Though not as insanely hot and humid as during the weekend, summer in the lowlands is still more than present. And hence nothing better than something hot, to keep you cool, like this new Xotic dress from House of Hucci. The necklace, which is really pretty, is part of the dress and holds up the draped fabric on the stomach area. I am wearing the dress with Bax Coen’s brown prestige boots, and PXL Creations’ Candy skin in tan (out now) and Kin’s black Cricket hair.

When months ago I tried on one of the first betas of Candy (back then just named, “beta 1.2 etc”)  I was smitten already with the lovely shape of the mouth.  Then RL took over, and months past til a couple of weeks ago, Hart Larsson sent me some make up samples… on a totally new and refined body and face for “beta”, now named Candy.  Candy comes in 2 skintones for now, Natural (worn) and sunkissed and 27 make ups each.  Each make up comes with 3 eyebrow options, and 2 cleavage options (push up on underwear layer and tattoo layer).

I will post a full review later, but for now, I just wanted to show you how pretty Candy is. This photo is basically unedited, except for some cropping and the adding of a border. I have, however been playing with windlight for this shot. You will find the natural skin slightly darker and more saturated with default light.

Other need to knows:  Daring arm- and finger wrap by alaMood, tattoo by HUZ-tats (not available), hair Maya (platinum) by I Love Olive.

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

1006, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

During one of my many attempts to downscale my inventory, I came across this dress again. It has been in there since… well.. I think since September 16, 2006, which is the day after I originally rezzed, and it was kinda old back then already. It has survived every inventory cleaning so far though and I think that it still looks pretty amazing after all this time, right?

Chip Midnight was one of the first designers around, and probably, the first ever to make photoreal skins commercially available to SL residents (many still use his templates for skins). I don’t know if he ever logs in these days, my guess is, he doesn’t because his profile still links back to onrez,  but his shop is around still (charter members got a plot of free land for life) . It is like a step back in time, vendors with models in system hair (he actually still sells some textured system hair models!), skins which now look bad, but at some time were top of the bill (do consider the fantasy skins though, they are still wonderful, though to today’s standard, expensive), some clothing that just makes me smile when I look at it because… well, because it’s just so very 2005…. But among all the fossils of SL, there are also a few gems like this dress. If you like SLvintage, Chip’s shop is definitely worth the TP.

Anyway, I am rambling, lets just jump to the credits:

Hair: Kasumi in sand by KIn

It is no secret that I am a hard core fan of the work of Twiggy Whippet and Dakota Buck.  Kota is a long term friend of mine and I have been following her designs from the beginning ( I actually still have my Savvy? collection neatly tucked away in my inventory, and if it weren’t so mean to use items that are no longer available on the grid, I would use them in my outfits as well, because the designs still rock) and since Twiggy joined Kota in their current bran Whippet & Buck, the quality of said designs have only improved. The ladies have found their own, unique, style of laid back casual fashion, with amazing textures and a great fit of prim parts.

This is also the case with their latest release, the Bonita eyelet dress and blouse. Available in 6 beautiful pastels (wearing ivory here) , the dress is girly and always a good pick. Available as a separate is the blouse, also in 6 colours, but with a neatly finished hem so that it looks great on a pair of slacks as well.

The jewelry is also from Whippet & Buck. the pearls are small and the broad necklace has a really good fit.

Other than Whippet & Buck, I am wearing the latest work in progress from Hart Larsson @ PXL Creations and my favorite Clawtooth hairdo, True Betty in classic brunette.

SLurls can be found here.

The Asian shirt from yesterday’s look was not the only thing I picked up while I was shopping at Arai. This blue striped Simple Twas also among my purchases. I’m combining it with the red cuffs of Artilleri’s red Beatrix shirt to make it a bit more girly. The red Sendal scarf was a x-mas gift from the creators behind Maitreya and I don’t think it’s available in the shop, but I love it and I wear it quite often.
The Anjuna pants are from Zaara and the white Sheila thongs are from SLink. the grey “My VW Thing”sunglasses are from Surf Couture.

I’m still in PXL Creations new beta skin, although this is like 5 versions after the one I wore yesterday and Anna in timid brown from fri.day is today’s hair.

A bit safari inspired today, I don’t know, maybe because finally the sun is shining here again (and my garden is a mess, worse than a jungle) .

I’m wearing the white Asian shirt from Arai, with the fatigue camo Safari shorts from Casa del Shai. In my Hoorenbeek Lucille boots (coffee) I’m wearing the off white gartered overkneee socks from League.

The Ukuni bracelet and Kizazi necklace are both from Uzuri and the Half Shutter sunglasses from Kalnins, I have stolen from Hunain’s inventory (I think he makes love to these glasses when no one is around, but I kinda have to agree with him, they are among the best glasses on the grid)

Truth’s Sylvia hair from this week’s release is an absolute hit and my skin is a work in progress at PXL Creations. Hart Larsson is still taking make up suggestions.

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.
