Look No. 167: When In Doubt....Wear Red

"There is a shade of red for every woman."
~ Audrey Hepburn ~


Hello again! Today I'm bringing you new releases from four awesome designers: B Bos, MODA Designs, DS'ELLES and Loordes of London.

Let's begin with the gorgeous porcelain-like skin I'm wearing. It's by DS'ELLES and it's called Aline and can be purchased in 4 colors: Porcelaine, Neva, Colorado and Java. It's currently available for purchase at the FAD Fashion Event which is now open. Appliers for Slink Hands & Feet, Slink Physique, Maitreya, Belleza and Eve are available at the DS'ELLES main store.

The pretty, flowing, red dress I'm wearing is B Bos's latest new release. It's a mesh dress and comes packaged with 5 standard mesh sizes. It you can purchase this dress in 9 other colors/textures as well. I am wearing this dress with my Maitreya mesh body. If you want to see if it will fit your mesh body, I highly recommend trying on the demo (demo is free) before you buy it.


The sexy platform pumps I'm wearing are from MODA Designs. As almost all of MODA's shoes does, it come packaged with an amazing color/texture HUD (30 custom MODA colors and 6 patterns) which will allow you to mix and match the body of the shoes, the heels and the bows however  your heart desires. These heels are for Slink High Feet only (feet sold separately). You can purchase these shoes at a promotional price of 99 Lindens.



The beautiful beaded and gold necklace I'm wearing is by Loordes of London. It's available in 3 different bead colors and is available for purchase now on their board outside their main store under "Steals & Deals".



The armbands and bracelets are by Ryca both are available for purchase in silver. Finally, the hair is by Tableau Vivant. It was one of their exclusives at the Hair Fair that just concluded but you can pick it up at the main store.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Whether I'm Wearing Jeans Or A Dress...I Always Wear High Heels

"A woman carries her clothes. Bu the shoe that carries a woman."
~ Christian Louboutin ~


Hello again! Today I'm back with new releases from MODA Designs and Toxic Candy Couture. I have two mesh outfits from Toxic Candy Couture...a jeans outfit and a dress. I paired them up with some sexy heels from MODA. I hope you love them as much as I do.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 165: Cordiale Outfit & Alyssa Jeweled Platforms

The Cordiale Outfit is a tank and jeans outfit. It is mesh and comes packaged with 5 standard sizes for both the top and the jeans. I am wearing this outfit with my Maitreya mesh body but the designer does not guarantee it will fit all mesh bodies.



I paired this outfit with MODA Design's Alyssa Jeweled Platforms. Six textures were added to the amazing 30-color HUD and one of them is the blue jeans material that I used and added a touch of silver and accented it with red jewels to bring out the red heart on the tank top. This shoe will fit Slink High Feet, Maitreya and TMP Ouch; however, it's highly recommended you try on the demo (demo costs 1L) prior to purchase to ensure a great fit.



The hair, if you don't recognize it, was Argrace's exclusive at this year's Hair Fair that just concluded. The hat is attached to the hair. You can now pick it up at their store. The jewelry is all from Ryca.

The Cassandra dress is an adorable mesh mini dress that's available in several color/textures. It comes packaged with 5 standard mesh sizes and a fitted mesh as well. I am wearing this with my Maitreya mesh body; however, the designer does not guarantee it will fit all mesh bodies.



I decided to pair this dress with MODA's Elana Fringe Heels because the dress just called for a fun party and this is exactly what the Elana Fringe Heels is. In Usual MODA fashion, this shoe comes with their amazing 30-color/6-texture/2 metal-HUD and as you can see, I took advantage of it. Please note, this shoe is for Slink High Feet only. It is currently available, both at the main store and on Marketplace, at a promotional price of 99 Lindens.



The hair is Lelutka's exclusive at this year's Hair Fair that just concluded. I'm not sure if it's being sold at their store. I did go over there to look but couldn't find it. Maybe you'll have better luck than I do since I find their hair store a bit confusing. The jewelry is all from Ryca.

For Lexi

"For it is in giving that we receive."
~St. Francis of Assisi ~



Hi there! Most of us know that The Lexi Project opened today and most of us know the purpose of The Lexi Project. For those of you who have not heard of this very special fashion event, it's to benefit Lexi Zelin (owner of AngelRED Couture) who, sadly, has been diagnosed with Stage 3 Hodgekin's Lymphoma and is no longer able to work because of the pain she is suffering from. She's only 28 years old and mother to a young girl and facing high medical bills and expenses. Hence, thanks to Toxxic Rhiannyr & Heather Smithson, The Lexi Project came about. 


Two of my sponsors, I'piteme and Soul Emporium, are two of the over 300 designers who have decided to give back to Lexi. So in this post, I am highlighting what they are offering exclusively for this event.

The Lexi Project is open until August 9th and I hope you will go there and give back by purchasing an item or two or three or more. 100% of all proceeds go to Lexi...all the designers will get is that wonderful feeling they have helped someone who gave so much back.

Until next time...happy shopping....and happy giving!

Look No. 163: I'piteme's Wild Life Jeans, Bandeau and Heels

This is a very cute, very sexy mesh outfit that comes in five standard sizes and color/texture HUDs for the Jeans, Bandeau and chunky heels (for Slink High Feet). A really nice feature of this outfit is you can mix and match the colors if you want some variety. I am wearing this outfit with my Maitreya mesh body so it should work with most mesh bodies.

Look No. 163: Make A Wish Upon A Starfish

"Not all stars belong in the sky."
~ Unknown ~





Hello again! I didn't intend to turn this into a blog post but I was out and about flaunting my latest purchases from Collabor88, Hair Fair and some very cool wedges from MODA Designs. I was snapping pics at a neat sim called SoCal and thought...oh what the heck, why not. So hence, the birth of this blog post.






What I want to highlight in this post are the uber chic wedges I'm wearing called Whiteley Leather Wedges (pictured above). Before I became a blogger for MODA Designs, I was a very loyal customer. I own about 90 percent of MODA's shoes. There are 3 main reasons why I love MODA: the unique and sexy designs, the awesome pricing, and the color HUDS. If you are a regular reader of my blog, you KNOW I love, love, love color/texture HUDS. The Whiteley Leather Wedges comes packaged with with a 30-color (MODA custom colors) HUD (see photo below) that will allow  you to change the straps, insole, sole and platform; plus, you can switch between silver and gold for the footpad and metals on the shoes.





The Whiteley Leather Wedges will fit Slink High Feet, TMP Ouch! and Belleza (feet systems are sold separately). MODA highly recommends that you try the demo (demo cost 1L) prior to purchasing the shoes to ensure  you are happy with the fit. MODA is selling this shoe at a promotional price of 99 Lindens. On a side note, some of you may be wondering why MODA Designs charges a Linden for a demo. Well, if you want to gift this shoe to a friend but you don't know if they will like it, you can gift the demo to them to try before you gift the full version;  you are unable to gift free demos.


The adorable dress I'm wearing is from Pixicat, called the Aquatic Dress, and it's their exclusive at the current round of Collabor88. It is available in several  beautiful colors and it also can be purchased without the starfishes on the dress if you are not a fan of starfish; however, I have received a tremendous amount of compliments on the dress and I feel the starfishes add a little something special to the dress. You can purchase this dress in single colors or in a fatpack (this goes for both versions of the dress). This dress will  make a wonderful addition  to  your summer wardrobe so I do hope you will head on over to Collabor88 and pick it up.



Don't forget, the Hair Fair ends tomorrow and this round of Collabor88 will be ending within the week to get ready for August.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 162: Don't Stand Out...Be Remembered

"Elegance is not standing out, but being remembered."
~ Giorgio Armani ~


Hello again! This past week I became a blogger for We Love To Blog (WLTB). So in today's post, I am bringing you a fierce outfit from one of the WLTB Designers, LX Essentials. This mesh corset/harem pants set is called Corset Set and it is available in 10 gorgeous colors: pink, chrome, earth, ash, purple, red, aqua, midnight, royal and green. The outfit comes packaged with 8 sizes: 5 standard mesh and 3 fitted mesh (standard, Physique and TMP). It also comes with a HUD to change the color of the 3 buttons on the corset (in my photographs, the necklace is covering the buttons). You can wear the corset with the Maitreya mesh body and Belleza's Venus and Isis mesh bodies (the designer has enclosed a notecard for you to read when fitting this out fit to your specified mesh body). It is also highly recommended that you try the demo (demo is free) on first prior to purchase to make sure  you are happy with the fit. Please note: the outfit appears much lighter than it really is because I am using a projector to give me more light for photography purposes. The actual color is what you see at the bottom portion of the pants where the light is not hitting it.



The really sexy shoes I'm wearing in the photos above are a new release by Moda Designs called Xandi Leather Heels. These shoes are specifically for Slink High Feet and TMP Ouch! (please remember the feet are NOT included). As with every shoe you purchase from Moda, it comes with Moda's  very generous signature HUD (see photo below)6 that contains 30 colors on six changeable faces. This allows  you to mix and match the colors of the body, sides, insole, heel, sole and platform of the shoes; giving you endless possibilities on how to color your shoes. You can also change the color of the zipper, located in the heels of the shoes from silver to gold. Please do try on the demo (demos costs 1 Linden) prior to purchase so you are happy with the fit and all the colors on the HUD.



 Now, let's discuss the hair and jewelry. The hair is one of Tableau Vivant's offerings at the Hair Fair called Last Train. The necklace is by Remarkable Oblivion that I purchased at Kustom 9's current round. The bracelets and earrings are from Mandala. Finally, the septum ring is from Moda Designs.

Look No. 161: I Dream of Tuscany

“If I lived here...I have a feeling this place would take me.
~ Frances Mayes ~


Hello again! As I told you a few posts ago, my blogging was going to slow down due to a major move in about a month. So I apologize for taking so long in getting this post to you. Today I'm going to show you new releases by Flippant and Moda Designs.

They say "simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" and the Flippant's Uptown Dress is just that. It is a complete outfit that includes pencil dress, shoes, a clutch, earrings, necklace and ring; the shoes and clutch are shown in the last photo below. It comes with a color/texture HUD that will allow you to change the color of the dress, shoes, clutch and the stones in the jewelry to match what ever color dress you choose. This is a mesh outfit with five standard sizes plus a fitted mesh that worked very well with my Maitreya mesh body. I do recommend trying on the demo (demo is free) prior to purchase to ensure a perfect fit. You can pick this beautiful outfit for only 299 Lindens at both Flippant's Marketplace and main stores

The sexy red pumps I'm wearing are one of the new releases by Moda Designs called Bijou Pumps. If you are familiar with Moda, you know the pack will come with an awesome HUD with 30 (6 NEW COLORS) custom Moda colors on 2 different changeable faces plus, new on this HUD, are the added 6 patterns on each of the 2 faces (zebra,leopard, etc.). The shoes are specifically for Slink High Feet and Belleza system feet (feet are sold separately). Please be sure to try the demo (demo costs 1L) prior to purchase to make sure you are happy with the fit prior to purchase. The Bijou Pumps are being sold at a promotional price of 99 Lindens at both on Moda's Marketplace and main stores.

Until next time...happy shopping!
