Golden Ruched Ruffles

The day that Myllie Writer released her newest creation for *PERSONA*, this fabulous Debutant Dress, I ran into her while she was setting out the vendors on Retrology. Needless to say I was smitten, the colour choices were brilliant, and I went for the Gold like only an Olympian could. Myllie dropped this sweet minidress on me, and I couldn't wait to slip into it. I love the ruffle at mid-thigh level, really sweet and flirty. The ruched detail down the front is really well done, and I love the appearance of a zipper in the back of the dress. Little details like that make *PERSONA* a favorite for me.

I decided to go for an equally sweet shoe, this pair of Yellow Mary Squares Shoes from .:Periquita are an almost perfect match. I have these in a fatpack, and they are just so well done, I wear them all the time, the colour options are great. The turquoise buttons on the shoes let me bring in some more turquoise in my accessories. This great almost tribal Necklace and Bracelet set from *::UM::*, which is located close to Mirrors & Mirai Style in Takaraduka. I love this Wood + Turquoise Set is really funky, and I think adds some edge to the sweet factor in this look. I threw on some great Bead Hoop Earrings from /artilleri/, which are scripted to change colour with a click. They are endlessly useful. The bag again brings in the turquoise accent, a sweet Beaded Purse from Pampered Princess.



This yuruyuru odango hair has been on my list of "To Get" for a long time, so when I finally made it to *SHOP SEU* last week, I was sure to snap it up. It is really cute, and such a memorable style, very girly. Skin is from [RockBerry], another great make-up, and I love the Dark Brows version of these skins. Bedroom Lashes are from Cake, and Delta Eyes in Hazel are from [Detour].

Nobody Puts Baby In A Corner!

OK, I will admit it if you will admit it, we all love Dirty Dancing. How many times have we watched Baby carry a watermelon, Penny cry in hotel kitchen, the creepy nephew of the hotel owner try to get his hands on Baby, or Johnny and Baby practicing the lift in the lake. And yes, we all get chills when Johnny walks up to the table and says, "Nobody Puts Baby In A Corner!". And then... They do the Lift! This new ~~Ivalde~~ Hulda Outfit in Red reminds me of one of the outfits that Baby wore in the movie The cute little shorts with the flower applique on the pockets, the peasant like tunic that flows around the body, very summer in the Poconos circa 1958. Neferia Abel uses sculptie parts so well, and this outfit is no exception. It comes in several sweet colour combinations, but I loved this version with the red shorts particularly.

I was sent a review pack of Jewelry from Bliensen + MaiTail, and it included this absolutely brilliant Skulls ‘n Flowers Necklace and Bracelet Set. I love when Jewelry look sweet and girly from far away, but when you look close it has a little something much more sinister going on, the combination of pearls and flowers, and the tiny skulls just works. Can't wait to show you more of the Bliensen + MaiTail collection. I pulled on one of the ~*Fresh Baked Goods*~ Sculpted Sugar Gem Bangles in Silver on the other arm, and set the gem colour to Ruby. The shoes are a sweet pair of Periquita SueShoo Sandals in White that I picked up at the Footwear Expo this week, really cute and I love the sexy heel. Also wearing the Drifting Sands Tunnel Multi Set Earrings, really a great mixed set of piercings. Gimcrack Ring by Caroline's.



This hair is NEW TO ME *Shop Seu* Pompadour Hair, really so realistic looking with it loose wave pony tail and the lifted back-combed section on top. But what really makes it amazing is that it is textured to look like pulled back strands on either side of the face and just a hint of parted hair on either side of the lifted section. Really looks so real, and required only a little position adjustment. Skin is Canimal's Essence of Pinup Make-up. Lashes are Cake's Bedroom Lashes, and Eyes are favorites from Miriel.
