From the Poet's Garden...

Dear readers yesterday I had the pleasure to meet with Cacilia.McMasters of Vero Modero to discuss modeling some of their new Spring line. Cassie couldn't wait to show me some of the new creations form Vero Modero, and after seeing the collection I could see why.  The new Vero Modero collection is a feast of colors and textures that will be pleasing to everyone.  From trendy stripes to stunning floral designs, this is a beautiful example of Second Life creativity.

My eye immediately fell on the Aylin dresses as they were an explosion of beautiful colors that begged to come home with me.  No.  Really.  They did beg, and of course I had to help a few of the little darlings out :)  I settled on the topic of my blog this evening - the Aylin Gypsy dress.  The Aylin Gypsy is a wonderful floral design set on a black background, a combination that is both beautiful and stylish.
To put this look together I drew form a number of sources.  For jewels I went directly to ALB Dream Fashions and used AnaLee's SITA set.  A delightful and colorful set that was a perfect fit.  Next I added the Gypsy Necklace from Earthstones. Finally, I added a pair of Sophia Peeptoes from Gos to complete the look.  I think you will agree the result is pretty and very chic.
The Aylin line is perfect for those hot, sultry Second Life days and a true delight to both see, and wear.  Without a doubt you will have to keep an LM handy to pass out to people asking about this dress.

The Vero Modero collection is a wonderful way to start your Spring season shopping.

My poses are from Posesion's Giz and Fetish sets.

A Little Galliano in the Night...

Vogue released a real treat to bloggers today - Zalyn Baley's Galliano Inspiration.  John
Galliano's Haute Couture design work has sparked the imaginations of so many designers with his incredibly whimsical take of fashion.  Known for his bold looks, this treat from Vogue is truly a tribute to the Galliano style.  For me, it struck a deep chord and I fell for this outfit the second I saw it.  I know you have all felt this.  That moment of clarity when your path to styling an outfit becomes so clear and so defined that making it happen is almost frantic.  That was what this outfit did for me.  I knew exactly what I wanted to do the minute i saw it on my avatar.
To keep true to the art of Galliano, I knew that I had to have a pale, but very detailed look to my face.  For this I went to another fashion icon, this time of Second Life  - AnaLee Balut.  Her ALB Dream Fashion has been pushing the boundaries of what can be done in Second Life for many years.  I chose her Giesha Skin since it offered the perfect look for this style.  AnaLee's daughter ShuShu supplied the incredible Geisha hair.
I used the new Diamond set from FINESMITH for the wonderful earrings.  N-Core supplied the Ultra Platform kicks and the cute knee socks and we have a wrap. 

Vogue is such a fun organization to work with.  This jewel is just one example of the many incredible outfits tucked away in the Vogue store.  Let you imaginations run wild and head over to Vogue today.

Posesion supplied the poses for this shoot from Dahriel's Haute Chic set, and they were just perfect!
