Modern Gypsy – A Tiny Mini Dress

Posted on February 15, 2009 by Kay Fairey

The other day, I blogged about a gorgeous white gown by Modern Gypsy in the Runway Magazine blogsite. I had obtained another outfit from the same store at the time I got the gown which was a totally different style. It is a tiny mini dress that is so fun to style and one I believe can be styled in so many ways. It comes with a wide black belt with a big silver buckle that adds a nice accent to this otherwise simple mini dress.

Today, I added a pair of black leggings from FTV. This leggings set comes with a long version that extends down to the ankle and also a short version that only comes down to below knee length. I used the short version because I wanted to style it with a pair of ankle boots. I love, love, love ankle boots more so than long boots as I think in many cases, it adds more fun to looks. I cannot deny that another reason I like ankle boots is because there are so many people wearing long boots and I always like to be a “bit different.”

The main focus of styling today was the lovely vivid blue colour of this dress. In order to emphasize the blue, I decided to use only black and white for all other items. So I matched up one of my favorite jewelry set from Alienbear Designs. I have been using this quite often but it is a really nice “white” set for the winter season. I would most likely use less of this once spring is here so I might as well use it while I can.

To complete the look, I used this interesting hair from Discord. Again something to add more fun without going “too casual.”

New Fall/Winter Collection From FTV: Part 2

Posted on October 13, 2008 by Kay Fairey

OK…..so I had more than I wanted to show you from the fall/winter collection newly released from FTV (Frozen Valentine Turquoise). Yesterday, I posted about a plum coloured one piece outfit and also a teal blue and black top with silver leggings. Today, I have red outfit and also a chic black and white one to post. Together with yesterday’s post, you can see the wide variety of outfits that is just released. So much variety, so much different colours…..something for everybody.

So the red outfit is called Blood Rampage. It has a prim collar-like neck strap and an asymmetrical prim skirt. The top part is in gradation descending from black to red ending with bright red for the skirt which forms a sharp contrast with the solid black tights that the outfit comes with.

The next outfit is called Illuminati Rampage and this comes in a silver and gold version. The one I am showing here is the silver version and the difference is in the jacket colour with everything else being identical. It’s a pants suits with a black pair of high waisted pants that comes with an almost bare shirt top that looks almost like a scarf that is twisted. It also comes with a thick short jacket. I know it’s not easy to make outfits that look “voluminous” in SL and I love this sillouette.

New Fall/Winter Collection From FTV

Posted on October 12, 2008 by Kay Fairey

So the long awaited fall/winter collection from FTV (Frozen Turquoise Valentine) is finally out! The new collection arrived to the store on Saturday the 11th so better go check them out!
This time, Valenttina Carfagno, designer for FTV, came out with a lot of new and exciting outfits. I love her outfits as they always have a twist that make them look unique and still either very sweet or chic and sophisticated. Out of the many she had come up with, I have Plum Rampage and Breeze Rampage. Plum Rampage is a plum coloured sweet one piece dress with a top that is a big leaf. The prim skirt spreads out from a high waist position making it look like a balloom dress or a long version of a baby doll dress. The key colour is deep plum purple, which is one of my favorite colours and also black. This outfit comes with a long black pair of gloves and also solid black tights to complete the look. It’s just so sweet!

And the second is Breeze Rampage. This outfit comes with silver leggings that balances off the sweet cute look of the black and blue top with woolly arms parts. This top can be useful matching it up with jeans or any other pants or leggings you might have in your inventory so it will be very useful during this season. Here, the colours used are so different from the Plum Rampage I mentioned before. It’s this variety that I love about this brand.

In the photographs below, I matched both outfits with new skins that just came out from Tuli as she opened her new Journey sim. The new skins are quite different from the former Tuli skins which I have always loved and wore when I wanted that cute, girly look. As you can see, the new skins have a more grown up and sophisticated look. Personally, I just love these skins and I can foresee myself using these quite often. And if you haven’t yet, you must visit the new Journey sim. Tuli managed to get great brand name stores to surround her new main store and you can have so much fun strolling around this really sweet fashion district which has trees, flowers, fountations….all the things that we women love. It’s just so soothing and yet the stores are all really nice stores. All you have to do is watch your lindens as for some reason, they tend to disappear when you visit this sim. A link to the surl is provided at the bottom for those who have very little patience and just can’t wait to visit.
