A Pose Makes It Perfect -- Featuring Odelitte from Four Seasons Market, [LG]Boutique, Sundaara and .:JUMO:. from .PENUMBRA. Fashion Week and **NEW** Dark Horse Style

What a difference poses make, eh? I find myself truly blessed by the relationship turned friendship turned family that I've found myself in with October, aka Keisha. Because she's done so many photos for different people, models, non-models, couples, friends, she's got a trillion zillion poses on her work station. I go gah-gah for her poses and play; and I could take a hundred photos before I moved on to something new.

In this styling today, I pulled in pieces again, yayayaya grateful for the diversity in designs that allow me the puzzle time part of this process. I took this Petra Jacket from Sundaara Designs and sold at .PENUMBRA. Fashion Week and began to build the look. The skirt comes from a design by [LG]Boutique, sold this month at Designer Showcase - which recently relocated so here's a new link - http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Flawless/179/59/28, called Hang With Me. Mixing it up with bold colors, I pulled on a new pair of boots from Odelitte Suede Boots Red that you can purchase at Four Seasons Market then promptly added a pair of tintable socks from N-Core to add those ever necessary Autumn layers. The socks tinted to a bold purple complimented my final new accessory, the necklace from .:JUMO:. called Fascination in Purple.

And last but never least, I took a friend's suggestion, and went over to a brand new store called Dark Horse Style and snagged a whole array of new nail appliers. I've learned that just like shoes and hair, one can never have too many nails. I wouldn't want you or me to get bored with the same old same old! This design is called Curved Dark. Many different little painted pictures adorn an array of nails, including some fun Halloween related autumn sets. I'm not sure how long her nails will be 50L but that's her opening week special and that means your Lindens s-t-r-e-t-c-h better.

Warm and Cozy -- Featuring E C R U at Designer Showcase, City Chic at DEbRA, B!asta, Baubles! by Phe, and X-Sight from the Promenade, NiNight Creations from Four Seasons Market, and ~ghee

Sometimes it's a challenge to mix and match items. After recently mentioning PLEASE create items that come in tops, bottoms, pants or skirts, and other layers, the fates heard me, or you did and yay! Layers. So much of the fashion friendly for 2014 Autumn/Winter has layers, for miles. Now all of us don't live in NYC, but I remember when ladies in Jacksonville FLORIDA (you know, where the sun shines almost as much as California), women wore UGG boots. Ugh. But fashion is fashion, yes?

I pieced this first style together with items from Events, head to toe! At the Promenade, I found a box of B!asta Treasures that included the necklace and earrings seen here. Also at the Promenade, I found a box of rings from Baubles! by Phe and slid the Amber one onto my finger. Way up high, at the event horizon from which the DEbRA fundraiser will come together, I found this Autumn top and skirt from City Chic. I pulled the patterned skirt then looked around for more. The hooded sweater looked cozy though it's still in the 80s here in the midlands of SC. Way too soon to wear, but fun to play barbie with it, a design from Ninight Creations that you'll find at Four Seasons Market.

X-Sight has a wide array of colors at the Promenade. I'll use them for several blogs so you can see the different hues. And after asking around for help, Warm Clarity from ~ghee hooked me up with some multi-colored tights. It's hard to believe how pop culture melded with runway designers into the Hipster layers with loads and loads of tights, but few designers have them in SL, and even fewer have the ones that would be SLink compatible. Perhaps by the end of 2014, there will be more. Thank you Warm!
