Passion for Purple

Linc and I have taken to going out more when we are logged, it's been nice, we tend to be homebodies or shooting when we are logged in together so making the new years resolution to go out more has been fun. Going out more means more going out dresses and outfits, so bonus shopping for me! I know I am not one to overkill a dress with a ton of add on's and for me keeping it real is pretty much the way I roll in SL fashion wise unless I am playing "dress up" for a theme or event. This is a perfect example of keeping it real, the dress by Hucci is lovely all on its own. I don't need to overdo it with "things". Complimentary jewelry, matching shoes, my favorite quick updo and I am ready to go. I am going to make an effort to do more casual posts and some fun dress up ones too but deep down, simple elegance is always my style.

MLC and Vintage Jewels

Every once in awhile a girl just needs to dress up, it makes her feel good, pretty, elegant and special. Whenever I put on a Mohna Lisa Couture dress on I feel beautiful and confident, but to add the finishing touch a girl needs her jewelry to make a statement, and I found the perfect pieces for this dress. The Vintage Jewels Katarina set is the perfect addition to my Tatiana gown from MLC. The necklace makes a gorgeous statement without overpowering, the gold contrasts against the white gown while the diamonds connect the coolness of the shimmery color of the dress. To show off my jewelry, an updo of course, one of Truth Hair's latest releases called January. This look is not overly complicated and doesn't need to be, the dress and the jewelry say everything that needs to be said, "I feel pretty."

Nemesis

It is rare when attending an event to receive the amount of compliments that I received on this dress because there are so many really beautiful gowns that are created in SL but THIS gown by Mohna Lisa Couture sets the standard above what is the norm for gowns in SL. I could have gotten an inflated ego from all the compliments but I knew it was the gown that was the reason eyes were turned to me. The glittery train, the attention to details, the jeweled accents all combine to make this gown exceptional if you have not been to Mohna Lisa Couture for a gown, take my advice and go now, don't wait, but be prepared for a lot of compliments!

Tyra

Hi everyone, I am back after some RL surgery and work overload! I was anxious to post this look, because I loved the Tyra skin Natalie of Deesses dropped on me and I had a little fit of pleasure over Kallisto Destiny's  new Drift skirt. This fall look is perfect for this time of year where I am, it's not cool enough for a something very warm, and just warm enough you don't want to be all covered up. The old SG denim shirt paired with my autumnal colored tank from fri.day in pumpkin is perfect for the weather. My Leverocci hat in case the sun does get a bit bright is a great accessory along with my Maxi Gossamer Jewelry. I love this look and it is a great transition outfit for the seasons!

A Little Blue

A little touch of blue with some brown, one of my favorite combinations. My friend Kallisto Destiny, already a superbly talented photographer has started a boutique line of mesh fashion and I am in love with what she has come up with, this vest is one of my favorite items of her DRIFT line of fashions and I know I will be wearing this a lot, I have paired it here with my favorite trousers from CELOE but I know I will also be wearing it with a pencil skirt in the future. The touch of blue keeps things from becoming too plain and lends itself perfectly to my MANDALA accessories. The EMO-TIONS hair, one of my newer favorites along with my MON TISSUE openwork wedges which I wish I had in my RL closet! Love this outfit, and I am going to have a hard time taking it off!
