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.

Right as Rain - ALL New Sonatta Morales, NSP, Muse and October 4Seasons

The evening yawned. The sky is bruise grey; and it is raining.  I stood long where Mr. X left me. The rain is kissing me, the only way it can, with big liquid silver drops.
The winter rain reverberates and freezes in the courtyard.Mr. X told me he loves the smell of the earth after a soft spring rainfall.  The new dress by Sonatta Morales simply called Rain is like that... fresh and vibrant with it's sleek art deco lines that glimmer like jewels.

The hat by NSP Florals called Madame de Floria is fabulous and comes in both a red and  navy blue leopard print.  The hat is fancifully embellished with feathers, lace and flowers and is sure to dress up any cocktail dress or formal derby attire.
Another new release by Muse, are the Princess Party Heels made for slink high feet.  I love these shoes because of all the thoughtful details -- the ruffles on the edge of the diamond studded heels and the diamond studded bow and the large gemstone at the toe surrounded by more diamonds.  The best news is these shoes come in many colors making them a go-to formal shoe that is just right.
October 4Seasons has introduced a new skin - Jewell in Marigold and it is gorgeous.  This skin is not dark or light, it is just right.   The skin comes with several types of sexy brows - natural, plucked and shaggy, each is distinctive and the detail is pure perfection. The shaggy and natural brows are thicker and sexy with a 50's retro vibe that is all the rage.

The plucked brows have a graceful arch that makes your eyes look bigger and more soulful....the choice is yours of course. The skin also has well toned abs that is beyond inviting, if you know what I mean.  There is even a choice of open or closed lips.  And, Jewell, that little vixen of a skin has a tattoo below the navel that is oh so evocative... just ask Mr. X!

Just to make sure you never ever get bored, October has included a series of 5 different make-ups that are offered with each style of eyebrow making this skin appropriate for endless styling fun.


In the mist of a long winter day,  I dream... thinking back --memories are translucent like the moon in a river.  I  feel the warmth of winter rain as I wait for Mr. X to return.

Singha and Mr. X New by Sonatta Morales - - panther

"dedicated to my beloved singha -- he moved like a panther RL you will see"   .......It doesn't have to be scandalous.  I met Mr. X in front of Fontana di Trevi, late June.  We ate maritozzi and cannoli all afternoon.  Drank amarone all night. Never left a little cafe off Via del Corso.
It was dawn when he finally kissed me. I think I have this right. I was wearing the new jacket with a big bow and trousers in crushed velvet by Sonatta Morales called Panther.
The emerald details of this sexy ensemble was unforgettable with beading on each side of the collar and a gorgeous box hat replete with an emerald and diamond jewel and romantic netting that casts a perfect shadow of mystery around my face.

Singha my panther
The new nails by ghee in 8 shades of green make it easy to match the gem in the hat.
I love the back of this jacket that has the noble face of a panther on it.  Even after all these years Mr. X remembers that my green eyes match those of the panther.
 Mr. X lingers, running his fingers along my elegant new crushed velvet jacket, trying to get closer, admiring my style...enjoying my perfume.

This blog is dedicated to my 6 year old beloved "apple face  traditional" Siamese cat, Singha that died suddenly 11/27 of  a blood clot....i will miss him so much.

Mr. X and the Vortex... new release by Sonatta Morales

You don't know her.  Not formally anyway.  You have seen her on Madison Ave., once at the bar in Hotel Nacional de Cuba, and more than once at the notorious Eldorado in Berlin.
Her companions bend their head toward her as if she speaks in whispers... she is faultlessly alluring in a new red gown by Sonatta Morales called Vintage Vortex --  perfectly named for the whirlwind of netting and glowing red silk that composes this gown.
You've noticed her at times when your life has seemed ordinarily repetitive.  You can't miss her in this "Vortex" of silk  with it's artful netting forming graceful Art Deco lines that flatters every move creating a perfect silhouette.

Vortex is made for witty conversation and romantic innuendo... parties, dancing in the moonlight... slow fade....

Pack light & Mr. X.... Tay - new release Sonatta Morales

Pack light... have you ever heard such a ridiculous thing in your life...this was the advice of Mr. X.... for my journey to meet him....and not a damn porter to be found... not even a sherpa.... but I like train travel... I love the sound of the whistles as they signal the beginning or continuation of a journey.
Most of all I love  the way trains snake along the tracks always providing something new to look at. I also love this new release called Tay by Sonatta Morales.  While I wait to board at least I am warm in this luxurious new velvet coat with its' fabulous fur collar.  If I am in luck, this station will serve tea at the very least... and maybe a stronger spirit to warm me up for this long journey...god knows I need it!
I don't know how Mr. X can miss me in the station when my train arrives... this coat is dazzles... with brilliant colors in a fabulous texture that is pure eye candy. It is as gorgeous from the back as it is from the front !
Oh no, he can't be late again can he?  And worse, the station is locked up tight... so no tea... no rum... not a drop of anything to keep me warm.... so  I snuggle deeper into this fabulous fur collar and wait for Mr. X....
To pass the time, I  light my pipe and send him SOS smoke signals..... "Mr. X Sita has arrived and is in desperate need of a sherpa.... hint --- hint!"  The moon is rising... and I am starving as well.... oh Mr. X --- where on earth are you? Men !!!!!!

Penumbra' Autumn Winter Fashion Week is in full swing through Sept. 21.  Mr. X and I are so excited about this event and all the designers participating in it.. not to mention the shows and entertainment that is planned.  Sonatta Morales has a show exclusive at Penumbra called "AIR" and it is a show stopper!

Graciously elegant in mint green this  timeless silk cocktail dress is embellished with flowers and butterflies that cascade in perfect pastel colors that creates a stir of "air" all around you!
Wow him in  "Air" -- stir it up... in this dress with its'  strapless sweetheart neckline and form fitting bodice -- you are sure to stand out in this dress in a sophisticated way...Mr. X likes that.
The dress also comes with a vintage style hat with green flowers in the back and elegant netting over your face, adding a dash of mystery and fun.  The powder pink  gloves are elegant and embellished with the floral and butterfly pattern that cascaded down the side of the dress and they come with a hud with several hand poses adding another layer of interest and fun.

Eclipse - Mangos - Mr. X & New release Sonatta Morales

Mr. X told me that the new dress created by Sonatta  Morales is called Eclipse.  "Sita, you will eclipse all others obscuring them in a penumbra when you wear this dress... it is sensational!"
The pencil thin skirt is richly textured with a black/ mango orange flock Victorian velvet damask.  Mangos... the most decadent fruit on the planet... of rich sensual taste and color...
Eclipse is classically graceful  with a scoop neckline, three quarter length sleeves and a dramatic satin belted waist embellished by a soft mango colored sash...that is just delicious and makes your legs look like they go on forever!
I love the gloves that come up to your elbows and have a little row of buttons from the bottom of the glove to the top....they are intricately extraordinary.
I recall middle afternoons when the light is filtered through mangos and the scent of citrus is redolent on the breeze...
...somethings wear their becoming in shades of meaning...when eyes meet...then lips......and you slip deeper into the deepening shadows of the afternoon.

Month of Games... Lady Fatale & Mr. X - Exclusive - Sonatta Morales

I think Mr. X is suspicious of Miss Peacock, the a grande dame that maintains her pose and dignity throughout the mysterious affair of "Clue" at Siren Productions Month of Games that runs through July 31.  One of the exclusives to be found there is Lady Fatale by Sonatta Morales that is an instant classic in every sense of the word.

I love the milk chocolate color of this dress; its rich texture and its sleek pencil  styled skirt embellished with artful black embroidery.  The wide belt at the waist  gives you an hourglass shape. Mr. X confessed to me that he likes that...alot!


Lady Fatale comes with gorgeous black gloves that have a hud with graceful hand animations that add drama and a certain exciting flair.

The matching cross over top with black embroidery and hat with its lavish silk veils adds an air of mystery... perfect for leaving those that behold you clueless !

Miss Candy and Mr. X - Exclusive by Sonatta Morales

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.
