I told Mr. X it was sunny today and warm... and best of all -- all the snow is gone... I went to Swank and found a gorgeous exclusive spring ensemble by Sascha's Designs... called Tompounce Magenta it even comes with matching shoes and sunglasses. I love love love this vibrant combination of colors... coral and magenta... it makes me feel elegant and ready for spring. Tompounce is made for classic avatar shapes.

And, will you check out my "escort" floating I love you bunnies from Aphrodite at Heart Homes, the perfect gift for  your girlfriends, boyfriends and  in general friends...they are beyond adorable with their chocolate egg  with a heart of course, roses and the cutest nose and ears ever!  they bounce up and down and  are sooo cute.

Since in RL I am  having family on Saturday... I decided to get in a festive mood... and had to  try out  Aphrodite @ Heart Homes Easter Party Mini Set ... oh la la -- it is so much fun with colorful balloons including  bunny balloons and a table full of interactive food.... YUM !

I am also wearing the *new* moonstone pendant from Emo-tions called Andy  that is an exclusive at ON9-- it is elegant in shape and style and can be worn many  different ways. I love the way it makes a statement and adds style in a  subtle way.

Mr. X and Drusilla *NEW* Wicca's Wardrobe

Mr. X .... I have to tell you I am on the hunt tonight... wearing the new exclusive outfit by Wicca Merlin called Drusilla -- that is an exclusive at  We Love Roleplay. It has a sorta hip medieval huntress vibe to it with its lovely drop  3/4 length puff sleeves and leather bodice with chains that artfully crosses my chest.... like the sweet caress of a long lost lover......

 Drusilla's short low slung mini skirt  has a  belt that is  perfectly placed and oh so very sexy... Mr. X likes that.  Drusilla is made for  slink and maitreya mesh bodies -- and it is so perfectly textured I can almost feel the rub of the leather... it comes in brown and black leather options, I am wearing the black option.  Both versions come with a five color changing hud that changes the skirt and sleeves...I felt black and white today as it is such a classic look.

I like  the minimal clean aesthetic of Drusilla that looks as good from the back as it does from the front.  It is one of those put on and go outfits that is a must have in any wardrobe with the added attraction of  showing off your shoulders and back !  Mr. X tells me I am definitely worth a peek if not an admiring glance...

Mr. X and Nuriel - new Celestina`s Weddings @ Swank

Mr. X told me he dreamed heavenly dreams of a bejeweled angel coming to him... deep in the indigo midnight... she brought him comfort and hope... her beauty dazzled him... just as this new exclusive gown at Swank dazzled me by CW (Celestina`s Weddings) called Angel Nuriel.

Made for mesh and classic bodies this gown with its high waisted golden belt comes with the most gorgeous wings -- they are embellished with gold roses and a whisp of glowing angel light.... they are just beautiful. It even comes with a gold and pearl crown of light...

I love the way the wings are picked up in the design of the ring that comes with this gown... it glimmers and glows in the most heavenly way! The ring fits classic, mesh and bento hands. Nuriel is the angel of hailstorms -- the fire of the lord...

Mr. X... please follow me... the trail of angel dust to another exclusive at Swank  by CWS Designs... the most lovely garden... it is a  heavenly courtyard of delight.... I will show you ....

The garden called Courtyard of Heaven comes loaded with sparkling trees, tables with a lavish banquet, a beautiful fountain and of course angels.....it is really beautiful.

I love all the details that this courtyard offers... it is so romantic and perfect for a small wedding, party or dance or romantic rezz day party. Best of all it comes with a really easy to use rezz box that makes it so easy to place and move around before finalize the placement of this lovely build.

Mr. and Delilah - Purplemoon, TM, DS. ScS, Jumo @ Swank

Sweet --- and angelic in white and gold.... this is how I want to meet Mr. X tonight... and I found the most lovely cocktail  dress by Purplemoon at Swank called Delilah.... it is  a love story... in lace and silk...it is all about lace.... after all.... And, Delilah is  beautifully detailed for a flattering fit...  I love the sweetheart neckline. Venetian lace over silk...it beckons and it is an exclusive @ Swank, and Mr. X adores  dresses like this simple and elegant.... how can he resist?

To add to the romance, I am using the low mesh boardwalk  Beach wood  path with ferns  flowers (2 prims), wand the Romantic Roses  Gazebo (also a dark option) by TM Creation Store - Romantic - it is elegant and so romantic -- the flowers (Summer 4 and 6 Mix  2 prims each)  are so realistic that  I can make a Monet inspired spring garden and so can you!!!

And... for  jewelry, I adore another find at Swank by Luminesse called Niketa Epirus.  It is a finely wrought gold and black collar with a aqua gemstone  that comes with matching drop earrings. The skin is another find at Swank by ScS -- it is compatible  with all mesh and classic bodies including catwa and letuka heads. It comes in many tones, I  showed Meile in a previous blog, this tone is Vivante and I love it -- fresh and sweet and  almost angelic.  The eyeshadow is by DS and is called Fleek, another exclusive at Swank and, I am  a huge  fan of her  eyes too....

Mr. X and Gisa - *NEW* [Aleutia] Gisa and *NEW* Emo-tions

I told Mr. X that as the spring heats up so am I -- in a good way of course and that I found the perfect crop top called "Gisa" by [Aleutia] that is an exclusive at the ON9 fashion event that runs through the end of April. I have paired this sexy top with the n*new* hair by Emo-tions called Meilin that is available at We Love Roleplay as one of this month's exclusives.

Gisa is a unique take on a crop top with a high collar and a sheer silk that drifts down your chest to a puffed out crop top that is deliciously playful and elegant at the same time. The top is easy to dress up or down.  I loved wearing it with  [Aleutia]'s  boho crop pants with their fancy flower cutout.  Gisa is available with [Aleutia]'s signature 30 color HUD as well as with six tantalizing patterns. It is made exclusively for Maitreya and is only 250L For the length of the event!

I really love the Japanese vibe to Emo-tions new hair at We love Role Play with its intricate braid, chopsticks and flowers. Meilin  comes in a full range of colors with a series of different huds for blonde, black/white, red, brown and pastels with three flower options and as well as appliers for catwa and letluka mesh heads and classic avatar bodies.

Mr. X and Muriel * New* Jumo @ Swank + new Jumo Skin, make up and brows!

Tyrian purple known, as royal purple is a natural dye secreted by sea snails on the coast of what was once Phoenicia.  The dye was greatly prized in antiquity because its color did not fade.  Originally reserved for royalty, purple is a vibrant color.  I told Mr. X I was admiring a new gown by Jumo at Swank called Muriel and that one of the colors it came in was purple.

Mr. X treats me always like his beloved princess... tonight I did not see him....  but I  did find a gift box he left for me... with a note..... "you are my my empress......."  how can I resist him... I can't it is as simple as that.  It was a box full of Jumo's new goodies available at Swank and new skin and eye makeup available at her main store.

I love this new silk-satin gown by Jumo called Muriel that is sold exclusively at Swank. It is artfully embellished with a gold sequin outline on the top and feathers at the back...making this gown angelic! It comes made for all mesh and classic mesh bodies. It comes in black, blood, forest, posidon and beflower (worn).

Muriel also comes with splendid gold and diamond ball drop earrings and a matching ring that picks up the rich gold texture of this gown making it a simply stunning statement in elegance. The skin is called Miuccia and comes in bronze, caramel, cocoa, cream, ebony, fraise, honey (worn), pale and porcelain. I am wearing it in the honey tone which I love because it is not too dark or too light... it is honeylicious!  The skin is compatible with classic and classic mesh avatars as well as with omega, TMP, slink, belleza and maitreya mesh bodies. The head is compatible with classic bodies, and catwa and letutka mesh heads.

The eyebrows are new and called Shalom and they are compatible with Letluka and Catwa heads as well as with classic avatars. The brows come in 8 colors. I was really impressed with the red brows they are beautifully arched and the color is perfect.  The smokey eyeliners called Vega another new release by Jumo and comes in 6 sexy colors and can be worn by classic and mesh heads (Catwa, Letluka and Omega).  The new matching lipstick for this skin called Miuccia Lips comes in a variety of 20 vibrant shades and can be worn by classic and Catwa, Letluka and Omega mesh heads.
