The Lady in Red - Featuring Virtual Diva

Tomorrow is the last night of 2017 and I hope everyone has safe and fun plans in the mix!  The boyfriend and I are going to use our Gift Certificate for Outback and enjoy a night out for the two of us.  I know anyone with children knows how hard it can be to spend alone time together, even when the kids are 18 and 19, so we are going to take advantage of the time and relax together as the year comes to a close.  This past year has had it's ups and downs but it has been nice to have each other to face things together, instead of apart, and that has made things a little bit easier.  If you happen to have plans on Second Life for New Year's Eve, and you are still frantically looking for a gown, then do yourself and head over to Swank before they close their doors and grab this absolutely stunning new gown from Virtual Diva!


The Holy Couture Gown from Virtual Diva is an exclusive at Swank until the end of the month and then will be available in the store.  The design is stunning and the open back and daring neckline make it a sensuous dress that you just have to see to believe, so do yourself a favor and pick yours up today.  And while you are out shopping on the grid, stop by Nord Embyl'Lys and check out the last design of the year, you won't be disappointed!  The Flocons de Neige collection has an amazing HUD that allows you to choose the colors of your gems and pearls as well as to resize the pieces, which include earrings, two necklaces and bracelets, giving you a stunning and complete collection perfect for the Winter!  Happy Shopping!!!

Lady of the light gone mad with the night - Featuring Virtual Diva

So if any one was paying attention to my post at the end of last week, then you know I was looking forward to a week of getting organized for work and of doing a bit of catch up on my blogging. Well as we all know, as soon as you make plans, life happens. I have been putting on a bit of a brave face of late as I have had to ween myself off of my nerve medication, per physician instruction, since I have developed a life threatening allergy to it. If there was one medication I would tell people I couldn't live without, it would have been that one, so I have been getting to know that pain again and it has thrown me for a loop and kept me from being able to come into town to my computer. It has been years now since I have had to feel the fire of nerve pain through my body, but I am finding a new strength in looking for alternative treatments and empowering myself and once again calling pain my constant companion, my muse, but never my friend.
"The Poet and The Muse


There's an old tale wrought with the mystery of Tom
The poet and his muse
And the magic lake which gave a life
To the words the poet used

Now the muse she was his happiness
And he rhymed about her grace
And told her stories of treasures deep
Beneath the blackened waves

'Till in the stillness of one dawn
Still in its mystic crown
The muse she went down to the lake
And in the waves she drowned

And now to see your love set free
You will need the witch's cabin key
Find the lady of the light gone mad with the night
That's how you reshape destiny


Check out this stunning new dress from Virtual Diva, an in-store release for the new Winter Collection! The Nostalgic dress fits the curves perfectly, accentuating all the right places on the body, making it a wonderfully classic dress with vintage styled lacing along the front. If you are looking for an understated but classically beautiful new dress for the Holiday season then do yourself a favor and head on over to the store today, you won't be disappointed!

Fashion is worth doing well - Featuring Virtual Diva, Modish, No.Match and Nord Embel'Lys

Happy Monday everyone! I hope those of you in the States have had a wonderfully long Holiday weekend, full of food and family, and for the rest of you around the world, I hope you are greeting this Monday with enthusiasm! Sometimes, that's all it takes when faced with negative things, a fake it until you make it attitude. I am living in that state at the moment as a sudden and intense flare-up of things has thrown a wrench in my plans lately, but one thing I noticed that is never effected by my mood or my health, is my sense of style and fashion. We had a relaxing and casual Thanksgiving with my family and people gave me a hard time for "dressing up" for the occasion, and I realized that it doesn't matter what the event is, I am always accused of that. I guess because I spend so much time at home and out of the public view that when I get a chance to go out, I often dress up a bit. It isn't for others, it's for me, it helps elevate my mood which can take the edge off of the pain, and after all, fashion is always worth doing well!
“Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well.” — Vivienne Westwood

Speaking of doing fashion well, look no further than Virtual Diva and the amazing designs created there, along with this fantastic new dress, an exclusive for the current round of Swank. The classic lines are perfect for any event, and you can wear the dress with or without the add-on, giving you two totally different looks. The new Winter collection has been released at the event and in the store so do yourself a favor and stop by the store and event today to check them out! And while out and about on the grid, take a little detour and head by Nord Embel'Lys and let your eyes be dazzled by the beautiful jewelry, including the set I have on today! The Tresor Astral set is incredibly well made with a magnificent attention to detail, making it a stop you just have to make if you haven't yet, to add well priced, gorgeous jewelry to your collection.

Be the Light - Featuring Virtual Diva

You've got to be one that, wherever you are, like a flower, you've got to blossom where you're planted. You cannot eliminate darkness. You cannot banish it by cursing darkness. The only way to get rid of darkness is light and to be the light yourself.
Cory Booker
Be the Light

Halloween is tomorrow night, which means the end of October is upon us, and with that comes the Holiday season in just a few weeks. If you are like me then you love the formal parties that can come your way, from now until the 1st of the year, so get a head start on the rest of the crowd and pick up this amazing new creation from Virtual Diva, and be the light this Holiday season!

The Black Swan’s Song – Featuring Virtual Diva, Petit Chat, Truth, Uber, Swank, Dead Dollz, Project Se7en

Due to circumstances beyond my control with my health lately, I have been unable to post as much as I would have liked. As I sit here tonight with time on my hands for the first time in a bit I can't seem to come up with a witty story or anecdote. Two and a half years ago I had the scariest 29 days of my life, and it seems my body has decided to do a repeat performance of that moment in time. And though I am not as afraid as I was the first time possible Breast Cancer was mentioned, I am also finding it harder to stay positive. For the last year it has been one thing right after the other in regards to my health and I am just ready for this roller coaster to stop. So instead of trying to eek out something meaningless I am simply going to talk to you about how I fell in love with this Black Swan creature I put together, and I hope you do too!

The Black Swan's Song - Featuring Virtual Diva, Truth and Petit Chat

Just in time for that most Hallowed of seasons, Virtual Diva has created this stunning Black Swan ensemble, complete with feathers, crown, skirt and appliers, as well as this GORGEOUS eye makeup applier for LeLutka! I was looking for an updo hairstyle when I stumbled across this new release from Truth currently available at Uber, which is where I went to pick up Dead Dollz Ballet outfit so I could grab the perfect toe shoes and tights, bringing the entire ensemble together. And after that I literally scampered off to FOXCITY because I remembered they had a set of sexy ballet poses recently, but I got lost and stumbled into a bunch of purchases, and I couldn't be happier! From the stunning backgrounds, to props, to amazingly detailed poses, everything is a MUST have for anyone who takes photos, so head there if you haven't become addicted yet! And because this photo wasn't enough to show off the makeup or the new cuffs from Petit Chat, I just HAD to take a close up!

The Black Swan's Song - Featuring Petit Chat, Virtual Diva and Truth

I adore this skin from Essences that was in the September Powder Pack, and for some reason I have started leaning towards the paler skins, only if they have great shading and details like this one does, and I have planned a little trip by the store to pick up a few more appliers for my LeLutka head. Ok, now check out these fantastic new cuffs from Petit Chat, only available for a few more days at the Project Se7en event. The Atlas Cuffs are 100% Original Mesh and are HUD driven, offering 6 options for the Metal and Leather, as well as 4 selections for the dots. I have chosen to customize the set to make them black on black, which you can do this as well, as each piece can be modified, so make sure to check out the Notecards in your package for Customization Tricks. If you haven't checked out the wonderful items from Petit Chat, then do yourself a favor and grab these cuffs, customize until your heart is content and find out what the fuss is all about!

As usual, a song has been playing through my head all day, so I must share with all of you and then bid you goodnight!

"And from the chaos of her soul there flowed beauty." Louise Alexandra Erskine

My brain has been a whirling black cloud of chaos and confusion for a couple of weeks now, and I am finally beginning to see my way through. In the midst of all the chaos I continue to pace myself and remember to breathe, while continuing to stop and see the beauty that surrounds us, even in the most hectic moments. I have realized I do this a lot with my blogging, not just to try and relieve stress, but to help bring forth the art that resides inside me. This post has taken me several days to complete due to doctor appointments and then needing time to process what is happening with my RL and a much needed breakfast with my parents. Sitting them down and having to tell them I have developed a serious heart condition was not the highlight of my day and I honestly wish I could wake up and this would all be a dream, but I can't and now I have to learn to live a whole new way, again. I had a moment of weakness a couple of days ago and broke down, just tired of fighting with my health and cried until I had those stupid hiccup cries and in the end I felt cleansed. I love how tears can do that, and though I felt a sense of relief, a plan hasn't yet formed for how I learn to deal with this new change, but as my Dad reminded me today, the sun will still rise tomorrow and with it, a new day comes to shed light that can make you see things complete differently, or at least to see the beauty that lies even in the darkest, twisted depths of chaos that resides within my soul.


And from the chaos of her soul there flowed beauty. Louise Alexandra Erskine

"Mirror, mirror on the wall Who's the baddest of them all?" Madonna - Featuring K-tarsis, Truth, Glam Affair, Emberotic's Fashion Designs

I don't know if the rest of you parents are free yet, but school has started here in northern Arizona and I am finally free from one of the teens! Yay! But the one who graduated in June is still tagging along as I come into town, and we continue to have appointments with docs and people for the house, as well as that dreaded word J O B, for an 18 year old. But he's been starting to look a bit harder but I am sure that has something to do with the threats of having to move out that are prompting those, but the rule in the house is either you are in school or you have a job, so the party is about to be over, and then I will be able to sit back, organize all the goodies and be able to breathe and not feel like I am always running to catch up with blogging! I think the light at the end of the tunnel has me feeling a bit feisty again and in those moods I have a mix on youtube I always go to so I can wiggle along as I blog and yesterday as I donned this ensemble the mix came on and a certain song went on replay, which means I just HAD to share!

Mirror, mirror on the wall Who's the baddest of them all

I have fallen in love with all the new tattoo releases from the fabulous K-tarsis, and wanted to show this one off, since I seem to be running around in them when not blogging! If you don't know the name, I promise you will soon because the designs are absolutely amazing and come for almost all the mesh bodies out there, male and female!! The Mandala design is elegant, sexy and is perfect for those plunging, cleavage revealing designs you wear to the club year round. So do yourself a favor and stop by the store, you won't be disappointed!

The Darkness Monthly Event started on the 5th and runs until the end of the month, so you have some time to go wander around still, but do yourself a favor and check out the newest release from Emberotic's Fashion Designs, an exclusive for the event. The Temptation Low V-cut dress and fishnets with heels are available for several mesh bodies, making a perfectly snug fitting club dress! I love the flirty fishnets and of course the impossibly short hemline and daring neckline, making it the penultimate clubbing dress! So if you are looking to add a little bit of sexy to your wardrobe then head on over to the event and do some serious shopping! Speaking of shopping, I have been picking up skins lately more than pretty much anything, including this gorgeous new design from Glam Affair, exclusively available at the current round of Uber! As usual the HUD includes a plethora of options for brows, eyes and lips, making it very versatile, and a gorgeous base for almost all make ups, and Uber is also where you can get your hands on this truly stunning hair from Truth! The Margarita comes with an amazing Styling HUD giving you a ton of options so you don't have to go buying 6 different hairs, only the 1, which also happens to come with flower accessories, which only adds to the allure of this hair, and as always Truth has stunning Reds, and we know that means it will always make it's way into my hair closet!

Sometimes there are ensembles that once they are on and complete, you feel transformed, and today is no exception. You could say I am feeling a bit fierce with the haute couture styling of Virtual Diva, currently an exclusive at Swank.

The Girly Show

The Closer dress comes in sizes for all your favorite mesh bodies and the shoulder piece is adjustable so you can place it perfectly on your body. The colors are bright and fabulous, perfect for a Summer night out at the club! Paired with the stunning chain necklace from Valena you will knock them dead at your next event, so do yourself a favor and head on over to Swank when it opens its doors on the 9th and pick yourself up some new goodies!

If you have been reading along lately, then you know I am completely in love with the newest Powder Pack release, which means I just had to show off some more of the wonderful things inside this pack, but FIRST I have to tell you where to get this AMAZING skin! The Mesh Body Addicts Fair started on the 1st and will run through the 21st, so you have time to get over there, but if you do then be sure to check out the newest releases from Alaskametro, exclusive to the event. With appliers for several mesh heads, and of course OMEGA appliers as well for the head and body, you are sure to find a shade of the "Fit" body skin and "Sunny" face applier to fit your needs. The body is shaded giving more muscle definition, leading to the "fit" description. You will find abdominal shading as well, making it the perfect beach body, so do yourself a favor and head on over soon before this beauty slips through your fingers! If you are looking for exciting and daring Summer makeup to accompany your ensembles this season then make sure to check out the newest release from Studio Exposure for the LeLutka Powder Pack for August. The "Rainbow Unicorn" collection comes with a variety of bright eye shadows you can wear alone or in combination with dazzling, glossy lip shades, making it an incredibly versatile pack and definitely a MUST have addition to your collection! Do yourself a favor and get your hands on this ensemble and do your best model walk, feeling FIERCE for your high fashion event!

"You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep." - Featuring Virtual Diva and *YS&YS*

I know there are a million bazillion songs that have been written that I could search through when I am on a particular topic; and I know some bloggers obsess on never repeating tunes, but sometimes I just can't help myself. Personally I have decided that if it can go on replay for an hour or so, then it can get another play on the blog. When I took this photo today I was hoping I could find a windlight that would help me capture the mood I was in, and when clicking through the hundreds I have recently downloaded, this appeared, I didn't adjust it, or tweek it all, because it was PERFECT, and so were Owl City's Fireflies flitting around in my mind.
"Fireflies"
You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave tear drops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
The disco ball is just hanging by a thread
(Thread, thread...)

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(When I fall asleep)

Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep?
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
(Ha-ha)

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
(Said farewell)
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
(Jar, jar, jar...)

[2x]
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(When I fall asleep)

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep

In case you missed my post earlier this month featuring the newest releases from Virtual Diva for Swank, I wanted to make sure you saw this absolutely fabulous new, original headpiece design for the Reborn dress, and the gorgeous flowing curls of the Dream hair. Swank is closing it's doors and sweeping up its floors for the month so you will probably have to check both locations in the next few days to grab them, but trust me you won't be disappointed if you have to wait! This hair is to die for, and since I happen to have curls almost exactly like this in real life, I have started wearing this hair when I am out and about, or just relaxing at home. The colors and textures are wonderfully done and it comes in two sizes to accommodate our mesh heads. It is a must have if you love curls so make sure to check out the store this week.
The theme for Swank was Summer fun this last round and Virtual Diva released the Reborn dress that happens to come with this amazing head piece. I love the organic flow and daring design that doesn't just go with the dress, it can be a wonderful accent piece to any Summer ensemble, adding a bit of flair and mystique, so go check out the store this week, I promise you will be amazed!

Dance Right HERE! Featuring Virtual Diva @ Swank!

I had an idea for the name of this post as I was doing it, and then well, you know how I am with music, and a song playing on Spotify ended up on repeat and I decided to share! My feet were dancing under the computer chair and I was bouncing along to the tune and though the song is about a pair of shoes that start the dancing, I decided that this dress from Virtual Diva made me feel the same way and I just wanted to start dancing around on the platform. I am glad no one logged in to see me up there being a nut but it was a much needed stress break! I think in the hustle and bustle of things in life we often forget to take some time and just blow off some steam. Whether it's a bit of heavy metal or simply bursting out in dance, as we get older we stop taking the time to do these things and it seriously stresses us out! Think about the days when you used to just take off and drive with no particular destination in mind, just to clear your head? The stereo up so loud to drown out the noise of the stress in your own head? Or dancing around the kitchen to the latest pop song on the kids radio, using the spatula as a microphone, hoping the kids don't come around the corner and catch you? We all need these moments in life, and today I am in NEED! So come along with me and just get up and dance where ever you are!

Dance right here!

"Candles burning, lights are turning low" - Virtual Diva, DaneMarkZ

As the majority of my readers know, I often times have songs playing through my head as I put a post together and today is no exception, it just happens to be a song that I don't think needs any particular discussion, as the mood I think is pretty apparent.  I love when I get to show off those things usually kept behind closed doors and this new set of lingerie from DaneMarkZ is no exception.  With its delicate lace detailing and wonderful curve enhancing lines this is the PERFECT addition to your lingerie collection, and that special someone will thank you, so head on over to Designer Showcase, pick up your favorite color, head home, get ready and make a call inviting someone on over to your place.


If you haven't had the chance to stop by FaMESHed for their 5th Anniversary celebration, then you are truly missing out on a fabulous event with all kinds of gifts to pick up, and while you are there grabbing a few things, make sure to check out this truly stunning jewelry collection from Cae.  The Karina collection comes complete with Earrings, Necklace and Bracelets meaning you can wear them all or mix and match with all your favorite gowns, dresses, or lingerie when you are wanting to make a statement.  
The pose today comes from LUSH Poses and it's called "Always on my mind" and comes with pose balls as well as regular poses with mirrors as well, so you can pose where you need to, making it an incredibly versatile pose that I think belongs in everyone's bag of goodies!  And now that I have tantalized you with tempting lingerie and gorgeous jewels I am off to decorate a scene for you all, hoping I can get it together before the day ends, so enjoy shopping!

Chess like kings and queens above all - Virtual Diva

I am feeling a bit feisty today, and I am not quite sure why, other than the weather has once again turned towards Spring and I am looking quite forward to it's rather late arrival.  The garden has been planted for a bit now with the more resilient plants and next week all the baby plants in the kitchen window get to find their way into the soil, but not before the fence is finished so the rabbits can stop running off with my baby Rhubarb and Swiss Chard!  And of course as the temperatures rise we have a tendency to shed layers and start revealing more skin, and if you are looking for an ensemble that goes from the runway to the beach then look no further than this amazing ensemble from Virtual Diva, currently at Swank!


The Delirium ensemble comes with the headpiece add-on and the hip flowers as well as the daring swimsuit that reveals just enough, but not very much!  I loved the fit on this suit especially as I walked and posed and it didn't break or stretch the wrong way, but be careful when posing the hip pieces might need to be moved.  The textures are wonderfully done on the roses and I love the edgy, Summer runway feel of this ensemble, and I am hoping you all do too, because this seriously needs to make its way into your closet!  
Lately I have fallen in love with Nanika tattoos, and this has to be my favorite!  I picked it up a couple months ago but make sure to check out current events for other amazing pieces, I know I will be grabbing them as soon as my wallet can afford it!  Trust me, you won't be disappointed when you see all the fabulous designs.

Little bit of devil in her angel eyes - Featuring Virtual Diva, Swank, Zibska, Powder Pack


"Angel Eyes"

She likes whiskey with her water
She starts dancing when the stars come out
She ain’t your typical preacher’s daughter
She’ll leave you dreamin’ yeah there ain’t no doubt

There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes
She’s a little bit of heaven with a wild side
Got a rebel heart a country mile wide
There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes
A little bit of devil in her angel eyes

Saturday night she’s rockin’ out by the bonfire
Flirting from that tail gate and crankin’ up the dial
Come Sunday mornin’ she’ll be singing with the choir
Drivin’ me crazy with that kiss me smile

There’s a little bit of devil in those angel eyes
She’s a little bit of heaven with a wild side
Got a rebel heart a country mile wide
There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes
There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes

And I can’t stop wonderin’ what it would feel like, to hold her all night
She’s got that something, that sexy innocence, she must be heaven sent

There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes
She’s a little bit of heaven with a wild side
Got a rebel heart a country mile wide
There’s a little bit of devil in her angel eyes

Feeling a bit G L A M O R OUS! - Virtual Diva @ Swank, Nord Embel'Lys, No.Match

The month of March is almost over which means this round of Swank will soon be coming to an end, and you are going to miss out on some of the most stunning and truly glamorous designs on the grid, including this gorgeous gown from Virtual Diva!


For those of you who have been following my blog for awhile, then you know I LOVE to play dress up, especially in those designs with a nod to the glamorous old Hollywood style.  This round truly appeals to that side of me and I have fallen completely in love with the Elite Gown from the creative mind behind Virtual Diva.  The gown comes in several sizes that fit most mesh bodies and the add-on for the chest has a menu upon touch to reposition, rotate and resize, making it very easy to fit and you will turn heads wherever you go.  Before my three month absence I had started to take note of the work of Nord Embel'Lys jewelry due to the high quality of the design and textures, and since my return I have been blown away by the pieces I have seen.


The La Reine Celte Set - White Gold collection includes a head circlet (not shown), crown (not shown, earrings, necklace, bracelets, and a ring, making it an incredibly versatile set that just MUST find a home in your jewelry box today.  Make sure to check out all the other amazing jewels available at the store.  You can count on every piece being incredibly well designed with wonderful textures that sparkle and shine, perfect for any moment where you get to put on a beautiful gown and head out onto the grid, you are sure to make a Hollywoodesque entrance.

Happy Valentine's Day - featuring Marquesse, Noodles, No.Match, Empyrean Forge, Virtual Diva, ClaVv, The Epiphany

Today is one of those days I absolutely despised when I was single because it made me feel a little left out I guess.  This year, though not single, I have come to discover that today is just another day if you happen to be in a relationship where you are consistently showing your significant other how you feel.  The boyfriend and I just celebrated 9 months together last week, and like all the other months before hand, we exchanged cards, had dinner and reminded each other why we fell in love in the first place.  So when the sun rose this morning on this day of love I simply said, "Good Morning," because for us, it is just another day.  I might have picked up something different for dinner tonight, and I might have picked up a card sometime earlier this month just because I liked what it had to say, but for the most part Valentine's Day is every day in my life, and it should be for you too.  No one should ever have to worry about where they stand in a relationship, they should know every day by the gestures that are made.  Whether it's simply walking around to open the car door for you when going out for groceries, or picking up your favorite soda when your stomach is upset, or getting up early to take the car into the shop so you don't have to.  These are the simply things, the little things that matter the most, not some grand gesture thought of at the last minute because someone reminded you it's Valentine's Day.  If you truly love the one you are with, then show them that for you, every day is Valentine's Day because you are blessed to have them in your life.


If you are looking to stun your significant other tonight, or perhaps someone you would like to take that roll, then do yourself a favor and check out this absolutely stunning new release from Marquesse.  The dress is very well made with a lovely, plunging neckline that is sure to distract that special someone this evening.  The dress comes in three colors with matching boot styled heels which happen to bring this ensemble together quite nicely, especially with the thigh baring slit that shows off the gorgeous shoes made to accompany the dress.  The beading along the bodice and straps is wonderful, adding a bit of sparkle to this elegantly draped gown.  I spent a bit of time accessorizing this gown because I didn't want anything to overpower the look so I was thrilled when I stumbled upon this delicate new necklace combination from Noodles, available at Cosmopolitan.  The necklace HUD allows you to change the pieces to match your ensemble, so hurry on over and pick yours up, I promise you won't be disappointed!  And if you happen to be a lover of Empyrean Forge, then hurry to FaMESHed to see the newest pieces.  The Fortuna Collection comes with a wide variety of pieces, but I fell in love with the bracelets, and since my jewelry box is overflowing, I didn't splurge on the whole set, at least not yet!  There are two bracelets in each pack, making them incredibly versatile, especially after you start playing with the HUD to create your own look!


With my return and the introduction of BENTO, you can imagine I have been spending hours up on the platform tweaking the sliders to get the perfect look.  I discovered that with different appliers, the same face can look incredibly different!  I happen to stop by DeeTaleZ quite often to see what has been moved into the sale area and I was tickled pink to see the Angel applier from earlier in 2016 has made it to the sale room and for only 850L I picked up another skin, and I absolutely ADORE it!  If you haven't been by the sale room at the store, go wander, especially if you wear LeLutka, and see what you can find!  You won't be disappointed!!!  Happy shopping and I hope you have a wonderful evening with your significant other, or soon to be!  You deserve it!

Dramatic? Pfft! I prefer heathen! - Style Personalities Part II

Personal style is not something that is just in the air. It is something you have and that you apply to yourself.
Paloma Picasso
Just in case you missed yesterday's post, do yourself a favor and go back and catch-up as I provided a lot of back ground information on style personalities that set the foundation for the remainder of the fashion articles this week, including this one.  For the second post in the style personality series I am going to discuss the Dramatic style because it happens to be the broadest category, and it also happens to make up the basis of many of the personality combinations that exist, as very few people are clearly and succinctly one style.

The Dramatic woman loves to make a statement every time she gets dressed.  She adores bold, geometric and abstract prints, combined with striking, bright color mixes for her accessories and foundation pieces, with plenty of black and white to always keep the contrast alive in her wardrobe.  Crisp, extreme cuts with very little curve hugging materials and large, often distracting jewelry that always makes a statement and catches the eye of anyone who looks her way.  A penultimate example of the Dramatic woman is Cher.  Since the first time she strutted on stage during the Sonny and Cher show in her custom made Bob Mackie gowns, and long, lean body with striking features she has epitomized the Dramatic style personality.  And in my own personal opinion, when women dress up we have a tendency to have a little bit of Cher in all of us, which is why the Dramatic style finds it's way into even the most feminine of women.


Today I am featuring a stunning new ensemble from Virtual Diva and jewels from Atomic Faery, currently exclusively available at Penumbra's AW'16 Fashion Week.  The Emotion outfit is one of several offerings from Virtual Diva that are sure to blow you away, and I have a feeling jump right off the rack into your closet.  The ensemble comes complete with Fedora, Top with appliers and standard layers, skirt in a wide variety of sizes, and off the shoulder jacket all for a very affordable price.  While at the event make sure to drop by Atomic Faery's location and pick up some amazing new jewels to accompany your gorgeous new outfits.  Dress them up, dress them down, either way they are perfectly crafted with absolutely stunning jewel textures that have to be seen to be truly appreciated!

This ensemble actually fits into two style personalities with its classically styled hat and skirt but dances into the Dramatic with the stark black and white coloring with bold pattern combinations, making it a wonderful mix of the two styles, which I happen to truly adore!  Remember not everyone fits into one personality, and on an everyday basis I fit into two, but add in formal occasions and suddenly I fit into three.  It is about finding your main style, and buying the fashions that fit into it keeping you comfortable and able to explore the other sides of your personality for your accessories or that one wild outfit!  Stay true to your style and remember to always make the trends in fashion and home decor work for you!
