    ISONIC

    Isonic

    When you have been a Blogger as long as I have, you have seen so many items come out of long standing stores in Second Life. Today I was able to mix and match newer releases with recent-ish releases, and some releases that I am not sure if they even exist anywhere for purchase but are by the same creator. That is the joy of Blogging though, styling a look together is not meant to always encourage someone to run out and buy it all and replicate what you did – mind you, if you want to do that go ahead – but more to inspire someone to go out and shop for elements they may not have, and then to remember components that they may already own in their inventory, to then use in a way that maybe they had not thought of in the past.

    Ison is one such brand, they have been around so long now, that it is hard to really remember a time we didn’t have them. I for one am glad we do, because Harry is such a lovely creator, and has such classic staple style, that as you evolve fashionably in Second Life he is there to guide that growth. I went to Collabor88 to grab this gorgeous cardigan and tank top from Ison, and they come in all the gorgeous packs that Ison is known for, I look forward to wearing each piece in many other ways in future. Their colour palettes are always so pleasing. Adding some accessories that are much older. The bag I was able to size down and the glasses are still perfect, with a colour hud that worked out so well with my look. I am and have always been – not that this is even news to anyone – a colour co-ordination addict. I cannot help it, I am that kind of person. So the mix of red, black and gold came up a treat for this look – we will ignore the fact that the bag has silver metal, sometimes you just have to go with what you have. It all paired up nicely with the high waisted jeans by Rowne.

    This hairstyle by TRUTH was also just perfect for this strolling around the city look. I really like the smoothed upper to the soft cascading waves look to it, then being able to pair it up with accessories like a headband or even just resting sunnies atop your head, whatever works, it is fun.

    Striking

    Striking

    I do love a good braided hairstyle, but what grabs me about this one, is that the ombre section of their HUD does not just give you a tapered effect going down, but actually follows the concept of what having an ombre hair style would do if braided. Now I cannot profess to doing a lot of ombre type wearing, to know how every store does a braid if they have one, but I just really loved the outcome of this one, and it really seemed to go that extra mile. Now I am also wearing my favourite, go to hairbase by Izzie’s, this is her babyhairsv2 hairbase, which is years old now, but it has been my go to the whole time, and really added to this hair in a great way. It is made with the SLUV so works perfectly with the Genus Morph heads. This also allows me to break out my AlaskaMetro makeup that is also SLUV, and the editorial set is just perfect for this look, everything started at the top for this post, and progressed from there.

    This braid was so striking, that it needed equally striking accessories, and these earrings from Mandala are that. The mix of red, white and black, was just perfect for this look, and this great dress from Vinyl brought it all together. I am wearing bom leggings with the dress, because one, I am cold, and two, I am cold. I did however leave some room to show off my UTOPIA@Design shoes I picked up at Shop and Hop SLB21, because they are gorgeous shoes and at the moment discounted in the UTOPIA@Design booth.

    The Vault – The Sounds of the City

    The Vault - The sound of the city

    I am still living in my Winter nod mode, because while it is sunny outside today, it is still really cold down here. I found these delightful knitted and well padded earmuffs by Pare that were a whole vibe of the opposite of wanting to hear things and instead feeling like you could just tune it all out, and sometimes that is exactly what you want to do. So I put together this going to the street markets kind of look, and pinned back my hair and off I go. Again another great Lamb style that has a pinned back section that gives realism to the earmuffs being worn. I really like being able to believe that feeling of the look.

    The Vault – Winter Rebel

    The Vault - Winter Rebel

    When you live on the other side of the equator, you really are living a Second Double Life. It is funny how many of us there are that are not in the start of Summer right now, but all fashion and releases at this time of the year definitely lean in that direction. This is not a new rant, I think I mumble something about this every year. I am not really upset about it, it is just funny. Today I decided to mix it up a bit, with a lightweight look, but with a nod to the cold that is the other half of the world, with this great headband from Pare, the beautiful cami top is also from Pare, and check out how fantastic the fit is on those straps.

    Now the hairstyle I am wearing is a Truth Collective style by Faga. However, underneath the headband is an actual braid going across the top ear to ear. This is a lovely style, but because it was all so securely pulled back to fit under the braiding, it was also the perfect style for this headband, as it gives the real impression that the headband is what pulled back the hair…I love that.

    I also wanted to create a vibe, that said even girls into the darker edgier side of things, can have a girly day. These armlets, the lovely earrings and the bhindi are all from stores featured at The Vault. Each item has HUD options and they all worked out well together for my needs. Maybe I am out shopping for some eye of newt, or just milling through a crowd to accidentally on purpose get a few strands of someones hair, for purely innocent reasons of course.

    The Vault – Having a Pearla

    The Vault - Having a Pearla

    Trust me the title is a good thing in Australia. It just means having a good time, but in this case, it also means I am adorned with jewels of the sea. I lucked out with Sparkle Skye releasing her Emily headband this just gone weekend, the full version comes with the double, the single and bows on the sides versions in both single and double, with texture change pearls and bows options, depending on what packs you buy. Against this silvery grey hair by Lamb it was just perfect, and I love the witchy style, with its shorter than usual bangs, that just make it pop. Then Yummy released a bumper set of incredible beachy themed boho earrings, which as a Pisces I had to log in just to get them. I am wearing the Bubbles version, so they are just cascading pearls, and they are lovely, so are all the others in the set, you need these for Summer and all the other fishy seasons.

    Bliensen + Maitai created this necklace called Milkyway for The Vault and with a bit of editing, I was able to get all the pearls very close in colours. The Sparkle and Yummy versions had huds, and were all mod, actually all three items are mod, so I was able to tweak everything as needed, isn’t that just the best news.

    The Umbrella and Horns are also The Vault items, and I really liked the idea of a darker look with these very girly items. The umbrella is very cool and has different settings of holds, so that it can be more covering or tilted back enough to still see how fabulous you look. It has a colourful animated gem at the bottom of the handle, but I tinted that black, modify permissions are AWESOME! The horns are also amazing, and they have a real bone feel to them visually…again I know what that means in my head, you will just have to take my word for it until you get yours.

    Baby Gothy Mothy

    The Vault - Gothy Mothy

    I do so love fun names for things, and the Gothy Mothy had me captured, the fact that the set is just so fun is besides the point, the name grabbed me first. I am just wearing the wings part of the set, there are antenna and eye coverings that are all texture change and animesh and just all sorts of fun to be had. Gave me a reason to put on my Baby Goth makeup by AlaskaMetro, as you know I do not need an excuse really for that, but how cute does it all look together, and can we applaud these horns by Celesticat, more HUDs of awesome, and the texture work is just fantastic. Inspired me to colour my hair, with this lovely TRUTH style called Angel, and well they wear wings right. I especially like this half updo style, because instead of a band around the pulled back hair, it is hair wrapped around hair, and I often use my hair to tie back my hair, I did it today actually, you have to do what you have to do when all your hair elastics turn into wire coat hangers.
