I’ve always been a great supporter of fellow bloggers for the creativity they portray in their editing skills as well as the outfits they compose, but being caught up in getting the correct picture quality and the right bag to match the perfect shoes many bloggers have forgotten their purpose in second life fashion; which is promotion for the talented designers. I for one am guilty of doing just that due to the lack of variety in second life clothing. When shopping I look for quality items and affordability but now that money is not a problem im having trouble finding the perfect quality item that is not seen on every avatar.
Being new it is difficult at times to establish myself as individual when I cant find stores that set the bar for things like opulence which is the reason why im a fan of stiletto moody and BOSL ...

However much you spend on clothing, if you neglect your accessories you’ll always find your outfits a little lacking. I went all out for this look, showing off some of my inventory favourites which can always be used to glam up a styling.
The hat was a new purchase from Epoque’s Trilogy store. With it’s outrageously wide brim and neat silken band, who could resist, particularly when Glitterati are stocking some poses to work with it? There are 10 poses in the set which are all equally fabulous, tempting you to take more than a few pictures in your spangly new chapeau.
Whether you’re an A-list SLebrity or just emulating that diva style, the Butterfly shades from Gos are hot to trot whatever the season. These oversized sunnies are presumably named for the indent to the side of the frame, giving a very feminine wing-like shape. Lavishly scripted with texture ...

Project Themeory is a weekly event where every Saturday at 12:00am SLT a group of designers will place an item corresponding to a common theme at the main entrance of their store for 75L – It will remain there until 11:59pm SLT that Sunday. These will be brand new items and only marked down to 75L for those two days. Every week of the month we will feature different designers, different themes, and different items!

I’m really not great at mixing and matching. I often have a really hard time thinking of how a piece from one outfit could be repurposed into a completely different look. For example, until I saw the LOTD Aradia posted on her Flickr last week, I wouldn’t have thought of wearing Linc’s Tank Dress as a shirt. So, that is where the inspiration for this look came from.
I also wanted to show you the lastest poses from /GEEZ/ by Grazia Horwitz. Graz has been one of my favorite bloggers for a long time, and I’m really glad that she’s now feeding into my pose addiction!

Today is a good day. You want to know why? I’ll tell you why! For the past year and a half I’ve been switching from viewer to viewer because my snapshots would never save to my computer. It was driving me insane!! Finally I found out it was something I had installed on my computer that somehow goes against SL things and it needed to go. After I deleted it, I’ve been able to take snapshots to disks on any viewer, not just limited to one. This is a good thing for me.
I wanted to blog this outfit, but after SL was shut down and out for all of those hours, I forgot all about it. This is just a post I threw together to show off all of the new things you can get. I love the ears, by the way. I’m going to include all of the ...

Reek has released a new line of board shorts for girls (or men who like shorts to fall right into their balls. 
) and mix and match them bikini tops and bottoms. The tops have a sculpted tie around the back and the shorts have a tie that goes in the front and the option to not have a tie. There is also a tie on either side of the bikini bottoms, but either I’m really skinny or the ties on the bottoms are too far from your hips. You can move it closer by editing each piece, but it’s kind of a pain. Other than that little obstacle, the shorts and bikinis are amazing and I’m impressed with the seams on the shorts.
I got Shane to come and take pictures and her and I are going to show you some of the mix match things you can do ...

Greetings! It’s been a while since Shane and I got together to show off an outfit together. Timezones are our biggest enemy and it keeps us apart more than we care to admit. It sucks, but when you’re six hours apart from the one you want to be with you have to make due with the time given to you. Today we thought we’d get together and blog two outfits.
There are a lot of new things out on the grid. I don’t think Shane and I have had a chance to shop together, but maybe after I’m done with this, I can convince her to go on a shopping spree with me. Today’s blog shows new things from Tiny Bird, Urbanity, Maitreya, Action, and Insignia.
Also if you didn’t know, Shane is in a band! Her group, Dead Heathers, our back and ready to take over the SL grid ...

I enjoy a lot of things in life. Music, certain company, lunch, and clothes on SL that I would wear in RL if I owned them there. This is the s*&% right here, ladies and gentlemen. No dresses and beautiful make up; just things that are completely, and fully Shane.
I want every piece of this outfit. From Action’s new shirt, to the Cheer No hair I caught on another blog, in a post I loved so much, the accessories of which I’m going to go to the store and raid for some more. All of it, so lets take a look eh?

I know that I blogged a Look of the Day a couple of hours ago, and a Look of the Day is supposed to be for a whole day, but when I saw this Lady Gay Gay Tee on Gabe Bookmite’s blog I had to buy it and make an exception!
What I’m Wearing:
Skin: Rock -Pale- /01 Clean (Bald) – Den-Dou
Eyes: Cabochon (Ruri) – FTL
Hair: Akio (Crimson/Modded) – Exile
T-Shirt: Lady GayGay Tee – {MV}
Pants: A001 Jeans (Black Classic) – Armidi
Shoes: Checkered S001 Shoes (Blk/Black) – Armidi
Poses: LAP
Every now and then I get a little tired of wearing Den-Dou. As great as Den-Dou’s skins are, they make my avatar look like a teenager, and I haven’t been a teenager for a few years now.
AtomicBambi’s Christian makes my avatar look closer to my real age .
My poses are from LAP’s new Model Boy pack that was released at Pose Fair, and my clothes are all old things that I found in the depths of my inventory (44k now because I’ve given up organizing/deleting stuff!).

I don’t want to say Katey Coppola was the first to create jewelery poses, but I can’t say I remember seeing any poses. If you know of someone else who makes jewelery poses, please point me in their direction. The poses I’m using for the following pictures are from the Pose Fair at the Glitterati stand.
I’m going to feature three stores: AlaMood, Garage, and Tik Tok. I hope you enjoy all of the jewelery here as well as the poses. Also, the hair I’m wearing in this post is from Tiny Bird. It’s an old 50L Friday hair and I’m not entirely sure if it’s still at the store. The skin is a group gift from a new store called !Imabee. It’s worth checking out. I looked at the notices and the owner is working very hard to make his skins be the best they possibly can ...

I’m not sure how I used to find time to check fashion blogs, last year, but I did. At one point, I was crazy obsessed with them, and one of the very first things I would do before going about my day, was to check what was on sale. Thank God I had Clear to support me, because I’ve no fucking idea how I ever would’ve lasted in this world without her – for more than money reasons – but she managed to stand by and hand me money whenever I saw something I wanted.
Nothing much has changed as far as my time goes; then why, Internet, do I find myself unable to do the same things as I did last year? I think I have issues with both attention and routine, which strays from my astrological roots a bit. (But who buys into those things anyway, I’ve allegedly ...

Day Three and I’m here with a lot of content involving new skins from L.Fauna and more sneak peaks of what’s in store for the Pose Fair 2010. We’re just two days away from the big event and I have to tell you, I’m very excited. There’s not just POSES, there are props, AOS, furniture, and you’ll get to see some of it in this post.
L.Fauna is also releasing something amazing on the first of April, new skins! No this isn’t an April Fool’s Joke. There will be five new make ups that will sell for $805L. There is an optional freckle and cleavage, and cleavage freckle version. The eyebrows and lips are tintable and very easy to do. I’m showing off two make ups; Robin & Starling in Tan 2 and Pale 2 tones. I love the eyemake up and how the lips are designed. I remember I ...

About a week or so ago Elle Kirshner of Pulling Strings dropped a copy of her lastest build. This is called “Window To Your Soul” and it’s a window prop with five built in poses. The window is mod and you can change it to whatever you’d like. Since I’m slow at that, I left it as is. I do apologize for the inner window wall. It wouldn’t rez for me, no matter what. I’ll pretend I modded it to a grey color. Also there are new skins from a place called Bella Di Notte. I’m wearing the Lillie skin in light. Lillie comes in dark brows and light brows. I love the softness of the face. The nose isn’t overly shadowy, and the corners of the lips are love for me. The brows aren’t overly plucked. Definitely a skin worth trying.

Coming up pretty soon will be the Pose Fair 2010. It starts on April 2nd, 2010 and it ends on April 16th. It’s about time for this fair! Let’s face it, poses make our SL world go around. Without them, we’d stand crazy. It takes a lot of hard effort to make good solid poses. I know, Shane and I tried the other month and it took us forever. Today I got bombed with some of the new poses from Luxe Helendale. You can check out her blog here and her store, Do Re Mi pretty soon. She is one of the 100 participants (there’s probably more) at the Pose Fair 2010. She dropped a couple of packs of her latest poses, but I’m going to showcase two of them. If you’re a fan of my skin, I got it from Buttons by Leilany Edenflower for 50L. There are a ...

Welcome to my Wonderland! To show off the second side of Morantique’s skybox i chose a high fashion outfit with a theatrical flare. The skirt is from *COCO*’s latest group gift. its perfectly sculpted and decorated with lace ruffles what more could i dream for? When i saw the Coco skirt i knew it would look fab with my Vintage SMS Jacket (edited short). If you have never stepped foot into So Many Styles mainstore; you should go now! SMS is getting to be one of my personal favorite brands on the grid. Every piece is beautifully textured and fits my avi wonderfully with minimal resizing. Since my jacket and skirt are so high in detail; i felt the need to go ultra sheer with my top; the NEW Frilly sheer tops from SD Wears is the perfect compliment piece to my outfit; its like they were all made for each other

Spring Break is here! Here is my choice for the perfect spring break outfit! I have combined the sexy tank from *BOOM* with Emjay’s Newest release the Patchwork Shorts! These shorts are perfect to pair with spring and summer tops and bikinis! They are nice and lowcut without showing my ass crack! (total pet peeve of mine; I hate it!) I love having simple shorts that are versitle to wear when i go out to different shops i try to be low on prims so i rezz faster! This would be my ideal shopping outfit too! My look is simple but stunning! Perfect for the beach or hanging out by the pool. The hair corsage is absolutely Lovely!! My good friend atomicsparkle of AtomicBambi sent this over to me; i love the detail and the texture/resize script lets you create tons of different looks. I dont know why i haven’t ...

Hello welcome to my tea party! I am your hostess redsoledrea 
. Come take a look around my fabulous new skybox by Morantique. It is exquisite in detail and has a Alice in Wonderland vibe to it.
It comes with everything you could image to decorate your space with. Honestly all the knick knacks it comes with it is too much to describe and my blog would turn into a book lol! Trust me this is worth every penny! (One side is springtime loveliness/other side is Tim Burton Darkness, check out my next blogpost for more on the darkside of Morantique’s wonderland skybox)
What sort of Hostess would i be without the proper wardrobe changes? Today i have 2 looks that are perfect for Spring! I must admit my first time to step foot into Doppelganger’s store was this past friday for FLF. I think they had a ...

When I checked my SL one day and saw that one of the designers of Glam Affair, aida Ewing, dropped me the latest releases I think I kind of squeaked. You should have heard me. Anyway, there is a new release called Xenia. It’s a lingerie bra and pantie set that comes with fishnet stockings. This lingerie also has studs on it. Dangerous studs that if this was real life it would SHREAD your clothes. This underwear is definitely best if you’re into walking around in world in just underwear or to show to your special loved ones. It comes also in black, and pink, but the rest of the colors I’m showing off here. It screams sexy and I’m glad in SL I have the body to be able to walk around with just my underwear on. The hair was a 75L gift from Posh. I don’t think ...

There are so many fairs and other events going on right now that I’ve been rushing around the grid and spending money like it’s going out of fashion. This evening I rested my weary feet by the Accessory Fair catwalk, and of course the jewellery was the focus of my personal styling for the event.
Most of my jewellery is from alaMood; the necklace, earrings and ring are crafted in gold and set with diamonds and rubies. The necklace is particularly unusual, a solid torc looping around the back of the neck, lying open to the front, ends termed with gemstones. The earrings too are interesting, running from a hook fastening to two strung diamonds, with pendant rings and more stones to the front.
The dress is composed of a bodice from a set by Celestial Studios and a skirt from R.icielli. The skirt is available in a number of ...

I was popping around the grid when I saw this lovely store *S*. I fell in love with the skirt which features a feather clip on accent. The skirt has some great detail and texturing, which I looooved!
In my spare time I’ve also been popping around the accessory fair, where the store *Sissi* put out these lovely glasses on a necklace! That’s totally me in RL! I’m always sliding my glasses off, hooking them on my jewelry, and then asking everyone “Where are my glasses?!” in an excited panic.
I also saw in another blog this shirt from *blacklisted* and I had to own it. I liked it because it kind of made me laugh at myself and all of the other bloggers out there who at times take things sooo seriously! Enough with the married people cheating on second life! Down with Slags and their drama! lmao…

This is the new skin from Chaisuki called Brianna. I did a skin review on Chaisuki before and now they have a new face. What do you think about it? I like the eye make up and to me the freckles are softer this time around. There’s a brown, light, and red brow. There’s also a hair base and if you don’t want the cleavage look you’ll have to wear either a shirt or an underwear layer. Underneath the cut are some more pictures of the make up. There are tons of options here. This is just touching on a fraction of it.
You like what you see? Try out a demo at the Chaisuki’s main store.
I`m feeling a little lazy on this Monday morning, so I put together an equally casual look using some of the new separates from Phoenix Rising.
I accessorized Phoenix Rising`s Ilan Cardigan in Blue and Sopie Cuffed Jeans in Light Wash with another of SiSSi`s AF2010 releases, the Where Are My Glasses necklace (be sure to check out all of the color change options!), and Truth`s latest side pony, Emerald in Champagne. The demi trainers from ETD are some of the oldest shoes left in my inventory and I wear them quite a bit.
Oh! And the skin is Stephanie, the latest release from Ryker Beck of Exodi. Ryker`s skins always fit me perfectly, and Stephanie is no exception. I`ll show you more of her soon. For now, though, get to shopping!

Glam Affair has out a lovely new release, a short mini-dress called “Madlene.” What’s nice about this dress is that the belt changes textures, you can do limitless possibilities with it! I also liked the watery, wrinkled texture to it, it gave it a bit of dimension. One thing I would change is that my belts were all no-mod I wish I could re-size it, I’m a little bit chubby at the waist! lol… Other than that, I found Madlene to be a fun new creation from Aida, It’s a quite useful shift dress that can be complimented with some of their earlier works (like here with the “Sura” fur jacket).
Head to Glam Affair today to pick up Madlene, don’t forget, there is still a 10L outlet.
Cheers,
Suri Alex xxx
