~DRESSCODE~ Fashion show, Silken Temptations

On July 20, ~DRESSCODE~, hosted a fashion show featuring the designs of WoW Skins and Blacklace. The show was called Silken Tempatations. The designs were surely tempting and delectable.

~DRESSCODE~ is run by Niani Resident and Joana Wingtips.

There were not enough models, so CEO Niani, also modelled the skins and lingerie. Niani is also a fashion blogger for WOW skins, Bizarre Hair, and other fabulous brands! Below is the first look Niani strutted out with at this crowded, exciting fashion show.

Joana Wingtips announced each skin and lingerie set that each model presented to the audience.

[12:38] Joana Wingtips shouts: Our first  skin  that  is being  presented on the catwalk tonight is  "Channel" - and it  is a truly  exquisite work, coming  in the  four shades MILK, TAN, SUNKISSED and DARK TAN, each  one designed to underline your beauty and personality.
A bit  later you  will see Emma wearing the MILK shade,  the perfect  choice who love the paler tones with their "ladylikeness".

[12:39] Joana Wingtips shouts: But  all  three  convince with their naturalness and the six different make-ups from  natural  to more dramatic in  which  you  can get  them, depending on  your mood or the  occasion  you want to  wear  this  skin.
The full pack of  all shades includes  twelve skins and the shape as well  which  can  be  bought separately, too. And of course you  can  get the skin texture both  for  Slink  hands and feet.

Niani posed in the dark tan version and Cleopatra posed in the tan version.

The designs of Mariska Simmons were sultry and smoking hot, as usual. I loved the green lace set that Niani wore at the opening of the show, Kirsty in Teal. In Joana's words, "A "must" for all those of you who simply love the feeling of pure lace on skin, as  its made of the finest you could wish for." Niani makes it elegant with her necklace, finely manicured nails, and her shiny strappy stilettos.

[12:40] Joana Wingtips shouts: Each set , and it comes in six different vibrant colours,  has been combined with black bows, a small one on the bra and bigger,  eyecatching ones on the garter under which you  can catch  a glimpse of the black panties shimmering through the delicate fabric.
The black of bows and panties shows as well on the straps and the smooth silken stockings - a breathtaking combination and one every female should call her own.

Below, is Cleopatra Heron in a daring black latex lingerie set. Cleopatra is shown in the Musa skin in the Caramel tone by WoW Skins.

[12:47] Joana Wingtips shouts: You  love skins of a darker complexion? Then  "Musa" will  be the one for  you!
Three shades are available: VANILLA, CARAMEL and CHOCOLATE - all three beautifully  made and giving the one who  wears them a sexy and exotic look.

[12:47] Joana Wingtips shouts: The shimmery skin is  enhanced  by the different make-ups you  can  get individually or in  a fat pack. Each of them   will allow  you to match  not only your clothes but as well the mood  you are in.

[12:47] Joana Wingtips shouts: Cleo is the first  to show  this fabulous  skin,  she is  wearing  the CARAMEL version  and it looks superb for sure.

[12:48] Joana Wingtips shouts: Studs - leather and clasps .... brilliantly combined in lingerie called Lybra.

[12:48] Joana Wingtips shouts: Sexy and soft clings the fabric of corselet, garters and thongs onto  Cleo's body, while the smooth  silk of the matching  stockings flatters long legs.

[12:48] Joana Wingtips shouts: This outfit especially captivates because of the many details. Studs are placed along  the rims of each piece of underwear, silver clasps have been  used to hold the garters and to  close the top underneath  your bus and the way the  panties have been designed will make you have a second look.

[12:48] Joana Wingtips shouts: The  three warm dark colours in which  you  can purchase this outfit will make it  difficult to  choose from  as each will look  great on  each  complexion.


~DRESSCODE~ is a new fashion agency that started up in June. Joana Wingtips is the builder. She built all the catwalks herself. Together, she and Niani run the agency as co-CEOs. Niani does business relations and all  the styling. Niani used to be a model herself. Her style is elegant, stunning, and so sexy.

In August, there will be classes for interested models who would like to learn the ~DRESSCODE~ way. Further information is forthcoming, so stay tuned! And who knows, maybe you might see me at one of the classes?!

I've known Niani for about a year and I love her personality, her style, her work ethic, plus her photography is just gorgeous! She's on flickr as xxnianix. :-)

Have fun and enjoy SL!

A third look at FFL 2013

Hello fashion bloggers and shopping lovers!

My first item for this post about FFL 2013 is a deep,  royal blue plunge neck dress. It is mesh. See my photo below.

Dress: Just Darling Tessa
Shoes: *GF* wedge pumps in beige
:Jewelry: ::Krystal::: Claire
Hair: EMO-TIONS Semiramis

::Just Darling:: Tessa mesh dress in blue

I love how it clings and drapes against the body. It is mesh. Again, I am wearing Gfields, except the Adele pumps are in beige.  The jewelry is by :::Krystal:::, it is the Claire earring and necklace set. Below is a better picture of Claire.


The set looks so delicate and I think the purple goes well with the blue dress.

Next up is a deep purple dress from Kouse Sanctum, or K~*~S. The gown is called Breeze. It is not mesh.
Pose: Possesion Spanish set 9. This dress is great for role play or for dancing with. The detail on the bodice is just stunning. The jewelry looks delicate and goes well with the dress.

Jewelry: Lazuri Princess of the Forest



For my next look I went casual. It is a mesh pant suit from AvaGirl.

Pant suit: AvaGirl Nena in black
Jewelry: Lazuri Princess of the Forest


A few people have complimented me on it. It fits well and it looks great.

The next outfit I chose is bright. I hope it doesn't look too overpowering. I put together bright pinks with red.


Mesh pant set: Bohoish
Pose: PoseSion Spanish 10
Shoes: Bliensen + MaiTai Corazon pumps magenta
Jewlery Eclectica Bibelot Fuschia & Gold
Hair: EMO-TIONS Claire gift hair in red

For this photo, I am in Madrid Solo's stall in Thoth Jantzen's Pyramid of Giza. Madrid Solo has outstanding makeup!

Outside Pyramid of Giza
This is a daring shot. I'm near one of the braziers, several meters above the entrance. Don't come up if you're afraid of falling! I intensified the color of the flame, in case you're wondering.

So that's my third look at FFL 2013. More to come!

Have fun and enjoy the art!

FFL 2013 A second look

Greetings all!

This is my second entry about FFL 2013. There are so many wonderful designs here. You should definitely come on over. I am still working on pictures of the 9 sims. I have spent days taking snapshots. Look for an article about it in the newest issue of BOSL magazine. In it, I will be describing the builds and chatting with the talented, amazing sim builders. It looks incredible! I am so excited about it and I hope you'll enjoy reading about it!

So these are the looks I've created with some of the FFL designs. Below I am wearing:

Gown: Mohna Lisa Couture Tatiana V2 green
Jewelry: Vintage Antinea Gold
Hair: EMO-TIONS Estelle


Mohna Lisa Couture Tatiana

The gown has that trademark sparkle that *MLC* is known for. The gown is full mesh. The hair is part mesh. I love the jewelry set. The necklace has a bit of glow to it. It adds brilliance to it.

Blacklace Danae & Daphne set
Blacklace is what I'm wearing in this second photo. Blacklace is well known for quality lingerie and quality clothes. Under the caption, you'll notice the ampersand "&". I combined 2 lingerie sets together. Danae is an under bust corset only. So I added Daphne, which comes with a bra and garters with stockings. I love this set. It is gold embroidery on white silk. It's luxurious, sleek, and so sexy.

Hair: EMO-Tions Semiramis

Now for a more colorful, casual design comes a bright dress from dm Devious mind. It is "Miss Betty" Pin up dress *FLOWERPOWER*. It's a fun casual dress. The pink flower in my hair, Semiramis by EMO-TIONS, is included. Shoes are GFields (*GF*) Adele in coral. I am standing outside the temple that houses the Statue of Zeus, one of the FFL sims. Stay tuned for my later post that will have pictures of all the sims.

A sweet mesh dress is ::Just Darling:: Beth. I love the ruffles on the top of the bodice. It gives it a flirty, feminine look. It is mesh so it conforms to ever curve. It is so tight and pretty.

Just Darling Beth

So that's another preview of the outfits you can buy at FFL 2013.

Have fun and enjoy life!

FFL 2013 some designer outfits I tried

Hey all!
This is my first official post about Fashion For Life 2013. This is a preview of some of the designs that are there. It will be open to the public starting March 9th and lasts until the 17th. 
Schoen Passion Wedding version with Emo-Tions Dunja hair and Kunglers Extra Maracuja necklace

There are so many brilliant and classy and modern designs. These are only a few. Above is Schoen's Passion Wedding dress, it does come in a regular version. The layering is elegant and it's flexi so it moves fluidly with your avatar's movement. The hair is by Emo-Tions, it's Dunja in Autumn. I love the headband that is attached to the hair. Emo-Tions has such lovely hair. The necklace is from Kunglers. It is made up of 1 golden sunflower and 2 small clusters are on each side. The central sunflower has a ruby embedded in it.

Sassy has several designs. Below is featured Penny Lane in Sangria. It is mesh so make sure you have a mesh enabled viewer.

I love evening gowns. This one is from "Chamonix". It's their velvet and lace gown. It is mesh.  I am wearing it in small. 
"Chamonix" velvet and lace gown

I thought I'd include one of my favorite brands, Son!a. Her designs are dreamy, elegant, and always so sultry. This is Celine in black and it is the short skirt version. It comes in several colors.

For all the other photos, the hair is Exile Love Song. 

So that's it for now! 

Have fun and enjoy life!
