Blooming in June

Oh, the Designer Showcase Network dropped another stunning dress on me. This lovely Hothouse Flower from Ingenue showed up in my inbox and reminds me how much I love Ingenue’s lovely vintage clothing. This dress, however, seems to indicate some new, more contemporary, styles are coming out as well.  The sculptie bodice is a delight and after increasing it just a bit to fit the bust, it was perfect. I also have to give her props for attaching the bodice to the right pec, leaving the spine and chest free for jewelry.

Whippet & Buck

Some stores have names that just sound like they are fated to offer outstanding quality and succeed – to be the stores that become the clothiers of generations. Well, clothing generations of Second Life residents might be an outsized ambition, but Whippet & Buck have the name, and most importantly, they have the quality. The name makes me think of England and John Robert Cozens and all those country fashions of investment dressing – the dress that is timeless and is worn for decades. Well, they seem to have that idea in mind themselves as their forms are timeless and classic, such as this magnificent pencil dress and crop jacket.

I ♥ Pixel Dolls

I ♥ Pixel Dolls. They were one of the first stores of my Second Life and one where I spent many of my hard-earned lindens. Believe me, when you get paid 300L/week for clearing prim trash at a mall, you earn it and every purchase is long-considered, and Pixel Dolls earned a warm spot with its reasonable cost, many layers and fabulous fat packs. This outfit, Leonides, is just a perfect example of why they are wonderful. It is flexible, can be worn multiple ways and can be worn as separates with other clothing. No wonder I and many, many others ♥ Pixel Dolls.

Summer Nights

When you want to dress up for those hot summer night, sometimes the freshness of icy colors like silver and ice blue can make you feel just a tiny bit cooler. Sure, it’s all in your head, but so is everything else in life.  This Pixel Dolls Limelight corset in silver looks almost like I am wearing ice and that could give you just a little shiver of cool feeling.  The ice blue skirt is from LeeZu and is icier than you think. The Skyline necklace and earrings have an icy look, too. These are from a store I discovered on a hunt – ci:di

Summer Days

Summer dresses are like summer days, bright and cheerful and full of light and air. This Holly dress from Kungler’s is definitely a perfect summer dress. It was a gift from Barbra Kungler – a thank you for including her in my Double Take project. How lovely is that, she was posing as a favor for me and I got a present out of it – and a lovely present as you can see.

The Fastest Compliment Ever

Okay, so I was checking out some demos from DrLife and Rockberry and generally futzing around when I got an IM reminding me that Achariya was going to me on Fabulous Fashion TV and so I dropped what I was doing and just before TP’ing I realized I had on DEMO skin. Now, unnoticed, Ryker Beck had sent out two Blogger packs of her two new skin releases under the new brand Exodi (previously Genesis) and they were sitting there innocently waiting in the folder right above the demo packs, so I  quickly popped it open and wore the first skin I clicked on and tp’ed away. No sooner did I get there than I received an IM – “love your skin!!! can you tell me where you got it.”  Well, I knew it was Exodi, but I had not even looked at what I looked like yet. I just had perfect confidence that if Ryker made it, it was fab. And well, judge for yourself.

This is what else I was wearing… The flower wash jeans from Callie Cline on sale right now for 50L. I have been planning to hop over there and pick them up, but the sale lit a fire and I went there first thing where I ran into Callie so I grabbed her for my Double Take project.

Paint Second Life Purple

Now this is purple. This will be a quick post as the dresses and shoes are again from Feel China and R2 and the skins from Curio, but I so enjoyed the lovely, bright dresses at Feel China and could not wait to share them with you. And don’t worry they come in many colors other than purple.

Are these shoes hot or what?

Double Take

This is not fashion-related, though many of the people in the picture above are very fashionable. It’s  just something to tell you what I am up to. I have started a little project I am calling Double Take, two snaps close up of everyone I know. So, if I IM you and ask if you have 10 minutes free, this is probably why.

Paint Me Purple (More Purple)

So I was sent on a wild goose chase on Saturday. I saw a woman with adorable freckled skin that I didn’t recognize and asked her where she got it. She said it was from DrLife – so off I went to DrLife where there was not one freckled skin to be had. Actually the skins were lovely examples of the Japanese style of skins, hand-drawn, sweet and almost luminescent. I decided to wander around the store some more to see if the freckles were hiding up the stairs and found some fab hair, though the stair ramp does not work as it’s blocked by a prim so you must cam to see the upstairs of the shop.  It’s worth it. Look at that hair.

I found these dresses there, too, but suggest you go to the Feel China store directly because they’re in a vendor of 62 separate items. And with that I think I just revealed how far I can go when I am intrigued by a store.

Paint Me Purple (Wisteria)

Okay, this is only sort of purple. I am easing into the big Paint the Grid Purple todo tomorrow with this wisteria colored frock from Couverture.  The shoes are ones I chose as part of my Blogger Appreciation gift from Maitreya – from the wonderful Soho boots. What you could see if you zoomed is that fabric is very similar to the fabric in the jumper.  I could not resist.
