[paradise]

Quick post to share more goodies from The Arcade. I've paired my latest finds with a few pieces from TDR - Fusion and Collabor88.  So get ready for some serious shopping people!

The fruit hat from Enfant Terrible was something I had my eye on even before the event opened, so when we were offered a blogger pack, I couldn't help but squeal in delight. So here is my take on a more modern Carmen Miranda. My own personal style-paradise.

Enjoy a little tuneage today courtesy of the fabulous Coldplay.

In a few short hours the March edition of The ARCADE will open it's doors. It's sure to be filled solidly for the next week, but you can start planning your shopping attack now. Just visit their wonderful Shopping Guide, and you'll be set for the event.

This round is filled with some super cute finds, and I couldn't help but fall in love with some of the more springy pieces. If only Spring would peek into real life! Seems Winter is never ending here.

As always I'm sharing a little tune with you all.

[Diva]

Next week Halloween creeps in and it's more than enough of an opportunity to bring out your inner witchy diva.  Collabor88's theme for October has been Black Magic, and as the month is coming to a close it's the perfect time to pick up some great pieces before the bargains disappear.

More tuneage today, a little Beyonce for your Diva walk. Enjoy!

[Someone] else

Hello lovelies! It's been far too long since I've had a chance to blog.  Inspiration truly had left the building.  Thank you to the lovely Miaa Rebane for being my muse. I missed blogging and it really felt sad not finding inspiration. The look reflects how I felt like someone else.

Of course, I have a little tuneage for you today.  Please do not judge, but I'm in complete LOVE with Miley's new album Bangerz.  Someone Else is just perfection and it feels like ME right now. 

"I used to believe love conquers all
Cause that's what I felt when you held me
I thought you'd catch me if I fall
And fill me up when I'm empty"

The [Surreal Life]

Designers United opens September 15th and I'm beyond excited to check out all the wonderful creations. I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of the offering from Tee*fy! (Thank my Zuzu!)  It's surreal yet whimsical in such a beautiful way. It made me feel like a beautiful jellyfish floating through life, unaware that my floating tentacles may cause pain. They are truly surreal creatures and such a perfect inspiration for Tee*fy's Designer United item.

Hope you all will pop over to DU 5 when it opens. I'll be there will bells on ready to snatch up all the fabulous designer offerings.

As always, music is my inspiration a little retro Pixies! This had to be one of my fav tunes of the 90s! "I've kissed mermaids and road the El Nino...walked the sand with the crustaceans." Enjoy the Wave of Mutilation!

Fuel[stop]

The September round of Collabor88 opens in just a few hours and I've got a little sneaky peek for you. Let's just say there is a ton of fall goodness just waiting to be scooped up.  I fell in love with the booties from Fri.day and the scalloped sweater from The Secret Store. So, I threw them on and headed over to the fabulously cool PLAAKA sim for some pictures.

Of course I had to mix it up with a few of my favorite finds from The Arcade. You have to love the sunglasses from Glow Studio and the amazing Candy skin from Glam Affair.  If you haven't nabbed up everything from the gachas, you still have 22 days. Someone should do a countdown of that too!

I can't believe how fast this year is rolling by, seems like it was only yesterday we were celebrating New Year's!  Feels good to be heading into Fall though, you can really feel the crispness in the air. You'll be see me diving into some more Fall looks soon.

Oh some tuneage for you lovelies! I randomly heard this song today, Problem by Natalia Kills (Remix). It's totally awesome. Makes you wanna be a bad girl! Enjoy!

The Arcade [Dreams]

The Arcade is open and in full swing! Hopefully you all have been able to make it in and collect some fabulous goodies. One of my favorite collections is from the queen of adorable, Azure Electricteeth of Tee*fy.

The ZZZ collection has some uber cute pieces, like the Fluffy Sheep Hat and of course the Lop Eared Bunny Plushie. The collection has an adorable factor times one billion!  The .click. Pillow Fight set was a great way to showcase my new sleep set.

For us in the US it's our last day of a fabulously long weekend to celebrate Labor Day, and although I should be getting ready for dream land I find myself kicking and screaming hoping tomorrow won't come! *sticks tongue out* Boo work!

The Arcade opened September 1, 2013!  Be sure to LIKE The Arcade's Facebook Page for updates and join the group inworld. For the full Shopping Guide - Click HERE!

The Arcade [Roar]

Happy Labor Day Weekend! Here in the US, we get to enjoy a long and fabulous end of summer weekend.  It turned out perfectly for this year's Arcade. Since I will have off Monday,  I traveled down to the boardwalk to showcase some more finds!

Blogging for The Arcade for the past year has been a tremendous joy! It's an honor to be a part of such a fabulous event. Each round tops the last and that's not an easy task. Thank  you to all of the designers and the Arcade team who work so tirelessly to bring us all something special. Happy Birthday!
  

Gotta love the awesome boom box from The Secret Store! Flashback 80s style and fabulous.  It's blaring one of my new favorite tunes, ROAR, in honor of my rockin' Le Tigre top from Emery!

The Arcade [Bunny]

Happy Birthday to The Arcade!  September 1st marks one full year of gacha fever in Second Life®. This round is phenomenal and I'm really excited to be able to share the scoop with you all. My intro post for this round is all about celebrating the fabulous history with a mix of finds from all of the events last year and exclusive previews of the upcoming edition.

Well I must say I fell head over heels in love with the bunny ears from Half Deer! The one I am wearing is the rare Origami from the September edition. The full collection is adorable but the rare ones are truly special. I really think they will be an inspiration in each of my posts for this round.

[Modern]Safari

The last days of summer are upon us, and I hope you all have been able to soak up every last second. My weekend was filled with hours outside enjoying perfect moments with family and friends.  We all get so busy with our lives it's nice to take time out to decompress. Join me on a little modern safari adventure.

Leezu Baxter never ceases to amaze me! After four years of working with her, she still blows me away with her creativity. Today's new release is no exception. The  Deklannche top is a corseted mesh top that takes bondage fashion to another level.  It comes in three base colors of black, beige and brown. There is a HUD for easy resize and texture change. The reptile and jewel parts have 9 color options.

Anyone who knows me will say I'm a crazy music nut! Check out my new favorite tune from JayZ+JT!

Over the [Love]

Happy Birthday Collabor88!!  In a few short hours, they officially turn TWO. Everyone has joined in to celebrate their anniversary. And by everyone, I mean over SEVENTY designers contributing to this occasion! So, put on your party dress and Charleston on over!!

This month's theme is all about the Gatsby and the Roaring 20s! This decade filled with decadence and abandon leads itself to some pretty inspirational collections like the Loft's contribution, Alder's Living Room. It's art deco in perfection and the precise backdrop for a fabulous little flapper girl care of the Secret Store.

Get your TP's ready to go when the Collabor88 event opens at midnight 8.8.13.  You'll want to be first in line to enjoy this creative round!

My tuneage for this post was totally inspired from the Gatsby soundtrack! Enjoy a little Florence + The Machine's "Over the Love".

It's SUMMERTIME! Filled with hours of sun, relaxation and friends. Go grab your swimsuits and enjoy the perfect weather of SL. Today's post features the The Verona Pool by Nardya Rousselot of The Loft.

Boe Cortes joins me again to hangout and grab a few rays!  The pool comes with quite a few couple and single sits. The poses are great for photos for just hanging out.

Pixel Mode made this fabulous float! With built in animations you are all set for a lazy Sunday in the pool. It was available from The Liaison Collaborative this past cycle and is now at their mainstore.

[Hair Fair] 2013 Part II

Sassy & Attitude

 More coverage from love&fashion BLOG for Hair Fair 2013! Keeping up with the trends of releases has been so much fun. Lots of new styles that fit any mood, like sassy attitude, fierce alternative and girly poshness.

Urban & Fierce

I really fell in love with a few hairs one being an amazing FREEBIE from Emotions, the color options of ISON, and the collection of edgy shaved styles from Adoness.  With all of the really fabulous releases, it was hard to choose. So, I'm really just hitting the highlights here.  If anyone leaves Hair Fair with a linden to their name, I'll be shocked!

Girlie & Posh

Hair Fair is open to the public - if you want to plan ahead, it's probably a good idea to check out the DEMO group so you can map your attack!  Check out the Hair Fair blog for more details. Tons of proceeds from Hair Fair go directly to the Wigs for Kids charity! Shop PEOPLE!

[Hair]fair 2013

Short&Accessorized

 Hair Fair 2013 has arrived!! Let the excitement begin!  For me, Hair Fair has got to be one of my most favorite events in SL!  I get giddy like Christmas waiting for the sims to open, and can't wait to jump in and see all the newness! Trends for this years event - Accessories, Color, & Whimsy.

Long&Colorful

 I went a little crazy this year nabbing up a ton of styles. Lately, there just hasn't been much hair releases probably because every designer was working hard to put forth these amazing new releases. There really is something for everyone from the avant garde/couture to the everyday with a bit of whimsy.

Mid&Whimsy

This is my first taste, I have some more to share soon. Stay tuned peeps!

Hair Fair is open to the public - if you want to plan ahead, it's probably a good idea to check out the DEMO group so you can map your attack!  Check out the Hair Fair blog for more details.

[Love Somebody]

Collabor88 July edition opens in just a little over an hour! This month's collection is filled with a wonderful offering of bright colors and a theme of Midsummer! I fell in love with a TON of items this round and ventured off to the Lula sim to snap some piccies.

The Heather ruffle set from Tee*fy is a mix&match delight. There are over 16 colors/patterns to choose from and you can put together a monochromatic romper or go for a paired ensemble like what I'm wearing. I love the dreamy, sweet and flirty mind of Azure! Thankies my dear!!

The Ceryn Flora antlers from Schadenfreude are AMAZING!  The mesh antlers are completely customizable with the HUD. It took me a few moments to figure out how to get different flower colors (I'm sure there are directions but I never read :P), but I finally got the hang of it. This is by far the best antler set I've ever seen in SL! [See the DETAILS below for a photo of the HUD]
 

On my toes, are the perfect summer sandals from ISON. They fit with the SLINK Natural Barefeet and come in 8 colors available at Collabor88.

Summer is always filled with great tunes so this blogpost is all about Maroon5's LOVE SOMEBODY! Spread the LOVE!

[Can't Stop]

 Mice are invading Second Life® courtesy of the uber talented Systi and Syane Cisse, designer duo of [sYs]. The new [MousYs] ClubWear collection launched today with a party at GOL.  It was very cool to see everyone partying with their [MousYs] ears!

 The collection is themed with an alien mice motif in tribal, skulls, union jack and DJ patterns. The sisters outdid themselves. You'll find tanks, tees, jeans, shorts, skirts, dresses, shoes, sunglasses, and necklaces! For girls and guys, there is something for everyone!

Thank you also to the lovely Mavi Beck of MaVie for sending over some fabulous poses that are now available for Lazy Sunday at her Mainstore. 

I was very honored to model and also shoot the collection advertisement featuring the [sYs] models! [Yes, I was in a hot model sandwich - jealous?]

It's been a super busy couple of months but I'm finally getting my groove back! Expect to see more posts coming.  And to all that need some fun music, I'm loving this remix of MIley Cyrus' We Can't Stop ---- TUNEAGE

[UN]zipped

Quick post today to showcase a sneak peek of the new Fei skin from Elysium that's coming March 15th to Skin Fair 2013! Also, I'm super excited to show off the new Pia skirt from [LeeZu!]. It's a mesh+system layer hybrid with a super sexy unzipped side panel.

I'm in love with Fei!  She's a beauty with lots of options for every lady! It even has a no brow option for a high fashion editorial look.

If you haven't had a chance to stop by Collabor88, be sure to grab the new blazer from Elate. It's fitted with a dramatic flair. There are several color options but a girl can't go wrong with black.

There are a ton of great events running currently. Be safe out there my little fashionistas! The world is full of great finds, shop responsibly!
