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?

AZUL Saleena Gown Worn With A Corset

Posted on February 14, 2012 by Kay Fairey

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.

AZUL, Saleena Gown in Amethyst & NV Corsetry, Medusa

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.

Fur, Fur, Fur To Stay Warm – Tres Beau “November Sable”

Posted on February 6, 2012 by Kay Fairey

Tres Beau, November Sable

What is happening to the world? I watch the news and I see that it’s snowing like crazy in so many countries! Where I live, it’s been abnormally cold for this time of the year also and people was pulling out their warmest coats and jackets to stay warm.

I wonder if that’s the reason behind this big SL trend surrounding fur. I am seeing long fur coat, fur jackets, fur hats and all sorts but this is not a bad thing because 1. we can stay warm, 2. fur looks better in recent items and more importantly, 3. no animals are harmed to produce fur in SL!

Tres Beau, Novemeber Sable has LOTS of fur!

Now Kimmera Madison of Tres Beau, in her new collection that was just released, came up with this gorgeous outfit set that comes with a sable jacket with really fluffy fur, a matching fur hat and even matching fur leg warmers! And this is not all. You also get pants, shoes, sweater and even gloves in this set. The only items in this pic that was not included in the set were the sunglasses I am wearing!

So if you want a chic and fashionable casual look with class, this will be a perfect set for you. Enjoy your SL fur and stay warm!

Fun And Exciting New Pants From Sascha’s Designs

Posted on January 29, 2012 by Kay Fairey

Sascha's Designs, Paisley Pants Dark #2 Pants & Bliss Couture, Ruffle Coat in Grey

Sascha Frangilli of Sascha’s Designs is releasing a very hot and exciting pants series! It’s called “Paisley Pants” and comes in four amazing “dark” colours as well as another four “light” colours, which is eight colours in total!

Obviously the “light” colours tend to have a more spring-like feel but it’s been really cold this winter and a bit of a spring feel is something we can all welcome as long as we are living in countries that have cold winters. For me, it’s been a tough cold winter this year and I am totally in love with the bright colours of these pants to brighten up my day!

Here, I styled one pair of pants from the “dark” series and one more from the “light” series. For the “dark” pants, I styled it with one of the newly released fur bolero jacket from Bliss Couture for a more winter look.

Bliss Couture, Ruffles Coat in Grey

The Ruffle Coat from Bliss Couture that I am wearing also comes in eight colour variations: blue, grey, magenta, noir, olive, pearl, purple and red. With so many colours to choose from, I am sure you will be able to find one, if not more colours, that you like!

These fun and pretty pants are a great way to add some colour to our winter fashion!

Sascha's Designs, Paisley Pants Dark #2

I made the second look using a pair from the “light” colour series. These are very fun to style too as you can easily pick one colour from the pants texture and add that colour as a point colour to your look.

Sascha's Designs, Paisley Light No.3 Pants

Here, I styled it with a shirt from Coco for a more spring look and an amazing bag from Indyra Originals that is colour change in the main leather part and straps that allows up to 729 combinations!

New Release: Mea Culpa, Time Warp

Posted on August 1, 2011 by Kay Fairey

Mea Culpa has released a new gown called “Time Warp”!

I am assuming the name comes from the head accessory which must be inspired from the shape of a Japanese Kabuto (head gear in Japanese armours worn by the head samurais) in the samurai days.

In contrast to the valiant head accessory, the outfit is a very elegant mermaid gown, making this outfit very appealing and interesting to style.
