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.

Sexy New Launch From Styles of edo

Posted on October 9, 2008 by Kay Fairey

Mami Jewell, designer for all female outfits at Styles of edo has just launched yet another very sexy gown, “Mojito Royal (pronounced mohito).” It’s practically all glitter!!

The reason why it’s call Mojito Royal is because she has also launched “Mojito,” a shorter, knee length version of this gown. The basic form of the gown is kept very simple, which is probably the reason why this gown does not look “over done” even with all the glitter. The gown comes in seven colours; black, red, blue, green, orange, pink and silver. This is going to be a tough decision to make which one to get!!

The gowns that Mami has been introducing had all been extremely well made and sexy. “Mojito Royal” is certainly another addition to her line of sexy outfits that can be worn to any party or a romantic dance in a ballroom.

Here I matched a classic pearl necklace with ruby ornaments as any gem based jewelry will be a bit too much glitter.

"Farfalla" from Styles of edo

Posted on October 2, 2008 by Kay Fairey

One of the latest releases from “Styles of edo” is “Farfalla.” Mami Jewell is the designer and creator of all female outfits at “Styles of edo” and she has come up with yet another outfit that makes us feel sexy and in style.

Farfalla, which means butterfly, is probably one of Mami’s most gorgeous outfits. It has a top that is adorned by detailed embroidery which she had always been very good at. An extensive embroidery is added to the hem area of the skirt as well. The most astounding thing about this outfit, however, is the attension Mami gives to details. Just as an example, take a look at the see through part of the bodice. You can see how the crease made on this texture looks so real and also how the front and back textures match up in terms of position of the creases. These are tiny details for sure. But it is because of such detailed attention and care that Mami gives to her creations that her outfits have such a quality look overall.

The colours are lovely too. It comes in black and red of course as these are the most popular colours but the other colours are all lovely subtle shades that add so much to the delicacy of the outfit. The colour variations are aquamarine (blue), garnet (red), onyx (black), emerald (green), amethyst (purple) and topaz (light brown).

And here are all the colours.

Farfalla – Aquamarine

Farfalla – Garnet

Farfalla – Onyx

Farfalla – Emerald

Farfalla – Amethyst

Farfalla – Topaz

Outfit: Styles of edo, Farfalla

An Exciting New Release From Chambre de Chocolat

Posted on September 27, 2008 by Kay Fairey

I had been waiting for this moment! Eshi Otawara of Chambre de Chocolat, who has been releasing the most creative outfits such as the “Fishhook Dress”, “Three Woodpecker Dress”, “Julliet Gown” and “Black Phoenix” had come up with another exciting release! “Hibiscus Dream”, released today, is a most lovely and dreamy outfit that takes its form from a hibiscus flower, a flower with extravagant petals and an almost divine beauty.

The outfit comes with three types of clothing layers that is adorned with the petal prims that attach to both legs. The one I am wearing here in called “painted” but there is also a “petal” which is all red and “leaf” which is green. So you choose which one you want to wear and attach the two prim parts that form the gorgeous petal parts.

What looks like particles here are in fact, graphics on a transparent texture that almost looks as if you are emitting particles. In fact, I wore this to a dance hall and was immediately approached by a hostess who thought I was emitting particles. I have to admit, initially, I thought they were particles too!!

This was a love at first sight for me and I am still excited over this great outfit!!

Today, I matched it with jewelries from “the Golden Flower” which will are released very soon. It’s a most charming set that contains a necklace, bracelet and earrings, all colour change so you can change the colours of both the pearl as well as the metal parts to match whatever outfit you want to wear them with.

Outfit: Chambre de Chocolat, Hibiscus Dream by Eshi Otawara
Necklace, bracelet and earrings: The Golden Flower, Girly Ariadne Luxurious
Hair: Exxess Designs, Doggy (black)
Shoes: Stiletto Moody, Pinup (red)

A Cool Racing Jacket

Posted on September 11, 2008 by Kay Fairey

A really cool racing jacket was released by Drawmachine!! I just had to get this being a great race fan for both car and bike races myself! This was a new store for me and the moment I stepped inside, I was soooooo excited to see the items it had. There were also some sexy outfits that based its designs on racing but I wanted something more real….something I could wear if I were to race in SL. The jacket came in 5 colours; red, blue, green (more like Kawasaki lime green), yellow and sand. After taking ages to make up my mind between yellow and lime green, I decided to go with yellow. One regret is that the jacket only comes with the zip opened. So no closed zip version. But that’s ok. It’s not like I need all that protection in SL.

I found a cool pair of biker boots too which was available for both male and female avatars. I loved the texture used for both the boots and jacket. It just looked so real!

So here, I wore the jacket more like a fashion item matching it up with a sweet jeans mini skirt which can also be worn as a pair of short pants. I also wore the latest released pair of sunglasses from my fav sunglass store, ottico. This is colour change too! So I can change the colour of the flame as well as the lens. I am showing it in black and yellow frames in the pics below just so that you can see how the colour can be changed. By the way, to change the colour, all you have to do is click on the sunglass and you will get a drop down menu where you can choose whether you want to change the flame or the lens colour, and then choose a colour from the next drop down menu.

Oh I am just so happy and excited that I found this! I can’t get enough of this racing jacket!

Jacket: Drawmachine, Speedforce Jacket01 (ladies)、yellow
Jeans mini skirt: League, Frayed in Blue
Socks: Maitreya and M*A*ii*K*I, Slouch Socks　(Orange)
Sunglasses: ottico, numero 75
Boots: Drawmachine, Ladies Bikerboots Classic
