New from Elika and First from Mouse!

This is a hair blogging day. I'm wearing one of Elika's new styles in the new [and wonderful] textures, as well as Mouse Mimistrobell's first hair. I'm wearing both styles with ETD's Scoop Neck Tops and Callie Cline's new jeans, plus Detour and Tommyboy sneakers. My skin is my new custom one from Soda Designs.



The first style I'm sharing is one of ETD's new styles in Elika's all new textures, Torwen in Auburn. It is very loose, wish yummy alpha bits that flutter and give the hair a lightness despite it's bulk. Welcome back Elika! My jewelry is Primagine's RFL Everday set donated to help riaise money for cancer research. You can get it in her store on Kilimarta as well as the Passionate Redheads RFL Shop on Sacre Bleu.




Next is Mouse's first and, so far, only hairstyle [will get name when inworld next] in Dark Blonde. It was an April Group Gift. Those of us on Plurk have been commenting on various stages in the development of this style and, I have to say, for a first attempt it is light years better than much that I have seen around the grid. I love the wavy bang across the forehead and the straight long ponytail from the poofed back. Mousie -- please make it in red :) Jewelry is the new Gaea necklace from Lucas Lameth in Coral & Gold. It's a bit dressy for the outfit, but it's *my* Second Life (tm)

My poses are from AnnaH/StoRin, Luth, Analu, Flowey and [LAP] --thank you ladies for making me look less like a noob :)

Lost Dreams . . . . . . . . . Can be found!

Just before the RFL Clothing Fair Estelle Parnall, the creator behind Lost Dreams, asked for volunteer models from her update group. I was lucky enough to be asked to pose for her in these two beautiful dresses, the Ellie Black Evening Dress & the Glamazon Ruby Red Dress. They are available at her store now. Ellie is in the main room while Ruby is to the right in the Glamazon section with other goodies :)


The Glamazon Ruby Red Dress is a nicely textured slinky dress with a sleeveless top crowned by a sparkling diamond collar. I'm wearing ETD's Aiiyanna in Smoke and Celestal Studio's Deviant Nation Vogue Vamp-Beguile in Champagne.



Ellie is a stunning full-length slender formal. The minute it rezzed on me for the shoot I started purring. The texture of the top is detailed and elegant. Hair is ETD Patricia in Caramel Burnt and my skin is a Custom Soda in Sand.

The jewelry in both pictures is the Vine necklace and earrings created by Dexter Bachman available at his store in Porcupine as well as at Bellissima. Shoes are moot LOL

More Relay for Life Generosity:)

As you will learn, if you don't know already, my relay team is The Passionate Redheads. We won Team Hero Award last year, but more importantly raised over $10,000 USD to help fund a cure for cancer. And THIS year we are back, with many new members, all of them enthusiastic and generous. I'll be blogging the fashion contributions they have made to support our team's fund raising efforts. If you can't wait to see them here you can always check our Relay Blog!

First up are two wonderful jewelry sets. The first is Hibiscus Flossberg's RFL Complete Passionate Pink Gypsy Set. Whew, that's a mouthful ;) It is available at her store Purangi Designs.




This set isn't new, but what IS new is that she has packed absolutely EVERYTHING in one nicely priced box. Not only do you get the necklace, earrings and bracelet I am wearing. You also get another bracelet, belts, anklets and belly rings, several with two attachment points. I have had the Gypsy set in green for a while, but couldn't resist the packed box of pink goodness, all for Relay for Life.




Next is Mouse Mimistrobell's Pink Tourmaline Spheres in Silver, a RFL for life exclusive in her Spheres series. I got the Peridot/Copper set when it first came out and when I suggested PINK for the RFL version, Mousie said sure :) I've blogged this set before, but it still bears repeating that the square earrings and clasp make the set just that much more fashionable and smart. And in Pink Tourmaline, it rocks! This relay exclusive is available from her RFL Kiosk at her Dark Mouse store.

For both jewelry sets I am wearing Michami's Glitter tube and leggings in Purple and Black, Zhao's Precious color-change shoes, my custom Soda skin in sand and ETD's Tyra hairstyle in Auburn Burnt.

Thanks so much to Hibi and Mouse for such beautiful donations to the RFL cause. [And YES I bought mine too!]

All poses are from Dove Swanson's generous Female Bloggers Pose Set.

An outfit to "Adore"

Sometimes outfits begin in a serendipitous way. I had bought the +plus Adorable Brown Snake Belt, which I had seen on Ana Lutetia's blog and when I searched for it in my inventory, this top came up, called Adorable, by laurine Brown. I have no idea where I found it, but I'm glad it survived my sporadic inventory purges as it suited the outfit nicely :).




The pattern on the belt and the color & texture of the top set off nicely Mouse Mimistrobell's DM Spheres in Peridot. I included the closeup so you could see the detail on the earrings and necklace.

I'm wearing Truth's Ivy in Carrot and the second of my two Soda custom skins. My slacks are the Sable Velvet Pants from Love Chic, while my shoes are the Tease Peep Toe Pumps in Gold from Kitty's Lair. I have these in 5 colors and I may need more ;)
