You're my triumph

It's been a while since I've worn a Lara Hurley skin, but today I slipped it on and I fell in love all over again. I paired it up with the brand new release from Lelutka. Lelutka has done two very very long hair releases and I love 'em. I'm wearing Lively in this picture. 

I also wanted to show off the brand new release from N-Core called Triumph. I teamed up with my bestie Kaelyn Alecto to show off our beautiful shoes. Like I always say... fatpack is necessary. I never get enough of all the little options N-core offers. These shoes are so versatile. 

Lovin' the round of C88 (which has moved to its own sim). Tons of stuff available a def must see. I picked up this blazer from HOF and I will be going back for a few more colors. The necklace is also a C88 grab!

Vintage Fair 2012 - Part Two

Featuring some more items from this year's Vintage Fair. I thought I'd go all out and try to dress up Flapper Style. I'm showing off another amazing dress from BCC and the second hairstyle from Wasabi Pills.

I'm also wearing Izzie's Elena skin. This skin is the brand new release and I'm loving it. Make sure you head down to Izzie's mainstore to try the demo.

My 100th with Mia

I am celebrating my 100th post today!!!!!

Now, why is my 100th post so important to me? Because it shows... commitment. lol. Plain and simple. I have the attention span of a gold fish. I have the best intentions when I set out to blog, but I always seem to get side tracked. This post took me about.... no, never mind, not going to say. lol. Having completed 100 posts shows me that my passion for fashion overweighs my flighty nature. (sometimes). Yah me!

I logged today with the intentions of blogging but I didn't know where to start as I wanted my 100th to be special. The "perfect" came with the new release of Lara Hurley's "Mia" skin.

Out today, Mia comes in 5 different skin tone and ten different and beautiful makeup options. If you buy a fat pack (and really... why wouldn't you?) you get 11 skins, 10 lipsticks available in tattoo layers and 9 makeup tattoo layers! It also comes with a lighter eyebrow tattoo and a breast enhancer.

I was really excited as I flicked through all the makeups. They're so smouldering and sexy. And makeup is always fun to play with. Anyone who knows me in SL, knows that I spend most of my time walking around in Hurley skins. It's such a great skin and because of all the options it feels new every time I wear it.

Don't even get me started on all the MESH I'm wearing. I was on mesh overload today. I finally gave in and downloaded the newest viewer so I could enjoy all these beautiful clothes. Like me, if you're hesitant to try a new mesh capable viewer, don't be! I waited so long, too stubborn to give up Phoenix (p.s newest version is mesh capable). I wish I'd done it sooner because mesh clothing is a whole new world - who knew?!

But, I really want to go!!!

I REALLY wanna go to the Shape Expo, but I REALLY wanna go to Thailand more. If an effort to save funds for my RL trip I've cut my shopping budget in half. If I go to the Expo I know I'll spend too much money. And well, the shoe fair is soooooooo close. It's complete torture having to pick between two amazing events. So, all my lovely readers. Please go to the Expo for me. :) I've been reading so many posts about all the great stuff. It's a must visit.

So, to cheer myself up I hung out on the "Bora Bora Isles" sim for a while. It's such a lovely place. I put together this look and I am quite attached to it. I'm sporting the pants from "Indie Rose" again because they're so functional and you can easily dress them up or down. They were def a great purchase!! The top was a great grab at Culture Shock.

The jewelry is all from "Dark Mouse"!! I love every single piece. It's so crafty! I love how the necklace brings together three different parts. I'm especially a fan of the earrings. I love decorative studs! The shoes are BRAND NEW and from a new store called "Cracked Mirror". CM official opening date is Saturday, May 14th! Make sure you take a look at all the amazing stuff they have to offer! :)

The Return of Vanity Circus

I first started blogging on my own blog in late 2009. I had a passion for shopping and wanted to make myself feel better about spending copious amounts on digital fashion. Close to a year later I found myself too busy in RL to keep up with things in SL. So, I deleted my blog.

I was asked by my close friend Lorellai Kondor to be a guest blogger on her site. I couldn't have been more honoured by the invitation as she was and still is one of my favourite bloggers.

However, now I'm able to balance my time. So for the time being I'm setting out to blog on my own again. I will continue to guest blog for Lorellai as well. I look forward to sharing my stylings with you and hearing your opinions!! :) <3 Temp
