Moon Pigeon

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!

Last Day for August Collabor88!

I am going to try and make this post quick. This is the last day for the August cycle of Collabor88! I really wish the last month was not so crazy for me, because I really wanted to post every single creation for this round. Sadly, I was not able to. All of the creators who were involved with August's round, which was also Collabor88's 2 year anniversary, did an outstanding job. The theme is vintage 1920's (aka "Razzle Dazzle"). Just a think of a huge party of Gatsby's. All of the creations in this post are August Collabor88 exclusives (except for my Maxi Gossamer "FuFu Bag")!
Maylee Oh (of The Secret Store) created this exquisite "Sequined Flapper Dress". It also comes in another version with a different pattern. Unfortunately, while preparing to show you the second dress in my close-up picture, I made a huge mistake. I added the new dress to my avatar, but forgot to take off the old dress. When I went to snap the pic, I did not notice that the previous dress was still showing and covering-up the new dress. It was not until I was finished editing my pics that I noticed this. So, I apologize to everyone, especially Maylee. Ms. Oh, as most of you know is one of my all time favorite SL designers. It has been a pleasure watching her creations evolve and become more amazing with each new release. Her designs are always perfectly rendered and textured, which shows just how much love and care go into her work. You simply must grab this dress and demo it NOW, if you have not already done so yet!

I paired this dress with these fabulous "Casinelle" shoes from Allegory Malaprop of  Schadenfreude. Not only are these shoes beautiful, but they are texture change too! Allegory created a HUD, which gives you the ability to change the color of each part of shoe (ie, the sole, sides, middle, book, heel, etc..). They are also come in a "materials" version too! Another MUST demo! Here is what the HUD looks like.

I also apologize for taking a close-up shot of the shoes. I thought I would have more time.

This gorgeous skin that I am wearing, is from Hart Larsson of PXL Creations. He created a lovely vintage version of his 'Kate' skin, which comes in 4 gorgeous make-up and a new 'vintage' skin tone. Each skin also comes with 2 different brow shapes and brow tattoos - Vintage and Standard. The skin itself has no brows, so you can wear your own brow tattoos or none at all. He also made Slink appliers to go with the new skin tone as well. You can buy the skins and appliers separately, or you can buy them all in one extra discounted pack. I am wearing the 'KATE Vintage "Paris" makeup' in the above images. So, please make sure to go and demo it!

Caelyn Hancroft is quickly making a name for herself. Her brand Cae, houses some of the most stunning mesh jewelry on the grid. For this cycle Collabor88, she created this gorgeous "Dazzle" necklace and tiara. Both pieces are texture change via script too!

I know I am blabbing a lot, but I am so excited about everything in this post! Bubbles Clawtooth created this seriously fabulous mesh hair style called, "Say Yes". Bubble's Hair is always brilliant and is always a MUST demo!

Normally, I would go on about the decor at this point, but I am in a hurry! Collabor88 is closing soon! Well, I will mention one more thing, besides the lovely "Boudoir Vanity" from floorplan and the awesome "Evelyn Piano" from Alouette. Mesh Peacocks! I simply adore these mesh "White Peacocks" from Aime Takaaki of *MishMish*. Aime created versions for rezzing and for wearing! They are so adorable and wonderfully made. I am really in love with all of Aime's creations. 

So, with that said, here are the credits and LM (Get your butt there NOW!):

Last Day For June Collabor88!

I am going to make this post really short, since this cycle of Collabor88 is coming to end at 11:59 SLT. The theme is called "Chill Pill" and is basically made-up of bright colors that you would see at rave and fabulous retro 90s designs. For this post I am featuring one of my favorite looks from Julliette Westerburg of -tres blah-. It is a floral 'Spaghetti Strap Dress' with a t-shirt layered underneath. You can also opt to wear it sans t-shirt too. However, I feel this creation definitely signifies '90s casual retro at it's best! So, make sure you hurry over to Collabor88 before it ends!

Before I forget, it is the first weekend of the month again! This means that it is time for 'Belleza Best Buys'! For this whole weekend, -Belleza- will have 3 exclusive female skins for just $400! They also have 3 different awesome skins for the guys too. Tricky Boucher outdid himself this month by creating 3 stunning new make-ups for his 'Ashely' skin line that was debuted at 'Summerfest'. Each make-up is available in all tones. This is one opportunity you do not want to miss, so TP over there now!

Last Day For Arcade

I wish this post was more organized. But, I kind of freaked, since I wanted to get as much Arcade goodness into a cool and elaborate post before it ends. Elaborate yes, cool no. Amazing, absolutely!

I know this is rush job, but I hope you see some more goodies that you simply MUST have before The Arcade ends at 11:59pm tonight!
