P is for Perla in Donna Flora A to Z

2 Replies

And Perla just happens to be my FAVORITE dress from Donna Flora’s collection! It can be worn as a casual day dress with the hat or dressed up and worn out for a night on the town with some fancy jewelry. I chose the casual look today, as it IS Sunday.

Week 5 – Patina

I did an inventory search and came up with this dress from e! which seemed to be the perfect match for Patina!  I also downloaded the newest Firestorm viewer and low and behold I could shoot SHADOWS and not lag!!!!

You have no idea how happy that makes me… I have an ATI graphics card and it seems SL and shadows do not like ATI cards… until now (shhhh don’t tell anyone lest they take it away).

Week 3 – Electric Indigo

Leave a reply

Short and sweet cause I’m going to try to catch up today….
Electric Indigo was a sweater that was custom made for me by my friend Gideon Styles, owner and creator of *G* Styles Fashion & Design.  He has a great line of shirts for men and women.

I have tried and tried and tried to get shadows in SL and without fail they have failed me. Until now that is. Today I had a catastrophic failure of my Firestorm Viewer and for some reason it would NOT let me back in to SL. So I messaged one of my photographer friends and she gave me a couple of viewer suggestions to try. Well the very first one I tried was Nirans Viewer and O.M.G. IT RAWKS!

Thought I’d mention that since I just noticed it when I typed it up there ^^^!
Anywho…. back to my Look of the Day….
First, for my casual look today, I’ve donned a cute sweater and pair of capri jeans from Somnia.

This warm sweater is from the Striped Queen collection and the pants are from the Tweed Waders Muted collection. Both are new to the store and perfect for a cool fall day.

This jewelry set is one I happened to pick up at the Vintage Fair and is a very versatile piece from Amorous called Refrain.  The jewels are color changing and so is the metal.

AND last but not least….. the SHOES…. and these are the NEWEST release (just today) from Kalnins Fashion.  The Audrey Sandal is a gorgeous crocodile sandal, with an EASY to use HUD for matching your skin effortlessly.  Just see for yourself ~
