Bringing you THE BEST OF SECOND LIFE

Dear Ladies, allow me to notice that you love a 24’s fairytale before going to bed…and I love to tell you a story every time I make new shoes…which shoes? These ones: Wow! No. 21:

Here it is your limo to 24 Shoo Shoes .
Wow! No. 21 is very opulent, haute couture sandals with feet, toes, ankles, made in Tiffany Yellow diamonds (also white or black) and rubies, suspended on sinuous jewelry made in the newest technology in sculpting. Extreme gracious heels and a teardrop falling behind you…Platforms and ankles that will totally change the shape of your legs…forget about the ugly default ankles you had before…

They come in ready made 2 sizes, as for the Model look and as for the Betty Boop look. Each of the 254 skin tones are clearly visible on transparent huds with textures…yes, you will not tint them in a plain color, just choose from a 254 collection of the best skin-tones in SL, vivid, realistic and textured in detail (sole, veins, cuticles, shadows and lights). Many of the skin-brands and their tones are alphabetically listed in a Guide so you will just click on a certain button of the hud. Also 26 nail enamels, in a Pedicure hud.

And now, right after the commercials, the promised tale…Once upon the times, I (the blonde me) conspired with myself (the dark me) to make a blogger of (the red-haired) me… LeLutka is to blame for this mixture of ruffled hairs…The glory of my day was that “JENIFFER” wig, and it is so mod that I felt challenged to guess the color of the angels’ curls…and yes, I turned from the art galleries carrying this painting…For those of you who have the feeling that the Cherubs are planning a prank…well, that’s a detail of one of Raphael’s Madonna paintings, so I hope they wouldn’t dare…would they?

And so, I began to look for some Fashion House for angels…they impressed me by having nothing to wear…that’s the naked truth about them: no server-wide inventories, not even the pink newbie dotted dress…and deeply sunken in these thoughts, I went to visit Meghindo Romano’s store, because she won The BOSL Designer Challenge contest for 2010. Isn’t she good at making an apparition of any lady?

The charismatic Meghindo Romano creates gowns that are exceptional, not subtle or for the faint of hearted. Her gowns are what you would expect to see on the red carpets for the awards shows. She is sensitive to the Avatar Rendering Cost and aware of it, so if you want to go to a happy-laggy- event, dress from Meghindo’s collections. When standing in a crashing hurricane, you will keep your feet firmly on the ground and let the gentlemen load you in a second and forever…just to feel they second-live happily ever after…

It’s funny how seemingly random events can lead you into something completely unexpected and delightful. A modeling agency I work with recently asked me to script an upcoming fashion show which would feature the latest design releases from Donna Flora. Before that job I had never been to the store, nor was I aware of the brand, so I decided to check it out.

What a feast for the eyes! Squinternet Larnia’s designs are stunning conceptually, but what really floored me was the quality. I shop for clothes here in SL with two criteria: One, that they be fashionable and something I enjoy wearing; and two, that they be good quality designs. I work hard for my lindens, and I don’t want to buy something, only to be so disappointed by the quality of the work that I never wear it.

Donna Flora clothes are so gorgeous that I went on a shopping spree…and then decided to make this post on three of my favorite designs that I found.

http://slurl.com/secondlife/Garman/205/99/102

The first outfit is Donna Flora’s “Karen Pants.” This outfit can be bought in both skirt and pant versions (I chose the pants). The high-waisted pants are accented by four black buttons and look fantastic. If you look closely at the picture, you can see the detail in both the jacket and the ruffles of the shirt. The first time I put the outfit on, I found myself camming around myself and staring, just being completely vain. I couldn’t get enough of myself…hehe. The outfit is completed with a beautiful and delicate lace scarf. To complete the ensemble, I’m wearing Stiletto Moody “Black Patent” shoes and “127 in Silver” earrings by Kraftika, “Single Lady” hair from Exile and Laqroki’s “Carina Skin Peach Glow #2.”

This next Donna Flora design is called “Nicoletta Mini.” I love this one – it’s a cozy winter outfit, but with attitude. The colors are so soft that they would suit anyone. But once again, what floored me the most was the dedication to detail in the knit sweater top. It’s flawless. I also love the plum-colored mini/sweater bottom that drapes nicely over the short leather-style shorts. It’s both fun and flirty…two adjectives that I use a lot when i dig though my inventory trying to find the perfect outfit to wear.

Paired with this outfit are an amazing pair of boots that my SL partner actually found for me….I squealed with delight when I saw what fantastic taste he had. These “Venice Worn Brown” boots are from Kitties Lair, and they are of extremely high quality without breaking your SL budget. I wear these with many outfits, as they are so versatile. Finishing off the look is Laqroki “Carina Skin Number 6″ and Exile’s “Kaori” hair. This short spiky hairdo is one of the reasons that Exile has recently become one of my favorite places to shop for hair. As someone with a serious hair fetish, I find their hair to be not only affordable, but very realistic and high quality.

This final outfit is my favorite of all: “Rina” from Donna Flora. If you are dreading going outside this winter, put on this cozy but sophisticated suit from Donna Flora, and you’ll never fear the cold outdoors again. This ensemble comes in three clothing options. Wear it as a full dress, or pants suit…or, if you’re feeling extra flirty, suit up in the mini dress version. Take a close look at the detailed knit of this dress/pant suit and the scarf like belt that cinches the waist, and you’ll know that this is a one of a kind outfit that MUST be added to your own personal wardrobe. From the inviting earthtones of the dress to the high turtle neck collar, this design invokes “sophisticated woman” with every step you take. Ward away the chills with the gorgeous knitted hood that includes hair in three shades, and you are ready for a snuggly day with that special someone. Since this outfit comes with nearly everything a woman needs for a complete ensemble, I just needed to add a good pair of shoes – “Chi Chi Pumps” in Brown Velvet by Maitreya.

I encourage you to visit the Donna Flora store for yourself…it truly does not disappoint.

Love and Sunshine,

Occasus
