Sooooooooooooo CUTE:)

Not me sillies, the Frill Bikini from GField at this month's Fameshed. I'm wearing it in "Lagoon," although all the colors are wonderful. It's an example of a GOOD use of mesh imho.

Also wearing Elizabeth hair [new for Vintage Fair] and Samara skin from Adam n Eve, , Baby T shoes by Pixel Mode and Random poses by [LAP]

Pay It Forward :: SySy Chapman

One of the nicest people in SL is SySy Chapman. She is a talented creator, but I'm not blogging her just for that. She is one of the kindest, warmest avatars I know on the grid. And life hasn't always been easy for her either. So here's to SySy--may you be blessed with happiness!

I'm wearing SySy's Autumn Roses in Purple, Pixel Mode Baby Ts in Berry, Donna Flora's Laura set, Kelee hair from Exile and Adam and Eve's Samara skin in Natural. Poses are by [LAP].

It Only Takes OneBadPixel...

To make a girl feel delicious and naughty.

The new collaboration between sachi Vixen and Siddean Munro has taken the grid by storm. And with  reason. What girl doesn't want to look this good? Or this bad?

Sam Goes Shopping... learns to read

This is a tale of two very chic stores. MiaMai & Baiastice and one clueless avi who doesn't read carefully! I looked at the new MiaMai Black Label designs. Totally awesome, but wasn't sure what would suit. Then I saw the Chod collection and immediately bought what I thought was a nice strapless dress. WRONG! It was the Dakini Rosed pants! Hence the first shot. They're amazing pants, but left me a little bare...

So I thought.. why not match the tops from 2 of the new and lovely Baiastice dresses. First up is the Liksye dress in rose, which was a very subtle match I thought. Jewelry is the paper couture Riverstone set.
Then I thought well the black texture and white sparkles of the Baiastice Zoey in red might make a nice foil for the MiaMai Dakini pants in Rose. Earrings are paper couture Faceted Black Diamond Arrangement. The little cuff on the neckline precluded wearing a necklace. On the right is the Zoey dress on her own worn with Pixel Mode Baby T's in black.

Then, having shown the BaiasticeLiksye dress with the Dakini pants I felt it deserved to be shown on it's own. It comes with the back draped necklace. My earring are Muse Elle Orchid [NA]. Shoes are again Pixel Mode Baby T's in berry.

My skin in all shots is Liane Natural from Adam n Eve [R] with part of sachi's Christmas pressie to me, maples lips. [R] Hair is elikatira Breathe in Blonde 02.

52 MULBERRY

Thanks again to Luna Jubilee for the 52 week color challenge. It's been quite a ride! I've taken the tack of combing my inventory for items to wear, and in the case of MULBERRY, I waxed nostalgic...

I'm wearing Claire in Raspberry [NA] from Mischief, Janie Marlowe's well-know and love brand before she rebranded as just Janie. I bought it to wear to my art opening at Tricia Aferdita's gallery in the long gone Cetus Art District. It still wears well! The skin is a memory lane visit also--*blowpop* Elizabeth tone2 in Mulberry Wine, still available. The hair is from RubisoHo in wine and is called Duri. The store still exists. Shoes are new, from Pixel Mode, the Lady T's, a kind gift from Jori Watler.

52 Mahogany

Again I've mined my backlog "closet" for Mahogany. The centerpiece is the Larin Skirt from Zaara in one of the art prints. The top is from Ivalde. I like the way the lace edging complements the uneven edge of the skirt. Maitreya's Uma hair in Copper blends nicely to the theme.

The shoes are Lady T's from Pixel Mode, a generous gift from the Lady T herself, Jori Watler. I'm wearing Laurel, one of sachi Vixen's recent skins from Adam n Eve in Spice Natural.

Other details:
Earrings & Necklace from *MM* [NA]
Bracelet from Primagine [NA]

A Monday Mashup

Milla Michinaga of MichaMi and Anessa Stine of DCNY both make sophisticated casual clothes. Milla is a bit more city and Anessa a tad more relaxed, but the clothes of these two fine creators are both chic and sexy.

I'm wearing DCNY's Soft Scoop Tank in Black with MichaMi's Cropped & Slouchy Pants in Green. Belt is Earthstone's Leather & Laced Belt in Coal.

Other details:
Gaia skin in Natural by PXL Creations
Clawtooth hair -- Enjoy the Silence in one of the Exquisite Reds
Pixel Mode shoes -- Baby T in Black
[LAP] Poses -- Female Blogger Pack

52 SIENNA

Ah Sienna--a wonderful reddish-brown earthy tone for redheads. I'm happy :)

A search on sienna in my inventory didn't reveal much, but I managed by sneaking in a little more reddish brown. I started with an older Simone Cuddly Sweater in Sienna [NA]. My belt is also an older Shiny Things Pouch Belt in "Reddish." Looked like sienna to me ;) Hair is an old ETD Aveda style called Short-Crop in Sienna, alas [NA]. My trousers are from Last Call's Magdalena pants suit in Red [NA]. Boots are from Pixel Mode called Rhea, also in Red. I'm wearing an Infinity Skin aka *blowpop* -- Carmen in Raw Sienna. [NA]

Otherwise:
earrings from GANKED
poses from Gesticulate

A Prelude to?

Polaire Aeghin has put all of her store, Prelude, on sale... there's talk of things being discontinued and something new on the horizon, but until then... I'm happy wearing the Bouquet Shirt in Green, with its sweet, but chic, flowers strewn on the front of the cardigan.

Then the question was what next? This winter I've been relying on a Sprawl oldie, back when it was Pushbutton Industries. It's *PBI* the Tweed in *ash*. Boots are Rea from Pixel Mode in Moss. Hair is Tiny Bird's new release, Love Love Love in Caramel for 50L Friday. My black undies peeking out are from Style Starts Here.

My skin is the about to be released "Brooke" from 5th & Oxford. I'm wearing Natural 5 in the Medium tone with freckles even! Brooke is a bit more edgy that Audrey and I like her:)

Red, White & Blue!
