Culture Shock!!!

I made it to the Culture Shock sim… finally and I have to admit… you can go broke there *grins* So many designers made amazing new creations and items for that fashion event.

    The 2nd annual culture shock event opened on May 4th 2012 and will close at the 26th of May. The event is meant as a charity for Doctors Without Borders (known also as Médecins Sans Frontières). This new event will feature art, music and of course – Fashion.

Every store has a mandatory participation of one NEW and EXCLUSIVE (for the duration of the event) item that gives 50 – 100% of the profits to the charity, however because last year we asked for THREE items, most people have more than the minimum.

To start with something I combined the “Lozenges” dress in black and white from [Sakide] with the amazing “Brera” heels from YS&YS. But there are so many new releases and wonderful designs, that I have to part my Culture Shock styles in more then one blog post :p

In the meanwhile you can go and shop yourself crazy at the Culture Shock Sim (http://slurl.com/secondlife/CHIC/127/133/6)

Official Gown of Miss Benin for EOE 2012 by Styles by Danielle

The “Lynxa”gown was made for Essence of Ebony 2012 contest and was worn by Miss Benin – Lynxa on the final day.
The original color – orange with yellow and green represents the country of Benin, and not only by the colors and fabrics, but with the style as well.
The hat is an inseparable part of a Benin folk dress and for Lynxa it has been especially crafted here in SL.
The real eye-catcher on this gown is the golden texture. Gold is, for sure, the hardest one to reproduce in SL, and Dani Plassitz, owner and designer of Styles by Danielle,  has tried her best to make you shine like the sun.
Every detail of the dress is carefully put together. The front jewel and the back sheer fabric are modifiable for you to perfectly adjust it to your shape. The skirts attached to legs come with the special resizer that can resize in any direction. This is especially helpful if your av is very tall or very small.
The “Lynxa Gold” jewelry set that is made especially to complete this gown.
The rhombus and gems resemble the fabric design, and the gold shine is underlined by the texture itself.
The set is transferable and it consists of: necklace, two bracelets, earrings and the ring worn on the index finger.

Mother Earth

TUNES

Again it was the music that inspired me for a styling. Within Temptation is a band that I used to listen to a lot in the past. As I was sorting all my CD’s the last days I found the album again where the song “Mother Earth” was from and just listed to it running in circles :p

The gown is one of the Ashraya Project contributions of Azul. “Tyra” in a special color only for this event made a great basic for the look that was stuck in my mind. The gown has a lot of sheer parts that still cover up all what it has to 😉 The jewelry is as well an Ashraya contribution by Finesmith. “Krinin’s Poem” comes with headpiece, necklace and ring. The gemstones are color changable 🙂

For the face tattoo I used the “Wild Flowers” from White Widow, as well available at the Ashraya Project sim. The hair I found at a huge hair store called Discord Designs. I loved it so much as it is made with the new mesh technique that goes with the avatar so well. The color was matching so well that imagination of all that earth tones that I just loved it 🙂 I hope you had fun listening the tunes and maybe can feel what I was going for 😉

OMG!!! Journey made a dress named after me!!!

God I nearly fainted as Herradura IMed me and gave me a folder with the new Prism outfit and I saw my name in the line… you can make a bet that I could not wait and imediately tried it on… the “Wicca” dress is a wonderful dress made of the mesh technique. It looks similar to the “Yoko” dress but it has a few tiny sweet differences. The little peekaboo at the top for example, that shows the cleavage so wonderful. The colors and patterns of the “Wicca” dress that I already saw are wild, crazy and colorful … crazy like I am :p

Journey.. it is a great pleasure to have aPrism dress named after me and I would like to thank you big time for that honor you have me with that dress and all it’s wonderful versions, patterns and colors 🙂 I am sure it willnot be my last post about the Prism “Wicca” dress  🙂

As far as I heared, the dress will be available from Saturday on at the Prism Mainstore 🙂

Finesmith only for Females? – Way Not!!!

Lately I had a huge discussion after I showed one of my male friends the Finesmith Mainstore, after he asked me for male jewelry. Ok, I have to admit, I did not only show him the male stuff as I wanted to tell him he can use some of the female creations as well. He looked at me as if I was an Alien, tipped his forehead and told me the day when he starts wearing female jewelry will be the day the hell freezes. I told him that many males already do it and he said something about maybe the models and androgyny fashion boys but not a real male… that made me angry and it made a challenge for me…*grins*

Redclaw Inshan, DJ, builder and designer in SL has a very stong and male looking avatar. He has a few cool looking outfits and one of his newest purchases looks like a desert style of the arabian desert. He asked me, if I would know a place where he can get a golden style matching brooch or belt buckle for his outfit. I grinned and told him to take a look at Finesmith and I already hat the “Fabrege” brooch in mind that was made for Rusalka for MVW 2012. He took a look and asked me if they can be resized… I told him for sure they are 😉 What the result was you can see on the picture… the “Fabrege” brooch..made for females on a really male looking avatar’s belt :p
