Ain’t no Shoe Pony
So last night Whimsy and I were out and about doing our thing, when we decided that we were going to pick one store, and use the same item in a post. We got so excited that we even went to the store and ran around falling in love with everything all over again. Whimsy fell in love with the displays in the store, and they were/are adorable, but I was so overly impressed by the whole new and improved build – as I had not yet seen it, and it is lovely.
So we ran home and jumped on our VR Studios and decided on the Mete as our shared item from Nyte n Day, I have shown it before as it’s own set, but today decided to take the main piece which is the beautiful tube top and work it in with some other Nyte n Day as well as designs from others. Nyte n Day has an incredible assortment of versatile separates, as well as complete sets, all at incredibly affordable prices. So mixing and matching is a breeze. Now during all of this of course Whimsy crashed hard core, and so much so that she didn’t return, I stood and waited, posing with the DARE poses of awesome but no Whimsy *pouts.
Finally she came back today, and of course while I was head down bum up in Group invites for Hair Fair, she took her pics, and now we are writing at the same time. I am yet to see hers, but know it will be full of win as usual. You can see her post, if you haven’t already, over at Virtually Dressed. The hair I am wearing is Hepburn a new style by LeLutka, how cute is it, such an adorable little ponytail, almost Gidget like as well, the ribbon tie is colour change on click, and a lovely natural look.
The Shoe Fair is still going strong, and another fabulous release at the fair are the Mieke boots by SLink. These riding boots are amazing, the leather work and just overall style is perfect for those that love equestrian pursuits. I know that Justice a good friend has been looking for a true riding boot for a long time, so she will be stoked I am sure. Make sure you gallop on over to shoe fair 🙂

Got nothing on us
I went to a party to wrap up the Summer Festival at Tableau with Whimsy tonight. The whole Tableau team were there, giggling up a storm on voice. The winner of their store for 30days contest was Radio Signals who is an incredible content creator as well as RL artist. So I am so glad she won. I recently bought some of her art work to hang at home, and it looks fab. If you haven’t been by her gallery next door to Scribble, you should definitely check it out.
I was feeling so festive after the do, that I just felt all bubbly and coloured hair worthy. It is funny how for granted we take the coloured hair packs being available in some stores, what if one day they weren’t there? I know that tips come and go, but sometimes and more often than would be considered normal, you just need coloured hair. Exile has such lovely candy floss like colours, that I decided to go with both in the Candace style. Also to add a bit of flavor to the Jeans and tank from Indyra Originals. These jeans are standout fab with the detailing on the waistband.
The next two pics feature dresses by Vesna, the first one has that large scoop and as soon as I put it on I wanted to fill it, and knew exactly how. Thanks to incredible options, and both items having all layers available, I was able to wear the shirt and tie only from a dress from Fri.day, and create a new look. A mini mobstress look, what with the Fedora hat/hair also from Fri.day. The burnt orange just got some killer bling from Royal Blue and I am ready for a night of dancing. But as I already did that tonight, on with the next one lol.
The new hairstyles from Amacci are incredibly soft and fluttery, framing the face beautifully. How Carina made these styles is just incredible, as most of the hair is a small group of strands all placed strategically to form a style. Lots of prim work in these styles so don’t be wearing them to any high lag events, but don’t hesitate in buying them all because they are just gorgeous. The last two looks had me a bit rock and roll tonight, which is a total contrast to earlier this evening when I was all frocked up.
The skin I am wearing is another New skin from YS & YS and will be released at Fashion Fest. Marilu comes in a neutral tone like the one I am wearing in these pics, as well as a pale I will show at a later date. There are a lovely range of make ups, as well as numerous options. Two hair bases, and cleavage options as well. So each one has 8 options as well as a bun hair attachment if you want to go with the hair base extra tight look, and it is so much fun to cruise around that way sometimes.

Slick and Slide
After the third crash I had to come back home, it was fun while it lasted though. Callie Cline just finished her latest build, and an impromptu party occured, a good old fashioned barn raising I think you would call it. I had to come home though and type this up, lots to do, lots to do.
I was checking out What’s New SL as I do, and realised that Izzie’s had a release, I ran over to get me some of the fab new items, and grabbed probably an oldie or two while I was at it. The frill suit is so win, and comes in many colours, I went with the black and put it on immediately, swanning about and realised I better jump on my VR Posestand or I will end up wearing it and then forgetting to blog it at a later date.
Now while this is just gorgeous I am a bit weepy to the fact that it was done all in one. As in the shirt/undershirt layers are the top white of the shirt as well as the top of the shorts, rather than making the high waist on a jacket layer separate. Even though I do love as is, I really wish it had been done the other way, so that I would be able to mix and match the bottoms with other items, and the top also with other things, even items from Izzie’s own range of wonderful things.
Note to Designers, don’t flatten and merge separate pieces of clothing, it makes the fashionable cry. Maybe I can find some other highwaisted pants that go high enough to wear with the top of the top and frill, so cute.
The hair I am wearing I have to thank Desiree for from http://acquisitive.wordpress.com
She left a comment on my blog yesterday, and I went snooping on her blog and fell for many things, but mostly this hair, so Yay, thanky Desiree ♥
Now onto things I keep wearing and forgetting to blog, this was a gift from my favourite Xstreet shopper Mel, lol seriously he is getting so good at finding me treats I just die for. The other week he bought me this stunning new corset set, and to my shock it is made by J’s , the same J’s that gives us our fabulous footwear.
Not only is the texturing divine, but the cups to the corset are actually sculpted, and so well done with scripts and a hud to resize exactly how needed. If J’s goes into clothing it is going to be amazing to see. You get the stockings and garters, corset and panties as well as full length gloves. I have been wearing the corset with pants and it is just beautiful to wear, if you click on the sculpted breast covering you get the option to choose lace or no lace in the cups category.
I decided that if I was going to show it in its full lingerie look, I was going to do so old school style and be a bunny. With ears and whiskers from Cobrahive that I really think are just too adorable.
Izzie’s again for some bargains, the lace tops are a steal and everything from there can be found on Xstreet if you aren’t in the mood to tp. Well worth a visit to the store though. These tops come in lots of colours and in two different options, I am wearing them with the tube skirts from Goth1c0 which are slung to the side and lowrise. Again a bit weepy that the top and skirts don’t give all layers options, but that I guess is just us getting used to that becoming the norm lately.
Taking more time to spin the UnBra skin Mayara around, the skin comes with four cleavage options and such dramatic make ups. There are pics included that let you know the rgb values of the skins so that you can tint shoes or gloves for nails with ease. Make sure you DemoDemoDemo.
**As I say to many when we have this debate though. You should never want someone to put your items aside to wear something else, just because you didn’t provide all layers.
It sucks to have to make them, and it is a lot of work – believe me I have done my fair share of making thousands of layers options over the years -Â but in the long run customers appreciate it, and people will wear them more often. There are items that I always go to as back up, knowing that what I want to finish a look will be there on all pieces I may need, and I am sure I am not the only one.
EDIT and IMPORTANT Fabulousness : Since this post went to print (lol) Izzie of Izzie’s has redone the Frill Set to now include the seperate layers and ALL layers, so that you can mix and match to your hearts content, HOW AWESOME IS THAT ! especially since the post only published a few hours ago… Izzie Button you get todays AWESOME DESIGNER Award – which is invisible but still heartfelt.

* have you ever wondered why that last mouthful is too much?

Fierce
I had some great news today regarding Hair Fair.
Sharing the hair stage today with IA Ivanka Akina and Exile, all such gorgeous wigs, but need to point out that the one with the two tone look does not come that way. I purchased the textures that many use now, and carefully made a copy first and then used both the solid and alpha options on the front bangs, luckily I made a copy first because the first time I got carried away and ruined some, but if you stick to the pieces that do not say multiple in the edit window you will be fine.
Three pics of punkish but girly still style looks. The first lot are tshirts and shorts by IA, and because they come on all layers they are versatile to mix and match, the shorts are just darling. The tshirts are a lot of fun too, there are more than the four shown, but my fav out of those would have to be the candy cane ribcage.
The second pic has some amazing dresses by DeeTalez, these leather dresses have that horror movie lab coat look going on, and they honestly scare the hell out of me, but so hot all at the same time. I toned down the look a little with the hair choice, but seriously go with some straight bangs and severe heels and you could turn many into monsters.
A while back 5th & Oxford did a Rebel Rebel release, and I have used pieces from it in the past, but more so today. The denim skirts come with belt and skirt attached or seperate, some great tanks that are a bit more glitz and would work with many going out looks, and the interweaving of some older MichaMi pieces brought it all together for me, I love that jacket, it is so pretty.
Stellar would be another fabulous store for punkish girly looks, but this time I went with their latest swimwear…that lucky for you two colours in a different pattern are todays Stellar Hump day special , so you get them at a bargain price. These ones are retro lovely, and the colours they come in are beautiful, the two bandana prints available today are blue and red, but I wanted you to see the retro versions as well.
The shoes I am wearing with them worked so well also, because just like when playing golf, some women wear heels poolside. The YS & YS shoes are so sexy, and they come in two different ranges of colours and adornments, which I think are just so this coming summer looks. They have all the usual YS HUD options, and they also come in a viewer 2 option. If you hurry to The Dressing Room there is actually a pair in white there for only 75L, so grab those because that is a steal.
With all these looks I am wearing the NEW Martina skin by LAQ. This skin has a beautiful face, much stronger in character I think than previous. I love the thicker brow that seems to be fairly obvious in this skin, with the usual tones and hair base option, sensational body and a great range of make ups, ten in all. Some of them more subtle than others, but a lovely range none the less.
When looking at skins it is really important as I have said in the past to DEMO them, not only in the store, but at home using your own lighting, the other thing is that it is really important to get naked to do so. Now this may not be for the reasons you think.
I have been witness to people disapointment with skins and blemishes over the years, and it was only because of Mel teaching me did I come to understand that sometimes those marks are not on the skin at all. Sometimes residue from clothing can look to be skin blemishes, and be no where near the actual line of the clothing, so it goes unrecognised as such.
So please make sure that if you do see something a little off on a skin, that you are in fact naked first and rebake as much as possible until you judge it on skin alone, it may just be something you are wearing stopping you from purchasing something you really like.
The poses in the last pic are latest prop poses by Glitterati, you wear the correct numbered beach ball, and the corresponding pose works with it, so cute, and the ball is click to change texture.

Share your heart – Mel, Fiachra, Ashia, Justice, Newdoll, Sofia, Whimsy and Gary
I am blessed every day, I have met the most amazing people through Second Life, some may not be as close to me as others but everyone of them holds a part of my heart. The ones that I spend most days with you all know of by name by now I am sure, I mention all of them so regularly that I hope you have come to realise already what they mean to me.
This post didn’t start out to be a YAY my Friends ROCK! post, but as I was uploading and looking over the pictures that I did tonight, I realised how much influence they have over my everyday, and especially my blogging. For a start they are all so incredibly talented, Mel with his creations and just overall knowledge on everything, he is a walking wiki, he is my heart and every day I get to spend time with him is magical even if he did call me screwby doo today – I have a random scooby laugh, but I swear he was saying I was nuts :P.
Fiachra and his beautiful jewelry, he has always been an incredible part of SL I don’t think I would have gotten through so many big changes without him… and his mind, which is very similar to Mels, so between the both of them I feel like a pinball at times; donking from one side to the other and TILT!
Ashia and Justice and their different way of looking at Second Life, their artistic passions that can range from the flowery and fluttery to the dark and bloody. I think everyone just thinks I don’t like that kind of dark art, it really isn’t that, it is that I cannot handle blood and a friend in the same pic, it breaks my heart. Ashia makes cusswords sound sexy and she has this way of picking you up and dusting you off and pushing you back into battle that is just so motherly she is so amazing and strong. Justice makes me laugh just thinking of her laughing, because when she does let herself stop working for long enough to have fun, she can power a small country with her chuckle. No one can rock out short hair like her, and her absolute bravado is just awesome.
Newdolly is that true friend that can go awol for a month or two, but is always there to count on. She does her own thing, has her own passions and when she shares she shares everything, you do not get only parts of Newdoll but all of her, and anyone who doesn’t see what a gift that is can’t be helped. Her art is fabulous and she can takes the erotic to a whole new level.
Sofia has such talent rolled into such an adorable package but so feisty. She knows how to take charge and get things done, and will help her true friends as much as she can, whether it be advice or skills she has, and she has the skills for sure. I adore spending time with her, as I do all my friends, she has a wit that is so dry she can send redbull flying out your nose at least twice a day.
Whimsy and Gary, such an adorable couple, you can practically set your watch by Gary, and I think Whimsy does. She spends all day doing her things she needs to do, and then when he logs on everything stops and being with each other is the theme. Things as simple as shopping or playing Greedy Greedy just become a little nicer when spent doing them with those two. Whimsy has talent she hasn’t even uncovered herself, but I see it every single day, just a little more shows itself and those close to her know and encourage it.
That is what friends do, that is what they do for me every single day. So when I finished taking these pics, and was looking them over after upload I realised that they are a bit of everyone of those people. They give me strength to do more, learn more, experience more…when I don’t blog for a few days it is because they will ALWAYS come first… I really do see their influence in what I do, I want them to know that. It is because of them that I want to be better in everything, and in reverse I am overjoyed with their successes that I want to believe they gain something from mine too, and to me just making a pretty picture and being so happy to have learned a new trick in PS or somewhere is a success.
So thank you to all of them, for holding my heart and sometimes filling it so full I cannot breathe. The others not mentioned know who they are, they know I love them dearly, because I tell them every time we talk.
The clothing in these pictures is all by Baiastice from the new couture collect recently released, such beautiful colours and very feminine, whether formal or warrior it all shines. I am using the new Amacci poses that have been released for Pose Fair, there is a new AO which some of them are from, and a new pose pack…the AO is called Posh and it is lovely to wear.
I had fun shooting these pics, going from place to place. Some places I had to use my VR Studio Mobile Library and some I could actually rez at, the wheat field let me rez it even said I could in the covenant, how cool was that.

Rising
Clothing Fair 2010 is approaching fast, 13th of March to be exact. One of the bigger events of the year with the donations going to RFL as they do every year, this is the 4th year and they are getting bigger and better with each one. The landing point this year is amazing, it was like arriving at the Olympics.
One of the stores taking part this year is Phoenix Rising. The gown I am wearing is a sparkly strapless combination that just works beautifully. The texture on the skirt is like falling light beams, and the bodice is gorgeous.
I decided that with that expanse of neckline, I didn’t want to go with the more traditional formal jewelry. But opted instead for some of the new Recluse collars from Plastik, these come in various styles and colour/print blends and are just lovely…you know I love posture collars, so these will definitely get featured again in the other variations.
The second outfit comprises of the top of one of the newer dresses from Phoenix Rising, I decided that the jeans and top looked so cute together that I went that route for now. it also gave me another chance to wear the waist belt from cobrahive, this one actually more of a high waist belt.
New hair from two stores, the first is Vanna a style from Pazazz, the textures are that tight curl look, and as an updo it is really nice. The second is really new from Exile, and I am so loving the pixie like bangs, very vintage and so hot. I pray that Kavar does a lot more styles with this bang look, because the possibilities are just OMG.
What I learned today :
Dot Lane plans on moving on;
I am sad now, but I understand why.
Dot Lane Girl Reporter:
I want to write something special, I want to express how much someone like Dot Lane can mean to people that see her for what she is. See her use humor as a way of protecting herself, a woman that even though pint sized could fill ten thousand servers with her charm and charisma. A woman that reached into my heart all the way down here, and has now filled it with heartache that I didn’t get to tell her every day how incredible she is. But I know that she doesn’t need me too, that she knows I adore her so much, and that she would think me silly sitting here typing in tears just because she isn’t going to log in her avatar anymore.I am sad that she will be in plurk and I can’t spend lots of time there, but I do know she is happy, and that she is finding new adventures with her life. It is funny because I can just hear her in SL , and imagine her in her safari shorts and jacket from CKS about to take on the new world she has planned for herself. I imagine each day her sitting by lamplight writing down her memoirs and experiences with the wildlife she encounters. One day maybe I will come across some writing that will be by someone not named Dot and I will just know it is her, that no one else in the whole world could ever be the same, write the same, or have the same outlook on life…she is outstanding.

Romper Domper Doo
Sales are always fun, and even better when you have been meaning to go over and get your fix for ages and haven’t had a chance. The other things that are too much fun, are new AO’s . The other day I got one, and was attending a meeting and just giggling myself silly, while I bent and stretched and seriously exhausted my avatar and others watching me.
The new AO is one of two recently released by Body Language. Romp is a definite no standing still styled AO. It has so much movement, and most of it is fitness like in nature. What better way to show off the new shorts by Boom I thought, so that was my first play today…also handy that I got fab new visors from Cobrahive this week. They are the store having a huge 50% off sale at the moment, and if you haven’t indulged you need to. Unisexy content for the win, so you can take a group of friends over and have a shopping party.
Also new and a definite throwback to the 80’s are the sneakers by Anexx, these are reebokesque for sure. Everything about them is fun, the fringe on the sides, the beaded ends to the hang down parts, and the three different options, plain, paisley or rose print on the sides to these adorable hightops.
Even MORE 80’s are the Denim Boots also by Anezz, wow talk about flashbacks, these were so popular back then. One of my best had a pair a bit lower and looser than these, and the funniest part about the jeans like boots was the pocket replica portion actually worked as a pocket, so storing your ID and such for the night was totally taken care of.
The Riddle dress and coat combos are not only stylin for colder days, and yeah down here we are moving into that territory, but the coat itself is a separate wearable that will come in handy for so many different looks. Riddle does such lovely dresses that you could probably interchange the coat with other styles such as a big favourite their argyle ones.
The Cozy Scarves are just too divine. Buttoned or unbuttoned this accessory is fantastic. You could ad so much to an item with this, totally changing the overall look of a garment. I decided to wear them with the gorgeous Rhia dresses that for me are so original Star Trek looking.
The style is simple and just the right type of contrast, with Milla taking into consideration not only all layers , but sizes as well, with the premade prims portions in size options as well as mod. Pairing them up with her Pia leggings, aren’t the cutouts just adorable, I really hope she didn’t do those cutouts one box at a time, because we need her eyes to stay clear and focused for lots more beautiful releases to come.
I stress so much about how long it can take me to get to a release, but sometimes it is a bonus that I did, with the buttoned look of the scarves, and the two tone look of the dresses working so well with the Pursay boots buttoned version by Perse. I cheated a bit here though and went with the Sasy Chic shoes in the noir for the second look, because I could and I did .
I had to wear the eyewrap for this look first off, because wasn’t there always some sinister chick in Star Trek that appeared a goody and then wasn’t, and they for some reason are always missing eyes, or a hand or something peculiar like that – or maybe I am just mixing all my baddies together lol – regardless it is another item from Cobrahive that is just fab.
The Faded tunics by Doppelganger have that at first male oversized shirt look to them, and honestly when is that ever a bad thing. I was watching Greek the other night and apparently it’s a big turn on for men to see women in their stuff – ok it was more about dress shirts but shhhh – what I really liked was that all the colours went so well with the snowdrift boots by Kalnins. Even though I very very much would love more colour options in these boots, the ones preset into the hud worked so well for these.
Adding the big waist belts to cinch the look together, I am all ready for a day or night out with my snuggled footsies.
All of the hair I am wearing for this post is by HCT, I was a bit upset in convo the other day to hear that someone thought that Babyboo hadn’t been making hair. She has been in and out of SL of late, but she does as much as she can when she is here, and regardless of new or old her styles are still so lovely.
Also lovely are the Charlotte skins by Dernier Cri, the make up range is fun and interestingly named, and I just love the body detailing, so when looking all fit for the shorts they were an easy choice.
* RIP Corey Haim thank you for making my 80’s crush on you something special. Your movies were amazing, and Lost Boys is not even the first that comes to mind. *

blog – Hippie Dippie Shake
Mmmmmm Fruit. That would have to be the one awesome thing about sweltering hot summers, down here the fruit is fabulous. One of my favourite things is the fruitflo machine. They take frozen yoghurt – or icecream – and frozen fruit, such as mangoes and passionfruit and berries, and throw them all into this big drill bit looking machine, and push down to make a swirly fresh fruit medley iced treat.
YUM!, seeing as it is 5am-ish I will have to make do with the fruit alternative that is Berries Inc. Their latest release Mel shirt had me running right over, and then back again later last night. The styles in the store so far are separates and really well made. I not only really like the clothing, but also the actual showroom of a store, and the vendors. A lot of effort has been put in to featuring her goods in a professional and realistic store manner.
I really love that the Mel shirt has buttons on both sides of the opening, as they are more like little decorations than anything practical, because there isn’t a chance on earth that I would ever get that shirt closed. Especially not with the help of Luck Inc.
Those that know Gala Skins know that one of the things I have always loved is the natural fall of the breasts, but it took CK to show us that sometimes a lift or a squidgy chicken tender looking attachment – RL analogy – is a necessity, and created the Enhancers for Gala skins in all tones. So now by just wearing the undershirt layer you can definitely add to your decolletage.
The very mini denim skirts and the gorgeous studded cozy tops are all from Berries Inc, such lovely items, and really well priced. I can see big things coming from this designer, as she is already expanding her skill set by taking classes.
The store that makes those awesome sockystockingleggymathingies on the left had me at hello, I right click bought like a demon. So much fun, with vibrant colours and a fun quirkiness to them.
Did everyone go OMG OMG OMG OMG when they saw Surf Couture’s new hair release, seriously not only did we get the bargain of the century with three of them being 50L each, but they are so gorgeous I had to buy packs of the others as well. The style is so hippie chic, but depending on outfit can take on a whole new look, especially with the help of the texture change hemp band and ribbon tie.
I have always had a thing for dimples, mind you there was this one moment in history when I told a cute guy I loved his, and he told me they were lazy cheek muscles – rolls eyes , seriously what a butthead – I didn’t want to marry them, I was just giving the ego maniac a compliment. So because of that jerk for about 18 minutes I didn’t like dimples much, then I got over it.
Sunny is the latest dimpled delight from Gala, and the soft make ups are as usual just lovely for this not so innocent face. You will be wanting to get up to all sorts of mischief in Sunny, I can see it now…I actually went to school with a girl called Sunny and she was a handful and a half…Queenslanders usually are :P. The worst or in your case best thing is that with those dimples you will get away with it lol.
I am wearing 50L friday shoes by SLink, these are so 80’s tacular, that we spoke about her doing the kitten heel slingbacks with the bow at the toe next, fingers crossed.
New Poses by Diesel Works called Piper *strikes a pose* cute aren’t they? there are more to be seen at the store, and in posts to come I am sure. But don’t wait for me, get on over and try them and everything else for yourself.
Have a bonza weekend, and if someone compliments you, be gracious, because you never know when that person will get a blog and out you as a wanker.

Rocker Chic
As I said earlier, I already had taken a pic that I wanted to post on, but got carried away with the vintage love. Earlier than the Ingenue spree Whimsy , Gary, Justice and I hit up some other stores. I ended up getting my rock chick on , and it was all tude from there.
I ended up combining what is a sexy Glitter Shirt mini dress, with an incredible glittery sheen to it, over some hardcrash leggings, both are items from Aoharu as that is where we ended up, Whimsy wanting Gary to get a matching coat to one of hers, and us realising that Justice hadn’t shopped there enough in the past.
The cut and sliced leggings instantly made me think of the Buckle wedge boots from Anexx , these ankle boots are just fab, the style and shape is wonderful and the open fronts just make them a fabulous addition to the look, they have prim feet/toes so you will have to play with the colouring, but they have made it easier… not only giving you preset colours, but now also an editable tint ball, to make it much better.
Adding some gloves from 5th and Oxford, and some Jewelry from DeLa, with the addition of a New hairstyle from Magika, named Willow all I needed was a tour bus and I would be well on my way to rocker stardom. The Mia Doll skin from Idiosyncrasy is definitely versatile, and the pale complexion is perfect for those that spend all of their time asleep during the day, and howl at the moon all night.
The poses I am using in these pics are from the Bytch AO from Red Queen, their Ao’s are fantastic to slow animations on and shoot to your hearts content.

Pip Pip old pal
So today I woke up and checked my emails as I was logging in. There was an offline from a designer who’s store I featured a few years ago, letting me know he still remembered that the first time he appeared in a blog it was by me, and that now he had his own store blog.
I thought that was so sweet, and was excited to see some items I hadn’t seen of his on the blog. Yes I did go and search out his store every few months, but nothing that I didn’t already have, until today. So as soon as I logged in and sorted through everything I had to , I was off and running.I also checked out another store, then came home. Trying on all my new outfits I remembered that I had meant to swing by Refuge, so off I went again, and got two more styles to show with my other Refuge hair. I really like the hair produced by Refuge, especially with the straight across rock-a-billy bangs. The first style has the most adorable bows and pins decorating the pigtails look.
All the clothing I am wearing is from SK Designs, they have been around since 2007 and their look has changed a bit, but not too much over that time. The creator Sergio designs for both men and women, but I think from the style of clothing he does, that he probably enjoys making for women a bit more. The ensembles are sold as sets, so all you see is all you get, and sometimes more, depending on if there are other coloured tops or both long and shorter pants, etc. The prices are really reasonable and transfer, so if you are looking at buying items that you can share with your other selves, this is perfect.
The skins I am wearing are the Cleo skins from Dutch Touch, with more leaning towards the more creative of make ups in the range, the punk and pip make ups are a fun change. The eye make ups are especially gorgeous, and I have been wearing the punk skins on and off for the last few days, I love the liner on the inner part of the eyes.
Old boots in the form of the 3way Engineer boots from J’s, teamed up with the brand new Rea Suede plain boots by Pixel Mode, these are delightful , in a range of colours that you can co-ordinate with a vast range of seasonal choices. The style are simple but elegant, they have a semi scrunched look, and an incredibly high heel. What is very surprising and will make many happy , is that these boots are mod, so that you can size them to your needs.
I had a wonderful time revisiting an old store, and came out with lots of newness, I hope you like.
