"Here Comes the Sun" with 5th&Oxford

5th&Oxford has released a new spring outfit "Jori". It's flawless beautiful design made me feel as if I was taking a walk thru a garden on a spring day. I love that 5th&Oxford's new release has the ability to be mixed and matched. (I love love love when designers choose to give this option.) The cardigan, blouse and Skirt come in 8 spring colors. Daffodil, Turquoise, Twig, Violet, Bone, Coral, Egg Blue and Rose. These colors highlight the season and make you feel as if the sun and warm weather are quickly approaching.
To show the ease of the ability to mix and match these designs I opted to pull together two looks using Jori blouse (Pic1) and Jori Skirt (Pic2).

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right-Here Comes the Sun, -The Beatles

"Light Up My Room" with The Loft













The main reason I shop from The Loft can be summed up in one word...QUALITY.  The loft has never failed to meet my expectations, but rather with every new release they have managed to exceed it; making most furniture shops a pain and disappointment to visit. I've seen The Loft grow in style and content design during my time in SL. The latest release being no exception, as someone that has been a fan of the loft for quite some time I must tell you these designs contain a feature that I have been awaiting for quite some time now. I was extremely excited to see The Loft's introduction of texture customization in its prim furniture. These low prim designs, are not only beautiful in their simplicity, but give you freedom and greater options in choosing your decor. The Maxwell Furniture has been designed in mind to accompany the Linden's Meadowbrook style homes, a part of the premium membership advantages. With only 117 prims, SL Linden Homes are quite the challenge to decorate.















When SL released Linden Homes I quickly signed up for my space. Determined to make a space that was unique and reflective of me. I quickly found the Meadowbrook styles calling my name. Linden Labs created themed home areas, neighborhoods, where SLers can mingle and live. I really enjoy my Linden home the view is great, (I'm a sucker for windows). No ugly signs, strip clubs or builds; out of all of my three mainland parcels it's the most serene and happy. When decorating my LL Home I tried to incorporate a modern decor in order to maintain the integrity of the home's design. Black and White became the central colors with floral motifs appearing as reminder of the spring season.














 Squirrels roaming, leaves falling and neighbors on all sides the Linden Lab home has great potential to provide future population growth within the SL community. LL can use these homes as a tool for future growth and advancement by creating not just a visually stunning location, but one that fosters friendship. Which can hopefully lead to an emotionally attachment to the SL community, retaining residents and enticing new one to join thru word of mouth.

"Right As Rain" in L'Abel
















The newest release from L'Abel are one word....Gorgeous. Classic, timeless and ohhh so chic L'Abel is a must stop shopping location for ladies with discerning taste. Known for her wonderful vintage styles, Neferia Abel, of Ivalde has released couture style fashions under her L'abel these fashions are wonderul for ladies that want to incorporate a little bit of glam into thier sl lives.

With spring quickly approaching the "Mari grey cardigan" is perfect for layering over short cute lacy tops. I paired this tasty treat with jeans for a more relaxed and comfortable feel. Mari, knitted top is versatile and allows your style to shine when matching. The flexi flowing prim waist can be removed to reveal a short cropped jacket. Which when paired with a skirt and other accessories can create a posh, polished and refined look.





















 The "Anneli black dress", is this seasons answer to the LBD. I instantaneous fell in love with the lace and trim along the bottom and decolletage of the dress. The texturing is beautiful, if you look closely you can see the detial work that Nef placed in her design. It's truly something to be admired. The flower on the waist embellish the dress and draws the eye across the silhouette and curves created by the sculpti bottom. L'Abel has proven to have beautifully crafted items and is a premier choice in my spring attire. These new items to be released on Saturday March 13, 2010.

Who wants to be right as rain
It's better
When something is wrong
You get excitement in your bones
And everything you do's a game

Detective

 
Today's LOTD is all about the ladies of mystery, Velma and Nancy Drew, Like "Murder she wrote", these great detectives were the inspiration when pulling this look together, vintage, modest and slightly nerdy it says "Jinkies, a mystery is afoot." (Credits at the bottom)
 
A good detective knows that makeup can become a great tool for sleuthing. A compact is wonderful for looking around corners and signaling for help using Morris code and the sun. Lipstick can be used in a pinch to leave messages on windows, and mark spots of where evidence is located.
Always carry a sketch book, note book or scrap paper. You never know when you might have sketch a suspect, write down a license plate or other valuable information.
and of course no detective should ever be without a flashlight. Perfect to see those things that go bump in the night. 

The Look:Super Sleuth
Skin-LAQ Tasha
Hair-Fri-Eloise
Glasses-Artilleri-Gladys Glasses
Dress-Ivalde-Mette (adventgift 18)
Shoes-Truth-Newton Wedge-Mocha

Peek in, sneak about
I'm gonna snoop and call you out
I've caught you, you're hands are red
Now I'm your broken hearted detective-No Doubt- Detective

"Thunderstruck"-My Roller girl look






















Rolling ReBellina, that's what they call me. See I'm just a normal girl by day and by night well....that's when The Roller girl comes out. No one would suspect me to be ReBellina, after all I don't really fit the stereotype,but after lacing up my skates and applying my black liner (you can never wear too much) the speed demon in me emergence and it seems I'm looking for a fight.






















A punch here a shove there it makes no difference when out in that rink. If you're in my way, watch out! I'm in it for the points, blood and to most importantly to win! My teammates are fierce, strong, independent women who refuse to take crap from anyone. We wear our cuts, Bruises and lipstick smears with pride, after all us roller girls are tough as nails and have the battle scares to prove it.

You've been - thunderstruck!
Rode down the highway
Broke the limit, we hit the ton
Went through to Texas, yeah Texas
And we had some fun
We met some girls,
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules, played all the fools
Yeah, yeah, they, they, they blew our minds
And I was shakin' at the knees
Could I come again please.
Yeah the ladies were too kind
You've been - thunderstruck, thunderstruck- AC/DC

"Love Song"

















It's Valentine's day which means time for some Red Lingerie. There have been so many releases and group gifts in the Lingerie dept it was tough to decide which to blog about, but since I have been finding any little excuse to wear this Whippet&Buck 50l goodie I decided it was totally blog worthy. Normally in the lingerie dept I prefer things with stockings that are lacy, but W&B "Frilly Little Set", is casual and totally makes me feel like a Donna. I love that this lingerie is so cute, hand drawn and that the designer took the time to incorporate details; like stitching, seems and bows. The red bra is perfectly shaped across my bust line. While the Panties provide enough coverage across my derriere, but still leave a peek that's intriguing. (Sigh, if only in RL it were this easy.) Over all it's perfect for that rainy night cuddling session.

The Look-Valentine Night
Hair-AD-Lykke- Brunette
Skin-L.Fauna- Berry
Lingerie-WB-Frilly Little Set
Necklace-Little Hearts Pendant

however far away
i will always love you
however long i stay
i will always love you
whatever words i say
i will always love you- Love Song- The Cure

"Is this Love" with Ozimals?
















The bunny fever that is Ozimals has finally hit the Semyorka/Palliard home. Frankie and I are proud parents of "Bridget" and "Jones" (Sleeping below) This bunny obcession started with our giant HMPD bunny. (I did a post on HMPD last year).

 So lets talk a bit about Ozimals Bunnies: They are pets in SL that you can breed. Now you might be familiar with the chickens pets people had but these are a bit different because they are cute pets which are unable to be harmed or killed. (sorry I didn't think the chickens were cute) Ozimals bunnies carry traits that can be passed down thru the bunny generations which make breeding them fun and kinda like a mad science experiment. Eye color, fur color, ear type can all be determined by the bunny parents. Ozimals are 11 prims, which really is affordable for pets in SL. (My Zooby dog is over 30, the monkey 70).

With bunny nesting in mind we went on a search this weekend for bunny related items. We wanted to create a home for our pets so they could have a bit of land for themselves. In the backyard of our home Frankie went to work and assembled a sturdy fence built from Glityerati's Fence (group gift) and invisible prims to keep our little babies inside their enclosure. SLDD had a great deal on Sat. from Second Spaces, Uncle Hank's Potting Shed, which became the perfect place to set up as a bunny hutch. We will continue to grow our little bunny garden and wait for new babies to arrive. Oh and if you ever wondered if bunnies dream, the answer is yes. while I was taking these photos Bridget and Jones had "dream bubbles" of Carrots, Bunny Love and sunshine days.

I wanna love you and treat you right;
I wanna love you every day and every night:
We'll be together with a roof right over our heads;
We'll share the shelter of my single bed

We'll share the same room, yeah! - for Jah provide the bread.
Is this love - is this love - is this love -
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
