This is the month many of you will fall in love with Collabor88 all over again. The theme is New Romance and it is rife with hearts and flowers, frills and furbelows and overall romantic femininity. It’s so sweet and girlie, you will have to brush your teeth after visiting. The epitome of the triple strawberry sundae with whipped cream and a cherry on top that is this New Romance showcase is the delightful Shabby Chic confection from Nylon Outfitters. First, let me say Brava! to Nylon Pinkney for recognizing that mesh is not the be-all and end-all of SL design and for opting instead to use the best option to realize her design. She has a lovely assortment of dresses in a lovely challis with a large, old-fashioned floral print. With them, she adds a lovely sheer lace blouse. She uses mesh for the skirt panel, but lets the dress fit snuggly and the see-through lace work with struggling with alphas.
I headed over the Visionaria for the Insight Forest Photo & Art Exhibition. It was a lovely spot and I could not resist shooting my post photos before walking through the gallery to enjoy the fabulous art work. There are ten artists exhibiting and you definitely should stop by and see their work.
I added the Gos Boutique Mae Platforms whose ruffled heel counter makes them a perfect accompaniment to the New Romance aesthetic at Collabor88.
Donna Flora released this jewelry last week. It also works beautifully, adding a bold and outrageous bit of romance to the mix.
Skin Fair is coming on the 15th and Sachi Vixen of Adam n Eve has whipped up some fantastic new skins. This Bethany skin is fresh and innocent, full or romance and optimism. I added the freckles tattoo layer because I could not resist. The hair, from D!va, for Collabor88 is pure romance.
