Oh sweet sweet mesh.

J.H. Couture has some of my very fave mesh items on the grid. I first told you guys about them a few weeks ago when I blogged a denim mesh skirt. Remember? Maybe not, but let me tell you...since then the store has just exploded in mesh love. So so much cuteness! I also said it last time and I will again, please do not be turned off by the store. It looks a bit dated, but it is no indication at all of the the clothing. Jada Humby is extremely talented! Do yourself a favor and tp over there.

How awesome are these Heathrow boots from mon tissu? VERY!

I know it is fall for sure when we go apple picking and that is exactly what we did today. Love going through and picking the best apples, fingers crossed we did a good job!

The Sea Hole released a new lace insert top with arm warmers that are incredibly cute. I paired it with one of my fave skirts from Airflow, knee socks from The Seal Hole and my latest skin obsession, Chloe. The cute little owl purse is from Gritty Kitty, the earrings are from Tram and well, I love it all!

Oh, life it seems a struggle between
what we see and what we do
Well I'm not going to change my ways
just to please you or appease you
Inside a crowd, five billion proud
willing to punch it out
Right, wrong, weak, strong
ashes to ashes all fall down
Look around about this round about
this merry-go-round and around
Well If at all God's gaze upon us falls
it's with a mischievous grin, look at him

Forget about the reasons and
the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that
our emotions can be swept away
Forget about being guilty
we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

Epic...epic day. <<33

I have been running around in this outfit since last night so I thought I would finally just blog it. I adore crazy socks in both lives so the ones from Mother Goose's are perfect! The cardigan is a new favorite that I am sure I will wear often. As in too much, maybe. Chloe from Belleza is another of my musts lately. Just gorgeous.

Okay all I am doing is rambling on and on. I will stop after I say one time...go shop for this stuffs...all must haves.

Belleza's Chloe is simply gorgeous. Tricky Boucher truly outdid himself with this release.

Gorgeous eyebrows! I am a big fan of strong looking, groomed brows. None of those wimpy thin line brows for me, no thank you. Tricky redid the stomach, it isn't quite as shaded as it was before..it seems softer, more feminine. There are two hairbases - light and dark, as well as two brow options and of course cleavage or without. Now on to the good part.

The makeups range from innocent to straight out smoldering. Colorful, smokey, attention demanding...just beautiful. Tricky has a gift for makeup and it shows in the 32 makeups in the fatpack. Yeah. 32. On top of all that you also get 6 tattoo layers of lipstick when you buy a line of skins or the fatpack. Seriously. Impressive. Let me show you a few of the makeups below.

I didn't think I could find a skin that would make me take off one of the latest Curio's but I think that Chloe will def be sharing equal time on my avatar.

Yep, I am a big fan of this skin. Impressive.

Belleza's new face Chloe hit the grid today and you could hear the ooooohhhhhs from all directions. I wasn't planning on blogging the skin tonight but I had to put it on and take a close up, I will blog it a bit better tomorrow. Along with everyone else, I am sure. You can't blame any of us though...look at this face.

Chloe is a labor of love for the talented designer behind the Belleza brainchild. Tricky worked his a** off on this one and omg does it show. The face is a real departure from his past releases, just so different. I can go on and on right now but I will save that for tomorrow. All I can truly say is that Chloe is one of the most gorgeous skins that I have ever seen hit the grid. Simply beautiful.

Another round of Fashionably Late is upon us! I am wearing the SMS Feather Vest in blue and I love it! So versatile you can do so much with it. The vivid blue is just awesome, you can have real fun with it.

Keira Seerose made me cry today. Okay no, she made me sob. Let me show you why.

This beautiful image she created of herself with those poignant words caused me so many different emotions. Enough so that I asked her if I could share it on my blog. Mental illness is a constant heartache and those that suffer from it, you have my respect.

The entire grid is aware of Modavia Fashion Week and aside from LeLutka shows, those are the only ones I will really go to. I am going to be honest, the thought of going to a fashion show in SL is excruciating for me, I would rather get a root canal unless it is one of the two events I mentioned before.

Gizza is one of my fave brands in SL and they cemented that with their fashion show releases. Let me show you two of my fave outfits.

The Chic Zebra outfit comes with the boots, the bird, the belt....whole shebang. I am so in love with the swing coat. It is just gorgeous.

The 2nd outfit I want to show you also comes with the boots...which I will wear with other things for sure.

I would wear both outfits irl for sure. Well I might skip the bird irl and I am positive my husband would demand I wear a shirt under the jacket. Yeah for SL! LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.

A mesh denim miniskirt? I think I am in love.

Today the lovely Julia Merosi of je suis scolded me for never having been to Jada Humby Fashion before. She quickly sent me a LM and shooed me off. Mesh. Denim. Skirts. Love. I am going to be totally honest here, great stuff but the vendor pics are not the best. Ignore them. Don't let them decide for you, just shop. Her eye for detail in the clothing is fantastic. I bought a pair of her jeans and as picky as I am about jeans, which is very very, trust me that these are nice. Her mesh denim skirts is what made me hardcore fan though. LOVE.

It is only 7:24 am and I have been up for hourssss. Tragic, isn't it? I think I need some coffee. Or a nap.

Fishy Strawberry released the first part of their fall collection and I am in deep infatuation with this tunic. You can wear it a few different ways..with or without a belt, with pants, short like I wore it here, or you can wear the longer tunic that has an elastic band. Veryyy cute, regardless of how you decide to pair it up.

Yes, I am still having obsessive love with this Amber skin from Curio. Gala has released so many gorgeous skins lately, each face is just beautiful but Amber has stolen my heart without a doubt. Adore.

I have good news and bad news. Ready? Good news is that Curio has two new skin releases! They are as gorgeous as always! Bad news is that they are not out quite yet. BUT I will show you one of the faces. Does that make it better? Probably not.

The one I am wearing here is Jasmine 2 and it is just a beautiful face. Soft, beautiful and flawless. I love the golden skin tones on this. Beautiful work. I know I go on about Gala all the time but she is just an excellent designer. Her faces are so lovely and her use of makeup is perfect. Not to mention the cost of a fatpack is insanely reasonable.

I am wearing a new dress from The Sea Hole but um, in two parts. In the second picture I am wearing just the top from the Avina dress with The Sea Hole Cigarette pants. Love it together!

The skirt part of the dress is equally as cute though! I love how consistent The Sea Hole is with releases, every week like clock work - something new. I loveeee designers who release often, it makes me verrry happy!

Perfect day to blog the new awesome jacket from Miel which you can buy it in the Bright or Natural pack. This thing is so well made, has so many freaking options...it is just amazing. I played with it last night for like an hour. You can literally change everything on it. Totally customize it and I love that I can put a soccer ball on it, esp since I lettered in it in HS! Love! Oh and I am wearing my most favorite tshirt in SL EVER. It is like four years old or something like that but I still wear it constantly. East coast love always <333!

Come live in my heart, and pay no rent. Samuel Lover

I am having a mild obsession with the latest skins from Gala, Amber. Gala released Amber which has darker, richer makeups with strong brows that is just gorgeous. She released her normal skin tones and in addition a pack of gold tones. I am so in love with the gold tones, the eyebrows..the makeups. All of it. Lovely lovely work.

Leezu's latest skirt release, Nadja is pure win. It is one of those pieces that I will be wearing to death. Perfect for summer and perfect with tights for winter.

Pure perfect from Mimikri again. Missy is a gorgeous patterned knit mini skirt with sweater, and scarf that are available in 7 different colors. I love how the outfit has two different patterns...striped for the top and a different pattern for the mini skirt and scarf. As per usual, it is very well made. And adorable. Did I mention it is adorable?

You can't see everything I am wearing but since I styled the entire thing, I am adding the credits! Just imagine you know what it looks like all together. <3

The grid seems to be exploding with amazing new releases from talented designers. Love it!

I jumped right on the mesh train even though I was a bit resistant at first (okay it was because only the size large fit me in everything I tried on. Come on now!) and I am soo glad I did. We all know Jane outdid herself with her mesh releases so there is nothing I can add about how awesome this skirt is. I won't lie and say I am 100% in love with all aspects of mesh but so far, not bad. Oh and Jane changed her sizes for mesh, now she has - Petite, Fair, Luscious and Plump. I am wearing the skirt in Fair and it fits perfectly.

New lovely Leezu...love love love. I always love Leezu so totally no surprise.

Truth just released two gorgeous styles...I am wearing Tasmine and I have a new favorite hair! Till next week.

Epic days deserve colorful and pretty made dresses!

I am loving DCNY and everything they are releasing lately. That Anessa Stine is a busy bee because it seems like she has new lovelies pretty often. Her latest, Dotty Dress, is just adorable. You have 8 different colors to pick from (why choose? fatpack) and seriously I dare ya to pick just one. The puffy sleeves! Polka dots! Belt! NEED. Oh and she has a few other things out too. Make sure to tp to her main store and take a peek!

Leezu Baxter released the gorgeous Toya and I am 100% sure that my pictures won't do it justice. The top is transparent...as if you didn't notice. Please note that I believe this is the first time I have ever showed nipple on my blog. Yeah, I know it is just a pixel but it's MY pixel. Oh and back to the dress. The skirt is flexi, flowy and lovely. Swishy all over the place.

I have barely taken off the latest Glam Affair because it is soo lovely. I am wearing it here in light tone which is a dramatic change from my normal tan tone but I loved the way the red lips just popped. I may convert. Maybe.

Mimikri is one of my very fave designers and I have missed blogging a few of her recent releases. Boo on me. Let me try to remedy that right now. Luca is a perfectly awesome dress that is a serious must have. I am also loving her Kay scarves. Very cute! Perfect with a million different things.

Speaking of faves...Nardcotix is absolutely on the top of my list. Nardya is a perfectionist and it shows in everything she does. Her latest Shana shoes are gorgeous! So so many options with the fatpack. Another must have.

I was lucky enough to spend the weekend in Seattle with two of my very favorite men in the world...my husband and one of my younger brothers who was in town to play a show with his band. It was truly an amazing weekend, even if they made me walk more than any woman ever should in cute shoes. Yes, one must be adorable at all times...vanity over comfort.

Okay back to what this blog is about. I adore these pants from TuttiFruitti. They are just so fun and happy. The top is a new fave too, I loveeeee all the colors available. I am such a sucker for fringes with beads. I can't imagine the hot mess I would have been if I had been around in the 60's. I am positive I would have smelled like incense (um hm), had a head full of braids/beads/feathers and had tons of fringes going on in my clothes. Oh well, I will make that happen for me in SL.

Still so so in love with Glam Affair's Jadis V2. Did you demo/buy it yet? Gorgeous.

I seem to have a bursting at the seams folder of things to blog so you may be seeing a lot of me in the next few days. I guess this was your warning. <3

So many gorgeous things have been released since I last blogged but I picked a few of my faves. Ofc they have been all over the feeds but that's okay, right? The latest Glam Affair, Jadis V2 is gorgeous. Jadis was one of my very favorite skins EVER so having the V2 come out was just awesome. The skin is beautiful, there is not much I can say that has not been said about it. It is smooth, Aida does some of the very best makeup in SL...gorgeous, lush, vibrant and also the sweetest soft makeups. Love.

I adore this hair. It is absolutely my favorite Truth release and trust me...I love 99% of them. That 1% I left off is so you guys wouldn't think I was totally biased.

Speaking of biased...you know the lovely Grazia Horwitz is making poses again right? Um hm...make sure to check out her store Geez for poses that just flowwww and are perfect for blogging. Makes sense since Graz is one the best bloggers everrrr so she knows what just works.

2011-07-24T12:37:00.000-07:00

I was going to blog about this...the latest Curio skin - Candy and also mention how much I adore the new shirt from Nyte N Day, not to mention the new gorgeous hair from Truth. Well, I guess I just said that right? I have more to say though...

I came across this lovely thing on SCD Secrets and I thought I would mention something about it since the first line of it is part of my review policy. I am about to be brutally honest so you can continue reading if you wish. That right there was your warning.

I blog what I like. Let me repeat myself... I blog what I like. I do get sent review copies, yep. I do blog them, yep. Do I blog all of them? No. Not even close. I would say that I blog about 65% of what I am sent. Is it because I am so busy being fabulous that I can't blog all of it? No, it is because....I blog what I like. See that shirt up there? I bought it! See those jeans? OMG, I bought them too! Jewelry? Yep, bought myself. The rest? Review copies. Is it your business? Nah, not really.

I made the mistake of blogging something I hated..one time. I blogged it because she was a friend and I acted like I loved it. It was about 2 plus years ago and trust me, that blog post did not stay up for long. I hated the fact that I acted like I didn't see seams, or that the nose was blotchy, or that the makeup looked like what I would smear on my face in 7th grade before I was allowed to wear makeup. So since then, I don't care if the person is my bff, someone I would e-bone if I was single, if they were about to cure stupid, or begged me to blog it. It isn't going to happen. A lot of my dearest friends in SL are designers, yes. A lot of my dearest friends in SL are bloggers, yes. I also know that they have integrity. A review copy isn't the fucking Holy Grail. They happen. A lot. They are appreciated and I never get jaded over them. Ever. The fact that someone wants to give you something they put a lot of time and work into...epic. Does it mean I will blog each item? Nope. Why? Come on now...we know this answer... Because I blog what I like.

As far as... "I love it, it is gorgeous"? Yeah, I say that. So? I do love things, I do find many, many things gorgeous. I'm Spanish...passionate and expressive. I loveeee things. I just ate a peach and I was telling my sister, omg, best peach in the worlddddddd. It was. I love hard. I love pretty things. I'm shallow like that.

Far too shallow to blog something I don't like simply because it was a review copy. Trust me, I have zero issues buying things to blog. One of my very favorite designers that I blog often has never sent me one review copy and yet each time she releases something I run to buy it so I can blog it. I don't give a flying fuck if it was given to me or I paid for it. Quality is worth it. I am so far from a perfect person, but right here on this blog? My integrity is not for sale.

Alright, I am done here I think. I don't usually explain or defend myself because it is a needless thing especially to someone who is too cowardly to sign their name to something. I just have too much respect for every single designer I have ever blogged to make it appear like less than genuine. If you see a designer in my blog, whether I hate or love them as a person, I respect them as a designer.

Now please excuse me, three of the most GORGEOUS dogs in the world are snorting for my attention.

Summer is making me a lazy blogger.

Luckily Gala Phoenix is anything but lazy. She has been releasing gorgeous skins one right after another and each time I say...omg this one is my favorite! Till the next one because then THAT one is my favorite. Her latest due to be released soon is Stormy and it is gorgeous. Let me show you!

Lovely, right? I know I have said it a dozen times but Gala just never ever disappoints. LOVE! Be sure to pick up Stormy when she is released this weekend.

Oh and the rest of what I am wearing? The Sea Hole Garden District dress in the lovely named Felicity (ILY FB). I may have mentioned my epic sized love for Drink the brilliant designer behind The Sea Hole...maybe once? Okay more than once. Drink is utterly in her own league, a true artist in more ways than I can count. Love her!

Shoes from Nardcotix. Let me be honest, I had another pair of shoes on but after trying for an hour to match the skin I just freaked out and deleted them. I went quickly to these shoes and in under 3 minutes...skin matching magic. <3

Adam n Eve has been around for as long as I can remember. They release skins, clothes, shoes, etc at a rate that is nothing short of impressive. Sachi Vixen, one half of the duo that makes up Adam n Eve is an epic sweetheart with a whole lot of talent. Her latest dress, Dragonskin Gold is beyond lovely. Very well made, all layers included, the fabric makes you want to reach out and touch it. The waist and shoulder piece are incredibly detailed. Just lovely. Like soo many of us, I am addicted to Game of Thrones and I feel like a total Dragon Queen in this. Rawr! Just keep the fires away from me please, my skin is too delicate for that.

Wait the newness doesn't stop there! I am lovinggg the latest Annis Lace Tops from The Sea Hole. Two come in a pack - sheer and super sheer. Very very pretty and so well made. Drinkinstein Sorbet is a true artist. Everything she makes is epic, epic..epic. I think I have a girl crush on her. I can't help it! Have you been to her store? Do go visit it. You will wake away with a lot less lindens and who knows...maybe you will get a girl crush on her too.

Such a beautiful day today!

The lovely Anessa Stine released some DCNY faves in fun summer colors. I adore this crochet dress and since orange is one of my fave colors...seemed perfect for today. Be sure to stop by DCNY and check out the gorgeous new summery colors.

So I am sure by now you all know that Curio released three new faces, right? Did you also know that that they are gorgeous? Yes, I am sure you do. Well then, I guess there is nothing I can add. Okay wait, let me tell you that Gala Phoenix is truly an artist. I remember buying my first skin from her in 2006 and then tping all my friends in to buy them too. We would all ooohhh and ahhh over how gorgeous they were and try to decide which face to buy. If only I knew then how fatpack was the only way to go.

I hope you all have sunshine and are enjoying your day as much as I am.

I am going to keep this short and sweet because I can barely keep my eyes open. So much newness I can barely stand it! New Truth hair release...tons of it and every single one gorgeous. New Leezu skirt and top and well, you all know how I feel about Leezu. Adore. This release is no exception. I love how creative, pretty and feminine it is. Very cute.

New Laq that is all over the feeds with good reason. It is simply gorgeous.

That's it for me! See you guys soon!

There is not a thing I can say about Pink Fuel's latest Elly release that has not been said. Okay, let me use one word to describe it amazinggorgeousholysh*twasitworththewaitIsimplyadoreitandmaynevertakeitoffWOW.

I wrote out all the options here for the skin but honestly, we all know. Tons of lipsticks, two skins for an amazingly low price...flawless body, gorgeous face...just epic. Please do yourself a favor and go demo this beauty.

Oh and while you are out there shopping, swing by Coco Design and check out the new gorgeous things just released. I am lovvvving this shirt.

One more thing ...I have a bit of advice for those of you who know Alicia Chenaux. She likes to come over and leave *gifts* when she visits. Yesterday she was over for a bit and when I tped downstairs I had a laugh at all the things she left out. Just now when I went to blog this, I decided to take the pics in the house. I walked into the bedroom and literally jumped irl. Why? Because she left a special friend in the bed that I had not noticed yesterday. I decided to make the most of it though. Let me show you.

Aside from hogging the bed, he was very quiet during the movie and didn't want any popcorn.

One of the many things I love about SL is that it impossible to become jaded. At least it is for me. I will never get used to how amazing people can be in this place...thank you to those of you who go out of your way to be truly wonderful for no other reason than you want to.

Maitreya released what have quickly become my new fave shoes. Maitreya Gold Flip Flops are epic. EPIC. * Side note: my sister told me that the word epic went out like 10 years ago. I call BS on that.* Back to the shoes, there are several colors to choose from and once you decide on the ones you want (if you don't fat pack that is) the options don't stop there! You can change the base to either plain or print, as well as decide what type of metal you want for your toe ring....anddd there are three different ankle bracelets that you can wear too. You can wear them one at a time or throw them all on there like I did. If you have the fatpack you can mix and match all the tops and bottoms like I did with the handful of colors that I am showing you guys below.

These flip flops are so so so well made. The feet are typical Maitreya - perfect and in my honest opinion - the best looking prim feet out there.

Te extraño todo el tiempo, Feliz día del Padre

2011-06-19T13:02:00.000-07:00

Father's Day is always bittersweet for me. My beloved father died when I was young and there isn't a day he isn't in my prayers and thoughts. I learned a long time ago to take this day and celebrate the man he was. For those of you celebrating as a father, with a father or celebrating memories...Happy Father's Day.

I have a few things to share with you guys today...let met start with Gos Cinch Belt. Total MUST. Like everything Gos does...it is so so well made, tons of options and the thought of not fatpacking it should not even enter your head! Especially since I believe the fatpack is still on sale.

Diesel Works is some of my very favorite poses. Rogan has a knack for making each pose just flow...nothing weird or jutting out. I never feel unnatural in his poses, they are just perfect. Oh and did I mention he is having a sale right now on selected items? YES. Read more on his blog - Diesel Works.

New Truth hair? Gorgeous as always. Latest Dutch Touch skins? Still having a serious love affair with them.

Okay I think that is it for me. I have had a cold coming on alll week long and I think it finally arrived. I need bed. :(

WAIT there is more....you can totally customize them - frame color, positioning of the sunglasses as in - YOU CAN PUT THEM ON YOUR HEAD! I know! So effin rad. Wait...there is more! You can adjust the depth of tint to make it as light or dark as you want. I know. Epic. You can only purchase them right now at the Accessory Fair and once it is over you can buy them at his main store. They are seriously awesome.

The dress is the latest from Addict cutie pie, Kianna Noel. If the gorgeous Luna dress looks familiar it is because she released it in a few colors for an event last month but she finally stopped teasing us and released a whole rainbow of colors. The Luna dress is fun, well made and just a must have.

What can I say about the rest? Truth hair is always a win, the guy does no wrong. Shoes from PM are some of my faves and go with everything! Latest L.Fauna skin is simply lovely.

Happy Happy. Love it all!

New LeLutka - the skirt I am wearing is part of the new line that is very simple and so different from their usual releases. You can mix and match just about everything and I do love variety.
Gizza is seriously becoming one of my faves on the grid. I adore the shirt I am wearing in this blog and may keep it on for like... I don't know - forever?! Or until the next time I blog. If you have not been to Gizza, do go check it out. Something for everyone.

What can I say about the latest Truth release? It is gorgeous and as always just perfect.
Oh Dutch Touch, how I adore this latest release. Out of the four faces, I think I finally decided on Fiep being my fave. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

New Mimikri almost makes me forget that I have been fighting a cold all week long. I am loving the flirty Jackie Chiffon blouse - so pretty. It also comes with a pair of leggings/jeans but I was missing my ultimate fave jeans EVER - mon tissu Lou Lou jeans, so I threw them on.

What Next has the most awesome chaise for the Chic Bday event. The chaise comes with many poses with options for single or couple sits. It also has different texture options. Yeahhh! Love it.

Okay, go shop. I have to go lay down and watch The Kardasians while I pout about feeling sick.

I mentioned that I may be obsessed with the latest releases from Tableau Vivant right? I loveeeee their little prop rooms. This one comes with a balloon, several poses for holding it and ofc with options to change the walls and floor. Love.

I am also currently harboring an obsession for Gizza. They are working hard on weekly releases and you can tell how much effort they are putting into everything they do. Each outfit if creative, well made and realllly easy to wear. I am so lazy with clothes, if it doesn't look right after I mess with it a few times....it never gets worn again. I cannot stand messing with prims or trying to get something to look right. There is so much talent on the grid, I don't feel it worth my time to fuss with things for very long. Gizza is never an issue. A few tweaks here and there and you are ready to go. Plus I have a thing for vibrant and bold colors and they give plenty of that. Be sure to keep an eye on them, because I have a feeling they will continue to grow in leaps and bounds.

MORE Chic Birthday stuffs!

I adore Ducknipple...I love the colors, the designs and the level of quality you receive for such a reasonable price. The dress for C.B. became an instant fave the second I put it on. The Nardcotix shoes for the event are gorgeous! Nards does such an epic job on making them easy to tint, the hud is so so so easy to use and well the shoes are always gorgeous!
Lara Hurley released a new skin for the event too and it is very cute! The face is very lovely but I have to admit I am not totally sold on the body because I like a bit more definition and shading. Still a beautiful skin though and esp the lips are just to die for!
I have to tell you guys that when it comes to eyes I am even more picky that I am about everything else. There are two brands that I will wear just about all the time and a few others that I will wear on a very rare occasion. Today I found a third brand that I will wear ALL the time. Aphotic Gloom is a brand I had never heard of until today when I spied the eyes at the C.B. event. Wait. Let me shush and show you.

The designer, Rico Plisskin, had four special colors out for the event and after trying them on... I had to run to his regular store location. It took me all about two seconds to decide that what I needed was a fatpack. Another second to IM Rico (who is so damn adorable that he makes me want to bake him cookies and see if he is rl single for my younger sister - total sweetheart) and ask him to please let me pay for a blue pack of eyes and have him send them to my favorite SL person. The eyes come in two different sizes, as well as with a prim version and a no iris version too. The packs of eyes are so so so reasonable that all I can say to you is fatpack. Which is also utterly reasonable. I felt like I was stealing when I purchased them because each color pack has four different tones! Yes! I won't tell you how cheap they are because I want you to go find out for yourself and while you are there.. .BUY THEM! In speaking to Rico he mentioned that each eye has 50 layers. Yup, he worked his ass off and it shows. Go and support him...trust me - totally worth it.

Keira Seerose is a little force. She has so many things going on at any one time, I don't understand how she does it. Ninety percent of what she does is for charity, to help others...to find ways to give to those in need. Anyone who can find a fault in that needs to take a minute to reassess what counts in life. Keira is tireless in her efforts to try to make life even a smidgen better for so many people who feel like hope is lost. This week her baby, Chic Management turns one. Let me show you some of the beautiful things you can purchase at the birthday event that opens today at 4pm.

I have no idea what I am loving more in this blog picture. Whether it is the new League dress, the Miao necklace or the lassitude & ennui pumps all made especially for the 1 year birthday celebration. Or maybe it is the new Truth hair, Kalia. Gah! I can't decide. All I know is this - it is all beautifully made, available in so many different colors and everything I am wearing is simply gorgeous. I also know you need it. Yes. You do. You can purchase the hair right away on marketplace or inworld, but you have to wait till 4pm slt to go get the rest. Don't worry, I will remind you later today with another blog showing more beautiful things from the event. Aren't I thoughtful? <3

I am having obsessive love with the latest skin releases from Dutch Touch. I have barely changed skins since the moment I tried them on. They are all so lovely I can barely figure out which I like best because I change my mind each time I try another one on.

Leezu released these gorgeous pants that come with the boots. LOVE. Such an awesome idea...so many color combinations to buy from...just love. Total must have!

I'm in love. Yeah, not just with him...but with this skin from Dutch Touch. I have not changed it since the moment I tried it on! Oh and wait...I am also in love with the latest Mimikri outfit. Lemme show you more of it!

Breezy is sexy, well made and just gorgeous. I adore the entire thing. The outfit comes with daytime and nighttime panties which I love! I also tried the top on with a pair of jeans and it was adorable. Outfit is a total win.

One more thing... Happy Birthday to the effervescent and dynamic Emerald Wynn. Emerald is a class act, a woman so amazing she makes me strive to be even just a little bit like her. She is kind, so damn intelligent, beautiful, talented ( PUBLISHED AUTHOR - HELLO) and just really and honestly one of the most beautiful people I have ever met. I am blessed to call her a friend in every life. If you are lucky enough to know her...send her a birthday wish as she deserves nothing but well wishes and love.

I think that conservatively speaking I own about 4000 skins. Insanity and I am aware of it. I can't help it though! I guess I enjoy looking like I am in the witness protection plan. That being said..there is one skinner that is my ultimate favorite. Dutch Touch. Iki made me way happy with the release today of four new faces. Let me show you a few of them!

The body is typical Iki gorgeousness. The face...the faces are amazing. Iki has a talent for skins that seems to be never ending. The colors of makeup are so lush, her shading is exquisite and they are so exotic looking. She is selling this skins in a way that I personally think is very smart. Aside from the options of different tones - she is selling each skin with a choice of a 5 pack of makeup or a base where you can buy tattoo layers. Perfect for those who don't use viewers that let you pile on tattoo layers but want options of makeup. Smart, right? The skin above is from the Basic pack of Keet and the make ups below are 4 from the 5pack of Keet.

Iki didn't think the skins were enough. She decided to add tattoo layers of freckles/moles, cleavage options, teeth, nails, pubic hair and lashes. Remember..there are lipstick tattoo layers that you can pair with all the skins too. Wait... before you get too excited (okay before I get too excited) let me show you another face.

Luus stole my heart. Absolutely my favorite skin...hands down. All the same options I mentioned up there and just gorgeous. Love. Love. Times 20.

I had to show you more make-up options. Yeah. Dude I know. I love me some Iki.

L`Abel is about to release their new Summer line on May 28th. It is more beautiful than I can explain ... so since they say pictures are worth a thousand words -

The extremely talented designer behind the label, Neferia Abel worked hard on this gorgeous line. It is obvious in the pieces I showed her (there is so so much more that I didn't blog that is equally as beautiful) and also obvious in this picture I took of her this morning.

Shh...don't wake up but do remember to tp to L'Abel on the 28th and pick up these gorgeous things!

I am having the most bestest day today. Wait. Bestest isn't a word? It totally should be because today is the bestest.

I use the word Love a lot. I had a boss who used to tell me that no, it was not possible to love jellybeans, certain songs, books, shoes..etc. That I liked them a lot but didn't LOVE them. I call bs. I LOVE. A lot.

I LOVE the new shoes from that lovely perfectionist Nardya Rousselot of NX Nardcotix. Aside from the fact that they are gorgeous, so damn easy to tint and very well made... I love the name! Rosa Maria is my favorite aunt's name...and why is she my favorite? Because when I was a kid she would give all of us candy but save the caramels for me. Yeah. Dude. Candy is enough to make me sway my loyalties in your favor.

Speaking of love.. I love love Dutch Touch skins. I know I say this all the time but Iki is such a wonderful person and her skins are absolutely my top number one choice. She has something for everyone...if you have not been there lately..go check her out. LOVE. I mean Love.

The Nica skirt comes in five different color options, the Nica top comes in 10 different colors and the flats and matching belts also come in ten different colors. Love. Love. Love. You can mix and match to your sweet little heart's content!

I am addicted to furniture in both lives. In my first life, I lean towards a bit more of the neutral, simple tones with accents of rich color and am allergic to clutter because I need everything just perfect. Knickknacks terrify me. In SL, I pack as much stuff in each of the houses on the sim as possible.One of my favorite furniture stores is What Next. Winter Thorn is fantastic. Everything that comes out of that store is something that you don’t just want…but NEED! Her set for Culture Shock, Norwegian Wood Living Room, is gorgeous. The tones are a bit deeper, richer and the set is just perfect for living with that guy that wants a bit more manly living room without you giving up an amazing set of furniture. Does that make sense? Pretend it does. Go pick it up. Really. It’s perfection.

Have you ever tried on a skin and thought..."that's it, this is the one"? Okay, I do it a lot...but I did it again once I tried on the new Glam Affair Layla that was released at the Skin and Shape Exp. It is lovely, flawless, smooth and just...wow.

I simply adore it. There are 14 different makeups that range from smoldering to sweet and light. There is also a natural face that is exactly that...and it is equally gorgeous. The new lips on this skin have to be my favorite. They are perfectly perfect. Let me show you just a few of the different makeups.

I am totally gushing and I won't apologize for it...this is a gorgeous skin. A must have!

2011-04-29T12:18:00.000-07:00

It is only 12:13 pm and I already have a headache from laughing so much. I think that is a sign of a good day. <3.

I am wearing the Miamai Keyla dress that is for Culture Shock and it is adorable! I paired it with a tank top and denim jacket but it is so adorable on it's own too.

The jewelry is from LaGyo, also for Culture Shock and I love it. Big, bold and colorful...love!

Team Phillip!

I loveeee Survivor, and this season is all about Phillip for me. I love his brand of crazy!!

Okay now on to what I am wearing. Mimikri released again! Again it made me very very happy! How lovely is this outfit? I think I have a total girl crush on her...and I have zero shame about it. Her designs are just about my favorite on the grid. Adore!

Nardcotix is releasing some gorgeous new shoes for Culture Shock and yeah - love. I have a pair on in the pick above that you can sort of see but trust me that I will be blogging them again. And again. And again. I love when she drops stuff on me she will say " I hope you like them!". Um. Yes. I will adore them. You can bet on it. <3

Hart of PXL released some new eyes and I am in lust. Now, let me say that I have been a hard-core Fashism girl since they hit the grid and will still continue my loyalty to them but these? These are entering my eye rotation for sure! They are clear with the right amount of glassy and the colors? To die for. DO go pick up a pair of these!

See my locket there? It is from Miao and while I wear it a lot, I don't always mention it. For me, Miao is the place to go for lockets. Kess is a locket making machine! I bug her all the time for more lockets...and this is where I ask for your help...go buy one..and join the chant with me....MORE LOCKETS! MORE LOCKETS!

That's it for me. I am in SL talking to the lovely Emerald Wynn about kittycats because well...we are both obsessed. Meow.

I love Avant Garde, whether it be art, culture or fashion. Pushing of the boundaries. Not in a way that could ever be hurtful or detrimental to someone, even though I am at times guilty, but in a way that inspires you to step outside of the norm. Go someplace you would never. Feel something you didn't think capable of.

sYs has some truly unique and gorgeous designs for the upcoming Culture Shock. I was sent several images and asked to pick what I thought I would like to blog. It was a simple enough request but I couldn't do it. I asked them to surprise me because it was all simply too beautiful. They sent over a few different things and the pictures didn't lie. The pieces are flawless. Not one detail was overlooked. There is even a hud to change colors for several parts of the outfits. I loved the black on black with the white lights so I kept it as is. Dramatic and bold. Exactly my speed.

Project Let's Hug It Out

2011-04-25T19:09:00.000-07:00

I have this personality that gets me into trouble. I say what I am thinking..when I think it. I have zero filter and have a super hard time holding back most of my emotions. I can go from sweet as pie to livid and back to angelic in about 30 seconds. You can imagine that it hasn't always worked out well. I am sure I owe a lot of people apologies and maybe it is time...

Project Let’s Hug it Out!
Sorry I blogged you.
I mean, Tinypasted you..
I mean, Plurked you…
I mean…
All of the above?
Let’s hug it out

SL is like a small town, or a very large school. Everybody knows everybody, and unless you are completely saintly, you’ve probably Blogged, Plurked, or Tinypasted something that you shouldn’t have. We would add more social networks to that list, but our chests are not that large.. so (insert the site and/or social network of your choice there).

We’re starting a t-shirt campaign to promote happiness & forgiveness in SL.

Letting go, of whatever it is that you need to let go, is good for the soul. Try it?

<3 Sophia and Gogo

What: Project Let’s Hug it Out!
When: Every moment, every day
Why: To promote Happiness & Forgiveness in SL
Who: All of us
How: Pick up the 50L Project Let’s Hug it Out! t-shirt pack at BOOM. Send a message or IM to the person you may have had a spat with and talk. Work it out. Snap a pic of both of you wearing it and BLOG about it!

T-shirts provided by Aranel Ah of BOOM. You can pick up a t-shirt in all colors available for 50L but the purple one is FREE! BOOM Mainstore.

Are these mountains?

Two words - Culture. Shock. Okay no, that isn't enough. I have to tell you more. Like it is coming May 1st. Like it is going to have over 100 designers. Like Like...LOVE! I cannot wait!

I have a few more sneak peeks for those of you who are also eager to see what is coming from one of the MANY talented designers participating in Culture Shock.

Have I been under a rock? Why didn't I know about Paper Doll and how awesome they are? I am mad at each of my friends that didn't make me aware of this brand! MAD! Okay, maybe not but do you love that yellow top? YES, you must! It is adorable! You will have to wait to purchase it though....Culture Shock!!

In the pic above I am wearing the Hailey DRESS but I paired it with pants from Addict and a cute tshirt from Jane because well, just because. It is extremely adorable on it's own too! You will find out for yourself..when? CULTURE SHOCK!

Okay, I had too much sugar today. Sorry. I will try to calm down when I talk about the gorgeous new skin from Dutch Touch that I am wearing in both of the pics and remind you to go pick up this hair from LeLutka. It is pretty freaking incredible. LOVE.

That's it, for now. I may be back sooner than you wish to show you more stuffs!!

OH..one more thing! I briefly mentioned it but do NOT forget to check out the Style Academy feed! It is invite only and full of some amazing bloggers. I was so excited to be invited to join them...and am still kind of waiting for them to realize their mistake! Shhh...don't tell them. <333

Easter is nearly here and to so many of it, it is a cherished holiday. I rarely talk about my faith in public because well..it is a personal thing, but for me - my faith defines me. I am not a perfect person, God only knows I screw up on a regular basis, but my faith? Solid. I wish those of you who celebrate a very blessed and Happy Easter.

I love little cafes in rl, they just are so quaint and peaceful. Not to mention they usually smell heavenly. In SL a sweet friend of mine, Gwendolyn Bieler, has a very adorable little cafe named Bumble and it is exactly a place I would love irl. Swing by and visit it...very cute!

Oh...Culture Shock is coming soon! There is something insane like over 100 stores participating and omg it is going to be epic. I cannot wait! Keira Seerose the little ball of energy behind CHIC Management also designs for her label Magoa and the dress I am wearing is one of her new releases for the event. It is just a lovely, simple but very pretty dress. I added the belt but I changed and forgot who the designer is. Sorry. :(

The bangles are from je suis and I loveeee them! You need them...all of them. Tons of options...tons of colors. Love!

That's all for me tonight. I have to go drink Gatorade and think about chocolate Easter eggs for Sunday.

Today was bittersweet. I had a lot of really wonderful moments that included crying from laughing so hard, but also a lot of sadness over the official announcement about Second Style closing it's doors. I knew it was coming, I thought I was ready for it...but I could have never known how much it would hurt when it happened. I have loved writing and interview so many amazing residents for the Fashion Icon piece, it was truly my honor to be a part of such an amazing group of people.

A few more things to show you guys from CHIC Limited. The skin I have on is from Glam Affair and it actually comes with an outit, B.t.W., but I am only wearing the skin. I adore it. I typically go for more tan skins but this one...gorgeous. Please note that the eyebrows are from Curio, because there are no brows on this skin.

Let me show you the lovely dress from Miamai for this round of CHIC Limited....

Is that beautiful or what? Miamai always brings their A game and this dress is no exception. Gorgeous.

Ugh. I am having cellphone trauma. I was dying for a new phone, got one...and realized that the apps I wanted most would not work. *kicks windows 7* So nowwww I have a brand new different phone that I cannot figure out. Ugh. This makes me long for my old but reliable blackberry.

ANYWAY... some new amazing things to show you.

The lovely Mimikri made me very happy with a new release! Each time I see her new releases I smile irl because I loveeee everything she does. I just want more...more...MORE! Can't help it, she turns me into a greedy greedster.

SLink released some new wedges that I am in love with! So cute and super easy to tint which is a plus because I have zero patience for tinting. If you see me out and about and my feet don't match....feel free to judge. Chances are high that they prolly match on my screen or I became irritated and don't care.

I am wearing the 2nd Truth release and it is just simply lovely but that doesn't really surprise most of us, right?
