Maribou Feathers & Sequins


Here it is and it is so much fun! Maribou feather skirts (2 to be exact) and several looks in aqua sequins. This is a texture that came from a dress from the 1920's again and it is amazingly sparkly! Party dress and glamour what more can you ask for?

OOOOOO Feathers & Sequins!! O_O


It's late but I so loved the way this dress turned out that I wanted to give you a sneak peek - it is totally unexpected and fun! See you tomorrow with the finished product :)

Oscar De La Renta & Beaded Butterflies


Yes this is an Oscar De La Renta inspired dress and it comes from his design and to me it was very art deco 1920's so I added a frou frou skirt in flexi black, a black velvet skirt with matching beaded top and cut outs and also pants that can be long or short. This is a fantasy outfit and yet classic and eye-catching. Be a social butterfly in my "Beaded Butterfly Art Deco."

Famous Parisian HOUSE of LESAGE Heavily Beaded Bodice


There are some fashions that stand the test of time and I for one like that. Even in Second Life I need to know that a dress is a classic. This is one of those dresses. It's called "Aqua Beaded Chiffon 1968." Yes, it's based on a dress by the Famous Parisian HOUSE of LESAGE who if you are a fashion aficionado was associated with the Famous House of Worth. Classics do stand the test of time and this lovely beaded bodice and flowing chiffon skirt is just lovely.

1912 Lace Inspiration



This is a fantastic dress not only because of the fabulous texture which is taken from an original 1912 Battenburg lace dress but also for the fact that you can have so many different looks! I have included 2 flexi skirts and both are unique. I have also included short and long pants along with a long skirt slit up the side and a short skirt. I truly love this dress and it does make you feel beautiful and special.

OK So More Whitney


This one is a hot rhinestone studded bustier and I added black capris and chains with velvet ribbon. Whitney had some beautiful clothes and the designer of this busier is unknown but it is awesome and a great summer look ;p - by the way it is called "Whitney's Chains of Love." Oh where for art thou Bobbie Brown? lol - Enjoy!

The Power of Gold


It's all about the gold isn't it? Today's dress is called "The Power of Gold" and is glittery and gold and very sexy. It has hand-beading once again and also gold disks at at waist and at the top of the bodice. It's very exotic and striking as you can see. And we all know what the power of gold can bring right?

Red Hot Velvet Group Gift


I know I should go to bed but I forgot to blog the freebie of the day! Was I crazy - no just working in RL and then spending time with good friends in SL ;) This is a red velvet dress that Whitney Houston wore. It was longer but I shortened it and added a skirt for those who keep experiencing the disappearing skirt issue! The gathering is so nice as is the texture. I hope you all enjoy it :)

Bob Mackie & Whitney Houston



Today I am releasing a dress that is pure gold amazing! This is my version of a vintage Bob Mackie that Whitney Houston wore and it is all gold beading! There are so many ways to wear this and I tried to stay faithful to the design but in Second Life you have to make some changes. The back of the dress is absolutely beautiful and if you don't feel like a diva in this dress, I would be shocked :)

Hand-Beaded 1920's Orchid Dress


I am in love with this dress. I found it and had to try and replicate the dress for Second Life. It has been modernized but it retains the original hand-beading from the 1920's. Can you imagine the time and effort it took to construct this dress in real life? There is a bottom section (jacket layer) of more hand-beading and a lace chiffon skirt. Wonderful to dance the night away at your favorite night spot.
