Who Wants A Gentleman?

The Collabor88 discount shopping event is turning out to be a great place for some quality hair shopping. Yesterday I showed you the lovely messy low pony style by Truth; today I'm wearing a half-up, bobbypinned style by Elikatira that I found so soft + romantic. -- Btw the whole Gentlemen Prefer Blondes thing? Totally untrue. Lol.
This sky-colored, retro belted number is a $10L gift by Indie Rose on the upcoming Platinum Hunt that I mentioned yesterday; the headband is actually a $10L LaGyo necklace gift for the same hunt that I liked better as a headband (these chunky beads feel very "now" in the hair). Some white mesh half-finger gloves, some League rosette pearls + the latest "Moxie" Maitreya sandals finished this look.
Blonde ambitions love + fashionista kisses to all!

Latte Stripes & Fruit Salad

Traditional thin stripes in neutral latte + dark grays provided a central styling element for today's look, from the nude double straps on these discounted Kookie boots to this free wraparound waist sash + a coffee-hued free striped hair ribbon.
The summer munchies are easily satisfied by all the prim foodz treats lately; this scrumptious free watermelon salad took care of today's fruit cravings nicely.
Summer refreshments love + fashionista kisses to all!

This gold-trimmed grape top was a nice find at the $1L Easter egg hunt at Indie Rose; this went so prettily with the free gold romper bottoms that arrived courtesy of the Hucci subscribo. -- In other news, I've had quite a few critters visit my photo studio lately; this shy burro (who I named Burrito) was a bit lonely, so I invited him to stay awhile. He really liked it when Gavin petted him. Hee.

Burrito love + fashionista kisses to all!

It's Elemental

*NOTE: While I realize these are just pixels that we play with in SL, I would like to say a huge heartfelt hug to everyone in Japan dealing with such horrors right now. This post is dedicated to you!

The new CHIC Limited shopping event kicks off tomorrow March 12, this time themed around nature's elements. This primal theme has inspired new fantasy skins from 1 of my fave skinmakers, creator Rhapzody Wilde of Mynerva. Here's a sneak peek at her striking interpretation of "Water."
This sparkly bodysuit is by Peqe and these organically contoured wedges are by Republic (love the soft fading effect on the heels).
Here I'm showing the newest Mynerva (non-fantasy) skin "Suzie," which Rhapzody mentioned is 1 of her faves to date. "Suzie" is actually a combination of the most recent Mynerva skins; I find this to be such a sweet (yet utterly mischievous) face. *mwuahs Rhapzody Wilde*
I'm wearing 1 of the prettiest dresses in this "Elements" installment, courtesy of Grixdale creator Tyr Rozenblum (which by this time has already been blogged 973849512 times; it's just that cute). A free Indie Rose floral headband, a free rustic clock pendant + some freakin' gorges petal pose props by Adorkable inspired some quality time with nature today. *hums a few kumbayas, prances around*
Who needs Nature when there's so much shopping to do? Bye bye $Lindens love + fashionista kisses to all!

Meet Kianna

Mynerva skins were all over the feeds last year, and for good reason: creator Rhapzody Wilde's lush, glowy, youthful faces quickly captured many a skin whore's heart like moi. We've all been waiting to see what Rhapzody would come up with next, and I'm tres excited to show you a sneak peek at "Kianna," which retains all the oh-so-natural quality of Rhapzody's previous skins, but adds that certain knowing look -- like an older sister who's now ready to misbehave (translation: we finally get the smoky eye makeups I've been dying for in this brand!) I'm also a sucker for the utterly smex play of smudged eyes against a soft, neutral lip.
The "Raven" series offers a razor-sharp pen eyeliner makeup, which is so striking against this clean, luminous face.
Here's the soft, glowy Mynerva body, which I'm showing with this month's free pink ballerina slippers by Indie Rose + some cutie patootie heart panties + $10L socks.
Look for "Kianna" at Skin Fair 2011, which kicks off this Sunday (be on the lookout for more Mynerva newness there too).

Huge *mwuahs* to Rhapzody Wilde for so graciously letting me show you her newest face. Skin whore love + fashionista kisses to all!

Fall Ready

You know how sometimes you when pick up a great piece, then can't find anything to wear it with? That's what happened to me with this awes plaid scarf that's free by Woodenhanger. -- When I saw these similar-hued plaid capris free by Indie Rose, I was like, finallyz.
This look is actually 100% free (or very nearly so): a free orange-yellow quilted jacket by Wave, this silly free balloon + an appropriately autumnal background helped capture this fall ready shot. (Check the Styling Credits for all the other deets).

And now to excavate my fall weather jackets from my RL closet. Fall ready love + fashionista kisses to all!
