Going to the Chapel
Due to the fact that Fia wasn’t around today, I couldn’t get myself a custom wedding set, so no purple other than the backdrop in this one..but I will make up for it in other posts. I really was in the mood to shoot this tonight though, so I went with it, I am sure that Ashia will be a sport about it :P.
Somehow this evening, the conversation steered its way to weddings and partnering, so with that in my head, I pulled out the Waterfall Wedding Gown by Sascha Designs, also because of the fact that the beautiful new skin by YS & YS has a hair base with matching bun, that just looked such a perfect wedding bun style.
This gown has many options of wear, but this combo was my favourite, it has a real va va voom thing going on, sort of what you would expect a hollywood starlet to wear in the roaring 20’s. This gown could also be worn to an event, because of its more silvery sheen than pure white, that would totally work.
While at Sascha Designs I camera’d across and landed on Tally Hoo, the name alone made me smile, and I thought it would be a great accompaniment to the wedding gown. If Johnny Depp was a girl, and was getting married to another girl, this would totally be what he would wear, ok maybe not, but in my silly fantasy it would be.
All of the wedding floral items are from Essentia, there are bouquets, bouttonnieres and corsages, all matching and demos available in the store, all prim and no alpha, so it makes taking pics a breeze.
Speaking of pics I played around a bit with this pic in ps, so the prims laying properly along the floor as of course prims usually sink into the floor or just hang there, this gives it a bit more realism for the pic, but just so you know they will not do that in sl.
The skin again is new by YS & YS , three tones available in 14 make ups… freckles options , hair bases and cleavage enhancements, so you have so much choice, and the skin is just beautiful. So pretty, so feminine and with a really diverse look …DEMO DEMO DEMO.
I am using some new modeling poses from Body Language Sweet Lovely Cute, I actually would have shot so many more fun wedding shots, but again with all the alpha and prims, I wanted clean looks, so I will just have to use these fab poses in other shoots, the packs are great, so make sure you stop by and splurge.

Bounces
I should never mix redbull and berocca, I know I shouldn’t but I cannot help but get carried away. But then, like now I feel high… and I am going to have to make this a quickie.
A trench or any kind of coat of this caliber is always a MUST HAVE, it really doesn’t even matter that it is summer, this is the kind of coat you can work anywhere at anytime. It is a lot to do with what goes underneath, and even in summer you have those cool nights spent out on the town, that can get instantly cold as you teeter home on 6inch heels at 4am – not that I would know anything about that , usually I take my shoes off :P.
The coat is brand spanking new from DeLa and as usual just gorgeous, coming in a variety of colours that just work your inventory perfectly. The dress I am wearing with I have had to blog for months – argh – I have lost and refound it now three times, but this week I anchored it down so I wouldn’t lose it again.
The style is pure sexy, with the slightly rounded sides and a thin line going up the sides. The gathered effect is just great, and there are lots of layer options, even including bustier and panties, and trust me these are ALMOST the tiniest panties I have ever seen. But the fun part is in the fact that there is a ‘hot’ version of the top as in it comes down lower and reveals what you will never see lol.
But what I love about that, with it coming on all layers, you can combine different colours to get different contrast looking dresses, as shown on the right, by combining the undershirt layer in the red with the shirt layer in the ‘hot’ black I got another whole dress, and if I did the same in reverse, again another whole dress…so if you buy two you get four.
The hair I am wearing is a new style by Tiny Bird, have you seen the most adorable packs they have of hair now, the full colour range pack comes as a nest you hold, and each individual pack is eggs you click on. SO perfect for those that want all, but don’t want to unpack all at once. The new textures are just great, and this style is as are the other new ones, perfect for those girly days.
I have to admit if I was teetering home on these shoes, I would try very hard not to take them off, because they is sexxxxxy with their fringeynessness and all the others bits and pieces that make them a wonderful going out heel to have.
Ok thats me out, I am starting to sway as I type. Bouncesssssss to B.B.B.Bed lol the aussies will get that. I always type way too much when I saw it’s a quickee lol.

Blog – Big Sur
More beautiful items from the Footwear Expo, I am loving the diverse range of this years fair. So far there has been an equal kind of ratio on new items and already released. But as I always say ‘everything old is new to someone” so those creators that didn’t get a chance to release new items for the fair, still have an audience.
I got all excited a few weeks back, when I saw the city fur hat from LeLutka, I even mentioned to Minnu that she needed to make us muffs for the cold weather, as I have always wanted one in Second Life, and funnily enough had still yet to find one. Now LeLutka has released a fur hat and muff combo as their LeLook Exclusive for this month.
I went to Elate the other day as mentioned, and was really excited to see a dress called Tuli, which of course makes sense when you realise that the latest Bella skins have a make up called Kellie lol. I decided that I wanted to go all out with the sweater dress. I grabbed one of the latest releases from Nyte n Day, the Just Corset in Sand, and adding a tint got it the colour I wanted. The Just Corset and Just bands are great to completely change, or enhance a look, coming on all layers they rock.
Back to the Tuli dress though, this sweater dress is snuggly, with the large cowl neck and extended sleeves you will feel all huggable in it. The leggings I am wearing are the Zaara’s Nishar Leggings in Ivory – again tinted – to add the same tone to them as the dress…because if I am going to be this warmed up, I need to get into some serious layering. I also at one stage just wore the knee high and thigh high sock versions of the leggings, which also created a fun look.
The sensational Big Sur boots are from YS & YS , they are featured at the footwear expo and are just glorious leather in a great range of colours. They definitely have a lovely lived in look to them, and a definite trip to the cobblers to have them perfectly fitted feet.
Also from YS & YS in the footwear department, is the Illetes Sandals. A roman sandal look, with the added bonus of not just being able to change skin, nails and toe rings, but also the ability to change the metals featured…I went with the bronze as it is a lot softer with the brown shades in the picture.
Again from Elate is the Penelope dress set combo. You not only get the colour top that you buy the outfit in, but also the white. Giving you two looks, and more if you choose to wear the tops on their own with other skirts or pants, or the skirt with different tops, it is all finished well to achieve that. I love the scaled look of the skirts on these dresses, as being a pisces they rock my fishness.
More tones of the beautiful Bella Skin by Tuli than the ones I took the main pics in. I am also wearing a latest release lingerie set from Blowpop, lowrise boyshorts and triangle bra’s called Cassie, which is funny because the triangle bra reminds me of training bras we used to start out with when younger. Most recently Bonds of Australia brought back this look big time here, and the colour coordinating or not contrast look has been featured big time in their ads… so I am chuffed to have that option for Second Life too.

Funk On
I think all three looks today are more about dressing for yourself, rather than for the company you are keeping. Often we tend to wonder what will appeal to the partners we have, or the friends we socialise with, sometimes you just have to get your own funk on.
All about tude and these three dresses have lots of that, while still keeping true to the girly girl. It started being about the skins, then the clothes and then not so surprising the hair took over, and wow what hair. Yeah slowly I know I am making my way through my Hair Fair folder, but thats the fun of the whole thing, I can keep working my way slowly through it, and it makes every folder a brand new experience all over again.
It’s 11am and my day is pretty much at an end, but because of these looks I really haven’t wound down at all, in fact I want to start all over again. Ok now that I have pinched half my friends list on the bum – just because – I have a little less energy lol.
Creative hair like these styles make me so glad I get to be a resident here, diversity isn’t just about where you are from, and mixing with other nationalities, I think it’s about trying new things for yourself as well, things that may not always be available to you.
Also the hair base on these skins as an option in brown, blonde or red, definitely do give the hair a little something more. Make sure when you are demoing hair with hair bases on, you really wear a hair style that will benefit from having such a skin, it will give a little something extra to so many styles.
I took the Seductiva AO for another spin today, capturing different looks within the same animations. If you haven’t been to Red Queen to see how much fun they are, you really need to, and take your men with you, they have male AO’s that are just fabulous.

Tulip – Miel, Magika, Your Skin, DeLa
I was in the middle of shooting the Your Skins Nina skins, when Miel shared with me their latest release. It being now 3.50am as you can imagine the ability to not have to think of what to wear with these lovely skins just got taken right out of my hands…wooohooo.
The Miel AM Tulip Mix and Match sets are just so perfect for a Mothers Day release, in keeping with the floral lovelyness of past releases, this style is feminine and endearing with a little bit of raunch thrown in. The colour pallette used do allow for mixing and matching, and even better still they are colours that work with other items in the Miel range.
Having options on layers is always a big plus, and short and longer options for tops allows for people to choose to bare their tummys or not, which can be a deciding factor for many purchases, as well as the thin straps on the longer tanks v’s the thicker straps with bows look. The other great options are with or without the lovely tulips in pockets, and even with or without pockets at all, allowing for a smooth fronted top instead.
The skirts and belts on these sets, are also so lovely, and I can see wearing the belts on their own with other items as well, because of the sheer casual tied look to them they would look great over jeans or pants.
The hair I am wearing is a NEW release from Magika, the Curl style is just gorgeous, a recent release of one unclipped called Doll is a must have also. The new wavey looks coming out of Magika make it a store to visit at least twice a week to keep updated on all that comes out of there, from hair to skins to clothing.
Speaking of skins, the Your Skin Nina skin is so soft and pretty in both make up and over all complexion. The rosebud lips are pouty without being overly so, the eyemake up is smokey and soft, but enough to wear as evening make up.
You of course also not only get the three brow options of dark, light, red, but also the hair base in brown, blonde and red. The hair bases have the softest curls framing the face, and add such a nice hint to some of the more pulled back styles.
Definitely try on some no bangs style hair with the demos, you will really love the effect. Your Skins have a growing range of different faces in their skin lines, so take some time and really look at what each one has for you.
DeLa recently released beautiful new poses, Eitaro does such lovely work and I especially love her walks, make sure you take them all for a spin at the posestands available before purchasing, they are lots of fun and have great style.
The bikini I am wearing is Urban by Vogel , Vogel has some fabulous bikinis I have featured in the past, you need to check out their range for the upcoming heatwaves.
