Footwear Expo starts at 10am HERE
Incredibly small prims are a challenge for anyone that builds, whether it be for clothing, Jewelry or accessories. It takes an ability to manipulate prims against all boundaries, there are of course nano prims now, and sculpties make that task easier…there are older creators who mastered it with regular prims though, and often it is just awe inspiring.
Whether old school or new skills, the task is hard, but the outcome can be incredibly satisfying. One creator doing amazing things with small prims and in this case shoes, is 2408 Alekseev and her store 24 Shoo Shoes. I know 24 from other endeavors and she has always been such an incredibly lovely person, and really cares about her business…seeing this progression over the past year into this incredible work is a delight.
Definitely catwalk inspired shoes, these are why we adore Second Life most I would say, the ability to wear spine snapping shoes with no aches or pains, other than making sure our skin matches, and believe me 24 has made that incredibly painless too. She has included two skin huds in her shoes, which genuis-ly (ok possible made up word) are on an alpha layer that you can move your camera to make sure your legs are behind and get the perfect shade, its fabulous. Like I said incredibly detailed and just beautiful, you will have to see them for yourself.
The clothing I chose to feature the shoes with, are the sexy and seductive Feather Dress by LeLutka, such beautiful details to this dress, I am though missing a part of it which covers the breasts, but I liked it without and with Jewelry that I chose to let it go. Definitely runway worthy, this dress lets you dress it up even more with things such as the Dramatic lashes from PanJen, and some lovely Jewelry pieces from Sigma and Hair Rose from Essentia finished the look.
Then we have a much older dress from Tuli, this dress comes with a long skirt gown option that I adore, but of course because we were featuring the shoes I went with the shorter option, still such a classic the Gwen gown is, it makes me want to beg Tuli to make more and more clothing, when she is able to create such perfect pieces as these.
Perfect accessories from Glow Studios in the KOS Set, it even actually comes with a handbag, but it was enough without, and a wonderful soft gold, that just enhanced the richness of the whole look. The vixen skins by Gala were an easy choice for that severe yet gorgeous look I wanted to create, BAM! I am a serious catwalk model BAM BAM! – laughs as I tip off the stage. But seriously it really has that look for runway, especially with such incredible make ups, my obvious choice for the gold was Majesty make up.
Just remember whatever shoes you buy at the fair – and don’t forget part of most sales are going to charity, in some cases all -Â make sure you WORK IT BABY!.

The name July came about not originally as the name of the month at all, but in fact it was named that after Julius Caesar. Even though we are well past July now, these skins carry the name, and do so well.
They are lovely skins as usual from the PXL line, and with the brand new build, and all of Harts other endeavors going on at the moment, it is amazing they got released at all. But they did, and just in time for Vanity Skin fair, that will be ending this weekend. There are lots of brow options for this skin, freckles and wonderful tones from light to dark..I actually left one tone out, because at the time I did think it was the tone I took the main pic in, my bad, but they are all there at the store.
I logged into SL yesterday with one mission, to get me to Lamb as fast as I could. The new Whoop De Doo hair is all win for me, and I am hoping that Lamb will do more of these bangs on her regular styles, Say with a Widows Peak would make me happier than Happy.
For now I am just over the moon with this style, and it fits my mood so well right now. A new release from Miseria this week, has me in the Bitter Jeans as well as the Ash cardigan..also from Miseria, I love the jeans, they have that worn in look, with a low slung hips finish, and the cardigans are twinset look adorable. A college student look for me; with even the HOC Glasses to add a touch of authenticity to my look. Jewelry by Essentia to wrap up the look, and away we go.

So the other day I was flipping through some pics, fashion ones. I came across some ankle boots, and it was instant drool worthiness. Then later that same day, I came across a pair very similar, and they definitely deserved my attention.
The CoCo Zipper boots are just too cool to pass up, a few days later I ended up seeing them as well as others featured on Fabulous Fashion by Carissa Crimson, and I almost ended up with more by this creator, but with Shoe Fair only days away I have decided to wait.
With the oncoming cool weather for the majority of SL residents, stores are changing their colour pallettes, but bold vibrant prints are taking charge and are not going down quietly. LeLutka has just done another large release of incredible clothing, and with their new regime of smaller releases, it is going to be hard to keep up.
Charliz is Dancing in Polka, is a sexy mini dress, with bold pattern and colours. This style reminds me so much of Grace Jones I just had to get hair to match, or in this case Hera.
Another Vanity Skin Fair skin, this time by Chai Suki, the Elise skin is a sneak peak of more to come from this range, and in this make up is released at the fair in all tones..with more to come. Four lovely tones, with great body work, and passionate make up.
The body of the skins as stated is great, and unusual to see vein work on the legs and hands, it is only subtle but definitely there, giving it a more natural look. Even the underneath of the feet have the shading of bent toes, which I found really cool.
When thinking bold and vibrant, you can’t really go past Artilleri, so with that in mind I decided to show off the tones in the LeeLee bikini, a lovely vintage swimsuit, that if you do not have it, you must go get it now.

For the longest time Ashia has been talking to us about her good friend Steiner, the cute and way too adorable thing is that when he talks to you , he makes sure to include that he is Ashia’s friend, so that we know who he is :), I think it’s so lovely and charming.
He is of course also a Skin creator just like Ashia is, and his brand is SD. I was checking out his booth for Vanity Skin fair that starts on Saturday, and his booth is full of beautiful skins, the stand out one for me was of course Vivienne. The pale beauty that this skin personifies is just lovely.
The skin tone is a win win for those that light a lighter skin, without being too pale, and the make ups are just wonderful, you also get three options for the down there regions, so even though 8 make ups, you actually get 24 skin variations. The prices of each skin as a single are very reasonable, and as a pack a steal.
The softness of the skin and it’s make ups reminded me of the Emotive Bubble dress from Paradisis, it’s able to be worn two ways, and is really adorable in a sexy kind of way, it comes in other colours but for me the plum was just a win win.
I am wearing the lovely Flare hair from Gurl 6 another favourite of the range, this style was a charmer when first released due to the painted curls which was very rare back then. Make sure you get prepared for Vanity Skin Fair starting 7th November 2009 until the 22nd .

So the long awaited is finally here, for me it feels a little longer, as one day I beta tested a first skin and then never heard anything else…unfortunately as stated in my last post I have been a tad distracted of late.
I went over to the setting up of the Vanity Universe skin fair, and was lucky enough to find demos of the New Sienna line by Ryker Beck. Now Ryker is a name that goes with skins in my mind, since way back when she first started appearing as a very talented blogger, she was the most intense skin poster ever. If your skin was blogged by Ryker it came out feeling like it needed to be hugged and tucked into bed with its favourite blankie…I am by no means saying she was hard on it, but seriously if you were a skin you definitely went under her microscope and how lol.
Some of you will know her more because of her art on Flickr, she is incredibly talented, and it has taken a lot of productivity for her to – from a spectators point of view – reach her nirvana. This skin line is a huge leap into gorgeousness, the face is beautiful and sensual all at the same time, the attractive features and divine make up had me at kaching.
Now I have to admit I was a bit eeek at all the make ups, some I wanted way more than others, and as she has smaller packs to choose from I was dismayed to find that all my wants were spread out, well NO FEAR because I actually remembered smatterings of information that had seeped into my subconscious.
Exodi the store owned by Ryker has a build your own pack system. If you purchase one of her prepaid cards at her main store, for 5K , you get to choose any 8 make ups from her collection, and as there were ten I had chosen as favourites this was perfect for me. I narrowed it down to 8 and then using the card was in my element.
One of my favourites would have to be the Snow, the stunning make up I am wearing in the clothed picture , it is just gorgeous. The body of the skin is lovely and there are so many options with the skins, brows, freckles, cleavage and you even get eyes made by Ryker in all natural colours for free, how awesome is that.
The Lingerie I am wearing for the body shots is from Insolence and was sent out as a Gift pack for What’s New SL , thank you so much Camilla it’s beautiful.
Now I think I would have gotten drawn and quartered if I didn’t wear the ALa Mood Jewelry I have on with the Sienna Skins, as Jori has been the one making the most noise over the Exodi Sienna skins in the past week or so, so together they go, and lovely they both are.
Mixing it up with some Aoharu and Anexx the Aoharu Boutique shoes line. I had fun picking up the lovely ice colour of the boots in the shoulder ruffles of the girl in the picture on the tshirt dress.
My hair today is from Gurl 6 these are two more of my all time favourite styles from the store, Six Kennedy is an amazing woman , and I love her styles that went so against her usual creations, when she branched out she always ended up making gold.

Are you going to want to buy out the entire store, I do believe so. Are you going to take your bestest Male friend/partner/lover with you, oh most definitely. I arrived at the store and was instantly drawn to not only its clothing and accessories, but the overall ambiance and flow of the store.
They just get it, you will know what I mean when you go visit for yourself. The clothes are fabulous seperates and combination’s throughout, the designers have a great way of showing off their ideas and concepts, without dictating to you how you should wear them.
Myself is the name of the store, and you will just want to gobble it all up. As I said the accessories are fab, as you can see the bags and belts are just glorious. Not only do the belts come on different attachment points, but also either modify or resizer script enabled, and different hues of the same colour in each set. You will not want for anything when it comes to options.
The bottom picture is actually a set, the pants, shirt and belt with also a bag the same as the ones in the other picture, so you need to definitely check out the combination sets before accessories, as you may just save yourself a packet.
The Sita sweater dress and sweater itself are actually options you get when buying one colour, I am showing two obviously but just imagine both ways same colour. It’s a lovely soft cotton knit, and I can see it being very useful for the upcoming cooler days. So much fun combining the two looks with the accessories and also having great colours to work with in the boots and flats from Pixel Mode.
I have much love for the hair today, the top style Wrangled Piggies – chuckles at the name – is from Epoque and it was created to go well with the Sand Shack Surf Co cowboy hat, but on it’s own it is equally splendid. The second style is the New Charli from Maitreya, the look is just sweet and a great continuity style. Lastly Nicole from Aden, I love this hair, obviously because I have posted the other day in it again, but this time it’s brown :P.
Again featuring the beautiful Jolie skins by Dutch Touch, more lovely make ups, with the really beautiful body detailing. There are so many options to these skins now, freckles , eyebrows shape and colour, cleavage and layers for those extras and differing make up styles. I personally love all the skins from Dutch Touch so when there, if Jolie isn’t your thing, try on some of the other demos

Mai to the I to the Ki
Everything Old is New to someone, I always say it, have done forever now, have even seen it quoted in the past which made me happy. Recently I have been trying to go back and forth between my inventory, and I always check out the walls as much as I can in stores that have new releases, because you never know what you might have missed in a blink.
When I was working for Maitreya I was so happy to be able to revisit my MAiiKI, one of my favourite moments in the store, was showing three ladies upstairs to this incredible Collaberation Collection of Designers Maitreya and Dutch Touch.
The ladies were incredibly fun, and really passionate about their looks and style, but wanting to class it up than what they had been exposed to wearing in the past, these were fuller figured women, and they just adored how much MAiiKI enhanced and brought out what it was they loved about their shapes…that will always be one of my favourite days in the store. If I don’t get the people contact I wither and fade, and there is something so pleasing about helping people in second life.
One of the most standout features to the MAiiKI collection is the mix and match abilities, and when I first blogged the collection, I did a lot of that, this time I kept it as is, worn straight from inventory, it is actually from wearing these clothes that made me beg Onyx to do the Neyya pumps in a two tone toe/heel cap version, because the colour contrasts in the sets was too delish.
There is everything in this collection, incredible system skirts, sculpted skirts, gloves, collars, socks, half gloves, anklet cuffs, wrist cuffs, belts and amazing colours that work so well with the Maitreya Gold shoes as well. I was watching GREEK the other week and got so excited that one of the characters was wearing a dress just like the second picture, I even told Onyx lol, I was sitting there bouncing that she had on MAiiKI in a TV show.
While I was shooting the pics I ended up in Kala Bijoux’s IM box, she is the one of the creators behind Material Squirrel, it inspired the shot in green, how sexy does it look to have these wicked sculpted Demon wings with that dress on, to me it’s like the perfect Halloween look for those that don’t want to do over the top costumes, but want to do more of an evil temptress kind of look.
As you can see, using the HUD I was able to make them smaller and do all sorts of other things with them via it, so even if large expansive wings aren’t really you, the smaller just look adorably evil. You could of course always go with Fae wings or Angel, Material Squirrel has them all, and so beautiful.
I am also wearing the DUNe skin by Dutch Touch, it is giggle worthy how in sync those two are, Onyx and Iki , they often have same colours, names, ideas, it’s like they share a creative gene or something, but from both them and Beau of course, sprout such beautiful items.

At a few minutes before the hour of midnight last night, Arabella, Ashia and I tpd around like crazy women, to try and get to all the 50L friday items. We managed I think to get most of them before Ashia had to leave…it is always so hard to spend the right hours together with everyone living all over the world.
The last few days I have been sleeping almost like an aussie, it’s been shocking to the system. Mel doesn’t sleep like an american, Whimsy doesn’t sleep much at all, Ashia is always up extra late for a pom, and Arabella burns the candle at both ends in NZ.
It is now 8am and I still haven’t slept, but I had a great time nattering with the masses in FE today, and having Whimsy be mean to me, yes yes she was a meany bum. Yesterday much earlier in the day I was sooooooooo cranky, that the girls had to deal with me grumbling as we shopped, and then I got to BP* and I was in a glorious mood, because I found the ultimate in vintage jeans love….actually it was a denimpaloooza, not only did I find the jeans of Yum, but also the Gaucho denim pants of Yummyness too.
The flared back of the jeans is just wonderful with inbuilt ruffles in gingham they made me squeel with delight. You get three options of colour in the pack, but really can you go past red for your gingham. I was also overjoyed that it went perfectly with the Summer Breeze dress top portion that I was wearing yesterday in yellow, in the red which I had also bought…I was a happy bumblebee, the fact that Anya has used the system skirt for the bottom of this is awesome.
The top half of me was taken care of in full by OhMai today, not just the top of the dress for with the jeans, but also the lovely cami and vest..the vest is the type of open look that goes with just about everything, dressier pants or a slimline skirt, it will all work really well. Sometimes you just have to get your denim groove on, and today was my day to do so.

Beetlebones Beetlebones Beetlebones
Ashia and I went on a shopping spree earlier this evening, and went to somewhere I had been telling her that we had to the last few days, when Ashia was tping to another location, I spotted a SALE sign.
Jumping over from one store to another, I found that Beetlebones was having a 50% off everything Sale until the 24th, which worked out perfectly because I was able to incorporate those buys, with the wondeful hair that is also on SALE at Tiny Bird, yes Tiny Bird and Long Awkward Poses are having a 50% off SALE to celebrate their One Year anniversary of Festivale, congrats to them both and everyone else that is on that sim 🙂 it’s a lovely place to spend time.
Beetlebones collection varies from dressy to casual, and the prices at the moment are crazy, but even if you don’t make it to the SALE the full prices are really well priced anyway.
The other week I was hanging with Justice, and she was showing me her new ankle boots from G Field, as soon as I saw them I knew I must have… they are like Maryjanes that have extras, they have the straps of a shoe, with the added benefits of a boot, with texture changes on the buckles in various metals. There are small packs as well as a fat pack greatly priced, and at the moment there are two versions in pumpkin orange that have been reduced to only 30L so you should make sure and grab those too.
I felt like wearing an older skin today, and my go to was the beautiful Poppy skin from La Sylphide, just because when I think Tiny Bird and LAP it’s not a far leap to Stephanie Misfit, plus I really love how her skins look for any occasion.

LANd Ahoy
Two different tones in the same skin, can really change a look and a feel for the same make ups. It can change a dismal day into something really fun and joyful, or it can better reflect a more somber mood.
I often feel that way with skins, and being able to actually swap from tone to tone can really change everything about a day. I have been flat out lately, and have actually been negligent in inventory sorting, so much that it got overwhelming. I have even been running to the same folders to put on in a hurry, as a mad dash and suitable look go to, and that is very unusual for me, but one folder that kept repeating was definitely the first and second dress today.
I found myself wanting to put it on many times, just because it was pretty and made me happy with it’s swish swish. Also the fabulous Promenade boots from Kalnins ended up being the ones I most enjoyed with the dress, kind of a mix of dressy casual, that I am dressing to look like I didn’t try look, but we all know it took planning to put together lol.
Depending on what look you are going for, both the boots, which are texture change and a fabulous take on the cowboy boot, making a sexier ankle boot version, also with texture change metal features, and even glow …with the Jocelyn dress from DeLa come up a treat. Also as the dress comes in great solid colours, but also on every layer, I used the opportunity to pull out an oldie but a goodie clothing layer belt from Diversity called Adena. Clothing layer belts can be a fun way to totally change the look of something, and if they are on all layers, they are priceless.
The addition of some accessories and a fabulous hairstyle from OH , Whimsy and I went to OH last week and bought it out, I think that Fhaya Denimore better hurry up and make more, they are all delightful and really well priced, all of the hair I am wearing today is from OH..so be sure to check it out, if you haven’t already.
Now back to the divine DeLa, the Jocelyn in black with the bits and pieces is definitely a night out look, where as the Jocelyn dress in the red with the addition of the Sweater Wrap in white, also from DeLa makes it more of a casual smart day look, or maybe even an early date ending with a nice stroll along the beach – made sure I wasn’t corny enough to say promenade ;).
The next two sets by DeLa, are SEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXY.
Not just the overall looks, but also the colours, the grey I couldn’t get into fast enough in the Lita Set, now I am wearing a camisole that is a separate item with this today, only because due to all different skins and how people make them, there is a slight showing of nipple in this skin/set combo, it is not that way for all but it is something you do need to take into account, as do the designers creators. It was also the tiniest sliver but I don’t show, so it was not something I could just let slide without letting you know.
But because of this, I was able to do a less naughty look, but in my opinion just as, if not more sexy. The Legwarmers come with the Lita set, and they are just fabulous too, I can see wearing those with many things, and maybe if we are lucky Kura will box them up separately or something similar in the future, because with the upcoming cooler weather for many, these are just all sorts of fun.
The other set in that killer sexy red, is the Lisa set , and just YUM, the colours this set comes in are just marvelous. Strapless and provocative, with the added half sleeves, and those slouchy thigh highs, all too yummy. Because of the way it is built as well, you could so totally mix and match colours from one set to another, and make your own fabulous combination’s.
The skin I am wearing with these looks is all by Fishy Strawberry, and the skin is LAN in the Latte and Cappuccino tones. They are not so far apart tone wise, but the overall effect of them is so different I had to show both this way. The make ups are just lovely, not overly done, yet with a really nice selection of both eyes and lips, as well as hairbases in light and dark, and just because she could, Fae has added hair to be worn with the bases , in the packs.
