Warm & Cozy in Hyper Culture's New 'Thick Woollen Dress'

Christensia Parkin is yet another fabulous designer, who has been hard at work creating amazing designs to make this Fall season a gorgeous one. I was really excited when I saw that Christensia had created a this 'Thick Woollen Dress' as a 'humpday special', since I have a 'thing' for sweater dresses lately. So, of course, I ran down to HYPER CULTURE to pick it up. I basically I fell in love with the dress as soon as I put it on. Christensia's expertly crafted prims move flawlessly, making for one full and cozy dress. So, you can just imagine how excited I got when I found out that she decided to do a whole line of them in 10 brilliant colors. Anyway, suffice to say, this is definitely going to be one piece that I will wear to death over the cooler months ahead. Thankfully, it now comes in more that one color and that Christensia was kind if enough to send me review copies. Muahhhhs Christensia! I wanted to show you all of the colors, but unfortunately I had trouble with black and gray rezing for me (my two favorite shades too). SL has not been kind to me lately. *LOL*. Luckily, I was able to capture the other 8. I am sure will agree that these are the perfect Fall dress.

New Releases from 'HYPER CULTURE' & Finesmith Designs

Wow! What a week! We have had a lot of amazing new releases and a lot of very cool events happening. So, of course,I have some fabulous new releases to show you. I have an incredible new dress from HYPER CULTURE and some gorgeous and very progressive jewelry from Finesmith Designs.
Christensia Parkin has just created two new beautiful lace dresses, called 'Slecna' and 'Slecna 2', to add to her best seliing 'Black Lace Collection'.They are two ultra sexy, yet elegant, black lace mini dresses that are revealing in just the right places. These designs are a bit are 'see-through', but still maintain a sense of modesty (i.e., no need to cover-up the nipples).  Plus, Christensia gives you three different wear options for the panties, so you can decide how much skin you want to show. Both pieces are absolutely divine and expertly crafted. But, then again, I would expect nothing less from Christensia.This is the perfect dress for an evening out or you can just wear the top layer with jeans and jacket for a more casual look. They are definitely two new favorite items of mine. So, enough of my babbling, so you can check of 'Slecna' for yourself.

Stunning, right? So, do yourself a favor and grab this limo down to HYPER CULTURE and take a look at these two dresses in person: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Fama%20West/158/196/24


Now with gorgeous dresses, come gorgeous jewelry. Finesmith Designs is one of the first places that comes to mind when I think of jewelry. Once again, Yula Finesmith has been hard at work, creating pieces that set the trends. Her new line of jewelry is called, 'In The Flash'. I like to think of it as, 'In The Flesh', since Yula has incorporated the idea of acupuncture needles into jewelry. Yula wanted to design something that only the physics of SL could uphold. This resulted in necklaces without chains and earring that plug right into the ear. This is definitely a first for SL and RL, at least to my knowledge, and the outcome is brilliant.

The pieces are definitely unusual, but gorgeous nonetheless. As I stated before, Yula is a designer who sets trends, not follows them. These designs are perfect examples of her exceptional work. I know you will think so too. I took the liberty of sending you a limo to Finesmith Designs: http://slurl.com/secondlife/AMITYVILLE/53/104/25
One more thing that I forgot to add in the midst of my ramblings, is that all pieces have a low ARC color/texture change script for the metals and gems. So, the possibilities are endless!

The Natasha Gown from Hyper Culture

HC - Natasha Gown (Purple Bliss)

HC - Natasha Gown - (Dark Chocolate, Moss & Ruspberry)

I am in love with new gown from Hyper Culture! Christensia Parkin always pushes the boundaries of her creativity with each new release. Her use of exotic patterns and textures in rich tones are irresistible. Christensia's hand drawn textures are nice change of pace from so many of the templates you see out there. When put on this dress, which is aka the 'Natasha Gown', I feel instantly transported to somewhere hot exotic. This is on creation that will make any woman feel gorgeous and sexy. 'Natasha' comes in 12 delicious colors, which make it impossible to a choose a favorite. I would just buy all, since I can never make-up my mind. I guess that's why my inventory has just topped off 100K. *Hangs head in shame*

At the moment, Hyper Culture's mainstore is undergoing some major changes. So it's not accessible at the moment. However, you can find this piece as well as Christensia's other fabulous creations at her Satellite store. Do you yourself a favor and take a trip down there now.

I always get excited when Christensia Parkin releases something new for Hyper Culture, since it's always something I really love. This holds true for Christensia's latest set of tights, which are adequately called, 'Cosmic Tights'.  Like so many of Christensia's other designs, these pieces come in the rich and vibrant textures that are also perfect for the upcoming fall season. The tights come in 12 different colors/patterns which are all equally gorgeous and unique in their own way. I really could not pick a favorite pattern, since they are all fabulous. So if you are anything like me, I would just buy them all. I sense these are going to be a major staple for my fall wardrobe. Thank you Christensia!

Haute Couture with HYPER CULTURE!

Pic 1: HC - Couture Collection - Trinity 

Pic 2: HC - Loose Summer Dress (Night Flowers)

I have been a long time fan of HYPER CULTURE. Well I haven't been here that long...a whopping 7 months! So when I found out that Christensia Parkin had come out with a "Couture" line, I was really excited to see what fabulous creations she had made. Luckily, thanks to Christensia's generosity, I was lucky enough to receive a review copy of "Trinity". Thank you Christensia! "Trinity" truly amazed me. The first thought that came to mind was "Jean-Paul Gaultier" a la early '90s. If any of you have seen footage of Madonna's "Blonde Ambition" tour, you can clearly see what I mean. I just love the soft, lacy and very sexy body suit that is worn over the silky pants. The asymmetric shoulder pads and hard geometric belt are a strong contrast against the soft chenille-like texture of the shrug. The silky striped pants add an extra bit of sensuality to this already smoldering number. "Trinity" is one prime example of an outfit being extremely sexy with out having to show a ton of skin. Christensia's carefully designed bodysuit hugs every curve perfectly. Her added touch of "avant garde" is not overwhelming. It is adeptly balanced out with luxurious and ultra feminine textures. "Trinity" is truly a work of art and I look forward to more "Couture" from Christensia in the future.Actually, I have heard from a few sources that this may be soon. I'm crossing my fingers.
The next piece, "loose summer dress". is not from Christensia's "Couture" line. However, I couldn't help but add it to the mix. This was a "Hump Day Happiness" deal that I grabbed on Wednesday and I LOVE it! One would think I would have enough "boho-like" dresses with empire waists, but I couldn't miss out on this. I just love the icey and exotic pattern that loosely sways with each movement. It's one piece you just can't go wrong with over the summer. So, do yourself a favor and tp on down to HYPER CULTURE and see the cool, comfortable and uber chic styles that await you. The limo is waiting: http://slurl.com/secondlife/SLeek/129/97/22

I'm in LOVE with these 2 latest releases from HYPER CULTURE: The Summer Tunic and Bloomer Pants. I adore their relaxed feel and bohemian flare. Christensia Parkin adeptly creates the "sculpted tunics" with an empire waist and drapes them in exotic patterns. The "bloomers" complete the look with a comfortable fit in rich jewel tones as well as blacks and whites.Christensia still manages to stay true to her gorgeous feminine style, by fitting these pieces to show off a woman's curves in all the right places and with just the right amount of detailing.. When wearing this number, I instantly feel alluring and sexy. The warm and curious styling just seem to make this hot summer so much cooler. I literally have not been able to stop wearing these pieces. This is a definite "must" for every girl's summer wardrobe. So what are you waiting for? Get down to HYPER CULTURE now! I sent a heavily air conditioned limo for you:
