Row, Row, Row, your Boat...

don't go very far. Okay, so rowing may not be my “thing”, but at least I'll be looking cute doing it! I owe that to Prism Design, who recently released Leah, and just in time for summer! Leah comes with a shirt, panties, skirt, and belt AND as I said, it's cute, cute, CUTE!

While trying to find the right accessories, I went and did a searching on marketplace. I was looking for something more specific then what I normally wear. Luckily, I found a necklace and bangles that complement the causal chic ensemble Leah. The necklace and bangles are 10Ls each AND you can change them to 15 different colors. Yes, I did say 10Ls.

Because of the recent hot weather already creeping up, the final accessory I added to my ensemble was a sunhat. Sadly, the only way to get this sunhat is to buy the GoGo hair from LeLutka. But GoGo is a great buy too! There is a very good chance you'll wear that hair and use the hat for more than one outfit or styling.

Here's something you may not know about these pictures, the 'wind blowing in my hair' is not a Photoshop trick! In fact, it's one of the newer release from EMO-tions called Windblown 7. I've already had a number of people asking me about this hair so when you wear it know you'll turn heads.

The Moxie of Avant Garde

The thing with blogging is you really don't know when you'll be inspired next. Today, I was inspired when I saw the new PurpleMoon release on the Moxie. I honestly went a little crazy and bought the fatpack for Moxie but for a single color it's $250Ls. It comes with a dress and striped tights.

In the pictures below you can see I liked the blue one best! I really wanted to have some fun with this styling because after all, shouldn't styling be fun? I popped over to Silken Moon, knowing it's one of the best places to get an Avant Garde skin tone that will suit and wouldn't you know, I found what I was looking for, Signature in moonglow. Wanting to make my lips and eyes pop I added Silken Moon's Eclipse butterfly eyeshadow and Luna Blues demin for my lips.

Next I went to EMO-tions and grabbed one of their recent releases Antoinette. Now,  if you follow my blog you'll know I love history and historical fashion. So this hair style was a MUST have for me. Antoinette was recreation of a popular hair fashion trend in the late 1700s.  To follow tradition of the 1700s, I kept my hair color snow. Wanting to dress up my hair, I went to Bliss Couture and found Orliang Hat in noir and ocean. The price for each hat is $89Ls, can't beat that price, and they are modifiable.

Now here's a store I have yet to talk about [sYs]. [sYs] is an amazing store that specializes in urban chic cyber fashion for men & women. If I ever want to take my styling to an 'out of this world' look, I go here. In this styling, [sYs] was a must go to! There I bought the jewelry set called Maya. Maya costed me $380Ls BUT the set be can be changed into 28 different colors. At that price, yeah I wasn't going to pass up! Also [sYs] has high quality in all their merchandise so I never need to worry if the texture or parts of the item I buy are poorly made. I highly recommend this place people!

Finally, I needed some boots that were made for walking. Did that make you smile? Yes corny, but funny! Moving on, I went to Bax Coen Designs and picked up Regency in black leather.  Now as far as the boots go select the length you like. This ensemble will look good with knee highs and ankle boots too. It depends how much of the tights you want to show. Personally, I felt like thigh highs for today but may change it to another pair tomorrow. The way I see it, just pick someone that makes you go 'yyyyoooouchhhh' if you get my meaning.

And there you have it, a the Moxie of Avant Garde! If you have any questions or need help don't hesitate to contact me.

PM Drew me in and...

Finally the computer has arrived! Sorry about the delay in posts, but on Earth Day our main computer died. I was unable to take pictures. One of my favorite past times. Anyway... we, K & I, in case your wondering who 'we' are, have a new computer. Yay and stuff!
Now, being that it's the month of May, my favorite month, I had to start off my first post on PurpleMoon. Besides, this Drew gown is a MUST have before it's gone. (Yes, the Drew gown will be gone once replaced with another.)
The Drew gown is simply stunning. A silk gown of copper, trimmed with a romantic gold design of a bird, flowers, branches, and leaves. The gown has plunging neckline yet has a modest empire waist lined with black ribbon matching the hem of the lower part of the skirt. The Drew gown also come with elegant black gloves to match. The gloves can be worn with or without Slink hands. But.... do you wanna know the price?
F-R-E-E! Yep Free! 
The Drew gown is a group gift for all PurpleMoon group members. If your not a PurpleMoon member the cost to join is 50Ls and a group space. 
Also beside the Drew Gown you'll find the Fall Romance Set from Lazuri, which perfectly matches this gown! Add the Exile Waiting for Tonight hair and you'll have an enchanting ensemble that will have people asking: Where did you get that from?
AND.... how do I know that? I've had a few people ask me already and now they will ask you. 
Happy shopping!

Groovy 60s Chic Meets Modern Chic!

I hope everyone had a great Easter! I know I sure did. It's been crazy during the holiday, but I managed to sneak some time in to show off my newest mix and match fashion trends. Has anyone tired on the Sandra dress from Prism Design? I did and I felt groovy! Even the theme song for Austin Powers started to play in my head. I wanted to grab my gogo boots and go, go! I guess when you try it on, you'll understand what I mean. The Sandra dress cost 350Ls and it comes with stockings of green or white, which is nice to mix it up.

Wanting to add a bit of modern chic, I next grabbed the Vanya Set from EMO-tions. I love this set! Though, my opinion could be bias because I love butterflies BUT the price doesn't lie. Earrings, necklace, arm-band, and bracelet for  299Ls. They also give you a set of choice: gold or silver. I wanted the use the gold for this particular ensemble because the sunglasses from GizzA Creations matched perfectly. The sunglass from GizzA Creations has gold rims with tinted green lenses. These sunglasses can only be found in the Hannah ensemble.

Next, I added Lana hair from Lelutka (280Ls) and then finally the Luna Red Alert 3 lip tone, from Silken Moon. I wanted to give my lips a real punch! The cost of this lip shade color? 75Ls! NOT for one BUT For 4 lip colors! It's an amazing buy don't you think?

Now it's time for me to groove on out of here! Happy shopping and late Easter!

Spring Dress for the Spring Flowers!

I love Spring but I especially love the Spiring Collections! Prism Design has recently released their Spring Rebecca dress. Rebecca comes in 6 plaided colors, the one worn in the pictures is purple plaid, and it comes with a woven wicker handbag. The woven wicker handbag can be worn with 2 poses: bent arm (in the picture) or straight arm. It can also be a handbag with no pose.

But what's the cost of the Rebecca dress? Try 350Ls. Super cute and super affordable!

BUT with every super cute dress you need to add the right hair style. EMO-tions has got you covered with their Nami hair in GoldenBrown. Cost? 245Ls.

Total cost of the ensemble? 595Ls. I know! I know! Not my traditional 500Ls and under but still a good buy! What do you think?

Perfect Runway Hunt 5! Silken Moon & Chop Zuey Couture Jewelery

I am now onto the 2nd post for the Perfect Runway Hunt 5! Instead of doing just one item from the hunt I'll be doing two. This way you can see how perfectly these two hunt items fit together. I love it when this happens!

One of the hunt stops is Chop Zuey Couture Jewelry store and item is breathtaking! This amazing designer Belle Roussel, created a set of earrings (long & short), necklace, four bracelets, and ring. AND you guessed it! Since it's for the hunt only 5Ls.

The second 5L hunt item is from Silken Moon. This hunt item is a fitted mesh Betty corset in poppies. It comes in three sizes, S, M, and L and as you see fits perfectly with Chop Zuey hunt item. Please realize this corset is fitted mesh, which means you may have to update the viewer your using for SL. I learned this because I often forget to update my firestorm.

If you add EMO-tions Shelly hair with HOC Industries Emo flats, and [ZD] Frilled Pencil Skirt, you'll have this total ensemble for the cost of $460Ls! That's right this ensemble is under 500Ls!!

 So whatcha waiting for? Start hunting and have fun! I know I sure did!

The PurpleMoon's hunt prize is the Franca gown in blue. Where is it located in the store? I can't tell but it's worth finding!
