Mr. X and FAD Round #2 & Baboom Exclusives


Fad is now open... and goes through July 28!  The theme is Sunday Season and features soft pastels... Mr. X loves soft pinks and yellows, greens and yes, even  orange -- the color of mangos... the sexiest fruit on the planet -- so he says...and I agree.... do you?
BABOOM AT FAD EVENT ROUND 2
I love the new outfit by Baboom.. called Joelina it is a dream in pastels... mint green, luscious peach and sunflowers... it is a perfect summer gown that will flow on the midnight wind... that is sure to resonate with the heart chakra... oh la la!

BABOOM AT FAD EVENT ROUND 2

And then, there is the gown of sunflowers... they are bright and cheerful --- like the sun itself --- only in flower form... I can't think of another flower that lifts the spirit....and makes  you glow inside and out.... Mr. X always brings me sunshine.....

BABOOM AT FAD EVENT ROUND 2
The necklace and earring set called MarieAnn is intricate and composed of the finest apple jade and rare pink star sapphires... the drop earrings cascade and hint at.... perhaps a mystery of a hidden past... that is expressed in the drape of the necklace and the dangle of the earrings.

The Dragon is Dancing @ the Instruments - Wicca's Wardrobe

Wonder of wonders, the dragon is dancing...stealing the thunder with each eloquent movement... the dragon's beauty unfolds around us... like the blinding sun.... all are in awe...
Hunger of hunger, the dragon is thirsty... darkness is dissolving behind the dragon... a new dawn glows with the fire... flames flicker and turn to fire.... and, yes, the dragon is dancing... the dragon's heart belongs to the one from the mountains.......

This month's inspiration for the Instruments -- an exclusive shopping venu comes from the Game of Thrones -- "Fire and Blood"  and Wicca's creation called Visenya Dress is so hot that Mr. X is breathing fire! The outfit has copper dragon earrings that are simply a must have and shoes embellished with dragons on them. The Dragon headpiece is-- fierce!  It is original mesh and elegantly textured.

Wicca decided to choose one of the main houses of GoT and certainly her decision fell on the House Targaryen, the home of the dragons...we are glad it did.

Miss Poland and Mr. X -Wicca Merlin's New Release

Poland, home of Wieliczka, the famous salt caves associated with Princess Kinga, patron saint of this historic site that has 4 cathedrals carved from salt and chandeliers that glisten like diamonds... a girl's best friend, so I have been told.  Mr. X promises to take me to Wielickza -- he always tells me I need to learn to relax!  To get in the mood, Mr. X bought me the most delicious gown that has just been released and is now available at Wicca's Wardrobe.


This gown is fit for a queen and was actually worn by Miss SL Poland. The colors are Poland's national colors - red and white whose origins go back to the Piast dynasty and related to the white eagle on a red field.  The elegant fan back of this dress makes it distinctive and perfect for any formal event where you want every eye on you in the room.


I love the delicate almost oriental feel to this dress with its sexy corset top embellished with flowers and its lavish swirling floral like patterns in black that float on this gown like wind rippling on the still waters of a pond.  I have paired it with  Wicca's artistically made Abigail Hat with its daring red flower and the dark desire collar.

Create your own "Tarot” is a exclusive SL event exploring one  of the Major Arcana cards each month and features exclusive designs from 22 of the best creators in SL over a two week period; this one runs through July 1. !Lyrical B!zzare has created an opulent gown for this month's "card" -- The Empress.  This gown  with matching headpiece and jewelry is imperial, imposing, regal and just plain gorgeous.

The Empress is the embodiment of all things feminine. She is the alchemical symbol of Venus and is dressed in an opulent gown of red, gold and white -- the colors representing the ability to give and receive love. She is the door between earth and heaven, light and darkness. She is- above all things - universal fecundity.


The crown of the Empress is symbolic of the unification of the sun and moon and the beauty of the stars...representing the unification of the material and spiritual qualities... she is the soul of the earth. Her golden necklace with the symbol of all things feminine is life itself -- she nourishes creativity with every fiber of her being.


The Empress stands  in an open archway... a portal to the future that is something infinitely more beautiful and fulfilling.  Nearby is a bowl of pomegranates... a symbol of love and generosity, abundance and bliss... As  Mr. X and I eat this luscious fruit we recognize the wonder that surrounds us at every turn.

Smesh @ Sneak Peek Exclusive & New Release

It's early summer, just after dusk.  Mr. X suggests cocktails at sunset.  We are enjoying a slow, warm Balinese breeze oozing off the Flores Sea whose turquoise waters beguile like the new cocktail dress by Smesh.

This flirty summer frock comes in perfect pastel colors of pink, blue and yellow with matching sandals for high slink feet.  Mr. X and I are savoring how little has changed in the last 10 years, here in the south seas, me, him and even the way the plantation chairs creak.

I know it was different back then, but wearing this classic cocktail dress... I know that summer magic has arrived.

Smesh is also featuring a new and mod mini dress at Sneak Peak with a asymmetrical hemline, and a  belt that defines your  waist and adds the perfect touch to this look.
Sneak Peek Exclusive 


This mini comes in pink, beige and sky in a sexy lace texture that adds a dash of daintiness.  Matching mules  for high slink feet that are finely crafted with stylish cutouts are also included and complete this playful summer look.

The Decades Festival Vintage Fashion Show, Entertainment, Poetry and Ball June 27

Mr. X and I decided that part of the fun of SL is being able to dress and style with your imagination being the only limitation. As a lover of fashion and history I enjoy dressing up in period outfits from Elizabethan inspired gowns and gorgeously beaded dresses of the 1920s to the hipster clothes of the 1960s.
Sonatta Morales - Sol 

We are looking forward to attending the Decades Festival on June 27 beginning at 12 SL time that will bring the history of fashion to life. Decades was conceptualized and organized by  Freda Frostbite and SisterButta.


At 2:30 SL time, the "What Shall I wear?" fashion show takes place highlighting formal attire for both ladies and gentlemen from ancient Rome through the Boho 1970s.  This all-star fashion show is being produced by  Algezares Magic and Euridice Qork of aQuarela Models and will highlight many top period designers. "What Shall We Wear" showcases how people of different eras have presented themselves in public and how social roles and customs are expressed through their choices of clothing, jewelry, hairstyles and makeup.

L'Optimiste - Silver Elizabethan Gown

The gowns range from a formal toga that could be worn by the wife of a Roman senator to an extravagant 18th century Court gown worn for the most formal of balls held by the King and Queens of France to the panache of a 1930s socialite out for "lunch with the ladies" at the most exclusive of restaurants in Paris, London, or New York. The show ends with a drop-dead glamorous formal gown that reflects today's trends in haute couture.

In addition to the fashion exhibit and show, the DECADES Festival and Ball also features 14 additional major exhibits and 15 live performances and/or interactive events that run the gamut from Renaissance music and poetry to coffee house RP.


Totally non-commercial DECADES Festival on Vahalla Island is being held to raise awareness and funds to support historic and educational communities in the metaverse.

Jumo at June Sneak Peek & New Skin October 4Seasons

Mr. X told me to be on high alert... Sneak Peek is back for the month of June in a new location with so many fabulous designers that are offering exclusives to those in the know before they hit the mainstream grid.  Check out this gorgeous new gown by Jumo called Tropical that comes in a rainbow of colors.

Tropical also comes with two cuff bracelets, a gorgeous cameo pendant, earrings and gold sandals.  I am wearing the new skin by October 4 Seasons called Zulay in Walnut # 5 with this gown.

I love the opulent flowers and and the flowing skirt and relaxed top of this gown that comes in red, violet, pink and yellow.  There is a languid sensuality about the tropics... I dream of Tobago and Mr. X and learning to dance the calypso. Spending days exploring the islands blissful bays... I can hear the beat of the steel band .... on the soft summer breeze...


Zulay is as exotic as its' name and features bold makeups that run the gamut from hot to bold to stunning. Zulay is located in the newly opened Spring Season of October's main store.


 Zulay  comes with two eyebrow colors and a brand new trim. In addition the packing contains  5 makeup options in two brow colors, and 6 natural face options.  I have paired Zulay Walnut # 2 make-up with the Tropical Yellow gown by Jumo.  And below, I am wearing Jumo in Violet with Zulay #1 make-up.

LUXE Paris Fashion and Contest with Maniera

LUXE Paris fashion house was founded 3 years ago by Parisian Skytower, a financial consultant and graphic artist in RL and Mika Palmyra, journalist and fashion editor.... it is magic and -- I love what they create! They also have a  25,000 L contest going on...
LUXE Paris collections are made for the connoisseurs. I love the details they are amazing...   Jolie crop top has a off the shoulder retro funk vibe and  the skirt has perfectly placed buttons with a wide waistband that smooths and slims, Mr. X likes that.
This is one of a kind pattern that takes its inspiration from the 60's and implies...sun warmed hues with a dash of Timothy Leary --- Oh those heady days of the 60s...Mr. X let's find a retro sim and dance until the sun drops into the horizon...

Mr. X and Exotica - NEW SKIN and Styles By Danielle

I make my way slowly to the Temple of Hatshepsut as the sun blazes like a great golden orb transforming the limestone cliffs of Thebes into electrum, the favorite metal of Hathor, my sister goddess.  It will be an evening to remember... of drink and dance and celebration.
I am wearing the *new* skin called Zulay by October 4 Seasons, and the opulent gown called Lynxa by Styles by Danielle -- it is one of my all time favorites.
Lynxa, a gown that is regal  with blazing gold sheer sleeves, the gold accents to the flowing train, the jeweled piece at the waist and the distinctively unforgettable texture. It also comes with a distinctive hat and  matching jewelry that is sold separately.
I feel like a goddess.  To me, this gown proves that if you are good enough in terms of textures and design,  you don't need mesh.

Zulay, October's new skin is the female version of Zulu meaning the heavens or brilliant --- and it is both--- I am in heaven wearing Chocolate Cosmos -- it is  a brilliant skin with so many options that offer stunningly  bold make-up options that run  from cool to  hot - they are all stunning. Let me show you.........
This is one of the softest of five make-up versions plus natural versions that is part of the Chocolate Cosmos (CC) skin pack.  This is make-up #1 with the black brows (also comes with  red brows).  CC comes with lush eyelashes that are oh so sultry!
Make-Up #4  has the most  delicious bright coral lips... I wore this make up with the lashes, the red eyebrow option and can't wait to show Mr. X... he will swoon with delight!
I just can't resist showing you make-up #2 with its' exotic  purple eyeshadow and perfectly shaded eggplant lips with just the right touch of gloss that make the world your arena!

Mr. X & the "in" Crowd New Design by Resun

It happened again, in an instant. Mr X with his Aussie accent mumbles my heart (or was it head) has fallen asleep...ugh time zones...
I say to myself, I love my new leather studded sexy outfit by Resun called Brenda as I elegantly disembark from the taxi into the misty night...this outfit will wake him up!
In that moment --as our eyes meet and he takes my hand, we fall instantly in love again... "Sita, this is stunning... and you look beautiful -- Resun has outdone himself."  I say, I know!!! Check out the sandals -- sold separately they complete this look.
I am in love with the asymmetric design of Brenda's skirt that is made of 100% leather that flows on the summer wind. The rhinestone studded bolero jacket  and belt made Mr. X melt!  I like that. Brenda comes with the Sarah pearl necklace that dangles so seductively.
We will dance until midnight...then talk late into the early hours of the morning.  You would be so easy to love playing softly in the background...there is no place like Bourbon Street. 
Later, I confess to Mr. X that Brenda by Resun gave me even more confidence.  He later confesses nothing, of course. He just smiles and listens.... then takes me in his arms.... and......

Mr. X and the Siren - Poet's Heart's Ocean Soul.......

They tell me I could not be more beautiful... I am a siren, singing against the wind... my songs reverberate against the rocks echoing the  feelings deep inside you.

My songs are haunting, alluring, enticing, soulful, ancient.... and beautiful -- just like this new siren of the sea inspired gown and head piece called Ocean Soul by Poets Heart.
Mr. X Lingers with the Sirens... he lulled by their songs  of life and adventure... the allure of a siren sweetly singing your name cannot be resisted -- you will answer her call...it is only natural.
Ocean Soul comes in sunkissed colors of breeze, coral reef,woodland pond, glacier, dawn at lake, rolling river and sunset by the ocean. The ombre like textures are artfully made with a faint scale like pattern almost like the tail of a mermaid.

Sold separately is the matching headpiece that completes the look. It adds a shell and coral headpiece with a matching color changing hud. It is incredibly shaded and each coral branch can be changed. The headpiece also comes with pearls that match the pearl belt at the waistline, that can be changed as well.  In perfect siren fashion, the shoulder embellishments shaped like coral  float on the air...
Beautiful and lonely. Encased in timeless lore... the siren sings to you of love... you will fall blissfully into the dream.
