Christmas Expo RFL - Frost by Tiffany Designs

Every once in awhile a gown is made that will become a favorite -- because it is perfect for any occasion from a royal ball to a courtly dance... and I have found this gown at the Christmas Expo RFL that runs through December 12.  This gown is simply called Frost is by Tiffany Designs and is an absolute stunner. Frost can be found in the Holiday Exchange area.

Frost is sleek and sexy all at the same time! The skirt is elegantly textured in layers of glimmering crystals that is magical.  The white  cord band at the waist defines this gown and gives it dimension and allure.


What makes this gown really a stand out is the gorgeous jeweled wings done in an elaborate Greek Key pattern that reminds me of ice wings... they are elegant and not overdone... they are perfect making Frost a must have gown for the winter season. Frost also comes with a lovely diamond necklace that adds another layer of elegance to the look.


This gown is far from boring and traditional with its' deep sweetheart cut neckline and alluring winter wings... the skin tight belted bodice and a flowing straight skirt that  falls to the floor.. it will surely catch every eye on the grid.. When my beloved Mr. X saw me  in Frost, he said I melted his heart!

RFL Christmas Expo Dec. 1-12

The RFL Christmas Expo officially opens today.  I will endeavor to bring you a series of tips and sneak peaks to make navigating this event fun and easy... If you like exclusives, the first thing that you should keep in mind is that a special area has been designed for items that are new, exclusive and a limited edition item that is ONLY sold at the Christmas Expo December 1-12. The merchants in this area are showcasing some of their very best work.



The Christmas Expo is featuring a very special exclusive gown called One of A King Gown created by Ever An Angel that is located in the Silent Auction Area of the Christmas Expo.  This gown in  festive green and red is fit for a princess!  The gown is based on Regency novel heroines and this is your chance to step into the fantasy of the novel for a good cause.  As a matter of fact, the first Regency was sold this past Autumn at the Inaugural Spoonful Of Sugar Festival to  Benefit Doctors Without  Borders and  brought in $25 thousand lindens.  That is a "wow" !

POE - !Lyrical B!zzare and *new* Christmas Tree Medieval Fantasy

Mr. X -- I am looking for the mistletoe... have you hidden it... yet again?  Perhaps we need to go on a hunt... and there is a traditional hunt in SL -- a classic -- it is called  Poe - Peace on Earth  and one of the few hunts in SL that is really rewarding to go on...  designers are so generous with their  gifts! This year Poe runs from December 1 December 31.



!Lyrical B!zzare has created the Jersey Dress that has a fascinating texture and a lavish  fur collar that is sure to keep you warm and fashionable this holiday season. Best of all it is free.... just look for the Glowing Globe that will be in each store.


A fabulous find this holiday season is  this  beautiful ten prim Christmas Tree by Medieval Fantasy... it is just gorgeous with snow draped on it's evergreen branches and it's lovely gold bells, christmas ornaments,  red bows trimmed in gold (of course!)  and  the glimmering star that crowns the top of this lovely tree. 


It is perfect outside -- but no worries, the snow doesn't melt so it is also perfect for a cozy living room or family room -- the snowy branches add to the festive feel.

Mr. X and Winter Love Outfit - Zed Sensations

It is winter... the snow is falling... there is the smell of pine in the air... festive lights twinkle... I told Mr. X that there is something so cozy about  this time of year...and leave it to my dearest Sugarfairy CEO of Zed Sensations to design a new outfit called Winter Love's Outfit...it is sweet and sassy at the same time... a signature look for this talented designer -- Mr. X just loves her work and so do I.


Winter Love comes with a cozy knee length coat with a snazzy belt and a really cute fur lined hood that drapes down the back of this coat!  It has a color changing hud so you can easily mix and match the colors.  This outfit is compatible with all mesh bodies from  belleza to maitreyra (worn) to slink and many more.



The dress underneath the coat can be worn separately. It also comes with a color changing hud in complimentary colors.  I love the sexy zipper that is perfectly seductive with the dainty lace hemline... oh la la sugar and spice and everything nice! Winter Love also comes with sock warmers and shoes that have a color changing hud making it easy to coordinate this look.

Mr. X and Brigitte - *new* Jumo

Quietly I drift into the Bay City Institute for Anomalous Research looking for all manner of curiosities... there is quite a collection here by the "Professor".  I am particularly fond of the Egyptian Goddess Bastet and this is an excellent example of her.  Bastet was worshipped as early as the 2nd Dynasty-- she was also the goddess of warfare in Lower Egypt before the unification of the two lands.  To view this interesting collection I am wearing a new outfit by Jumo called Brigitte in Beaujolais.


Brigitte is feminine with it's gorgeous lace hem and lavishly embroidered bodice set off by a belt with a gold buckle that shows off my slim waistline. This dress is compatible with most mesh bodies.


The bell shaped sleeves of this dress give it interest and the wide brim hat with a lavish bow definitely gives Brigitte a  retro vibe.  I simply adore the necklace that comes with Brigitte.  The elegant mineral pendant  made of a rare multi colored agate hangs on a high quality Brazilian black wax cord complimented by a gold clasp.  The high glitter eye makeup and  royal lipstick is also by Jumo and is made for Letuka and Catwa and TMP mesh heads.

Mr. X and Ava - Styles by Danielle 7th year anniversary!

Seven is a magical number.... The number 7 is the seeker, the thinker, the searcher of Truth (notice the capital "T"). The 7 doesn't take anything at face value -- it is always trying to understand the underlying, hidden truths. The 7 knows that nothing is exactly as it seems and that reality is often hidden behind illusions.  I am celebrating the 7 because Styles by Danielle has been designing fine apparel both formal and casual in SL now for 7 years!


Check out the new 7 year anniversary gown by Styles by Danielle called Ava in black it is sleek and sexy with a V neckline, thin spaghetti straps and a cleverly belted gold empire waistline that wraps around your midriff giving you an elegant silhouette as the floor length A-line skirt drapes gracefully around your figure. Ava is compatible with all mesh bodies and comes in 5 mesh sizes as well.


Ava is undeniably chic and is sure to captivate!  It is sure to land you on everyone's best dress list because it is by one of SL's top formal designers.... A special gift is a gorgeous gold necklace made from Styles by Danielle's stylish logo...it's a must have!


Don't forget to try to catch one of Danni's concerts... her live performances are excellent... she sings like an angel!  Cheers to Styles by Danielle and hopes of another seven wonderful years of tantalizing designs!
