOG is fun and lively and she seriously can have you in stitches with one line.

So when she passed me the link for this I decided yet again to kidnap her post and bring it over here for you to enjoy, but as the title says lol Go visit her blog yourself and have some giggles.

Dot :

This is another blog post being released from the backlog queue, this time from 5/21/2008. No slurls, of course, since the grid is down but if you really really really can't find something, just IM me. Hell, IM me anyway. I'm probably just sitting in my ice cream chair (really--it is chair that seats four that is a big bowl of ice cream) in my apartment at Extropia and would welcome someone actually talking to me.

Dot Lane, Ready For Her Close Up!

Sasy Scarborough gave me a gift yesterday, the "Determined" outfit from Digit Darkes, which is perfect for a dramatic entrance into the boudoir or just wearing around town to wash your car. Okay, it's perfect for enticing some poor sap to wash your car for you, not that I would ever use my feminine wiles to get anyone to do anything for me, unless you feel like giving me a shoebox full of lindens in which case I just loosened the robe and leaned in a little towards you so you can smell my perfume. /me coos sweetly and bats her eyelashes at you, then promptly trips over the train and falls down. I'm just not a very convincing femme fatale am I? Still, since I know my readers are full of femmeness and fataleness, there are going to be lot of guys (and girls) succumbing to the charms of this outfit. Head over and check it out and tell them Dot Lane sent you!

REDGRAVE featuring Chi Junot

Chi Junot has only recently started blogging over at Fashion Finds, and in a small amount of time she has really started to nail it. She has a fabulous writing style as well as an awesome dress style, and I couldn't resist asking if I could post this on here too.

Chi:
My introduction to REDGRAVE; came when I saw the Brown Glitter Club Dress in the most recent Sexy Second Magazine 50 sexiest things in SL. My next exposure to REDGRAVE came when I saw a photo of someone (it may have been Alaska Metropolitan) wearing this Silver Sequin Club Dress. Both of them reduced me to a state of helpless primal longing, which was not eliminated by actually going to the store and looking at the display photos. In a cruel irony, the vendors for the two dresses happen to be mounted on the wall next to each other, which means that picking one only must leave you facing the (temporarily) spurned object of your clothing lust.

REDGRAVE does not believe in either subtlety or false advertising. This dress and its sib are named club dresses for a reason. I cannot imagine wearing this for any purpose other than trying to make heads turn on a dance floor. Were the sparkles not sufficient, designer Emilia Redgrave has attached pearl strands to both skirt and bodice for additional glitz, almost leading me to wonder whether the dress includes some sort of subliminal bling. More pop art than clothing, it is strictly for those rare occasions when only the very brightest will do.

Glimmer featuring Efemera Bisiani

Efe has done a great post at Fashion Finds on the latest release by Digit Darkes, so with all my whats new and notices and in Phils Place promoting of the wonderful set, I like it when I can hand over the reigns to someone else, or Im lazy you decide lol.


Efemera :
OK, so I've been quiet. Worryingly so in fact for me!! But don't worry, I've not been plotting total world domination - yet. Just that RL has been... uncooperative recently, so I've hidden myself away in inventory sorting, all the better to regale you with more posts once I can actually find stuffs!! But, sometimes something comes along that you just have to post now, now, now and today was one of those days.

Isn't it yummilicious? The new Glimmer dress by the talented Ms Digit Darkes. And it's got sequins, and sparkle and swwwwwwwwwish! And you remember how much I love the swish, right? The way the light is baked into this texture is just amazing, and frankly puts all those horrible frocks with added bling to shame. And the black belt makes co-ordinating a dream. As I said with the Determined outfit, be great if SL would allow extra layers for more belt colour options, but as it stands, you just can't go wrong with black!!

But this is such a versatile outfit too. Just look at how gorgy the swimsuit is once you take off the skirt!! *purrrrrrrrrrrrrrs* It gives the impression that lots of skin is on show, but the way the cutouts are placed, it's perfectly modest - just the right balance to be sexy, not slutty. And I'm just adoring the buckle on the back, tho I must admit wouldn't fancy it RL - can you imagine a) how uncomfy, and b) how hot it would get in the sun?

And just to turn the sexy up, I really wanted to try something totally brazen, and I just love the splash of red from the "stripper heels" in contrast to the black. Oh my, I can see this is another outfit that's gonna get plenty of wear. And best of all - I've only shown three colours here - it's also available in Amethyst, Champagne, Gold, Silver, Wine, Golden, Mocha and Navy. So that's a total of eleven colours to choose from ladies, and if there isn't something to suit you in there, there's no hope for you! *giggles*

Delightful Days

EDIT :Have since found out that it was Allissa Demar that helped me that day, so again thank you for wonderful service, and to Blaze for a fabulous Shirt and gift.

A long while ago, I was shopping with the Lovely Jaydie and started whining that I didnt have a shirt that was a mens style, but that was supposed to look like I stole one from Mel.

A few days later she IM'd me to let me know that BLAZE had such a shirt , and not in the store for sale, but as a FREE item for joining her Subscribe-o-matic.

I was overjoyed, not because it was free , but because I could finally have one lol - free was just a bonus. Now of course this was one of those crazy crazy days of items not delivering, and I ended up speaking to the Manager of the store - I really really wish I knew her name right now as she was awesome.

I wasn't getting the item delivered and really wanted the shirt desperately, even wanting to buy it if it was at all possible - yes it was crazy longing lol. Anyway the lovely lady with the name I don't remember Manager, sent me the item with much stress, as profiles weren't loading and all sorts of crazy, but I was so then and am still now very grateful, again its system skirt Genius using the skirt layer to make the bottom of this long loose shirt just look fab.

I wore this shirt for days in all sorts of combinations, and today was a day I wanted to just look thrown together in a stylish way, so immediately I went to the Boyfriends Buttondown. I have had these Capri style Leggings in my inventory for a while from N° 9 Nylons for a while, and they were just perfect for under the shirt.

I really love the 80's look lace ends to these, so perfect for under flouncy skirts or like this with an oversized shirt. They come in an abundance of colours, and both layers for ease of wear. The NEWISH as I am late blogging them, Dolly Sandals from Dela look fab with this look, beautiful stacked wedges in a patent leather texture, are fun and the deep rich colours mean you can mix them up with all sorts of light or dark clothing choices.

Mouse Mimistrobell of Dark Mouse at Whimsical Creations, sent me some lovely Jewelry and Accessories recently. The gorgeous Catty Eye Sunglasses are just adorable, made me feel like I was working in my den reading or writing, wearing my mans shirt etc etc lol.

Amber Necklace and Earrings and the beautiful Flower Necklace are all divine pieces for Jewelry lovers. The Amber pieces were perfect when wearing the rich browns of the Dolly Sandals and the light Cocoa leggings, and how adorable is the flowers sitting in a beautiful blue vase, I loved that.

Hair is the Kenzie 2 by Aden Breyer, loosely drawn to one side low pony that I love the texture of and the style itself is so graceful. The skin is the Vivant Blossom 1 Skin by Fleur, light lips and deep eyes make this skin a favourite.

Hope you get a chance to unwind this way sooon.

Blind Hobo in the Cold ( a semi big post :P )

I went to check out a skin I saw on Free*Style yesterday, and got sidetracked by another store completely lol., the store is called Acid and Mala.

So doing the sensible thing I TP'd to their main store, and found many delights.

The first item I bought is the Tiras de piel roja 9 piece set, which are the arm bands and choker you see in the red, also there are black and white ones available. I have allot of black armbands and black sets of accessories, but the red just drew me in to it. I adore the choker and can see myself wearing this often, I have a lock necklace I love that I don't get to wear too often as its not released, so at least this one will tide me over,

The full wrap around done many times on all pieces is very well done, and there are also leg straps too for the set, but I just wanted to show the arms and choker, you will see the rest when you get there :P. The next love was for the brilliant unisex Blind Hat/Hair - yes seems to be a hat and hat/hair week for me.

This hat hair combo is just fun and edgy, the texture is marvelous on both hat and hair, and I adore the little studs coming out of the rim of the hat, its like a subtle DO NOT TRESPASS message lol , and you can just imagine all those broody men we know wearing this and becoming even more mysterious.

needing more black and red, I dived into Inventory and decided that typing red in search was as time consuming as just looking in each folder lol. But I came out with the Vicky dress from Artilleri and just put on the shirt piece, as the style of this top is yummy. The fabulous tights are from TRUTH and are the Veruca Salt leggings - on the underwear layer, so perfect for boots - I giggled when I turned my camera and saw that they don't exactly cover all the bum, but that just made it cuter. The TRUTH is out there - ok sorry just had to say it coz it was driving me nuts in my head for the day lol.

The skin is also available at TRUTH and is the Arcane Liquid Skin (Latte) Smoked/Strawberry, I love this skin, its so pouty and delish, make sure you grab some DEMOS. Needing some fab boots to go with this look , I went to Beckenbauer and got the Chantal Cherry boots, having grown up in the Doc Martens age , these are just fabulous and come in lots of yummy colours.
Moving from Edgy to adorable, some more pieces I picked up at Acid and Mala, are the snuggly Bufanda y gorro neko Hat Scarf , and the leg and arm warmers texture change pack.

There are three different packs to the arm and leg warmers but this set had the same texture as the scarf and hat I couldn't live without.

The hat fit was perfect, I only had to change one prim in my hair - the lovely Saleen hair from HCT thats only 1L for the fat pack- at the front , made a copy of the style first and then pasted the new edited version straight into the scarf and hat folder for the next time I wear them. Look at the cute little buttons/embroidery things on both the hat and the scarf, and OMG ears with piercings lol so cute, I have always wanted one of those that you see on babies lol now I have one of my own .

Whether legwarmers are your thing or not, the armwarmers are just fab and a great way to keep snuggly with OUR winter thats already frosting up my window, sheeesh its cold this morning, but at 5am what does one expect lol.

The cuteness of these accessories made me feel young, and you know when you are young and silly you tend to want to wear as little as possible even in cold weather, well I know I did lol. So as long as the zones that all the heat needs to be are covered, you can do the minimal clothing option, and there isnt much as minimal as the KC Jeans Skirt from Kimberly Casanova Designs.

The top is the Keyhole top from La La Foo Foo, and is the white one tinted. Now somehow, I don't know how, but Roslin of Fleur always seems to know when I am on a posestand, she dropped the NEW Vivant Bronze Dig Ophelia 2 on me and its just beautiful , the sad side of that though is , if you look at the picture on the far right lol thats me contempating life WITHOUT there ever being NEW Vivants *sniffles *.

Yes, unfortunatly this is the LAST one , and there 'may' be one or two done for RFL, but thats just a 'Maybe".
But do stay tuned for an incredible NEW skin line to come from Fluer in the upcoming months.

I did get asked though, does this mean Fleur is going to retire Vivant ? or still have them in the store for ever more, well I HOPE SO , I hope they stay, because I'll chuck a big wobbly if they go away lol.

The other hair I have on to show you the face details better , is the Reica hair from Diversity Hair , cute as a button on a scarf lol, and the Tangerine Hair Rose from Essentia was the perfect combo with the scarf and warmers colours.

The shoes are the Ballet Wedges from ETD , and thanks to Fashion Emergency and Whimsy Winx and Efemera I worked out how to change the colours - lol dont delete colour change notecards :P.
Two more things I just coulnt resist at Acid and Mala , were the Collar metal rojo, and lol the Organic Boots with Bears.

Why the Organic boots ? I have no idea , but they just wanted to be mine lol.
The bears with nails going through them all voodoo doll like are cute in their creepyness , and the idea of heshan bags tied around your legs with rope was too much fun , I couldn't resist lol.

The collar though was all about the Chains and Key and such and just too cute for only 80L I think it was , but yeah everything in Acid and Mala is really inexpensive.

While I was in my TRUTH folder and wearing the Veruca tights, I saw another long forgotten EVIL folder lol, some of you may remember TRUTH and the HOBO Store , well not sure if the store ever happened , it was a lot of Truth being naughty. But he did go as far as to make teaser clothing for it , and even though I don't usually wear things you cant get lol this one was perfect for my Organic boots that I couldn't resist.

There was a skirt with the set too of newspaper pages - sooooo DOLLY 86' - but it was too long , and the license plate belt is just fab, so if you dont see these in his store IM him and harass him - he deserves it :P.

The skin is again Arcane in the Ghost tone , which seemed fitting and again available at TRUTH . The hair which I love is Trash by Old Gravy and thanks to Efe talking about the hair she had on in IM it reminded me to venture to my Old Gravy folder for perfect hair to complete my look.

hope you go visit Acid and Mala and have as much fun as I did .

Thinking again but an old thought new way of spreading the idea

Don't scream at me its just a thought :P.

In RL many many industries have accreditation, meaning that they 'shouldn't' not can't, operate under the banner of being that profession without it. Now that kind of thing of course gets abused just as much as anything, meaning people fake accreditation and what not.

But in many ways its a valuable thing to be under that kind of banner, its a safeguard, kind of like 'some' unions - again don't scream because in my country 'some' of our unions are good lol.

Anyway a few months back, I was in a group that was trying to fix things with theft and the idea of accrediting came up, and I as usual ran off at the mouth with a billion ideas in less than 5 seconds - yes Efe, I didn't breathe :P.

There are ways to do this, a few actually, and without necessarily having allot of elitist wah wah stuff going on.

What if there was an agreed upon logo for instance, and to get the logo for your store you had to be deemed theft free by a panel of members - remember this is just me spouting ideas .

Now thing is and this one is actually bigger than individual stores, in many situations of theft in the past, when the person stealing rented space, people have contacted the landlords and said 'blah blah blah ' and the response has more times than not been 'I don't care ' .

Why don't they care, easy they make rent from that one store.

BUT, what if the land was approved, what if the sim owner was approved as being totally co-operative to 'NO STOLEN GOODS ', what if that the terms of being approved by the 'theft free group' was that no ifs and or buts , you returned the renters items and they had no store .

Now in my mind that would generate big things for that land owner

1. People would want to rent there, with the absolute knowledge that no one is going to set up a store next to them with stolen product and if they do it will be dealt with straight away.

2. The land owner could advertise their mall/renters as a "Clean Environment' meaning customers are going to want to shop there, again knowing they wont come across stores of stolen merchandise .

Now those two reasons alone would pay more than one thieves rent in my mind, because eventually what would happen is that the booming malls/store area's would be the ones that people once they are aware of this 'banner' so to speak, would want to shop at those locations, people that rent would look for spaces also under those banners, and people that are prone to selling stolen content would eventually have less spaces to rent at.

Ok so then you think yes but most of them own sims, but again the first theory, the sim couldn't and wouldnt be approved if there was any stolen content on it, and if any was reported then bam kicked no longer acrredited.

But again you say lol - don't you love my conversation with you :P - what if they were accredited and then went on to steal, well thats the tricky part and something that would mean a good amount of people would have to be willing to do this in the first place.

A website could be set up to list all locations accredited, and there would have to be some sort of ban list stating accreditation has been pulled. No that wouldn't be a witch hunt or some kind of flaming, it would be pure and simple such and such location is no longer accredited, and of course somehow that would need to be absolutely worked out how , maybe the banner wouldn't even exist in world, maybe it would purely be site worthy. SO rather than banning them they just wouldnt appear on the site anymore, again this is all just ideas running through my mind.

A site compiled of all theft free sims and stores , and then its up to the individuals to use that how they will, I know I personally would love a site filled with slurls to just click and tp and find that nothing there would be stolen or reselling of anothers work - by that I mean freebies that you didn't make yourself as there is still allot of that that happens, and I have a few friends that totally freak out and won't shop in those stores, and fair enough for them to make that decision for themselves.

Now then you think, well what if a store is accredited but they rent at many spaces, then people would see the sign in their store, well thats up to the individual shopper and the actual store really , but again don't you think that eventually stores would pack up from malls and rental locations if their landlords weren't willing to support the fight against theft ?.

The thing is too that many are starting to stick to the absolute no way no how theft free stores, big stores that have complete sims or space, and they have enough incredible items, that people don't need the stress of shopping anywhere else. Again great safety in that , you know you wont find stolen items there, and you shop happy.

But what about those starting out , the people that have a few little locations spread out over SL and its going to take time to build up their products and reputation, they deserve a chance to be seen, well again , if those people find out there are places to rent that absolutely guarantee that the land will stay theft free, well by renting there they will be seen by all the shoppers that will want to visit those locations.

Ok I am so repeating myself I know it, but all is fair and good being a theft free store YAY YOU, but if the location you are at doesn't support you in that, then you are struggling up a very big mountain, and there are sooo many that want to help lighten that load.

If nothing like this actually gets done, think about it as a landlord yourself, what can you do to ensure the well being of your renters and your own sim.

Ok I rambled, I think I just want to see some signs when I land somewhere I have never been, that assures me I'm not going to deal with the pain of shopping in three stores; get to the fourth and finding it full of theft :o( , because then unfortunatly for those three great places, I will mark that sim off my need to continue shopping at memory bank.

Ok again a site or group doesn't need to even happen, if you own land and you rent spaces and you agree that no way is there ever going to be stolen content on your land, then let us know, let us reward that passion for a theft free SL by wanting to shop at your locations ♥

Waves her Flag - or part of at least :P

So I am always saying things are fated when I blog lol, and seriously yesterday was another of those strange stepping stone moments.

I had seen a blog post from someone on the feed about skin the other day, and yesterday in group IM someone asked about the hair from that pic , I asked in Fashion Emergency and no one knew, so then I conferenced and got the answer, deciding that I hadn't been to that store yet, I dragged Fia over with me.

Then decided to go look at the actual skin, so tpd off again, after grabbing some demos, I jumped the wall- literaly- and landed in a really yummy build and smashed a scooter into the sim line lol. Then Fia found a stump, a tree stump he thought was fabu, so we tpd to that store, then once I got there I realised that the store wasnt the main - not in picks why arent mainstores always the FIRST ? - so after much banter in voice about how we MUST go to the main lol we tpd again.

The next build was even more incredible, I am sure many of you have already been to Isle of Tranquility , but if not you really need to, today - oh and try and go in the day time , because there is a club there so green chat spams you if you are trying to shop at night time and gets kind of hard if you are with others.

Ok so now you know how I end up at one place :P , its not just a tp and shop kind of deal with me, there are steps to finding the goodies lol. So every single store there had something worth seeing, buying , drooling over.

I had the best fun too, since my new PC and the ability to walk- oh yes I can finally walk , it wasnt me after all lol - I am so in love with actually walking, after spending nearly two years cam shopping its nice strolling around , its driving Fia nuts but yeah me is enjoying it lol.

So I got this incredible outfit called Salopette_British Punk from Ameries Naughty , ok so the funny thing is that after I shop and do what I have to do , I go to the feed and right there top of the feed is a post from Amerie herself on her new rug :O , I was like OMG had I waited an hour or so I would have had direct access lol, but then I wouldn't have gone on my little trip around the grid lol.

This set is just YUMMMMMMY , it has all the looks shown, and only 200L , and you know I am all for the Grey Love, but Grey and Red together OMG YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMY ! and to then throw in a Union Jack AND a Skully well its too much Bliss.

The one shoulder strap overall bib style top is fab and comes on both shirt and jacket layer, the Kini/bra top is delish - again wishes matching bottoms to that - The pantaloon puffy shorts are adorable as is the tiered skirt , and I just love the shorts on their own as well , they will look fab with a blazer of some sort too.

So then just about to pop up on the stand and a Fash Con notice drops down for Couture Chapeau and its instant love for the Carrie Fedora, but as most hats have to go somewhere, I IM'd the creator Chigadee London and asked where it attached, unfortunatly it was the chin and as my hair roses go there I said Poop! lol. But Chigadee was so lovely and attached it to the mouth for me and delivered it YAY - yeah yeah its not that I couldnt do that, but unfortunatly when you re attach hats, they never sit exactly how intentioned if you arent sure of the exact placement in the first place.

So now I was most of the way there. Putting on my new incredible outfit and hat , with the scripted sizing thing - is great for hats - I looked at my colour pallette and prayed what I wanted had those colours, and sure enough Tesla Athena opentoed ankle boots had the perfect match with the Dark Heart combination WOOOHOOO.

Diving into my skins I came out with the Arcane Liquid Skin in Vivid Ruby Make up and omg Purrfect , but now there was a gap from cleavage to head and I needed something there that wasnt too ostentatious, I grabbed my Byzantine Choker from Essentia and the beautiful prim work and divine dark silver just worked wonderfully well.

The hair, opting for a straight style as it woudl fit neater under the hat, is the Sweet Violet hair from FFS, that I did have to do some adjusting too, but YAY for Copy and YAY for Mod hair , sighs thinking how that might change soon :o(.

So you see the outcome and you need to show the love , so off you go and have an incredible day shopping, and enjoying hopefully the beautiful build of Isle of Tranquility.
