Mr. X and Siri new [Aleutia] & Emo-tions Jewelry "All Those Kisses"

It is the weekend... and what to wear --- is always a question... but [Aleutia]'s new design called "Siri" makes it an easy choice with tons of variation... Mr. X likes that.  This is perfect for gossip and rum at the port of call...later dinner outdoors under soft lights -- the fragrance of orange in the air....

Siri  is a luscious one piece bodysuit that is sleek and sensual and perfect to make a bold statement. The slink silk bodice accentuates the sexy sheer  silk cutouts while the suit hugs a woman's curves in a fabulous fit that will have heads turning.

The first version of Siri is available with [Aleutia]'s signature 30 color HUD.  This hud allows you to mix and match this outfit in solid colors.

The second version of Siri includes 12 flamboyant prints -- each one prettier than the next... plus it has a 30 color  hud for the sheer cutouts giving the prints endless  variety.  Siri is 100% Original Mesh and an exclusive Maitreya Design.  It is available at Cosmopolitan through May 20 and is only 250L For the length of the event!

I have paired Siri with a new jewelry release by Em-tions called "All Those Kisses" (good god, Mr. X knows how I love those!!).  I have a personal fondness for turquoise in both lives and this release is gorgeous with its chunky bracelet, gorgeous oval ring that reminds me of a Zuni  ring and charming arrowhead necklace all in finely wrought silver. It has a Native American vibe... which I love...to Native Americans, turquoise is simply -- life...the earth is alive with all things... no matter how large or small...and this is something we must all respect. An exclusive @ ON9 through May 31.

Mr. X and Roman Holiday @ Swank -Prey, GW, Glitter & Moondance 7 emo-tions

I told Mr. X that Audrey Hepburn was the third choice behind Jean Simmons and Elizabeth Taylor  for that classic movie "Roman Holiday".  Really, can you imagine it with anyone else?  I can't and neither can Mr. X. The new frock by Prey that is an exclusive @ Swank called Akamu is the perfect sorta dress to fall asleep in on a park bench.... and wake up safe and sound in an American Reporter's apartment... for safe keeping of course!

 I love this retro chic  neutral styled bubble dress carefully embellished  with flowers.  It has a very "swank" high waistline and sleek  V neck multi toned silk bodice in a lighter neutral shade. Akamu is made for maitreya mesh and classic mesh bodies.   I am wearing shoes from Swank by GW called Spring Stiletto.  They are made for slink high feet and come with a color changing hud that offers 5 solids and 5 floral pattern colors.

The necklace by Moondance Jewels called Dew Drop is also an exclusive at Swank and comes with two bracelets, two rings and a lovely necklace.  Life can be quite unexpected-- and wearing this retro chic dress, you might just be the very thing they just don't expect... and that is great fun indeed....

As Princess Anne Said in Roman Holiday...At midnight, I'll turn into a pumpkin and drive away in my glass slipper. Joe replied... And that will be the end of the fairy tale.

Mr. X and Marlyn - *New* Sascha's Designs

There is something about black leather... things go in and out of style... but Mr. X tells me and I agree that black leather is timeless... and this new outfit called Marlyn by Sascha's Designs sizzles.... there is no way to avoid it ----and more to the point... they all can't stop staring!

And I love these sleek skin tight mini  shorts with their high waist and the asymmetrical crop  jacket with luscious silver studs.  The jacket has  a big silver button on the high neckline that beckons.... to be undone....Marlyn comes in black, choco, gold, pink, red and silver.  It is made for all mesh and classic mesh fit bodies.

And--- don't forget the boots with silver studs... they are made for slink, maitreya and belleza feet....and  they are fabulous.... aren't they....

Mr. X and Green Tara -3-Eye Designs and {Letituier} & Isa d'orable @ Swank

I asked Mr. X where is the  shaman... is everyone a shaman...  and then the fog of enlightenment descends... slowly like silver silvers of the moon... where everyone is a philosopher... everything is  divine... and most simply put,  everyone can turn a blind third -eye... to this subtle , intangible SL world... and yes... I found the most amazing find...  by 3-Eye Designs called the  Ruins of Tara..... that is an exclusive @ Swank....

For me,  तारा, tārā is the goddess of regeneration and hope... and I  dream on her and with her... like the great mother, she surrounds us... in an eternal embrace. Green Tārā, (śyāmatārā) is known as the Buddha of enlightened activity... and, for me,  SL can be, or should I say  is an "enlightened" or shall I say, enlightening(!) activity.  This fabulous sculpture and garden by  3-Eye Designs comes with  8 poses and 4 meditation poses...  that brings peace and  tranquility....it perfectly rendered, prim light and a must must have...  It will be one thing I will keep always.... 

Green Tara ... as radiant as the full moon she obscures pride and  ignorance... desire and attachments... hatred and anger... a  saviouress of compassion and beauty... she waits... and this  Green Tara is  is serene and beautiful... I wait as always, for Mr. X with  calm now.

This gown called Chinese Dragon Kiss is by Isa d'Orable she has many items -- equally as unique at this month's Swank (to be blogged later) -- I just love this gown that has a color changing hud and is compatible with mesh bodies.

I am also  wearing Taema Hair hair by {Letituier} that is an exlusive at Swank. This avant garde hair reminds me of a temple with its gold wired embellished buns  that rise like a Stupa...  in the light of  dawn.  This hair comes with a color changing hud and is compatible with mesh and non mesh heads.

Mr. X and Grace [ZEX] & Glitter @ Swank

I told Mr. X this new dress by [ZEX] called Grace begs for an exclusive enclave... one that is so exclusive that residents are prohibited from parking their pick up trucks in their own driveways.... I sorta like that! So much more early to bed than Miami Beach... and that is ok too.

Grace is the  perfect dress to explore the mixed breed classic Palladian and antebellum plantation style house that is called Coral Gables.  This eccentric manor's gardens are well worth a gander and the hat that comes with Grace is sure to protect you from the sun. As a matter of fact, the hat and matching shoes come with a matching 20 color and pattern changing hud that you can match with this dress.

For me, nothing says summer like a cute backless dress... that is sure to keep you cool when things "heat up"!  And, Grace doesn't disappoint. It is made for mesh bodies (slink, belleza, mairtreya) as well as fitted mesh bodies. It has a lovely color changing hud that offers both solid colors in this years trendiest colors as well as floral and zig zag abstract patterns... giving you tons of options.  It is like 20 dresses in one.

Grace also comes with a fabulous necklace, earrings and bracelet in chunky goodness.  I have used the new Swank poses called Emma by Glitter.  So Mr. X, meet me by the Venetian Pool on de Soto Blvd for a drink... and afterward... perhaps.... we will make a splash!

Mr. X and Consuelo - Jumo @ Swank

Swank is open for wild spring nights...and days through May 31... and what better way to start off the month than with the beautiful new gown by Jumo called Consuelo ! Somehow with its ocean appliques of fish and shells... this gown makes me feel like a beloved siren of the sea....

The Consuelo gown  by Jumo was inspired on the Wild Spring nights.  What I like best of all is that with the hud you have a choice of fabrics.  You can choose the Gabbana fishnet  that is embellished by beautiful marine life sequins appliques.

Or you can wear Consuelo gow using the lace version that is embellished with sequins embroidery. There are  five colors for each version in the hud.  This is Consuelo Gown is a Rigged Mesh Gown + Panties and alpha layer (for Fitted Sizes), Maitreya, Belleza, TMP and Slink versions with a 10 textures in a HUD to change the gown.

The Consuelo gown also comes with a beautiful necklace and earring set that is in the form of an onyx cross that is embellished with ancient coins -- surely a gift from Poseidon himself!

I am  wearing a fabulous Jumpsuit by Prism called Alexus Rain Forest. It is made for classic mesh  and maitreya,  belleza and slink bodies.  I love the abstract pattern of the legs combined with the silk belt at the waist  and the sexy one shoulder  bodice.  It can be worn just about anywhere on the grid because it is casually elegant. The Hint is find a dock on the lake and reach for the stars. There's a ladder nearby if you need it! And for men there is an outfit that hint is Next to the suits.
