StyleCard: Pixel Mode

A Sunday full of events to attend and all of them back-to-back, this calls for a simple and elegant look that is prim friendly, stylish and has a bit of personality. I started with the great black dress from Cachet, you may not be a system skirt fan, but I totally am, all it takes is a skirt version of your shape and you get a sleek sexy look. I left off the oversized pockets and went with a great contrasting belt from M * A * ii * K * I , then added a matching necklace. Then it was about finding a shoe with a colourful punch to finish the look.

I have so many great shoes, but none of my fuchsia or pink shoes really did it, and then I found these, I did not even realize that Tya Fallingbridge of Pixel Mode had sent these over, but the colour and style matched so perfectly. The Kavika Sheen are a great satiny looking platform pump with an option of a tied strap or none at all. Beautifully shaped and well textured, the Kavika Sheen have nice height and an attractive retro feel.

Take a look at these and more great footwear over at Pixel Mode.

The Stuff; Redgrave Skin, ::69:: Hair, Cachet Dress, M * A * ii * K * I Belt, Necklace by Ume Mode, Shoes by Pixel Mode.

StyleCard: TESLA

Yay! The Hyldas have arrived, and that sneaky Tesla Miles not only made good on her promise to give us some color in this great ankle boot, she's also give us 2 irresistable snake textures. TESLA offers nine variations in all, and really some of the most detailed ankle boots I've seen in a long time. Ankle boots are always a nice alternative for fall, they are great worn with skinny jeans, long tunics and even sweater dresses when you add some opaque tights. I decided to take Hylda out dancing so I added a silver beaded bustier (part of a Digit Darkes Socialite dress).

I love these chunky accessories from ICoN, and the funky short hair from MMS is a nice change from my usual length. My skinny black pants are courtesy of Cachet. Just a fun casual look with a bit of sparkle for a night of dancing in my new Hylda boots.

Look for Hylda at TESLA.

The stuff; Redgrave Skin, MMS Hair, Digit Darkes Top (part of dress), Cachet Pants, Accessories by ICoN.

StyleCard: SOREAL

Time to welcome a new face to 'On Your Toes'. Volcom Praga, KMADD Stylist, will be appearing from time to time to help us cover what's new and fashionable in men's footwear for our little blog. No time like the present, and SOREAL's much awaited follow up to the City Steps was a perfect opportunity to get this guy to show off some amazing footwear. The new Superstars are a great classic 3 stripe sneaker, with hyper realistic details from perforations to worn leather effects, and front to back perfect styling. (click image to enlarge.)

Volcom's casual look consists of some Aitui pants, a fun 'Rock is Dead' Tee from Gutta, Kari's Crate Digger shoulder bag and oversized sunglasses from VintageWear (VG Republic). Some great tattoos and new hair from MUISM help add up to a great look.

Look for the Superstars at SOREAL.

StyleCard: comme il faut & Styles of edo

A first offering from the talented Moire Georgette who confessed to me that the new Adriana Sandals, released under the comme il faut label, are the first she's felt good enough about to put on the shelves. The Adriana come in both light and dark variations, with some metal accent options available, they are an attractive elegant heel and perfect for the upcoming party season, yes we are thinking of the holidays already!

To really set an elegant tone I borrowed a dress from this weekend's Styles of edo Fashion Show being presented by InStyle Fashion Agency. This rich and satiny Hepburn Dress is irresistible in red with it's oversized back bow and super flowy skirt. Just a perfect party dress and one of many that will be showed off on Saturday (see Invitation below.) Hair is ETD Gwen, which is a great dressed up ponytail style and accessories are from Shiny Things, the Everyday Gems Garnet Set, one of the first accessory sets I ever bought for myself in SL, and I still wear it often.

All dressed up with someplace to go, visit comme il faut soon.

Someplace else to go this weekend...

StyleCard: Biddle Boots

Time for something fun, a cute look that is easy and casual with appealing ankle boots in bright shades. Enter Biddle Boots, Graciana posted a review on some not too long ago, and they are back and 'On My Toes' to add punch to the great new Day Dream outfit from Sweetest Goodbye. Simplicity is best paired with the vibrant color of the outfit. A star covered 'used' denim dress set with a wide sash and treble clef accent, work well against the solid red ankle boots called Cuties, their simple red satiny finish and contrast heel (not to mention a chic little bow) are great. Short sexy hair from ::69:: and fun triple dice earrings from /artilleri/, go well with some simple black bangles from Caroline's. Fun, Color, and Cuteness.

Look for the Cuties and other styles at Biddle Boots.

The stuff; Redgrave Skin, ::69:: Hair, Dress from Sweetest Goodbye, Biddle Boots, Accessories from /artilleri/ and Caroline's.
