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:

The March cycle of Collabor88 is coming to a close on the 7th, so you better hurry up and grab anything you may have missed. This is the perfect opportunity to pick-up sleek polished looks in shades of cream, black, red, navy and grey. One gorgeous look that you simply must not miss, is this Wifey Corset & Shirt and Mika High-Waisted Trousers from Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice.

I really adore the polished silk textured blouse and bow, which is nicely cinched with a corset. Btw, the blouse and bow come with a texture change HUD, so you can color them to work with just about anything. 

Sissy also created these gorgeous Anna Pumps. I can never have enough 'Mary Jane' styled heels! The Anna Pumps also come with texture/color change HUD for the stocking. You can choose from a ton of different patterns and colors. 

The stunning skin that I wearing is another March Collabor88 exclusive from aida Ewing of -Glam Affair-. The skin is called, Sylvia (she created Sylvia in the America and Europa skin tones for February's cycle) and she is available in the Jamaica skin tone with a TON of mix and match options! Here is how it works, you receive a pack "clean" base skins in 8 different brow colors and a no brow option that are embedded into the skin. You can purchase the following the packs, so you can fully customize your look:

• 4 brow styles in 9 different colors (on tattoo)
• 3 basic lip options
• 8 eye make-ups
• 3 lip packs, which contain 8 different lipsticks
• 4 cheek styles
• 3 nose styles

The options are limitless! So make sure you demo this skin ASAP!

The super sleek tote that I am carrying in the above images is another March Collabor88 exclusive from from -Glam Affair- and comes in a ton of lovely colors.

The hair is called, Lolita and is from TRUTH. This adorable girly style can be found at Collabor88 too.

The Duchess necklace and earrings and from the talented Caelyn Hancroft of Cae. Each piece can be customized via HUD. You can choose form 2 metal options (silver and gold) and just about every gem color imaginable.

ISON for January C88!

The January cycle of Collabor88 is almost over, so please make sure you get over there and check it out ASAP. January was yet an another AMAZING round with the most incredible event exclusives. The theme is Raw Nostalgia, which brings sleek elegance in soft polished tones .Think pearls, silk gowns, lace overlays, and polished metals.

One of the many favorite Collabor88 creations this month, is this stunning Charlotte dress from Harry Hyx of ISON. I adore the sleek asymmetrical cut of this silk textured dress. There is also gorgeous lace detailing on the top.The dress comes in a tone of gorgeous neutral tones, so make sure run and grab it!
Harry also made this beautiful Amber hair for January's Collabor88. The soft waves are coiffed to perfection.

The lovely Ria skin that I am wearing is another Collabor88 exclusive from Shyla Diggs of Belleza, which I have posted several time already. This is definitely one of my ALL TIME favorite skins from Belleza! Shyla did such an amazing job. I especially love the lips! Ria comes in 5 beautiful make-ups in a choice of 4 skin tones (Medium, Sunkissed, Tan  and Fair). There are also several options included with skin, which include: 4 brow colors (embedded into skin), 5 lip gloss tattoo, 5 matte lip tattoos and 3 mole tattoos.

The jewelry is all from Collabor88 as well. I had such a hard time choosing what pieces to wear, since they are all so pretty and well made. I chose these fabulous long Knotted Shimmer Pearls from Maxi Gossamer, which are texture change via script. I also chose these beautiful bracelets and earrings from Caelyn Hancroft of Cae. Each part of the bracelet and earrings can be fully customized via HUD. 

This amazing new Ming Headpiece that I am wearing is from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. I love stunning Asian feel to it. It comes in 5 lovely colors and is available at Limited Bazaar. There are only a limited number of the Ming headpieces that you buy, so make sure run over there ASAP to get one!

Nothing Burns Like The Cold

It's been one crazy Winter. One week warm and the next two week freezing. Everyone has the flu and is laying low, so I am trying to make the best of it. At least the days are getting longer now.
I am going to make this post quick, despite the fact that there are so many lovely items to talk about...

The super talented NyuNyu Kimono of NYU, created this super adorable shift dress for Seasons Story. I love the clean lines and minimalist look of this piece, which NyuNyu is so famous for. It just goes to show that beautifully rendered mesh and great textures speak volumes.

Nina Helix of .Birdy., made this lovely new skin that I am wearing. It is called Savannah and is a Seasons Story exclusive too. Nina also created those uber cute bunny coffee mugs behind me. They are called Bunny Cafe and are an OMGacha exclusive this month! Nina makes such amazing mesh items and you will definitely want to collect all of these Bunnies! They are only 75L per play, so make sure you try your luck!

The talented Gyorgyna Larnia finally created a new release for the LaGyo Mainstore! It is this stunning feather necklace that I am wearing. This dramatic Mollie Necklace has a bohemian feel to it, yet still makes a bold statement, I am really in love this necklace, so make sure you check it out ASAP!

Uff! I know it is hard to see, but Caelyn Hancroft created the shorter necklace. It has disk shaped pendant with a tree in it. Not only is it perfectly rendered, but it comes with a HUD that lets you fully customize the colors. I will have to wear it again to show you. Caelyn is really making a name for herself by designing some of the most beautiful jewelry on the grid. The necklace is another Seasons Story exclusive this month!

 Isla Gealach of Cheeky Pea has been very busy lately, making amazing furniture and home decor items for several events this month. One of my favorite items is this Roux Coffee Station for The Neighborhood. Obviously, I love coffee and anything related to it. However, this is the perfect addition to one's virtual kitchen. Especially when it is cold outside (like it has been in RL), since it adds lots warmth and charm. 

I think I covered almost everything. Please forgive me if I forgot anything. Here are the LMs and Credits:

Not all those who wander are lost...

I once again apologize for my lack of posts this month. My RL has been absolutely crazy and I have not had much time for SL. Because of this, I feel a bit overwhelmed by all the amazing and wonderful new releases and events. There are so many fabulous items to blog and so little time! I will try to make this post quick, so I can catch-up.

Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice, created this STUNNING Kirsty dress for this month's FaMESHed. This chic and flirty strapless dress is absolutely gorgeous. I love the sleek lines that are offset with a ruffle on the side. As always, Sissy rendered this dress to perfection with beautiful textures and tones. Please make sure you run and grab this lovely frock before FaMESHed comes to a close!

This gorgeous skin that I am wearing is a Cosmetic Fair Winter Edition exclusive from aida Ewing of Glam Affair. It is her latest Mokatana skin, which is available in Artic skin tone and comes 8 vibrant fashion forward make-ups. aida's skins are always lovely and well thought out. Each skin comes with 8 brow colors (embedded into the skin) and 2 mole options on tattoo layers. Please do yourself a favor and demo it ASAP!

This amazing Chantelle Bib Necklace, which I decided to pair with my dress, is from that talented Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. This all mesh piece is a carefully crafted wearable work of art. It is also a Collabor88 exclusive and is available in 3 beautiful metals (grey, pink and black). This is yet another item that needs to be on your must grab list.

I don't typically wear antlers, but when I saw these fabulous Winter Antlers from Amberly Boccacio of Glam Affair, I just could not resist! They can be worn as dramatic headpiece or by fantasy avatars. They are a Seasons Story exclusive and come in 6 yummy colors. They are beautifully rendered and definitely make a statement!

To top off my whimsical winter look, I chose this gorgeous new hair release from Mr Truth Hawks. This sexy side-swept do, is called Rowan. Truth has been a roll lately, releasing tons of wonderful new styles, Make sure you get your butt over to his mainstore, so you can demo them all!

Oops! This never posted and stayed in Drafts! Keeping Cozy and Chic

This has been a crazy month for me. My computer is still having major problems, so please bare me with me. I will try to make this post quick, so here goes....
I absolutely adore this cozy chic sweater dress from Marry Lemur of Overhigh. It is the perfect dress for colder months and can be easily layered too.

I paired this dress with these gorgeous new leather Avani High Boots from Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice! They are a Seasons Story exclusive and come in ton of lovely colors. Every girl needs a pair of sexy thigh high boots, so make sure you that grab these. 

There are so many wonderful accessories that are available this month. I love this leather Diana Satchel from Snow Martiel of BenS Beauty .

What can I say? I love the latest Mokatana skin line from aida Ewing of -Glam Affair-. You can grab even more 8 delightful make-ups in Jamaica and Europa skin tones at this month's Collabor88.

Winter Events!

There are so many great events that are going on right now that is almost impossible to keep up. So for this post, I wanted to show a sampling of some of favorite my event exclusives that feature skin, hair and accessories....

I am absolutely in LOVE with this latest new skin from -Glam Affair-, called Magenta! What makes this skin extra special, is that aida created it in a new skin tone, called Asia. Just like the name of the skin tone, the facial features reflect a more Asian ethnicity, which are absolutely beautiful! This special edition was created for this round of The Seasons Story. Magenta comes in 6 stunning make-up and a TON of options that include: 8 brown options (embedded into the skin), 5 lip tattoos, 3 nose tattoo, 3 cheek enhancers (tattoo layer), Slink hand and feet appliers, Lolas Tango appliers and Phat Azz appliers! 

This is definitely one of my favorite Glam Affair skins to date, so make sure you demo it ASAP!

Collabor88 is here is again and the exclusives are TO DIE FOR! I am totally crazy about this new hair style from Bubbles Clawtooth, called Female Trouble! I just love the super sexy styling, which is tousled to perfection, giving you 'just-got-out-of bed' look! This is one my all time MUST HAVE hair styles!

Speaking of brilliant Collabor88 creations, Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo created this lovely Chantelle necklace and earrings. These pieces are so simple and glamorous at the same time.They are available in a choice of 3 metals and are the perfect finishing touch for any outfit!

Since I was so busy with RL over the Holidays, I didn't get a chance to post all the new items that I wanted to. So I am going to do it now! 

nina Helix of .Birdy. Skins, created this beautiful new skin line, called Jordan. Jordan comes in more darker ethnic skin tones, in contrast to Nina's lighter toned skin releases. She is available in 6 lovely skin tones, which include: Toffee, Latte, Olive, Coco, Mocha and Cafe. The skin itself is pretty much bare, but it is so gorgeous that is does not need much make-up. Each skin comes with the following options: dewy skin, matte skin, glossy lips (embedded into skin), matte lips (embedded into skin), no brows (embedded into skin), penciled brows (embedded into skin) and natural brows (embedded into skin), 2 lipsticks (tattoo) and eyeliner (tattoo) So, if you are looking for stunning ethnic skin, you must check out Jordan!

M4ri1yn Magic of ~Tableau Vivant~  has been making such wonderful lately! I really adore this recent release, called Noel. It was a December Collabor88 exclusive, but it should be in that ~Tableau Vivant~  Mainstore by now. The hair is unisex and is made of rigged mesh, so it comes in several sizes. I love the HUD driven color packs which are based on the 4 Seasons. This is gives you a ton of wonderful tones choose from. The hat is texture change too via HUD and allows for every color imaginable. This is definitely a Winter MUST!

These amazing statement earrings by AvaGardner Kungler, were a TDR Fusion exclusive from (Kunglers Extra) and come in 3 different metals (copper, gold and silver). I do hope you can pick these up in the Mainstore too.

So with that said, here are your LMs and Credits:

IKON's Promise Eyes and Belleza's RIA!

I am so excited! Ikon Innovia of IKON is now a FaMESHed regular! This means more stunning new mesh eyes, from my all time favorite eye creator! For this month's FaMESHed, Ikon released the new Promise Eyes, which are absolutely gorgeous. I love the window reflection in the eye and the details are so life-like. Well, take a look for yourself...

IKON Promise Eyes - Various Colors- Group 1 (S)

IKON Promise Eyes - Various Colors- Group 2 (S)

These are just a few of the brilliant colors available.They basically come in every color imaginable and only cost 150L per pair. The biggest problem is choosing a color, since they are all so lovely! Each purchase includes: 5 sizes of both regular system eyes, mesh eyes (can be worn without the mesh attachments too), and a convenient HUD for precise fitting, various options and different effects. The HUD is easy to use and allows for a perfect fit in a matter of seconds.You can easily change the overall size of the eye or just the iris and pupil, you can change the degree of shading on the white of the eyes, add glow and add brightness.

There are different sizes of eyes that you can chose from, plus a fitting guide...

Plus two types of shading....

 I really love the precise fit and control that the HUD gives you. They make Ikon's eyes that much more amazing! So what are you waiting for, go demo these eyes ASAP!
