Silver Streak

I don't usually use On Your Toes to promote my own releases for DCNY, but I am making an exception, and I hope you won't judge me too harshly for breaking my own rules. The dress in question is an exclusive release for 'The 100 Block', a dip dyed silk dress with a metallic collar, and it is available at this event at 50% off the typical release price for the duration of the event. I hope you will love it as much as I do!

 

Now on to the really great stuff; GLAM Affair has some impressive new releases at the current round of Collabor88, wonderfully priced and so beautiful, are the Skins and Earrings. GLAM Affair is also getting on board with skin appliers to match the Slink Enhancement series of rigged mesh hands and feet, I am wearing the perfectly matched feet, complete with more amazing nail art from Flair and some great new shoes from Belgravia.

The shoes have me very excited, more than usual, why? you may ask, simple, these are the first footless shoes I have purchased for my Slink medium rigged mesh feet, that are not made by Slink. That clever Siddean Munro at Slink has made the genius move of facilitating the creation of footwear to fit the Slink feet, like these great new shoes by Belgravia, they are sold expressly to be worn with the Slink feet, now perfectly matched to my skin. You can now dress your avatar like you would dress yourself, slip the shoes on and away you go! I can't wait to see which other designers will get on board with designing footwear for this clever system.

Ain't She Sweet

Opening today is 'The 100 Block' an exciting new event from Depraved Nation. Being a contributing designer to this event has its perks, one of which is being able to get a sneak peek at what other designers are doing, and I am eager to share one of my favorites with you.

 

If you are not familiar with Sassy!, you are missing a great store, I am an admirer of the quality of the clothing, not only is it consistent, but it also tends to walk the line very well between sexy and skimpy, often surprising me with more classy pieces that remain, yes,  sexy! The jacket and skirt are a great example of this, and are an exclusive release from Sassy! at 'The 100 Block'.

 

Because I can't resist great accessories I have pulled together some great ones here; ISON is responsible for the great bag and gold watch, Kumaki is responsible for the great sunglasses (worn in my hair) another '100 Block' Exclusive release to watch for, and the shoes are another great color change style from Redgrave. All together today's look is short and sweet, and ready to do even more shopping at the great events around SL! (complete style details below.)

Just The Essentials

Essentially speaking, there are a few things you just need to have to make a great wardrobe, or in SL, that great go-to outfit that will work for almost any occasion. Case in point, this relaxed and easy collection of essential items that you wouldn't really think work together, but they do!

Neutral colors, black basics and modern accessories, and some great new shoes too, that is what my look is comprised of today. The Black Blazer, newly released by The Secret Store for FaMESHed, is a great way to add versatility to your outfit, wearing it over a great neutral colored dress by Maitreya, it is a easy way to change up a day look for a more nightlife ready style, just by removing the Blazer.

  

These great sunglasses by Kumaki, are a sneak peek at an exclusive new release for 'The 100 Block' Event, scheduled to open on May 10th, everyone needs their sunglasses, and these come with multiple color options, I just love them. Also from the land of color change awesomeness are the latest footwear released by Redgrave, I am completely in love with all of their most recent shoes, but these may just be my favorite! A great carry all bag from Belgravia, sleek new LeLutka Hair, and some very cool accessories by Maxi Gossamer, add even more great essentials to this outfit. (Shopping information below.)
