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.

The other day there was (again) a discussion on plurk about system skirts. Either you love them or you hate them, apparently. Well, I love them… and to be honest, I think the haters haven’t yet tried a skirt from a designer who actually knows what he/she is doing with the skirt template. Yes, due to how the SL avi mesh is done, you get a big butt when you wear a system skirt, but…. hello… that’s what those shape sliders are for… set that butt on 0, make your hips a little less voluptuous and cut off a wee bit of those saddle bags, and voilà, there you go. Anyway, I’m wearing Ingenue’s Memo skirt in Carribean here and the Paris Blouse is from LG Femme.

I’m going to dedicate a whole blog post to SLink’s amazing new Michaela shoes on of these days, but for now, let me suffice to say they are currently the best deal as far as scripted prim feet shoes go. I’m wearing the teal Michaela’s today. The Moon River jewelry is from Magic Nook.

Tiny Bird has just released new hair, and after the survey Autumn to ask feed back about the fitting of Tiny Bird hair, this is such an easy fit for me! Thanks, Aut!!! I’m wearing Magic Trick in warm black today. My skin is KA Designs latest release Iman in tan (make up 1)

Fade Lei @ Ugly Duck has a new skin out, Lily, and while it’s not my every day face, I love the carefully drawn features, which give me something diaphanous and fragile. I’m wearing it today with fri.day’s Mandy in jaded blond. Although the skin has quite dark brows, it doesn;t look bad at all with this shade of blond.

Niniko’s low rise jeans with prim belt is one of those must have basics. It’s in my current “quick”outfit… to put on in otherwise embarrassing situations, like a crash and relog on Ahern. Whippet & Buck’s Flutter tank in Akaroa is another one of my current favorites and fri.day’s Tourist jacket in army has been lurking in my inventory for quite some time, but I have never worn it til now.

Those Shoes are from Smersh, and the simple silver necklace is unreleased, it’s something Jori from alaMood has been fiddling with.

Black is the new black.. especially when it’s denim. Always good for cool and/or stylish looks. Zaara’s classic jeans are currently among my faves. I’m wearing the charcoal ones here, and Aoharu’s black front knot shirt to go with it. Under that I’m wearing Boom’s sheer powder Her Pleasure bandeau top. I could have done without it, but, well… what you don’t show, is often more alluring than what is blatantly out there. The tattoo is not for sale, Hunain made it. I like text tattoos and wouldnt mind seeing more of them. My sneakers are from 2real. I told you the other day that Mandala has new stuff out, this is their Hannya necklace. The ‘Pink Eel sunglasses are from Shade Throne.

I’m wearing fri.day’s Marie in cranky brown, and Dutch Touch’s Maan pastel.

LOTD, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

I’m using Zaara’s lime Churidar (which came with the fuchsia Syona Kurta set) and matched it with Très Blah’s black scoop neck top for today’s look. The back of Maitreya’s Billow Boots matches perfectly with the black of the top. You’d be surprised how bad different shades of black can look together, but this is a good fit!

I’ve kept accesoires simple with Illusions’cord necklace and bracelet, and Artilleri’s Onyxia teal sunglasses. The bow belongs to the scoop neck top.

I’m wearing Tuli’s Sayuri tone 2 make up 1 (freckles) and Tukinowaguma’s Ellie hair in black and then tinted in some of the many options that pop up when you touch the hair. Lagtastic without a doubt, but cute.

A quick one today, because I have to hurry. I hate starting my days in a rush, but… oh well, I suppose sometimes it’s just that way.

I’m wearing Argrace’s new chiffon tunic (small flower), Ingenue’s Liasis shoes in late and Boom’s Chains of 925.

Today’s skin of choice is the beautiful red brow version of Dutch Touch’s Keira (caramel, dawn) and Truth’s copper Tesa hair is the finishing touch to this quite romantic look.

A special heads up for my eyes, because I rarely mention them. 99% of my time I find myself wearing these Glow eyes from PXL Creations in greygold. I used to be a hard core Miriel fan, but I love these just as much these days.

SLurls are listed here, as usual.

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.

This look started out with a totally different idea… I wanted to join this weekend’s geekiness of the project Themeory, but then I saw the pink Unisexy Dungarees at Pig… and before I knew it, I was thrown back in the girly pink mood. I was at Niniko’s earlier and picked up this big shirt and since I’m running around in my undies more than enough already, I picked Très Blah’s grey neato shirt (former 50L Friday item) to make myself decent. Fri.day’s berry flats and Maitreya’s violet/pink long scarf complete my Sunday look.

Sayuri, Tuli’s new skin which will be released on April 22 is my current skin of choice, I’m wearing tone 1, make up 6 here and Maitreya’s Green II in bistre is today’s hair.

Today’s look started with yesterday’s Flutter tank top from Whippet & Buck (50 L$ Friday exclusive) and Aoharu’s front knot shirt in pink. I wanted to go all pink, so I went over to Mentine to pick up their pink tight knee boots, but while there my eye got caught by the icecream colour packs, and instead of also wearing a pink skirt, I went to So many Styles and instead got the plain mint chiffon skirt .

Dakota Buck made the pretty lady skull necklaces for Whippet & Buck some time ago, and the Plastic Pink version matches nicely with the rest. Last but not least, I’m wearing Fishy Strawberry’s college glasses which were a 50 L$ Friday item this week.

I first tried on some really pink make ups, but ended up wearing Lelutka’s Ife (sunkissed make up 2) because about every other option I tried made me look SO sweet I got sick of it, and Truth’s Drew in night is the hair of choice today.

A quick and comfortable look for today. I wanted spring, and laid back, but also SLink’s awesome new Tiger heels (Lychee), just because my pixel feet never hurt anyway :-). Maitreya’s BF jeans (including belt) is great for any casual look. I’ve had it for ages, but I keep going back to it, so in my opinion, it’s a classic! The salmon top is from Dutch Touch (lingerie section) and the flower bolero is from Feather. I bought it at Clothing Fair, but I think this will be available in their shop now.

My skin is Gwen spring, from Dutch Touch, in cream. Hair is the latest release from Lamb!, Ambrosia, in powder and the hair flowers are from UME mode.

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.

Happy St. Paddy’s day! I’m wearing this gorgeous St. Pat’s Clover gown from Nicky Ree, with nothing else but Tuli’s Eva (release date March 18, 2010 – skin tone 2, make up 8) and Truth’s Jocelyn in copper (color modified)

Not visible, but a handy styling tip…. Maitreya’s Lime slinky stilettos match the clover color perfectly.
