Blogger Challenge: Barerose 2010, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz. Photo edited in PS

I was over at Barerose earlier and seriously… June Dion from BareRose is one of the all time most fabulous, consistent and creative content creators of SecondLife, who just is underexposed on the blogs. Maybe because she’s such a constant factor, that people tend to focus more on the novelties, but anyway, I got fascinated all over again with the incredible variety of fashion, fantasy, historical and just plain outrageous outfits, all under 200L$ for multiple colors.

Last year our resident vampire fashionisto, Winter Jefferson, started a BareRose appreciation week, which was a huge success. I wouldn’t go that far, but this week, I’d love to see a lot of you going crazy creative with BareRose outfits!

I have picked the Chimera Huntress outfit for this picture, combined with PXL Creations’s Efe skin and L.Fauna’s red Allure eyes.

I’m looking forward to see your entries. Please leave me a link in the comments, so that I can see yours too!!!

❤ Grazia

Pretty ballerina dancing the day away…. Why is it that, when Paper Couture releases their semestral/annual collection, hoards of crazed fashionistas crash Tableau, but when the individual creators on their main avies bring out new stuff, this goes by relatively unnoticed? It must be the roleplay surrounding the Lu sisters in the past, or our deep longing to own stuff from the RL runways at least in SL, since most of us won’t ever be able to afford the designs of couturiers like Dior, Delacroix or Lanvin in RL… but anyway, that aside, I was at Nylon Outfitters yesterday and noticed that Nylon Pinkney has the cutest new stuff out.

I’m wearing her Inner Ballerina tutu skirt, with the also newly released Crochet lacyey wrap and matched it with Tres Blah’s blueberry pinned flower cami and Michami’s plum Maisie leggings. The ballerina pointes are from Bare Rose.

To contrast with all this girly, frilly romantic stuff, I’ve picked alaMood’s Brea toxic set, with a really toxic lime pendant ( I love the combination of purple and lime… don’t ask me why, but I do). My skin is another preview of 5th & Oxford’s Brooke skin (subtle series) and I’m wearing Truth’s Audrey and slightly adjusted the colour of the hair band to match the rest of the outfit. Request to all the hair creators who, like Truth, use texture change accesoires… please add a fairly neutral white or grey texture too, so that us fashion victims can adjust the colour to our outfits more easily.

SLurls can be found here as usual.

I was playing around some with this blouse from the BareRose Chidori Habit outfit, because it comes on the undershirt (tight) layer, as well as on the loose shirt layer. The undershirt is also longer than the shirt, and wearing them together, you have actually a perfect blouse to wear with a high waist skirt, or trousers, like I’ve picked. Actually, I’m a bit mean, because the slacks which I’m wearing are from Last Call, so no longer available, unless you find the Ingrid outfit somewhere on on a yardsale. If you do, and have not previously owned any pieces from Last Call/Dazzle by Ginny Talamasca, buy it, ok? just buy it!
Anyway, so that’s BareRose and Last Call as a base for the outfit, paired with the bright pink wide waist belt from fri.day, and the black Prestige Boots from Bax. The earrings and bangles are Sarayi and Indra from Zaara.

I’m wearing Lelutka’s Eclat dark (make up 1/hairbase) and MADesign’s Army Crop hair.

I just heard on the news that today might be the last real summer day in a while… but I’m in a fall mood already anyway, so while I’ll enjoy the sun today, I can wait for the storms to kick in. I started today’s outfit with the brown Chidori habit cloak from Barerose and teamed it up with ICING’s Femme noir dress, super simple, super classy and one of my all time inventory faves. I dug up Chapeau très Mignon brown fox stole to accesorize, as well as the Paper Couture spring cuff (gems recoloured for a less “spring”look) and fri.day’s brown wide waist belt. The genius peepers from Miel are the finishing touch. Not on the pic, but still part of the outfit, are Blowpop’s 40 dernier brown stockings and Maitreya’s black verve pumps.

I’m wearing Lake Bety pale from &Bean and Adie in black from Mirone. The nailpolish is from Adam ‘n Eve

BareRose has the cutest kimonos out so I just had to indulge myself and spend a whopping 140 L$ on the Okami kimono, shown in blue here :-D. I’m wearing it with Curio’s June 2 Zenia in bean (who says only Japanese chicks can wear kimonos?) The hair is Maitreya’s amazing Moon and the hair flower is Kanzasi Sakura, from Kurotsubaki. I have no idea whether it’s still available, since it’s quite old, but I still like it.
