Imperially Elegantly Peachy

1 Reply

I love this new blouse from Kunglers. What’s not to like? It has a delightfully cinched waist with a gorgeous belt. Incidentally, the skirt comes with the same belt in case you want to wear a different blouse or wear this blouse tucked in. It’s got lovely full sleeves with sheer fabric. It’s finished with gorgeous satin ribbon on the edgess – the bottom, the sleeves and the collar. Best of all, I love the print – a chocolately brown with flowers and leaves in olive and a lovely rosy peach. It’s yummy and isn’t it great that Kunglers produced it in four other colors as well.

Hot Fun in the Summer Sun

1 Reply

A few weeks ago, Jon Stewart did a typically hilarious bit that looked at the silliness in the news regarding the Unusually Large Snowstorm on the East Coast.  Of course, like the pundits who confuse weather with climate, there was Jason Jones insisting that the snow proved that global warming was not a problem, meanwhile down in Austalia, there was Sam Bee saying that of course there was global warming, it’s 96 degrees in February! It’s a funny piece and well worth watching. Of course, it slips my mind from time to time that lots of folks in Second Life® are from the southern hemisphere and enjoying warm and sunny days. We get little reminders, though, from time to time like this lovely summery dress from Kunglers – South American designers who I hope are enjoying hot fun in the summer sun.

Dotty

Leave a reply

VUI is new to me, a store I found across the street from another shop I was at. Wandering outside a great shop is a good way to find more and that’s what happened this time. I am a slacker, though, when I saw the style of clothing I sent LMs to a couple friends and one of them has already blogged the store twice! Sadly, she has deleted her blog so I cannot give you the link.

I already said I like polka dots yesterday, but just to drive that home, look at this lovely cocktail dress from VUI. Now, it takes a completely different approach to dots – but one that’s equally valid and also manages to produce a look that is both cute and elegant. Two looks that can often be achieved alone, but not as often achieved together. The dots are cute and so is the skirt pouf, but the smaller size of the dots and longer length of the skirt add elements of elegance.  A dress to make me really happy.

Tropicalia

3 Replies

I love that the fabric in this lovely blouse from Kunglers is called Tropicalia, I assume after the Brazilian music movement that incorporated the sounds and rhythms of Brazil with the psychodelic rock of the United States, most notably the music of Jimi Hendrix.  It’s a small reminder of the power of music – so powerful that the Tropicalistas were actually imprisoned for their music. You can read a little about the movement and list to a couple samples here.  The actual design of the blouse is quite sweet, with short puff sleeves finished with ribbon bows and a gentle ruffle around the collar. I paired its softness with the much more structured highwaist skirt from Maitreya that gives the traditional pencil skirt a new contemporary form.

This chemise with garters is a sexy addition to your lingerie collection – of which I know you always need more. I chose the steele blue color because apparently I’m stuck on blue today but it comes in a rainbow of beautiful hues for whatever your favorite color might be.

Since I never throw anything away, I had these excellent ribbed tights that were part of a funky disco outfit from Pixel Dolls last year. When I saw this sweater/skirt set at Honey Soul – I knew they’d make a great fall look. Continue reading →

The Colors of the Season:A Mashup of Some of My Faves

There are some days that I like getting dressed out of my inventory as though it were a closet, pulling out pants, tops, etc vs just opening a folder and slapping everything ON.

Don’t get me wrong, the latter is EASIER, but I like wearing things together that were not intended as such – sometimes I have a lot more fun with it. Such as this outfit I wore roaming around the grid the other night. Continue reading →

Number 100: Artis Natur

1 Reply

When I chose the shoes for this outift I realized I was shooting the 100th Adam n Eve post and decided that it only made sense to head over to their lovely landscaped photo park to take the pictures. Artis Natur is great for photos as you can rez your posestand or use a pose hud and snap away.  I love the feeling of walking through an impressionist painting. I also love the Kunglers Jacket I chose for this outfit. It’s called Cristiana and this floral option is a beautiful ode to chinoiserie. The rich skirt is from A la Folie.

Denim Days

It’s Friday – and I am feeling casual and denim suits my mood, so luckily there’s this lovely little jumper from Kunglers in a soft denim. With grey denim trim at the waist, this is a nice casual day dress that goes anywhere. Suiting all weather, too, as you can easily slip a turtleneck sweater underneath.
