Kermit was wrong...

Kermit the frog was wrong. He said it's not easy being green but I disagree. Ghee has made it easy to be green thanks to the current round of Color Me Project. This outfit is just elegant and ladylike. The hat, dress, clutch and shoes are all from Ghee and they all come with a hud so it's not just one shade of green to choose from but multiple shades of green from deep emerald to a light celery and all are lovely. The draped collar and buttons at the waist are lovely details that add to the elegance of this dress and the hat is adjustable size wise bit for me fit beautifully right out of the box. If you are feeling a retro and chic this is the dress for you.

Hair: Paper Couture Parted Hair Base and Small Back Bun in Red
Jewelry: Lazuri Esme Set

Prepared for Some Sun

It's hot here and the best place to cool off is in or near the water, like sailing or sitting on the dock with your feet in the water, whatever is the most relaxing is always a good choice. The one thing that really matters? Are you fashionably prepared for whatever you choose? I think my lying on the deck of the sail boat fingers in the water and feeling the breeze as my captain steers us out to deep water outfit is on point. I have my A Piece of Chic top/cover up to protect from too much sun, #187# flip flops and a gold Charme hourglass necklace will keep me cool and stylish and all these items can be found at Color Me Project Summer colors round, so yay for some one stop shopping! My tote bag I grabbed off MP and it's from TokiD so I can throw all my sun essentials in and I am good to go!

Far From Neutral

Another day, another outfit! This dress is called Mia and its from VG by Victoria Grau and it makes me feel very sassy. It oozes attitude and it comes in various versions, metallic (which I am wearing), leather and denim all in neutral shades of beige which is the theme for this round. Beige is a neutral color but it's far from being neutral, this dress doesn't say middle of the road it says here I am dammit! Kim Kardashian-West despite whether you like her or not is an expert at taking neutral tones to a whole new level of sexy and shapely. This dress does the same the same and with the Mila sandals from A Piece of Chic you can stalk into the room and command attention. It won't take much to complete the outfit, some killer jewelry like this set from Chop Zuey and long loose wavy hair you can toss and peer out from by Truth will be plenty to keep you looking pulled together. To complete the neutral theme, take your room to the next level and with curtains from Icons of Style, and a great little furniture set featuring some nice beanbags with a ton of poses for men and women that can be picked up at a steal at CMP!

Beige Isn't Boring

Color Me Project is in its newest round, this time the color is beige and a lot of you may think that could be a bit boring but the designers have pulled it off really well. There is nothing boring about beigehere, it can be classy and even edgy when done in the correct manner. I chose to go with a classy beige look that is still sexy and relatable. The dress from Sofie's Selection is very pretty with a cinched waist from the simple belt and a sexy slit on the side that unfortunately you can't see here but trust me gives a nice little flash of leg, I really like this dress a great deal. The shoes are also from CMP and are by Klepsydra. They are made for SLINK feet and have a nice little metal spike detail that is color changeable. The Icons of Style shopping bag poses that includes the shopping bags you will find at CMP and are fun to shoot! My hair, necklace, earrings and ring are all from this round of Collabor88 and also worth your time to visit. I will blog an outfit from there soon!

Color Me Turquoise

The turquoise theme of Color Me Project is going on and this dress from Sofie's Selection, I am hooked on. I am going to be cautious here because I was recently told by a designer that I should not be offering opinions or viewpoints that are my own or relevant to only me, that I should remain neutral and/or positive in all the things I blog. I think this kind of defeats what a blog is, but please be assured anything I do blog it's because I LIKE it and I LIKE this dress a lot. it's sexy with it's cut out sides and slit at the leg, low cut and the hood makes me feel a little mysterious. The low cut allows for adding a statement necklace and it's wide enough in the hood that earrings can be worn as well, that's a win/win! The hud that comes with the dress gives you choices of patterns all keeping with the turquoise theme and the very cool shoes are from this round of Color Me Project and were created by Sky. The shoes have some great details and are  made for Slink Feet or TMP feet. I really hope more designers will start creating for my Maitreya feet as well so I don't have to keep switching feet back and forth, the shoes however were worth the trouble. A quick note on the eye makeup, 90% of the time when I add a eye makeup layer to my outfits it is from Elymode, the reason why is because I love the options the choice of colors and style, and that she creates not only the over the top stuff but basic cat liner is colors that don't overwhelm and just accent, I get to keep looking like me with the addition of some color, YAY! Thank you Ely! All the rest of the outfit is listed below.

Color Commentary

I love color, nevermind that I usually am always dressed in black, I actually love color. Being a RL artist and art educator my life is filled with color and that's probably why I was attracted to blogging for Color Me Project. Every round is a different color and gets me out of my black comfort zone. The upcoming round opening on the 25th is turquoise. There is some really cute things in it, this skirt and top are from zOOm and it's cute and quirky with it's tribal print. The skirt has a high waist, is short and tight adding some sex appeal to the whole outfit. I really think I may have to start being more purposeful in adding color to my every day wardrobe! I added one of my new favorite pairs of shoes, ECHIUM from Glamistry, I mentioned them in a earlier blog where I wore an all ivory pair but when you buy the fatpack with ALL the colors, you get so many color combinations you will be wearing these endlessly. The snakeskin accents create a pop of color that just makes them unique and fun to wear. The hair from [monso] called Min is available at Kustom9 as well.

Messy Hair, Don't Care

Look more purple! I had to do this super casual look just because it's just sooo comfy. When I am at home I am definitely a sweats kind of girl and when I saw this Eyelure top at Color Me Project I had to get it, it reads "Proud Supporter of  Messy Hair and Sweatpants". Well yeah, I am all on board with that support! The sweats are from IrEn and are low cut and sexy, the shoes are Flite lowtop Duck sneakers and the hair I grabbed at Collabor88 from Tableau Vivant. Laid back, chill and oh so comfy!

Color Me Project - Purple

Color Me Project newest round is purple which is my favorite color outside of black so I was pretty excited about this round. Real life has been kicking my ass and it's hard to find time for SL lately but I had to get me some purple love published! The dress is flirty and sexy and you should definitely be wearing some panties if you don't want to flash anyone while bending over or going a flight of stairs but if you like causing a little stir, then by all means flash away! I won't tell you if I am wearing any or not ;-)

The dress if from FLRN Design and the shoes are sexy times two from VG Shoes, I love the wood heel and platform, keeps them from being too formal and nice for everyday wear. Both items are at Color Me Project! Go, hurry, get some purple in your life!

Night Time is the Right Time

I have been out in NYC for a bit and finally returned home and there are so many great things needing to be blogged! I am very excited and super inspired after spending some time people watching and shopping when I wasn't working. Night time was my favorite time to people watch, the styles and individuality especially in the East Village was fun to take in. I think I need to be bolder in some of my fashion choices! So in that thought in mind I put together this outfit with pieces from this round of Color Me Project which features black as the color,  my all time favorite go to fashion color and from Glamistry's Kustom9 releases. It's sexy, bold and definitely has attitude for days. The shoes have a great hud for customizing and have all kinds of stylish details in the chain and heels, and the sunglasses, are just plain cool. The Jinx fur cape is fun and well made as well as the Xen Hat's Fedora and Wertina biker pants. Check out both events, there will be something for you at each one!
