Wisteria Lane.


I'm backing up my last post with another dress from Couverture.  It was the amazing color of this dress that caught my eye.  Chocolate Arashi calls the color Wisteria and it has a feminine and whimsical feel to it.  Titled 'Zepher', it has the finest spaghetti straps with prim ribbons at the shoulders and features a geometric pattern in the lace. 


I returned to [kik] for some more hair love and found this great style called Atmos shown here in platinum. I'm hair over heels in love with the platinum tone and couldn't stop at one purchase so more to come from  [kik] in future posts..  The hair flower also comes with Atmos and I colored it to match the dress. 


I chose the delicate Nouveau Rose jewelery set in lilac from Eclectica.


My most exciting purchase of the day has to be these gorgeous wedge sandals called 'Monique' in Icy Rose from DeLa.  I have long been a DeLa fan girl and Kuranosuko Kamachi's footwear is just getting better and better if that's possible.

Well Miss Virtual World is nearly upon us.  In around 4 hours the candidates will take the stage for the marathon event.  Having been in the competition myself a few years ago representing my country as Miss Australia, I remember the stress I felt that lasted for around 6 hours if memory serves me correctly.  Constantly on edge trying to ensure I was rezzed, had the right clothes on, hit my marks all while trying not to crash gave me a mega headache.  For me this all began at around 4am so by the time the winner was announced, I was delirious and said a prayer of thanks for not being chosen as I'd never have been able to produce a coherent sentence.  Good luck to all the girls.  Have fun but remember, winning can be a huge burden so be careful what you wish for.  Don't forget your dignity particularly in defeat because your behavior will be remembered long after the fan fare has died down while what you wore will not.

I'm Old Money I'll Have You Know Kyoot.


Sometimes I just have to have an outfit so bad I click PAY without even bothering to look at the price. This was one of those times. I took myself off to Kyoot Army because I noticed in the feeds they were selling furniture/home ware pieces and went for a sticky. I saw this across the room and went, 'that's mine'...click. Ask me why I love it and I all I can tell you is it's my kind of dress. It's unexpected. It doesn't conform. It tells me a story. The woman who wears this dress is smart, tailored yet is so self assured she mixes colors and styles without a thought of playing it safe.  The dress is called New Money but I like to think Chalice is old money.  One who doesn't need to impress with the latest trends...one who makes the trends as they go along.  Ok I'm in fantasy la la land but it's my SL so I can pretend all I want.




This is a really well made set and I'm so impressed with the skirt. It fits like a glove wearing my skinny hip shape (read skirt shape) and I can't see any stretching or splitting of the material. The hat is a bonus and comes with the dress...I just love this whole look.


I purchased this bag from Stitch by Stitch. I had a little spree in Seven's shop yesterday so will be presenting some more SbyS action soon. I couldn't resist hopping back into my Allure shoes by Maitreya. Skin and hair by LeLutka and jewelery by JCNY.


I had some fun the other day judging a round of Miss Virtual World 2011. Sitting there camming in to see the contestants close up, I was struck by how much work these ladies had put into their appearance. It was mind blowing and all I can say is I would hate to be judging the finalists on the night...way too hard and stressful. From what I have seen, the standard is incredibly high and those of you who made it through to the live auditions deserve a gigantic round of applause because every girl I saw looked utterly amazing. Don't worry about haters...you looked AMAZING.

I took a walk around Alberto (Select Girls Shopping Mall) yesterday. WOW it's huge and I couldn't get over the set up of this sim. To the shop owners, builders/designers and managers of this shopping district, brilliant work.

Until next time, be beautiful inside.
