Falling Into Fall

I've thoroughly enjoyed this round of Collabor88 and I'll be sad to see it go!  So many wonderful things to wear and enjoy!  Today I'm featuring The Secret Store's Scallop Sweater, Ingenue's Delia Heels, and Yummy's Tiny Acorn Necklace and Earrings... all can be found at Collabor88.  I added delightful shorts from even flow and Izzie's cute Cat Tights.  I'm also wearing new hair from Truth... a gorgeous updo named "Vida". 

I've been decorating my sim for Fall and I've fallen in love with What Next's new Cocoa On The Go Cart!  I'm not showing very much of it in the photos, but I'll be sure to feature this wonderful item in an upcoming blog.

Baboom!

This lovely pink and green mesh dress is one of two dresses in the current group gift at Baboom!  I love how it is cut and textured.  I added the gorgeous Helena shoes from Redgrave.  There are 12 choices of shoe color and so many options for the different parts of the shoes.  The skin matching is a little daunting after being spoiled by the new Gos texturing system, but this shoe is so amazing it is worth the effort!

Lazy Sunday

One of the reasons I love Sundays in SL is Lazy Sunday.  Participating merchants place an item in the front of their shops marked down to $75 Lindens.  I always find really nice and interesting things to buy.  Today's look was fun to put together and started with the "End of Days" outfit from The Plastik.  There were several mix and match pieces in the folder making it possible to wear this item several days and no one would ever know it was all from the same outfit! 

The skin is also a Lazy Sunday item from Aeva/Heartsick.  I love the way it photographed in the windlight I chose.  I added makeup from White Widow, R.icielli, and luju to add more drama to my face.  Speaking of my face... you might notice I look a bit different in today's photos.  I've been playing around with a new shape, one that I've made myself.  I decided to use it today and I like the more serious look that it projects. :)

I wanted a dramatic backdrop for my photos so I teleported over to the LEA SoVA School of Virtual ART sim and found exactly what I was looking for.  It is a wonderful spot for photos and I hope to be able to explore more of it in the future!

Twisted Color Challenge - Autumn in Soho

Another week, another Twisted Color Challenge from Sookie Trellis!  This time the color combination is called "Autumn in Soho".  It is a very fallish color scheme, but I found exactly what I needed at Izzie's.  In fact, I'm dressed in Izzie's from head to toe... well, almost. :)

Izzie's lovely Irene skin is out for the Catnip Carnival. It comes in two shades, I'm wearing the pale shade.  Next, my crocheted top and leggings can also be found in Izzie's shop.  My shoes are Izzie's flower flats in gold/brown.  I finished off the look with Izzie's Leona bag in red and jewelry, also from Izzie's.  How lucky to find everything I needed in one shop, with the exception of the skin over at the Catnip Carnival.  I simply love it when an outfit falls in place effortlessly!

Coming Around Again

As I was shopping at Izzie's today, I spotted this lovely lingerie set that was still marked $75 L from the past weekend's Lazy Sunday!  It was a "had-to-have". :)

My hair is new from Truth and is called Gattina.  I'm wearing the Light Brown 02 shade.  My skin is out for the Catnip Carnival and is called Irene.  I'm wearing the pale shade.  I really love the subdued tones of the this skin and I know I'll be wearing it often. :)

May Group Gift from Roots and Wings Gallery

Eliza Cabassoun is making her art wearable by applying her gorgeous photographs to mesh clothing.  The dress I'm wearing above is the May group gift available at her shop/gallery!  I love the vibrant colors in this dress and orchids are one of my favorite flowers... so this dress is an absolute joy to wear!

I'm also wearing shoes from Hucci, jewelry from Caroline's Jewelry, and hair from Truth... one that I picked up at the Truth Hair Sale.  This photo was taken at HuMaNoiD, one of my most favorite places in Second Life and a place that everyone should visit.

Get Your Tango On!

As I was looking for a location to photograph this lovely dress from coldLogic, I stumbled across Ocho Tango, described as "...a land dedicated to tango, with a milonga for dancing and live concerts."
I HAD to tp over and I'm glad I did!

Of course the perfect spot for the photo was beside the chicken, that cleverly doubles as the Intan single dance ball, lol.  The music and the design of the sim is engaging and absolutely delightful.  I'll be back to dance for sure!

LIV Glam @ Designer Showcase

The April edition of Designer Showcase is out and ready for your shopping pleasure!  I was certainly pleased by this gorgeous floral dress from LIV Glam!  It elegantly announces "spring" with deeper and richer colors than the usual pastels that we see this season.  It is beautifully designed and a joy to wear... the mesh is nice and "thick" so I can move about without my skin breaking through the mesh.  I really like that.  Some of my favorite mesh outfits look fantastic when I'm standing still, but have the problem of "break-through" skin showing as I move.  I'm not an expert by any means, just a consumer who notices such things and I have a deep appreciation for designers who make the mesh "thick" enough to avoid such problems.  "Thick" is my own word... one that I chose simply because I'm not well-versed in the mechanics and terminology of mesh creation and it seems to fit what I'm trying to describe. Special thanks to the designer for making such a quality item!

My hair is a wonderful style in a deep red tone from Wasabi Pills.  I love the way it frames my face!  My eyes are from IKON's Horizon Eyes collection and love the way they are exquisitely highlighted.  Jewelry is from Purple Moon Creations, a set I picked up in a past hunt called "Margo".  My skin is League's Jen in DeepTan. 

I took the photo in my new and very empty house, the Midsomer Cottage from Pamela Galli.  I love this mesh house and hope to have it decorated soon.  The wall decor behind me is called Fly Away and is from What Next.
