Front Row: Vanitas Vesture

Here is another treat from the Glance Front Row event coming up tomorrow, April 1st. This lovely little dress is from Vanitas Vesture.

This ladylike dress is called Obsessive, and I have been obsessed with strutting around my house in it! The style is simple, but the print is what really brings out the beauty in the lines.

The Front Row event takes us on a fashion tour of 50 of Second Life’s best designers. 100% of the proceeds of all of the Front Row items go to Relay For Life. Pretty stuff and a good cause? Heck yes!

Hello dolly!

Yep, I’m a Jane fangirl. I can’t seem to help myself. Everytime I am trying to get dressed, that’s immediately the folder I run to. And when Janie releases something new… well, it’s like being sprinkled with happy dust.

The new Babushka Dolls top is probably my favorite of her new releases this week. So cute!

Look at how sweet this top is!! You can only really see 3 of the dollies in the picture, but there are five around the shirt. So freakin’ cute!

There have been TONS of new goodies at Jane in the last couple of weeks, so really, if you haven’t been by, you’re missing out! Go now!

Pose Fair!!

Guess what’s coming up this Friday? POSE FAIR!!! If you do a lot of photos, this is like a slice of heaven! Bunches of the grid’s best posemakers coming together in one place? Hell yeah! I grabbed my man last night [hi honey!] and we played on some of the poses that I’ve been allowed to see early.

From !Bang comes this cute couples pose called Comfort Counts. It will be a dollarbie at the Pose Fair!

aDORKable Poses is a place that I love for awesome pose props, and this one – Play In My Box – is certainly awesome! It has 5 unisex poses and I love it! Oh, and Aldwyn is NOT naked in this picture! Or IS he? :-p

And from Hopscotch, this pose – Say It – is sensual and sexy. I helped name it, so I double love it!

Pose Fair starts at 12pm SLT on Friday, April 1st. No fooling! It will be amazing, so I’m sure I will see you guys there!

Front Row: Nemesis

I was very honored to be chosen as one of the bloggers for the Glance International Front Row event. Fifty of the grid’s best designers are taking part in this “fashion tour” and for the month of April, you’ll be able to stop by their mainstores and pick up some new designs with 100% of the proceeds going towards Relay For Life. Over the next month, I’ll be showing you some of the best from the event. Let’s get started with this wonderful outfit from Nemesis!

The red Bustier is a simply lovely top that you can dress up or down in many ways. I layered it over a t-shirt with some jeans and it looked fab! And the Summer Skirt in black and red is just adorable! I love the big big buttons that go down the front.

Front Row starts on April 1st at 12pm SLT and I’ll tell you all – get ready for some amazing shopping!

Esmerelda Would Approve

Did I mention how in love I am with this month’s Spruce Up Your Space theme? So BoHo just appeals to me! This weekend, Belle Belle presents us with La Roulotte, a charming little gypsy wagon!

435 prims of adorable, I am simply in love with this little wagon! Makes me want to go bare foot and dance around outside while shaking a tambourine. The inside is deliciously detailed with chairs and knick knacks and even a crystal ball!

You can pick up La Roulotte this weekend at Belle Belle for Spruce Up Your Space for the low low price of $150L. It’s a steal!!

Spring Holiday

Ms. Janie Marlowe has made with the goodies again this week and oh, what a week it is at Jane! I absolutely fell in love with this darling little Patchwork Dress!

This strapless sundress is just precious! I love the texture. The subtle print of flowers and butterflies makes this perfect for spring. Oh Janie, how you appeal to my girly girl side!

Do you like my petals? They come from aDORKable Poses‘ Petals In The Wind set for Chic Limited this month. The set contains 4 petals props with poses and each one is sooo cute and so awesome for pictures! There are actually 8 petals props because you get to choose between the pink and white petals, or the grayscale petals that you can tint. Guess which one I chose? 🙂

I don’t know about you guys, but I really think it’s time to go shopping!

BoHo, baby!

This month’s Spruce Up Your Space theme is So BoHo! I got utterly giddy when I heard the theme because that’s a style I like a whole lot! And I got even more excited when I found out Funky Junk was going to be in it. Look at this CUTE little house Ulaa made for the event!

Isn’t it just adorable? Well, if you think this is good – let’s take a look inside!!

The living room is large and spacious with a fun wallpaper! Lots of room to pack in your favorite stuff. The fireplace facade with the art and stuff on top is also included in your BoHo Cottage, but is of course removable if you need to save on prims. If you look at the two Fondant Poufs in the middle of the room, those are from LISP Bazaar, on sale for SUYS this weekend as well.

I set up this room as a kitchen/dining area. The large windows have a really cool soft colored texture that tie in with the wallpapers in the house, and with the stained glass in the house.

And of course, what’s a house without a bedroom? I wasn’t quite sure about this wallpaper when I first saw it, but I gotta say, it totally grew on me. It’s just so different and so … boho! The Mia Palette Bed that I’m laying on is from Mudhoney and is also for SUYS this weekend. It’s so sweet, and fits into this house SO well.

The Funky Junk BoHo Cottage comes with 2 sets of texture change drapes, 3 pieces of wall art, the fireplace mantle, and a scripted porch light. It is 99 prims rezzed by itself, 172 with all the extra goodies. Everything is copy/mod, no transfer.

Spruce Up Your Space for this weekend is only a few more hours, but I’m pretty sure you’ll be able to pick up these items at regular price after the weekend is over if you miss it. At any price, it’s something you’ve got to have!

Some of the stores I used while decorating this house:

Mudhoney
LISP Bazaar
Little Boxes
Belle Belle
Second Spaces

The Orient Express

Do you like to travel? I do, but I’ve never been on a train before. At least, not a beautiful, luxurious train.

From Belle Belle‘s line of Bliss Boxes comes The Orient Express! Oh, it is a marvel! 799 prims of wonderful, this train is exactly how you would expect a beautiful, old fashioned, 1920s train to look. You’d be riding in style in this!

Of course, there are PLENTY of animations inside. No, let me say that again. PLENTY OF ANIMATIONS. Like….

Eating!

And smooching!

And…well… you know. Believe me, lots of those! *wink wink nudge nudge*

There are also poses in the passageway as well, and in the cute little bathroom, which I didn’t get a photo of.

The Orient Express is 799 prims, copy, no mod and no transfer. It comes with the Bliss Box Cloud so that you can ride the cloud up into the sky to rez, then touch the telephone in the car to call the cloud down when you’re ready to leave the train. It’s really a marvelous system!

But, you don’t need me talking about it. Go to Belle Belle and get your own! Now excuse us…we need a nap!

Royally Sweet

I am so excited! One of my friends, QueenKellee Kuu, is back in SL and has reopened her store – Royally! Kellee is pretty awesome, and she’s reopened with items for the Pacific Crisis Fundraiser. I HAD to go buy this outfit because not only is it darling, it’s named after me!!

This is the Alicia ballet outfit, and it is simply too cute for words! The outfit comes with 3 different style skirts, and they are able to change colors. Love love love!

Kellee also has some lovely turtlenecks out for PCF as well, and you can purchase the turtlenecks or the outfit I’m wearing either at PCF or at Royally.

More From PCF

The Pacific Crisis Fundraiser starts at 12am SLT! Even more creators have put items in there since yesterday. It’s AMAZING. And all the designers have at least one item that has 100% of the proceeds going to UNICEF, so really, how can you NOT shop? The fundraiser hasn’t even been open except for bloggers & designers and has already earned over $1300 USD!!

This dreamy little Off Shoulder Gauze Tunic from Aoharu is just so sweet. I absolutely love it. And really, you could dress it up or down, which is something I always look for when buying outfits. The wonderful Zsa Zsa Leo ring from Donna Flora is also not to be missed. I just love big rings, and turquoise, and this is a lovely combination of both.

The Pacific Crisis Fundraiser starts tonight at 12am SLT and goes until April 10th. Shop shop shop!
