Elvira, Mistress of the Dorks!

Just having a little more Halloween fun tonight, with the "Horror Pops" Event at PIN UPS. I wasn't ready to go full-on gore, but settled on a cross between favorite vampy icons Elvira and Morticia Adams. It started with this great costume from A Touch of Ireland, and if you have never been there to costume shop, you have to check it out. Some crazy adorable costumes, and all really sexy too. This Morticia Dress also came with a choker I decided to leave off, but it is the plunging v-neck that made it feel more Elvira to me.



How could you not take every opportunity to wear this amazing Amy hair from Aden. It is the biggest of Bee-Hive Dos I have found yet, and it so over the top it screams for attention. The skin was a gift from bianca Foulon, who's bianca F. Drama make-ups are really worth checking out. Some are a little too over the top for me, but they are really interesting and photograph so well. Separated Lashes are from Cake, and my favorite Hazel Eyes are from Miriel.



I went with some great jewelry pieces, starting with one of the amazing gifts from the Jewelry Expo, (Caroline's) Satin Ribbon Mermaid Cameo Necklace. It's a really sweet piece, and I would have bought it if it hadn't been free, I like it that much. Kayla Brushed Steel Earrings are from from (Second Mirage), which is back in business after a brief hiatus, which is something to really be glad about. Incredibly fantastic, though mostly hidden, are the phenomenal BAX Patent Black Ankle Boots. I have no idea how Bax Coen managed to made these look so amazingly real, like they wrap the ankle like a glove, but they are undeniably sexy and sharp. Also wearing my (Caroline's) Gimcrack Diamond Solitaire Ring, which I am happy to wear any time my hand is free.

Yes I am a dork when it comes to Halloween, it is the ultimate costume-a-thon, but when else can you get away with such campy fun? Happy Halloween everyone!

The Power Suit

Every now and again we have a "Sexy Office Party" at PIN UPS Night Club. It's a chance for Guys and Gals to get on their Power Suits, or be Sexy Secretaries or Assitants, well... you get the picture. The week we had just such an event, and really, sometimes I think as an event planner, I make these event up to have a reason to SHOP! When I need a Classy Business Look I head to "First Impressions", they have always made a great impression on me, with classic looks and so many great wardrobe options. I wanted to look like the 'Bosses Wife' this event, since my Husband and PIN UPS Owner Draco was DJ and therefore 'The Boss'. I opted to wear this fabulous wig from "ETD", 'Julianna'has been one of my favorite styles ever since I saw it on my sister Anessa, and I hesitated getting it for a while becuase she wore it so often, but at the recent ETD Sale, I gave in and went for it, getting the Naturals pack which includes this amazing Copper colour. I wanted a little drama, so went for a more 'Evening' look with this great skin for "Celestial Studios", I am so stuck on the 'Charmed Line' and own it in almost every make-up, I have to say it... I just can't switch up my skins like so many people can, I am so in love with the ones I have worn for a year now, and I think that they give me a unique look if nothing else. This look came of classy, chic, and ready to rule the boardroom!

What's In My Closet: Second Mirage

While struggling to find my passion for fashion again, I choose to Participate in the "Second Mirage Flickr Fantastic" Contest and display my entire collection of "Second Mirage" Jewelry. I personally felt that "Second Mirage" could represent Every Woman, regardless of Social Status, Race, Background, and could work into a wardrobe of unique personal style. I let the Jewelry speak to me, tell me who would wear it, and then created 23 Unique Looks for each and every piece. All these "Looks" are part of who I am... and the shape in my original shape, no mods were done what-so-ever. All the clothes and skins were in my wardrobe and I painstakingly created all 23 looks one at a time. It took me hours! Some of them are just "Good" some are "Great"! I am very proud of all of them. The common thread... all the Jewelry is from BritneyJ Crimson's "Second Mirage".

Going For The Mod Feel

A fellow fashion blogger tipped me off to a great new shop called "Pop Feel" last week, and it was such a delightful find! This Outfit; Coat, Shirt and Skinny Jeans, are an all in one look that is just one of the fabulous finds at "Pop Feel". I loved the 60s Mod Feel here, and the prim mock Turtle neck on the coat makes it just so sweet! Paired with my new fave shoes, well, anything "Armidi" becomes a fast fave, in a brilliant tangerine orange, I was all set to go. This looks saw me through DJing a fashion show and all around the grid and I loathed having to change out of it!
