Look of the Day, April 20, 2010

Posted in AlaMood, Artilleri, Belleza, Blowpop, LeLutka, LOTD, MV-SL-Fashion, Sugarcube, Truth, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 21, 2010| 2 Comments »

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.

Also New @ Dutch Touch: Kiki

Kiki, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz. image post processed

Like when she made Sjors, immediately followed by Gwen (or vice versa, hard to tell) also this week Iki made a second release after putting Keira in the shop. Kiki is Keira’s sister skin, to quote Ms. Ikarus.

It’s a smaller release, “only” 8 make ups in the skintones cream, caramel and olive. Also, no red brows for Kiki, but instead the most subtle light blonde and brown brows (and the browns will fit a vast range of hair colours).

With Kiki you get the Kiki shape for free. It;s the one Iki used in the vendor shots. She’s a little too extreme for me, so I am showing you Kiki on my own shape and I love the soft look that she gives me. Also Iki has put in a bonus of sl2.0 tattoo hair bases, which come in 12 different blondes, blacks, browns and reds!

Go try Kiki for yourself @ Dutch Touch

Dutch Touch: Keira, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Iki is on a roll again. Today she has released Keira @ Dutch Touch, the latest addition to her ever growing skin collection. Keira comes with a whopping 15 make ups with the freckles and cleavage options.

But this time Iki has made the choice to make separate displays for the blond, the black and yes *drumroll* the red hair skins!!! That means not only there are red eyebrows for Keira, but also red hairbase. And for the die hard hair base lovers, Iki has made some more, for sl2.0 tatoo layer so that you can match your hairbase with your hair texture better than before.

Keira retails for 1000 L$ for a single (all options) skin, and a fatpack of all make ups is a really great deal at 7500 L$.

Al the options in a row:

::kEIra:: Blond
==============
• Blond Eyebrows
• Blond HairBase
• Freckles/Moles option
• Cleavage option
* Prim Eyelashes

::kEIra:: Black

Drumroll……..

Posted in LAQ, skins, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , on April 12, 2010| 7 Comments »

A couple of years ago I had a run in with the creator of RAC, now known as Laqroki or LAQ, and while it was really unpleasant, I ended our conversation with words something like “if you ever make a skin which I do like, I would like to feature it on my blog”. For me that was a big “if” and an even bigger “ever” because it’s no secret how I think about LAQ’s skins. I just never even wanted to put energy in trying to like them, let alone use them. Put off as I was by price, marketing as well as skin quality. Besides there have always been more than enough people wearing the skins, and I’m simply not arrogant enough to think that me wearing them (or not) would have made any impact, positively or negatively, on the brand’s reputation.

Anyway, enough of the past. With the release of the blond Pearl, and a couple of weeks later with brunette Elena I have found not one, but 2 LAQ skins I am more than happy to wear. They are not my fave ever, for that they are a bit too glossy, and there are too much seams. But what a cute faces and a lovely belly, and especially when you compare quality to price, it’s just a very attractive skin, After all, 1990 L$ for a pack of 10 make ups, who is going to whine over a couple of seams?

Hair by fri.day, lingerie by Dutch Touch (on Pearl) and Whippet & Buck (on Elena).

Elle, New @ Belleza

Posted in Belleza, skins, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 11, 2010| Leave a Comment »

[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)

Visit Belleza skins to try the demos.

Look of the Day, April 10, 2010

Posted in Aoharu, LeLutka, LOTD, Mentine, MV-SL-Fashion, SMS, Truth, Whippet & Buck, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 10, 2010| 4 Comments »

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.

/GEEZ/ has a shop

Posted in /GEEZ/, MV-SL-Fashion, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 7, 2010| 1 Comment »

/GEEZ/ shop, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

It has been the idea from the start that AFTER Pose Fair I’d set up a little shop, and I’m proud to have been offered to do so at Copley Square, amidst some of SL’s finest content creators.

Ever since the start of Pose Fair though, I have received so many IMs and note cards with people asking for a LM to the my shop, that I decided to not wait til after Pose Fair, but to go ahead and set up. Luckily Jori left me an offline last night that she had added my logo to the TP board already so there we are… /GEEZ/ has a shop now!

However, I’d still love you to go buy the poses at the fair while it lasts, because over there, all the pose packs are set to a 50% donation to Motivation. So, to put in a little incentive to brave the lag (which I must add, after a few days for craziness, is way less now) the packs at the fair will cost you L$ 250 and the packs at the shop are priced L$ 300.

Formalities, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

The good part of having someone sharing your blog, is that they might actually come up with some cool ideas like “Hey, what about doing a post together?” So here we are. Hunain is looking totally handsome in his Pinstripe Formal Suit in brown, from Aoharu, back Loafers w/Stripe by Hoorenbeek and his almost inseparable HOC Apparel Aviator Style Glasses. Hunain’s skin is a vintage which is no longer available and his hair is Joey in ash brown III by MADesigns.

Yours truly is wearing Maggie in coral by Azul, which I picked to wear to the thinger of my dear Jori and Trouble to confirm their unison (it’s a running gag that it was NOT to be called a wedding, but trust me, it totally was). The perfect shoes for this delicate gown are the Nude Saffron pumps from Lelutka (also because you REALLY need a bit of height to make the gown work!!). The Sparkling Spheres jewelry is from Paper Couture. The elegant updo to go with this look is Jocelyn, by Truth, in espresso, and I’m wearing Dutch Touch’s Maan basic.

Look of the Day, April 3, 2010

Posted in /GEEZ/, GOS, L.Fauna, LeLutka, MV-SL-Fashion, Rozorregalia, So What, Tiny Bird, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , on April 4, 2010| 2 Comments »

This suit with crochet sweater and scarf is from a shop called So What, and it’s made for guys. Yeah… so what? With a little prim adjusting it’s a pretty neat outfit for the girls as well!

Combine it with some great accesoires like the Hydra hand ring from Rozoregalia, and GOS’ Intuition glasses, or maybe even some really elegant pearls to underline the femininity of the ensemble and you’re good to go. Not visible, but a must when wearing androgynous suits, without wanting to actually be androgynous, are some killer stiletto heels. Though not visible, I have chosen the black patent ankle boots from Bax Coen.

I’m wearing L.Fauna’s Lapine Starling tan 1 and Lelutka’s group gift hair Isha in Harvard. The hair base tattoo is a SL2.0 only feature and it’s a freebie provided by Tiny Bird.

New @ Your Skin & Your Shape: Andrea

Posted in skins, Your Skin & Your Shape, tagged , , , , , , , , , on March 31, 2010| 1 Comment »

Ms. Monicuzza Babenco has released various new skins over the last few days. I had the pleasure of receiving her Andrea line, which I find to be a really nice improvement compared to her previous skins. Andrea is generally well blended and pretty much seamless. Also, Andrea has a mouth which I really like, unlike some of the other skins at YS & YS.

Andrea comes in 1 skintone, and 14 different make ups. Also Monicuzza offers a lot of options with her skins, freckles, hairbase, cleavage, in all different combinations. At 800 L$ for a single skin, 3k for a 7-pack and 5.5k for a full fat pack, the price is also very reasonable.
