This is one of the new releases over at Adam ‘n Eve, Not my daily look, but I do love plaid, and bows, and great textures and Amelia has it all! And yes, I know it’s raining cats & dogs at Empress & Hierophant, but I still love it as a decor for a bonnie lassie.

Need to knows: dress Amelia by Adam ‘n Eve, skin Candy by PXL Creations (out soon… and won’t come of my avi because it’s love!) and hair Iris by Truth,  in copper.

SLurls, as usual, are listed here.

Chrome Byte

Chrome Byte, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Chrome Byte is the name of this new specialty skin from sachi Vixen of Adam ‘n Eve. Honestly, I want that name for an alt!!

This skin is also available as Chrome Natural (without the chip “shining” through) and also in a gold version.

Fun for styling or RP, or just, because sometimes a silver accessory is just not enough.

Hamlet Au picked up on  sachi’s new release after reading Bettina Tizzy’s tweet about my blog.

Amanda , originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Sachi has a bunch of new skins and make ups ou at Adam ‘n Eve… New make ups for Mei Li, a new Drow skin and new make ups for one of my favorite Adam ‘n Eve skins: Amanda. Is that red lipstick not adorable? So sunny and lush!!

The bodywork is, as you may expect, fabulous at Adam ‘n Eve and you should really try a demo if you like good skins, these will change a lot according to the shape they work with. You might be surprised!!

SL 2.0 face tattoos by Sachi Vixen

Posted in Adam 'n Eve, MV-SL-Fashion, SL, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 23, 2010| Leave a Comment »

SL2.0 beta went live today, and though I was warned I’d probably hate it, I could not resist downloading the new viewer today. Well, yes, things work differently from the traditional viewer, but oh my… I have a killer performance so far. I had an ATI Radeon rendering bug which made my sky go all wonky (starry) if i didn’t uncheck the atmospheric shaders, or derendered the clouds… hey, what good is my killer new laptop when I can only use the low graphic settings to have a fairly normal view??

Well, people… I can tell you, that bug has been solved with SL2.0!!! I can enjoy the beauties of Windlight again…

and you know what? I can also enjoy the benefits of an extra face layer, for make ups or tattoos… or beauty marks, or freckles.. or… or… or…. The ones I’m showing are made by Sachi Vixen from Adam ‘n Eve. Can you imagine the possibilities??

Of course people have been discussing alread what this would mean for the skinners of SL, and the consumers… basic skins becoming expensive… having to pay a lot for additions? Well… I still want good skins and make ups… but I’d happily pay for a beauty mark, or a funky make up which I would not pay a whole skin for, or a scar, or.. well… the possibilities are nearly infinite I think!

So hello SL2.0… you’re weird… but weird isn’t necessarily bad!!!

Sexy Little Numbers

Posted in 5th & Oxford, Adam 'n Eve, AlaMood, Aoharu, Bax Coen, Coco, Dark Mouse, Dutch Touch, J's, LeLutka, MV-SL-Fashion, Truth, Uncleweb, Uzuri, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on January 30, 2010| Leave a Comment »

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

New @ Adam ‘n Eve: Sascha

Posted in Adam 'n Eve, skins, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on November 29, 2009| 2 Comments »

It’s been a while since Sachi showed me an early version of Sascha, but it got me greedy back then, and as today the message came through that Sascha had hit the shop, I literally TP’d in my undies to go grab the super affordable multi pack. Four make ups and a ton of options retail at 1800 L$. Do I really need to go in depth about how delicious and lush the body looks? And how much attention has been paid to the various make ups? Aaaah… a picture says more than a 1,000 words… so let’s pretend this is this a 2k word blog post, ok?

Go try a demo and check for yourselves. All of the skins at Adam ‘n Eve have unique characters and won’t make you look like yet another clone.

Skin Flicks Liza & Samantha

Posted in Adam 'n Eve, KA Designs, MV-SL-Fashion, Skin Flicks, Truth, U&R Dogs, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on November 12, 2009| Leave a Comment »

I was over at Skin Flicks earlier, and noticed these 2 new dresses. Since I couldn’t decide which one I like best, I decided to make it easy on myself and just bring both of them home. They come in a numer of colours and colour combinations, but I’m such a sucker for powder colours that I bought both dresses in beige, but as you can see, they are both quite different.

In the front is Liza, with a lovely neckline hem and really well done cap sleeves. and in the back is Samantha, which I just find very elegant with the narrow but deep v-neck. Both dresses have a very flattering high waist line and flowing skirt and it clearly shows how skilful Mavis McGettigan is at creating the illusion of a real fabric.

Other need to knows: Skin Shannen by KA Designs, hair by Truth. Mistral shoes by Adam ‘n Eve, bracelet by U&R Dogs (Ruriko Jewell)

Adam ‘n Eve Desire Autumn Special

Posted in Adam 'n Eve, MV-SL-Fashion, skins, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on November 2, 2009| 1 Comment »

Dark, liquid chocolate.. that’s the best way to describe skin tone 4 of Desire, the dark skin from sachi Vixen @ Adamn ‘n Eve. Today, following the release of the Amanda Autumn specials a couple of weeks ago, sachi has released 4 Autumn special make up for Desire. And whereas I’m  normally not too fond of metallic lips, on a dark skin they just work! The eye make ups are fairly modest, but you’ll definitely want that, to avoid a make up overkill with the lips. After all, less is more… that goes for accessoires, but certainly also for make up.

Other assets: Allure eyes by Chai, hair Heather by Truth, lingerie by The Obscene.

Whippet & Buck, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Mhmmmm… the ladies over at Whippet and Buck sure take their time… but when they decide to release new stuff, be sure it’s all yummy again. This week Dakota and Twiggy finally released their Georgie tapered trousers, which I’m wearing in all 3 outfits, the Lizzy cropped boat neck shirt, shown in bordeaux, to the left) which is really cute and closes with ribbons in the back, and in the middle outfit, the Tea Hawks vest, with some amazing prim work (combined with the Cole boat neck top). In the combination to the right, I’m wearing the Georgie tapered trousers with the Haver tiered frock (peacock coat).

Other assets: Skin Farrah from Rockberry, all hair by Exile and shoes from fri.day (flats) Adam ‘n Eve (Mirage in cream) and Shiny Things (Belle)

Adam ‘n Eve: Amanda Autumn

Posted in Adam 'n Eve, MV-SL-Fashion, skins, Truth, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , on October 20, 2009| 2 Comments »

Adam ‘n Eve: Amanda Autumn, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

I’ve briefly covered Amanda when I wrote about Adam ‘n Eve’s new skins for the skin & shape fair, but now Amanda is in the shop with 4 delicious autumn make ups (Berry, Fruity, Hazel & Ruby). I’m showing you skintone 2, there are 4 in total. I just went over to check out their rennovated skin section and couldn’t help but taking these home with me. The new skin shop is spacious. Previously it was huge but used to be a little overwhelming, because there were just so many different skins. Now Sachi has retired most of them, and the new lay out, with several niches for the various skin lines is such an improvement… Oh well, I’m rambling, I just wanted to share these pretty faces with you. The fat pack is yours for just 1800 L$ and comes with options… bewbage, freckles, hairbase, and all the mani/pedi for every make up.

I’m also wearing Truth’s Gabby hair in walnut, and Last Call’s Sally Trench dress (no longer available).

Posted in Adam 'n Eve, MV-SL-Fashion, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , on October 12, 2009| 1 Comment »

I find myself an awful lot in my undies lately… although these, technically, may not qualify as undies… but they are sexy!

As a special Monday promotion in the weeks leading up to Christmas, Adam n Eve will be having special Beating the Monday Blues promotion items. These items may be new colours of existing items, or special one off exclusives!

Today’s item is a one off exclusive leather set. Included are a gorgeous zipped up top, which is great paired with jeans or skirts and some cute, sassy low ride shorts! The Beating the Monday Blues item is in the boutique to the left of the steps and is only available for the next 24 hours!

Keep an eye on the flickr group to see who else is participating!

I’m also wearing Adam ‘n Eve’s Mei Li skin and Truth’s Rebecca hair.

Preview skin/shape expo : Adam ‘n Eve

Adam ‘n Eve, the brain child of Damen Gorilla and sachi Vixen was one of the major skin brands when I came to SL, now 3 years ago. Recently sachi  has been updating some of her skin lines, and also been making totally new ones. Her recent skins are easier to wear, they fit a way larger range of shapes than they used to do. At the skin/shape expo Sachi will release Amanda (set 2) and Desire, but if you can’t wait that long, you’ll find the first make up set of Amanda and Natasha in the shop already… and I just couldn’t resist putting Portia and Mei Li in here as well, because it shows so well how able sachi is to create various characters in her skins. All these skins are shown on my default shape which for the sake of comparison, I didn’t tweak at all.
