Mr. X in a "Bind" *New* Prey

Despite evident happiness, it was around this time last summer that stories and whispers started to circulate...a crucible of petty jealousies bound them...aided and abetted at grand soirees by the grandest of all society fashionistas... they wondered about her... proclivities.....the sky is the color of fire... just like the embers that stir in my heart.

To make an entrance I am wearing a new avant garde gown by Prey called "bind" -- synonymous with holding something together tightly -- my creative sensibility and flair for drama... a bind can also refer to a  predicament of sorts... an awkward situation that one prefers to walk away from.... but in this dress you will have the confidence to walk right in and as Mr. X says, "wow the crowd" !

If you are looking to make a statement, bind by Prey is the dress to have with its architectural lines and monochromatic tones and its subtle variation of textures.  It is deconstructionist in style with its asymmetric, formless, non -standard dress lines.  To complete the look I added some metallic elements from Violator's jewelry collection to compliment the cool geometric lines of this gown.

If you want to go totally avant garde, bind comes with a handy gas mask that  adds flair to this gorgeous deconstructed  gown.

Mr. X and Lazy Daisy *New* Prey & new build Frankx Lefavre

Reflections at Midnight.....there was an empty space with a glimmering chair floating in the air... Mr. X asked me to sit in the chair... I did... and a wondrous world of light suddenly appeared before my eyes it was dazzling... I couldn't believe the intricacy and details....it was phantasmagorical and transported me into another place.  Amid the glimmering light are legions of  worshipers...or at least that is what I would like to think they are... in this jewel like build by Frankx Lefavre your imagination will run wild!

It is nice to sit here on this glittering shell like chair and just watch the kaleidoscope of colors and lights swirl... I could do this for hours.  Make sure you have your advanced lighting on to appreciate this build that will soon be on display at Linden Endowment for the Arts.

To enjoy the build, I am wearing a new dress called Lazy Daisy by Prey.  I love that it is a balloon styled hemline with a sleek bodice with a diagonal v-neckline making this dress outstanding.  Sold separately are matching "butterfly" sandals called Petal Pusher for high slink feet that are a must have!  The hair is new from Muse and comes with a color changing hud for the hair and for the flower attachment.

Mr. X and Breezy Dress and Hair *new* Muse + October 4 Seasons

I told Mr. X that there is plenty of summer left... and I have found the perfect dress called  Breezy Blooms.  It is  flouncy and sweet... classy and a must have.  Breezy was created by the ever so talented Norena Soir owner of Muse and NSP Florals.  When Mr. X saw me in this frock with matching hair he said two words... instant glamour!  I love the vintage  option of this dress... and could not resist wearing it. It has a pattern changing color hud for the dress and flowers.....and even birds... I  have never seen a bird pattern like this on SL in all my years here!

Breezy Blooms comes in three versions -- Vintage, Hawaiian and Black and White...I love them all but because it is summer and I am in a tropical mood I decided to showcase the Hawaiian pattern...I love the lavish floral print, the flouncy hemline with it's fine netting pattern.

The flowers are special and the details are fabulous and really set this dress apart.  I adore the flowers at each elbow and at  the cute bustle with its fine netting pattern embellished by a flower spray.   Best of all there is a floral hud that allows you to change the color of the flowers and the vines!

Muse has also created matching hair called Breezy Blooms Hair that has a gorgeous a orchard and  barrett. The style is romantic with long sweeping locks that frame your face perfectly and a classic bun in the back... it is enchanting. It comes in Natural,  Colors and Fantasy color packs and offers a color changing hud for the hair as well as for the floral barrett. When visiting the new store you will  find a  grand opening gift of a floral bouquet -- it is beautiful.  The July group gift is the Breezy Bloom Hair!

Mr. X and- October 4 Seasons, Sascha's DesignS @ Swank plus Wicca's Wardrobe

It is late.... and  this is a quickie... (oh  la la does that sound bad?)... well good! Ha!  I have always wanted to blog this hat by Wicca's Wardrobe called "the adventurer hat in sandstone.   I love the contours of this hat and the fact that it has a headband with four animal skin patterns... best of all --- it is  sooo easy to size... this is so important!   It is perfect with my two finds from  Swank -- October 4 Season Skins  and Sascha Designs.
I was really happy to find another offering by Sascha's Designs at Swank called Venice Summer.   This is the first time I have blogged something for Sascha other than a gown or jumpsuit or fabulous dress.  I just love these cargo shorts --- wide  belt and shirt.that reminds of of safari where you take images of wildlife in their natural surroundings.  This skin and outfit is a an exclusive @ swank.

The shirt comes with  a color changing hud  featuring patterns and solid prints.  Venice Summer by Sascha Designs also  comes in two fat packs -- this is fat pack No. 2.  Trust me,  Fat pack #1 is also fabulous --- it is pastels and florals.  I paired this outfit with  shoes also by Wicca called belted heels in sandstone for mesh high feet!


As for the skin... another exclusive at Swank by October 4 Seasons --- Guiselle Mocha.  I love the rich decadent tone of this skin that  features 5 different make ups, plus a natural look -- it  has appliers for all mesh bodies as well --- plus appliers for hands and feet for ladies that wear classic  bodies and mesh hands and feet.

Mr. X and Breazes - Sascha's Designs @ Swank

I told Mr. X that I find great joy in items of beauty. Tonight I received a coverted invitation  delivered by the imperial royal messenger... inviting Mr. X and I to a summer ball... I just picked up the perfect gown to wear --- by Sascha's Designs that is an exclusive at Swank.... I will float like a cloud in this dreamy gown of white called Breazes.


Breazes is amazing  because it comes with four gown options... there is of course the sleek options as shown above.  The sweeper flexi skirt is romantic and perfect for a polonaise under crystal chandeliers...


Another option is the Floof flexi skirt that reminds me of wave upon wave of gorgeous sheer chiffon that ripples in the midnight wind... and beckons Mr. X to entice me to yet another dance...he loves to show me off on the dance floor.


Breazes also comes with an imaginative  bow ribbon hat crowned with an artful flower. The  matching opera gloves include a hud with six hand poses... completing this must have elegant  and unforgettable look.

Mr. X and Polly @ Swank - PT and October 4 Seasons

In dead wake... the sea is quiet... today... I hear the far off call of  seabirds... as they swoop and sail on the salt encrusted breeze... in the distance i see the smoke of ships -- their exhalations that leave the world in a blur --  sometimes... like awaking in the middle of the night... from a deep dark sleep....



This afternoon, I feel fabulous in a flirty dress I found at Swank by PT (Pretty Things) called  Polly that has a ruffled  hemline that sways in the breeze.... and a sweet off the shoulder scoop neckline ruffled top... it is so  cute... and so perfect for a long walk on a lonely beach.


Best of all this PT Polly comes with an amazing hud -- it changes colors and patterns and offers so many looks in flowers and starfish -- in color backgrounds and on ivory that it will simply make your head spin!  This  breezy dress is also available in mesh and classic body styles.


So Mr. X...  I am waiting for you... to help me build a sand castle... we will be a fortress that is  unbelievable... until, of course, the waves wash it all away... and we  create something new... tomorrow...

 It was one of those nights... I thought... I need to stop Mr. X in his tracks...  I have to make him accountable and account for every gorgeous inch of the new  dress called Monique by  Styles by Danielle.  (As a note aside, Styles by Danielle is hosting a bridal show, August 21 at 1 pm SLT at the Metaverse Grand Theatre. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Steine%20Gardens/192/250/3002)


To be honest the jewel tones  created by Dani (also a talented singer-- she will make you swoon)  are  amazing --- It is  chic it is   eye catching it is simply a must have... the textures are beguiling--- yes! ... and the style is well... show stopper -- I was  stopped many times wearing this stunning  dress... I just wish these images could begin to do justice to what Danielle has  created -- her all time best in my mind.


This  comes with a color changing  hud that is  amazing... and will give you  5 looks in one ... each color in the jewel tones is  elegantly enchanting... and --- when you wear this  bejeweled  dress you will feel like a princess... Mr. X. loves it when I feel this way... so do I --- and so will you --- and thank you  dani for this  fabulous dress....

Ghee -- *newsflash* New Store and New Maxi Dress & Mr. X

Ghee has had an extreme makeover!  I mean, Mr. X and I thought they were perfect already... but talented designers always like to  recreate and improve their craft... and this is exactly what Ghee has done.  The store is beautiful and lag free.  Best of all,  for members, there is a special perk --  a re-opening offer - a special edition of our SS16 Maxi Dress in Noir.  This Maxi dress is FREE  for members and for everyone else it is only 50L -- a steal! My advice, join the group... there are always amazing gifts.

Ghee has moved to a new location, and has been completely rebuilt in an elegant French classical style. There is  a lovely park and terrace cafe to relax in, and some nice spots for photos.  This is where I am shooting this blog... gorgeous isn't it! And, this is just the tip of the iceberg so to speak!

Ghee has a  new vendor system, with options for gifting and redelivery. They also have a customer loyalty scheme in place.  The new Ghee SS16 Collection is at the store, as are several recent releases. They are adding stock daily as they migrate to the new vendor system.  Now I am off to SHOP!

Mr. X and Sayomi & Nascha - *new* Wicca's Wardrobe

Last night I dreamed of meeting him again... on a path that wends its way through a forbidding forest... the sounds of night are all around me... I look up...a star breaks -- flashes and is gone forever...I seek his darkest secrets in the shadows of the wind...


And, what better outfit to wear than the new creation called Sayomi by Wicca's Wardrobe that is available at On 9 taking place this July. I love the high waisted Victorian styled hoop skirt with its bows and the artful cage hemline in silver.



The crushed velvet of the skirt is folded perfectly and the texture so realistic that you can sense its softness.  This comes in a variety of colors including black/purple, indigo, pink, pink flowers (worn) purple, red (worn), roses and tropical.


The bra top has one strap that dangles alluringly off the shoulder and is complimented by an hip collar that is urbane and oh so cool -- updating this to a  Neo Victorian vibe -- Mr. X likes this!


I am also wearing a bracelet set by Wicca's Wardrobe called Nascha Set that consists of a variety of wristbands and a necklace (not worn) that is available at TSA. The bracelets have a great color changing hud that make this easy to mix and match with many different looks.

New Design Collaboration... TWA and Blue Moon... Mr. X and Marina

Bee Dumpling owner of The White Armory is collaborating with Solasnagealai of Blue Moon Enterprises and has created a new exciting fantasy brand called  Silvan Moon Designs and it is delicious!  Both creators share the same passion for beautiful Medieval and Fantasy clothing, so this partnership is like a marriage made in heaven so to speak... just check out the gorgeous new dress called Marina.


 The designers have delegated who is doing what in terms of creation... Blue Moon Enterprise (BME) provides the original mesh work as well as the rigging and The White Armory provides the texture work, promotional art and packaging.  The result is quality design that goes into each gorgeous detail.


I love this shift like dress with it's rope belt loosely slung at the waist called Marina that reminds me of something a Grecian water nymph might wear as she explores the indigo depths of the ocean...and celebrates life... under and sometimes above the water.


Marina comes with a dashing hat of seashells and coral...a perfect touch to this fetching frock.

Mr. X and Lillia by Jumo @ Swank

Summertime is picnic time for me and how I love to pack a luscious picnic lunch for Mr. X... ice cold salmon, fresh lemons and capers, a refreshing mango and papaya salad spiked with mint, lime and ice cold shrimp...a beautiful view and a warm breeze carrying the scent of suntan lotion and the faint fragrance of heritage pink roses and lavender.

I found the perfect dress at swank called Lillia by Jumo. It is a floral maxi dress that is in full bloom with beautiful swirling flowers.  It is summer sheer making it just sexy enough without showing all... Mr. X loves the translucent texture of this summer frock.


As with all of Jumo's dresses, a starfish necklace earrings and stachel making this outfit a winner. Matching Lillia shoes replete with starfish and flowers are sold separately.

Mr. X and Isamaya - * A trio of New by Mistique M&F

As yet more royal guests began to arrive, my servants have ensured they are comfortably accommodated in the many small palaces and houses that are dotted throughout the park.  And, the wonderful activities I have planned... after dinner drives under the golden twilight skies around fountains and gardens in a fleet of golden carriages with elaborate carvings and crowns on their roofs.
Alone now in the quiet of the garden, I am wearing a simple gown embellished with a lavish belt with an artful buckle of flowers...it is so pretty and suits this gown by Mistique called Isamaya perfectly.

I love the texture of this gown with row upon row of sequins that glisten like diamonds in the rough. Best of all Isamaya comes with a color changing hud that offers six rainbow colors including: sea green, lime green, gold, pink, lavender and blue.


I take a moment for myself, in another new release by Mistique called Talila - a cute low cut skirt and top that has a Grecian look.  Mistique has also created a gorgeous butterfly cage chair... I love the simple elegance of the caged butterfly chair with it's finely wrought metal cage with nine PG poses comes with  pastel pillows that is edged with a sweet butterfly.  It is perfect in almost any romantic setting -- whether you use it beachside, in the heart of the forest or to sparkle up a corner in your SL home, this butterfly cage is a must have.

Mr. X - A Day @ the Beach @ Swank - Park Place, October 4 Seasons, Selene Creations Heartsdale Jewelery

At the July Swank,  Mr. X and I stumbled on a great beach set by Park Place.  The items sold separately included two pink beach towels at 2 prims each, a  highly detailed rattan hanging lounge chair at 4 prims and a beach blanket at 5 prims that comes in two versions, adult and pg.

There are embedded animations in the blanket (the first to sit will go into the female poses).   Simply right click and select "sit" from the menu.    To change the animations, left click once you are  sitting to get a menu with the selections.    The animations can be repositioned to suit your individual avatar. Touch the blanket - while you are sitting to access the menu and click the [adjust] button.  The blanket also comes with loads of props -- you can read, drink, work on your laptop, chat on the phone and even put on suntan lotion!  It is great fun.



As for the hanging lounge chair, animations are also embedded in the chair.  This piece was set up for only one avatar at a time using the singles animations.  If a second avatar sits, both will be placed automatically into the couples animations.  The chairs are also copy and experience enabled and offer many fun experiences from drinking and reading to cell phones and laptops.


I fell in love with this sexy pink  bathing suit by Selene Creations called Deauville Rose (it comes in a rainbow of other colors). This suit features a deep V cut with a "swank" little belt at the waist and, as Mr. X whispered in my ear while putting suntan lotion on me... it shows off all my assets with tantalizing style! I have finished this look off with the special updated skin offered at Swank by October 4 Seasons - Guiselle Blossom -- it is perfect for blondes and comes with 5 make-ups and even a few natural options, tattoos and is compatible with all mesh bodies. It's one of my favs.
