[Apartment] Pants

Everyone loves that episode of Friends when Rachel's sister visits and she discovers her "apartment pants." Just like Friends, you'll fall in love with the super stylish suede capri pants of the same name from DRIFT.

Miss Kallisto Destiny really found the perfect everyday pants! I love that even my new booties from Celoe work with the look. No more shoe fits because your cute new booties won't fit.

Most know one of my many loves in SL is the store Kunglers! The sister designers of Ava and Barbra are dolls and just all around wonderful ladies. They've just released a new jewelry line, named Solaris, and I fell for the simple yet bold necklace from the collection. 

Happy Shopping!

Love,
Vi

Sleek and beautifully crafted, this brand new assortment of Innocence couture pillbox, wide brim and fascinator hats is just exquisite.

See the runway show here at Modavia Fashion Marketing's Flickr

[New Blue Hues]

Today I am in heaven because I found the most perfect hues of blue. Machang Pichot of Aoharu is back and the new trench is the most perfect sculpted masterpiece. As always she has a wonderful selection of colors but this blue made my day.



I'm also excited that Nardya of Nardcotix is back and her new rainbow line of the dainty Edith is here. It's the perfect must-have shoe. Sexy yet classic, it will be a go-to shoe for any look. I love the teal color here and it made me happy to find an unsual tone in a stiletto. Stay tuned for more folks, Nardya has much in store.



I'm wearing my new Belleza skin, Melissa. Tricky Boucher has elevated his classic skin line with this beauty. The make-up options actually made me go WEEEEEE! Finally a true red lip! And, I'm thrilled with the soft pink lips and smokey eyes.

Je Suis/Naive nails tip my fingers in the most lovely pink. Julia Merosi and Leah McCullough partnered to create the most versatile nails in SL. They are menu controlled and come with many various shades of pink. You even have the option of rings (gold, silver, rust versions). I'm a huge fan!

Shopping is my favorite adventure in SL and I'm happy to announce that Belleza will be opening soon at GOLden Shopping. Belleza will be along side all the wonderful creators we know and love like Aoharu, Nardcotix, Je Suis, Tres Beau, Pacadi, BAX, BOOM, Insanya, LostAngel Industries, 2xtreme, AKEYO, Ines Creations, Elymode, So Many Styles, C. Smit, No. 07, Kiliebe, and BOA Creations.
