Look No. 133: Focus On The Woman

"I want people to see the dress but focus on the woman."

~ Vera Wang ~

Hello again! New from Toxic Candy Couture is a really amazing dress called Nat. It's a mesh mini dress, with a cutout around the waistline and a large gold buckle holding the top and skirt together at the front.  It comes packaged with five standard mesh sizes and is available in three colors (as shown below) which are all sold separately. This dress can be worn with your favorite heels or booties...or, if you want to give it a retro feel, you may want to try a simple pair of black or white, calf-high leather or suede boots. I did attempt to wear this dress with my Maitreya mesh body but the alpha cuts in the upper thigh area were a bit to big to hide around the hemline. I'm sure many of you are very clever in getting mesh to fit your body into mesh clothing and probably will be able to make it work. These dresses are all available for purchase at Toxic Candy Couture's Marketplace store; however, if you purchase it at the main store, you will purchase it at a discount.

Finally, in yesterday's post, I introduced the new Odyssey Eyes by Ikon and they are just amazing. In this post I'm wearing another color of those eyes called Storm. They are available in 49 gorgeous colors. With each set you purchase, you will will receive five iris sizes in both regular and mesh. It comes with a HUD that allows you to choose from regular or dark sclera (eyewhites) textures and you can add fun FX to play with like Glow, Full Bright and Flip. Right now you can pick them up at The Mens Dept until June 30th; after that, you can go to Ikon's main store to purchase them.

Until next time...happy shopping!

I Love My Jeans But I Love My Dresses Too

"I'm a jeans and a T-shirt kind of girl, but I go classy when I dress up with a little bit of sexy."

~ Adrianne Palicki ~

Hello again! Before I begin this post, I just want to apologize for being somewhat absent this past week, it's been a busy week for me and needed time to take care of those things. Now, back to business...

In today's post, I bring you a couple new releases from Toxic Candy Couture: a beautiful dress and a cool pair of jeans. Both items can be purchased on Toxic Candy's Marketplace store but please keep in mind, if you purchase either item at the main store, you will purchase them at a discount.

Before I close, Sugarush Skins has come out with another gorgeous skin called Edda. The skin is available in five tones: apricot, neutral, medium, beige and bronze. Each tone has six makeup options with a now brow option for all six. You can purchase appliers for the Maitreya and Lena mesh bodies as well as Slink hands and feet. Please be sure to visit Sugarush's main store and join their group. If you can't get in-world, you can visit their store blog or Marketplace store.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 125: Dress Barbara and Shoes

It is available in five standard sizes and available in four different patterns (see photographs below). The bonus...a pair of strappy wedges (for Slink High Feet only) comes with each dress. For those of you who have mesh bodies, I am wearing this dress with my Maitreya mesh body in the photos below.

It's All About The Shorts

"Fashion is instant language."

~ Miuccia Prada ~

Hello again! Today I'm back with a couple of awesome shorts outfits from Toxic Candy Couture. What I like about today's post is I have something for those of you who like the more Kawaii style and something for those of you who don't. Personally, I love both outfits and would wear both of them.

They are both available on Toxic Candy Couture's Marketplace store; however, if you purchase them from the main store, you will receive a discount.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 109: Stanis Strapless Romper Shorts

For those of you who like/love Kawaii, you will love this mesh romper. It comes packaged with 5 sizes and a pretty black floppy hat. I am not wearing the hat in any of my photos because I don't really wear hats that don't come with hair. (I'm OCD and it bothers me when i see hair sticking out of hats and I have never been good at fixing that issue.) If you have a mesh body...yes, you should be able to wear it. In the photos below, I am wearing it with my Maitreya mesh body. The romper is available in 3 other color combinations and I have provided photos of those additional colors below.

If you like that sandals I'm wearing, they are also from Toxic Candy Couture. The are made for Slink flat feet only and available in several colors.

Other color options for the Stanis Strapless Romper Shorts available for purchase.

Hello again! This week, Toxic Candy Couture brings you a cute mini dress and a sexy jumpsuit. The Summer dress is a mesh dress that comes packaged with five sizes and available in four colors/patterns (see photograph below). The Benedicte is a mesh jumpsuit that comes packaged with five sizes and available in nine beautiful colors (see photograph below). The dress cannot be worn with mesh bodies because of the cut in the front but the jumpsuit can with a few tweaks here and there. Both are available on Toxic Candy Couture's Marketplace store but remember, if you purchase it in-world at the main store, you will pay a lower price.

"Sugar and spice and all things nice...that's what girls are made of."

~ Anonymous ~

Hello again! Today I bring you two new releases by Toxic Candy Couture. When you see them, you'll understand why I titled this post, "Sugar and Spice For Everyday Life". These dresses are not yet available on Toxic Candy Couture's Marketplace store (but they should be within the next few days); however, if you purchase in-world, you can pick them up at a discount.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 88: Cathy Dress

The Cathy Dress is the "sugar" in this post. It's a cute, casual, mini sundress that is perfect for the beach, a romantic picnic with that special someone, that shopping spree with your girlfriends or a relaxing day at home. It is mesh and are available in the five standard mesh sizes. You can wear it with your mesh body; however, you will need to tweak your body a bit around the armpit area. Other than that, it fits the mesh body great! It is available in three colors: burgundy, brown and black (photograph for the other two colors are provided below).

The "spice" in this post is the Almeria dress. It's a sexy leather dress that show's off your legs in the front and gradually lowers it's length to the back around the mid-calf area. The posture collar that comes with the dress is a separate piece so if you're not into collars or not in the mood to wear one, you can simply choose not to wear it. This dress is mesh and is available in the five standard mesh sizes and for you mesh body lovers...it fit both my Maitreya and Slink bodies perfectly!
