My Guilty Confessions And A SLook.
Mz Straw-Meme has devised another great idea so I'll do that first then talk about my look. Oh dear...think Chalice think. What are my guilty confessions? I'm sure I have some in there...thinking....thinking. OK, here I go opening up which is sometimes kind of scary because of the judgement that goes along with it.
1. I try all kinds of ways to make my blog more popular and get it out there but they don't seem to work.
I think I shoot myself in the foot with this because in SL I've become so reserved I'm practically invisible. This is reflective of my RL at the moment because of some tragedies I experienced last year that I've kind of cocooned myself for protection. I've tried repeatedly to get my blog linked to some of the more popular feeds, but they haven't responded which has knocked my confidence about whether the time and money I spend blogging is really worth it. My hits both on the blog and in Flickr aren't that high and I secretly wish I could break through the glass ceiling and become more notable in SL. I question whether my style is rubbish, my pictures passé and that my opinions are nondescript. I know I shouldn't worry but since this is about confessions, this is one of mine.
2. I hate the process of putting links in my style credits at the end of each post.
I do want the designers to get their due credit and make it easy for people to catch a TP to their stores, but it's soooooo damn tedious.
3. I read Shopping Cart Disco's SLectrets every week hoping I'll know at least what one of them is about.
Because I'm out of the inner circle of whatever goes off in SL, I read them and they go straight over my head. I then read the PLURK comments and the blog comments and even then, it's like another language. Who's the shoe person? Who's the penis person? I dunno! This probably stems from the fact that I have no inner circle in-world anymore that I live vicariously through and on the periphery of what's going down via blogs, PLURK etc. PS - I need more PLURK friends, hint, hint.
4. When I'm out and about searching for new shops, if I see those horrid little skirts of years ago and wall upon wall of slutty looking badly made clothing, I fly right on past.
I'm sure you know the shops I'm talking about. It's like do you not even look at the relevance of what you're selling compared to the fabulous fashion that's available? Even today, looking through the window of some stores, its like a time warp of what was available 5 or 6 years ago and the decor, omg, update, please update. Take a trip around SL and see the way things have progressed then go back to your store and take an objective look around. Gawd I can feel the knives hovering at my back.
5. I confess that I wish there was a blog like SL Fashion Police around again.
I admit I used to laugh my head off looking at some of the avi's and bad fashion they used to show on their blog. I know it's mean spirited but I think if Joan River's and Fashion Police can get away with it on real people, a SL version isn't that horrible. I admit to taking pics of some avi's around the traps that seriously look like road kill. I sometimes get the impulse to pop it on my blog but that's not what my blog is about. Hmmm. Maybe there's an opening?????
So there are some of my SLecret confessions - be kind :-)
I've had this woolen bolero from Bounce for ages and in my mess of an inventory, forgot about it. I popped it on and paired it with my newly purchased LeeZu 'Yve' pants in Vintage Black. They're so cute and I love the little flare above the knee. I found the white tights at DeeTaleZ. I was really impressed by their selection of socks, tights and leggings so if you are in the market for some, go have a look. The shoes were a subscriber gift from Slink called 'Lara Mary Jane's' and the anklets I found at LouLou. The necklace and earrings work so well with this look I think and are from Maxi Gossamer called 'Isis Solar Magic'.
Thank goodness Belleza is on board with the Slink Hand Applier and am wearing Mya skin in the Pale tone. I couldn't find a Feet Applier so would love it if you did one Tricky. If not, you're fabulous anyway and a skin maker of the highest regard.
Now here I go doing my least favorite thing, giving you LM's.

Little Dress...Big Impact.
I admit I'm feeling a bit down since Mother's Day. Having lost my mum in October last year, it really hit home how much I miss her and would give anything for her to be in the land of the living. Not that I need a special day for the loss to hit home because everyday she's on my mind. So I send out special love to all those who have lost their mum's. On the odd occasion she came in and watched me interact in SL, she was fascinated by the concept and thought it was hysterical when I was Miss Australia in Miss Virtual World 2009. She thought my outfits on that day were beautiful and booed when I didn't win saying the judges were blind...only a mother eh?
Anyway today I'm featuring a new release dress from Kanou called 'Monica' shown in Turquoise. Monica is also available in Chocolate, Pistachio, Raspberry, Tangerine and Wine colors. Its a gem of a dress and I love the fancy straps and flared trim on the bodice. It sells for a mere L$150 which is an excellent price for this sexy little number.
The hair flower is from Miel. I do have a soft spot for hair adornments and usually pick them up around the place. I admit to having a splurge on hair at Diva. They have lucky boards there that change every 5 minutes so its well worth spending some time there and if you're lucky, your letter will come up and you will have some great free hair. This style is called 'Kall' in Moon Stone color. I think designer Marisa Kira has created such realistic hair and her ability to produce whispy, flowy styles gives a whole new dimension to SL hair.
Again I headed over to Slink to purchase some more add-on shoes compatible with their natural feet. This style is called 'Fabric Pumps' in black. The bag I picked up from Indyra Originals called 'Marina Shoulder Tote'. I'm very impressed with the realistic texturing and gold hardware.

Please note, I hope these LM's are correct. SL was being a pain due to rolling restarts and I was unable to get the LM's from the world map like I usually do. If they are wrong, I apologise.

Lillies Of The Valley Gacha Festival
Gawd I'm churning out posts like a mad woman which is applicable because I am a mad woman. For those of you, if there are any of you, familiar with my blog, I don't usually blog events but I've come to know Alyssalillian McMinnar, the designer at Zero Cool Desingz and organizer of the Lillies Of The Valley Gacha Festival currently running until May 26 and thought I would join her group of bloggers to raise awareness of the event.
Today I'm showing a small selection of gacha items available, but I want to stress I'm not showing all of the color options.
Here are a few of the pretty fans available from the designer of Luziefee. They're so delicate adorned with intricate designs and contain a pose whereby you fan yourself. There are 7 designs in the gacha manger but all of them are fab-tastic.
Next I'm showing the "Baber" jewelry set of earrings and necklace available in various colors. See the little elephant head on the necklace. His trunk is kind of up so that's good luck. These are designed by N@N@ and I do believe there are 5 color choices.
These earrings and necklaces are also from N@N@ called 'Emilly'. Great for those times when you don't want a long dangling necklace but something short around the neck. They also come in 5 color choices, but remember you can swap them with others if you double up on a color.
I have lots more to show you over the coming days, so stay tuned for gacha mail.

Blow Me.
What fun I've had shopping today. I just wish I had more time to style everything I've purchased and get it up on the blog but alas, there are only so many hours in my SL day.
Like the bee hive? Its a new release from Vanity Hair called 'Diavolo'. Its so big a seagull flew in and I'm yet to find it. Great style Tabata.
I got me some big ornate specs from Finesmith Jewelery and Accessories called 'BangBang'. I do love a good pair of goggles and these are certainly out there.
Now I've had this top for a few weeks and was waiting to blog it. I just love the line of it and the random patterns. Anything that says 'Blow Me' is worth wearing in my book. It's from HighRize called 'Blow Me Silver Balloon Top'.
The pants are from LeeZu called 'Florentine High Heel Pants'. Here's a new concept...they come with the boots attached. Brilliant. I think LeeZu's selection of pants are so innovative and I must shop there more often.
I'm partial to razor back tops as they show off the back and shoulders and are sexy by my way of thinking.
Before I sign off, Happy Mummies Day to anyone who nurtures children or pets. Hope its a lovely day for you all.

I Got Diva And I Ain't Afraid To Show It.
Darlings! This hair alone deserves a few pictures for this post. I love, no, I ADORE it. Without doubt, it is my favorite hair I own and that's saying a lot given I have #### in my inventory. No I can't be bothered to count plus it will shock me and I might turn grey. It is called 'Sayaka3' from Diva.
My look today evolved from purchasing the 'Victoria Dot' top from Mirror's Enigma. I just love the soft, muted tones in cream, beige and a minty tone. I then found these smart shorts from Tee*fy called 'Aimiee Tailored Ribbon' shorts in Mint.
I threw on a cardigan from Tram just in case the weather turned chilly. Isn't it just the sweetest thing? Oh and look at the lovely hair clips that are color change.
I found the 'Rose Flower Mini Bucket' bag at Zenith. God I love that shop.
Now I need to mention these fabo shoes from Slink called 'Lulu' in Beige. These are an add on to the mesh rigged medium and natural feet only. The result my darlings is utter perfection. I'm wearing finger and toe polish from Flair found at The Deck. If you can't find what you want at Flair for your tootsies and fingers then you're a hard person to please.

I Call This 'My Brain Hurts' Meme - A Haiku For You
Ouch! Double Ouch! Whatever happened to 'Roses are red, violets are blue blah blah blah'? Mz Berry has opened up a a big, ol' can of Haiku and I embarrassingly admit, I had no clue of this form of expression prior to her Meme suggestions this week. So while I was jimmying open my newly received container of Rubber Nipples, I pondered the task and managed to come up with this pathetic little something.
The chalice empty
Fashion seasons fill the void
Couture be deployed
Of course with the arrival of my secret weapons, the rubber nipple, I thought I would create another Haiku.
Rubber nipples worn
Boys touch, fawn and scorn the fact
Not real so they're torn
Go Ahead, Brighten My Day.
Who wouldn't have a happy day in these gorgeous 'Sari' dresses from Sascha's Designs. The material texture and pattern are so stunning. Available in Purple, Pink and Aqua, they are as vibrant as a summers day. I REALLY love these dresses.
The necklace and earrings I'm wearing is called 'Flora' from Eclectica Jewelry. A fun, versatile piece, you can color change all of the details on the necklace/earrings and will be a valuable asset to your accessory collection.
I couldn't help but grab a fat pack of these Llena Sandals that is an add on to the Slink Womens' Natural mesh bare feet. The fat pack includes 9 colors so you're bound to find the right color for your outfit.
I decided to continue the fabulous colors to my hair and again purchased a fat pack of the 'CL' hair from Magika. With a color change hud, easy peasy dye job.
Purple: Bangles from Glow Studio
Pink: Bangles from Mandala
Aqua: Bangle from Zaara

Blow Me One Last Kiss
This is a very sophisticated dress in the most vibrant design from my new favorite label, Loovus Dzevavor. The designer, Vikeejeah Xevion, has a wonderful vision with her collection and her use of color and pattern are so exciting that I consider her one of the best. This full length dress called 'Deco Vestito' is a sharp mix of grey, black and gold. Stunning.
I am really loving the jewelery of Dita Tran's label, FuLo. These earrings are made for the dress and the mixture of bangles shown on the right of the picture are stunning.
Again I'm wearing Glam Affair's Amberly Petal Edition skin, this time shown in the Golden option.

I'm Not Up The Creek Without A KANOU!
Hello lovelies. Before I run off to hospital tomorrow, I just wanted to get in this post for KANOU. These sexy, barely there tops leave very little to the imagination but why make anyone wonder? I'm loud and proud of what mah momma gave me. Yeah I know, LL and Tuli may be my momma's but what the heck.
I've only shown three of the colors available of the 'Grace' top. There are six in total - blue, coral, green, purple, pink and grey. Me loves them KANOU and thank you for sending them.
I also wanted to point out this lovely bracelet from Pixel Box. Let me tell you they are having a sale and their items are super cheap. This is called the 'Thematic Zodiac Bracelet' and as you can see, I'm wearing my RL zodiac sign Scorpio. You could wear your zodiac sign on one band and that of your beloved on the other. You can change the top and bottom signs by touching the bracelet. Pixel Box have some fantastic items so go check it out.
The cute little bum bag holding my smokes and lipstick is from NCparis Designs. My goodness that shop is full to brimming of fabulous fashion.
Here's hoping I can continue blogging whilst in hospital but I'm not sure how the lappie will perform so if I can't, I'll be back soon. Don't miss me? Yes please miss me, just a little :-)

Dancing In Heels.
I hope everyone had a good day and that you've got some Lindens ready to spend at the Designer Showcase which features some great designers. You won't need too many of them darlings because nothing is over L$99 and some great group gifts to boot.
This dress, called K Collection Aisha, is one of the dresses put out by Liv Glam. Damn near blinded me with all that silver bling.
It reminds me of the lights you see when flying into a big city at night. Uber gorgeous don't you think?
I have to give an honorable mention to these amazing heels called 'Love Poison Nr.7' from Zero Cool Designz. I commented in Flickr that the stiletto's could be used as deadly weapons (thinking Single White Female) and the lovely designer, Ms Alyssalillian McMinnar, contacted me in-world and kindly sent me a pair. Alyssalillian is also the mastermind behind Gacha and in particular, the Gacha Addiction events featuring different themes each month. Visit HERE for more factual information but knowing how many people seem to love the Gacha concept, you should be very excited indeed for the next one.
These shoes remind me of a really funny story that I want to share with you. I have an Irish friend who used to study Irish dancing when she was younger living in the Emerald Isle. Having moved to Australia, she loved the lifestyle and didn't mind our cold beer either. Diving into the BBQ and beer culture, she decided to give us all a demo of her Irish dancing skills at one of my parties but didn't factor in her high heels and beer consumption. She started well but not long into it she keeled over and we all ran to her aid. She bloody well did a jump but when she brought one foot over the other, stabbed herself in the foot with her heel. I mean right through the foot. We were all so drunk we couldn't stifle our laughter but did manage to get help for her. Talk about River Dance...more like River of Beer Dance.
Oh and this fabulous glittery bag with silver metal handles is from Miel and is color change. Its so authentic looking as it kind of droops in the middle like bags do when handles make bags sit up at the sides (you know what I mean).
Now I've had the hiccups on and off for two days. Does anyone else get them and they keep coming back? Damn annoying and my chest hurts.

Drop Dead Gorgeous.
I found a new shop. Well new to me. The label is Drop and I found it during one of my jaunts around SL. I had to give it a go and grabbed this jacket and pants. Needless to say I was again thrilled with my purchase from a shop previously unknown to me. The unusual flannel jacket sports two tone tartan and the voluminous knit pants feature print leggings. I encourage you to to have a look at Drop. It's got some great stuff and the guys are catered for too.
I'm wearing another hair from Kik called Atmos which comes with this hair flower. Because the lovely people at Kik made the flower modifiable, I changed the color to match the hue of the jacket. I found this smart handbag and shoes at The Secret Store.
Some earrings from Glow Studio finish it off and I'm done. I think I might go out for lunch.

I Got Zaara'fied.
I walked into Zaara with paper money in my purse. I walked out with a few coins. But who can blame me with all that fabulous fashion lining the walls. Its a wonder I didn't walk out with an IOU.
I got Zaara'fied with this beautiful top and pants that feature amazing textures and worth ever cent. The top is called 'Zayba Cross Top' in Sand and comes with flowers that sit across the bias cut. I love the asymmetrical bottom and delicate creases and clever shading that creates dimension.
The lycra knee shorts are called 'Tara' shown in gold and come in a short or knee length version. Such a rich and extravagant pattern which is purely appreciated when worn. The little gold beaded bag is from Glow Studio called 'My Pride'.
I found these really smart Wedge Boots at a store I hadn't been to before, Marshmallows. I was really pleasantly surprised at their stock so be sure go have a look see. With a touch resize menu, they're easy as pie to fit. The color shown here is white.
If you will indulge me another picture, I found this hair at Kik. The name of it is 'Fine' in platinum. They have some sensational hair and I couldn't help but pick up a few styles. Loving the wind swept, wispy look they have achieved.
I've stocked up on some more clothes so am looking forward to styling them for future posts. Take care gorgeous ones. xx
You know I hate to admit this, but I DETEST doing my links to the stores. I absolutely want to give them credit and provide my readers with limo's at the touch of a click but gawd it gets tedious....ok whinge over.

Very Meme Monday - "My Three Wishes"
Another meme meets Monday from the wonderful mind of Strawberry Singh. Well this one I had to think long and hard about because I'm greedy and only three wishes was a stretch.
1. I wish for the fun days when I first joined.
This makes me a little sad because I've become somewhat of a recluse since my blog has become all consuming. I wish for the days when I was modeling all over the place working with amazing people who made SL such fun. When we would discover things together and laugh for ages or be in awe of something beautiful. At learning new skills and sharing them with my then wide circle of friends who would wax lyrical about you when really, it wasn't anything much that you did but that the importance of encouragement was the impetus of your friendships. When all you could hear was the 'ding' of IM's and you couldn't keep up with the conversations. The days when something fantastic was released and the grapevine was humming with friends letting you know and going shopping together oooo'ing and ahhh'ing all over the grid. It was pure fun and something that could only occur in a certain time because everything was new and you were establishing your identity in SL. In a way, it felt like growing up again and you can only do that once in SL. I'm probably making no sense because perhaps its only me who feels like this. My fondest memories of the early days was enlisting all different photographers to take pics of me for my portfolio and styling a gazillion looks hoping they would think I was remarkably different and waiting for them to arrive to share with friends. I still have the folders of my modeling friends where we would share our newest pics and support each other when we auditioned or made the cut. Seems sort of silly now, but back then, it was fabulous.
2. I wish I had Chalice's body/bodies and wardrobe.
In RL I do really love fashion. I do have a pretty liberal wardrobe of clothing, shoes, accessories and jewelery but if I had Chalice's body, my god I'd be unstoppable. I'd probably dress and re-dress ten times a day and never have my head out of my closet, only to go out showing off. Then again, she is way over six feet tall with a clothes horse figure so its pretty unattainable in reality.
3. I wish that the crotch area didn't distort clothing.
I don't have an answer for why this is but it seems the minute you open your legs to any degree, the texture distorts and looks horrible. Its the one area I need to fix up in Photoshop the most. It doesn't happen with mesh items so much though. Also on this subject, it would be great if one had the ability to lower the alpha layer with mesh clothing to ensure the legs don't poke out the dress. Is this even possible?
Oh and one of my pics was chosen to to make up the header of BloggingSL. What a thrill and thank you so much for picking it Alianna. Such a lovely surprise to wake up to.
Outfit is from Kanou.
