Finds @ Swank Modern Beach House Skybox, Park Place, JS Designs plus Jumo and October 4 Seasons Gift Skin

Wow, it is summer and the Modern Beach House Skybox by Kaya's Ray of Sunshine that is an exclusive @ Swank is amazing. It has lots of rooms, the rooms are large and includes: Four Enclosed Rooms, One Upstairs Loft, One open Main Rooms and One open Back Room on TWO floors.

There is artwork on the walls.  I love this enclosed room with the starfish prints.  I have used the garden set by Park Place in this room for a light and  casual  bistro feel.  Amazingly, this is so spacious -- it is a 30x30 skybox that is only 95 Prims.

The Modern Beach House Skybox allows you to change the sky.  Stand on the patio and look out into the ocean.  TOUCH the horizon and a menu will open with choices for a sky, Stormy, Blue, Sunny or Sunset. The sound of the ocean is important in a beach skybox but sometimes it's just too much.  You can turn the ocean waves off and on in this skybox to fit your mood.  The terracotta pot on the patio has an on/off touch that controls the sound.  Touch the pot and the sound will turn on, touch the pot and the sound will turn off.  I have used Park Place Furniture on this seaside balcony that is also an exclusive at Swank.  I love the peacock chairs and rattan table. The chairs come with  many poses and animations and the table comes with beautiful drinks that you can place on the table that makes this set perfect for dusk....

I am wearing the new gown by JS called Palm Dress made for classic bodies. It is an tantalizing tropical print that comes in  green, blue, red, cyan and pink.  I love the pattern and the  sexy slit up my leg and the deep V-neck of the  bodice.

The necklace is so chunky cool... another fab find at Swank by Modern Couture called Colore Necklace Lime.  It is a perfect necklace for carefree summer fun... and the earrings called Rugaji White are also created by Modern Couture.  They are so artful with a hipster shape and studded with diamonds... perfect show off big earrings. The hair is an exclusive @ Hair Fair by Emo-tions called Joiny -- I love its flowing curls and the way it frames my face.

I decided to wear the new gift skin by October 4 Seasons called Jasmine Flower that is compatible with Letuka and Catwa heads and mesh bodies. Make sure you have the Omega applier for Letuka. The eye make up is Jumo, one of my favorites called Stylesque.

Upstairs there is more  artwork... Don't miss the upstairs in the room is a waterfall piece of art.  The animated water does have sound if you would like.  Just touch the water to turn the waterfall sound on or off.  Now, Mr. X, it is  tropical drink time... meet you on the balcony here that overlooks the ocean... for a nightcap!

Surely he can in this new outfit by LIZ called Island Girl that is an exclusive at Swank.

Mr. X and Rosie... NEW MUSE -- Perfect Vintage Chic

I was looking for something a tad retro and sexy at the same time -- a dress for an uptown party at dusk frockling galore on the eve of a hot summer afternoon... watching the sunset with a glass of rum... over the city..... I found the perfect dress by Muse called Rosie  Sleeveless Dress.

Rosie comes with a fabulous color changing hud that offers 12 colors that range from pastels to deep rich jewel tones.  I love the floral pattern that is etched into this dress that creeps up the bodice with a sensuality that draws the eye up and down and back again, Mr. X likes that and so do I.

Mr. X said,  "Sita, you look as good from the front as you do  from the back.... " Pfft.... of course... (I should ask him now to carry all my  traveling bags... to cross the  street, of course!).  In any case, check out the sexy back of this dress.... the floral pattern climbs up  your back like a loving rose bower.....

Don't miss the striking hat and hair called Rosie Hat and Hair. NO fussing this hat and hair are together.  This hair and hat that comes with a color changing hud for the hat that matches the dress. You can also change the hair that comes with a massive "natural" color changing hud that features 48 colors.  This hair is also available in pastel colors as is this dress.

Mr. X feeling so pretty in this that I think I could break your heart... unless of course you  decide to take me for  a ride around the park .... as the sun sets  we will  listen to the sounds of the city... as it slows down... watching the sun sink into the sea.

Mr. X and the Lady in red CWS for Swank and Emo-tions for Hair Fair

 Mr. X said in this gown that I look like the ultimate "Lady in Red" -- and I said, yes, of course I am wearing a new gown by Celestial Weddings Styles  called London Cherry Dress that is an exclusive at Swank this July.  I am also wearing  new hair by Emo-tions called Lulu that is available at the Hair Fair.

Imagine us, Mr. X dancing, cheek to cheek... under the fireworks this July... it will be unforgettable.  Let's be tempestuous... and impatient... yes, I love having you in my arms again! And, when you look at me, you always, almost take my breath as I lose myself into your stormy blue eyes. 

 I will try to be unflappable... and unapproachable...  but this beguiling gown made for mesh bodies that includes earrings and a fabulous brooch on the pelvis made of glittering diamonds is hard to resist... I know you can't.  

And, then there is the romantically cascading hair by Emo-tions called Lulu that is  an exclusive at Hair Fair where  25% f the proceeds of the sale of this hair will go to  Wigs for Kids thru July 16. You can wear  Lulu with or without the delicate lace and flora and shell hat.  Mr. X says to me, "Sita, you look ravishing... in red... and I have missed you."

Mr. X and Carnivale & !!SMD!! Fashion Contest Finale

There was once a maiden that was an expert at  embroidery... her skill was known far and wide... she lived in a palace of fabulous columns made of  jade and lapis...  the floors were marble and  her chairs were silk and gold  gilt. She often wore gowns like she made.... such as this... Carnivale Baroque by  !!SMD!!.  It is simply beguiling.

This maiden, she wove like Ariandne.  Her corset is made of the  finest  golden threads--- embellished by periwinkle blue bells and roses that she cultivated in her garden...  You will feel so elegantly old world when wearing this.  Carnivale  Baroque Gown by !!SMD!! is made for classic mesh bodies and Lara  Maitreya (worn), belleza and slink. Add an exquisite over skirt of delicate gold lace and a lovely  bow... at your bosom... so sweet. I love the puffy cloud of  gold that forms a classic cascading overskirt.

This gown comes in periwinkle, rose, blush, mint, silver, teal and violet... all gorgeous... get them all.  The maiden weaver only shows her wares to those that are  of  pure heart and mind... she  seeks a prince that will guide her moon to his sun... and they will dance endlessly as firebirds in the  horizons... Mr. X... can you  take my hand... and we polonaise?

July Swank is now Open - Summer Exclusives Abound!

It's July and summer for us in the northern hemisphere is on and so is the new July Swank event... it is just heating up !!  And, what better way to enjoy summer than in a pair of palazzo pants with a lovely V neck top replete with a button that screams summer chic. There are three versions - Juan Dolio, Santo Domingo and Venezia.

Palazzo pants for women first became a popular trend in the late 1960s and early 1970s.  This wide legged style was originally seen worn by fearless women like Coco Chanel in the roaring 1920s and later by avant garde actress Katherine Hepburn, Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich.

Luxe Paris is offering three shades of this outfit - Juan Dolio in green (love this), Santo Domingo in  red and Venezia in charcoal. This is made for Lara, Belleza and classic mesh bodies.  I paired with with new sandals by Loordes of London for flat slink and belleza feet called Medalion Signature, they come in many colors, each sold separately with matching sunglasses. The sandals are an exclusive @ July's Swank that runs through July 30.

Mr. X and Ramona - Jumo Romona Gown and New Eyes

The  clock is ticking... can you hear it...I remember the wonderful moment:  You appeared before me,
A fleeting vision...A spirit of pure beauty. Like this new Gown by Jumo called Romona  Gown 

Years passed. The storm's turbulent gusts---- Scattered the dreams of us....And I forgot your tender voice,  And your wonderful features. In a remote corner of the earth, in the darkness of exile....
 Days drag on....slowly and without divinity ----

Without inspiration   Without tears, without love.   Awakening came to my soul I dream you --- a spirit of pure beauty.   Tears, and love are born. Can u hear me call your name?
