Cool Tank Tops From Symptom

One day I came across this store called Symptom. On my first visit, I landed on a point where I saw no stores around. I first thought it hadn’t rezzed yet so I waited there….and waited…and waited and there was still no store! But then I noticed a big hole with a sign board aboe it that said “SYMPTOM” so I decided to fall into it. There it was, a store that looked more like an obscure underground base.

Intrigued by this unique store design, I walked around inside the store and found lots of really cool tank tops, T-shirts and various other items that designer Xan Pixel created for his store.

Rock City is a brand new tank top that he just launched with a very interesting texture. Red is the only colour variation sold but that’s because you can edit and change the colour to whatever colour you want. I matched it up with a pair of torn jeans and also an interesting belt I found in Izumiya, a Japanese store where most of the items are either free or super cheap like L$5.

As for the store itself, I liked the store design so much that I decided to do a photo shoot inside his store too.

I also wanted to show “Torn”, another tank top but as the name suggests, this one is torn to reveal quite a lot. I loved this tank top however, as you can wear different colours undershirts to create different images and the undershirt will show through “Torn” which is worn as a shirt laayer.
a
This time, I wore a black tank top from “plus”, which is one of my fav stores so that will will look black and white. Again the tank top is tintable so I can change the colour to whatever colour that I like.

M * A * ii * K * I Striped Strapless Black & Gold Set

It’s funny but even in SL, there are days when I feel like I want to just dress casual or on other days, I want to dress up. Now that doesn’t necessarily mean wearing ballroom gowns and today was such a day. I wanted to dress up!

So dress up I did.

When I want to dress up, I tend to choose very simple outfits because you can add more to it. On the other hand, on days I am feeling lazy, I wear outfits that almost complete the whole look so I don’t have to think about adding anything.

Today, I was feeling a little energetic so I chose Maiiki’s Striped Strapless outfit, which could be worn as shorts or as a tight mini dress both with leggings. This comes with various coloured leggings but mine had gold leggings. So with this, the theme colour became black and gold. Then I added a touch of purple and pink with my makeup and also added jewelry that could add some impact and also added an interesting hat. This hat is called the “Bird Nest Hat” from Chapeau Tres Mignon. As you can see, well………….it’s a bird’s nest all complete with eggs and a birds! This added an interesting touch to an otherwise very simple outfit.

OK, so now I am all dressed up. But…………..where should I go?

Outfit: M*A*ii*K*I, Striped Strapless Black/Gold
Hat: Chapeau Tres Mignon, Bird Nest Hat
Necklace: LeeZu Baxter Designs, La Perla black (free gift)

Kouse’s Sanctum New Release: Sandrah

I have ALL the colours of Kouse’s Sanctum to show you again. I just love the feminine touch of Kouse’s gowns! With “Sandrah”, designer and creator, Kouse Singh has both solid colours and also white based gowns with a touch of different colours used which makes the gowns look very delicate and dainty.

For the top, you get a choice of long sleeves and short sleeves and after wearing all the colours, I realized that the solid colours tend to look better with long sleeves as those are more elegant, whereas the white based gowns looks sweeter with short sleeves. But that’s all an individual’s choice. You get both sleeves so try them out yourself!

So here are all the colours. Enjoy!!

Sandrah – Blood

Sandrah – Blue

Sandrah – Forest

Sandrah – Golden

Sandrah – Grape

Sandrah – Lavendar

Sandrah – Pink

Sandrah – Sappire

Sandrah – Silver


It was so cute and sweet that I decided to take a pic as a fae using the pink Sandrah.

Giusia Creations: Sammy in Black

Today’s outfit is Sammy in black by Giusia Creations. I love the outfits of this store as they are simple and can be worn casual as well as dressed up as I did here. Yesterday, I received a review pack from the House of Heart and I found several hair that I liked. This one, Wild Isabella, was one of them so I went to get some colours that I liked it in. The feathers on this hair is colour changeable so this will be a fun hair to match to various outfits.

The skin is a couture skin from Nomine called “couture cat eye”. It’s a beautiful skin I fell in love with the moment I wore the demo skin.

So this will be a fun party look without getting over dressed.

Shoes: ALB, AUDREY pumps + ankle black by AnaLee Balut (black)

Giusia Creations: Lili in Black

As anybody has noticed, there are many outfits that have short prim mini skirts. I tend to avoid these designs as, in general, they all look too similar. But this Lili outfit by Giusia Creations had a different overall image in spite of having a short prim skirt. It must be the tweek in design around the neck area and also the texture/design of the prim skirt, but whole outfit looks a lot more stylish.

But even so, I thought wearing it with no stockings or with boots will make it look too boring, so I matched it up with a pair of above knee socks from Shop Seu, as well as a big shoulder bag that came in Baiastice’s “Maimi” swimming suit set and centered it around a black & white colour theme.

And this is what I got.


Outfit: Giusia Creations, Lili (Black)
Socks: Shop Seu, Kushukushu Kutsushita
Bag: Baiastice, Miami (used bag only from a swimming suit, bag & hat set)
Sunglass: ottico, numero59 bianco
Shoes: Maitreya & M*A*ii*K*I, Slinky Stiletto (white)
Hair: Miss B, Pamela Hair (black)

Milonga, A Sexy Dress To Dance a Tango

Mami Jewell, designer for “Styles of edo” who creates all female outfits have introduced a very sexy dress called Milonga.

The dress reveals the left let all the way from the top! This would be a dress which will require quite a bit of courage to wear in RL but hey, why not in SL? I haven’t been able to yet, but I would love to go dancing in this. When I looked up the meaning of Milonga (hmmm I have to admit, I didn’t know this word), it said an Argentine Tango. No wonder!

And as all of Mami’s outfits, the dress has a great texture which I had to show in the last pic attached.





Outfit: Styles of edo, Milonga, Tanzanite
Shoes: Stiletto Moody, Pinup (Midnight)
Hair: Cake, Faith (black)

New Releases From Kouse’s Sanctrum

Aside from modeling and blogging, another aspect of Second Life that I enjoy immensely is the free time I spend in a medieval fantasy RP sims of Avilion. So naturally I need gowns that I can wear here but they need to be gowns that are not so modern looking. Kouse’s Sanctum is a store that specializes in gowns that can be worn in Avilion, but that means that they are also gorgeous gowns you can wear anywhere as a formal outfit. If you visit her store, I am sure anybody will be overwelmed by the variety of gowns and colour variations that are available!!

For this new release, Kouse has come up with 10 stunning colours in a gown called Briar Rose. Each of the gowns have a solid coloured underskirt overlaid with a sheer textured skirt in the same colour, giving the gown a romantic image which, together with the ruffle on the sleeves, gives the gowns a very charming and sweet look. The prim skirt attaches slightly low on the waist, showing the feminine curves which was a design feature that I loved so much about this dress.

I must add that each gown has a circlet included in the set as shown in the picture below. This circlet is colour changing by clicking on the circlet which allows you to match the jewelry with your choice of gown colour or even wear it with any other outfit you like!

Just look at the array of colours available. It will be very hard to decide on just one colour but with all the 10 that are available, I am sure almost anybody will be able to find one that will fit her taste.

Briar Rose – Azure

Briar Rose – Blood

Briar Rose – Cotton Candy

Briar Rose – Emerald

Briar Rose – Grape

Briar Rose – Lavender

Briar Rose – Midnight

Briar Rose – Moonbeam

Briar Rose – Ocean

Briar Rose – Sky Blue

Gowns: Kouse’s Sanctum (includes colour changing circlet)
Hair: Laqroki, Champagne

Baiastice’s New Release

I went to see a fashion show yesterday where I saw many of the new releases from Baiastice that we could look forward to as we approach the fall season. And I have to say, there were so many that I wanted!

Right now, there are two, out of all the new designs, that can be purchased in Sissy’s store and this is one of them. It’s called “Tea at 5 O’Clock”. What a sweet name!

It comes with a long (below knee length) skirt and a short skirt, as well as two different hats. There are also two types of prim collars which you will have to switch as one of them is a double collar and will interfere with the broad brimmed hat.

The outfit has so much details in the texture. It’s white decorated with tiny pink flowers. Perfect for a gorgeous picnic on a sweet and sunny afternoon or a high tea party complete with cucumber sandwiches, scones with strawberry jam and devonshire cream.

The sweet basket I have in the pictures is also a part of the set, adding so much charm.




The harpsicords in the background are all antique French style harpsicords, made with such exquisite details. You can play them yourself or have them auto-play a total of 6 tunes for you from different composers. I heard that all tunes were recorded from real antique harpsicords for these SL versions so what more can you ask! I must say, I am so in love with them!

And these are the two hats that you get with the set.


Outfit and hats: Baiastice, Tea at 5 O’Clock
Shoes: Nonna Hedges, 18th century brocade diamonte
Hair: Truth, Chelsea (black)
Skin: QS ( Quelita Soon) Skin, Milk, Light 002
