One Hundred Posts

This is post #100 for me. I never really thought I would get to such a number when I started, but there you go. Last day of January 2011, last day to be a Diva, because aDIVA closes its doors indefinitely. I suggest you teleport there as fast as you can because all outfits are 50% off and they are really sexy. Mara has posted another great outfit just before me! Check it out, it's her first post :)

My Emerald

Luna Jubilee established the color of this week to be emerald.
I didn't think I had emerald outfits in my virtual closet, but last night I accidentally discovered a beautiful dress from Velvetrythms. According to my inventory, it's called Wow in Emerald. So I was wow! I have to post this. The hair is the latest release from Hazzard and the shoes and accessories are from Milady's.

Milady's Brings Tears in Absolution

SL designers never cease to amaze me with their creativity. I knew Absolution had lots of awesome new releases which I hadn't blogged yet. So yesterday, I picked up a red tube top and a black high waist skirt that were a perfect match to my new curly hair from Hazzard.
Of course, I needed some accesories. Luana Juliesse of Milady's surprised me yet again with one of her wonderful jewelry sets. It is called "Blood Tears from a Rose", and for a good reason. Each rose cries! For real! I hope you like this look as much as I do!

Glamour

Who says you can't look glamorous in the middle of the week? I'm wearing a mini silver dress from GLAMOUR, hence the name of the post. The fantastic sandals from Rose River Saloon are exactly what I needed for this dazzling outfit. Plus, they are color changeable. The silver armbands from Milady's complement the whole look in a great way. I say they are shaped as a sun... what do you think?

Is This Taupe?

Not sure if this qualifies as taupe, but I like the outfit too much not to wear it today. The new release from **GizzA** includes everything from boots to earmuffs so you really can't fail.

Goddess

I started yesterday the Seasons hunt. I did pick up a few things, among which the Cheap Makeup gift. It includes lashes, all on the tattoo layer and is gorgeous. I really like the fact I don't have to adjust anything.





I'm all dressed up with the new release from **GizzA**, the Goddess dress. It has both long and short skirt option, but I'm going for the short one just to show you my awesome DeLeer sandals from Milady's.

Summer Or Winter

Summer or winter, depending on your location, designers have got you covered. Annette Voight of [Decoy] has created this amazing new dress called Sophie. I have fallen in love with it the second I put it on! The details are amazing!
And if you live in the northern hemisphere, do not worry, Cynthia Ultsch of [Cynful] is selling one of the sexiest mini knit dresses ever! You really can't take your eyes off it :P
I'm wearing in both cases the new release Raye set made by Julia Merosi from je suis, and you can see just how versatile it is. With a few clicks I can change the color of all the elements of both the necklace and the earrings to match my outfit just the way I want it. That's just awesome!
Thank you to the great designers that make our SL lives so pretty <3

52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Indigo

Luna Jubilee said this week's color is indigo. So indigo it is! Luckily, Annette Voight of [Decoy] made a tee especially for this. So yeah, guess who's happy now? The shirt comes in both long and short sleeve version, but I went for the first choice. Thank you Annette!
Oh and don't forget, next week: taupe!

Extend A Helping Hand

Sanura Sakai of Sanu is organizing Extend A Helping Hand (EaHH) fundraiser that will contribute to the recovery of the people affected by the floods in Queensland, Australia. The event ends on February 8, for details read Sanu's blog.
I am showing you the wonderful Speranza Innocenza stilettos by Jaxie Ocealane of Rose River Saloon. 100% of the profits from their sale will go to the EaHH. People in Queensland, Australia need this, so this is a chance to help out. Here's your taxi to EaHH.





I'm also wearing beautiful new releases from [Cynful], je suis and Spirit Store. Please note the colors of the sweater and shoes appear brighter due to the graphical settings used for the shadows.

Keep It Simple

It's official! Kirstens viewer hates me! I really wanted pics with shadows but things aren't rezzing properly for me. So there you go, simple pics, no effects, no shadows, no blur, nada!
Showing you today is my look for the past couple of days. I started this outfit from the glasses from Dark Mouse and the headphones by Felicity Winslet. Very John Lennon, wouldn't you say? :D
The fabulous new boots are from Milady's. Get them either at the store or on marketplace in black or white. Full credits? See below!

52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Sienna

I was looking forward for this week's color. Luna Jubilee made a wonderful choice - sienna. I went last week to *Bliss Couture* and my eyes were literally glued to the floral pants. I guess I have a soft spot for retro patterns. The top matches perfectly to my new jewelry set Luxuria by Felicity Winslet. You could say it was meant to be worn with this combination. I hope you like it :)

GizzA Military Poison

I haven't blogged in a while, because my New Year's resolution was to organize and clean my inventory. I'm far from that, but still, I have introduced some structure into the already unpacked stuff. Makes sense? No? Well, moving on, onto the blogging things, I installed today the new release of Kirsten's viewer as I have seen many bloggers having a lot of fun with it. I'm not sure why I can't get to work properly the depth of field yet - but I know I'll get there!
Showing you today is a hot new release from **GizzA**, and I have kept the Luxuria bracelets from Felicity Winslet, watch out for her new store, Samsara, it's going to open soon I suspect. For full credits, see below.

A New Beginning

I'm wearing the latest release from Mimikri, which I received as a New Year's gift from a really special friend. The coat is gorgeous and it feels so warm.
As you can see, I'm back to being a blonde. My haircut is short, also a new release at Dark Mouse. It reminds me so much of the French chic style.
Felicity Winslet of Mariposa was kind enough to drop me the jewelry set Luxuria, from her new store Samsara. It seems Felicity decided it's time for a fresh start. I wish her the best of luck in 2011 :) For full credits, read below :)

52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Silver

This week's challenge issued by Luna Jubilee wasn't difficult at all. A silver mini dress from **GizzA** is exactly what I had in mind for the first day of the new year. Party's still on! The dress comes originally with silk socks and glittery gloves, not shown here.
I chose to wear the killer heels from Milady's and the Soiree jewelry set, newest release at Dark Mouse. I love how the necklace is worn on the back, it's so flirty. The hair I'm wearing is also a new release from Dark Mouse and Mouse Mimistrobell has done a great job with the new textures. If you don't believe me, try the free retextured Alex.
Happy New Year!
