The Wedding Guest that Never Was.

I was invited to a good friends wedding and through a major blonde moment on my behalf totally missed it as I got the time wrong…pesky time zones in RL.

If I had have gone this is what I had decided to wear…COCO’s elegant Tulip Hem Dress in beige. A wonderfully designed dress combining system clothes and sculpty bits. A black and white striped under layer of a simple short tube dress on system layers is over layed with a sculpted tube bustier and a tulip hemmed, black bowed sculpty skirt in beige.

I had to wear a hat of course so dug out ML’s Roma Chapeau from my inventory. LeLutka’s Claire clutch and N-Cores Temptation Xtreme Heels completed the major factors of the look.

Jewellry was the FM Forget Me Knot Pearl set with Zaara’s Kashiti bobble ring to finish.

Skin was PXL Creations new Candy skin with an old ETD hair, Roslin, which was modified to fit under the hat.

This look is very similar to one I would wear as a wedding guest in RL, so I was very happy with the outcome.

I’d like to wish Gitanne and Drake all the happiness in the world…congratulations!

Snow Dream

I wish I had more time to blog this item…but I don’t…so sorry if I don’t do it justice.
Early last week Nicky Ree released a new lingerie set, Snow Dream. It’s both sexy and classic all in one go, the perfect bridal night wear.

There are at least 5 ways to wear this lingerie, from bra and knickers through to long babydoll and everything in-between. Nicky has provided choice by including many layers and many attachments to chose from.

Again, her textures are sublime, with hand drawn textiles, thoughtful design and details, e.g. the beautiful garter clasps to hold your stockings in place, that really make this lingerie special.

For either a quiet night in or a special occasion the Snow Dream Lingerie is perfect for any occasion.

Truth in Doodles

I have started working for Nicky Ree and as such am rediscovering some of her older gowns.

One such is *DNR* Ms Doodles in Chocolate. As is normal Nicky provides various ways to wear this gown. The tulip top and high waistband are standard with any combination. However, the two system skirts provided, one short and one long, along with a full, open fronted flexi skirt mean the gown can be warn in several ways. As a whole the dress is simple and elegant. The design, colours and material used means it is also fun and contemporary.

I paired it up with two recent purchases…TRUTH’s Evie in seaspray and FM Forget Me Knot Pearl Set in Cream. The hair giving me a hint of Monroe with its short ,‘tamed’ wild waves and the jewellery giving the look that extra touch of elegance.

To finish I chose Fleur Allure Truffle Audacious 1 skin that picks up the pink of the gown in the make-up and ETD d'Orsay Stilettos (Brown) to compliment the chocolate in the gown.

I am really pleased with this look, even if I am blonde…lol.

I hope to bring you more of Nicky’s work…new and old…in future posts.
