Major Graphic Card Problems and End of Summer Post

I know you MUST be sick of my laptop rants, but my graphic card did a final crash. Hence the lack of posts. I did find out that there was a driver update that I did not see on the website. Even though I can now log back into SL, I am still having issues. So, please ignore the crappy graphics and please bear with me. I think my laptop days in SL are coming to end. I will have to get a desktop, becuase SL just eats laptops and all their hardware.
So, LOTS of newness from  -Glam Affair- ad ::Exile::. I also missed the posting this uber cute 'Ribbon Kini' from PIDIDDLE, which was an Attic exclsuive, on time. Stupidly, I mixed the days up with another event. So, I am praying it will be available in the store or at least on Market Place.
aida Ewing's lastest skin 'Lilith' has to be my fav to date! Her features are so delicate and beautiful. And I LOVE that she has new skins tones that we saw with Cassiopea. aida works hard to constantly improve and update her skins. This is why she is one of my most favorite skins designers.
Kavar Cleanslate has also been working on new textures! I simply adore his new 'Fusion' hair texures. They look amazing. Please check them out here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/54832439@N03/7906259316/in/photostream
So, let me stop my babbling, so you can check out my post. I hope you like ^^ Here are your LMs too:

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:

Sunlight, opened up my eyes to see for the first time

I guess I would call this post a typical 'LOTD' featuring one fabulous and also lastest releases from Jin Elfan of Leverocci .This release, is aka her 'Soft Satin Blouse'. It is absolutely gorgeous and perfect rendered. Jin really is a genius when to comes to mesh!
I also decided to wear the new 'Lily V2' skin, fromTricky Boucher of -Belleza-. I have been long awaiting another new release from this skin maestro. And let me just say, it was definitely worth the wait! So, be sure to checkout some demos. I am wearing the group gift in this post.
Ikon Innovia just released a new version (v2) of is hugely popular 'Horizon' eyes, called 'Barely There'! They are so lovely and so realistic. In my opinion, Ikon creates the best eyes on the grid. Since the first day I tried them on about a year ago, I have been loyal convert. So, do yourself a huge favor and stop in and try on a demo. 
For once I am at a loss for words. LOL! So, please check-out the images and here are you limos:

I also chose the wear Gia Pawpad's, Culture Shock exclusive hair, called "". I decided to add another Culture Shock exclusive to the mix, which is from Fhara Acacia of  Ricielli. It is a gorgeous 'Cowhide Tote Leather' bag, which reminds of one Prada's recent releases. And of course, I am still wearing Giselle, which is the latest and greatest skin from aida Ewing of -Glam Affair- . She is just too gorgeous to take off! So, let me stop my blabbering, so you can check this stuff out for yourself. Here are the limos:

Out of Control

I am a bit shaky at the moment. These last few weeks have been BADDDDDD!!! And if that is not enough, I just got some more awful news. I feel sick and what to cry, but I just can't move. And, when I should be convalescing, I am still determined to post pics which should have been blogged yesterday. They were ready yesterday, but I guess life was getting in the way again. So, let me stop my whining and talk about my 'Look'. which is mostly comprised of very recent releases It all started with this amazing hair from Sebastien Aries of [Shag]. This hair is just too incredible words! Sebastien really outdid himself with this style (aka Pussy Galore). Normally, you see me in light browns and dark blonde tones, but this red was just screaming "WEAR ME"! Now, unfortunately, this was a Project Themeory exclusive, but I am sure you can buy the regular colors and packs in the stores. And, if you can't yet, I am almost positive you will be. I mean, it would be shame to limit this hair to just one weekend.
Speaking of weekend deals, we have a brilliant new mesh design from Maylee Oh of 'The Secret Store'. The 'Shortest Blazer', which was a 'Lazy Sunday' exclusive,  is the perfect Spring staple and I am sure there are more to come. After a brief break, Maylee Oh has started creating again. I am hoping to see a beautiful 'Spring Collection' from her, so I will keep my fingers crossed for that!
I have another amazing headpiece from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. This unique piece is called 'Taxidermy' and can be found at EPOCH Legends. Gyo also just released a gorgeous new rigged mesh mini, called 'Kaleidoscope'. It comes in 6 color/textures and in 4 different sizes. Make sure you try on a demo before buying!!! I think I covered most of what I am wearing, so check-out the pic and here are your limos:

This is a fabulous ensemble, from the amazing Indyra Seigo, that I have finally got around to posting. Yes, we all know that Lila is WAYYYY behind and trying hard to catch-up. Anyway, like so many of Indyra's creations, she not only created one design, but a whole look. This holds true with this gorgeous 'Sekai Dress'. Not only does it come with the dress, but the leggings too. The matching earrings are also available for purchase too. And, let me tell you, even the earrings are stunning and can go with so many other looks. Okay, I realize that this post may be sounding a bitch cheesy, but I am so exhausted at moment. I can't tell you how much I love Indyra's beautifully crafted designs and her abiility to keep releasing such unique and fashion forward creations. If you have not recently been to her store, Indyra Originals than you simply must go NOW! Here is your limo to Indyra Originals: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Namaste%20Isle/189/127/28

PHYLOX NIGHTS

Wow! It seems like forever since my last post! Unfortunately, I have been sick and then consumed with prepping for the now open, 'The Vintage Fair'. You absolutely must check this fair out! Keira Seerose really outdid herself with this event. And the designers, OMG, retro heaven! Everything from from 1890s- 1980! Anyway, there are some other amazing things going as well. I figured this fabulous dress, which was designed by the even more fab Applonia Criss, was the perfect start off for the weekend. Not only is this piece incredibly made, but you can get it for next to nothing at 'The Fashion Garret'. But, you better hurry, since this will only be available until November 15th. You will also see some creations from 'The Vintage Fair' in the post, like a headband from LaGyo and a fabulous skin from Lara Hurley. So, let me stop my rambling and get on with the info and limos:
