Lucy In The Sky

I am still sooooooo behind! So many events, so little time! I had been in a bit of rut when it comes to ideas for my posts. I had this gorgeous, as well as brilliant, mesh 'E-Motion Dress' from Maylee Oh of The Secret Store, All of Maylee's creations are incredible, but this dress... Well, let's just say I was blown away. It has this gorgeous cumulus cloud design, which actually rotates within the dress! The dress is Designers United 5 event exclusive, so you should grab it before this event over on October 4th. I really wanted to come up with a great idea for this post, in order to show off just how wonderful it is .Unfortunately, static images can't show you it's beautiful animation details. Luckily, Nati Williams, who is one of my favorite bloggers and {Imeka!} pose maker, made a video featuring this dress and a couple other items from Designers United 5. If you want to see what I am talking about, please visit Nati's blog Inspire You Look HERE: http://inspireyourlook.com/45/ . You should check-out Nati's blog anyway, because she is super talented and has such great style! Here is my first shot of the dress too:

The Secret Store - E-Motion Dress for DU5, Glam Affair - Lucy & Exil Sugar High for The Atticv3

I search of ideas for this post, I went to the Designers United 5 event. OMG! It is seriously AMAZING! The theme for this year's Designer United, is 'Surrealism'. The combination of an awesome theme, mixed with my favorites designers (almost all ), made for the most fabulous creations. It is needless for me to say that with the onset of mesh almost any idea is possible. I think I bought almost everything there. All the items there are exclusive ( reasonably priced too), which means that they will not be sold after the event is over. I know all events say their items are exclusive and then you see them in the designer's mainstore after it is over (which is great for bloggers who are behind). However, these items are truly unique event exclusives and you definitely do not want to miss the chance to buy them!

The Secret Store - E-Motion Dress - Clouds for DU5 , Exile::Sugar High & Glam Affair - Lucy - Europa -10A

The Trapeze Telephone Pole is a Designers United 5 exclusive from Nuwiggles. It can be used a pose prop or just decor for your home. I like using it for both. If you are a photographer, I really suggest buying this prop. It has been the source of  inspiration for so many great pictures. 
The uber cute Mochi Bunny that I am wearing was created by Anya Ohmai of !Ohmai for Designers United 5. The 'Mochi Bunnies' are actuality part of a set that comes with bunnies that you can wear and rez. Anya Ohmai always comes up with such a adorable and lovely ideas. 

Glam Affair - Lucy - Europa -10A & Exile Sugar High for The Attic

The skin that I am wearing is from one of the gorgeous news skin lines by aida Ewing of -Glam Affair-, called 'Lucy'. I am in LOVE with this skin! aida created such beautiful make-ups for Lucy and also tons of options! There are a total of 12 make-ups (as well as a bare make-up) that are available in 6 skin tones. Each make-up comes with 3 nose options (on a tattoo layer), a matte lip tattoo, 3 glossy lip tattoos, freckle tattoos, and 7 brow colors (embedded into the skin). This skin will fit just about any shape, so go and try on a demo ASAP!
Kavar Cleanslate of  :Exile::, created this seriously cute hair style for the Attic event. I love the whimsical girly feel to this hair, which also suits this dress perfectly! It comes with the texture change flowers that I am wearing too! I think tomorrow is the last day for this round of My Attic, so RUN and grab it!
My eye guy, Ikon Innovia came out with a new style of eyes for this round of the The Boutique! They are called 'Perspective Eyes' and are obviously stunning! They also come in just about every color imaginable. If you have not tried Ikon's eyes yet, I highly recommend that you do. I swear that you will never want to wear any other eyes again!
rockstarroo GossipGirl of [Atooly], created the adorable 'Lady Penguin Necklace' and the dainty 'Heart Charm Necklace' that I am wearing. You can find such charming accessories at [Atooly]. rockstarroo's jewelry works with just about any look, especially if you want something delicate, beautiful and understated. 
I think I covered almost everything. I hope I did, because I am running out words and my head is starting to hurt. LOL. Here  are your LMs and credits:

HAIR!

Ok, as promised, I decided to do one HUGE hair post! As most of you know,the last 2 months have been seriously crazy for me. I had been quite ill, my laptop was overheating and dying, and I am also still in recovery mode. There have been so many wonderful new hair releases in SL, as well as improvements in textures and colors. One of the biggest new trends now that I love, is creating HUDs to color hair. Not only does it save tons of space in your inventory, but it allows the designer to create more color options. Kavar Cleanslate of  :Exile:: has been using a HUD system for over few months now. Truth hawks and Tabata Jewell of Vanity Hair , just started releasing hair that is colored via HUD and I love it. Ok, enough talk about HUDs and let me show you some hair. I also have some beautiful new skins to show to you as well.

I guess I will started with the latest releases from Kavar Cleanslate :;Exile:: (FYI: I love all of these hair designers equally, so there is no specific importance to the order):

Belleza Leila for TLC & Exile New Releases

I am in LOVE with Exile's new long flowing hair styles! They are just too sexy words! I wore them with Belleza's latest skin line, called 'Leila'! This is definitely my favorite Belleza skin since Ava .These lovely make-ups are all Boutique exclusives. There are a choice of 4 make-ups (I am showing 3 out of 4), which are available in all the current Belleza-skin tones. FYI: the full release of  the Leila skin line will be available in the new -Belleza- mainstore. So stayed tuned for pics.

Glam Affair - Lucy & TRUTH HAIR

The next group of brilliant new hair releases that I have to show you are from TRUTH HAIR. I love the delicate feminine feel to all 3 of these hair styles, which go perfectly with all my new Fall clothes. Now that Truth's hair is colored via HUD, you will never have trouble finding the perfect shade of (insert hair color here).
I am wearing one of the latest new skin's from -Glam Affair-, called 'Lucy'. OMG! I LOVE LUCY! The skin is luminous, the make-ups are stunning and the lips aret perfect!

Vanity Hair & Izzies - Kaelyn Skin peach

Tabata's Jewell's (of Vanity Hair) new releases are absolutely fabulous! She basically revamped her whole hair line. She is now using mainly rigged mesh and an awesome HUD to color her hair. Why is the HUD so great? Well, besides being able to use it color your hair with her existing colors/textures, you can also use it to tint your hair any way you want! It basically gives you an endless selection of color! Now, as far as Tabata's newest styles go, they are all amazing and all very different. From beautiful braided boho styled tresses to vampy fashionsita waves, she has something for everyone!
The skin I am wearing is one of the many new releases from Izzie Button, called 'Kaelyn'. Hmm.., I wonder how she came up with that name? LOL! This skin is really one of Izzie's best skins to date. The features and details of this skin are just gorgeous!
So, with that all said, go buy some hair and some skin! Here are your credits and LMs:

Falling Forward

I think my laptop issues are fixed now and I feeling a little better. I am very behind though. I know much of what I am showing you has already been seen. However, since I love these creations, I will show them anyway. Most of the creation's I am wearing can be found at this month's Collabor88!
Harry Hyx of ISON  really went all out for this month's round of Collabor88. He basically came out with a whole new Autumn line. He created gorgeous opened pea coats, delicate pleated shorts, soft wool sweaters, beautiful over-sized leather clutches and super sexy riding boots. For this post, I chose to wear all these items, except for the sweater, which you will see in an upcoming post!

ISON for C88 and TRUTH Juniperr for Season's Story

 I couldn't help but wear Azure Electricteeth's (of Tee*fy) lovely 'Turtle Neck Basic Sweater' with this ensemble. This sweater is truly a wardrobe MUST! It comes with several wear options, which include two specifically made for layering! I love mesh, but I hate that it can be difficult to layer. With the colder weather approaching, you can see where this can be especially troublesome. This sweater works with everything!

ISON & Teefy for C88 and TRUTH Juniper for Seasons Story - 2

Did I mention just how hot ISON's 'Cult Riding Boots' are? Harry Hyx has this wonderful ability to create clothes that are both smart and sexy. They hug the female form in just right places; showing just enough, but not too much. You really must grab all these items, especially at Collabor88's amazing prices. 

ISON & Teefy for C88 and TRUTH Juniper for Seasons Story - 3

Truth is back and with a lot more colors! After almost a month of no new releases, he came through with this gorgeous new hat adorned style, called 'Juniper', for FaMESHed. This style is not the only new thing Truth has created. His hair now colored via HUD. Since the HUD holds many more shades per color pack, including his 'root' options, I doubt you will have any problem finding the perfect color, I had heard he was making this change, like so many of SL's hair designers, but was not sure when it would happen. I am sure you discovered this by now, since he has released more hairstyles. Anyway, I am really excited about this change and glad it is finally here! Now my biggest problem is deciding what shade to wear! Btw, I think I will do a post devoted to all the recent hair releases, since I had not been able to blog much this month. There have been so many amazing new hair releases from all my favorite virtual stylists. 

PXL JADE SK & TRUTH Juniper

PXL Creations has been having sale on their whole JADE skin line for VIP group members ! You have a couple more days to grab this beautiful skin for 30 % off! If you are not already PXL VIP Group member, then you really should think abut joining. Yes, there is an initial join fee of 250L, but it is worth it! PXL VIP Group members receive the following benefits: 10% of all purchases, group gifts and special sales. PXL has also moved to a temporary location, while the SIM and mainstore are being rebuilt!
Speaking of new mainstores, -Glam Affair- has finally re-opened with their brand store! In celebration of their grand re-opening, they released 2 gorgeous new skin lines and huge accessory line! You can find the '50s  SunGlasses' that I am wearing at the new store in tons of yummy colors! Be sure to stay tuned for new skin reviews too! 
Oh! Before I forget, while you are at Collabor88, be sure to check-out all of Maxi Gossamer's jewelry. She has wonderful fall inspired creations with a raw and earthy feel to them. Big stones, wooden beads and metallic leaves make up this awesome collection. 
Be sure to grab this cute and delicate maple leaf pendant, aka the 'Fall Necklace',  from  [Atooly]! It is an 'Autumn Effect Hunt' item, so if you can find it, it is yours to keep! Happy Hunting!

Glam Affair's Shanna for C88

I am still in catch-up in mode! Unfortunately, since I am THE MOST UNLUCKY person in the world (well, I do exaggerate a bit), my laptop has been overheating. So, I had to the following skin review in 2 parts. I snapped the first 6 skins before my laptop shutdown. In fear that it would shut down again, I decided to just snap 6 remaining pics. Normally, I would do a full re-take of all 12 images, since I prefer all the pics to be of the same angle position. I hope you do not mind.
Anyway, aida Ewing of -Glam Affair- introduced a beautiful new skin for this month's Collabor88! Her name is 'Shanna' and she is available in 12 different make-ups in the Europa skin tone. Actually, there are 13 make-ups, since a 'bare' skin option is included with each make-up. So, you are basically getting 2 gorgeous skins with several brow color options for a very nice price! This definitely one opportunity you do NOT want to miss!


Glam Affair - Shanna ( Europa ) 01-03

Glam Affair - Shanna ( Europa ) 04-06


Glam Affair - Shanna ( Europa ) 07-09

Glam Affair - Shanna ( Europa ) 10-12

'Shanna's' make-ups vary from more artistic avant garde type make-ups to fashion forward everyday make-ups. As always, aida's facial features are delicate with beautiful detailing. The body, also reflects aida's careful attention to details, with a nicely defined stomach, neckline and legs. 
I also have to announce that for grand re-opening of the Glam Affair SIM and Mainstore, aida has just released a couple new full skin lines, which are amazing! So, please stay tuned for upcoming posts featuring these fabulous new skins, as well.  

Glam Affair - Shanna ( Europa ) 05 (Black ) & PosESioN for L'accessoires

When I was putting together my look for the portrait shot, I really had no idea what I was going do. More, like, I had nothing really planned yet. I decided to go with a sleek modern look. I absolutely adore the 'Yoon' hair that I am wearing, which is from Morphine Janick of [monso].This sleek, short and chin length blunt cut looked so great with this skin and make-up. A new round of L'accessories is here again, so I could not help but add a couple of this month's exclusive limited edition items to the mix. Once such item, is this brilliant 'Osiris' head piece is from Dahriel Resident of  *PosESioN*. I also chose this wonderful 'Itzel Statement Necklace' from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. This necklace was a L'accessories exclusive last month, but it should be in the LaGyo Mainstore soon, if it is not already. 

Glam Affair - Shanna for C88 and *PosESioN* [Jewelry] Osiris & 22769 ~ [accessories] Seconds Clutch for l'accessoires and Emery and LaGyo

As far as the rest of my look goes, I wanted to follow suit with sleek black pieces. I had this uber chic 'Gatsby Dress' from sunami Beck of Emery. It was a Collabor88 exclusive last month, which I really had wanted to blog, but had ran out of time. Thankfully, since most of the Collabor88 designs can be found in the designer's Mainstore after the cycle is over, I can still post it. I seriously love the simple and elegant look to this dress. The clean lines, short hemline and amazing use of texture, make this dress irresistible. 
To top off  look, I added another September L'accessories exclusive, which is this sensational 'Seconds Clutch' in a wonderful brocade texture. This clutch was created by the talented Paco Pooley of 22769. It is available in a ton of yummy colors and a couple of different textures too.
So, with that said, here are your LMs and Credits:

Indian Summer

The last couple of days have been super hot! I figured I may as well enjoy it, since much cooler weather is just around the corner. I decided put together an outfit, which reflects these warm and humid days.
However, before I start talking about my ensemble, I have more skin to show you. Shyla Diggs of -Belleza-, created more make-ups of her gorgeous new skin "Leila" for this round Collabor88. "Leila" is my new favorite -Belleza- skin. You can see that Shyla put a lot of work into this skin. The features are beautifully rendered and the skin tones are yummy.

-Belleza- Leila Med for C88

"Leila" comes in 4 different Autumn inspired make-ups and is available in all the-Belleza- skin tones. And, since it is a Collabor88 exclusive, you can grab this skin for a very nice price! So, do yourself a favor and demo it now!


I am sure you notice the fabulous hair I am wearing. It is called "Serendipty" and it is one of the latest releases from Tabata Jewell of Vanity Hair. I love the fact that all of Tabata's latest new hair styles are made of rigged mesh and come in 3 different sizes (small, medium and large). She also created new hair textures with a lot more color options! The hair color is changed via HUD, which has a tinting options too! Basically, the color options are endless. The HUDs come in a ton of color packs - Dark Browns, Light Browns, Dark Blondes, Light Blondes, A Glam Pack, etc... The shades in the "Glam Pack" are completely new and are made up various color fades, which I adore. I am really impressed with all the hard work Tabata has done in order to update her hair. They are so lovely and I am looking forward to all of her new releases.You must drop by Vanity Hair and check-out all the new hair styles!


Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice created this gorgeous "Yse Maxi Skirt" and "Mjrie Top". Both of these pieces are FaMESHed exclusives this month! They come in ton of brilliant colors and can be mixed and matched in many different ways.


The crystal adorned jewelry that I am wearing, is from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. They are all part of her "Valma Collection" for this month's Collabor88. I really admire the organic and earthy feel of this collection. All the items are texture change too! This is one collection you do not want to to miss!

Birdy Skins for Chapter Four

I basically stopped doing full skin "reviews", because they take me FOREVER to finish. I am talking days! I have no idea why I am so slow. So, I am trying a new approach and am trying it again. My next couple of posts will be all about skin.
Speaking of skin... One of the newest skins that have really caught my attention, are Birdy Skins. nina Helix, the designer behind Birdy Skins, creates the most beautiful hand drawn skins. They have a lovely and soft ethereal feel to them, not unlike the skins from -tres blah-. Since the skin is hand drawn and not completely photo-sourced, you will find a few minor imperfections in some of the features. Personally, I find these small imperfections, the most charming part about these skins. Nina's skins are also extremely affordable. In fact, I think she needs to charge more for these high quality creations. For this round of Chapter Four, you can find her new "Ingrid" skin for just 99L per make-up!

.Birdy. Ingrid Skin ~Pure~ for The Chapter Four

There are a total of 4 make-ups , which come in her 'pure' skin tone, that come with several options. Each make-up has 3 different types of shading embedded into the skin - Dew, Matte and Regular. There are also 5 brow options that are embedded into the skin - Bare, Blonde, Brown, Red and Black. There is a gloss tattoo as well.

Birdy Ingrid for Chapter 4

I highly recommend going over to Chapter Four and demoing this skin. I also suggest checking out Nina's Birdy Skins Mainstore too. 
I am so happy that Kavar Cleanslate of Exile is releasing ahir again! He has definitely been missed. This month, he is participating in 3 different events with a gorgeous exclusive style for each. In the above pics, I am wearing his FaMESHed exclusive, called "Where We Belong". It is a fabulous side bun/ponytail hybrid with long wavy locks. A definite MUST have!
Because I was barely here for August, I did not get a chance to blog Daphne Klossovsky's (of HANDverk), "Zelda Necklace and Earrings". They were an August Collabor88 Exclusive, but they are available in the HANDverk Mainstore now. Daphne has an amazing eye for detail and creates the most brilliant pieces. I aimpley adore this art deco inspired set, which is available incomes in a ton of colors.
So with that said, here are your credits and LMs, so you can go DEMO and BUY!

Beautiful, But Late

Do to health reasons and other RL stuff, I had not been around SL much for the last 6 weeks (give or take). So, suffice it to say, I was late meeting my deadline to post these pics for the August cycle of Collabor88 . However, since I had taken these pictures and I was so in love with all of August's creations, I figured I would post them anyway. I do believe that almost all the Collabor88 exclusives will be in the designer's mainstore. So, let me post these pics and credits really quick. Btw, aida Ewing's (of  -Glam Affair- ) new "Katya" skin that I am wearing is too gorgeous for words!

Beautiful and Late

Azure Electricteeth (of Tee*fy) and Marie Laurderson (Milk Motion) really went out of their way to create the most lovely 20's inspired clothes and accessories. 

Beautiful & Late - 2

Gyorgyna Larnia (of  LaGyo) also out did herself with here "Helen Necklace and Bangles" . 

Late & Beautiful - 3

All of the home decor items were amazing too. Isla Gealach of Cheeky Pea and Ewan Mureaux of Conspiracy Theory, collaborated on this fabulous art deco inspired "Beresford Vanity, Clock and Wall Light". The "Beresford Collection" also includes a bed, night stand, dresser and lamp in a choice of "Razzle" or "Dazzle" color palates.

Late & Beautiful - 4

I am also in love with this "Mission Armoire" by warehousefifteendesigns Resident of Apple FallM4ri1yn Magic of  ~Tableau Vivant~, made the brilliant "Stag Chair", which comes with a choice of 2 texture changing options - via script or via HUD. The wall mirrors, framed prints, and room are all part of the "Alders Living Room in Mahogany" from The Loft.  
I think I mentioned almost everything. I am so exhausted, so please forgive me if I missed anything. I list everything in the credits anyway....
