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.

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?

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*

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!!!

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 !!!

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: Trying to catch up - Week 4: Plum

Yes I know, I am 5 weeks late on Luna's 52 Weeks of Color Challenge but if you know me you are no surprised, I'm a bit like Alicia's white rabbit *sighs* "I'm late! I'm late! For a very important date! I'm late! I'm late! I'm late!"

SL is not cooperating as usual and consequently I have not been able to take pics, but these are not News either.... On the bright side I had some spare time this past weekend because of Christmas Holidays and I finally made all the stylings for the 5 weeks I was behind  and during this week I will be posting them in a desperate attempt to catch up. Now that I think about it I am going to add this to New Year Resolutions: Follow Up on 52 Weeks of Color Challenge!!!

First of all I would like to thank Strawberry Singh for her amazing Close your Eyes tutorial and all the other fantastic resources available in her website. I am slowly trying to improve my photography skills and hers and Luna Jubilee tutorials have helped me greatly. Make sure you check them out.

Now for the clothes!! As the clever title states week 4 was dedicated to plum and plum is the colour of one of my favourite blouses ever, this beautiful satin piece from  Baiastice Cotton & Satin Drap outfit. Since I didn't have to work very hard on the outfit I decided to add a few accessories, like this perfect Coco leather belt and Dare Lace Stockings, to make it more attractive but keeping it's simplicity. Stylish and chic, let's go shopping !

Baiastice New Releases - Bow Back Boots and Evion Minidress

I have been jumping around in my new pair of boots the whole day and I just HAD to share. These are the most amazing high boots I have seen so far in SL!! The leather texture on them and  the details on the zip, the heels and the top options are simply perfect, and they come in a lot of different colours: black, brown, dark green, gold, midnight blue, nude, red and snow white. Do I need to say they are from Baiastice?

I have completed the look with these leather slim trousers and one of the recently released dresses called Evion, also by Sissy Pessoa. Hair is my old favourite Breeze from Lamb Bellic and the earrings are from the talented Julia Merosi from Je suis... who held one of the most fun season parties I have attended, I'll talk about that soon too :P

Last but not least I want to share another recent discovery, Manifeste by July Raymaker, a brand specialising in runway model poses which are also perfect for blogging because they do not dissort the clothes at all, thanks girls for the advice!
