Catching-up with Kae! Featuring October Collabor88!

It has obviously been awhile since my last post! And let me just say,  it was a little difficult getting started again. I felt like I had forgot everything! So I figured that the best way to kick things off, was to grab one my closest SL friends, who could provide me with extra encouragement and fun! The super talented Ms. Kaelyn Alecto served not only as great model, but also a cheerleader. Cheering me on, since I was lacking a little bit in confidence. She also served as a great source inspiration! 

The October Round of Collabor88 is absolutely amazing and so much fun! The theme is called, Motel Spoppy! Think of Bate's Motel, or any other classic and creepy vintage motel, in shades of navy, muted purples, green, steel blue and beige! So Kae and I did our best to show off just a few of these incredible event exclusives!

I absolutely fell in love with Maylee Oh's, of The Secret Store, Anita Empire Dress. I love the doll like style with a delicate lace trim on the sleeves and a super cute ribbon belt! Kaelyn is wearing this extremely adorable Darling Dress from Tres Blah, which is has a similar girly style to mine. 

Kae and I also wore a couple of awesome hair styles that can be found at this round of Collabor88. I am wearing Bubbles Clawtooth's brilliant Scream Queen do. I love the knife effect! Kae is wearing this seriously cute Pussycat (mask included) style from Lamb Bellic of lamb!

Please make sure you demo both of the dresses and hair at Collabor88 before the Oct cycle ends on November 6th!

Shyla Diggs of -Belleza- finally released the full line of her Grace skin! Yay!  I could not help but wear this fabulous new skin for my post. Plus, I am also wearing Belleza's beautiful new Venus Mesh Body! Well, I know it is not totally new, but it is new to me and I LOVE it! Please stay tuned for a full reviews on both Belleza's Grace skin and Venus Mesh Body!

So what are you waiting for? Make sure run down and grab these awesome Collabor88 exclusives before the round ends on November 6th!

Please make sure you also head on over to the -Belleza Mainstore- in order to demo their new Grace skin line and Venus Mesh Body!

Summer Exclusives from Belleza!

The super talented Shyla Diggs, of -Belleza-, has been very busy creating gorgeous event exclusives for this year's Summerfest and June cycle of The Liaison Collaborative. For both of these events, she brought back two of my all time favorite -Belleza- skins: Nina and Ria.

Nina comes 4 beautiful summer inspired make-ups and skin tones that will be available at Summerfest 2014. Unfortunate, Summerfest 2014 doesn't start until the 22nd of June, so please stay tunes for a LM. Shyla  included a special 'Sunburn' tattoo with this skin, which I absolutely adore. She also included: freckles, moles and gloss tattoos. This amazing hairstyle, which is called Boardwalk Breeze, is an Arcade exclusive from hair diva Bubbles Clawtooth of Clawtooth. 

Shyla also created an extra special version of her Ria skin line for this month's The Liaison Collaborative. She is available is 4 lovely make-up and skin tones. Make sure you demo them all!

The hair is another seriously cute  Arcade hair exclusive from Kavar Cleanslate of Exile, called London. She comes with a pair over-sized sunglasses with texture-change hUD. So make sure you try your luck and when you favorite!

The starfish adorned earrings and necklace are June Collabor88 exclusives from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo, which you absolutely can NOT miss!

Livy

There are so many gorgeous new skin releases on the grid lately. One of my favorites (well they are technically two skins) are called Liv (I posted about Liv here) and Livy, which are Arcade Gacha Event exclusives from the talented aida Ewing of Glam Affair. Both skins are absolutely stunning and very similar. Livy has a slightly pouter and glossy lip, but both are equally beautiful and hard to resist.

Both skins come in 10 gorgeous make-ups and three lovely skin tones (Arctic, Asia and India). There is even a RARE version in bare, so make sure you play to win all!

For both images, I gathered up some of my favorite accessories from various events this month. For the first image, I had this brilliant Akali Headdress, which is a FaMESHed exclusive from Amberly Boccaccio of Glam Affair. There are several different styles in beautiful summer shades. I also had this fabulous Meersand Hair from M4ri1yn Magic of  ~Tableau Vivant~ , which is a June Collabor88 exclusive. The Magdalene necklace that I am wearing in the first image was created by AvaGardner Kungler of Kunglers Extra from this round of L'accessoires. 

For the second image, I chose a stunning Rose hatpin and matching Pirate earrings from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo for June's Collabor88 . Both items are texture change via HUD, so you can match them with just about anything! The hair is one of the latest from Truth Hawks, called Honey. The delicate Melly necklace is from Caelyn Hancroft of Cae. This necklace is also texture change via HUD and allows you to change the metal, pearls and gem stones. I think that about covers it. I have been really busy lately and am bit brain dead at the moment. So I hope I didn't forget anything... Here are your LMs and Credits:

May Collabor88 Perfect Pin-ups

May Collabor88 is here and well underway! Once again, the Collabor88 creators managed to wow me with their amazing themed creations. Just when I think they can not top the previous rounds, they prove me wrong! LOL! The theme for May is called, Milkshakes and Turntables, which is definitely one of my favorite themes to date! What exactly is Milkshakes and Turntables? It's a perfect mix of late 50's to early 60's tailored styles and kitsch with a rockabilly edge. The color palette includes shades of pink, aqua, mint, red and black.

Azure Electricteeth of Tee*fy created the following look, which sums up Collabor88's May theme perfectly! I am totally in love with her Unbuttoned Knotted Shirt, as well as these High-Waisted Skinny Jeans. As always, Azure's creations are textured and rendered to perfection, making this ensemble even more irresistible! By the way, the Unbuttoned Knotted Shirt comes with a HUD, so you can change the color/pattern of the inside top. You can also chose to wear the shirt without the inside top.
These seriously sexy Moxi Heels from Darling Monday of fri.day are to DIE FOR! I love the glamorous pin-up girl feel of these peep-toe heels, which were made to be worn with Slink's AvEnhance Feet (High). You will definitely want to grab these shoes in every color available!

The super talented Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo, created the perfect accessories to go with all your Collabor88 exclusives. She made these fabulous Mary Bow Bandanas that come in a ton of iconic patterns and prints. Gyo also designed these gorgeous Mary Swallow Earrings, which add a bit of rockabilly kitsch. Be sure to check-out her whole Mary Collection at May's Collabor88.
Speaking of awesome Collabor88 accessories, Polyester Partridge of (Yummy), created this delicious Cherry Necklace, as well as a whole line of other fruity necklaces and colorful baubles.

aida Ewing of Glam Affair, created another STUNNING new skin for Collabor88, called Coral! She is available in 8 beautiful make-ups and in a choice of 3 skin tones (Arctic, Asia and America). Each make-up comes in 8 different brow colors (embedded into the skin), as well as no brow option too! Do yourself a favor and demo this glamorous new skin ASAP!
Lamb Bellic of lamb, came out with this amazing retro inspired hairstyle, called Peggy Sue. And yes, it is a Collabor88 exclusive too! She created two more May themed styles, which you MUST check out right away!
I think I covered everything... So here are your credits and LMs:

One gorgeous look that you simply must not miss, is this Wifey Corset & Shirt and Mika High-Waisted Trousers from Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice.

I really adore the polished silk textured blouse and bow, which is nicely cinched with a corset. Btw, the blouse and bow come with a texture change HUD, so you can color them to work with just about anything. 

Sissy also created these gorgeous Anna Pumps. I can never have enough 'Mary Jane' styled heels! The Anna Pumps also come with texture/color change HUD for the stocking. You can choose from a ton of different patterns and colors.

Intergalactic!

I really need to make this post as short as possible. I have carpal tunnel syndrome and it is killing me! LOL!
The February round of Collabor88 is literally out of this world! As I mentioned in a previous a post, all the designer's did such an amazing job with this "Supernova" theme.
One of my favorite pieces is this Mirte Structural Dress from Hervé Faenzo of Faenzo. This super sexy dress has the most incredible geometrical cutouts that are in all the right places. The slinky texture is even more fabulous and moves beautifully with your avatar. This is definitely one dress you simply must demo ASAP!

Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo collaborated with Faenzo for February's Collabor88 and created this fabulous Mirte necklace, bangle and earrings. The gorgeous bold style works perfectly with the Mirte Structural Dress or any outfit that calls for an amazing statement piece. It comes in gold, black, silver and bronze metals. There is also a matching mask and mesh back tattoo!

Another round of The Arcade just started and obviously there are a ton of 'must have' items that you will want to win! One of these items, is this gorgeous hair from Bubbles Clawtooth of Clawtooth. It is called Fancy Free and I absolutely adore it! Bubbles has been creating the most beautiful styles lately and this is yet another style that he went all out on.
Last and certainly not least, Hart Larsson of PXL Creations created this stunning JADE "Love Edition" skin. This skin is a gift for PXL VIP Group members, so make sure you run and grab it! If you are not already in the VIP Group then you really should join. There is an initial join fee of 250L, but it is well worth it. Group membership allows you to use the VIP room teleport, as well as receive the following VIP group benefits: 10% extra discount on any purchase (where applicable), access to special releases (limited time) and also exclusive VIP sales!

Keeping It Casual Chic

I have been trying to keep up with all the amazing events lately. February has been a huge month for events! I would  actually like to start off my post with one item that is not an event exclusive, but gorgeous non-the-less. It is the fabulous Saoya Dress from Marry Lemur of Overhigh. I love the soft cashmere textured feel to this dress. I also adore the relaxed and generous boat neck top that is tapered into sleek and sexy mini dress. This is one dress that you simply must demo!

Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo created this fabulous Mabel Necklace and Mable Earrings in gold for GizzA Creation's "Love is in the Air" event, which is going on until the 28th. So please make sure go and check it out before it ends!

Last Day For January Collabor88 Featuring Maitreya

I always like to save some of the best event items for last. My favorite creation for this round of Collabor88 has to be Maitreya's Vintage Lace Gown...

This gown is absolutely STUNNING! Onyx always puts so much effort into rendering life-like textures and creating top notch meshes. This Gown can be worn is many different ways too. It can be worn as a simple strapless gown sans lace overlay. Onyx also created a matching Vintage Collar and Vintage Pearl Necklace, which completes this ensemble perfectly. You can not help but feel like a total diva, when wearing this phenomenal gown. So if you have not bought or demoed this yet, make sure run and do it NOW!

Bubbles Clawtooth of Clawtooth, created this super sultry and sexy hair that goes perfectly with Onyx's Gown. This tousled side-swept hair is called, Pink Flamingos. This style should look familiar, since I posted Bubble's Female Trouble hair, in a previous post here. The only difference is that Pink Flamingos does not have Female Trouble whispy bangs. I love both styles equally, so demo them before January's Collabor88 comes to a close!

Here are your LMs and Credits....

Nothing Burns Like The Cold

It's been one crazy Winter. One week warm and the next two week freezing. Everyone has the flu and is laying low, so I am trying to make the best of it. At least the days are getting longer now.
I am going to make this post quick, despite the fact that there are so many lovely items to talk about...

The super talented NyuNyu Kimono of NYU, created this super adorable shift dress for Seasons Story. I love the clean lines and minimalist look of this piece, which NyuNyu is so famous for. It just goes to show that beautifully rendered mesh and great textures speak volumes.

Nina Helix of .Birdy., made this lovely new skin that I am wearing. It is called Savannah and is a Seasons Story exclusive too. Nina also created those uber cute bunny coffee mugs behind me. They are called Bunny Cafe and are an OMGacha exclusive this month! Nina makes such amazing mesh items and you will definitely want to collect all of these Bunnies! They are only 75L per play, so make sure you try your luck!

The talented Gyorgyna Larnia finally created a new release for the LaGyo Mainstore! It is this stunning feather necklace that I am wearing. This dramatic Mollie Necklace has a bohemian feel to it, yet still makes a bold statement, I am really in love this necklace, so make sure you check it out ASAP!

Uff! I know it is hard to see, but Caelyn Hancroft created the shorter necklace. It has disk shaped pendant with a tree in it. Not only is it perfectly rendered, but it comes with a HUD that lets you fully customize the colors. I will have to wear it again to show you. Caelyn is really making a name for herself by designing some of the most beautiful jewelry on the grid. The necklace is another Seasons Story exclusive this month!

 Isla Gealach of Cheeky Pea has been very busy lately, making amazing furniture and home decor items for several events this month. One of my favorite items is this Roux Coffee Station for The Neighborhood. Obviously, I love coffee and anything related to it. However, this is the perfect addition to one's virtual kitchen. Especially when it is cold outside (like it has been in RL), since it adds lots warmth and charm. 

I think I covered almost everything. Please forgive me if I forgot anything. Here are the LMs and Credits:
