Pretty Petunia!

I had never heard of Petunia until I participated in the Fashion Freaks Hunt, and totally fell in love with the cute swim wear, pants, and other adorable pieces at that quaint little store..even the scenery there was beautiful! That's why even though I don't really enjoy hunts that much, but I do recognize that these hunts are instrumental in helping me discover gems that I might otherwise have overlooked, so kudos to the organizers of hunts! I was also very pleasantly surprised when Nici Sewell of Immerschoen and niciARTLINE sent me a personalized tattoo with my dear Erwin's name on it! It meant sooooooo much to me and I've been wearing that tattoo ever since!

So In Lurve!

It was more than a year ago that I met Lurve designer Danielle Idigo when I was helping a friend set up a mall.

Today, Danielle is still as friendly and warm as ever and she continues to make these amazing gowns as well as über sexy mini dresses and adorable matching jewellery!

Beachin'

I have always loved the beach...in fact, my very first 'home' in SL was um...a nude beach! *hee* And believe it or not, it was there that I made the most unlikely but enduring friendships! My choice of location for this post, however, was not my favourite nude beach, but still it was a lovely quiet spot that provided some timely respite...

Back in Time

Today I decided to go Steampunk, well...almost, thanks to the notice I got from Rag Dollz that got me all curious, and I found myself quite attracted to the fashion of that era! I even read up a little on Steampunk, its origins and the difference between just pure Victorian fashion and Steampunk! Anyway, I found so many freebies at Rag Dollz--there are free boots, gowns, even a rug, a tub and much more!

Here I am outside the Sheriff's office trying to look busy



This sure is a huge change from my usual minis and plunging necklines!



Breathtaking view of the beautiful sim...

Still In Love With ElaCor!

It's been awhile since I last wrote about ElaCor (which has been one of my favourites from the time I came to SL till now) what with the opening of many new stores and distractions at every turn. In fact, I was so crazy about that brand that I blogged about it extensively (see posts under: Some ElaCor Favourites Part1, Part 2, Part 3, Conclusion and Two Lovely Gowns--told you it was extensive)! And today that love affair continues--ElaCor designer Emanuela Gaffer still has that magic touch and that keen attention to minute details (as evident in her accessories and shoes) that made me fall in love with her designs in the first place! On top of her lovely casuals at the same affordable prices, now she also has a new line of gorgeous gowns aptly named Elegance, with thoughtful pretty additions to make complete sets (just my kind of designer)!!

Here are the Elegance gowns (accessories and shoes included)...







ElaCor Viola (I just lurrve the pretty jewels at the back of the neck, the plunging neckline *gulp* and the cute little bows behind the shoes)









ElaCor Pessy (the big bow behind and the dangling little black hearts on the pearls are such lovely surprises)







ElaCor Camilla (note the sexy semi-transparent bodice)

...and the latest casuals (Hairband not included, all other accessories and shoes included):-





ElaCor Prue Pacco (lurrve that impossibly low back)!!







ElaCor Katy Rosso (includes two skirt options--just lurrve the animal prints rawrrr)

Thank you Emanuela and Ketlin! MUACHH!!
