Launching in Style!

I was going to wear Nicky Ree's beautiful Mooie Vogel to the launch of Fleur's new skin line, Allure, but when my ARC came in at over 7,900 I opted for the pants version of Nicky Ree's Brenda in pink. I figured that I shouldn't be the one to lag the sim LOL


Anyway this is one of my first Nicky Ree full outfits that I purchased and I am happy as could be that I could press it into service for the event. My shoes are even older, the *Essential* Stiletto in Rosy Brown from Prim Seduction. And they seem "made" for the outfit. I'm wearing sachi Vixen's Bad Hair Day in ... erm I'll have to check [insert embarrassed face here] and Lucas Lameth's Butterfly Frolic in Gold.

All of this was to show off the new Allure skin I am wearing. In Allure I normally wear Truffle, but somehow Ivory slipped on my pixels and stayed. The makeup is Exotique 3.

I'm sorry I've taken so long between posts, but I have been busy helping many of you find your perfect "Allure." Don't be shy -- I'm happy to help!

It's Allure-ing . . .

It's All New !

And, to borrow Camie Cooper's store name briefly -- "It's All Good!"


First and foremost I am wearing a preview copy of the NEW Allure skin line from Fleur, specifically, Exotique 3 in Truffle. The fashion feeds have been full of wonderful reviews and I've been too busy with the impending launch on Sunday at 12 noon SLT to post myself. BUT it IS all good. Delicious shading, scrumptious makeups and new skin tones to melt your pixels. I am so happy and proud for Roslin & CJ -- Allure was worth the wait!

I am also wearing a new release from (luc) Fashion Jewelry [formerly Earthtones] called Athena--the beautiful crystals sparkle with a complex color range. (luc) had a wonderful opening last week, so be sure to check out the new build and the wonderful new sets. He also has new store cards available.

My hair is from ETD--YES Elika Newness :)))))) Can we say happy? How about ecstatic?? I'm wearing Tiana in Apricot Burnt and just plain loving it. The other new style, Yvette, is lovely too. My shoes are also ETD's Peep Slingbacks in Red.

Last, but not least, is the Japanese Dress from !WigWamBam. It is the prettiest, best made dress I have seen for L$100 on the grid.

So grab the newness available now and come to the Allure Launch on the Fleur sim at 12 noon SLT, tomorrow, Sunday, October 18!

Wowie in Kau'i!

Last evening there was a smashing party at Seven, Ultra Lounge to celebrate the re-branding of Lucas Lameth's Earthtones to the epynonomous (luc). I was fortunate enough to be invited to attend, along with a Who's Who of SL fashion. The DJ was duckyfresh Watanabe. I'd never been to Seven, and I must say I was impressed by the ambiance.


So what did this small avi wear? I did try for low ARC with middling success. In the end it was the boon 75 hair in Mat that did me in LOL. I wanted an outfit that would go well with the Silver Kau'i set I had bought at the closing sale for Earthtones, so, after an inventory rifle, I selected Shai Delacroix's Roche in gray with Alligator slacks in olive. Shoes are Zhao's Sadie, bought on sale. My skin is an old Gala "Gray" in Medium that is still available at the Alady store.

Be sure to visit the new (luc) store -- your old Earthtones LM will still get you there.

DelEmma's Seaglass Jewelry an Expo Must!

My ETD colleague, Emmanuelle LaFollette, dropped the new Seaglass Sets on me last week and I was too d**n busy to even look. So imagine my delight when I found their booth at the Jewelry Expo [Thanks again Miriel!] and there it was and I said hmmmmm ... I think I have that already. And lo and behold I did!

I'm wearing the Seaglass set in the Mediterranean colors. The others are Atlantic, Baffin Bay and North Sea. The colors and textures are marvelous, having the dull luster of actual seaglass. My photos don't show the wonderful way the necklace lies on the neck. There are two bracelets, once of which is visible at the far left. It's a lovely additional to my wardrobe. Thanks Emm and Del :)

I'm wearing ETD Shari in Auburn Burnt. I modified the barrettes to complement the jewelry. My top is one of the Cashmere Sweaters from Sn@tch in Aqua. Skin is one of the Fleur Boutique Parfait Deux in Strawberry.

What's a Girl to Do?

When Elika isn't making new hair ...

What I have been doing [and have also been recommending to our regular customers at ETD] is to try on demos for styles you never looked at before. This way I have discovered Madeleine, Mary, Tessa and Vanessa I among others. And sometimes a customer's request leads me to a style new to my pixels. Such was the case with Chalisa II, which I am wearing in these photos.


The color is Copper Burnt. It is a non-flexi pony tail that I am finding a pleasure to wear. I am also showing of one of the soon-to-retire Vivant makeups from Fleur Skins. It is Freckle Face 1 in Buff. My top is the *Camie Cooper* Striped Sequin Tank in Red. I THINK the jeans are Iki's old ones that were at Pixel Dolls, but I'm not sure. Necklace and earrings are Bliensen + MaiTai's Agroglyphe in Gold.

But the point is Chalisa II!

(Kunglers - Couture) Volcana



This past Tuesday I was one of the models in the "Passions of Black Swan" show, directed by Timeless Modeling Agency. It's a great series of shows with lots of beautiful designs and outfits, and all this in the wonderfull setting of the Black Swan sim.

One of the dresses, shown during this latest show, was the (Kunglers - Couture) Passions of Black Swan - Volcana. I didn't model it myself, but I was fortunate to have it dropped on me. And as every fashion loving chicka, I adore being dropped gorgeous dresses! :-)



The Volcana was designed in the spirit of the Black Swan theme and became a very lush and luxorious long gown. It has a lovely feather texture and skirt, with a dramatic collar that is a real show stopper.
The necklace comes in two color versions and perfectly finishes the look.

It's the dress to wear for a glamorous night out, sipping champagne and strolling about on the arm of that handsome man. Or to steal the show as your single amazing self! :)

Hugs, Noena
