50 Shades of Sexy...Agent Provocateur

 

 

 

 



Had fun doing this challenge.

Sorry, a lot of the items are from shops that don't exsist anymore but I am sure if you want to recreate the look then more upto date items would be better.

Sn@tch

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I haven't been inworld much in the past few months and I don't intend to be back regularly anytime soon. Having said that, I did go shopping yesterday and bought a few goodies.

 

I started at Collabor88 and loved D!vas hair on sale there, the Asami. I bought both the Onyx pack and the limited edition pack, the Red amber pack. I love the options of the fringe, the bun and the pony tail. A fun look no matter how you wear it. I am wearing all options in both the second and thrid shots.

 

I also bought Glam Affairs skins, all three Amberly skins, whilst I was there and am sporting the Europa Frostbite 02 in my first shot. The frosty look to the skin and make up was just perfect to set off a purchase from the second shop I went to, Sn@tch.

 

I am a sucker for tasteful, knitted Christmas jumpers. This one from Sn@tch has outstanding textures and a variety of colours included to make most people happy.

 

In the second shot I am wearing Sn@tchs Mesh Glitter Slip in seafoam. A wonderfully made and prettily textured dress. I think this is one of my new favourite everyday dresses to wear.

 

In the last shot is another pretty dress from Sn@tch, the Seraphim Cocktail Dress in blue, mesh. Lace details make this feel a really dainty piece to wear.

 

Again, both dresses come in a variety of colours included with your purchase. Not only do you get great value for money but excellent quality too.

 

For the rest of what I am wearing pls see below.

52 Week Colour Challenge, Raspberry Glace

 

 

  

Raspberry Glace....like the colour but seems more like mulberry to me.

 

Anyway, quick rummage in the old inventory and I came up with an old Leezu! hunt gift. I really like it. Unusual skirt teamed with a fabulous bustle (yep, still obsessed...lol). The texturing is very clever with the choice of textile pattern. Funky, fun yet still classy.

52 Week Colour Challenge, Pistachio

 

 

 

 

Pistachio…my favourite nut and a lovely colour

I went straight for my virtual undies drawer and found Mischief (sadly closed no but regenerated as Jane) Sleep Over Set. A cute underwired  bra and brief knickers with white piping on the upper edges. Simple yet effective.

The rest I kept minimum; new with old skin from PXL, old eyes from Mirel, a new hair purchase from Wasabi Pills and ever faithful Slink feet.

Baby, It's Cold Outside.

 

 

 

 

Now I am not going a bundle on mesh clothes at the moment because every mesh dress/gown I buy I have to tweak my shape. It seems even though I am a slightly teaked medium that I have to tweak for every mesh dress I get, even from the same designer. In fact, it turns out I am a small on the bottom, well...in general, and a medium on top, in general. Why oh why cant we have mesh distorters to adjust the item to fit our avis and not the other way round. At this rate I am going to have a zillion shapes in my inventory just for mesh clothing.

 

Anyway, rant over...on the whole I am steering clear of mesh dresses, gowns, skirts, tops, trousers, undies and swimwear. Having said that I have bought 3 coldLogic dresses in their sale this past week and only because they really suited me, with minor tweaks even after trying the demos.

 

The first 3 shots are of the Vergara dress, in strawberry and black/white. I Love the cross over bust halter neck top with the tube skirt. I love the texturing on the skirt, both the folds and the pattern. The whole creation is gorgeous. The pictures let the dress speak for itself. I liked it so much I bought 2 colours.

 

The last shot is of the Gish dress. A belted, classic two tone, tube dress. Simple and elegant. Again excellent design and texturing. I will be wearing it out and about inworld on a regular basis.

I have sort of given up with the colour challenge, mainly as my graphics card is playing up and rl is busy. Now I am just going to go back to blogging what I like when I like, with, maybe, a stab at the colour challenge when I feel like it.

So, I managed to take a few shots at the landing point at Howarts which turned out OK.

 

The quick run down is a splurged at the Vintage Fair...the dteails are below,

52 Week Colour Challenge, Thistle & Pueblo

Thistle & Pueblo...the former fairly easy to do, the latter a real search for garment.

I adore the retro look so it was Artilleri that I reached for when thinking about Thistle, along with a floaty Aoharu shirt.

For Pueblo it was a long inventory search until I happened upon this Azul party dress, myabe it's a bit bright for the chosen colour but it was like rediscovering a forgotten gem.

52 Week Colour Challenge, Tea Green

Tea Green...a delicate, pretty colour.

I searched my inventory and came across a recentish purchase from Elate! the Eva Spring Green Dress that I thought may fit the bill. A simple short dress with fantastic texturing, bands of silver 'corset' the dress giving it interest. On top of that a recent visit to one of the Dressing Rooms meant I could ensure the right palette by purchasing glow studios - mint roses hairband accessory, an over the top bloom of incredible detail.

I decided to go blonde with Truths Madelaine hair and simple complexion with my fav PXL skin with a touch of make up from *FishyStrawberry*. My eyes are the usual Miriels and the shoes are SLinks.

The only other item is a Finesmith Xenobia ring with colour and texture change options.

52 Week Colour Challenge, St Patrick Blue

St Patrick Blue....hmmm, another new one on me.

 As the RFL clothes fair was on I went shopping. Luckily I found a few items that I wanted to buy and one of them fitted the colour for this particular week. LeeZu's Glitter Pants in blue were perfect and fun too. High waisted glitter hotpants...says it all really...lol

I teamed it with another purchase, this time from Bliss. The cropped fur galet with furry detached sleeves was another fun piece of clothing to wear. Sexy and fun, it shows off just a little bit too much torso, such that if you stretch upwards you ever so slightly flash the world.

Usual suspects for everything bar my hair. I chose a Naughty cut that I am not even sure is around anymore. It fitted perfectly to the look.

RFL is a good cause that could use help from everyone, the clothes fair, and other similar events, are an easy and painless way to donate funds. Help support the cause so cancer can be beaten.

52 Week Colour Challenge, Dark Raspberry

Dark Raspberry...now I recognise that...lol

This colour conjures up decadence and luxury for me so I delved into my recent purchases for a set of undies I remembered buying, again at a fair. *Fi-St*Lingerie - Incanto in red fitted the bill. It can be worn as a bra and knickers set or as a camisole and knickers set, both with and without garters and stockings. Wonderfully textured and beautifully designed I definitely felt decadent.

Gold Slink shoes kept with the decadence feel and I thought I'd keep the hair short with one of Love Souls creations, a square cut bob that is razor sharp and slick. I love my PXL nude skin so kept that on, along with Fishy lip gloss. I also added another recent purchase, a *LpD* MakeUp called*Not a Game* Only Eyes. Gives a fantastic Egyptian princess look.

After all that I was given a prop and pose TV by GM Nikolaidis of Fluke, at the suggestion of my dear friend Samara. What a perfect way to shoot for this challenge. The TV comes with 8 poses and rotates victorian pictures of women. I loved it...thank you Sam and thank you GM.

For Squinternet Larnia of Donna Flora

This post was initially to show support for Donna Floras creater Squinternet Larnia, which I decided to show by going to purchase something new from her shop even though I own quite a bit from her repetoire already. I shopped before I realised what this weeks colour challenge was. So, as time is short for me, I will blog this piece as both (and yes, its out of numerical order for me but hey). Here is my avocado colour challenge.

Donna Flora for me means stunning detail and beautiful designs. When I saw Katie I fell in love. A tulip corset sits atop a puffball skirt with a difference. The front is open to a waterfall of chiffon frills that turn into a peek-a-boo undeskirt. The waist is synched with a huge chiffon flower with exteme foliage. Both delicate and bold. The candy striped texture is the icing on the cake. This is definately an event dress to make a statement with. 

Every item that comes from Donna Flora is created with the same love for detail. This can also be seen in the jewelry she creates. I purchased, at the same time, Donna Floras Linda set. Every flower and leaf have veins,even the clasp at the back is intricate. A delicate, beautiful compliment to Katie.

To round off the look I chose a PXL skin, Love Soul hair, Miriel eyes, Fishy lipgloss and SLink shoes.

I wish Squinternet a speedy and full recovery.

52 Week Colour Challenge, Alice Blue

Alice Blue...not as dark as I would have thought.

Being a blue kinda gal you would think I would have a shed loads of this blue...wrong! So after a search and try on session I decided to show a Nicky Ree creation. The DNR Beautiful Galatea in silver teal is something out of fairy tales. It conjures up Tales of 1001 Arabian Nights and Sinbad. Beautifully designed and textured this piece speaks for itself. It even comes with hair accessories.

To compliment this piece I chose a PXL skin with Kyoot and Fishy Strawberry make ups. After some thought I chose a LeLutka hair and of course I had to go SLink barefoot.

The location was a wonderful build with a club and a harbour side souk. Please go explore for yourself this great little gem.

52 Week Colour Challenge, Champagne

Champagne....such a gorgeous colour.

To begin this years challenge I have chosen one of Nicky Ree's most beautiful, classic gowns..The Lady Aurora Gown, with the svelte skirt. The texturing is divine, the lace so delicate yet heavy. The design makes this gown suitable for any occasion, from wedding to medieval ball.

The location was built and shown to me by a friend, who I don't see enough. The stunning tower has to be seen to appreciate it properly. Raven, thank you! So here are the details:

52 Week Colour Challenge, Orange

Orange...I have plenty of this colour, so what to choose?

It's gone past Halloween so I steered clear of the cliche. Instead I opted for Riddles Hawaiian print bikini. Beautifully textured and just so very pretty.

Cream...love it, i have loads to choose from.

Mulberry...pretty colour, but still pink and still not me.

I do have it in my inventory and when I rediscovered Phoenix Risings Oda Blouse I knew it was what I wanted to blog. A pretty ruffle, 'v' necked blouse with rolled up sleeves. Beautifully crafted.

I immediately thought office and went for Maitreyas high waisted pencil skirt. To match this I knew I had to wear SLinks seriously delicious Sydney Stilettos.

52 Week Colour Challenge, Wenge

Wenge...never heard of it. However, having had it explained to me I do have some items of that colour.

I chose Sn@tch Athena top. I love the babydoll aspect of it and the floaty openess of it. A really lovely item of clothing. Plus sexy as Hell...lol

So, thinking sexy I thought of hotpants. Initially I wanted high waisted black hotpants to set off the top. Then, having tried several options from my inventory I settled on Vogues silver, sequined hotpants. All glittery and hot.

Of course, the next logical step was to sport Slinks mesh thigh high boots.

For once I changed my skin, I chose one of  Glam Affairs Castalia skins. The make up is heavy and smokey...a sultry look but still fresh looking. To top it all off I wanted a hairstyle with a heavy fringe, so I can shoot smouldering looks from under it, and [e] lasting hair fitted the bill.

The rest is listed below.
