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

W&Y hair: Model 2

W&Y hair: Model 2, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

I just had to share this hair from Waka & Yuki with you. W&Y became well known for their insanely cheap but really nicely done hair, but the brand has grown, and they have recently opened a sim of their own with an awesome new build, very regal and spacious.

Over time they have upped their prices a bit, but with the options they often offer with their hairdo’s 200 for 4 colours is still not a bad price at all. W&Y have not the best textures in my opinion, but they compensate with originality and accesoires.

This hair is from their Model section (Model 2) and i love it because a) I’m a total sucker for feminine short hair and b) I love the retro 60’s cut to this hair.

Other than W&Y I’m wearing Dutch Touch’s Amber skin, Paper Couture’s Diamond Pearl Menagerie jewelry and Donna Flora’s Nivea dress.

Hmm… not sure what exactly started this outfit… but I was fascinated with the Boon SLJ 761 short afro hair and it looks kinda hot with the (new skintone) dark coffee Jolie from Dutch Touch, which will be out soon.

I needed something to contrast with the hair and the skin, so I went over to Donna Flora and picked up the Karen set, of which I’m wearing both the blouse and the jacket. Squinternet Larnia, the creator from Donna Flora has made huge progress ever since I first met her, although it still irks me that some of the layering is not the most logical and that some attachments are not having logical perms. For instance, in a skirt, one part should not be only copy and no mod, while other parts are mod and no copy :-(. But anyway… that’s something for another time. The Karen suit is just delicious. Really well drawn, and with nice prim work.

For the pants I went back to the warm chocolate colour of Lelutka’s Kora pants, and to finish it off, I picked Maitreya’s Neyya toe cap buff shoes.

The earrings are *really* old and discontinued Lady hoops from Lucas Lameth, but I love them for their utter simplicity and classic look.

New stuff @ Truth and Coming Soon@ Dutch Touch

Posted in Coco, Donna Flora, Lucas Lameth, MV-SL-Fashion, Nait Smith, Nylon Outfitters, preview, Rockberry, Truth, tagged fashion, Fashion Feed of SL, Grazia, Grazia Horwitz, MV-SL-Fashion, Second Life, SecondLife, Shopaholicfeed.com, SL, Style, Virtual, Virtual World on October 23, 2009| 1 Comment »

I’ve been a bad blogger this week, with lots of things on the shelves, and little output… but hey… what can I say, RL has been busy this week and pretty much kept me hostage. When I logged in yesterday, I found Truth had dropped his latest creations on me and I think it’s a lovely batch again.

From left to right there is Maxine, soft and feminine, Mackenzie, voluminous and drop dead sexy, Cameron, speaking of sexy, and gorgeous to show off jewelry, leaving the ears and the neck free and last but not least there is Brooke, which is a very casual and a bit messy look.

(wearing: Rockberry Farrah skin, Nylon Outfitters cardi & Coco v-neck t-shirt)

and then I had the pleasure of receiving some of Dutch Touch creator Iki Ikarus latest skin samples. She’s working on the lovely Jolie skin and these are some samples of what the make ups may look like. Iki and I were raving over the emerald eye liner and some of the bold colours for the eyes, but also I’m in love with the fire engine red lips, and I’m confident it will make the final skins.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

Posted in Body Study!, Cupcakes, Donna Flora, MV-SL-Fashion, Truth, tagged fashion, Fashion Feed of SL, Grazia, Grazia Horwitz, MV-SL-Fashion, Second Life, SecondLife, Shopaholicfeed.com, SL, Style, Virtual, Virtual World on October 21, 2009| Leave a Comment »

As with all forms of cancer, early detection is your best chance of surviving, or being cured from breast cancer. Yet there are so many myths surrounding the disease, some of them downright ridiculous, others sound more plausible and are really persistent.

October is Pink Ribbon month, or breast cancer awareness month. and aside from regular self examination, I can highly recommend educating yourselves on some (semi-) professional sites like:

Susan G. Komen Foundation

Internet Based Moms

National Breast Cancer Foundation

American Cancer Society

Breastcancer.org

and there is so much, much more

To help raise a couple of bucks to support research and improve awareness, Diconay Boa, the owner of Body Study! has made this cute set of undies, which sells for 300L$ (1,18 USD) and all proceeds go to the ACS. I think you owe it to yourselves, your sisters, mothers, friends, not only females, but males as well (as approximately 1700 men get diagnosed with breast cancer, and which is usually harder to treat) to go get a set and donate some for the cause. Here’s the LM: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Mar%20De%20Lagrimas/177/129/60

Other stuff worn: Cupcakes Daydream cameo Simmer, Truth’s Yvonne in platinum, and Donna Flora’s Laura necklace.
