Dress Up Friday

It's hard to find simple designs that are really superbly made. This stunning gown by Designing Nicky Ree is unbelievably free + I love the confidence of this clean style: a single seam, running vertically down the torso, trails down into a subtle darkening of fuscia color + a darker, prism-like purple hue. It's like wearing a shimmering jewel.
The latest free AY.LinE hair gift + some gorgeous free pink bracelets by Sigma added simple flair. Such a simple design was the perfect canvas for setting off beautiful jewels, like one of my favorite ruby necklaces by Donna Flora. (Btw sorry these images aren't perfect, RL job demanded that I had to upload ASAP! Grrrr).


I also scooped this $50L Fridays dress by a designer that is new to me, Casa Del Shai. The texture on this dress was so shimmery + pretty that all it needed was pair of dangly earrings for chic summer style. I'm also showing the tres fabby Glam Affair "Sofia" skin line that I love with a beautiful peacock-like eyeshadow.
Happy long weekend Friday everyone. Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Under A Neon Sky

SL exploration is one of the funnest things you can do in-world (esp if you have a souped-up laptop like me + can finally see permanently on Ultra, yay!)
The revised Sick5 has been getting some attention recently + I've been wanting to check it out. This rugged, burnt-out urban landscape, half-sunken into chunky broken asphalt, is simply a stunning build. Such a desolate vibe of course called for a ruffed-up pretty girl look, so I went with red plaid. And ciggie. Hee.
Just over there . . . I coulda sworn there was a lucky chair. Hmph.
I actually built this look around the new free Twisted & Spoiled jewelry gift, which is a simple black leather collar + silver necklace. The free Phoenix Rising skirt I'm wearing has already been all over the feeds; the store is currently having a 50% off black, red + white sale (i.e., where every fashionista seems to be this morning). I can't seem to take off this free lucsious red-lipped Eret!ka skin; a new "Sparkly Death" tote bag by Boom + some discounted Dark Mouse red plaid jewelry finished this look.
Now to see if I can get into The Deck for the new free Tuli skin gift + tons of other scoopies there. Happy weekend + love + fashionista kisses to all!
