[Review] Seldom Blue Isabella Wedding Gown

IndigoBlue Dagostino often drops review copies on me, as so many others do, and I wish there were enough hours in my day to blog them all. When I logged yesterday, she had sent me this lovely Isabella Wedding Gown from (SELDOM BLUE). I rarely blog anything Wedding related, I never had a wedding in-world and I never wore a wedding gown but for a photo competition and a "Runaway Brides & Grooms" Event at PIN UPS. I decided to take a look at the included texture, to see what the gown looked like, remembering the first Review I did of her Serenity Dress, and curious to see what this gown might look like. What made me decide to make the time to blog it is not just the dress, which is lovely, but the price. For a limited time, the (SELDOM BLUE) Isabella Wedding Gown is only $20LaLas. Seriously!



It includes the Lace Veil, and a sweet golden Diamond Daisy Tiara. It also includes a pair of matching earring I opted not to wear. What I love best about IndigoBlue's work is the way she uses lace textures and has double layered skirts, which move really smoothly and have that added level of realism. She is also incredibly generous with her shoppers, often selling her beautiful creations at drastically reduced prices for limited periods of time, or giving out great freebies. The Isabella Wedding Dress is lovely, and worth the trip to get, as it can easily be worn sans veil and tiara as an evening gown. Check out the rest of (SELDOM BLUE)'s offerings while there, there is something for every taste.



I really like to go simple when I wear a spectacular gown, and this one is no exception. I wore a double White Bead Strand from OPIUM Everyday, part of a double set, and perfect because it can be tinted endlessly. The Engagement ring is from Caroline's Jewelry, the Gimcrack Diamond Solitaire Ring is my constant companion. I am also wearing =DeLa*= Helia Pumps in Vanilla, which although hidden are a lovely shaped classic pump and a perfect match for this gown.



I adore this Armidi Hair Symphony Twist Style, it is lovely and classic and such an elegant updo, with a softness to it. This lovely make-up is a bianca F. skin, the Bloom make-up is feminine and pretty, and with the pale gown and white hair, really has a lot of impact. Eyes are [Detour]'s Delta Eyes in Hazel.

[Review] Seldom Blue Serenity Gown

Limited Time Freebie at Seldom Blue!

I am not a review blogger by intention, I don't want to feel obligated to review items, I don't ask for freebies, and I don't want to ever accept items and give the impression that I will blog something that is dropped on me. I have accepted some items as gifts from friends, and I wear them if I think I would have likely purchased them anyways, but that is pretty much the extent of my relationship to reviewing items. I am not a critic, I do not feel I have the skill or fashion knowledge to do so. This morning, as I was logging on, I was clicking through notices and accepting note cards, etc, as I normally do, and realized that someone had dropped a gown on me. I was not familiar with the name, but noticed a flashing IM box from IndigoBlue Dagostino, with a note saying that she wanted me to have a look.

Normally, I put these items in a separate folder to look at as time permits, but as I was getting dressed today, I thought, lets take a peek and see what this gown looks like. I was impressed to say the least. This is the Serenity Gown in Cream from a shop called Seldom Blue, one I had never heard of. I loved that there were three options for the top of the dress, a silky strapless, a lace strap, or a modesty lace jacket option (all show below). The skirt is in two parts, with a lovely sheer chiffon layer over top of the base that moves so nicely and is a lovely full ballgown shape. I also love the Ivory colour of the gown, very pretty, not flashy or over the top, really just a lovely neutral shade. I decided to blog it then and there, and set off to the shop to see how much this item might cost me had I bought it. I was shocked to see that it is a Limited Time Freebie at Seldom Blue, and normally would cost a very reasonable $475LaLas.

To me it had a lovely Classy Retro feel, so I paired it with a sweet pair of gloves from bossa nova, this amazing Juliana hair from ETD, and a pair of simple Vanilla Helia Pumps from =DeLa*=. I was glad to have another reason to wear this lovely pair of Kailena Earrings and Necklace from Muse, sold separately, I think Muse has really set the bar for fine fashionable jewelry in-world. I am also wearing one of my new favorite skins, a review copy from biancaF., and Love Lashes from Detour. I decided to give some lovely eyes from BBBM a try, and love this pair of Watery Eyes in Mud Shades, this one is called Splatter.

I have no idea how long this amazing free gown will be available at Seldom Blue, but I urge you to rush in and grab one, and then check out the rest of the goodies that IndigoBlue Dagostino has to offer!
