Sangria Skirt

After a long abscence a shopping spree was a must. I discovered this stunning high waisted skirt at Maitreya but which colour to choose? All of them screamed me, me me..., hmmmm....the red yelled the loudest...lol. So, a well crafted system skirt, with wonderful textures, is made a must have by the 'belt'. This clever attachment comes with a resize script..perfect!

Next decision was 'What do I wear with it?' My first choice was going to be a crisp, white, stylish shirt. However, I failed to find one to my liking that went well with the skirt so I had a rethink. Eureka! Gisaci's trenchcoat! I already owned it in nero (black) and tried it on....lol. That's the top sorted.

OK...hair...seems to be my all purpose style at the moment Truths Gillian and shoes...yes, again, ZYCreations Black Stiletto Pumps.

However, there was something still missing.....i dove into my accessories and came out with /artilleri/ greta glasses in black. Yes! Perfect for that serious but sexeh librarian look.

I will be going back for more colours of that high waisted skirt...I can still hear them calling...lol

Nice Lyric!

I have soooo many formals that I don't have time to wear them all. I have, therefore, decided to blog some of my favourites as well as anything new that crosses my path.

First up is a Simone dress called Lyric. As with most of Simone's creations it comes with a variety of options to allow the dress to be worn in different ways. In this case I am showing the long, flexi version because this is how I would wear it inworld.

The bodice is a wonderful cut with a very pretty stone detail. The skirt flares from the hip coping well with both dancing and walking. There is lovely shading, 'folds' and 'creases' all in strategic places to give the dress depth and movement.

Other options not shown here are the long system skirt that can be worn alone, giving a truly elegant silhouette, and the short system skirt, that can be worn for less formal occasions.

Altogether a simple but elegant dress.

I have teamed it with ZY Creation black pumps and Truth's Gillian hair to keep the look fresh yet elegant.

Don't be Shai!

OK..so I had to revisit this gorgeous ensemble from Shai...to do it some justice. It is available in 4 colours and I chose champagne.

It is principally underwear with a delicate lace bra and French syle knickers. The many layers means it becomes a corset with a high waisted bodice with a beautiful key detail. Matching stockings and suspenders are also included.

To add to all of this is a system skirt...which means you can slip from sexy bedroom siren to sexy about town siren. The skirt appears high waisted thanks to the bodice underneath...clever and stylish.

I am wearing Black-Gold Stiletto Pumps by ZY Creations as they matched the champagne detailing and my custom made Fleur skin that is Allure based, in Cinnamon skin tone, with the Kitten make up eyes and nude lips.

Shai has many other stunning lingerie sets, as well as outfits...go check the shop out...it won't disappoint!
