I spent a nice afternoon with my newly adopted daughter Britain (you can see her flickr page here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/britainknave/ as well as her version when she posts it!) We took a picture at the Fleeting Heart sim with a pose from Purple Poses. Blueberry had a major mainstore release today (These skirts and my top) so make sure you go and check it out!

Petite Bowtique for Love Donna Flora

My daughter Ryleigh, owner of Petite Bowtique is also participating in the Love Donna Flora event and she made some really sweet and adorable matching mother and daughter dresses. You can also purchase the dresses separately. They are very cute and great for photos with your little one or fashionable enough to wear alone.

I had a lot of fun taking the pictures for these and it also makes me very proud of my daughter for participating in such a wonderful event. The Love Donna Flora event will open on July 25th @ 12:01 AM and close at midnight on August 11th. It will feature work from more than 100 creators with proceeds going to Squinternet Larnia of Donna Flora. You kind find out much more info about the event here and even add a message to Squirnernet Larnia of your own: http://lovedonnaflora.wordpress.com/

Thank you so much to everyone that posed for this!

Laqroki’s New Essentials Skin Line

The last few days have been full of new releases. The one that I’m most excited about though is Laqroki’s newest skin line called Essentials.

Why, you ask? Because the looks that you can make with this skin are endless. With Tattoo layers you can take the nose from say the Elle skin and you can seamlessly blend it into the Saga skin as long as you are using the corresponding tones.. I am also wearing brand new hair from Truth in this post, a brand new Donna Flora Jewelry set and a brand new dress from Celoe.

The body shown above has also been completely re-worked. Gone is the shiny and now is the more natural athletic but still feminine new body that looks and photographs fantastically. The body for me is a huge improvement. It is totally different from Laqroki skins of the past. This is one of the prettiest bodies that I’ve seen on a skin in SL.

These are the tones for Saga:

These are the tones for Elle:

This is a mix of both Saga & Elle with Lips, and eye make ups.

I have never seen this before in SL. I am totally blown away. Each skin has six tones and a tone of customizations for each. In the photo above I am wearing the Sage base skin with the eyes and eyebrows from Elle. I am also wearing a lipstick layer and eye shadow and liner which you can purchase any makeup layers you wish separately or in a fat pack and it’s quite inexpensive. You can also use the different layers for other skins too… so if you’ve been looking for a totally unique look this is the first of it’s kind.. a total skin innovation!

The Dark side of Ginny from Glam Affair

Another set of very cute make ups from the newer “Ginny” line from Glam Affair has been released Friday.. to perfectly compliment your Halloween look or to make an interesting POP in a dramatic photo or some of these I’d even wear for every day purposes.

I am also wearing a newer jewelry set from Donna Flora, and hair from Exile and a Hair piece from Pididle which are both available at the Attic at the Deck for 95L each.

You

“Uninvited, the thought of you stayed too late in my head,
so I went to bed, dreaming you hard, hard, woke with your name,
like tears, soft, salt, on my lips, the sound of its bright syllables
like a charm, like a spell.”

“Falling in love
is glamorous hell; the crouched, parched heart
like a tiger ready to kill; a flame’s fierce licks under the skin.
Into my life, larger than life, beautiful, you strolled in.
I hid in my ordinary days, in the long grass of routine,
in my camouflage rooms. You sprawled in my gaze,
staring back from anyone’s face, from the shape of a cloud,
from the pining, earth-struck moon which gapes at me”

“and I open the bedroom door. The curtains stir. There you are
on the bed, like a gift, like a touchable dream.”

Carol Anne Duffy – “You”

It feels like spring

“Spring is like a perhaps hand
(which comes carefully
out of Nowhere)arranging
a window,into which people look(while
people stare
arranging and changing placing
carefully there a strange
thing and a known thing here)and

changing everything carefully

spring is like a perhaps
Hand in a window
(carefully to
and fro moving New and
Old things,while
people stare carefully
moving a perhaps
fraction of flower here placing
an inch of air there)and

without breaking anything.”

Bring it on!

Just a quickie to say.. I love the new Mesh Pigtailed “Bring it on” hair from Exile. The style is adorable. I love it. I’m also wearing the Princess Pearl set from Donna Flora, which is one of my favorite pearl sets now in SL. Guess I have good memories associated with it now and Donna Flora does make beautiful jewels.

The dress that I am wearing is an oldie but goodie from DP Yum Yum. So delish and femme. For spring, I want 1000 dresses just like this. The skin is the Alice Skin from Al Vulo for only 300L at the Private Room Event that just started yesterday. Poses are from MiaMai for Fashionably late, and are perfectly executed. Shoes are from N-Core and the bed in the background is from Baffle!

Have a great day!

Donna Flora A-Z – Aliena

I wanted to add a bit to the ongoing A to Z Donna Flora blogger challenge started by the lovely and elegant Cajsa Lilliehook one of the bloggers at It’s Only Fashion. I love this project and while I do not personally know Squinternet Larnia the creator of Donna Flora I wanted to send my love and wishes of wellness her way. One thing I love about our blogging community is the love and support that can come from us.

I chose to photograph myself this way because to me nothing in SL is more sexy and beautiful than the jewelry that Donna Flora makes.

As of recent I’ve fallen in love with the quality of it. I think it is absolutely gorgeous and makes me feel glamorous. Best of all? It’s transfer from what I’ve seen so it’s easy for gift giving. Also, yes I like to be a little bit naked, feminine and this jewelry makes me feel beautifully feminine, as a excellent piece of jewelry should.

I am also wearing the gorgeous new skin from Exodi called Sophie in the tone of Soliel. Hair from Truth called Maggie and not much else.

Vintage Lounging

Good.. morning.. err I mean afternoon.. I can’t seem to get my bum up off of this new release from Lost Angel Industries new to the Vintage Fair today. The Vintage Lounge Solo comes with ten different sultry poses for you to drape, shiver and stretch all over. The textures on this are gorgeous and it really is a must have for photographers and beauty admirers alike.

While we are on the topic of the Vintage Fair.. I have found some more lovely things to show. The hair that I am wearing is new from Ploom, called Mimi. Very, very adorable style. I love the HUD that comes with the hair. It’s easy to change between the colors that are in the pack and you can add streaks! I love the little curl resting on the side of my face here. My Lingerie is from D.Select. I get excited when I see new D.Select stuff so I had to pick this up too. My shoes are the Glitter shoes from N-Core.

The Necklace and earring set comes from Donna Flora and is called “Silvia” It is a beautiful and bold set making me remember the saying “diamonds are a girls best friend…” The HUD also comes with many jewel options. Gawgeous, darling.

The house and walls in my background is the Odette house made by Funky Junk.. seriously one of the best houses that I have bought and there is a new house called the Pasadena house at the fair from Funky Junk worthy of checking out!

Remember, The Vintage Fair opens today at Four SLT.

Donna Flora – Puff Dress

This is one of my new favorite dresses in SL from the new Mesh Dresses. This particular dress comes from Donna Flora and comes in several stunning options.

This particular pattern stood out to me as I love colors like this. I am also wearing hair from Lelutka. Jewelry from Mandala and shoes from Pixel Mode. If I were you I’d go snag this dress today. If you don’t have Mesh Firestorm Mesh Beta for Phoenix is working like a dream.
