Sensational Smesh @ Sneak Peek & Mr. X

Refreshing.  Sophisticated. Mr. X asked me what I meant... Well, Mr. X there is something about soft fabric skimming the chest and hip.  Like this new exclusive outfit at Sneak Peek by Smesh called Awesome & Daisey Outfit.

This hip silk bustier is sleek and sexy... with a zipper up the front and a perfect collar...and, no, not that kind of collar!!  It all adds up to a recipe for style... Mr. X will like this line.

Another version of this look by Smesh is called Lemon and Blue.  Both outfits come with matching shoes and bracelets, rings and even a purse... to hold all your goodies!

Lybra goes WILD ....Striped --- Mr. X all over it :P

 Sometimes we walk a very careful path in life... and we avoid  all kinds of  "pit vipers"  -- I know a few and I bet you do to as well.   After a long hard day  with Mr. X  --- he is  building -- and he is in such trouble with the devil that it is unbelievable!   In the meantime, I discovered this  sumptuous dress by Lybra Rage... words cannot describe..... Nyala

This  gown called Nyala Striped is a exclusive at FFC that is winding up with a huge auction on  April 25.  It  is amazing... the layers  of this dress are like the  intricate designs  of African mud  cloth.  I cannot say how amazing this gown is and how fantastic these textures are .... ... not to mention the touches of red... that adds ..... well you have to ask Mr. X what that adds

All I have to say is be there and get to that auction...  and don't miss Lybra Rage ever -- this dress  -- Nyala  comes in  three options... make sure you get the other two... gold and pink.

Golden Royalty and Mr. X at Fashion for Change

Images of old Peking.  The opulent brocades and silks worn by high court officials, the concubines, princesses and emperor. Old Peking a city of grandeur, a home for artists where people chanted poems in praise of its beauty. In this new gown an exclusive by Paisley Daisy, Mr. X has already begun to sing my praises... how much better can it get?

Naturally, those of us that love beauty will love this new gown called Golden Royalty Gown  by Paisley Daisy; it is an exclusive for Fashion for Change.  I love wearing this because I feel truly "royal" in this sumptuously  textured gown. It is reminiscent of the finest brocades of old Peking.

The pattern is rich and lavish and should be worn with your advanced lighting setting  to get the full effect of this texture whose carefully embossed pattern glimmers in the light. There is an attached cape that flows on the breeze and a low cut back along with a feather like cape that sets the tone.

The Golden Royalty Gown also comes with a gorgeous set of  drop earrings and a lavish headpiece that is fit for a queen... Mr. X always tells me I am his queen.... wonders if he is King of the Road.... with all his walkabout wanderings.... Is it a wonder that 10 or more men amble hopefully behind me as I swirl into the ballroom with eyes my eyes  only for Mr. X.  So come Mr. X let us dance and  create memories in this lavish gown... that is simply unforgettable.

The Scent of Cinnamon - *NEW* G Dubs and October 4 Seasons Rehana Pearl Auburn

Mr. X said, cinnamon --  strong and  spicy --smooth and sweet and me... I walk into Per Se wearing the new dress called Lovetta Cinnamon Harmony by G-Dubs.  I know he wants an answer.  The stakes are high -- and so is the slit up my leg in this smashing gown that also has a plunging neckline and a fanciful striped pattern that encircles me.

The timeframe ended yesterday. I'm just off a plane from Istanbul. The restaurant is empty, just one impeccably dressed man, Mr. X.  Could he have bought out the restaurant for the entire night for this red headed vixen?

Hello Mr. X. In battle, no matter the time or place, you sometimes have to make decisions on incomplete data. Fog is expected. Prepare. Wear something that helps you communicate.... Mr. X-- I will never pass up your gracious offer........

October 4 Seasons has just released the perfect skin for redheaded sirens -- called Rehana Pearl Auburn -- it is exotic in an innocent sort of way, you will smolder when you wear this skin, and so will he. Rehana comes  with 5 different make -ups including a pixie tattoo and the sexiest red eyebrows ever.  This skin knocks them out at a mere glance, I like that!  This skin is at The Makeover Room; a monthly skin & makeup event featuring exclusive items at discounted prices from designers all over the grid. The event runs from the 1st - 26th of each month.

Mr. X and Cinthya - JUMO's new release

It is a game we always play. He pretends it is completely impossible to get ready on a moment's notice, to fly off for a reshoot that was the cameraman's fault. She pretends to agree.  She gets to the shoot pretending to look beautiful.  He pretends to look surprised that she is beautiful. She pretends that she is surprised that he is surprised.

It is not hard to be beautiful when wearing this sleek new cocktail dress called Cinthya by Jumo.  I  love the silk insets that have an art deco vibe that packs a high degree of glamour in the most flattering silhouette ever.

Cinthya comes in black, white, ruby, gold, teal and lavender.  It also comes with matching spike heels with delicate gold chains and a wonderful gold collar styled necklace and gold drop earrings.

A Dupioni Romance and Mr. X - Sascha Designs at FFC

Sascha is another wonderful designer participating in Fashion for Change (FFC) that runs through April 25.  This is a charity event to help Womenkind Worldwide whose mission is to help women in  developing countries.  Sascha's two exclusives at Fashion for Change are stunning and chic in silk.

The Meringue Aqua and Black ensemble comes with an aqua blouse and a black silk shirt as well as aqua and black slacks.  It is fun to mix and match or wear them as a solid colors. There is a delicate beaded texture that accents the slacks and blouse adding the right touch of sparkle.

Mr. X told me that... it happens when two silkworms decide (for reasons only known to the silkworm heart) to spin their cocoons together. From this silken union, comes this dupioni like texture Sasha has used to make this simple iconic shift dress in gold and blue called Sunset another exclusive at Fashion for Change.

Sunset has a crisp feel and the fascinating iridescent look of the finest dupioni silk.  It also comes with glasses that Jackie O would have worn; Mr. X likes that because she is an icon of chic.

It's deep ocean blue that fades into gold. Eyecatching. If you see Mr. X give him a message, "Absolutely darling, as soon as you'd like.  And, cantaloupe, too."

Colors and Mr. X - !Lyrical B!zarre at Saviad

Everything conveys something. Colors reveal moods.  Yellow: Joy. Blue: Affectionate. Pink: Teasing.  !Lyrical B!zaare has created a garden of these delightful colors in two gorgeous dresses and one gown that are exclusive must haves at Saviad Spring Fashion Fair.

The flowing relaxed details of this dress in pink called Sanseveria II  reminds me of the colors of dawn, where the sun is starting to rise into the horizon and a new glorious day of hope ascends with it.  I love the unconstructed fit of this dress with its kimono-like fit and side seams that flair out on the early morning breeze.

The yellow version Sanseveria III has different details like the V neckline and pattern in the center of the dress.I love yellow and orange and they are hot on the runway.  Wearing this I think about the sun dipping into the horizon as I wait for Mr. X to arrive.  The lobster ceviche is ready but the cocktails will take some time...crushed ice, lemon, aperol, whistle pig rye, amaro and muddled blackberry and nectarine.  Does it get any better than that?

The final exclusive at Saviad is a formal gown called Sanseveria I that is unforgettable in a gorgeous shade of blue that remind me of Mr. X's eyes at high noon.  But, this gown is for a wonderful night with its touches of lavender and blue...perfect for a spring dream and dancing  under the stars in a gorgeous garden.

I have paired this look with the fabulous new skin by October 4 Seasons that comes with 5 make up versions, thin and thick brows, butterfly tattoos and options for freckles all over !  It is fresh and wonderful.

Asmara is the dress you have been waiting for. Swing through the spring and summer season in this  dress that creates a stunning silhouette!

Asmara comes with a handy color changing hud giving you ten color options that run the gamut of colors.

I have paired this dress with the new skin by October 4 Seasons called Rehana Pearl that comes with 5 make up shades with options for  thin and thick brows. Best of all it comes with a sexy butterfly tattoo on your lower stomach perfect for bathing suits. Rehana Pearl also comes with a freckle option - full body freckle option -- Mr. X loves this. There are slink and other appliers as well as lip options There is a fresh innocence to this skin that is Irresistible.

So Mr. X shall we take a stroll in the rain and look for the daffodils that are the first heralds of spring?

Get there.

This fabulous exclusive jumpsuit by ghee called Tropicana with its whimsical  tribal texture is perfect for exploration.   I told Mr. X sometimes you have to stop working like time is the enemy and just go.  Let's trace the steps of Stanley and Livingstone through the heart of Africa; climb the San Juan Mountains in Durango and soak in the hot springs in Iceland.

Tropicana comes in four multi-colored textures Fandango, Grapetini, Lagoon and Tango.  It also includes a turban styled headpiece giving the look a touch of that harkens back to tribal roots that make this jumpsuit even more chic. I have paired ---- with vintage sunglasses Awe by Sonatta Morales and new beads from Mandala. For this blog I am wearing Lagoon and Tango.

19,767 miles later... Mr. X and I are still energized and ready to keep exploring.  Mr. X told me a secret I will share with you..."Sita, sometimes you have to get lost to be found."  It's probably superfluous to say that this jumpsuit travels well!

The Queen of Dhukla and Mr. X at Fashion for Change

Get there.

The theme of the event is "ethnic goes haute" and with that in mind, I am wearing the gorgeous new exclusive made for this event by AlaFolie called Dhukla. I love the shimmering leather top with its sexy golden leather laces and the wide  flowing gold on gold skirt  that is perfectly textured.  This is a complete outfit that comes with hair, a head piece and lots and lots of gorgeous jewelry.

I have paired this outfit with the new skin by October 4 Seasons called Mocha Jewel -- it is just perfect for this  look -- and comes with 5 make up options, brows or no brows, thin or thick, appliers and lip options as well. The best   is that this skin is rich in color and accentuates this look and will make you shine... as a Queen of Dhukla.

 Dhukla comes with a lot of  African inspired jewelry.   An  example of shell bead jewelry,75,000 years old is some of the oldest jewelry known and discovered in a cave in South Africa. Tribal African jewelry is made from natural materials such as ivory, wood, amber, shells, bone, metal, hair and stone.  The bracelets, necklaces, waist chains, beading and head adornments of this dress is a perfect example of tribal chic jewelry.

Tribal jewelry tells a story, depending on the culture and the times -- jewelry has been used for everything from defining social status to ritual dances to a form of  money.  What story shall I tell Mr. X when I wear this dress?  I know, I will tell him to support Womankind and donate to this fantastic and meaningful event.

Mr. X & Giraffe Women - Baboom Couture Fashion for Change

A vision of exotic.. burning sun like desire.  Intricate batik patterns are like sublimation textured on this gorgeous Asian sensation  by Baboom Couture called Mandala.  Batik originates in Java, Mr. X and I love to watch this exquisite dyeing process where a wax resistant dye is applied in lavish designs of dots and lines allowing the artist to select a fanciful selection of colors making each hand batiked piece a treasure for years to come.

I remember the day Mr. X and I wandered the lanes behind the Taman Sari water castle in Java a former royal garden of the Sultan of Yogyakarta... a bathing area where the concubines would bathe while waiting for the sultan's choice... hmmm Mr. X liked that idea....

The necklace of Mandala is like the necklaces worn by the Kayan women of northern Thailand and Burma, yes, I say Burma, not Myanmar.  The Kayan tribe has a custom where women that wear the "rings" around their necks to create an appearance of a long neck -- sometimes called giraffe women. Coils can weigh up to 25 pounds and depress the shoulders and chest.. they don't really make the neck longer... some  women enjoy upholding this tradition, others feel pressured to endure the painful custom to make a living..... as an estimated 40,000 tourists pay $8-$16 to stop by the hill tribe villages in Thailand to gaze upon these women and take a photo.  It all comes down to ethics; for me this arrangement makes me uncomfortable.
