FaMESHed Fall Goodness!

The October round of FaMESHed has been out a couple of days, and I think I have been back three times.  I just love the quality of the designers, the styling and the colors all in this round. It’s one of my most favorite monthly events, and one that I continually find something fresh and exciting at.

e! Eclectic Apparel has released this fantastic turtleneck sweater and plaid skirt.  So many colors to choose from, and I LOVE the fit and look of both pieces.  I’m sure I’ll be going back and buying more.

ValentinaE009

Valentina E. Couture is in this round with another fab dress.  This time a cashmere sweaterdress that is FAB!  Sweaterdresses are one of my most favorite pieces of clothing ever, and I was so excited to see this.  I hope to see it in more colors after the even!

Fair opens with Style and Flair!

Hello Everyone! I’ve been working on a HUGE post for you the last few days.  I hope you will enjoy it.  I was so impressed by this new event, that I wanted to give it and the creators some good time and space.

A new monthly event called Fair has just opened.  It’s being brought to the grid by Chic Management SL, the same group which brings events like the Vintage Fair and the popular With Love, Again Hunt.

“On September 22nd CHIC Management will open the doors to its new monthly event. The event will focus on a theme of time, each designer being inspired by one of the 24 hours in a day.  After September the event will open on the 3rd Saturday of each month. Each month we will try to include clothing, poses, mens products, skins, hair, furnishings, jewelry and hopefully one day shoes too, so that there is a broad range of product types.” via the Chic Management Website.

Fair001

Apple May’s sizzling “Men’s Shirt” for ladies is a great way to open any event!  This is so sexy, I really didn’t want to take it off. Tromp Loeil’s Morning Light Cupboard bed is just a stunning must have piece of furniture.  It comes in either a PG or Adult version, and the animations are smooth and well done.  As a bonus, the textures match some of the Baroque Benches from the Arcade Gatcha Event also going on now.

Fair002

Baiastice has long been one of my favorite designers.  The Perla Tops and Diane capri style trousers are sophisticated and clean, the colors are all beautiful, I had such a hard time choosing.

Fair003.2

This Purple Moon dress is so beautiful it has to have two pictures (It could be a blog entry on its own!) called Meryl it is sleek, feminine, sexy, and just gorgeous. I’m sure I could find about 30 more fitting adjectives but you get the idea!

Fair003

I don’t normally show the backside of outfits, but I just loved how the picture came out.  And doing photos of gowns is not my strong point, even as much as I love to wear them.

Fair004

Valentina E Couture has some of the best flair.  Each new style brings something unexpected and interesting.  This checkered taxi dress is no exception.  I love the high neckline and the detail of the side slit pockets being slightly open is unusual, adding more drama to this fun dress!

Valentina E. @ Summer Harvest Hunt & FaMESHed!

The Summer Harvest Hunt by The Ego Co. is in full swing and one of the cutest mesh dresses in the hunt is from Valentina E. Couture. At The Ego Co webpage you can get SLurl’s and hints to each of the gifts, and don’t forget the in-world group if you need extra encouragement!

Valentina E. is also one of the regulars at FaMESHed and this months dress is a stunner.  It has a snake for a collar that melts into the dress as it goes around the neck and down the side of the dress.

Glam Affair has long been one of my favorite skin makers (I even have skins back to the days of Beauty Avatar!) and I am sooo in love with the newest release Lilith.  I’m wearing it in the America tone. This is the second release with the new skin tones, and each one is so beautiful.  I can’t wait to see more releases!

Valentina E. is in the Plaid!

It’s no secret that I love plaid.  Almost as much as sugar skulls.  But finding a good plaid in SL, that looks good on my AV can at times be frustrating.  But this new release by Valentine E. Couture is a gem!

The “Strapless Bow Dress” is saucy and sophisticated at the same time, I love the belt/bow detail And the bottom edging that pulls out the color of the plaid.  This is win all the way.  I’ve paired it with Skifija’s new Black Sting Boots. Sleek, thigh high leather with a nice pointed toe and hidden zipper detailing.

Valentina E. – Classically Beautiful.

Valentina E. Couture has just released a gorgeous new addition to the lovely Garbo dress.  Lighter colors and floral patterns make this dress a stunner.   The deep cleavage revealing keyhole design paired with the gentle fitted curves just scream wardrobe classic.  One of the things that I really appreciate about this brand is that all of the designs are original, they are not texturing templates, and that to me is a huge thing.

Newness from Valentina E. Couture

Valentina E. Couture has come out with a stunning new dress called Bombshell, and that’s exactly how it looks!  Adeep cleavage revealing neckline combined a gossamer like over dress that gives it a soft shimmery feel.  I love that the under-dress can be worn alone as well, to make it even more versatile.

CHIC² Preview!

On June 4, 2012 CHIC Management celebrates its 2nd birthday.  To celebrate they are holding a special event entitled CHIC²  with 150 of SL’s best loved designers.  “Each brand will have one new and exclusive (for the duration of the event) item with the theme of CHIC” (CHIC press release) and the event runs from the 3rd of June until the 24th.

Here is a small preview of what will be offered.

This new release from ColdLogic is a sweet and sassy strapless dress, sure to be one of my summer favorites.  It’s brand new for the event!

This newest release by Valentina E. Couture is called “Garbo” and comes in gorgeous rich colors.  This dress is a must have and can be worn with or without the sleeves.

The skin in both pictures is the newest from Al Vulo! called Baba2.  I’ve never worn Al Vulo skin before and this is so beautiful.

Valentina E. Couture – The new mesh in town!

Valentina E. Couture is a new shop dedicated to couture mesh clothing.  Just opened today, and these dresses will be instant classics.  There are a total of 6 new dresses each with 2 variations.  I’m going to do a couple posts on this shop in the next few days, just because…  you know…  I can.

Shown above: Silk & Chiffon dress in olive

This dress is all mesh but made up of 3 separate parts.  One thing I think this does well, is that it allows for separate movement of the top and bottom layers.  I love the translucent chiffon.

Shown above:  Strapless Gown in Floral Lilac

Simple and elegant, yet soft and flowing, this strapless dress is fun to wear.  It comes in beautiful colors and is a great addition to any spring wardrobe collection!
