Muhi things to buy!!!

One of the best things of reading the feeds is that you discover incredible new stores everyday, and even when some of them are just "meh" and you usually buy the same item the blogger already featured and just leave, sometimes you discover an absolutely amazing new brand that instantly becomes part of your favourites.

Shopping in gowns

I remember someone saying on plurk the other day she was shopping on gowns, If I recall correctly her actual words were something like "one of those girls shopping in gowns" and I couldn't but think to myself, well because You can !!! There is nothing wrong in shopping in a gown, I prefer to watch you shopping in a beautiful gown than all these shiny boobies, open pants showing something I don't really need to see from you, or even worse those really low cut pants fashion that started showing the top of your bootie and I don't know how, ended up under it ... Please I know these are "coolz" but NOT for shopping you know??? kkthxbb.

Osram in Lilac

If you know me you know how fond I am of dressing like a princess. I love evening dresses and gowns more than jeans in SL. I think it has something to do with the very few chances I get to wear those in my RL and probably also has something to do with Baiastice and Sissy's ability to make the most wonderful gowns in SL. How could I resist wearing them all the time?

Osram Colours

So this week I had another "I feel like a princess" attack and decided I would be wearing gowns all the time again, therefore here is a big post about the latest Baistice gowns released so you can go around shopping in a gown too, that way I won't feel alone and we will be all helping the fashion community and all that shameless excuses we use for doing what we feel is not exactly right. *giggles*

Queen of myself in white

Were you one of those girls that only wanted the Barbie with the biggest dress? I was!!. I didn't want any kind of casual clothes, my mom could make those for me (she did all kinds of clothes for my dolls actually), but no, I wanted the one with the huge pink dress and if possible with a crown and staff included YAY!!!

Queen of myself colours

Then I grew up watching all these top models and fashion shows, loving each and every single couture collection that was released, but shopping only for casual and business clothing. I just wish I had a reason to  buy one of these RL, I never buy anything I am not going to use, of course I have a few dresses I have bought to attend to weddings or baptisms  but I just wish I had a chance to wear one of these huge gowns in RL, shopping for them must be really fun !!!

Isabel in White

I even managed to snap one picture during one of my travels in a gown. This is Costa Rica Ladies' Society Botanical Garden, I could not find a better location to shoot this beautiful gown that was designed for Miss Costa Rica Reign Congrejo to wear at the latest Miss Virtual World Peageant. I am ready to go dancing, anyone?!?

52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Week 10 Sienna

I am sooooo happy with the latest 52 weeks of color challenge pick: SIENNA, Yay!! one color I even use and should have plenty on my inventory...or not? ... Well I actually had to cheat a itte bit frmthis one, no Photoshop cheating, no, but I had to recolour some of my items in-world to make them fit the look, but overall this one has been easier for me that for example all these pinks and bright colors I rarely use.

The styling started from this Whippet & Buck vest that I discovered while visiting the store for last week's 50 Linden Friday (I recommend you to follow Luna's blog to know what's next weeks's colour so you can check while shopping around hehe). Then a quick search for sienna in my inventory revealed this Baiastice's pale sienna Lesley dress from where I got the top and then, I ran out of ideas. I started trying on like 20 different pants and several skirts, but I like one tone looks and when i realized my new  Fishy Strawberry Porcelain ruffled skirt was modify I managed to add a bit more of burnt orange to it's original colour to make it fit my sienna vest and make a perfect match. To finish the look I only added RunoRuno Knit Stockings, an also recoloured Kyoot Soft warm neck wrap and my new and beloved Maitreya Shearling boots ( *drools*) and off to take some pics!!

52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Silver

Yay I made it !!! Its almost Saturday but I sienna challenge is not out yet sooooooo... I am not late for this week's 52 Weeks of Color Challenge, woot ! I read a plurk from Luna this afternoon saying she was shopping for sienna and I almost died, I even cried on her timeline, I couldn't believe I was late again just because technology hates me. I have been trying to take this picture for 3 days, and I am not kidding. People on the [JP] sims may think I am one of the bot-residents because I have been standing there with all my shopping bags trying to take this picture and crashing every single time, and every single time....

I don't know what happens to my SL but trust me when I say it has it's own mind. It has now decided that shadows will no longer work....all of a sudden... and maybe it is also true I am not very tech savvy but come on all of a sudden? SL just hates me, but that's not news; so I had to steal hubby VAIO and install Kirstens on it so I could finally manage to take a decent picture with shadows, but at the end I have to say it was worth all the trouble because I am quite proud of it (insert proud emote here).

52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Trying to catch up - Week 8: Green

I have to confess green was an easy choice, I had been trying to blog this dress for the past few weeks but didn't have a chance. Silk, feathers and a beautiful cleavage, what else could I ask for ?!?  Just another masterpiece from the talented  Mami Jewel of Azul, equally glamorous and sexy, "Jualianne"  instantly made me feel like a diva. To complete the styling I chose one of my favourites pieces from Alienbear Designs, the KrisCar II set in white diamonds, my old favourite "Queen"  hair from Bliss, my green CCD long nails with little diamonds and my green "Barbara" Moodies. 

I was getting a bit boring with the studio background pics so I decided to go out and take a picture at the Drowsy sim, which is not only a beautiful place but also filled with some of my favourite stores, I love to visit for some relaxed shopping out of the mainstream stores.

Outfit Credits:

Skin: Baiastice Pulchra Peach

Hair: Bliss Hair Queen Caviar

Dress:  Azul Julianne

Earrings and Necklace: Alienbear Designs KrisCar II (white)

52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Trying to catch up - Week 7: Cerise

OK I took One day off due to New Years Eve Dinner  Plants vs. Zombies ... yes, seriously ... I should stop checking games all the time, I get instantly hooked to them ... *sighs*. Luckily hubby made an awesome New Years dinner for all of us and we spent a lovely evening watching music videos and revival TV shows LOL. Happy New Year everyone !!!!

And back to the Challenge, I am happy to say I am 2 weeks behind now,  I have to make only Green and SIlver after this Week 7 Cerise and I hate to say this again but I don't like pink *shudders*. Another thing this 52 Weeks of Color Challenge has made me realize is my wardrobe range of colours is not as wide as maybe it should. Funny thing is I love to see these colors when my friends are wearing them but I just seem to instantly reject anything that is not on my everyday palette (black, white, brown, red, olive, blue) unless I really love its design. 

So here I am digging in my inventory for something pink I may love enough to picture it on this blog, when I stumble upon my old times favourite LeeZu Baxter "Dita" little dress, released in 2008, and its tone is simply perfect for the challenge. Since, like I already said, I don't really like this shiny girly  palette I decided to add a bit of charcoal to contrast and make me feel comfortable enough in the set and the perfect finishing touch is my new favourite hair from Exile, I bought the browns pack, I tried it on and had to run to the store to buy the all or nothing pack, seriously. I am totally in love with it, I don't think I can wear anything else for a while luv luv luv luv it!  K I am ready, where is the party now?
