Face Paint News...

You may have noticed that Face Paint looked very different these last few days. That's because change is coming, and it's going to be terrific!

On Friday, August 3rd, Face Paint reopens with an entirely new look, new make-up like the one pictured above (from the new Marie series, Marie Smoke), and so much more.

Liv-Glam Secret Wednesday Deals - Wow!

At rare times, I find myself speechless. I've been watching the mesh products develop in our Second Life with interest and at times amazement. About 90% of Liv-Glam's products have at least a portion of the outfit made of mesh and each new item looks more stunning and more refined than the last.

This week, that's true for the two offerings for Secret Wednesday. The gowns are each very elegant and formal. The first has dark tones which will work well as summer wanes and you begin looking for the right combinations for fall as well yet has the spaghetti strap and slimming sleek long look that's fantastic for those still long summer evenings.

The second definitely has an autumnal flair. The gown itself again hugs to every curve perfectly as only mesh can do, with texture crafted so well you know someone with great skill worked very hard on it. Then flexible skirts of sweeping silk flutter at your feet and a beautiful fur jacket offers comfort to ward of that evening chill as you step out to your favorite club or visit with friends at an end of summer party.

Fierce Designs - Nurse and Latex!

Each designer in SL finds their own niche and the creator of Fierce Designs definitely has a great sense of style, with an imagination for fun and creativity!

This seductive latex set comes in four colors (white not shown). Each delicious color shines as latex should. It inspires wicked thoughts, fun and an afternoon of pure role-play. If you enjoy costumes for all sorts of entertainment, Fierce Designs might have just the look for you. In the words of the three Animaniacs, "Helloooooo Nurse."

Celestina's Supports Hope for Emilia

Celestina contributed two fantastic gowns to the Hope for Emilia event.

This gold one stole my heart. There was also a black silk that flowed just as smoothly and makes you feel like royalty. Whether you get the gold glamorous look or the dramatic dark black, your support for Hope for Emilia will be appreciated and echoed around the globe.

SAS Casual Pants Set of 4 - Merel

Though Sascha's known grid wide for her fantastic dresses, she also constructs some of the most elegant simple pant and top sets I've seen in SL.

This set comes with four color tops and four pants. I've chosen purple and pink because they go so well with the blonde hair. On the left, the full outfit, then the right shows the two colors zoomed in for details. You'll see that the pants are speckled, not a solid color and the tops show defined lines and curves. I adore Sascha's casual designs!

Miss Darcy Supports Hope for Emilia

So many mesh pieces look the same from designer to designer. I know this is because the whole of mesh is new and people are experiencing a learning curve. The same was true when flexible prims came out and other changes that have animated our SL-life.

Every now and then, someone surprises me with a fresh look to the mesh, and in this case, the long sleek gowns from Miss Darcy's submission to the Hope for Emilia project did just that. These gowns are elegant, long lines that draw the eye, smooth silky texture, and patterning that just oozes sophistication and beauty. I found one of my new most favorite dresses in the rose colored option.

One Hundred Supports Hope for Emilia

One Hundred went all out with their contribution to Hope for Emilia. A special Roman toga was offered, several colorful and unique corsets were as well, and then there was this pretty little mini-dress.

A bright bit of jewelry from Artistry by ~E~ and a pair of iridescent shoes from Juicy accented the dress and I have to say my latest 'do' by [elikatira] just makes me smile. The combination of all the elements with the pink dress that makes me feel like a priceless pink diamond was another great deal from the Hope for Emilia campaign.

Desir Supports Hope for Emilia

This breathtaking gown comes from Desir and helps support the Hope for Emilia campaign still in progress in SL.

Lots of layers of silky material sways around the hips and ankles, moving with every swishing step. The upper body also has a flutter of material, whispering its own sweet secrets. This elegant gown adds vibrance to any inventory and will make you the center of attention at your favorite summer place to dance.

New from Liv Glam 7.23.2012

Not one but 3 new releases came out on the 23rd, amidst the flurry of pretty things for Hope for Emilia and specials and sales, I had worked with each of the three designs and found myself adoring the variations, the diversity and as always, the technical detail in texturing!

Dressed to play or party, this little number flows freely wherever your world takes you in your Second Life. Multiple colors are available with the HUD and textures may be updated in the future giving you a great deal of options in one flattering new look.

This romper might be my most favorite of all releases recently. I'm the tomboy sort of gal, to this day even though I'm actually a tomboy dinosaur. ~grins~ I could see wearing this romper to a picnic, a soccer match or a best friend's backyard bar-be-que. Enjoy romping!

Grace Kelly returns with new textures and updates. This pencil slim dress hugs tightly and though it's a tiny lil mini, it's decent enough to tantalize yet be worn almost anywhere.


Whatever your taste, you can live glamorously with Liv-Glam's latest releases!

Powerful Release from Angel Dessous

It's easy to get excited on Wednesday if you're an Angel Dessous fan. Each week without fail, the item tucked away in the secret black box blows my mind.

This blood red and black gown had elements of a mystical quality. I could see myself holding a wand and casting a dark spell. The glamorous shoulder decor added to the intense power this gown exudes. I can't wait to see what comes next in that little black box. Maybe a book of spells to go with my sorceress look? 

Leezu's Contribution to Hope for Emilia

Sassy sweet and tantalizing...Heather Hotpants Mesh...

These purdy lil hot pants in rouge will fit with almost any top. I paired with a simple tank and a chunky necklace but it would work with almost any season and color scheme.

{PP} Maria - Hope for Emilia

This simple yet elegant sun dress has been structured and textured so well and it's mesh!

Pampered Puss makes it look 'easy' to create such a design and fit it to mesh. The brilliant little stars that decorate the silky slimming material almost twinkle if you look long enough, and people will be looking at you in this pretty addition to your wardrobe.

Secret Wednesday at Liv-Glam (shhh)

This beautiful gown radiates beauty!

Paired with the lovely summer flower - the Hibiscus - seen at the wrist and tucked into the hair, you will exude that summer sweet elegance in a brilliant tone of fuschia that captivates and allures. And on Secret Wednesday, you know you'll find a steal of a deal at Liv-Glam.

You will also find this fun flirty mesh set with a half top and mini-skirt on sale at Liv-Glam for Secret Wednesday.

A bevy of beautiful designs comes to you from blah:BLAH:blah.

First, a selection of very short... short...
SHORT... little dresses are available. The Camo series reminds me of the ever popular military prints. Cupcakes anyone? The cute little blue dress will make you crave cupcakes or something else super sweet! And oh how short is that gold dress? Sexy sultry swimsuits are also sold at blah:BLAH:blah and this red with skulls suit shows so much skin. ooo la la...

Another style swimsuit displays the sleek lines of a female in a single piece with lots of peek-a-boo holes to seduce your favorite someone. Chaps, leather and smolderingly hawt lingerie brings out the cowgirl in you. How small can a mini-skirt get and still be called a skirt? Friends of mine might call this set of skirts a glorified belt. It's not much wider, is it? And if you're looking for something simple and casual, you can pick up a selection of printed tees designed with an extra long hem.

Carrie's Lingerie - Jasmine and Natalie

One of my favorite indulgences continues to be Carrie's Lingerie. After working for Carrie's for 6 months, I became addicted to the NEW styles that come from Carrie's and support her continued effort to create new and better lingerie.

Jasmine was released last week with options on many layers that allow for the sexy lingerie to cover more or reveal more skin. The corset comes separately in this set so the choice is mine, to wear it with the corset as seen above or without, and then it looks more like a very sexy bra and panty set.

This week, I hurried back to the store as yet another alluring release called to me. Coral might be one of my most favorite colors in Second Life, shades of peach and orange, and Carrie plays with color beautifully. Natalie has a luxurious silk look, and can be worn with the very short nighty or be worn without.

Liv-Glam New Release: Valencia Couture Outfit

This week, Liv-Glam produced a plethora of pretty items! Some of those new releases are only available at the Hope for Emilia charity fund raiser, so you're encouraged to go and participate.

The Valencia Couture outfit echoes elegance from head to toe. Each color option presents clean crisp lines that go well with the slimming corset top and equally slimming pencil skirt.

Amethyst may be found at the Hope for Emilia event. The other five colors, Amber, Garnet, Emerald, Sapphire and Pearl are available at Liv-Glam. These elegant choices are a diversion from the mesh that has been a staple so far for the Liv-Glam fashion palette, and a gorgeous diversion it is.

sYs: Gift from Hair Fair

My SL budget lives on a wing and a prayer most weeks. Yet I love participating in all events related to the fashion world in every way possible.

When the sim let me in, I visited the Hair Fair. I'm a hair ADDICT. I loved visiting the countless vendors, seeing new, glam, wild, calm, mesh and so much more. I was surprised, however, to find a few little treats along my path that were not all hair. The mesh top shown above came from sYs and this little top impressed me. It's bright, colorful, fun and free as I always say... is good!

Liv-Glam Supports Hope for Emilia

This week, a number of great designers collaborate together to raise money for the Hope for Emilia charity. The funds raised will directly go to the families in need following devastating earthquakes in Italy.

Liv-Glam put together four different parcels for purchase to add their contribution. Two mesh sets with top and pants are options. One pencil skirt with stole, and a parcel with a bronze skin and make-up are also options. Please lend your support and visit the Hope for Emilia sim.

UEMA Presents Morea Designs: A Boat Load of Beauty

Long ago, the Morea set sail in Second Life and tonight, the ship anchored in the Villa del Morea, its home town to celebrate 5 terrific years!

Morea Decosta, owner and creator of Morea Designs, makes clothing for all occasions and this evening's fashion show displayed the wide range very well.

Suzy Wise represented Morea Designs. Suzy works as Morea's manager.

Violetcrush Bravin and UEMA hosted the event. Violet and her team of talented  personnel put together a world class experience for Morea, the models, and the many guests present. The COO of UEMA, Issy Flatley, built the set and acted as Show Director as well.

Leezah Kaddour spoke as MC for the evening. Poised and prepared, she represented UEMA and Morea very well.

Fun frocks highlighted the evening with lots of fluttery material caught up by the sea breeze. Many different lengths of silky swatches swathed the women who modeled these looks.

Whether you shop for casual or chic, evening or business, you'll find something suitable to wear at Morea Designs.

Some of the gowns looked as if they were lighter than air, and many summer hues painted a rainbow of color on the boardwalk as the various models disembarked the good ship Morea.

Other pieces had rich deep hues with matching jewelry that glittered, perfect for the fanciest of evenings out on the town. These women were ready for a ball or a night at the opera in the finest Morea has to offer.

As the last of the models worked their way towards the audience, gasps were heard and rousing applause. The wedding gowns were each unique and very different examples of the perfect wedding look.

So many attended the soiree. At one point, there were over 60 present to enjoy the work UEMA and Morea Designs collaborated to present. 

All good things come to an end... or do they? The ship Morea sailed back into the sea of Second Life, into the next chapter of their story. Five years behind them, and so much ahead... Ahoy!
