June Colllabor88 featuring U.F.O

June's theme for Collabor88, which is To The Lighthouse, has inspired so many incredible designs for this round. The color palate of faded reds, blues, grays and lavender, remind me of past summer vacations on the the beach's of Cape Cod. The designers have created everything from relaxed cotton casuals to kitschy sailor motifs. Some of my favorite items from this round were created by the super talented Charming Meiler of  ::{u.f.o}::.She went all out and made a cool casual maxi dress, as well as this AMAZING Sailor Boyish Outfit!

Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo, created a huge Pirate and Sailor Collection for June's Collabor88 as well. So I had no problem finding the perfect Sailor Hat, which she obviously created for the sailor part of her collection. The Hat Rose is separate and can also be worn separately as a rose, like I did in previous posts. It also comes with a color change HUD that has 9 colors to choose from, making it a breeze to match with just about anything.

While I was dipping into Gyo's amazing Collabor88 collection, I found this gorgeous Shell Necklace and Earrings. In fact, there were so many wonderful accessories made for this round, that I decided to add an Anchor Necklace from (Yummy).

The fabulous one-sided braided hair is called Oceana and is yet another Collabor88 exclusive from TRUTH. I seriously love the fact that he managed to weave a scarf into the braid. The scarf's texture can also be changed via HUD. 

Please make sure you get over to Collabor88 ASAP, if you haven't already, and demo all the above items. In fact, DEMO everything that you can find there! LOL! 

Oh! I almost forgot, Snow Martiel of BenS Beauty has been releasing a ton of amazing new shoes that are made to be worn with Slinks avatar enhanced mesh feet! Her Grace Platform sandals went perfectly with this outfit! They come in a tong of beautiful colors, so make sure you grab yourself a few pairs.

I know I am probably forgot to mention a few items, so please forgive me if I did. I try to mention everything in my post, but sometimes it is impossible or would just be way too long. LOL! I only post items I absolutely adore, so if it is in here, that means I LOVE it! Thankfully, everything is listed in the credit. So, with that said, here are my LMs and Credits:

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:

Summer Time!

June's Collabor88 is another serious hit! All of the designers created "To The Lighthouse" themed items, in tones of steel blue, khaki, terracotta, beige and tan. All the light and sun washed shades that make you reminisce about past vacations at the ocean. I really LOVE this round! For this post, I wanted to create a laid back and casual feel with primarily Collabor88 exclusives, so here goes...

I am a huge fan of this relaxed Summer look from Sunami Beck of Emery. It is composed of beautifully made mesh separates, which include this-off shoulder Imogen Sweater that and coordinating Hailey Summer Shorts. Of course they can mixed match with other items, but I really liked both pieces together.

Isn't this hair AMAZING? It is the latest from Bubbles Clawtooth of Clawtooth for Collabor88, called Under the Sea.The style is absolutely gorgeous and it comes with star fish accessory, which is texture-change. You have got to love that, especially since you match it to whatever outfit you are wearing. You can also choose not wear it at all!
The talented aida Ewing of  -Glam Affair-, created a stunning new skin for June's Collabor88, called Summer! Summer is soooooooo lovely and comes in 8 summer inspired make-ups and a choice of 4 skin tones. As always, there are 8 different brow shades to choose from that are embedded into the skin. There is also a pack of 16 lipsticks on tattoo layers, so please make sure you demo this skin ASAP!

Snow Martiel of :..:: BenS Beauty ::., created these beautiful and bold Florina Necklace and Earrings, They come with a texture-change script that allows you choose just about any color imaginable for the stones. You can also choose from gold, black and silver metals. So make sure you check this out at her mainstore!
Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo, went all out again for June's Collabor88, by creating a ton of wonderful items!For this post I chose to wear her Whale Tail Necklace and Pirate Nose Earring! Both of these perfectly rendered items are available in gold and silver metals and are another Collabor88 MUST!

Oh! One more thing! Charming Meiler of ::{u.f.o}::  created these uber adorable Intro Run Slip On sneakers for The Mens Dept. I love the streamlined looked to these kicks, which can be worn with almost any casual attire. She made them in both a male and female versions that can be easily re-sized and edited to fit Slink and Just Design's bare flat feet (if you so choose). I chose to wear them sans mesh feet for once and they look great! So run and pick-up yourself up a pair in one of the many fabulous colors!

Can you see the cute anklet that I am wearing? It is another one of Caelyn Hancroft's amazing ankle bracelets. This is her Zodiac anklet and you can change your Zodiac sign via a HUD, as well as choosing from Gold and Silver metals! Another must have!

Swan Lake

Unless you have been hiding under a virtual rock, then you already know that The Arcade Gacha Event is here again and well underway! As always, all of the designers who are participating in this awesome event have managed to come up with the most brilliant creations (more like, "brilliant ways to entice us part with tons of lindens"s..lol)! The seriously talented Charming Meiler of ::{u.f.o}:: has created one of my favorite gacha collections to date for this round, which is called Swan Lake, Act 1.

I don't know about you, but when I was little I wanted to be a ballerina when I grew-up. I loved everything that had to do with ballet, from toe shoes to tutus. This is what Charming managed to re-create for me with her beautifully crafted mesh collection. It is not only made-up of beautiful tutus and ballet shoes (with a texture change HUD), but also wonderful home decor pieces and accessories. Elegant mannequins, retro princess phones and ballet shoe wall ornaments, which all come in a vast array of in pretty pastel colors. 

This is one gacha collection that you will definitely want to try your luck with!

Speaking of amazing Arcade collections, aida Ewing of Glam Affair created two new skins for this round of The Arcade. The skins are called Liv and Livvy and are both absolutely stunning! For this post, I chose to wear Liv. 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!

Mr. Truth Hawks is also participating in this round of The Arcade (as if you didn't already know). He created this fabulous hair style, called Sakura. Sakura comes in two styles - one side bun or a bun on each side. You can also win flowers and gummy bears in different colors  that can be worn in  this uber cute do. 

So what are you waiting for, go play at The Arcade! Here are your LMs and Credits:

PENUMBRA FASHION WEEK feat PRISM!

.PENUMBRA. SPRING/SUMMER FASHION WEEK 2014 has officially begun! If you do not already know this, .PENUMBRA. SPRING/SUMMER FASHION WEEK 2014, a very much anticipated one week event, takes the pioneer to display and express varied new styles in Second Life. The fashion fiesta, first and unique of its kind, is a contemporary platform envisioned and designed to unite established designers with designers who aspire being “BRANDS” of tomorrow.
.PENUMBRA. SPRING/SUMMER FASHION WEEK 2014, is envisioned to lead and promote designer’s aspirations and motivations to a Global Audience Arena is Second Life!
One of the first designers who really caught my eye, is Journey McLaglen of Prism!

I really love how Journey mixes her textures, as well as her use of sexy feminine lines. I think her Marilyn Sweater, which has a Missoni like print, mixed with her Herringbone Bamboo Marilyn Skirt, a prime example of her talent. Journey will definitely be one designer to watch and I highly suggest demoing all her work at the Penumba Retail Area.

I accessoried the outfit with both old and new items that I adore. I really felt the gorgeous green stones in this (Kunglers Extra) Vivienne Necklace really popped against the muted colors of my ensemble. I also chose these fabulous (Kunglers) Bracelets, which are a TDR Fusion exclusive right now!
I was looking for the perfect clutch to go with my outfit, so I went an old favorite from the super talented Jin Elfan of Leverocci, Unfortunately, the Leverocci inworld store is not closed. However, you can still her purchase her products on the marketplace for a very nice discount!
Sigifaust of ieQUED released a quick preview of her AMAZING new ChaCha Sandals in orange for Fifty Linden Friday. Please stay tuned for the full release!
So with that said, here are your LMs 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:
