PINK & CHOCOLATE

I remember when pink coupled with chocolate brown became all the rage.  It burst into fashion, home interior, and cosmetics in a huge way.  I also remember people stating that it was a trend that would not last.  How wrong they were.  It seems that every season a designer presents us with this delicious combination of colors and being such a sucker for pink I am completely delighted.  As if to prove my point Immerse released the EiiKiiS dress, a great go to dress which can cross the lines of casual to business easily.  The sleeve details and slimming skirt are absolutely fabulous!

 
 
 
 
 
I am wearing the new Jolie makeup by Miamai which is part of a larger cosmetic release from Miamai but I just love the delicate hand Monica used on the Jolie pack.   With soft shimmering colors  these eye shadows are a must have for your spring styling needs!
 
 
 

Rich woods and  beautiful fabrics come together to enhance the stylish lines of the Immerse - Otukan set.  This oriental inspired furniture is a feast for the eyes and would complement almost any room though personally I think it would make an excellent set for a enclosed porch.  I can picture having a wonderful cup of tea with a good friend talking over the days adventures.  I love how carefully Lilly selected the fabrics and the textures of the vases to create a harmony but the stools and screen are copy and modifiable so you can change out the texture if you are so inclined. 
 Otukan ~ An earth-spirit. Occasionally known as Otukan, Natigai, Natigai or Olukan.

MISSISSIPPI DELTA

I grew up in Montana but I have special memories of my grandmothers house in Mississippi.  It is a breath taking experience to suddenly find yourself surrounded by your great grandfather, grandmother, thirteen aunts and uncles plus their spouses and all of their children!  OH MY!  I will always remember my great grandfather in his powder blue suits, no matter how hot or humid he still wore that suit and walked as though nothing could ever touch him.  He was a true southern gentleman and had kind eyes and cotton wispy white hair.  I am taller then any of my other siblings and felt that something was wrong with me, now mind you I am also taller then my brothers but my mother would say I got her grandfathers genes and just be happy.  Standing next to him and feeling short and little as a child was so refreshing.  When I look in the mirror I see he eyes looking back at me and he blessed me that first summer with an ability to stand tall and accept that God has given me the height I have so that I can see the beauty most miss.  The ability to look over things most get hung up on and feel the gentle breeze on my face in a crowd. 

When I found the Mississippi Delta Blues sims in SL suddenly I was back in my childhood and the sights, smells, and joys of my summers in Mississippi came back to me.  There will never be a sunset as amazing as that first one seen with my family on my grandmothers porch or the last one seen from a Greyhound bus as we went back to Montana for the last time.  I walked around the sims just taking in the sights and found a blues club in the middle of a cotton field on the edge of an old southern town. I also found a Museum, train station, rentals, and shops.  Plus points of interest signs that explain major events, place, and people in the Blues.

"The Delta is strongly associated the blues. Go back in time to the 1940's,  ride the Steam train, travel down the Mississippi River on a boat or raft, listen to live blues music on the Cottonfield stage, explore the Main street and the Blues Museum Information Center with direct links to RL Blues sites with information regarding concerts, festivals, the Blues Commission and more.  Most importantly...come and relax;  enjoy yourself listen to the music and dance with friends!"~ From the Mississippi Delta Group

I could not find any information about DJ schedules or event times but I will be back to explore more and hopefully listen to some amazing Blues.

 



I am wearing the Shorty Sweater from sexZ, her contribution to this months {The Boobie Planet}.  This event only last until March 14th and usually has some wonderful deals for us Tango Ladies.  The pants are from Blueberry and I fell in love with them the moment I saw them!  The cute little cut out on the sides is very original and I love how the mesh hugged my shape.

IMMERSE GETS TWISTED

Immerse joins the Twisted Hunt this month and Lilly put in a special twist of her own.  She put two women's items and one male item in the prize prim!  First is this great top named Tracy, immediately I loved how it showed a little shoulder and flared at my hips just slightly.  Second is a nice sweater dress named Barbie City.  I just think the fit is fantastic and the belt snuggled on my hips added just the right touch.  Finally we have the men's item the Carl Sweater in black stripe! The Twisted Hunt starts March 1st and goes till March 31st.  For all the information go to the website!   http://twistedhunt.com/  Happy Hunting!

CROSSED PATHS

I love to blog my friends, and most of the items I write about comes from them.  Recently two of my friends each started on new paths as designers only to find their roads cross the others. 

I introduced you to Quandary on the 14th of February.  The designer, Mireille Benoir is very creative and her ability has always impressed me.  She has a rich history in building and designing rp clothing in SL but decided to take some time to focus on her RL.  After a short hiatus she returned and announced she was going to design mesh hair.  Those of us who love Mir  supported her fully in this venture and waited to see what she would dream up.  Mir having had to endure my rants about blondes and Zar's rants on reds made a point of making sure her hair textures where stunning without any hints of off coloring.  I will forever adore her Prism color which of course is the color in the pictures below.  Today she is releasing the full version of her special Vday release Scarlet and you can find it at the front door of Epicosity along with the full version of her first male hair Rhett.


 
 
 
Recently Lilly Juno re branded her furniture store Prism Furniture transforming it into Immerse and took her first steps into mesh clothing.  I love Lilly and am sort of nuts about her furniture.  I have to admit I own one of her rocking chairs in every color she made because it brought back great memories of my Grandmothers parlor in Mississippi.  So when Lilly asked me if I would hop over and see what she was up to I was surprised to be dropped into a forest of mesh gowns in a myriad of colors.  Two things struck me right off, first her color choices and second her textures.  I was impressed and even more so days later when she passed me Cami to wear for a vendor shot for Quandary.   I wore the dress for 3 days straight and on afterthought I probably should apologize to all the pixel noses I offended.  I decided to blog the dress and thought it would be fun to show you some of Lilly's furniture creations at the same time.  I am posing with her new set called Love Letters.  One thing I noted right off is how she completes each build, creating scenes.  Glimpses into our daily lives complete with cups of steaming tea, toast, books left lying open.  This attention and eye for detail lets you immerse yourself in your SL.  Take the time to head down to Immerse and explore.  She has a couple of hunts going on at the moment and runs weekly specials that are always worth the time to search out.
 
 
 

 
Now occasionally you will see Quandary hair being used in Immerse vendor photos and Immerse clothing gracing the bodies of Quandary models.  Quandary will always provide a notecard helping you find the clothing, skin, eyes and all other finishing touches used for all promotional photos and vendor shots.
