Where Have You Been

I finally got to spend some quality time with my best friend Phedre, and of course we went shopping. We were both excited about the new releases from Maitreya. They've come out with new hair, bags, pants, shirts and dresses. It's a great start for their summer collection. 

Maitreya has released new MESH hair, and it was totally worth the wait!!!!!!! Both Phe and I picked it up. It comes with a hud so you can change the colour of the hat and the string colours. 

We ended up exploring this amazing sim called Selidor. It's truly unique, and a great location for pictures. There are many different areas from a little town, a temple and even a pirate cove. I'll def be spending more time there, soon. 

I paired up the new hair with the new dress from Maitreya. It comes in two different patterns, the flowery one I'm wearing and a striped one. It's mesh, of course and comes in standard sizing. It's great for your summer collection. 

I'm also very excited that Redgrave has come out with a new shoe. I love this strappy sandal. I ended up buying the fatpack in order to get all the different colour options. 

Phedre grabbed the newest summer release from MONS. This dress is really cute, and it's love cut in the back. I also really love the length of it. She teamed it up with the new slink sandals and it's a great look. 

I am really looking forward to seeing what else summer trends have in store!!!

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?!

Week One - Champagne

Unfortunately I wasn't involved in last year's 52 weeks of colour. However, I did follow through many of my favourite bloggers. I've decided to take part in it this year since I often find it difficult to follow through with things.

If you've never heard of the 52 Weeks of Color Challenge then you need to Luna Jubilee's blog. You'll be able to find more information on the challenge.

This week's colour was Champagne. :) I immediately thought of the Maitreya shirt. I paired it with some tights and a great pair of mesh boots featured at the last FLF. I'm also still wearing the new skin Sophia from Mamboo Chic. I can't take it off! :)

I really wanted to do an in world shot, at least something with a better background. But, my computer wasn't having it. I kept crashing. So, for this post I'll have to settle for the outfit layout. At least I've gotten my first week under my belt ;)

Slipping into Suede

Izzie's just released a brand new version of her blazer. It now comes in suede and like the original it is a MUST HAVE. When I first found these blazers on marketplace I made the mistake of buying just one. Now that the new suede ones are out, I won't make that mistake again. I highly suggest buying the fat pack because you won't regret it. I decided to put together three different looks to show off only a few of the possibilities with these blazers.

The first look I put together used a lot of Izzie's new releases. They go so perfectly together. I really love the new clutches and gloves. They great for a sexy fierce look. I'm also showing off the new necklace from Dark Mouse for this week's Project Themeory.

The second look was also very dressy. I picked up this amazing dress as part of the Black Friday sale at MichaMi. I plan to show this dress of again. I just love the curve and the zipper in the back. I paired it with Izzie's Blazer in brown and the BRAND new shoes from Kalnins called Audrey. Audrey comes with a simple hud so the color options are endless. These shoes are also featured in blue for this session of The Dressing Room Blue.

Leaves are slowly falling

I've finally gotten Kaelyn Alecto to be a guest on my blog. We were both ubber excited when we saw the new release from Shag - Falling Slowly. We were gushing about the style and the length and the texturing. We loved it so much we decided to wear it for this post.

If I haven't said it before I love Autumn. It's my favourite season. I love watching the leaves change colour and the weather getting chilly. When you live in a city you really begin to miss fall colours. I notice that on the feeds more and more people are starting to bring out the fall colours. I find myself doing the same thing. I just can't help it ;)

I really liked Kae's outfit. She wore this very drapey top and jean duo from Connors. It's perfect for this season.

Look at those SHOES! I mean c'mon... they're awesome. They're from a new (to me) store called "Leverocci". I had never been there until my friend told me I should check it out. Boy, was she right! I loved everything. I'll be heading back for more!!! Also, equally loving this new jacket from mon tissu.

Mixing With A New Trend

Recently I came across a few of the bloggers that I follow, and noticed they were blogging this hair from Maitreya.  I've always wanted to see male hair from this designer, but no such luck at this point.  The one thing I do like about this hair tho, is the ability to use it as a unisex style.  

One thing I can never stop buying on second life is Jeans. I recently visited Muism and found they had a a few new styles of  Jeans available.  I really do like the texture that was put into all of them.

Last thing I want to mention are these new sneakers from Hoorenbeek.  I am a true believer in white shoes or sneakers on my feet. That also stems into my real life, for some reason all other colors look off. The Streeterville line has a new style, that I haven't really seen on second life.

Candy White Waterfalls

Brand new release from Hucci called Waterfall Bikini. It's sooooooooooooo sexy! I saw the promo pictures and I was like whoa... haha. I think they're perfect for being a little bit more flashy at the beach. They're def an eye catcher.

I really love the gold ringed collar and the way the top drapes. I'm only showing two colours in this post, but there are tons more to see at Hucci! They come in 13 different colours including a zebra print and few colour fades. Make sure you go to the left when you entered the store and walk pass the lingerie section. They're tucked away in the corner of the store.

Equally impressed with one of the latest releases from "Fab-U-Lous" called Rebecca. Paired with skin from Glam Affair it's a showstoppa!

Isabelle & Sabrina

CandyDoll has been my "go to" skin lately. I haven't been able to take off Lilly so naturally I was ubber excited to see two skins being featured at Culture Shock. Sabrina and Isabelle are stunning and super cute.

Sabrina is a very soft looking skin. I really liked how it looked in pale. I added a beauty mark from L.Fauna to compliment it. I especially love the eye liner.

Isabelle has super dark eyeshadow. I really love it. Both skins come with four different breast options:
