The Last Few Hours of Vintage Fair 2012 Featuring *SoliDea FoliEs*

Sadly, it is the last day of Vintage Fair 2012. It closes at 3pm SLT today. So, if you missed anything or did not make it there yet, now is the time go! I figured I would close with an amazing creation from Mila Tatham of *Solidea FoliEs*. Her 'Salima' dress is just one of the many gorgeous exclusives you will find from her at Vintage Fair. Mila is truly an artist and all her creations are timeless.
Once again, I am wearing the gorgeous Vintage Fair exclusive from Lara Hurley Skins. 'Claudia' is so lovely and you must grab it now! So, let me shut-up and get your cute pixelated butt down to Vintage Fair before it is gone. Here are your LMs:

Last Day of Vintage Fair Featuring :: Purple Moon ::

It is the last whole day for Vintage Fair 2012. I was really hoping to get more posts in, but SL just would not let me. I think it is my connection, but I am not sure. Whatever it is, it needs to be fixed....SOON! It is making it impossible to blog. Anyway, on a brighter note, Poulet Koenkamp of Purple Moon Creations, created the most amazing Chanel inspired 'Jackie Vest and Skirt'. It just screams early 60s chic a la Jackie O. Poulet's creations are definitely one of the highlights of Vintage Fair 2012. Plus, she is one of the very generous sponsors of this event. So, go NOW! SHOP, SHOP, SHOP! Before this event comes to a close on August 29th around 3pm SLT. Here is your LM:

Vintage Fair 2012 Is Winding Down...


Sadly, Vintage Fair 2012 is coming to close to soon. The 29th is the very last day :( So, I will be trying to show as much stuff as possible, before it ends. One of the great things about Vintage Fair, is that is showcases new and upcoming designers, as well as known and established creators. One designer, who is make a name for herself, is Blueberryxx. Her mesh is very well made and her creations are a mix of laid back, casual and sexy pieces. She is definitely one to watch! So, for this post, I decided to wear her exclusive 'Pina' dress. This super adorable strapless dress, is adorned with polka dots and can be worn in so many ways. I wanted to do something different and give it an 80s feel. So, I paired it with my favorite mesh shorts from Toki-Doki and added some tights. I am not really sure if this represents 80s style per se, but I tried. LOL. I do hope you like it.
I also decided to wear another fabulous Vintage Fair exclusive from Izzie Button. It is special 80s edition of her 'Eliza' skin. In comes on 3 make-ups that definitely represents the bright and vivid colors of that era. So, since I am a bit brain dead, I will just give you the LMs. Please make sure you try on these demos and shop, shop, SHOP! You will not be disappointed!

From The East...


I absolutely adore this month's Collabor88 theme, which is 'Baroque'. I love the rich colors and textures and all the beautiful creations that are based on this theme. One of my favorite pieces, is from one of my favorite designers and friends, Applonia Criss of CHANTKARE . If you read my blog at all, then you know how much I appreciate Applonia's fabulous use of patterns of textures. So, this theme was perfect for her. She created a beautiful 'BAROQUE TUNIC DRESS', which come in a gorogeous array of colors. I really love the simple lines mixed with such an intricate pattern. It is a Fall wardrobe MUST! It can be worn and layered in so many ways. However, for this post I decided to keep things simple, so I could really show off the tunic. I hope you like it as much as I do. Here are your LMs:

Limited Chic


There are so many events going on in SL! It is becoming impossible to keep track of them all! LOL! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE events! Especially events, where you can purchase gorgeous designer exclusives for a very reasonable price. Limited Bazaar is one of these of events, where you can purchase fabulous finds for just 150L! One of my favorite brands, who is participating in this cycle, is Fleshtone. They have two stunning dresses available, but I chose to wear their uber chic 'Marina' dress for this post. I have huge weak spot for tailored 'shirt dresses'. They always look fashionable and do not need much additional accessorising for them to look complete.
 I also decided to wear a skin that I have meaning to post for ages! I do apologize for my tardiness. As most of you know by now, I have been having major connection issues. It takes forever for me to complete one post. I went from doing one post per day to 3 posts per week (if I am lucky). This skin is called 'Isabelle', which was created by NatalieWells of Deesses Skins, and comes with a ton of make-up options, which I LOVE. She also includes teeth, hairbase and cleavage options as well. I like 'Isabelle', since she has a slightly more mature look. Now, by mature I do not mean 'old'. I just don't feel she looks like a teenager. I really suggest that you take a look a Natalie's skins. She caters to everyone. A demo is definitely in order!
OMG, I am so in love with Kavar Cleanslate's, of Exile, new 'Sober' style. I love the super sophisticated short style. It is definitely a new favorite of mine and a wardrobe MUST. I am so happy that Kavar came back from his small hiatus and is creating again. He was definitely missed! There are many new styles, so I suggest you try them ALL!

Elegant Steps

Vintage Fair 2012 is at it's peak! I am actually a bit overwhelmed by all the amazing creations that are influenced by so many different eras. One of my favorite finds, is definitely the 'Elegant Steps' dress from Giz Seorn of GizzA . For the fair, she created this 40's inspired dress in black, which goes perfectly with the 'Vintage Tuxedo' that she created for men. Yes, there are also many fabulous finds here for males as well. This is one event that definitely does not just cater towards women. So, I encourage all fashion forward men to get their cute pixelated butts over to Vintage Fair now! Girls, please drag your stubborn boyfriends with you when you go, so you make them get some gorgeous new clothes. Unfortunately, I know way too many men, who love to stick to just one or two outfits. This has definitely got to stop! LOL! I also must mention that GizzA is one of the very generous sponsors of Vintage Fair, who helped make this awesome event possible.
Speaking of sponsors, oOo Studios is another creator who helped make this event possible. Olaenka Chesnokov's poses are some of the best on the grid. In fact, I would definitely say the she is one of my top three favorite pose creators. For Vintage Fair, Olaenka created some really fantastic singles and couples poses. If you like to take pics as much as I do, I seriously recommend you check-out her Vintage Fair booth now! I dare you not to buy all her poses! For the following pics, I used her exclusive couples poses: 'Argentine' and 'Pas de Deux'
So, enough with my rambling and please go check-out the venue. Here are your LMs:

Atena!

Nevery Lorakeet always creates such beautiful designs and her latest piece is no exception. This stunning creation is also known as the 'Atena' dress. It is all mesh too! I am amazed at how Nevery can create mesh with such a diaphanous texture and so much flow. Usually, this type of look can only be accomplished by using some type of 'flexi prim'. I am truly in awe. This gorgeous gown comes in three pretty colors with a choiceof five different sizes. A definite must have!
Speaking of gorgeous new creations, Izzie Button just released a beautiful new skin called, 'Elena'. I think this is definitely one of Izzie's best skins to date. Albeit, all of Izzie's skins are fabulous and keep getting better and better with each new release. She is definitely making her mark as one of SL's top skin designers. 'Elena' comes in a ton of skin tones! So just about anyone can find the skin color of their liking. Each tone comes with one base skin. The base skin comes with four brow colors and also a cleavage option. Then she gives you a ton of make-up tattoos for eyes and lips. Izzie also gives a blush and two freckles layers. The hardest part about all of this, is choosing which combo of tattoos to use! Izzie always works hard to please her customers and she does just that. There is nothing more I could ask fpr. I highly suggest you try on a demo of 'Elena' ASAP!
Last, but certainly not least...  Truth Hawks just released two more amazing hair styles. For this post, I chose a stunning up-do called, 'Soleil'. This hair is styled to perfection and is also not mesh. It just goes to show that hair does not have to always be mesh to look absolutely lovely. In fact, one of the things I love most about Truth's hair, is that he knows which styles work best with mesh and which ones look better with regular prims. Sometimes, he even uses a combination of both! So, please go check-out Truth's latest releases and try on some demos.

Molichino at Vintage Fair

Vintage Fair 2012 is still going strong and their are tons of gorgeous exclusive creations to be found. One of my favorites is the 'Jaci Dress', from Aurelia Chauveau of MOLiCHiNO. I just love how this gown is long, slinky and just barely grazes the floor. It exudes sensuality with the strapless and low-cut bodice. I can not help but feel sexy and glamorous in this STUNNING creation! The 'Jaci Dress' comes in a lot fabulous colors. You can choose a solid tone or beautiful and graduated fade, like I am wearing in the following images. I have to say that Aurelia's mesh creations are amazing and the quality is quite high! They are so well textured and wonderfully executed. I always have such a weak spot for her lovely creations. You simply must get over to Vintage Fair and try on a demo!
I also wanted to mention that I am wearing the latest skin from Lara Hurley, called 'Claudia'. She is absolutely gorgeous! Her skin is luminous and has the most perfectly placed beauty mark. The lips are glossy and pouty. The body is beautifully rendered, as well. Please stay tuned for a full review. 'Claudia' is also available at Vintage Fair , so please do yourself a favor and try on demo!

Suri and I Go Vintage in Baiastice!

Vintage Fair is back again! This is one of my favorite events, so I am really excited to be involved again. Keira Seerose, along with her fabulous CHIC ManagementTeam, really did an awesome job. The venue spans across three SIMs, which are filled of some of the best creators on the grid. The super talented Cory Edo (of Trompe Loeil ), created the build, which you have to see even if you are not buying anything. But, trust me, you will not be able to resist spending a few lindens. I also wanted to give a special thanks to the Vintage Fair sponsors, who helped make this event possible. This includes: Purple Moon Creations, GizzA, -Belleza-, Indyra Orginals, Trompe Loeil, Auxilliary (Aura), Cheeky Pea, oOo Studios and ColdLogic. Be sure to check them out!
For my first post, I wanted to feature one of my all time favorite designers, who is truly a classic - Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice. Her creations are always beautiful and so well crafted. I truly fell in love with her all mesh Vintage Fair exclusives that consist of gorgeous halter tops with a flared trim and a matching pencil skirts. Both pieces are made of silk-like texture and are so slinky and glamorous. LOVE!
Since I really wanted to create a great first post for Vintage Fair 2012, I grabbed my good friend and blogging buddy, Suriko Leimes of The Bunneh Files. Not only is she an amazing friend, but she is a uber talented blogger, photographer and creator. She just opened-up a new store called (flaunt), which specializes in gorgeous tattoos. You must go there and take took around.
So, enough of my babbling and on with the pics and the credits. Here is your LM to Baiastice at Vintage Fair:

FAIL!


Grrrr...  I was not going to do this post for the end of the July cycle of Collabor88 , because I had found out that it was over earlier than I had planned. Actually, I had wanted to do this post on a couple days ago, but it took me until late last night to finish, because I am having serious issues with SL. I don't know if it is SL, my connection or possibly something wrong with my new gaming laptop. This is basically what has been going on:

- I constantly crash (people of my friends list must love this)
- Mesh takes for ever to rez (if it does rez)
- I almost always have to clear my cache before I log or I will not be able to log in.
- I crash when I teleport anywhere. I have to log in directly to each SIM I want to access
- My notecards are not saving and uploading.  So, unless I double check it, I run the risk of sending out a blank one.
- I am usually a ball of mist until most of my inventory loads. Plus, my inventory takes forever to start loading. It stays at approximately 800 items for what seems like an eternity. The fact that I have an insanely large inventory does not help matters either

I hate to complain on my blog, but this has been making it almost impossible to get anything done! Let alone take pics and post them. I am soooo FRUSTRATED! I am submitting a ticket to LL, but since I use a TPV (Firestorm), I don't think they will help me.
Now that I went off on tangent, I forgot what I was originally going to say. Oh yes, I decided to post creations from the July cycle of Collabor88, even though I had found out the doors had closed by the time I posted my pics on Flickr. But, I had spent two days on these pics, so I am going to post. These images should look like I spent two days on them, but they do not. They are awful due to all the trouble. I know a lot of these items are event exclusives, but most can be found in the designer's mainstore soon. You just may not be able to get them in colors that were made specifically for July's 'BLEACHED' theme or the great price.
Even though the July cycle is closed, the August cycle is opening tomorrow, which is the 8th. And, in case you did know, it is also Collabor88's one year anniversary! I can't believe it has already been year that I have been blogging this fabulous event! I am so honored to be a part of such an amazing team of incredible content creators and talented bloggers. I often wonder if they made a mistake, when I was asked to blog for this event. LOL! I just wanted to give a special thanks to Drinkinstein Sorbet and her awesome team - Jezibell Thorne, Sophia Harlow and octagons Yazimoto (forgive me, if I missed anyone). Thank you for making such a wonderful event possible and may there be many more years of beautiful and innovative creations!
Please be sure to check-out Collabor88's new collection tomorrow. The theme is 'Baroque' and the colors are just yummy. Here is your LM to Collabor88:

Last Day for July Cyle of Collabor88

Sadly, the July cycle of Collabor88 is coming to an end. There are so many AMAZING creations to be found, so you MUST go check it out before it is over. On a happier note, the one year Anniversary of Collabor88 is on August 8th! I can't believe it has already been one year that Collabor88 has been around. Drinkinstein Sorbet , Jezibell Thorne, Sophia Harlow and octagons Yazimoto have done a fabulous job of presenting the best creators in the grid at this very special event. So, thank you all!
For this post I decided to feature two adorable designs that you can find at July's Collabor88 from Charming Meiler of ::{u.f.o}::. I absolutely adore her creations! These are just so perfect for Summer! She has a lovely and casually chic, Summer dress, called 'in the ocean air'. And also an uber cute ruffled bikini, which is called the 'puripuri bikini'. Both creations are all mesh, so you definitely want to try on a demo. Here is you LM for Collabor88:

So Bizaare!

If you have noticed lately, my pics have been lacking in creativity. I have been suffering from a massive case of blogger's block. So, I went to look for my muse or something that may inspire me. Well, along came the perfect head piece, from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. I am not really supposed to show this creation yet (aka the 'Bizarre flower headpiece'), since it is for the August cycle Collabor88 and does not start until the 9th. And, I know how people do not like when 'yet-to-be released-items' are shown way in advance. However, I just could not resist wearing it for this post, since I LOVED it so much!
wetcat Flux, of WetCat Poses, also helped me out by generously sending me some of her AMAZING poses. I am a serious pose snob and her poses are so well designed and natural looking. She sells wonderful couple poses and sets as well. If you use and appreciate poses as much as I do, then I must insist that you go down and check-out her store!
Another element that helped me out with this post, were some new windlights. I normally use my own or Chic Aeon's. However, I have heard so much positive hype regarding Gogo's, of JUICYBOMB.COM, new 'Studio Windlight Settings' that I had to download them and check them out for myself! Not to mention, Gogo does not edit her pics and they always look so perfectly beautiful! For a person's pics to look that fabulous, while remaining untouched, then they have to know what they are doing. Especially when it comes to lighting! Suffice it to say, I loved all of her windlights and decided on using this blue toned windlight called 'Mela the Space Queen'. Granted, these were made for studio use and I have only used them in my studio thus far. I will check-out them out 'inworld' and let you know which one's that work well in that environment too. Unfortunately, many windlights that create an amazing effect in a studio, do not work well 'inworld'. All of JUICYBOMB.COM - Studio Windlights can be found here for download:  http://juicybomb.com/2012/07/16/juicybomb-com-studio-windlight-settings/ There are instructions for loading them into your viewer and also unedited examples of each windlight for you to see.
Please take a look at my the pic and the credits for more amazing finds!
Btw, this image is edited, but I did not alter the basic foundation of the skin, clothes, hair and accessories. If  I do, I will denote what I have done ^^
