Memoire

Hmmm! So much going on! First of all, I am so happy to say that for the first time EVER, I was able to see the MAYFAIR SIM fully rezzed! If you read my blog, you probably have heard me whine quite a bit about my mesh issues and overall connection problems.  Mesh would rarely want to rez, especially a whole mesh sim with detailed baked textures. If I needed to purchase something from Celoe or Mon Tissu, which was not on MP, I had to blindly click around for the vendor I needed. I was only able to do that after about 5 relogs too. Finally, about a month ago, I found out what was wrong with my connection. I needed a better router. And, let me just say, SL has been a whole different experience and much more fun to say the least. So the MAYFAIR SIM was my final test to see if my issue was truly resolved. I have to admit, I put it off for quite some time since I was scared I would still see nothing. But yesterday I decided to go there and it rezzed right away! Yay! I decided to take the pics for my post there too.
I also have some good news for -Belleza- skin lovers. The team over at -Belleza- created a new monthly event at their store, called 'Best Buys'. On the first Friday of every month, they will release exclusive skins for just $400L and it will last for 3 days only. For this first round, they released 'Ava' in 3 gorgeous make-ups! They also released 2 special versions of their male skins as well. The 'Ava' skins are available in 4 different skin tones (pale, sunkissed, tan and medium). The -Belleza- appliers for Lush and Lolas are compatible with these tones. You can also get the 'Ava' lips pack (in your favorite skin tone), to give your skin more wear options.
Oh! I really was so excited and flattered to find out that blogger extraordinaire, Nadja Baxter (of German Style), chose me as her blogger "pick"for Style Academy Feed's 'Faculty Picks'! I have always looked-up to Nadja for her fabulous style, stunning images and longevity as a blogger. It was truly an honor to be chosen by a blogger with such prestige and talent. To be honest, I really did not even think she knew I existed. LOL. I am always surprised to find out that anyone knows who I am, especially since there are thousands of SL fashion blogs. Nadja chose Mimikri Kit as her 'Designer Pick", which I was thrilled about. Both Nadja and Mimi are SL originals, who helped to shape the SL fashion world and make it what it is today. In a virtual world full of templates and poor style, these two ladies shine bright!

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

Like her other recent designs, they come in a mouth-watering assortment of gem stone colored tones.The sculpts are done to perfection and the design is classic.This a MUST have staple for your Spring wardrobe!

I also wanted to add that I was just sent some really cool poses from Carina Larsen. I have always known Amacci for their hair and skins, but the poses were new to me. I used a mix from 'model packs' 2,3,5 & 9. I was very impressed and highly recommend them. As a blogger, I am always in need of new and fresh poses; these really hit the spot.

Indyra Seigo has just released a gorgeous new collection, called the 'Catalan Collection', which is perfect for the upcoming Spring weather. Not only are the clothes beautiful, but the coordinating accessories are too. The outfits consist of a delicately crafted one shouldered blouse and sexy body hugging jeans. They come in 5 yummy colors: Milk, peaches and cream, antique rose, cotton candy and seafoam. You have a choice of a gold or silver belt for the top and buttons for the jeans. Indyra also created these stunning 'Chablis Sandals', which come in silver or gold. And if that isn't enough, you can also get a fierce 'snakeskin clutch' in silver and gold too. Oh, I almost forgot about the jewelry. Indyra designed a stunning 'Chablis Necklace'(also in silver and gold) and 'Catalan Rings' that have gems to match the color of the blouse. Whew! Indyra definitely thinks of everything when it comes to styling an outfit. Each of these creations are simply exquisite. A definite must for any girl's inventory.

My Final Post For The *With Love From Hunt.....

Now, if you haven't started the 'With Love From Hunt', you better hop to it quick. In 2 days, December 17th, the hunt will have officially ended. However, if you do miss it, the 'Happy Holidays Hunt' just started. Both hunts were arranged by event organizer extraordinaore, Keira Seerose and Chic Inc. And I am sure you know  that when Chic Inc. is involved, you are only going to receive the best of best! I have heard some people complain about the hunt items costing $10L each. But, what you need to understand is that you are not just receiving ordinary hunt items, you are getting emsembles, jewelry, skins, shoes, skyboxes, accessories, etc.., that are usually worth well over $600L! So, with that said, I am going to show you the last of my favorite picks. Please keep in mind that I try to create all of my looks with just hunt pieces. Except for the hair and some shoes, these are all hunt creations. Oh, and before I forget, the hunt starts at [[[SWANSONG]]]: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Le%20Cirque/99/175/24
