Pretty on the Prairie

I came by this gorgeous dress by Azul and thought… such a contrast in the dress itself, leather and layers and layers of flouncy chiffon… deserved a contrasting scene to shoot it in…. so I chose the Mother Road.

Azul 1

This dress is everything I am… feminine and beautiful, yet edgy and tough. I put it on and didn’t want to take it off…. and haven’t … for three days… (I think I need to send it to the dry cleaners now).

The lacing on the back of the dress is exquisitely done, every grommet perfectly placed. The flowing skirt is available as a cocktail length as shown or ball gown.

Go Back to the Accessory Fair! Now!

Indy & Co Farouk_001

If you have already gone to the Accessory Fair and think you have seen it all, you haven’t. Indy & Co. just released Indyra Seigo’s contribution to the Accessory Fair as she was ill. You are probably more familiar with her clothing for Indyra Originals, but she also has a shoe line called Coquette Noir and the jewelry line called Indy & Co. The Farouk Necklace and Earrings are a bold addition to the many Egyptian-inspired pieces at the Accessory Fair and make an elegant transition from ancient to modern fashion.

I will be showing you several pieces in this post, so I wanted a perfect dress to highlight jewelry. I chose the Rosalie gown from Miao as it’s a perfect foil for jewelry with v-neckline and classic shape. It has a modern touch with a wide beaded waistband. Coming with a sculpt or flexi-skirt it allows you the option of the movement of flexi or the photographic charms of sculpts.

Week 26 – Tangerine

Tangerine, she is all they claim
With her eyes of night and lips as bright as flame
Tangerine, when she dances by, senoritas stare and caballeros sigh
And I’ve seen toasts to Tangerine
Raised in every bar across the Argentine
Yes, she has them all on the run, but her heart belongs to just one
Her heart belongs to Tangerine
Tangerine, she is all they say
With mascara’d eye and chapeaux by Dache.
Tangerine, with her lips of flame
If the color keeps, Louis Philippe’s to blame.
And I’ve seen clothes on Tangerine
Where the label says “From Macy’s Mezzanine”.
Yes, she’s got the guys in a whirl, but she’s only fooling one girl
She’s only fooling Tangerine!

Well… the dress isn’t from Macy’s its from .salt and I don’t think i’m fooling anyone… but ya never know… 🙂

A House at EverSea – Accessory Fair

jun18_006

EverSea is a wonderful sim created by Grace Loudon who has built some amazing sims including Steiglitz for Fashion For Life, Rivet Town and of course, EverSea and EverWind. I poked about one of the houses for rent and if I were in the market for an historic home from the pre-industrial era, I would definitely look there. It sure is a fun place to take pictures – such as these shots of some new releases for Accessory Fair and a dress from L’Abel.

Dropped from a boss

Hello, it’s Achariya, emerging from the dust to show off new horns from RUE and a new corset from Nomine.  Lately I’ve been putting together my very first SL photography gallery show (the opening is today at 11AM SLT, eek), and I haven’t really had time to create an outfit all at once.  I like that this outfit grew kind of organically, as if my avatar put on each item after it dropped from something she slew. /Warcraft.  This new Nomine corset looks as if an enslaved elf made it before the evil orc boss swallowed the elf and corset whole. I am extremely happy that Ruina is back in SL and making stuff, and this set of horns I’m wearing is the most low-key out of a bunch of new creations.  Another set of her horns (and another new Nomine corset) is here.  Have wonderful Sundays, everyone!  More photos and the outfit credits behind the cut.

Embracing The Bubblegum Challenge

Once upon a time, I showed up at my friend’s palace (yeah only SL can I start a story this way and you not even blink), with purple hair. I’d been hair shopping, and the response from my friends was “Why is your hair purple?”  Continue reading
