Checking in at DG Innovations

It’s been ages since I have been by DG Innovations. I have a reason. Every time I go there’s too much to tempt me and I spend more than I plan. Still, by waiting this long, I was overwhelmed by all the new dresses. This dress, called Moon River, is not one of the most recent releases, but it was new to me and in the lovely blue and silver color combination that I love for winter.  It comes with a couple options for wearing it. This is the side slit, sleek sheath.

There is also this full-skirt with a net overskirt and lovely embellished panels of embroidery going down the back.

When I grow up..

If you ever said “When I grow up I want to be a princess” have I got a dress for you. While walking the boots at Relay For Life I came upon DeGroot Innovations and saw this and went “ooh” and then “ohh la la” and then “ooh” again. Yes, this is the dress of childhood princess dreams and grownup fantasies.

Sometimes, I Just Find Stuff on the Floor

posted by Gidge Uriza

Wandering the grid, I’m prone to finding leftover hunt items sitting about. This is especially true around holidays, and I know how it can be. I once left Easter Eggs sitting out around Vicious Island for over a month – because I forgot where I hid them + Cajsa and I were really busy hosting two HUGE themed events per week.

I am usually terribly delighted when I find these things though, as my schedule rarely permits me to participate in “hunts” on a regular basis. Continue reading

Celebration

I love Innovations, with a capital or a lower case I. DG Innovations has long been a favorite store since I first discovered it last year looking for a ball gown for Christmas. It’s well named as the fashions range far and wide in inspiration but stay close to home and consistent in quality.  I wasn’t looking or needing anything new when I dropped by Innovations yesterday – not at all – but then I saw this and all was lost.

You Twinkle Above Us

Another great find from the Hair Fair was this extravagantly rich Wild Orchid updo from Exile complete with assorted differently colored wild orchids in the packl. It’s the perfect hair for when you really want to dress up and wear something as rich and exciting as this dress.

Hello World & Happy New Year

Nikki Ree's Snow QueenI have thought about offering a fashion blog for some time and the first day of the New Year seemed an appropriate time to do it and what better to start with than the fabulous Nikki Ree gown I work the the Black & White ball @ Vicious last night. 

It’s Snow Queen by Nikki Ree and certainly earned it name. The dress is enhanced with snowflake lace throughout with  the kind of detailed craftsmanship that has made Nikki Ree such a big name in SL fashion.

On my flickr page you can see detail photos of the bodice, sleeves and hemline that will demonstrate how thoroughly Nikki Ree stuck to her snow theme while designing this dress.  

I paired the dress with Adam N Eve’s Incanti shoes in Silver with White Diamonds, Muse’s elegant Dauphine necklace and earrings and a Winter Queen mask from Innovations.     Earring

Funny story about the mask. I knew Innovations has a great collection of masks and popped over there with little time to spare before the party and there was a line. Knowing that I didn’t really need to browse all the masks, I asked the woman at the vendor if she would mind pausing if a white mask came up during her browsing since I was only looking for white. She looked at my dress and said, I know the mask for you and paged back a few to this mask…and she was right, it was  a perfect match with just a subtle hint of the blue-white frostiness that made the Snow Queen dress look so icy. Thanks again, o helpful shopper.
