Agnes Finney's My Precious, Forever Yours

Forever yours…what a romantic phrase this is.  And it’s not just a phrase of words.  It is the name of a new gown that was released by Agnes Finney’s My Precious in February which is, of course, the month of romance.

To style this lovely gown, I used a similarly sweet makeup tattoo that is available from Noya Designs that has a version with a beauty mark and I also used a gorgeous jewelry set from Virtual Impressions that use diamonds and rubies, intertwined into a rich and lovely design motif.

Inspired by the Academy Awards – Orage Creations, Royal Blue

The long awaited Academy Awards have been announced!  And in the current cinema environment where high-tech graphic technology such as CG, VFX and 3D are becoming the norm, a french silent film depicting a relationship of an older silent film star and a rising young actress, The Artist, has won The Best Picture Award!　　The film also won awards for best director, best actor, best original score and costume design.  Wow, I’ll have to see this film!

Watching news of the Academy Award inspired me to create a Red Carpet look and a new gown that was released by Orage Creations with its Italian designer, Elettra Gausman, was the perfect gown I was looking for!

The deep midnight blue, which is one of my favorite colours, gave this gown an elegance that had no match but with added glam brought on by the over-sized ruffle decor that gave spice to an otherwise simple and classic design.

I matched this with a new set of jewelry just released this past weekend by Virtual Impressions, Majestic Jewelry in Diamonds on Platinum.  The rich floral motif of this jewelry set was more than what I was looking for to complete my Red Carpet look.

Now all I need is a handsome man to escort me down the aisle.  Any volunteers?

Mami Jewell of AZUL custom made this gown for Serene‘s last walk and it is finally released for the public.

The gown is an elegant classic style that portrays Serene‘s very modest and humble personality and yet carries the glam of a reigning Miss Virtual World.

AZUL Saleena Gown Worn With A Corset

AZUL, Saleena Gown in Amethyst & NV Corsetry, Medusa

In my bi-weekly regular live TV program that I host with Second Life TV in SL Japan, I wore one of the latest AZUL gowns that designer, Mami Jewell created for the Miss Virtual World beauty pageant in December last year.  I then added a corset named Medusa from NV Corsetry which was the brand we featured in my show on February 8th which was last week.

All the corsets from NV Corsetry are created by jewelry creator, Alexandra Nichols of Dahlinks Jewelry, which explains the amazing detail that you can see.  And then, her business partner, Khurt Vhargon, handles the scripting of all corsets where he allows not only a three-dimensional editing of the corsets but also allows others to edit the corsets for you, which is the same system as the one Bax Coen Boots are adopting.  This means, even if you are not sure if you can edit the prim corsets yourself, you can always ask for help!  All you have to do is message Khurt and he will be more than happy to help you edit your corset to fit you.

The amazing details of the build as well as texture of NV Corsetry corsets

This combination of the Saleena Gown and the corset became one of my favorite looks and I have worn this quite often since last week.

Since the name of this newly released corset is Medusa, I matched a hair from Wasabi Pills that is decorated with a snake.  By the way, I lived in a sub-tropical country for about two years as a child and I happen to love snakes!  I used to pick up stray snakes (hmmm, I guess all snakes are stray snakes…) and asked mom if I could keep them, to my poor mom’s horror.

From Vero Modero’s Winter Collection – Mistwalker White Gown

Vero Modero, Mistwalker White Gown

Vero Modero has a line of new winter collection items in the store, many of them white or red and lovely to wear for a formal occasion during this winter.

Out of many I decided to wear a gown called the Mistwalker White Gown which is a gorgeous silky gown with a pale animal print top, giving it a silvery look to the over all colour.  Mind you, there is a red one too for those who like to have more colour!

The gown also has feathers attached at the back and together with the large standing collar and shoulder cuffs, it adds a lot of character to this slender gown.  As the name suggests, there was this somewhat mysterious feel to this design which inspired me to make a non-realistic look and this is what I got.

For makeup, I used three different tattoo layers that were all from different creators but worked great together to make this mysterious look.  I tried to avoid making it look too gothic or cyber as that will go against what I wanted to do with this outfit.

Happy New Year!  It’s 2012 and this is my 1st blog post for this year.  🙂  I wish this will be a blessed and better year for all.

And for my very first post this year, I wanted to introduce Bliss Couture‘s “Fur Coat/Sequin Gown (New Year Edition)” which has just been released.  It’s a limited colour fur coat but omg I am absolutely loving this colour!!  Bliss Couture has been releasing a lot of seasonal limited editions since last Christmas and a lot of them are items you don’t want to pass out on.

 Bliss Couture – Fur Coat/Sequin Gown (New Year Edition)

This release is a very elegant powder pink fur coat worn over a silver sequin gown which makes an amazing winter formal look.  Of course, you can wear the coat over other outfits as it uses the jacket layer, or wear the sequin gown without the coat.  The coat will look great worn over casual clothes as well.  The matching gloves I am wearing comes with the set.

Here I wore this with a Bliss Couture “Sasii Hat” in white and a lovely makeup tattoo from VoguE.  This makeup will come with only the eye tattoo and one with lipstick as well which is the one I am wearing here.  The earrings worn here are also a new release from Mandala.

This fur coat and gown set is a new year limited release so run before it’s too late!

VoguE – Steffi Gown

I know some countries have Boxing Day, but now that Christmas is over, I am finally finding some time to post about a beautiful gown from VoguE.  I had taken pictures of these about 2 weeks ago, but I had something that happened in RL that got in the way and I wasn’t able to post them earlier.

This is a gown that was released from VoguE very recently and I loved the graduation of the two colours on the skirt.  Zalyn Bailey, who is the owner and the designer of VoguE, has prepared many colour variations which all have this feature with different colour combinations.  And the all-ruffled top is just so cute!

I also liked how it has this skirt that is completely long from the back and side views, and yet, when you look at it from the front, it looks like a sexy mini dress.

VoguE – Steffi Gown (Royal Blue)

VoguE also has a series of Glitter Makeup in tattoo layers which I am totally in love with.  Although it’s called “Glitter Makeup”, it’s not too glittery and each glitter eye-shadow colour comes with 4 different shades of lipstick, which makes it very “easy to use.”

Orage Creation New Release – Sexy Rhi

Posted on by

Orage Creations by the Italian designer Elettra Gausman has a new release called “Sexy Rhi” which was inspired by a real life dress made by Stella McCartney that was worn by the British R&B vocalist, Rhianna.

It is a very sexy all-lace mermaid gown that is all open on one side revealing the entire body!  And the SL version comes with a sculpty skirt prim that works great with photo shoots as well as a flexi prim version which looks better when you need to walk.  Here, I am using the sculpty skirt prim.

I matched this with a jewelry set from “Jewelry by Zuri” which is a brand BLVD Agency, where I am CEO, did a show for on the BLVD Agency Runway.  This set comes with a choker as well as a chained necklace which can be used together or separately.  Here I wore both the choker and the necklace.

For my makeup, I emphasized the eye makeup, using a cats eye eye shadow with pale nude coloured lips for a more couture look.
