Fireflies at sunset

It’s always so lovely to get out of the studio…and find a spot at home to fool around …today I decided to go catch me some fireflies ! (In real life, I only got clouds of mozzzies in the garden ~le-sigh~) I had a box of newness from Jane (thank you Janie!) and hubbidy hubba…it was just the job for prancing about in on the beach…First up…Ive gotta talk “jeans”…yesyesyes…Jane has meshy jeans…and you know what I SO love about these? Fantastico fit ! You get a plethora of sizes …sure..but also…two types of cuff..I’m wearing the “classic” one here, which is just about the most perfect length for me, specially with flats..also there is a slightly longer cuff style which is fab for heels (or taller av’s)…these little gems come in all the shades of denim you could possibly ever want ! from light to dark and inbetweeny…called “sweet n low”…grab a fat pack …cause you’re gonna need it. Im also wearing the handydandy “boyfriend” tank …lotsa colours…simple cut that sliiiiides over to kiss your hipbones…and rucks up sweetly one side…

Change of denim and another new top , “drifter”, so so dainty halter in delicate shades…you know this would look awesomesauce with one of those long maxi mesh skirts too, no? Love how it flares out slightly and dips at the back…(ohnoesss…a firefly is making a run for it !)

And if you liked “drifter”, you’ll love “casey”…same style but a fresh floral fabric…squillions of daisies ! Awww…I decided to release my jar of fireflies…

Finally…my fav of this collection..the “too dye for tank”…I adore this gold tone…worn with one of the lighter denims is “peeeeace man” all the way ! The sweet n low jeans are 200L per pair orrrr a fantabulous greedy pack of FIVE denims tones for just 650L..tanks will rush you up just 140L per shade or a greedy pack of three for 275L…the blouses are 175L each orrrr the steal deal greedy pack of three 345L…demos available instore..thanks Janie ❤

Btw…Im wearing throughout the new Hush Skins releases “Daisy” and “Christine”…these are available at the Skin Addiction Showcase Event (May 25-June10).   Individual makeup sets are $L950 and every set comes with  six different skintones to choose from , light, medium and dark eyebrows, cleavage and no cleavage options, modifyable shape to achieve the full look.

Looks like the designers in SL are opening the summer floodgates early this year…I hung out down by our jetty for this nautical themed outfit..mesh sailor top in beige by CandyMetal (other colours available) new mesh moccasins also by CandyMetal…and some easy going shorts by Somnia.

Arisaris have pulled out all the stops with this gorjus mesh baggy styled blouse & belt combo…absolutly love the rich ruby colour and big floral pattern. The belt is just perfect, great big tassels at the ties…and sits comfortably around your hips.

Bubblez have also headed into summer with this new release dress.”Lovelove”..washed out colours that fade to the hemline..crochet straps, shabby buttons..perfect ! I’m also wearing the May skin gift from Hush…”Marin” in the vanilla skin tone with rainbow make up ! I’m wearing a new release by Hush in the other photos also , “Lily” seduce in honey…Ive rapidly fallen in love with Hush skins…check out the lips on Lily…just peachy…and sooo kissable (I’m reliably informed)…

Looking ahead to those warmer days…Ever an Angel has some new releases for you to snaffle up..I really liked this mesh top “whisper” and found them a great match for the new roll cuff shorts in sand…the top would also look great with a skirt for a dressier occasion. My hair is the latest group gift from Truth, called “bunny”, all group members received a stonking big fat pack of all shades yay! Ohhh, more about this later- but if you’re liking my newww skin…its from Hush..part of their new releases, this ones called “Fay” , I’m wearing the honey tone and glimmer makeup…I simply adore these skins, and for once..I’m wearing it instead of my usual curio *gasp*…such lovely features…and fantastic body contours & shading…dont forget to collect the new April group gift while you’re there…gorjuss eyelashes !

Next release from Ever an Angel is the mesh “lotus garden sandals” and the “lotus garden” mesh top in passion fruit, plusss the skinny trousers in a yummy papaya shade. For those of you who prefer non mesh..the pants are really nice…the sandals have a fairly simple to use HUD…even I managed to get my skin tone matched hurrah!

Last up from me for today (but there is heaps more newness out in the store) is this straight-into-summer ensemble…by the sea tide pool sandals,skirt bracelet & cami top. Suchhhh a lush colour, reminds me of blue skys…nice to see a couple of sizes for the skirt yay!

Sooo many designers, new & old…all with exclusive items for the event..gatcha machines..a hunt..a raffle…and so much more ! Im kicking off my FFL blog with one of my favourite suits…its called “mimi” and is by SF Designs..(thank you Swaffette xx) I already have a different colour of this in my wardrobe..but this is a special exclusive colour just for FFL ! Duck egg blue..scrummy shade..

In the box you get two versions, plus the most darling little matching clutch bag & shoes. If you dont pick this up at the FFL event..you wont be able to buy it later !

Next I have a gatcha dress..just 50L a pop, and its mesh ! Its by Silken Moon..and has some lovely detailing on it..easy to wear. Ive teamed it up with a necklace form Caroline’s Jewelry..and I SO love this ! Sweet key with a teeny clock set into it…tying in nicely with this years FFL theme “its time”..available with black or white pearls..havent taken this off yet ! Im also wearing a skin from one of the specially created “Hygeia” line by MyDear..a donation item..tres chic..totally lovely…get buying ! (loads of skin tones and makeups)

Last for today..but not my last blog for this event is from SF Designs…if youre into gowns or Tuxedo’s…this is what you need. The Speranza gown for us ladies and the co-ordinating Speranza Tux for the Men. Such a wealth of detailing its hard to know where to start..but if you think of SF Design as the “Rolls Royce” of this type of attire..you wont be far wrong. The gown has full and slim skirt versions..a prim bodice that makes it sooo much more three dimensional..the fabric looks heavy and lush..and moves so gracefully its hard not to keep twirrrrling around ! Also in the box is a stunning pair of shoes to wear with it. If youre liking my skin, its also availble at the FFL event, by Hush and called “Amy”, Im still wearing this two days later..its totally adorbs. I chose sultry sage in the honey tone…more shades on display !

Im not big on describing menswear..but Steve looks super handsome in this tuxedo..no? Im big on cuff and cufflinks..such a lovely touch…also has shoes with it..so no worries about searching out a pair ! Thanks Swaffette x

Some info from the organisers also :

So what’s New for 2012?

This year, Fashion for Life spans an incredible TEN lag free sims with over 200 stores selling the latest fashions, accessories, hair and unique designer items made especially for this event. There will also be gacha areas, a hunt, a raffle and a SALE- all with the end goal of raising funds for the American Cancer Society via SL.

The sims will be laid out in a cross formation and will represent the theme “Its Time…” with builds representing stages in time:  past, present, future and timeless. All building and landscaping have been created by some of SL’s top designers and builders to produce a beautiful environment for your charity shopping sprees!

Alongside the fabulous fashion, there will be a sim dedicated to providing a minimum of 12 hours entertainment and activities every day, so you can socialise, have fun and meet new people too.

Our sims have been kindly sponsored by ‘Dream Seeker Estate Corporation’ which has drastically reduced admin expenses, helping to free up even more money for Relay for Life.

Harper Beresford, Fashion for Life Lead executive says:
“Fashion for Life is not just about fashion and it’s not just about fund raising-it’s about supporting the members of our community in SL who have been touched by cancer.”

Cancer touches everyone. We sincerely hope you join us in this kick-off event for Relay for Life in SL, helping raise money for the American Cancer Society.
