Cheeky Red
When I was 16 there was the release of a Fragrance in RL called Lou Lou, now for some reason – and I have no idea why- House of Nyla has always reminded me of that fragrance, and those ‘Have you seen Lou Lou ” commercials.
There is always something so desirible about House of Nyla releases, I think that a lot of that comes from knowing these are items that are in the real world too, because of the incredible talent that Nyla Cheeky has for creating such incredible pieces, that she then goes on to share with us here.I guess thats where the Lou Lou comes into it, for many of us House of Nyla RL are pineworthy creations, items we can only dream of having and dream more about actually having places to wear them. But in Phils Place we can have both, we are blessed.
There’s also something fabulous in knowing that the creator of such heavenly pieces dresses celebrities in RL too, not only do House of Nyla designs ‘look’ made for superstars, they are.
The latest release Red Dragon Gown, is something that was designed for a special event RL, a wedding for an Independent Film Director, more info HERE. When you read her own description of what went into the creation of this incredible gown, you really get a glimpse of Nyla herself, she puts everything into her creations…but the most evident is her heart.
I remember when she worked on a dress for the actress from one of the Terminator Movies for a red carpet event, she spent days and nights hand beading the incredible dress, she didn’t get much sleep if any over those days, working her fingers to the bone to have it done on time. Then without much of a rest in between, recreating it for us to share.
Though this one doesn’t have that same kind of beading it is hand embroidered so again would have taken so many hours of intricate work, its a breathtaking piece and when you take into account all the little additions that Nyla did to make it even more personalised for the couples special day, there is more of it to love.
With the gown you have the incredible gathered silk skirt with drapes of gold and red, then the incredible corset itself that can be worn without the skirt with other gown skirts or on its own with the stunning lace panties, Nyla does wonderful Lingerie also.
Then there are the shoes, incredible beaded mules that would make anyone feel like a Princess, again more incredible labors of love.
I am wearing the Polly updo from TRUTH and the PopFuzz Skin Tan – ♥ Cupcakes Sanguine, adorning my ears and neck are the wonderful Casablanca set in Gold from Essentia.
Make sure you venture over to House of Nyla and explore all the incredible pieces that make her Fashion House something Superb, if not looking for a Gown look anyway as she has shoes, boots, bags, Jewelry , Hats, Silks and as I mentioned Lingerie..and such a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere.
Always thankful for
Essentia for my Beautiful Hair Roses and Jewelry many pieces of which I have watched being made, and had the pleasure of wearing first as they are custom fit to my shape-I’m blessed.

Maitreya Makes Redheads Purrrr
A month or so ago Onyx Leshelle of Maitreya told me that she was redoing her textures for her wonderful hair. My response of course was NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, but when she gave me a sneak peak at the newness to come that changed to a panting yes yes yes.
Well today they have been unveiled and OMG the hair textures on the NEW styles are just fantastic and whats more incredible is how superb they look on the older styles, giving them a big lift and the hair was already in my opinion fantastic, so now thats super duper fantastic.The jam hoodies have always been a classic style hiding under the fabulous sculpted hoods and wow they look incredible in the new textures and the hoodies with hair have all been updated so go forth and get your new hoods.
Mayte is a NEW release and the bangs on this are incredible, I love the razor style cut at the back, giving it a layered shaggy look.
Loelle is a retextured older style and again the new textures really bring out a richness to the long straight style, Onyx does fabulous straight hair.
River is again older but the new Reds in the new textures are just so beautiful, if you try and keep true to natural red in Phils Place then the New Textures Copper and Autumn are ones you will Have to Have.
Sophie is in my opinion the style that really started the big love for Maitreya hair, it got so much recognition when it was released as a wonderful all round style, going from casual to formal with ease and still today holds to that.
Sunday is the other New Release style and with its shaggy razor cut, with a shorter length and really long bangs this definitely makes an impression.
Now not all the styles have been redone yet , so what does that mean for you, a SALE yes all older styles that haven’t been retextured are reduced to 75L so take advantage of those reductions, but in all honesty you will want the new textures so bad lol.
There are also demos of the hair textures at the sides to the hair sections so make sure and grab those and fall in love like I did.
Skin is the MMSSun-Kissed-makeup5 and Base Make Up from Minnu Model Skins, the Cami tops are also from the Mirli Sweater sets also from Maitreya , so go and get yourself some incredible hair today.
Always thankful for
Essentia for my Beautiful Hair Roses and Jewelry many pieces of which I have watched being made, and had the pleasure of wearing first as they are custom fit to my shape-I’m blessed.

Thank You all
The wheelies fundraiser ended last night in the form of the items being sold around the grid, Id like to thank everyone for their generosity from designers to shoppers and people that spread the word.
The concert Dove organised on Monday was fantastic and if you all get a chance to stop by Wheelies you will see how incredible the place already looks.
I also wanted to thank Washu Zebrastripe from HairSpray who arranged with Polgara to donate her excess land usage tier to the Wheelies group, that was a very generous donation that will keep going. It also made me realise that during hair fair meetings last year around this time Hair Spray was setting up, so I either missed it or its coming up their One Year Anniversary, either way CONGRATULATIONS!.
We raised from our end L$81209 and thats not even including all the wonderful donations that were sent directly to Wheelies, One incredible lady donated 60K herself thank you so much for that as well as every other donation that has occurred in the past week and any that have happened in the past.
With this generosity from all Wheelies will be able to do more incredible things, so again thank you all.

Insolence has gotten Naughtier
When Camilla of Insolence sent me a review pack of Latex I was so excited for a number of reasons.Newness from Insolence for one is always Yummy, but also the idea that someone that usually designs such pretty, Lacey, sheer, sensual pieces of feminine lingerie, to suddenly do a side step into the darker arts -giggles at calling it that, it’s not even true but my fingers are possessed.
I have, as you have seen a lot of Latex , and what I love about the New Misty line from Insolence is how incredibly REAL it looks on the body.
Camilla has made some very daring sets too in this line, pieces I cant exactly show you in full form- well I can I just choose not to. You can though see them in full glory on Camilla’s Insolence blog HERE.
This is definitely play wear, with the different sets come different overall looks, some with a bit more coverage than the others, but all of them have play features, in the form of open crotch panties, allowing for some very mischievous play time.
The sets also have definite Dominant/Submissive leanings in their designs, some sets are definitely one over the other and so on, which makes for definitely interesting wear, but disregarding labels they are ALL sexy as hell.Another reason these are fantastic and not just the quality -which is superb – but it gives those wanting this look to spice up their wardrobes more accessibility, and I don’t mean items wise, I mean shopping wise.
If you have ever shopped for
Latex in the past, you will find that the majority of it is in malls that specialise in fetish wear and so on .I have no problem with shopping in such areas at all, but then I grew up in the sex capital of Oz, lol so its no different to me than going up the street for cigarettes.
Thats me though, and I know that even though some would love to spice up their boudoir, they aren’t always as willing to wander into such steamier sides of Phils Place, and that is TOTALLY understandable.
Insolence now makes that shopping easier, also imagine the next time your partner gives you an Insolence Gift Card for a special occasion and you come back with one of the New Misty line items – grins and imagines the do not disturb sign dangling from some doors.
Dionne the first picture is a wonderful almost full coverage set, this one is probably my favourite of the ones you are able to wear out.Not only is the latex incredible and has a definite tight rubber look to it, the zip work is incredible also.
The hair is one of my all time favourite straight styles , Saleen in Black from Here Comes Trouble which is a 1L styles.
The high high high heels are the Destiny heels from White Rabbit.
Tracey which is the second pic, is a clubbier look you can definitely wear out dancing , and the top to this set would look fabulous with your favourite pair of leather or latex pants, or even jeans, the style definitely has you strapped in nice and tight.
Keeping to that strapped in tight look I went with the Lilith boots by Dark Eden and the thigh pieces from the Lilith set, if your going for the boots, at the price you are crazy to not get the set as all the pieces are fab to mix with other things. The hair is another style from Here Comes Trouble called Lavonne, a bit more pulled back for nights of dancing.
The third picture which is Sally would have to be probably my favourite for the private times sets , its totally cupless but its more about the shape of the corseting that I am taken with. The thin suspender straps connected to the latex stockings are also yummy, and with the waist cutouts as well its very provocative, with full cut outs also you can always mix with other lingerie, maybe test the waters so to speak.
I am wearing the stunning Astrid Hair from Analog Dog, which I edited a little for the pics to cover up lol – always make a copy of hair before you mess with the prims, I would have been devastated if I had ruined this style, but with a copy I was able to move the front prims to not sink into my chest and cover up the cupless exposure.
The boots are the Ballet boots from The Dominatrix store, and they have new ones with lots more locks, these ones and the others also have removable heels on click, which gives you that true on pointe look when wanted.
The last set is the Grace set and this one is a lot more play time than the others, with the full breast cut outs , and the wonderful chaps pants as well as panties – can you actually call latex under pants panties ? sounds bizarre – whatever you want to call them, you get both options and again the detailing is wonderful.
Thanks to Camilla of Insolence you can now explore your naughtier side with discretion, and gifting is a breeze.
Always thankful for
Essentia for my Beautiful Hair Roses and Jewelry many pieces of which I have watched being made, and had the pleasure of wearing first as they are custom fit to my shape-I’m blessed.

Lavish Feri with Gravy
Ok I dont know if the thought of that is exciting to anyone else, but if you know Feri Beckenbauer the idea of pouring some gravy over him is kind of funny -ok its possibly only me.
Lets put Feri aside for a moment and take a moment to thank God that Old Gravy is back, because I for one am overjoyed that a whole folder of incredible hair can be worn again guilt free.
Katy Angel of Lavish Style sent me her two latest sets, and until yesterday I didn’t get the opportunity to pull them out and have a closer look, and they are both just fabulous. They totaly inspired a different look than I usually go for, but had all the pieces to do – which kind of contradicts that first statement I guess.
Lady Goth is the first set, it has lots of lovely pieces to the set, The detailing is wonderful and the use of sheer and ribbon lacing effects give it a sense of lingerie style, but as you can see with the right pieces you can definitely rock it out.The corset top is wonderful as I said with its sheer texture and the laces, but then my favourite parts are the armbands and the crossover straps at the front. The upper part to this set kept leading me to believe I was inked up, and definitely has a don’t mess with me kind of feel to it.
The option of flexi mini, or the flexi mini topped with sheer long skirt are both great options and its what gives it so much versatility, as well as the adorable hotpants. As the set inspired some serious TUDE’ I went with the Beckenbauer Productions Chantal Rose Elikapeka boots , wonder if you can guess who those are named after lol, I love Feri’s boots they are always like my happy boots , I just clump around in them and feel all goodly.
The hair is the Acid Aeri hair which I havent ever worn in a post before as its so awesome you would all cry you couldnt get it, but now you can with the much anticipated return of Old Gravy, I went by to see if I could find anything New last night but its still under construction , but if you cam in
the hair I already have is already set for sale and knowing how Old Gravy can be that under construction sign will probably stay there forever lol just to prove what lengths we will go to to get hair lol.
The next set is the Night Whisper set by Lavish Style and there is a great amount of loving for this style.The top is like incredible chainmalle at the bottom and the lovely silvery breast covering portion of the top has such great shading and gathering it really is top notch work – I really want a gown like that now lol.
You have two options again for skirts, first off the static super mini, that is just great for all AO’s , and then the flexi skirt with just a little more length but not much.
The stockings and gloves on this set are an incredible laced up effect, again incredible work, that would not be an easy achievement to create, and you know that you will get lots of options to pull them out and wear them with other combos , you also have the adorable hotpants and there are panties too but lost those somehow – no not that way dirty minded you .
The hair is TRASH , by Old Gravy , when this was released I raced right over to get it, that was at least 3 builds ago, in my time in Phils Place since I found Old Gravy there have been 6 this new one will be the 7th as far as my recollection goes lol.
Just goes to show Oldies are always goodies, this style always made me think of peroxide and heating wand torture, that you have done so much damage to your hair with chemicals and other manipulating tools that thats the look you end up with , isn’t it just FAB!.
Feri saved the day again with the wonderful Silver Flame Oi! boots , from Beckenbauer Productions with their as named silver flames up the sides and the fronts of these boots they are perfect for this set and overall look, not too flaming and not too out there , just a nice subtle hint of silver to the already fabulous boots.
The skin I am wearing is again the Arcane skin from TRUTH but in the Ghost tone Ruby Vivid Make Up, as I truly love this tone for Goth without looking like someone painted you with liquid paper.
Lavish style has so many incredible sets like these two from all ranges of looks lingerie to casual to formal so go and take a look asap.
Always thankful for
Essentia for my Beautiful Hair Roses and Jewelry many pieces of which I have watched being made, and had the pleasure of wearing first as they are custom fit to my shape-I’m blessed.
Nuclear Boutique for my lovely Lashes that I wear when I think of it and because Ari is awesome.
My Posestand is by VR and available on OnRez HERE!, not only does it have hide/show, but also has 3 options for changing poses, lights built in you command on/off in chat, and it rezzes a prim sphere around you that allows you to turn your camera 360 degrees and take pics without moving your stand, the sphere also changes colour on chat command too, its brilliant!.

Summer Time Love
When Kuranosuke Kamachi of Dela passed me the New Kate dresses, all i could think about was the beach.
Especially when I put on the long leggings underneath this wonderful dress, as it just makes me think of swim wear of the early part of last century.
The thing about that though is that it makes for an interesting canvas for an overall resort style look. If resorts aren’t your thing, then think Monte Carlo.So once I had that thought in my head it was all about looking as though I had not a care in the world, and that my only plans were making the most of the day and the transition socially into the night.
I wanted to also show off my new Reptile Sunglasses from Artilleri and the wonderful carpark sale that is on at the moment – when you get to the main store there is a sign to click for the LM to the SALE but it is just around the corner if you feel like the stroll.Kuranosuke likes using bold prints and colours in her work, and somehow she always makes them look extremely elegant. This dress is no exception, you can make it playful looking, but with a few accessories and some stylish hair you have glam. The cuff bangles that match the Kate dress come with so you are already half way there.
It actualy took me the whole time taking pics to realise that the hair I decided was the perfect look I was going for was also called Kate from Dernier Cri – and yes I finally dyed my second batch, its hard to go from the fabulous blonde but decided that that style needed to be shown off in a rich brunette.
The skin is the Latte tone in Disco make-up by Arcane based inside TRUTH, as I said when I originally posted this skin , it has a definite healthy look to it that I love. All of the wonderful footwear is also by Dela, the wonderful ankle boots called Devon, the Namid sandals with texture change gemstones in the Gold , and the Thaelle Heels without the ankle ribbons – its wonderful having two looks for one shoe.
The Byzantine Choker Chain is by Essentia and the linking for this chain is totally true to the RL link work that has made Byzantine a very popular style, and one I wear often. So if your day is needing that little glam lift then saunter on over to Dela and grab Kate for a day out.All the poses today are the NEW delish poses from Maitreya , Beau always does incredile poses and stands, so its always exciting with a new set is released and some for the men also.
Always thankful for
