ISON and May's Collabor88!

There are sill a few more days left of May's Collabor88, so please make sure you stop by and check-out all the amazing 50's vintage/rockabilly styles! One of my favorite ensembles from this round, is also from one of my all time favorite designers - Harry Hyx of ISON! He created this fabulous Crop Panel Tee and High Waist Pleat Skirt. Both of these flirty streamlined pieces, can be worn separately or together (like I did below), and come in nice array of prints and colors.

I could not resist wearing these super sexy Sophia Heels, which are also a May Collabor88 exclusive this month. They were created by the talented Betty Doyle of Ingenue. Like most of her recent shoe releases, there are made to be worn with Slink's mesh feet!

Since I was going with a vintage nautical themed look, I had to pair this outfit with Gyorgyna Larnia's, of LaGyo, Mary Necklace (with swallows and anchors), Mary Earrings (anchors) and Mary Bow Bandanna! Gyo's whole Mary Collection is to die for, so make sure you run and grab the whole collection before May's Collabor88 ends!

Gala Phoenix of CURIO has been releasing a ton of skin lately! For May's Collabor88, she released two sunning new skins lines. For this post, I am wearing her new Cherry skin. It comes in a ton of gorgeous skin tones and 4 yummy make-ups! It fits perfectly with May's retro theme!

Speaking of amazing retro creations, moca Loup of tram, made this brilliant hairstyle for May's Collabor88 too! In fact, she created 4 lovely styles that you must demo ASAP!

I think I covered just about everything, please forgive me if I missed something. Here are your LMs and Credits:

April Collabor88 and More!

Spring is well underway and there are a ton of AMAZING events reflecting the season this month. In fact, it has been really hard for me to keep up with all of them, since I had been away. So, I will do my best to make sure I credit all the event exclusives in this post correctly. If for some reason you can not find the item listed in the mainstore or event listed, please let me know and I will find out the correct info.
As always, my favorite monthly event is Collabor88. And, as I mentioned in the previous post, I am in LOVE with April's theme - Watercolors In Bloom!



Maylee Oh, of The Secret Store, really went all out with this theme (as she always does), creating this lovely Betsy Halter Tank and stunning Amy Highwaist Skirt. The Betsy Halter Tank is adorned with a delicate lace trimmed collar and comes with 3 wear options, which include: tucked, cropped and tunic. The Amy Highwaist Skirt is made up of a gorgeous rose brocade-like texture that is to die for! Both the tank and skirt are available in a ton of pastel colors and vivid prints that you can easily mix and match. So make sure you run and demo them ASAP!
These adorable sling-back Lily Flats are also an April Collabor88 exclusive from the talented Betty Doyle of Ingenue. These were specifically created to be worn with Slink's avatar enhanced bare feet (flat), which is another reason why I love them so much.

Pose Fair 2014 is here and there are a ton of amazing poses and props to be found at this venue. Poses are just as important to bloggers as the clothes we wear. They inspire us and help bring our ideas into a visual and expressive image.
In my first picture, I am holding a super cute umbrella in a even cuter pose. Both the umbrella and the pose, are part of Rockstarroo Gossipgirl's (of [Atooly]) pose collection, called Umbrella Time. The all mesh Umbrella Time prop comes in a beautiful array of Spring colors and the Umbrella Time pose pack includes 5 charming umbrella poses. They are a Pose Fair 2014 exclusive, so make sure you head over there to check these out all of Atooly's awesome poses!
In my second image (above pic), I am holding this seriously yummy Sweet Ice Cream cone from the adorable Nati Wiliams of Imeka Poses. This is not only a super cute prop, but the pose is scripted into it too! This is just one of 9 ice cream cone gacha poses, which are available at Seasons Story. Be sure to get over there soon and try your luck!

Izzie Button just recently released a beautiful new skin called Nomi. She has lovely delicate features and perfect pouty lips. As with all of Izzie's skins, Nomi comes with a ton of options. Here is how it works - each skin tone (fair, pale, porcelain, peach, natural, medium, sunkissed, tan, med tan and dark tanned) comes with a base skin with brows (light, blonde, dark & ginger) and/ or cleavage embedded into it, which comes to a total of 8 skin bases. Then Izzie included a multitude of tattoo layers that you can mix and match freely, in order to customize your look. These options include:

• Freckles - Face & Face/Body (on tattoo)
• Moles (on tattoo)
• Eyebrow Tinter (on tattoo)
• Lash Eraser (on alpha)
• 12 Lipsticks (on tattoo)
• 10 Eye Shadows (on tattoo)
• Eyeliner (on tattoo)
• Shape
• Shape for Phat Azz

All of these options are included with each skin tone! You do not have to buy these separately, which is really an amazing deal for such a gorgeous skin. Izzie also sells appliers for just about every mesh appendage on the grid. I highly suggest demoing Nomi or any of her other amazing skins ASAP!

The fabulous hair that I am wearing is a recent release from the amazing Kavar Cleanslate of Exile. This stunning style is called, Full of Secrets. I really adore the generous wavy locks that can look both cute and sexy. 

This awesome headpiece, called Persephone's Halo, was created by Olivia Lalonde of Le Poppycock. It is actually one of several gacha floral hair "halos", which were an Eden Rising event exclusive. Unfortunately, the event is over, but I am sure you can find it in the Le Poppycock Mainstore. If you haven't been to Le Poppycock lately, you really need to go. You can find so many wonderful accessories and poses for very reasonable prices. 

You are probably tired of my writing by now, but I just wanted to mention the background decor real quick. This fabulous Waterfront Dock is a Home Show 2014 exclusive from {what next}. You simply must run over and take a look at their whole Waterfront Collection, which includes: docks, charming cottages, vintage light posts and motorized boat props. 

You must also check-out the seriously cute table and chairs that I have rezzed on the dock. They are part of Cheeky Pea's Rainey Bistro collection, which is a Seasons Story exclusive that you do not want to miss!

I apologize if I forget to mention or highlight anything. I am terrible at writing concise posts and would be truly amazed if you were actually still reading this. LOL. You can find everything in the following credits and LMs:

This post is running late, which I apologize for. I wanted to post a close-up shot, but it looked terrible. So I just have these two shots for this post, since I wanted to get it up before the February cycle of Collabor88 ends.
This unbelievable outfit is from the uber talented is from Harry Hyx of ISON. I adore the minimal and sleek lines of both the jacket and bottoms.

This nicely stuctured Nova Tribe Jacket top is accented with a flared bottom. When you turn around, there is sexy open back. I wish I could think of the words to describe this exactly, but my brain is not functioning properly as of late (LOL). I blame it on my Smart Phone, which actually makes me too lazy to think. The Nova Zipper Pants are made of a sumptuous leather texture with zippers going all the way down the sides.

The brilliant candy colored hair, which is called Lady Stardust, is from one of my favorite virtual hair stylist, Bubbles Clawtooth. I love the generous waves and sexy side-swept do. Please note that I did photoshop the hair a bit in these pics, since the poses chopped off parts of it. 

The stunning skin is from the talented Shyla Diggs of -Belleza-. It is one of three Mimi skin exclusives for the Whore Couture Fair. Mimi is definitely one of my favorite -Belleza- skins to date, so I was super excited to see that Shyla released more make-ups for this event. Please make sure go an demo it ASAP!

Cabin Fever Part 2!

As promised, I wanted to go in greater detail about the outfit I was wearing in my previous post Cabin Fever. Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice, created some gorgeous mesh separates for her Fall/Winter collection. It is made up of smart blazers, high waist pants, military inspired jackets, silky camisoles and sumptuous handbags. This is definitely one collection you definitely do NOT want to miss!

For this post, I chose to wear almost all the pieces of Sissy's new collection, except for the military jacket. I paired the 'Fie Blazer' with these gorgeous 'Emy High-Waist Trousers'. I also chose to wear this stunning 'Roxie' top underneath the blazer. The blazer comes in 2 versions - one made for layering and a regular version. 

Tricky Boucher of -Belleza- created a special version of his Ava skin for The Rockabily Fashion Fair. She is absolutely beautiful. Perfect red lips and sexy liquid lined eyes. She comes in the usual -Belleza-  skin tones, so do not hesitate to grab it ASAP!

After a long awaited break, Kavar Cleanslate of Exile released a ton of amazing new hair styles! Along with this gorgeous do, he also created a lot more hair colors for each color HUD!Let's just say, it was well worth the wait! I am absolutely in love with this style in the above pics, which is called "Daydream".  Go demo them all now!

Cabin Fever

I apologize if this post is late. I have been away dealing with some RL stuff again and I really miss having time for my blog. Anyway, for the last round of The Garden, Isla Gealach of Cheeky Pea created this amazing "Yukon Kitchen" set. I adore the retro feel to this charming cabin kitchen. The Kitchen is composed of 5 animated pieces (the kitchen, island and stools) that come with PG or Adult animations.It also comes with some super charming pumpkin and squash shaped tea light holders. I also added some other items from {what next} and [CIRCA] to mix. The cabin is from the talented Corey Edo of Trompe Loeil.

All details regrading my outfit will be in the next post.

Last Minute Collabor88 MUST haves!

I am going to make this quick, since  Collabor88 closes at 1159pm SLT this evening. I have few more gorgeous items that you have to check-out before it ends. One of these items, is this fabulous 'Cargo Vest' from Harry Hyx of ISON. As you probably well know, I am huge fan of all of Harry's work. His mesh creations are simply divine! I love the relaxed, yet still very chic, look of this vest.

Btw, I must apologize for the crappy pics. I think my graphic card is going to die. I am hoping that maybe it is just from changes taken place during the roll out of server side baking. Regardless, it was impossible to take a clear pic. I checked every single issue it could be viewer wise (ie, anti-aliasing, anisotropic filtering, window size, high res enabled, etc...). 

Anyway, back to my look... I paired the vest with another awesome Collabor88 exclusive. It is this simple, but seriously adorable, 'Retro Top' from Elisaokkbye Resident of [okkbye].

I needed the perfect necklace to go with this ensemble, so I chose to wear Maxi Gossamer's beautifully made '92 Summer Of Love' necklace. This is another June Collabor88 exclusive and is available in gold or silver. It is texture change too! Oh! Check-out the pillow in the above pic? Isn't it cute? I love these! It is called the "Chill Pillow" and it is available in a ton of colors that coincide with the zodiac. So, since my birthday is October 2nd, I chose 'Libra'. M4ri1yn Magic of  ~Tableau Vivant~  , made this for this June's  Collabor88 as well. 

Bubbles Clawtooth always makes the best hair styles! I could not resist wearing his new long and sleek style, called "Over Me". Like all of the other items I mentioned, it is June  Collabor88 exclusive. The skin, however, is not. But, gorgeous none-the-less. This skin is from aida Ewing of -Glam Affair- and is part of her latest 'Summer' skin line. This was made for the United Fashion Project, which is another event you will want to check-out. Even if it only to get this amazing new skin...

One last thing, and then I will shut-up. Cory Edo, of Trompe Loeil, created this fantastic 'Rustic Cabin' for June's Collabor88. This cozy cabin comes with a new 'materials enabled' version for the SL viewer. I think this option should be coming to Firestorm too. I hope so, since it is the viewer I use.

So with that said, here are the credits and LMs:

The Home Show Is Here!

There are a lot of events that are going on this Summer. One of my favorite types of events involve home and garden creations. So, suffice it to say, I am really excited to be a part of this year's Home Show. The Home Show's awesome organizer, Valena Vacano, managed to put together two beautiful sims full of SL's best home/garden decor builders and designers. There are so many fabulous event exclusives that I had no clue to where to start! I decided on the garden. I had fallen in love with this adorable and beautifully made, 'Garden Daybed' from Tegan Serin of floorplan. They come in several colors/patterns choices, as well as having a ton of great animations to choose from. I added some shabby chicness to the mix with Cory Edo's, of Trompe Loeil, 'Pallet Chairs'. They come in 3 different style options - regular, with pillow and with a blanket. I needed a table, so I used this 'Deconstructed Coffee Table' from Isla Gealach of Cheeky Pea. This coffee table is gorgeous and has so many amazing little details too. Be sure to see to more of it. LOL.

I could not help but show-off this brilliant 'Mesh Garden Shed' from Heavenly Villa of L'aize Dayz. Her eye for detail is extraordinary.The structure is simple, pretty and the perfect addition to any garden (just like all the other items in these images). So, you must get over to The Home Show now and pick-up of some of these delightful finds. For more info regarding The Home Show's, please check-out the blog here: Home Show

Since I have had a crazy week, I decided to sneak a quick LOTD into this post too. I have been wanting to post this lovely 'Boat Set' from Marry Lemur of Overhigh. I think this is definitely the quintessential short set for Summer. Marry has been releasing tons of wonderful new creations lately, so be sure to stop by her store and check it all out.

The stunning skin I am wearing, is the soon-to-be-released 'Jade' skin from Hart Larsson of [PXL Creations]. 'Jade' definitely represents a new generations of skins for [PXL]. There are major changes in this skin's shading and features, especially the lips (which I LOVE). Please stay tuned for a full release within the next couple of weeks! 

This 'Pig Tail' styled hair from Kavar Cleanslate of Exile, is just too cute for words! It is not a new release, but a fairly recent release that I have been waiting for a chance to blog. So, be sure to TP over to Exile and try on Kavar's new styles. You will be really like his new HUD hair coloring system too. There are so many options to choose from now!

I am going to make this post super quick, since the hours are counting down until Collabor88 closes. I would love to go into my normal detail about the creations I am showing, but I just do not have time. I hope you understand. Obviously, all the creations are amazing and beautifully rendered, or I would not show them. LOL! So, please RUN and grab anything you think you may have missed!

Lots a great new stuff to talk about! First, Winter Thorn of {what next}, just released this charming 'Poet's Bench'. It is the perfect piece of outdoor furniture for your Spring home. It has seven different texture options and tons of poses!

Maylee Oh, of The Secret Store, just came out with this super cute mesh 'Lua's Cropped Shirt'. It comes in a ton of yummy colors and is definitely a wardrobe must!

I also had been meaning to blog these awesome 'Cross Shorts', from Marry Lemur of Overhigh. I simply adore these shorts and they go well with any casual look.
The gorgeous skin I am wearing is from the new FULL RELEASE of Belleza's Mya skin. I know most of you got a sneak peek of it at the Skin Fair. But let me tell you, the full line is simply stunning. It comes with a 11 base make-ups, which are embedded in the skin. There are also 3 brow options (red, blonde and dark) that also come embedded in the skin. Then, of course, there is an optional lip pack with 8 gloss lipstick tattoos and 9 matte lipstick tattoos! If you buy the whole skin pack, it is included.You simple MUST try on a demo now! Shyla Diggs did an outstanding job with this new skin!

Oh! I almost forgot! I am sure you can't help but notice these fabulous flip-flops. They are actually the flat mesh 'BAREFEET' from N-core. These 'BAREFEET' come with a Sandal (Flip-Flop) option via HUD. They also have additional HUDs that you can buy with other colors/ textures for the sandals (flip-flip)!

So, with that said, here are your LMs:
