Fifth Avenue by Innovations
By Celebrity Trollop | February 20, 2007
Sherona DeGroot of Innovations really delighted me with this latest release that she calls “Fifth Avenue.” The neck scarf put me in the frame of mind of all of the RL fashion week photos I’ve been scanning for the last month — and the hat (which I opted not to wear in this photo) is actually really cute — and composed of reasonably stiff flexiprims so it has a bit of flounce and bounce when your avatar moves. Fifth Avenue is a little black dress all fixed up with an artfully arranged floral print in silver. In my photo I’m wearing the shorter skirt option, but the outfit also comes with a longer prim skirt which transforms it into a beautiful evening gown. The only thing I wasn’t very thrilled with were the included wrist-length gloves. They were just a flat black in color and while gloves would fit with this dress and the sort of events it might be worn to — I just wasn’t that impressed with them compared to the quality of the rest of the gown. Fifth Avenue is available in Black and Plum — and you can see the longer skirt length in the forum post I linked above.
I also decided to pair this dress up with the new makeup set from Tete a Pied: Fevrier. Roslin Petion — my Second Style colleague and makeup artist for Tete a Pied — sent me a pack of them and I was so happy to find that they are available in my favorite red-headed coppery eyebrows. I made a close up of the makeup named Cocktail — which has a very definite mid-80s sort of color palette — but I just can’t get over how the subtle teal on the outer corners of the eyes really amps up my favorite pair of blue eyes in Second Life: Miriel Enfield’s DuoTone “Pre-Dawn.” Although Roslin planted the seeds of the Fevrier makeups with the new TaP outfit for February, it took a little longer than normal for her to finish up the four-pack of makeup because of the fabulous prim nails that were released last week. (Poor Roslin — I must send her nail color requests every other day.)
