Today I am happy to do my first blog post for the Couturier’s Docks 🙂 As mentioned before in a another post, this is a very special event that features a few designers and some very special designs 🙂 (http://wiccamerlin.wordpress.com/2012/05/16/the-couturiers-docks/)
Today I just mixed and matched a few of them together as I liked the cute look that came out 🙂
The dress comes from SoliDea FoliEs and is called “Polly Doll” and it was made for this event. The outfit contains the gloves, the neck part that goes down over the shoulders and the cute corset. To make it easier to wear the corset, Mila Tatham included an alpha layer for that part of the body.
The hat looks like it was made for that outfit but it is not actually part of it. the hat comes off the house of h.m.a.e.m. and it looks perfect to the “Polly Doll” outfit.
Last but not least, Julie Hastings – owner and designer of White Widow – created an amazing facetattoo for the Couturier’s Docks. The “Feather” tattoo is available in different colors and you always have the option of wearing it with or without an eyeshadow.
You should not miss that amazing and special event on the SaliMar Sim (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/SaliMar/61/194/23)

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)

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 😉
