New me and new Moniq

I really wanted a new profile picture and Moniq was so nice that she offered to do it for me. I was very impressed by the photos she took, especially how she captured the movement of the dress. This by the way is a new dress I made and it's named after her :D

And here's my new profile picture :)

Jewelry Fair

I confess, in RL, I am not a big fan of jewelry. In SL though, things are a little bit different. My avatar gets to wear the best of the best. This time, new sets from Dark Mouse and je suis, especially for the Jewelry Fair (Sept. 16-25). I'd say it's worth a visit ;-)

TP to Dark Mouse@jewelry fair | TP to je suis@jewelry fair 

 

The hair is from Hazzard and the skin is the new Chloe from Belleza. As usual, I used Strawberry Singh's windlight setting, but I also played a bit with curves.

My Destiny

I think my photo doesn't do justice to the outfit I'm wearing today, again from GizzA. You'd have to see for yourself how the dress flows. The jewelry is from Milady's, called My Destiny. It's beautiful!

Just Red

Luna Jubilee's color challenge is now onto red. I happened to find a red dress in my inventory, and because I skipped black last week, here I am. The dress is from Vero Modero, having a sale and some group gifts until February 14.
Please check Mara's Valentine's outfit, which of course, is also red. It's way sexier than mine :P Happy Valentine's Day :)

This Is What Dreams Are Made Of

Dark Mouse participates in the Chic Limited event this month with an exquisite jewelry set called Drop Dead Diamonds. The event features exclusive items from various creators. Although you can only see the necklace in my photo, it comes with earrings as well, in gold, silver and copper.
I'm also wearing a new creation by **GizzA**, which is spectacular in my opinion.
This is what dreams are made of!

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?

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.

It's A Secret

The "SO 2011" event is something I didn't think I'd try, but I got a notecard or two about it. It runs through 29th December and stores have $50L discounted items (find out more here). I just happened to be in the right place at the right time and I got something really pretty from The Secret Store. But I am so not telling you what the discounted items are. It's not like I am wearing one :P For credits and stuff, read below :)

It Started as Yellow

I wanted to do Luna's challenge, so I started to get dressed in yellow. I then saw Sway Dench's announcement on plurk of her new Xmas gift. I rushed there and what can I tell you, it was love at first sight. Be sure to pick up the sweater at Sway's and enjoy the scenery. She did an incredible job with the sim. I couldn't stop myself from wearing the africain belt I picked up last night at Julia's party at je suis. Even though you're supposed to wear it with a bathing suit, hey it's my second life. So there :)

Party, Sale, Hunts and Gifts

...really what could be better for a cold weekend in December?
I’m wearing a hot minidress from *Solange!* that is available in the Happy Holidays hunt. Judging from I’ve seen so far, this hunt has some really great prizes.
The fabulous jewelry is the "une princesse" set from je suis. Speaking of which, don't forget the Xmas party Julia Merosi is having tonight at 1 pm SLT at je suis mainstore. There will be some contests going on, such as a customer, a flickr, and a blogger contest, all with prizes in cash and credit from the store. For more details, check Julia’s blog.
In both photos, I used poses from Glitterati, which happens to have a sale going on now until January 1st. All prices are slashed by at least 50%. I'd say that's quite a deal, cause the poses are awesome.

I'm Not Cold

I confess, today's post was inspired by Tanaquil Beaumont. She blogged a pretty scarf from je suis that I too had in my inventory. After seeing her blogpost, I started going hmmm, I like that look a lot, and of course I wondered what I can do with it myself. So here I am, wearing a mini skirt and a corset in the middle of the winter. But I'm not cold because I have my scarf from je suis and the boots from Milady's to keep me warm. Kind of a Christmas look, come to think of it :)

Happy Rezzday to Mara

My beautiful friend Mara had her second rezzday on Friday. I just can't believe it's been so long since we first met. It feels like it was ages ago :) We got together this weekend as we were both online and she was wearing this awesome outfit that she got for her rezzday as a gift. We both decided we could do a photoshoot... and chose New York as a background :P Happy Rezzday Mara :)
