Bedtime Stories by Mr. X and SYS...

As much as Mr. X loves me in a gown... there is something even more evocative, so he says, when I wear something urban chic... and one of my favorite designers for that is SYS.   I am loving this worn deconstructed leather jacket with it's silver chains and black leather collar paired with a black ripped midriff shirt also by SYS.

Speaking of urban, Mr. X is a big fan of urban legends... like the one about the bunyip, a mythical Australian creature that is an evil spirit that lives in swamps and creeks and other murky waters (a big croc comes to my mind!).

He tells me another tale of the yowie... a giant creature that is the equivalent of the yeti or sasquatch in North America.  Some say he is the hulking beast that hides from people and will only engage when provoked.  Others say that the creature is very aggressive.  Either way, there is no way I want to meet the Yowie!

To complete this look, I am wearing wild black and teal  leggings from SYS and fabulous cyber -punk platform work boots... hoping not to step on any toes in these!

Mr. X's final bedtime urban legend was about the choking doberman. A couple who had been out drinking came home to find their beloved dobbie choking and rushed it to the  vet only to find out it was choking on a burglar's finger... eeeks -- that was still in their home!  The owner found the burglar in their bedroom unconscious...I guess if you are going to have a guard dog... that is the kind to have!!!!

Mr. X and the Garden Party - Heart Homes & Morphine Skins

There is nothing as refreshing as tea and cookies in a late summer garden that is fragrant with lavender and heirloom roses... red and yellow to symbolize love and joy... and that is what Mr. X is to me.... plus, I like cookies of all kinds!

For my garden party event I have decided to wear the fashionably  trendy boho style dress by Morphine Skins... there is something romantically carefree about this dress called Jade Long Dress Light making it perfect for a romantic tryst in the garden with Mr. X. This dress is exclusively available through the end of August at the District 5 Indie Market. Jade Long Dress also comes in black... I like the way the dress cascades over your shape...and as always it is beautifully textured.

I have paired this cute flowing dress with Jade Skin in Medium, one of Morphine's new releases. I love the clean look of this skin that comes with a variety of eyebrow, eyeshadow and lip color options, two sets of eyes and a body. It's gorgeous and also makes it easy to layer additional tattoos. As always, the package comes loaded with lola's, phat azz and more.

I will entertain Mr. X with Aphrodite at Heart Homes - Summer Brunch Set ...it comes with male and female poses and allows you to dine together off a menu or read the newspaper.  It even comes with yellow and red rose plants, butterflies and loads of accessories.  Afterward, I shall invite a few good girlfriends over for some friendly gossip...... if you can believe that!

The Summer Summer Brunch Set has  tea and cookies, brunch platters, tea and deviled eggs  --- this is shot at Devils Island designed by Frankx Lefavre so this is appropriate -- feel free to visit and be on the lookout for his new build at LEA 18 -- out of this world literally!   There are  all manner of goodies to share with Mr. X as well as with good friends... you can dine; the offerings are soup and brunch and of course you can have a proper cuppa.  Sit and chat, unwind  and even read the newspaper -- hope these headlines are better than those in RL.

 I await for Mr. X to arrive.... the garden he made is so romantic.... I am sipping tea... and wondering what the tea leaves will tell us.... perhaps that this is pure joy... and that when we see each other I dissolve into his arms as clouds meld into the sunlight.

The Precocious Rook and Mr. X - Exclusive by Son!a

Mr. X tells me the board is set -- squares eight times eight the battlefield. I dress as a Rook that is looking to become the Queen wearing  a luxurious gown composed of crisp squares in black and white with a flowing train ... imposing and regal, ready for battle.  This exclusive at MOG release called  Chess Rook Dress Black & White by Son!a is magnificent.

The details of this gown are lovely.  The Chess Rook Dress includes a garland of white roses accenting  your waistline and another garland of roses at your hip embellished by a black rook.

Son!a has  created a gown  that cleverly emulates a chess board and the shape of a rook. The gowns train (or as Mr. X called it -- the "fluffy bits") swirls and sways with black crepe and chiffon lined with a  charmeuse checkerboard pattern adding the right touch of drama.

The headpiece ties this dress together with its flowing white orchids set in a white rose and embellished by a black rook.

And, don't forget the nails by ZOZ that also have a black rook detail.  These nails are terrific and come with nails for all types of slink hands and several nail sizes along with an easy to use color switching hud.  Mr. X smiles and tells me  I am the most powerful Rook of all because I am his...

Let's face it, Candyland is a "vintage" board game, that said, it is timeless... and Mr. X with his extraordinary eye for fashion thinks the exclusive release called Miss Candy by Sonatta Morales is impeccable in its' timeless style.

This gorgeous satin soft white and pink dress with the hint of polka dots is sure to catch the eye of the Candy King. The fitted sleeveless bodice and gathered waist flows out to a full tulle skirt that flows on the sweet gum drop breeze.

The soft pink tulle bow at the waist embellished by gold accents adds allure. Wearing Miss Candy you will float through Candyland like a sweet summer dream !

Keeping it period in style Sonatta has added a voilette or fanciful headscarf and veil that adds a touch of intriguing sweetness to this look.  The gloves come with a clever hud that you can put on to position your hands and fingers adding another touch of elegance.

Ruffles & Mr. X... Styles By Danielle's new release & summer gift

Ruffles tend to be girlish Mr. X told me.  Not so with the new dress called Chloe by Styles by Danielle.  The ruffles on Chloe are made with a contrasting silken texture and has an asymmetrical cut. These ruffles undulate with every step.  Chloe comes in a rainbow of colors and boasts a gorgeous floral pattern that is eye catching with its splash of iridescent sequins.

The asymmetric lines of this dress and it's off the shoulder look

gives it a light and windblown look  that just begs for an intense summer affair. Think summer thunderstorms.... ah the romance of it!

Always generous, Chloe in green is the summer group gift for July and August...if you are not a group member yet...this is the perfect time to become one.

I am wearing the contemporarily elegant Soul Seeker Necklace and Earrings. A beautiful pendant with intricate  beads is gracefully suspended from a necklace of gold and turquoise conjuring up images of a calm tropical ocean.
