Hui is waiting downstairs. The engine of his car running. We’re going out for a couple of drinks and a supper on the town as we need some time to just catch up instead of always talking blog stuff (or something like that). I quickly check my make up in the mirror, and then I’m ready to go. Catch you later!

For the month of June, Rosline Petion of 5th & Oxford has made this peach version of her Lila slip dress as an exclusive item in their Copley Square satellite shop.

So, I think this week’s 50 L$ Friday is going to be a series of must haves again. Yesterday I showed you Casa del Shai’s contribution already, and today I am wearing 5th  & Oxford‘s Seaside Sweetie, which is a preview of their upcoming release in an exclusive 50 L$ Friday colour (will not be part of the release). Roslin has really nailed the butt shading on these high waist shorts, and to make a stripe pattern look this good on the SL avatar mesh, is a pain in the butt and also the other contributions I have seen so far from Artilleri and Arcade tell me that it’s worthwile braving the lag this week!

On a whole different subject, Luth Brodie from Reel Expressions has released new poses again. It’s been quiet for a while at Luth’s, but the last few weeks, she’s on a roll again. I couldn’t resist the new stool poses with prop. Hers remain some of the best poses in SL, though it really irks me that for some poses, my legs seem to be not long enough, while for others in the same set they are. I’ve picked only poses which are really good for me for this pic though :-).

Enjoy, ❤ Grazia

Other need to know: Hair by Clawtooth, skin by Fashionably Dead, tote by BOOM, glasses by GOS  and shoes by Maitreya.

Today’s look is a quicky, thrown together after a quick visit to Emery last night before I went to bed. I have a love/hate affair with Emery. Usually stuff is too much just slapped photos on a template, the kind of sourcing I don’ t care for -at all- but every time i visit their shop is see one or 2 things that I just want to have. Like this ripped shirt and the flower leggings.. I’m wearing it here with 5th & Oxford’s Rebel Rebel jeans skirt and J’s black boots. The Soho necklace is from alaMood, and the cord bracelet is from Illusions.

I’m wearing Isis, the upcoming release from Dutch Touch and truth’s Giada in champagne.

SLurls are here, if any are still missing, I will put them on the list later when I can log on again.

<3, Happy Monday

Look of the Day: May 8, 2010, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Today’s look is inspired by the beautiful music of the Gotan Project. Traditional tango, but with a modern beat to it. Very catchy, I can listen to it for hours.

I am wearing the black Romani dress from Azul, which is a perfect little number for any tanguera, and the floral attachment is from Donna Flora’s Diletta dress. The black lace border stockings are from Blowpop, and the long gloves, matching perfectly with the red from the flower are from 5th & Oxford. I’m also wearing Pixel Mode’s black Baby T shoes ( I should have fatpacked… over the weeks I have bought so many of them that the fat pack would have been cheaper anyway).

Isis is a skin which will be released sometime soon at Dutch Touch, doesn’t she have a sweet face, after the more edgy looks of Keira and Kiki? Michelle 2 in cranky brown from fri.day is today’s hair of choice and the corsage des fleurs rouges is from Tomoto.

Slurls are listed here, and please click the youtube vid to hear which milonga inspired me for this look

I’m in love with this Lismore dress that Whippet & Buck have put out for this week’s Stumblebum. It’s so breezy, and feminine, dress it down over your bikini to go to the beach, dress it up for a romantic evening with your SL crush of the day or just wear it and feel pretty.

I’m wearing the Lismore dress with a belt from Fleur, the former brand of 5th & Oxford. These patent belts are still available at their shop location in Rue d’Antibes (which as far as I know has not been rebranded to 5th & Oxford yet). The jewelry is from Zaara.

I’m wearing Sjors from Dutch Touch, and Scarlett from fri.day.

Pulling a fierce look for today’s post, it started with 5th & Oxford’s The Tease corset, which is really awesome in a strong, sexy look because of the vibrant, rich colours it was made in and I’m wearing Fri.day’s new low rise jeans (light) with it.

I was at Connors’earlier and picked up their black leather coat and I think it works very well with the other parts of this outfit. The thigh high boots are from J’s (by J.B. Gazov). The Androgynous earrings are from Fairy Tail. The fully sculpt and awesome butterfly sunglasses are from GOS.

I’m wearing the Kanji Krazy 1 tattoo from HUZ Tats and the black manicure from PXL Creations and MADesigns’ Seth in smooth brown III on my Maan skin (copper make up) from Dutch touch.

Not being a huge V-day fan, there is one thing that I really like about this time of year and that is the massive amount of delicious lingerie sets being released, both in SL and RL.  I have been spoiled with  lot of them lately, so I figured I might as well share some of my favourites with you.

First there is Cream, today’s release from Lovelace, the annual collab between Nephilaine Protagonist and Launa Fauna. I love how this year’s releases are all dessert/patisserie inspired. And isn’t this one just yummy? There is not enough strapless lingerie in SL!!

Other than the undies, I’m wearing precious little… but the hair it Truth’s Peta, the skin is L.Fauna’s Lapine, the bracelet is alaMood’s Keeper of Hearts and the pose and heart are from Glitterati.

The next set in this lingerie loaded post is from 5th & Oxford. The Tease is an upcoming release, and as usual, it comes with tons of options and in several rich colours. There will be knickers, garter belts, bras , corsets and under bust corsets on all useful layers as well as natural and matching stockings to every colour. I love how, with her known eye for detail, Roslin made the stockings look slightly pulled up by the garter. Also they will release their famous gloves in matching colours!

With this set I’m also wearing 5th & Oxford’s Audrey English Rose (medium) and Tiny Bird’s Love Love Love.

I own almost every set which  Camilla Yosuke from Insolence has ever released. It’s just love.  With her gorgeous lace textures and excellent drawn items, she is probably the most loved lingerie designer on the grid. This latest release, Cecile, comes in 6 lovely colours and also comes with a bra option. I have picked the pink corset/chemise option, since it shows a little more of the mad skills of Camilla.

I’m not a stockings fetishist, but I love it when they are well done in SL. Many you see are pretty bland and with mediocre textures, but like 5th & Oxford, Insolence’s stockings are SO well made, with the perfect capture of that sheer shine which any nylons these days have. With every set of Cecile, you get several different shades of stay ups as well.  With Cecile I’m wearing Lelutka’s Ife (make up 3 in sunkiss) and  Maitreya’s Bo hair in Pecan as well as alaMood’s Keeper of Hearts bracelet.

Last but not least in this run is Blacklace’s Mile High set… yes… there is also a stewardess set for this release… but I’m sticking to the undies today… maybe some day i’ll show you how hot the skimpy dress is with the hat and all.  The Mile High lingerie is very outspoken, the woman wearing this is a predator… feline, her poor prey will be caught before he even realises he was being hunted…Blacklace is strong at making this statement, their lingerie is very empowering. There are also lace gloves to go with this set, but personally I’m not a fan of lace gloves, so I left those out.

With the Mile High lingerie I’m wearing Dutch Touch’s Amber skin and the Aphro hair from Another Level.

OK… so I agree… this is not the usual outfit for some serious gardening… but pixels don’t make you dirty! I’ve been working on another corner of Leek Island today, dressed like this.

I’m wearing Redgrave’s transparent knit sweater which I stole from a friend of mine :-P. It’s from Redgrave’s male collection, but as usual, it looks better on me than on my buddy. The bra which keeps it half decent is from Pig, from the softies collection and shimmering under that you can still see some of HUZ tats’Timeless tattoo. The Rebel Rebel asphalt jeans skirt is from 5th & Oxford. With this outfit, I’m wearing Tesla’s black Angelina boots, but they got cropped out… totally awesome boots though.

I’m wearing a triple lip ring from Puncture and an unreleased stack of rings from alaMood (SLDD of coming Saturday!). Other than that I’m wearing Ife light (make up 2) from Lelutka and Nick hair in meteorite from St.Uw (Uncleweb).

SLurls can be found here, as usual.

I decided to post a couple of themed looks in one, because there is too much newness finding my inventory lately. I’m seriously backlogging on things. So  from left to right:

Zena. Zena is from a new to me brand, Hyper Culture. They have some nice stuff out, although there is room for improvement, like on this dress where the upper body part and the pants layer textures do not align as well as one should want to, but over all… isn’t this just a darling LBD?  Other credits:

Gloves @ 5th & Oxford
Verve pumps (not visible) @ Maitreya
Crystal earrings & cuff @ Dark Mouse
Little Miss veil @ 5th & Oxford
Roos feather (caramel) skin @ Dutch Touch
Rio hair (Marilyn) @ Lelutka

Dina is a giftie from Valena Glushenko to the Lelutka update group. It’s a very body concious crinkled strapless dress. I’d love to see this in more colours too! Other components to this outfit:

Black leather open shirt @ Aoharu
Prestige boots @ Bax Coen
Alkahi Dew jewelry @ alaMood
Ife skin(sunkiss, make up 3) @ Lelutka
Melissa hair @ Truth

Last but not least is Off the Hook from Sachi Vixen at Adam ‘m Eve. This is a really sexy dress… revealing, but not too much. I’m wearing it with the min skirt prim, because I wanted to stay with the theme of the other dresses, but it also comes with a very pretty longer skirt which is open in the front. It looks a bit burlesque like that. Other than that I’m wearing:

Black Sheared Mink Shrug @ Coco
ThighHIgh Boots @ J’s
Mapatano necklace @ Uzuri
Portia skin (Baroque, tone 2) @ Adam ‘n Eve
Nick Hair (Holy Golden) @ St.UW
