A Trip To Moscow.

Look Of The Day  [Dec. 12/09] 1

It is no secret that I love shoes, but just as in my RL, it is boots that really get me going. When I was in high-school, I lived in heeled boots, cowboy boots, or fryers. I was such the bad-ass rocker chick. I still love boots, and when I received a gift of these amazing review copy boots from *REDGRAVE*, the Moscow Boot I had to log and try them on. The minute I had them rezzed on my feet I was in love. The amazing fur texture, the buckles, and a perfect fit from minute one. I decided to build a whole outfit around them. I chose the Pure Black pair, although they come in at least 5 variations.

Look Of The Day  [Dec. 12/09] 2

I have been hanging on to this great coat from :bijou: since last season, as I often do, I hadn't even tried it on, but when it matched the boots so perfectly, I knew I was on to something. This is the Avanti style in Black Rabbit. Rather then try to layer the look up, I simply went with a great pair of Tartan Tights from Maitreya. I couldn't resist pulling on *KessKreations* Festivus Ring, the name makes me laugh, and a great pair of Art Deco Earrings in Onyx from Bliesen & MaiTai. Both are scripted to customize metals and gem colors, something I adore in Jewelry. I found the bag in my Review Copies folder, have no idea how long I have had it, but Wanda's 'Tania' Handbag was a perfect match as it is scripted to ting, and I matched it to the Jacket with a click.

Look Of The Day  [Dec. 12/09] 3

I have a folder full of hair from the last Hair Fair, which was just before my 'break' from Second Life. I dove in and found this amazing (fd)Dorothy's Morning wig, it has a sleek look, but is soft and has a very realistic strand texture. I loved pairing it with this Fleur Vivant Blush Dig Ophelia 3 Skin, the beauty mark made me feel a touch like Dita Von Teese. I wore my favorite [Detour] Love Lashes and the fabulous but no longer available Miriel Realistic Eyes in Muted Hazel.

Something about the whole combination of soft fur textures and the lovely softness of the wig just worked for me. It is a simple look, but it is really sleek and refines. The tights add just enough colour to keep it from being too monochrome. Yesterday, when I logged to blog, I did something I haven't done in over 6 months in SL, I shopped a little. It was just a little, but it felt strange and kind of good in that people watching, waiting for things to rez sort of way. Maybe I will see you out on my next trip, if I can muster the nerve to brave the lag again.

Leaving On A Jetplane

Look Of The Day [November 29/08] 1

When I recently DJd for the re-opening of the Avatrait Gallery, I wanted to wear something classy, but not too formal, edgy and unique, but still tasteful. I tried to remember what new things I had that would fit the bill, and discovered this great Jetset dress in Tokyo from :bijou:. It includes two skirt versions, system and prim, bur I threw the folder on so fast I got both, and decided I really liked the way they looked together. This dress really re-minds me of a black silk dress I wore to s special event when I was about 17 years old, to this day I refuse to allow my mother to give it away, almost 20 years later, it is still a favorite, even though it no longer fits. The dress has a great system layer belt, with accentuates the waist, and adds interest, but also gave me the cute to go with brown and gold accessories. I really love the big flared bell sleeves too.

Look Of The Day [November 29/08] 3

I kept with the winter season look by adding a pair of **Battered Boudoir** hose, I love the different colours and options in Eloria LeShelle's hosiery. Any Canadian woman would never go out in the winter without hose or tights under a dress, so I naturally work it in-world too. The shoe solution that seems to be endlessly wearable are the Maitreya ChiChi Pumps in Black, with the colour change rims, here I chose gold. I pulled in a big clutch from *Muism* to add a little glam to the look. I went with wooden and brown accessories, and normally would not put black and brown together, but I think it really works here. The Polished Wood Hoop Earrings are one of Paper Couture's newest releases, they are really nice looking. I love this Luc Jewelry Ganesha Necklace , but I am enchanted by Hinduism in general, and the length was perfect with the neckline of the dress. My ring is from Caroline's Jewelry.

Look Of The Day [November 29/08] 2

Diving into my hair folder, I wanted and edgy short style, and settled on the ETD Aveda Short Crop 2 in Silver. The skin is from Celestial Studios, another favorite make-up, and I always come back to my Celestial Charmed Line Skins whenever I want to look like myself again. Lashes are from [Detour], with eyes from Freak Fantasia.

This is definitely a jet set look, and one that can work in semi-formal situation. It stands out without be too glitzy, and most importantly, made me feel comfortable and stylish at the same time. It's really interesting to re-discover my wardrobe, including the many hundreds of things I have never worn before.

The Sweater Dress Song

Look Of The Day [November 7/08] 1

One of the gems I picked up at the :bijou: preview was this simple, understated, yet elegant Refrain Knitdress in Night shades. I was really surprised to find it among the ultra-hip newness at :bijou: all set for the opening of the bijouholic SIM on the 11th of this month. A classic body skimming dress, with really nice trim details, almost a pearlized crocodile edging on the neckline and hem. I must admit I didn't even notice that detail until I had it on, but it really is a nice touch. The dress comes in several colour variations, but I felt this grey scale version had the best. With the almost pink colour of the trim, it opened the door to do something I rarely do, mix browns and greys together. I added a simple system layer belt from *Thimbles*, to add a little interest at the waist. The Mr. Belt is really great to wear over long tops or dresses, as it comes on the jacket layer and worked well here as the :bijou: dress which comes with all layer options. Some nice basic hosiery from **Battered Boudoir** smooths the transition from hem to boot.

Look Of The Day [November 7/08] 2

Unlike my sister Anessa, the shoe queen of Phil's Place, I have to save my pennies to get the footwear I love. I had been meaning to head over to Maitreya for over a week to get closer look at the new releases, but after getting this dress, I really made a point of going, and this pair of SoHo Boots in Ice Suede were the perfect compliment, the billowy suede of the upper boot is a nice contrast to the sleek skirt. I headed over to check out Kess Kreations for the first time this week, after seeing her work at the Jewelry Expo, I wanted to see more. Kess is incredibly talented in so many types of media, but when I saw this Wooden Bead Jewelry Set i though it was really something. It is scripted so that the stone change colour, making it really versatile. I am wearing the necklace and earrings, but it also comes with a great matching bracelet. I really like natural looking jewelry, something organic in a pixelated place. A great basic black Boulevard handbag from a past Paper Couture collection, as well as my Gimcrack Diamond Ring from (Caroline's) round out the accessories.

Look Of The Day [November 7/08] 3

After seeing it on the feeds, I had to indulge in this Ruby wig from TRUTH. It is a really cute up do, with a colour scripted bow. TRUTH's recent makeover has me a little confused, and I was rather miffed that the colour packs have changed. I really loved that the black and white shades were put together, since I wear both colours almost exclusively. I still love the hair, and it is still a reasonably priced wig, but will likely buy a bit less of it now that it means having to buy two packs instead of one to get the shades I love. Another new-to-me skin that I nabbed during the Celestial Studios sale, the Charmed Line's Earth 3 make-up, just really pretty and classic. Lashes are from [Detour], and eyes from Karamia. So back into the closet I go to find out what else may be hiding in there, may the inventory g-ds be good to me.

I Can Sing A Rainbow...

Look Of The Day [November 5/08] 1

Things you should know about my blog, I never edit my indoor or outdoor shots. I don't adjust colours, blend seams, or hide imperfections. What you see is what you get, basically. I have a pretty old graphics card, I don't see windlight features. I don't have a fancy studio, I have a three sided box with a floor that I made myself, I set it to full bright, and I edit the colour of the background to work with the clothes I am wearing. I don't play with the advanced sky menu, I just slide to the time of day lighting that looks best, and then I snap away. I basically crop, or cut out my images to slide into a three-shot collage. I take high-resolution bmp pictures, then save as high-resolution jpegs. Outdoor pictures are just cropped. The only added effect is a outline of the picture. Very basic, yet for me the best option I can think of for fast shoots. I have a Tillie's Posing Stand in my skybox that currently has 933 poses in it. I do not own a full copy of Photoshop, I use Photoshop Elements, and for me it serves it's purpose. Anyone can do what I do, it's really easy, and I think sometimes simple is best. The real trick, is putting together a great look. That can sometimes take me upwards of half an hour, embarrassing but true, and it is mainly because I am spoiled for choice since I have so much new to wear in my inventory, my shopping outpaces my ability to ever wear it all.

Look Of The Day [November 5/08] 2

I love colour, and this look of the day is no exception. The reason this look, in my opinion, sidesteps the gaudy overdone colour trap, is that it is anchored with simple black accessories and a basic Classic Loose Tank from Armidi Everyday. The almost fluorescent Green Overdyed Jeans from Celestial Studios are an absolute scene stealing pair, the cuff options on all of Starley's pants are great, you can wear them the way you prefer, skinny, boot, or wide cuffed. Speaking of Celestial Studios, if you have ever wanted to pick up some great skins, this is the time. Yesterday I picked up the last 10 I was missing from my all time favorite Charmed Line skins. At just $500LaLas a pop, it was the perfect opportunity to complete my set, and this amazing Purple - Eggplant make-up is one I have been drooling over for ages. It added a great complimentary colour to the green, so I went with some Purple Alpaca Armwarmers from Argyle as well.

Look Of The Day [November 5/08] 3

On to accessories, and a brilliant Casual Purse I nabbed at the ETD sale going on now. Unless I was misreading the prices, everything is one sale, and it is all priced at unbelievable low cost. I think many items, like shoes and purses, were less then $50LaLas. Get out to ETD before the sale ends, endure the lag, it is more then worth it. The great Orange Butterfly Necklace, which serves to balance out the one-sided ponytail, is from *i-Candy*. I love the triple strand, and the ties in the back, really great detail there. The Triple Hoop Blet! (not a misspelling) is from ~First Flower~, the shine worked well with the -Tesla- 'Diva' Heels in Black, and it is a great added element at the waist. Spike Bands from WRONG give the look a little edge, along with some great Oldskool tattoos from TRUTH. A Nose Stud from Tickled Pink, and great Tunnel Multi Set Earrings from Drifting Sands finish off my fancy pants accents.

So getting back to my point about not editing my shots. This amazing hair from :bijou:, called Rene, was one I picked up at the preview of the new bijouholic SIM. It officially opens on November 11th, but I was lucky to be added to the access list for the brief preview window. I really love this style, the side ponytail, and the twisted ropes of hair across the back pf the wig, the swept bangs are nice too. The texture and shine is really well done. You will see some grey streaks across my face and to the side of the ponytail, those are the ends of the prims, and they are less visible on the lighter colours and in general, when I don't have my full facelight on. I could likely go in and try to edit them to make them transparent, but they really didn't bother me enough to not say how great this one style is and show it to you. I think it is pretty great, and so are the new releases in-store. I picked up a pile of amazing while there, I hope to share some of it soon. Eyes are from Karamia, and lashes are from [Detour].

Bronzed Diva

Look Of The Day [May 21/2008] 1

I am not someone who tans in RL, I had a bad burn when I was 16 (stupid me trying to get a one day Tan to show my Friends I was indeed in Florida for Spring Break). Since then, I have stayed away, and am pale as a ghost most of the time. In-world, I have never gotten a tanned or bronzed skin, it never occurred to me that I could. When I saw this Riding swimsuit at :bijou:, I wanted it bad. When I got home and put it on, lets just say my pale skin and this suit made me look mostly naked. Great planning Kets! Well, thank g-d that Payton Heron sent me some review skins from bianca F., and one of them was this delicious Fata Sahara Bronze tone, I felt every bit the goddess in this skin, no sunburns, and boy did the bathing suit look every bit as brilliant as I had hoped.

I felt like a total Diva in this look, like one of those uber rich trophy wives who sits in the sun all day sipping Mohitos and browsing Vogue Magazine while calling her stylist with a shopping list while flipping pages. The hair is a brilliant cut from ETD, the Roxie is a perfect combination of flexi and non-flexi pieces, and looks super chic and still has all the edge I love. No one does that look better then Elika. Also wearing some sultry Love Lashes from [Detour] and some glossy eyes from Freak Fantasia.

Look Of The Day [May 21/2008] 2

The shoes are the brilliant Venus Sandals from *HUB*, and I think I did well choosing this amazing golden Sand colour. They look great against tanned skin, and pretty much can work with any look this season. I am wearing the Gillian Ring from Diamonde., which actually was a purple and red toned silver ring, but I tinted it a golden yellow to get this amazingly perfect match to the suit. Diamonde. has some amazing stuff, made better by the fact that you can get some of Valena Glushenko's Another Skin Mods with your purchase, this ring and the Gillian Skin (not worn) were a ridiculously awesome $50LaLas. The Long Onyx Necklace and Gold Bracelet Stack are from .+*aya V.*+., great modern accessories, and great prices too. Hidden but still awesome are the Tunnel Multi Set Earrings from Drifting Sands, cover your ear in piercings, tunnels and a cuff with a single attachment point used, love that.

Being A Good Sport...

Look Of The Day [April 21/2008] 2

I am finally getting the hang of the new Snapshot feature in-world. I miss my 1024x1024 undistorted shots, but I shall have to crop, crop, crop for now. I also am having a hell of a time with System Skirts, but that is whole other story. So I am being a good sport so to speak, playing along with Phil's constantly changing rules. So here is a sporty little look that is all about comfort and fun, with a whole lot of style. On my last trip to :bijou:, I snagged this awesome Foxy Sweatsuit, which comes in a set with a printed version and non-printed version. This is the Blue Printed, with adorable pink lip prints. Very sweet, and I love the prim hood & pant legs. I decided that my chest was a little bare without something under it, although it is damn sexy. For for me a sassy Pink Zee Tank Top from /artilleri/ did the trick.

I tossed on a watch from Fetch Alternative, love this chunky Pink Vega Watch. I threw in a little piece of twinkle, with this cute Pink Lucky Star Necklace from Simply Spoiled, had it forever, and it is a bit-o-newbie-bling, but it makes me laugh. My fab Hearty Flats are from ~GRACILE~, and they are so cool, it picks up on the hot trend for flats, and keeps it sporty. For added value, they are texture change scripted, so you have some colour options too. Of course, I am wearing my Caroline's engagement ring.

This hair is another great find, across the way from :bijou: at Mirai. This is the Lavn style in White, and it is punky, but not overly so, and I love all the height on top, hot big volume hair is always welcome. Skin from biancaF. in the Ivory Fata Tone, and this amazing Bloom purple and pink eye-shadow is so pretty. Eyes are the Big Money Watery Eyes from BBBM, so lovely, and Love Lashes from [Detour]. OK Phil... you wanna play with my "other" life, I am so up for the challenge!

A Coating of Many Colours...

Saturday was event hopping day, and event hop I did. I started of at The Ivalde and Elegance Hats Show Under the Big Top at NexCore, and then caught the amazing show at Best of SL Boulevard for the opening of the SIM. Since my first stop was literally a Circus, I wanted to go for bright and fun colours, and needed look no further than this amazing ensemble from :bijou:. This is the Linda in Green, and includes the bustier, Corset belt, shorts, leggings, gloves, and prim/stocking leg-warmers. It also comes in half a dozen other colour combinations, all utterly fabulous, and all ready to wear as a set, or to take apart and use individually. The system elements are really brilliantly utilized in this look, and it makes it well worth the price for all the ways you can work it. And even better, :bijou: has just remodelled their shop and put out oodles of new stuff, it really is worth a trip!

This look was so complete, I didn't feel it needed much in the way of accessories, but since my favorite colour this season is yellow, I wanted to kick in a little more from my box of Crayolas. This adorable Yellow Clutch from Tres Blah! is a wonderful item that can really make almost any look more polished, and is just one of the shades of yellow to have this season. I was dying for a chance to wear these awesome Slinky Stilettos from Maitreya in this tart-sweet Yellow colour, and opted for the steel tipped heels to go with the metal of the buttons on the pants. I was feeling a bit of the Hip-Hop Diva Vibe here, so threw on a Chunky Heart Necklace from Miam Miam as well.

I am wearing one of my new Canimal skins, the Essence of.. PinUp in Grace Tone. I really am enjoying them, and can't wait to see what new make-up options Canimal Zephyr will release next... I can't help it, I want more! The wig I am sporting is another bit of fun from Here Comes Trouble, again in the fabulous two-toned Exclusive Pack. I love this style, called Nalirra, for it's awesome back combed beehive top, and the streaks of blond to contrast the black. Hazel Eyes from Decollage, and once again, my beloved Love Lashes from Detour. Who says you can't wear the whole box of Crayolas at once? Not Me!

How to Emo-te

I think "amerie's NAUGHTY" is now one of my favorite shops in SL, Amerie Spitteler's work is creative and fresh, the designs are cute and kitschy, and the options in each look are infinitely re-workable and her separates are really versatile. This outfit, with the exception of the tights is called "EMO Girl" and I love the open collar with the loose tie, the Jacket is classic and the skirt, also included is just adorable. Sometimes schoolgirl looks are tricky, you either look like a Porn Star or like something from a Japanese Anime Fantasy. This look is a little bit School Girl, but a lot classy too.

I was looking for an opportunity to wear these fabulous printed tights from ":bijou:", and I think they look fabulous here. The shoes, called 'Serpenti' by Damen Gorilla of "Adam N Eve" were a gift; they appeared in the folder of items I sent in my BOGOF (Buy One Get One Free) Voucher Request after the recent sale. Some folks may not a fan of a pointy-toed shoe, but I love them, and these look positively dangerous, so sexy! The purse, a little touch of cute that I picked up from "Nerdy Birdy" ages ago came in a pack with about 8 colours, but when I tried to hunt down the SLURL today, it looks like the shop has been sold and the new owner has yet to re-open, so I am not sure it will be available again.

When it come to hair, I must say that I like to mix it up, but I do have my favorite designers (ETD, Armidi, TRUTH, Celstial Studios, Maitreya, Old Gravy come to mind immediately) but I have been checking out some "NEW to ME" stuff lately, and this style called 'Elina' from "Diversity Hair" is one of them. I really love how it looks, the textures are nice, and although not really Flexi, I think this style is really well done and something I really have not seen around, I am a big fan of something that sort of diverts from the well traveled fashion paths. This is my version of the EMO Girl... but I could have done it a dozen other ways, which is why it is worth every Linden!

Best Dressed in Blue & Copper

Another "Best Dressed" Event, another chance to wear one of my 'Best Dresses". This gown, from "::bijou::" is stunning in it's colour combination and vibrancy. My sister Anessa Stine is always tipping me off to great new shops, and "::bijou::" was another winner for sure. Again, a tiny pet-peeve is the lack of glitch pants, but I whipped up some turquoise panties and was good-to-go. Paired with simple pumps, and and funky up-do from "Maitreya" and I was feeling mighty vibrant!

City Chic

Time to shop means putting together a Classy Fashionista look! I threw this look together for a shopping trip with Draco, and it wowed me! This corset is Perfection, it even has the breast piece insert to make it look like the leather wraps the body as opposed to hugs it. Made by Bijou, it includes the blouse and tights, and even a shirt that I opted not to use here. MG Fashions "London Calling Collection" offers these very hot sequin shorts. This look can go from shopping Madison Avenue to a Cocktail Party in a flash. I do love these Stiletto Moody shoes that my lovely sister Anessa Stine got me for the holidays. The little touch of red in the shoe sparks this look up!
