RBCG Re-Opening Contd...

As Lila has already told you in her post (Points Down), July 22nd Marks the Re-Opening of RBCG. Owned by Kyrsten Jigsaw, RBCG is an adorable store full of fun props and fabulous fashions. Kyrsten manages to bring 'fun' to the table with some highly detailed pieces bringing out the kid in us all and who doesnt like being silly from time to time ??? So off I went on my travels and dammit my truck broke down so I looked in my trusty 'DIY Bag' that I had luckily picked up at RBCG and looked for a my trusty 'banjo' to occupy my time while I waited for Mr Mechanic. Finally I was rescued so thought I deserved a well earned treat after my bad day so a 'popsicle' was the ideal choice to tingle my taste buds. Omgggg cries in dispair as my 'Popsicle' melts in my hand from the afternoon heat. So while I go sulk after my rough morning heres your limo to take you down to RBCG to see for yourself the goodies availble in the store http://slurl.com/secondlife/Thibedeau/48/161/23

Summer of Love with '[aRAWRa]'

With The Summer of Love Fair well underway all those shopaholics are fighting that lovely 'lag monster' we all love so much to go see the amazing goodies on offer. Lila and I have been very lucky to have received some awesome pieces to preview so a big thank you to everyone that has been generous and sent us goodies. Aurora Deischer owner of [aRAWRa] sent a yummy filled package which again I am very grateful for so a big thank you to you too Aurora. Filled with scrummy summer goodies I was thrilled to adorn these wonderful creations that have been created to an extremely high standard. The exquisite texturing combined with the excellent prim work make these a summer must have in my opinion. I felt very classy and chic wearing the pieces from [aRAWRa] and fell in love with the designs as soon as I put them on. The prim skirts flow to perfection and move with your body rather than remaining static like some dresses have a tendency to do, and the attention to detail is second to none. I would highly recommend you pay a visit to [aRAWRa] not only at the Fair to get the amazing designs Ive shown but also to take a look at the other scrumptious pieces on offer. So Ill stop waffling and send your limo so you can go grab these yummy designs (SOL Fair) http://slurl.com/secondlife/Purgatory/204/215/3992and of course heres the second limo to take you to the [aRAWRa] store http://slurl.com/secondlife/Love%20Potion/192/85/21

Hmmmmm.... This post was supposed to be about all the fab things I found at the "The Dressing Room Blue", but it didn't seem to work-out that way. *LOL* I guess I got a bit side tracked while going through my "un-filed" pieces in my inventory, which is a common thing. So what I am showing you are a few new finds, one "TDR Blue" item and a big dose of "Themory". I hope you like......

I LOVE *COCO*

Picture 1: *COCO* - OneShoulderPolkaDotsDress
Picture 2: *COCO* - BubbleSkirt-Gold
Picture 3: *COCO* - Tank Top-with Sunglasses

*COCO* was my first favorite shop in SL and also my first taste of real fashion in SL. As a "noob", who was fashion obsessed in RL, I was overjoyed to find that SL actually had a lot of talented and incredible designers on the grid. cocoro Lemon was one the first of such designers, whose creations are on  par or even greater than the RL designers who we see on runways at fashion week. I was hooked! I am  also always closely watching to see what she comes up with next!
Recently, I was lucky enough to receive a few of *COCO*'s latest releases and was more than honored to review them. Thank you cocoro! In the first picture, I am wearing the "OneShoulderPolkaDotsDress". The name basically says it all! I just LOVE this little black dress, whose silk-like texture is so carefully wrinkled. The expertly crafted polka dot chiffon prim just brings this ultra chic number to a whole other level I just adore the subtle baring of the neckline.This dress just screams GLAM!
In the second picture, I am wearing cocoro's "BubbleSkirt" in gold.The intricate pleating mixed with hand painted shadows and highlights make this an extraordinary piece thats has a very exotic feel.This particular skirt is the perfect compliment to an formal or casual wardrobe.
In the third and last picture, I am wearing *COCO*'s "TankTop-with Sunglasses". Once again cocoro uses this amazing black silk texture (as seen in pic 1) with skillfully sculpted wrinkles that she places with an adept precision. The plunging asymmetric neckline is to die for! And when you turn around, the back has a fabulously low scoop cut, which accentuates my curves to a "T"! Absolutely YUMMY!
Now I think I have rambled enough, so it's time for you to go see this for yourself. The limo is waiting:

New Finds From "THE DRESSING ROOM"



Yay! New goods from "The Dressing Room"! I always get excited wondering what fabulous pieces the designers will have waiting for us....and at a seriously discounted price to top it off! High quality designers and great prices. What more could a girl ask for?
Well, among many other things, I pick-ed up this amazing skin from Tuli, called "Gina". The creamy skin and pouty lips just elicit pure sexiness. The colors are fairly neutral, so it's the perfect compliment to any summer wardrobe. I also managed to grab the fabulous "ANITA" high-waisted nude skirt from R.icielli. I just love how this skirt hugs my curves and is cinched with a gorgeous black belt. YUMMY! Now, one of my favorite finds was this amazing "Black Chic" hat, which is from glow studio. It's the ideal piece to give one's outfit a bit of sass.
There are many more treasures to found at the "The Dressing Room", so go hurry and go take look! The limo is waiting: http://slurl.com/secondlife/This%20Way/33/156/21

HYPER CULTURE

Things have been a bit nuts lately, since we have had quite a few reviews to do. So, finally, I got a chance to look through some of my June gifts from designers. One of the first gifts I opened was this ultra sexy dress from HYPER CULTURE. Now I know this post may seem a bit a simple and not overly embellished, but I feel this dress just speaks for itself. And if you are lucky, it just may still be available in HYPER CULTURE's subo .

REDGRAVE!!

This was a particularly enjoyable review to do, since I have always been a big fan of Emilia Redgrave and new found fan of "Redgrave" shoe designer,Viola Leigh. I'll talk more about her shoes in a bit. I originally associated Emilia Redgrave with her extremely high quality and realistic skins. It wasn't until fairly recently that I started to take notice of her amazing clothes. From a bit of "Haute Couture" to some absolutely fabulous casual wear, Emilia does it all. Her designs are feminine and flirty, and her explicit eye for detail shines through in all her designs.
In the top 2 pictures, I am wearing Emilia's "Wrap Top" and "Classic Bermudas". This, to me, is the quintessential summer outfit. I just love the sexy linen top that feels as cool as it looks. Emilia's hand drawn texture gives this piece extra dimension and realism. I paired the top with theses fab bermudas. Their gauzy pattern and sculpted cuffs, just fit one's body to a "T".
In pictures 3 and 4, Kierra is wearing the "Cardigan Fur" and the "Jean Mini-Skirt". Once again, Emilia manges to create another sexy top, without it being garish. The silky fabric, trimmed with fur, is absolutely scrumptious. And I just adore classic mini, which is the perfect length. One of my main issues with jean mini-skirts in SL, is the length. They are either waaayyyyy too short or a bit too long. This skirt is just right. Thank you Emila!
Last but definitely not least, are the shoes that are showcased in the 5th and bottom picture! Viola Leigh is one very talented designer with an acute sense of structure and design. I am wearing the "Madonna" heels , which is more of bootie. Viola's extremely accurate use of detail just floors me. The shoe is made up of a refined shiny texture, which come in 5 yummy colors, and an intricate zippered trim (comes with a gold and silver option). These are definitely my new favorite shoes! Thank you Viola!
Kierra is wearing the "London" heels. OMG! Talk about sexy stilettos! Once again, you can see how Viola's talented use of texture and detail, make one very authentic and original shoe.
Now since I know you want at least one or all these items right away, I will send you the limo to get to Redgrave:

ZURI from REDGRAVE!



"Zuri", the latest skin from Redgrave is finally out! Woot! Emilia Redgrave has come up with a very sensual skin, perfect for summer. Zuri comes in two different tones, Tan and Cacao, and in 15 different lovely make-ups. The skin has very natural sun-kissed look to it and the shading and detail leaves you with an exquisite bikini body. The make-ups range from very neutral tones all the way on up to a more smoky and sultry look. I have to say, I absolutely love the lips on Zuri. They are absolutely luscious and have the perfect pout. The nose is also accentuated with carefully placed freckles to give it that extra bit of realism. I honestly can't pick a favorite make-up, since they are all so amazing.
Zuri also comes with a pair of gorgeous walnut eyes and lashes to complete the look. If you haven't already picked-up a shade or a pack of Zuri, make sure you get down to Redgrave quick and do so. The single skins are $99oL and the fatpack is $2990L. The fatpack is definitely worth it, since you will want to wear every color.

I am so so soooooo glad Im not a guy as lets face it they have a hard time in second life to find good clothes most of the time. I took Corey to pick up some of the Hunt Items available for the guys so here are a few of the items we found. The Hideout Hunt (THOH) runs until June 15th and Fashion Freaks Hunt (FFH) also runs until June 15th so still plenty of time to grab some great pieces from the generous designers participating.
