In any world I’m always a flibbertygibbet about WHAT TO WEAR – especially on special times like dates. Want to watch me melt down? Watch me try to decide which piece of gorgeousness to wear tonight. But as I was running the gauntlet through the Relay for Life Clothing Fair Sims last night, I decided that tonight is easy – there is so much gorgeous work being displayed in the RFL kiosks – any of them is a win.

For tonight I chose my friend and one of my favies – Clio! We’re not drinking buddy pals but I likes her a lot. And this year she has FOUR count’em FOUR gorgeous contributions in her RFL kiosks to chose from. Each is really diverse but I chose this one because I just adore this icy blue color. (There is one that looks like a really modern,sleek wedding dress that I am itching to get back to pick up. It’s white,thus in my American mind, it’s a wedding dress. I heart it.)

“I’d like to Thank the Academy……..”

The Ziezo gown from Sascha’s Designs put me right into the Oscar Mood as soon as I unpacked it. Elegant and with many skirt options (if you know Sascha’s, she gives you OOODLES OF OPTIONS) this long sleek look just totally spoke to me as a gown for the Academy Awards.

One feature I am loving on this gown is a choice of bodice.

Are you a jewel tone girl, or prefer a more subtle look?
The choco color is also perfect and elegant, really unexpected this time of year and I think that is what makes it such a win. This color never goes out of season, pity we only wear it in the fall.

And as mentioned – with the variations of skirt options you can be sleek or very traditional in a battleship skirt ballgown.

I love the look of the big skirt! MY GOD – IT’S FULL OF STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just like the Oscars………

Where to get it?

• Hair – Exile – Carlotta – Ash

Sascha Frangilli of Sascha’s Designs has created another multi-tasker for your wardrobe. The Ooohlala ensemble, when worn with all it’s pieces, is a great cocktail gown with sexy sparkle and lots of skin,while still maintaining a respectable level of “covered up”. Read the rest of this entry »

I just wanted to pop in real quick and flash my boots… yes B O O T S!!! =P

These are some new ones from Redgrave, which I’ve been wearing pretty much NON stop.  I keep coming up with clever ways to work them into my look, or digging in my inventory just to find a way to wear them.

I love the heels on them, and obviously the incredible sculpt and texture work.  The chain is also super cute, and I love how the boots are worn slightly different on each foot, really adds to to the realism.

I am also wearing my new favorite necklace from LacieCakes,  I decided I really needed a name necklace and Lacie did an amazing job customizing this set for me.  If you are in the market for some fantastic new jewelry, check out LacieCakes, there is a satellite store at Second Style Island!!

I have drooled over this jacked from Baiastice since Sissy Pessoa sent it to me. It’s available in a wide array of colors and I struggled trying to decide WHICH one was the one I love the most. I must have some Valentine leftover because once I tried on this deep red I was in love.

But what to wear WITH IT? Read the rest of this entry »

The limited edition of Musash DO’s Brocade Princess for Valentines will only be available for another 24 hours – after the 14th these two gorgeous colors will be gone gone gone.
