Milla Michinaga @ Michami has released this sexy new dress “Kat” in some beautiful color combinations. I’ve picked the black/silver one for today’s look. Kat comes with both a sculpted and a system skirt, but to be honest, I find that the sculpt skirt gives me a bigger butt than the system skirt, so I’m sticking with that.

I’m combining the dress with Aoharu’s black collarless jacket, Blowpop’s fishnet stockings, Tesla’s black Angelina boots and LeLutka’s black Jills Fighting Talk gloves.

Adding some carfully picked accesoires such as fri.day’s black cinch belt, Mandala’s Shaka necklace and GOS’new Cateye sunglasses and I’m good to go… well, anywhere really.

I’m wearing Belleza’s Elle (blond, pale 6) and Epoque’s Calm hair.

Happy Queen’s day! My fellow Dutch are going a little orange crazy on this day, which is the celebration of the Queen’s Birthday. I’m not likely to go into town today, but I figured I’d post this link to give you an idea what Queen’s Day in Amsterdam is like.

I’m wearing Nicky Ree’s Queen’s Day special Fiona in Orange and the oddly scripted but awesome looking Precious Queen crown, necklace and earrings from Alienbear. Odd because the crown comes with a built in heavy facelight, and the script is not really logical. Once you have figured how to turn it off it’s quite ok though, after all, with windlight who needs facelights anyway but to annoy your fellow residents.

I’m wearing Belleza’s Elle skin and fri.day’s Summer hair.

Well, according to SL it’s still the 20th, so here is today’s look 🙂 . For the first time in a while I ended up at Sugarcube, and picked up this colorful lightly flared skirt. It’s such a fun and flirty number. Somewhat transparent, but you won’t end up in your glitchpants because of multi layering. Less covering is the top of Lelutka’s Ontible dress which I’m wearing, so Blowpop’s white Yvette bra becomes a real part of the outfit. Maitreya’s white ChiChi pumps are the ideal shoes to match with this look.

I find myself being increasingly careful with accesoires. One well chosen piece is often more powerful than wearing a full set. In this case I have chosen the cuff of alaMood’s platinum Celestial set. The red Paula glasses from Artilleri are my all time favorite glasses in SL. No fancy scripts, not primalicious, but I love them.

I’m wearing Belleza’s newest skin Elle in dark mocha (make up 12) and Truth’s Drew hair in espresso.

[update] I could not resist and went back to get some of the mocha skins as well… I know, I’m bad…

A couple of days ago Felicity asked me about my preferences for Belleza’s new skin Elle… there was going to be a lighter, and also darker skin tones than before, and options for eyebrow colors. Now while I am always chameleoning… one day the palest of pale, and the next day a deep cocoa skin, I was thrilled to see the new pale skin from Belleza with the blond brows.  When I woke up today, it was there… Elle. Now I’m a truly happy girl when I can put on some new skin, and Tricky’s are always a pleasure to me. Slightly saturated, but never over done, seamless for about 99%, with a very pleasant body shading and the right amount of contrast, cured nails and feet and a wide range of make up which are never in your face and always stylish.

Ok… get ready for picture overload, because this skin comes with 20 make ups (0-19)

When Yesterday I was discussing with Kota about the finishing touches of Whippet & Buck’s new cropped Rachelle bustier, we were also thinking of ways this lovely item could be worn in various outfits. This is one of them.

We both had the lace cardigan from Coco in mind, so I knew that had to be in it, and personally I’m still a HUGE fan for W&B’s Cole boatneck tops, so I’m wearing the alabaster version here today. And then for a skirt… I picked Zaara’s ivory Larin skirt, because it’s so feminine and beautiful.

The flats I’m wearing are from fri.day and the necklace, which is not available anymore, is made by Miriel Enfield (come back, pretty please?)

Last but not least, I’m still wearing Belleza’s latest skin Alyson (pale, make up 6) which just won’t come off for the sheer cuteness of the face, and fri.day’s Joanna 2 hair in Jaded blond.

Back to school? Please, thanks but no thanks… usually SL is all the high school experience one needs with its dramas and queen bees etc. But I kinda like this look… so… there we go…

This week’s Stumblebum Brigade “Epic Fail” t-shirt from Atomic is just so me… I love the ironic text t-shirts… so I had to go get this one. Mind you, it’s only available this weekend, so get yours while you can! I’m wearing it with Coco’s asymmetric red check skirt and Mischief’s solid Cherry sport socks. Wear some flats with this look, or mary janes… no stilettos, it’ll be too obvious, you know…

One of my favourite accesoires is the cord set from Illusions. I’m wearing the bracelet here, and Artilleri’s Paula glasses are my favourite glasses ever.

Last but not least, I’m wearing Belleza’s Alyson (sunkissed, make up 4) and Truth’s Veruca in Espresso.

I just wanted to quickly share the beautiful make ups and skin tones for Belleza’s Alyson with you. Tricky’s skins have been a steady presence in my favourite skins folder since Bella came out, and this one is yet again more pretty and sexy. The only wish I have left for Belleza skins is a pale which is REALLY pale (not goth pale, but just the “I never sit in the sun”, diaphanous pale. Other than that, it’s l.o.v.e.
Alyson comes in 5 skintones and a whopping 15 make ups (and a base one). All skins come with and without a hairbase and optional push up cleavage. Alyson has only one eyebrow option, which may be an issue for the really light blondes, but personally, I’m fine with the neutral brown brows.
I think Tricky makes indeed some of the most pretty, subtle freckles (not an option… they are standard) and did I mention he makes the best glitter eyeshadow ever since Starley Thereian started her SL hybernation?
Other need to knows: I’m wearing Truth’s Patrice hair, PXL Creations grey/gold eyes and HUZ tats royal henna tattoo.

Alyson, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

I hope your week started as good as mine… No computer system at work, phone overload, and on top of it all, my car got stuck in a pile of snow when I had to run an errand. Consequently, I pulled a muscle when I tried pushing it out, which eventually I succeeded in doing, but oh my… am I happy that for once I didn’t give in to my vanity, and decided to wear my hiking shoes to work today…

Oh well… another skin portrait for today. It’s Belleza’s Alyson. It was a Christmas Group Gift from Tricky. I briefly talked to him yesterday, he’s currently working steadily on the make ups and the hair bases and expects a release of this beauty by next weekend… How’s that to look forward to?

Other need to knows: I’m wearing Truth’s Lara in Walnut, and the top is an upcoming release from Michami… yes… newness is on its way!!! The necklace was a limited edition from MIriel, and is no longer available. I know… I’m mean. I miss Miriel!

I like taking portraits and it’s something I’d like to do more often.
When Tricky Boucher from Belleza sent out a group gift of his latest skin Thomas, it tickled me to update my guy shape and take some pics. I think he’s hot, if I may say so myself.

Weeee… more goodness on my pixel scalp… this time from the amazing Kavar Cleanslate, the creator from Exile, who really rocks my socks with his new textures. I just love his hazlenut texture, so I’m wearing it for all three of his new releases, from left to right: Brigitte (my fave, too sexy for my own good), Kalea (lovely & messy and quite big) and Stone Fox (smooth, gorgeous and unisex!)

I’m also wearing Belleza’s Jessie sunkiss 9 and Sugarcube’s cute new turtleneck

I’ve been running around in the same outfit for days now, I guess that means it deserves to be blogged. I also realise it’s pretty much a Coco outfit,but the white t-shirt is one of my fave basics in my inventory, and their new roll up jeans has these cute pockets so I couldn’t resist buying it when it was released last weekend. The tied around the waist striped shirt is also one of the things that I keep digging up from my inventory. It is really well made, with a lot of attention for details.
With all these goodies, I’m wearing Shiny Things Jane Wedges (has anyone heard from Fally recently? It’s been ages that she has made new shoes!), Kari’s industrial watch and Illusions Cord necklace.

I’m a little in love with Belleza’s new Jesse skin. I’m wearing make up 9 in the sunkissed tone, and Evie, from Truth, is today’s hair,
