Spring Snuggle with Mr. X - XH&A @ Swank and Aphrodite at Heart Homes

I love to snuggle and there is nothing better to do on a cold -- unseasonably cold... snow included spring afternoon... and I found just the perfect bedroom set to cuddle on by Aphrodite @ Heart Homes called Spring Joy Bed (PG). I love the gold gilded Buddha on the spindle-legged bedside table and intricate design of the bed, with lights that shut on and off... and all the beautiful extras-- loads of poses for couples and singles... even dancing and activities.

Details galore come with Spring Joy by Aphrodite at Heart Homes... check out the other antique bedside table in maple with its spindle leg in the rarest of ebony wood.  This table has a cute tiffany styled lamp, a cactus, and books... above it is an art deco clock and underneath are extra blankets for extra cuddling -- Mr. X likes that!

I am wearing an exclusive @ Swank by XH&A called Maggie Pajamas and Slippers in  cream... they are the cutest PJ's on the planet -- ok ok on the Grid.  They are made only for mesh bodies -- slink, maitreya and belleza.   They even come with fancy pom pom slippers made for slink (flat),  belleza and maitreya flat feet.  I have paired this outfit with hair, another exclusive @ Swank called Seiko by Firelight.

Mr. X Heavenly.. Luxe Paris & Jumo @ Swank

Feeling elegant like a princess ready to enter a ballroom with white and gold gilded walls... tapestries that make me gasp with wonder of their artistry and the music... it floats through the air... I know I look beautiful in this new exclusive gown by Luxe Paris that is an exclusive at  Swank called Heavenly.

Mr. X loves to touch my shoulders as we dance... he loves the drop puffed sleeves and the elegant hint of a pattern on this gown... it is poetry in motion... and, I like that!  Heavenly by Luxe Paris is made for slink, maitreya, mesh and belleza mesh bodies.  It comes in several pastel soft colors... the choice is yours... I  loved the creme.

I paired this with the new hair and necklace by Jumo.  The hair called Skyler is the perfect period hair for this gown, I am wearing straight blondes but it comes in a million hud colors (all great) and also has  appliers for letuka and catawa mesh heads.

The necklace and earrings are also new by Jumo called Mc Jewelry and, I love this set... I can almost hear the ancient silver coins jingle when I wear them... one thing I love is well made opulent jewelry and, Jumo, never ever, disappoints.

Mr. X and Angeline - New @ Swank [LIZ] and Heartsdale + Wicca's Wardrobe

Mr. X asked me to go to an art opening with him and I went to this month's Swank and found the most perfect dress by [LIZ] called Angeline... I love the subtle detail in the texture and the feminine sweeping flair... Mais oui!

I love the sweeping, swoon-worthy way this perfect cocktail dress flows and how it is perfectly tiered.  Mr. X told me it was tres romantique!   Angeline is made for slink, belleza and maitreya mesh bodies and is available in creamy, antique blue, dusty pink and violet.

Mr. X took me by the hand as we entered the gallery and told me I looked like his dream come true... and, better yet, in this dress, I felt that way too!  I combined this with Angelina Light Diamond Set by Heartsdale that consists of two bracelets and a choker.  It comes in diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and turquoise. I paired this dress with the cute new high heel boots called Eve by Wicca's Wardrobe... I think they are so cute. They are made for slink and maitreya feet and come with a massive color changing hud.

Mr. X and the Unicorn @ Dazzle - PC Exculsive

Lost, in a lost world... and then... to my utter delight there is a unicorn in the mist as the night descends with...blankets of cold clouds ---  somehow  I see a glimmer of a unicorn that wears a  crown of  flowers and stars -- I am told they last forever  as my love does for Mr. X.

I told Mr. X that I believe in love...it is omnipresent, omniscient, all-powerful... that is eternal... this is what I believe and so does Mr. X.....and what of unicorns... oh... they gather  upon a shore of malachite next to  a sea of lapis lazuli... under the molten silver of stars and moonbeams.... this is where  Mr. X and I will  dance.

I love this new exclusive gown by PC called Mystical Dreams and is at April's Dazzle event.  It is made for mesh bodies in 5 sizes, I wore it quite easily with my Lara body.  I love the lavish flowers on the gown that accentuate the lovely stole that drapes over this fanciful gown.  Mystical Dreams has a fabulous color changing hud in every pastel color imaginable with an ombre touch.

The best part of this look is that PC had created hair called  Cute Fantasy Hair to match this look... I love the hair and this fancy updo with its hairband of flowers, stars and tiny unicorn horns with a  color changing hud that coordinated colors with the gown is the perfect match.  All of this can be found exclusively @ Dazzle in April.

Mr. X - Wild for the Stars - Wild & Jumo

I am wild to talk under the stars with you exclaimed Mr. X... he takes my hand as we stroll out on the balcony under a light April snow... Mr. X, snow in April is so romantic... it is like two seasons in one... I can see the lovely white and literally snowdrop flowers and the green heads of daffodils begin to peek through the snow...

I feel like a glamorous snow angel in this new gown by Wild called See Stars that is an exclusive through March 5 at Swank and then will be at the main store.  I love the jeweled glimmer of this gown that reminds me of how the snow sparkles under the full moon when the spring stars are bright.
See Stars is made for Slink, Maitreya and Belleza mesh bodies and comes with a color changing hud with 15 pastel colors in three different shimmering patterns... each one has their own allure.

I have combined this with the new eyeshadow called Vistage for Letuka, Catwa mesh heads by Jumo that is an exclusive @ April's TMR.  I love the pastel color of the eyeshadow with its exotic leopard like appeal.  The hair is also by Jumo and is called Mock Firehawk.  I love the Vivids hud that adds swirls of color to this classic updo.  This hair also comes with appliers for classic, letetuka and catwa mesh heads.

Mr. X and Belle's Enchanted - Sylvan Moon and Emo-tions!

Did you ever feel like you lost a glass slipper?  I have... and yes, I have even met a prince charming (Yes, Mr. X that is you of course!).  If you have met or are looking to meet your prince charming this gorgeous bell-shaped ball gown is a classic must have created by Sylvan Moon. Belle's Enchanted is made for a Classic and a Maitreya Mesh body (in many colors) -- it fits mine perfectly.  I feel like  I will teach Mr. X new ways to dream in this gown... and you will feel the same when wearing it...

I love the way the heavy silk taffeta cascades around my hips... it is elegant and so very Cinderella... it sways as if on a midnight wind... it is playful and makes me feel young and ebullient... it makes me want Mr. X to tell me a bedtime story.....

My dream... arms wrapped around my waist... lips -- brush against my forehead... the sweet taste... as he kisses my lips... his hands on my hips... fingers draw invisible numbers... my heart beats the rhythm... and then, the clock...strikes midnight...

A long time ago, there was a country where peace and harmony prevailed. The kingdom was nameless--- and people lived in harmony with Mother Nature, everything was for the best in the best of all worlds...... and, then.....

Mr. X and the Holywood Diva - FOUR finds at Swank Lore'a, Alma, Pink Magic and Oz Design

Swank in  March is downright Glamorous... and this month's  Swank is extended through April 5 - Yay!  And, I found something that Mae West would have loved to wear... by Lore'a called Carla it is red satin and lace --- with cutouts... something that Mr. X just loves.....so will you!

This super flirty outfit is an exclusive at  Swank.  It is made for mesh bodies - slink, Maitreya, Belleza, Tonic, Venus and is beyond adorable.  I love the take on the high short shorts with lace and flowers embellishing each thigh... Mr. X wants to play with the lace... oh la la... The too-cute hair is by Firelight and is called Tami Gen2, another exclusive @ Swank.  The hud is massive and has light and darker shades plus a color tint wheel.

Carla's band-aid style top with matching lace, just makes this so gorgeous!  I paired this with tattoos from OzDesign called Tattoo Element made for Slink, Signature, TMP  Bodies and comes with an Omega applier that works with my Maitreya body.  I really like the evocatively intricate pattern of this tattoo that is great for men and women.

I am also wearing eye-makeup by  Alma called Maria another exclusive  @ Swank. It is made for classic, catwa, letuka, slink, Vista, and AK bento heads.   As Mae West would say... I shall send a call out to Mr. X...." A man's kiss is his signature1"   Wooot!  And, lest I forget, the set is by Pink Magic, another Swank Exclusive!

Mr. X and Rune - Giulia Design and Glitter @ Swank

The room smells like heavy zware tobacco and brandy... that lingering smell that only comes from dark fired Kentucky and Algonkian Connecticut air-cured tobacco leaves... the moon hangs as a crescent and the wind is down to a whisper... like deep water music that echoes... I do miss Mr. X.

Through the window of my library, I look for Mr. X... how I long to hold him in my arms.  I have taken care to dress extra special... in the most gorgeous gown by Giulia Design called Rune that is an exclusive at Swank.  Just look at the detail in this gown and how it ripples and flows... it is almost an embossed look that is oh so very Swank indeed.

 I especially love the red flower at the crest of the ruffle and the diamonds embedded on the sweetheart neckline... so much detail... Mr. X will surely swoon, and I like that!  This gown is made for Slink and Maitreya mesh bodies and comes with a beautiful necklace, bracelet, and ring.

Mr. X and Carina - New Fellini Couture

Yes... it is on the wind... in the scent of the air... spring has arrived... and with that Fellini Couture, one of the most artistic creators on the grid  has created a joyous new gown for mesh bodies (slink, belleza, maitreya and classic mesh)  called Carina... when you wear it you will blossom like a flower... and all the  bees will come buzzing!!!

Carina comes in black, blue, white, pink and red with matching flowers... each shade is exquisite. I feel as bright as a blue bonnet and as gay as a spring breeze ... I can't wait for the daffodils to bloom in April... it has been a long winter... and this flirty frock makes me feel like dancing on the wind...  look at the detail and attention... it is utterly amazing and a must-have for a spring fling!

So Mr. X... are you ready... for spring?   We shall no longer wander lonely like winter clouds... but walk hand in hand --- besides a  lake glistening blue... with moonlight dancing on the water... as Rumi said.... " the garden of love is green without limit and yields many fruits other than joy or sorrow. Love is beyond either condition: without spring, without autumn, it is always fresh."

Mr. X and Belatrix - New Jumo @ Sense event

Wearing luxurious lace, satin and silk I wait for Mr. X in a new gown by Jumo called Belatrix... it is gorgeous.  I wait for him by the sea and feel the salty breeze against my skin... the skirt of this gown that is made of netting and embellished by Battenburg Lace rustles softly...I am watching the shifting color of the sea and sky... in the distance, I hear the horn of a ship... and I know Mr. X cannot be far away.

I love the shimmering tight corset styled top... it comes in four different colors -- each one has its own special glimmer... wearing it I tell Mr. X I feel like a beautiful mermaid.  I love the pattern it makes and the silhouette it creates juxtaposed with the lace and netting of the skirt of the gown.

I have paired this gorgeous gown with a few more products from Jumo including the  new necklace and earrings set called Belatrix, plus the Silken lips made for regular, letuka and catwa mesh heads and Power eye shadow.  The hair is also by Jumo and is one of my favorites called Alessandra because it is so long and regal.

This gorgeous gown is made for Maitreya, Slink and Venus shapes.  The gown, jewelry and hair all have fun color changing huds.   So Mr. X as I watch the last light of day fade, I am expecting your arrival at any second... please hurry and don't be late!

Mr. X and Damask...Ghee @ Sense through April 8

I love the feel of soft silky damask with its evocative floral pattern that is a classic.  Ghee gives damask an update however with her form-fitting Damask Suit that is made for Slink and Lara (Maitreya) bodies.  The Damask Suit comes in boy blue, graphite, iceberg, lavender, mist, and rose.

I love the detail in the jacket with its velvet collar, cuffs, and button.  And, those pencil-thin slacks make my legs look oh so long and sexy!  Mr. X loves the way the pattern swirls on this outfit... I like that fact that you can dress this outfit up or down and that it is good for almost any occasion... you will definitely turn heads!

I have paired this with another exclusive from Ghee, the enameled Rondo necklace and earrings.  This adds the right amount of saucy dash to this look and it even comes with a color changing hud so you can match it with the Damask Suit along with many other items! These items are available at Sense through April 8 and then will be at the main store.

Mr. X and Melody... New Luxe Paris and Jumo @ Swank

We stepped into the garden... shadows all around us. Bougainvillea. Pink and Blue cedar. How many shadows slipped along the walls or whetted the leaves of century plants?  The night palms were clattering like hungry bowls... do you remember the crazy whistling of the island peepers?

We walked hand in hand to the water... walked back... and looked deeply into each other's eyes.  You told me I looked like a goddess in blue in this new gown that is an exclusive @ Swank called Melody made by Luxe Paris.  It ripples in blue sequins like the waves at high tide.  It is made for maitreya, slink and fit mesh bodies.

I love the new Beehive Hair in white ombre by Jumo, it is elegant and retro and altogether timeless.  And, the new rainbow jewelry by Jumo is fabulous... I  love the chunky necklace and drop asymmetrical earrings called Bellatrix also by Jumo that are trending big time on the runway.  With the multitude of flashing colors, this necklace can be worn with so many things -- and looks great with most colors!

Mr. X --Reel DOWN - irrISIStible, Letituier, Luminesse, Glitter Dream @ Swank

1920s - 1940s Hollywood (and onward) boasted a bevy of women who exploded onto the silver screen, not only for their striking beauty but because of their confidence, style, and verve. They were dreamers, pioneers, and yes, feminists, women in the spotlight whose ballsy, modern and even ribald retorts still have us smiling.   A dame that knows the ropes isn’t likely to get tied up. 
- Mae West -- Mr. X likes that!

I love this new look by Irresistible...  it is glam beyond...  and an exclusive  @ swank... look at the hair and all the details...   two top designers made this look  Letituier and,  irrISIStible ---  and   yes, Mr. X...  A 41-inch bust and a lot of perseverance will get you more than a cup of coffee – a lot more. – Jayne Mansfield

I do adore this hair by  Letituier called  Sigma it is beyond whimsical...   I love it... uber coolio...  in all colors... get it @ Swank -- and Exclusive! 

I adore the necklace and drop earrings by Luminesse... they are so opulent...22 kt gold and onyx --- such a fabulous combination... so well done...   After all.... "I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best. –Marilyn Monroe

For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." Audrey Hepburn
