She Looks Fast Just Standing Still...

I met a new designer today.  Vasso Graves is the designer and owner of Blackrose Fashions.  As you will no doubt pick up from my previous columns, I am a stickler about details in the clothing I write about.  So with that in mind you may be surprised to read my next statement.  Vasso Graves has produced clothing of the finest quality i have seen in a while.  Her mesh items are flawless and have a texture and detail that is nearly unmatched.

I literally could not wait to style and shoot this clothing.  For this styling I chose her Zippered Mini along with a striped top.  The fit of each item was again - flawless.  The texturing and shadows were a wonder to behold - exquisite workmanship is so evident.  To finish this outfit I chose thigh high Valquiria boots from Kungler, Jewels from Lazuri, and a stunning hair from the lovely Vikeejean at Loovus Dzevoor.  My makeup is by Blackliquid as are the wonderful Slink nails she produces. I added a Ferrari-style car from Felgo Motors and am thrilled with the results.

Not only is this a lovely outfit, the quality is amazing.  Vasso and I talked a bit and she is a darling woman who truly enjoys producing these creations.  This clothing line is a sure hit.  I told her her prices were too low, so RUN, do not walk, to get yours today...

I adore the creativity and brilliance of Vikeejean Xevion.  This woman is one of the best designers in Second Life, and her Loovus Dzevoor brand consistently produces some of the most innovative and stunning designs on the grid.  After seeing a recent ad, I asked Vikeejean if I could blog her latest creation - Innosense.  Vikeejean produced this gem for the LIV-GLAM Boutique hunt gift that starts on 10/27/2013.

I was drawn to the use of a luscious transparent layer over a bold leopard print design. The resulting look is so very alluring.

As you can see, the overall look is a bright splash of color against the autumn backdrop of Neva Sky Villi.  I feel that this look is a sweet, sophisticated ensemble that works from the boardroom to a cocktail party.  Needless to say, this dress did pass the dance test as well!

As with every creation from LD, the outfit's fit and detailing is suburb.  Coupled with some jewels from Mandala, and shoes from Co Fiftyseven the results are quite nice.

This dress is sure to go fast.  Make certain you get to the LIV-GLAM Boutique hunt today!

Upendo na mwanga wa mwezi ... (Love by the light of the moon...)

My dear readers, one of my favorite designers in Second Life has to be Loovus Dzevavor.  The vibrant color palate and exquisite attention to detail are evident from the first wearing.  Coupled with exciting styles, these fashions are hard to beat.  My topic for today is a new design by Vikeejean that is a limited edition and available only at one location in-world.  The Loovus Dzevavor Surreal Dress is a wonderful interplay of style and substance and the color palate is just a sheer delight.

The dress is just a symphony of colors and patterns that play so well together.  I particularly like the vibrant green side panels that show off one's figure so well.  the center panel is a wild pattern that truly makes this dress unique.  I completed this styling by adding Aesthetic Value from FINESMITH as it fit the mood and heritage of this dress perfectly.  Pumps form Gos completed the look with some goodness from Blackliquid's makeup line adding the finishing touches.

The result is a colorful harmony that can be worn in so many places.  While it has a playful almost casual air it it, Surreal can easily be accessorized to work in more formal climates as well.  I can easily see this becoming a staple of my wardrobe it is just so versatile.  It is part of the Summer 2013 designs just released, and only 100 copies will be sold.  Surreal can only be purchased from the Limited Bazaar @ Euphoria.   It is a truly unique look that is sure to please.

The Heart of Africa...

My dear readers, as you who follow my blog know by now I have just been loving the Avenue Fashion Week shows.  One of the designers who has really stood out for me has been Loovus Dzevavor.  I have been consistently impressed by the quality of both the designs and the styles of each piece I've gotten there.  So, today, I've decided to write about another work of art to come out of that very wonderful store.  The Vanettaesque dress is a special and limited dress - only 100 will be sold.  The minute i laid eyes on it I knew it had to follow me home.

The very first thing one notices about the Vanettaesque are the incredible colors and textures used.  This dress is so well done you almost feel like you can reach out and touch it.  The styling is stunning with a cute zipper in the back to give this dress an ability to move well.  The bold use of color gives this dress a class that transcends being a simple shift.  You will find yourself putting this on to go out more often than not, because it is so very striking.  To complete this look I added some stunning jewels from Finesmith - both the Sdares and Denna bracelets as well as the new Here Comes the Sun run in Fire.

 

Some trusty heels from N-Core finished this off quite well.  I have to say that the reaction when i wore this was pretty profound.  Walking into one of my favorite haunts i immediately got 6 IMs asking where I'd gotten this incredible dress.  Well, like I said... it is limited and available at the Avenue retail area for just a short time more.
