The New 'Pea Trench Coat' from E! Eclectic Apparel!

I love trench coats and can't seem to get enough of them in RL and SL. They are perfect transitional jacket for Fall and Spring.  They can add instant class to just about any look. Now, I have purchased quite a few trench coats, since I have been in SL and adore all of them. But this design is definitely 'one-of-kind' (at least to me). Eclectic Wingtips managed to create an incredible looking jacket with absolutely NO prims! Now, I know that's hard to believe. And,to be perfectly honest, if I had had been in a store looking at this trench and saw that it had no prims and system skirt on top of it, I would have definitely passed it up and chalked up the fabulous look on the vendor ad to just plain Photoshop magic. Now, I know you are thinking, did she just say, "system skirt"? Yup, and I think the way Eclectic used it is absolutely brilliant. System skirts have definitely been making a come back in casual wear. Eclectic uses this layer as the jacket's skirt. And it fits and looks absolutely amazing. I can't tell you how freeing it is, not having to worry about sizing and fussing with intruding prims. However, I don't feel this 'Pea Trench Coat', could look as gorgeous as it does, if it weren't for Eclectic's extraordinary hand drawn details. Her shading and highlights are on point! She is definitely a very gifted artist and I am overjoyed that she sent me these review copies. Thank you Eclectic! This gorgeous piece comes is 8 brilliant colors and I just adore them all. So, I sent you a limo to E! Eclectic Apparel to check them out for yourself: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Marsco/79/100/346

BTW, I will be adding a section to my blog for those of you, who may need help modifying their shape for system skirts. They tend extra curvage on the bottom, so you may want to slim down that part of your avi's shape, so you like you normally do. It definitely works well as a jacket skirt, since it adds the fullness that the prim usually does. But you may want to resize to fit a skirt. Many shape makers do include a shape just for this purpose. However, if you created your own shape (like me) or were just given a standard shape, I can give you a basic overview on how to do that. Of course, your shape must be copy/mod. Personally, I would never buy a shape that was not copy/mod. But everyone has their own personal tastes.

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......

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

KHUSH!!!

Yay! I am feeling good, because I was lucky enough to get my hands on these new tops and hotpants from "KHUSH". Thank you Liess! These cute and sassy separates are perfect for lounging around on a hot summer day. In the first picture I am wearing the adorable "Cloe" tank with either "Dancefloor Loover" or "I'm Your Commander" written on them. They also come in a variety of colors, such as black, pink and blue.

In the second picture, I am wearing the uber-cute "Gaby" top. The sexy unbuttoned top and pretty floral detailing go prefect with jeans, a mini or the "Leia" hotpants that I chose. These cheeky hotpants can be worn with the word "Naughty" written on the behind or just plain. I guess it all depends on your mood. I'm wearing the "Naughty" ones...... ::Wink::

In the last picture, I chose to wear the "Yasmin" top. This top comes with two different style options. You can wear it with or with or with out the kini top. This top also comes in quite a few color options, such black, pink and green. I paired this super-daring top with "KHUSH'S" WS hotpants. Like the "Leia", these also have cute lettering options on the behind. You can choose, "Angel", "3" or just wear them plain. Once again, it all depends on how you are feeling.

So what are you waiting for? The limo awaits to take you down "KHUSH": http://slurl.com/secondlife/dixon%20agence/129/122/22

Uk Couture

I know it's summer, but these outfits from "UK Couture" gave us very autumn-like feel. I know it's hard to imagine it's autumn when I am writing this post in 90 degree weather, but one can dream... To further the feel of the season, Kierra and I took a trip to the sim "Pixel Dreams", which is one of the most magical places I have found in SL as yet.

In the top picture, I am wearing a crisp white blouse with beautifully sculpted collar and sleeves. The top is paired with some rough and torn textured jeans, which are perfect for that autumn walk through the fields. The set is complimented with a very well designed black leather belt. I usually have a problem with sizing in regard to most of the belts that I find in SL. They are always too big and never shrink quite small enough. I had to make absolutely no adjustments with this belt, which was definitely nice surprise. If you need to make it larger, I do believe there is a resize option built into the belt.

In the bottom two pictures, Kierra is a wearing a gorgeous and sexy jacket, which drapes the body beautifully. The detailing is really quite exquisite. The jacket comes with daring pair of low cut jeans, which hugs the curves of any woman's body just the right way. UK Couture is a new found gem for me and I am very impressed by their high quality designs and easy fit. So, if you haven't been to UK Couture yet, or at least in awhile, please do yourself a favor and take the limo provided to see their latest releases.
