bundled up

i am in *love* with the newest round of collabor88 goodies…

11.09.2012

…not only is the color palette gorgeous (shades of deep orange, golden yellow && cool teal-blue), but just about everything i spied there was callin’ my name~

collabor88 is one of those events that i look most forward to every single month. the mixture of home furnishings (which *really* helps, considering i’ve a brand new home to finish decorating!), fabulous fashion, accessories and even poses is all kinds of awesome. but this round, i found *so* many things i honestly flipped out for that i couldn’t even fit everything into one look. the collections just keep getting better && better and this round was definitely no exception.

the dress i’m wearing here is *so* sexy. it’s from hucci and i absolutely love it. the turtleneck collar, the length of the skirt, the lovely suede texturing…. and the way it moves… it is just flaw free. the fit on this dress is fantastic and i adore this blue-gray color, but i also snagged it in black because it was just too *good* to pass up.

11.09.2012

glam affair also has a few new things at collabor88 this round, including both the boots(!) && the skin i’m wearing today. the seul ankle boots come in a range of really pretty jewel tone colors that almost look metallic, but my favorite was this pretty golden bronze color. it’s neutral enough to work with just about anything i could possibly want to wear ’em with, but still *unique* enough to really add a pop of color into an outfit. they are shiny and high-heeled and impeccably textured. love~

and the skin…. well, it *is* that time of year after all. being a little under the weather is not uncommon in the colder months of fall && winter, but at least you can still look adorable with your snuffly nose. this set of skins, in glam affair’s roza and ginny faces, can either look like you’ve got a bit of a cold…. or like your face is flushed from being out in some chilly wind. such a cute idea that translates really, really well if you take lots of pictures in-world like i do. having that extra flush on the cheeks and nose, when combined with a “cooler” windlight setting && maybe a scarf (like the one i’m wearing here, which is a *freebie* from mr. poet!) totally adds another level of realism to your snapshots!

cherry

i’m kind of… accidentally patriotic with my look for today. powder blue isn’t *typically* the shade one associates with the good ole red, white and blue.. but that ended up being my color scheme for the day~

11.03.2012

and it *all* started with this cherry print skirt.

i picked it up from teefy @ the new fameshed collection because… it’s cherries(!). this print is so cute and i love the way these skirts fit. high-waist skirts are always super sexy, especially when they’re nice and short like these are, but i chose to wear the skirt underneath a large ‘n’ comfy hoodie (from ispachi — this light blue color is wonderful!) for a more cute, casual look.

11.03.2012

these shoes from g field were *perfect* for this look… because while i grabbed the black pair, most of the shoe is totally customizable. the upper half, the toe, the sole && the laces are all texture change, so i was able to change my shoes to match my red && blue look. these shoes are fantastically made (as is everything from g field), and really nice for casual wear.. and the fact that i can match them to just about *anything* make these a great bargain.

the sim i photographed this look on is so cute! i spied it first on juicybomb and made a mental note to visit when i had a look appropriate enough for the sim. and i have to say, the build there is *really* creative. almost everything is animated — there’s a cute li’l fisherman sitting on a bridge over the water and a lady peeking out of the window in her home, for example — and it all looks like the hand-drawn style of art found in a children’s book. big poofy clouds, oversized butterflies.. there were even swans floating around in a pond. not only is this sim wonderful for photographs, but it’s also just so *adorable* for exploring. check it out if you’ve not, yet!

want some fries with that shake?

onyx wear released an entire metric ton of new mesh goodies… including a super cute tube top that comes in a rather large handful of designs && colors. but among all the choices, there was one in particular that i wanted to show off in a lotd…

04.28.2012

…that features *french fries* and red ‘n’ white stripes. and i am lovin’ it (bada bah bah bahhh… see what i did there?!?!).

all cheesy puns aside ;p these new tops are made of awesome… i have been living in this one for at least the last 48 hours. it may be a testament to the fact that i’d totes eat at least ten pounds of french fries in a single sitting if i had them available, but this design was by far my favorite out of the bunch. so cute!

04.28.2012

instead of goin’ with a pair of short shorts, i grabbed for a pair of longer cuffed shorts i grabbed at sn@tch… which is having a sale all weekend long (that ends on the 30th!).

i absolutely *love* sn@tch (ahaha), because for me.. it’s a one-stop shopping sorta store. i love that ivey deschanel embraces so many different styles of clothing — from goth to girly to cyberpunk && back again — all of which i enjoy depending on my mood. if i want a latex bodysuit, sn@tch has it. a frilly skirt, sn@tch has it. cute tank tops, jeans, flowy dresses… pretty much anything under the sun. like it’s catered to me personally, someone whose personal sense of style seems to change with the time of day.

so when bff vivi && i heard about this sale, she and i pretty much made a beeline for it. these shorts i’m wearing here, which has color-change cuffs && comes in black denim and the blue i’m wearing here, were just one of many.. many… manymany things i scooped up. i am drowning in sn@tch (lolol, insert 14-year-old sense of humor here), but i could honestly *not* be happier about my haul.

new onyx wear mesh, sn@tch sale goodies, and oh! the super cute ponytail hairstyle i’m wearing is *new* from lamb — one of four released the other day. i am really enjoying lamb’s latest mesh releases && these ponytail styles are no exception. this style is *perfectly* messy and sits just right on the shoulder.. wonderful for the upcoming warmer weather. and these dip-dyed, multicolored shades are just gorgeous… nothing begs for an over-the-shoulder ponytail quite like bare shoulders, but i am honestly *stuck* on thinking about french fries rather than anything else.

pose fair!

yayyy!! pose fair is *officially* open! \o/

the amount of work put into pose fair this year is absolutely astounding. the build is wonderful, but simple, and there are so many booths… and so many exclusives to take advantage of.

i’ll be showing off single poses i’ve grabbed from pose fair while the event is going on, but for the opening.. i thought it fitting to snag one of my favorite props 😉 ❤ to pose with me for a few pictures of just a small sampling of couple poses.

and believe me, this *is* just a handful of the poses out for pose fair. the choice really is awesome. so many brands — some of my own personal favorites && some new-to-me brands too — all in one place! it’s the sort of fair that you should take the time to wander around and demo everything, you never know what kind of awesome stuffs you’ll find!

but with that said, onto the pics! i’ll be including slurls to each specific booth at pose fair for the brands i’m featuring here, but at the bottom there will be a list of all the participating stores && slurls to their booths too, for easier browsing!

super bendy

i love pose props. they’re all-in-one awesome sauce, i usually don’t have to do anything other than sit my tiny butt on them. but i’m picky about what props i buy or use, though, even if i love them.. because i don’t need a prop with a thousand && one standing poses.. right? i have a ton of standing poses already! what i look for are unique poses, and a cute prop on top of it.. and when i find one i like…

03.12.2012

…it’s a beautiful thing.

the prop i’m using today is a collaboration between evolve && aura — two stores i adore. and when i rezzed this prop for the first time, it made me all tingly inside (’cause yeah, i do get that pumped about poses, okay!?). there was a lot of.. bendiness in the poses. lots of action, lots of sexy, lots of *fun* in these poses.. so i am wearing my best yes, i do yoga and really am that flexible tyvm kind of “sportswear” to show off a few of my favorite poses~

03.12.2012

there’s a lot more packed into it than i’m showing off here. the box itself is color change, you can sit multiple people on it, and there is a *ton* of other poses that i’m not showcasing… which are equal amounts cute, flirty and very bendy indeed.

plus, i’ve been pretty much living in shorts in world as of late. i’m sort of.. denying that the temperature could possibly still dip below 60 in march && am fully embracing the coming spring with wide, open arms. so it was a nice excuse not to have to wear… *shudder*… pants for a post && was rather fitting to be in teeny tiny shorts since i was tryin’ to be all athletic and junk. though, to be fair, some actual yoga pants probably would’ve worked too.. and woulda made my ass look good in the process. so. there’s always that going for pants.

in the desert

..you can’t remember your name, ’cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain. laa la lalalala lalaalaa laaaa laaa~

this song is *really* before my time, but i still love it. and my look for today, paired with the in-world location i found to snap my bloggy pics, made me immediately think of it. so *old school* jam with me! \m/

02.26.2012

…not that my look has much to do with being in a desert, but.. y’know. ;P at least my location does!

i broke out a couple older items i found in my inventory purge about a month ago. it’s a never-ending cycle, trying to keep my inventory sorted.. with how much of a *shopaholic* i am, it can very very easily get out of hand. i mean, i was all pumped && excited about getting my inventory number way down, and during the process of boxing/deleting.. i went and fatpack’d a new skin. *facepalm* but! i’m proud to say i’ve kept my number.. manageable.. since then. and i’ve been more determined than ever to get some use out of the older items i decided were worth keeping!

the boots i’m wearing, as well as the vest, are things i’ve had in my inventory for quite a while now. the boots are an older group gift from coco (they are still available too, for freeeee!) && the vest is from niniko.. and both of which i decided to keep because i like them so much. i mean, i bought this vest when you could only wear one of each clothing layers at a time… so having a fully sculpted vest, without any sort of jacket/shirt glitch layer, was a really nice find. i could wear it even if my undershirt, shirt && jacket layers were already taken! still, the textures && the prim work on this vest, even after all this time, make it a nice addition to my sl-closet… and i still love the way it fits!

02.26.2012

so with the older, i’m wearing some newer stuffs, too! the top i’m wearing here, which is actually a *super* sexy cut-out dress, is new from nestle my bosom. the skirt is mesh && is part of a *15L* hunt going on right now @ ricielli. both the chest tattoo, and the ink on my arms, are also newer releases from vestigium — which is quickly becoming my go-to place for black tattoo sleeves.

i know sometimes we bloggers get.. caught up in all the new releases out there. or at least, i know i certainly do! there’s always so much new && so much awesome on the grid at any given time that you can kiiiiinda forget what you already own. but i think it’s good sometimes to break out the things you still like, that aren’t exactly fresh off the shelves && work it nicely in with things that came out more recently. breathe new life and versatility into the things you already own! \o/

back to normal

so! back to normal posts, hm? no more lingerie (at least for a while, i’m suffering from underwear overload, for realsies), no more valentine’s day… back to more *regular ole vixxie*. and i for one am pumped!

02.15.2012

i even broke out the elf ears, for the first time in a loooooong ass time. a couple years ago, my avatar was *never* without pointy ears. i wore them constantly && i loved them.. but just like with a lot of fads (i guess it was a fad? i don’t even know. a “phase” in my slife, i suppose would be more accurate), my love for all things elfin faded after a while. i got out of the habit of wearing them all the time && slowly but surely, my avatar was more human than elvish. i still like the elf ears though, and for the right sorta look they just.. fit. i can’t bring myself to box ’em up, even if i don’t wear them often, and this pair i got *ages* ago from pera are probably my favorites out of all the pairs i own.

02.15.2012

my skin today is from pink fuel, which should really be no surprise. pf’s elly skin has been my go-to skin ever since it was released. i *love* mochi milena‘s skins — elly, then ember before it — and i cannot even begin to express how insanely excited i am for the face i’m wearing now, alyx, to be released. around christmas, there was a *tease* skin set out as a hunt prize.. and this one i’m wearing here is currently just *99L* (but i’m not sure for how long!! i *think* only ’til the 18th! so gooooo!) and i am in loooooove with it. the face is different than elly, but still as adorable as i’ve come to know from pink fuel, and i cannot wait for the skin to be fully released. i hope this li’l peek at the skin means the full release is coming soon, ’cause i am gonna *explode* without it.

/me starts foaming at the mouth

oh, and before i go all *crazed* talking about a new pf skin… lemme just say that this gray collared shirt i’m wearing here is a *freebie!* from sakide. it’s part of the very generous gift for the jack or jill hunt, which runs until the end of the month. there’s another version of the same shirt i’ve got on here, but in red, included in the prize.. as well as jeans, *mesh* ankle boots, and a hat to complete a very gangster girl sorta look. and i am really, really likin’ these shirts. it’s a nice mix of sorta masculine tailoring, but low-cut enough to still keep it feminine. and the fact that it is freeeeee just makes it that much more awesome! there’s lotsa good stores on the hunt list as well, so you’ve still got time go to a-huntin’ if you’ve not participated in it yet!

and while you’re out hunting, seriously, go grabby this skin from pink fuel. you will *not* be disappointed. it’s gooorgeous… and with it, you can be bouncing-off-the-walls excited for alyx’s full release with me!! \o/

panty party

what’s better than one sexy girl in lingerie?

02.05.2012

durrhh, it’s two sexy girls in lingerie! \o/

the latest two lingerie releases from rezipsa loc, which are both *so* affordable && adorable on top of it, inspired bff vivi && i to take advantage of the lingerie challenge that’s been *blowing up* the feeds with undies galore. two new sets of undies and two best friends with an excuse to wear ’em.. seemed like kismet!

btw, the light blue set vivi’s wearing is actually made specifically for this week’s 52 weeks of color challenge… so. technically, vivienne is helping me participate in *two* challenges at once, even if for only one post! ahahah~

02.05.2012

vivi && i pranced (yes, pranced) around our sitting room in our panties… and had a blast takin’ some photos. getting *all dolled up* for bloggy photos is fun times, lemme tell ya, but doing something as simple as undies && heels is just as fun! she and i did just recently take some snapshots in our underwears for a recent post… but… i mean… i *really* didn’t think anyone would be complaining too much. 😉

plus my bff is so gorgeous ❤❤❤ i thought some extra eye candy couldn’t hurt!

02.05.2012

…even if things might have gotten a li’l out of hand after the photo shoot was supposed to be over. eye candy for all, indeed.

overalls

nnngh, monday. not feelin’ the start of the week this time around… i’m tired, i’m *cranky*, && i’m seriously wishing the weekend lasted just one more day. why is it that the weekend seems to just fly right by, but the weekdays just crrrrrawwwwllllll on forever!?

not fair. ;|

so to help make myself feel a li’l better, i decided to dress myself head-to-toe in cute. cute hair, cute clothes, cute boots, cute accessories… and y’know… it actually worked. all this cotton candy pink brightened not only my outfit, but also my mood~

01.30.2012
click to see it larger @ flickr!

having myself some sugar really helps chase away the monday blues, too! :D

these overalls i’m wearing, from monso, were the basis for this look today — they are baggy, wonderfully detailed && *mesh*.. and i had to have them. i really am a sucker for anything mesh lately, it’s spoiled me so badly with how easily mesh pieces are to wear, so when i realized that the straps wouldn’t be disappearing into my shoulders or that the flap wouldn’t move oddly with my AO on like overalls have for me in the past when just made from prims… i was sold. i’m really happy with these, i love the way they fit~

01.30.2012
click to see it larger @ flickr!

so i paired them with some *delicious* pink work boots i picked up @ gos (during the truth district sale!) && some layered shirts from whippet & buck and t.whore.. just to go all matchy matchy. some cute (and affordable ;)) accessories in the form of *free* subscribo-gift earrings from miel, a *lucky chair* prize lollipop from pink fuel that i think i’ve had forever && some *free* lucky board valentine’s day nails + rings from candy nail.. all of which were in complimentary shades of pink! glasses, messy piggy-tail buns, and a new tattoo from vestigium completed the look && i felt so goddamned adorable once i had it all on that it was hard to stay meh about monday.

perhaps that is the secret! feelin’ bleh… dress so cute that it makes it hard not to smile.

or, spend some time acting silly with a friend…

so other than good ole bff vivi && one post where lars bleac‘s perdy face graced my blog, i’ve not had a lot of guests here! i’m hoping to change that, though, and will force ask some of my other friends to stand around and pose for hours with me. ’cause my friend allarik decided he wanted to brave the scrutiny of posing for my blog with me && it was so much fun!

01.12.2012

he’s such a gentleman, ahahah~

truth be told, there was a lot more goofing off with arik than there is with vivienne — she’s so used to posing with me by now that she pretty much knows the entire routine. but arik.. not so much. i had to wrangle him in a couple times (without strangling him, which was a task in and of itself), to save him from wandering off && exploring without me while i was trying to snap photos!

01.12.2012

luckily, he cooperated with me long enough to capture a few pics. ;p

since i’ve been obsessed with the half-rim eyeglasses i picked up from mr. poet not long ago, and have been wearing them almost constantly in world (and in *several* posts here on my blog, too!), i decided to take arik there for a bit of shopping. truth be told, for all the guy friends i have in world.. i don’t pay much attention to “trends in male fashion” or even where some good stores for guy stuffs are. :X does that make me a bad fashionista? …buu~uuut, i remembered that mr. poet was mostly a man-fashion shop && when i actually took the time to look around there with allarik, we discovered this delicious jacket / vest / puffy shirt combo that is so so lovely.

so he paired it with some basic black jeans from ronsem && some mesh boots that were out for the last flf from fir & mna.. and suddenly, arik looked very … fashionable. ruffly, but fashionable!

01.12.2012

but since allarik looked so nice, i had to step it up && look polished too. i mean, c’mon.. i can’t let the boy look prettier than i do! so i decided to match his *ruffliness* with an older tank from surf couture with a ruffly bit at the chest && a fuzzy coat from aoharu.

he && i were sorta goin’ with the whole gray/ black theme, so i tried to match him as best i could with the rest of my look — a furry clutch from tea time, black jeans from luck inc, some of my favorite boots ever from elikatira, and jewelry from amorous.

i think he still outshines me, which i guess is okay. i mean, he is a gorgeous li’l thing, isn’t he? thank you, arik, for posin’ with me! ❤❤ you make a wonderful man-prop. ;3
