Rawr….

Heading for a live gig with your favorite rock band…

Sexy little animal print mini-skirt paired with a basic tank gives a bit of attitude and works perfectly for the occasion. Add plenty of black bangles and platform wedges to complete the look.  I added the clutch for a little dose of girliness mixed in there.

Hair straight and simple (my current favorite!).  Eyes are smokey and lips are pale.

Super Casual

How can you not love the good old jeans and t-shirt? Especially when the jeans and the T-shirt are as lovely as these.

My favorite SL jeans right now are without a doubt these skinny ones from LF designs, with the fab sculptie leg prims. I’m so tired of bell bottoms and flared trousers – give me more skinny! :) . The Tee is classic Canimal – great texturing with a sense of humour. Matched it all with my beloved Lola platforms, colourful bangles and huge funky hoops.

Being the glam addict that I am, I couldn’t resist finishing off the look with some gorgeous hair and a smoky eyes-bare lip combo make-up. Product details below the cut.

Dishing the Dirt

So you had a great weekend, you partied, socialised and flirted. Now it’s Sunday and time for a gossip session with the girlsfriends: “did he call?”, “did you see what Lucy got up to!”, “you won’t believe what I heard…” You all know how it goes :) . As it’s Sunday, you can’t be bothered to put on make-up or even to brush your hair, so you reach for every girl’s must-have saviours: baseball cap and sunglasses.

You throw on a little jeans skirt and layered tank-tops. Add the hip velvet gloves just in case it gets a bit chilly. Finish off with comfy platform wedges and you are done!

Nude glossy lips is all thats needed. Product info below the cut.

Jeans and Jackets

Here are a couple of every day casual looks based around jeans and jackets.

image-1_21may2007.jpg
The first one is the slightly sexier look. I’ve got a black leather jacket and black boots paired with ripped jeans. The teal silk camisole adds a bit of luxury.

image-2_21may2007.jpg
The second one is the more casual look. Dark jeans paired with sporty red leather jacket and matching double layer of tanks. Sexy heels keep it from looking too causal.

For both looks I went with smoky eyes and bare lips together with big hair (more product details below the cut).

Three Takes on Hellenas

This time I’ve used the beautiful empire line (or babydoll, if you prefer) Hellenas dress from Last Call for an attempt at three different looks for the same dress. I just have to say that the texture on this dress is so lush, I can almost hear the silk swoosh as I walk. It feels expensive and exclusive.

High Society. I’m thinking swanky cocktail party in Manhattan’s Upper East Side, or in London’s Belgravia.

Elegant and classy hairdo paired with diamonds set in gold. Subtle make up and high, yet classy heels. Topped off with a gold sequin clutch – which you really can’t see so well in the pic, but looks fabulous as you walk or stand around.

Rock-chic. This look has attitude and can be worn anywhere anytime.

I like the contrast of the expensive looking silk dress with a khaki military style jacket and sturdy boots. Smoky eyes and sexy hair add attitude. No accessories needed.

Romantic. This girl just fell in love and can’t think of anything but her honey.

Keeping it simple as if she just threw on the first dress she saw, gathered her hair loosely, and slipped on a pair of ballerinas. The coin jewelry work with the embellishments on the dress itself.

Triple Take

Here’s an example of how versatile a dress can be. The dress in this spread is from artilleri, and even though it is rather original and particular in its design, it works in many different looks.

In this first one, which I like to call rock-chic, I added a jean jacket from G.L.A.M together with fishnets from !Wrong and calf-boots from ETD. Funky braids from Gurl6 top it off perfectly.

image-2_09may2007.jpg
Exchange the jean jacket for a white shrug, this one from Blaze, and add cute ballerinas (Shiny Things), and voilà – a sweet and innocent look. Hair from ETD.

Want to glam it up? Let the dress itself do all the talking. Just add some strappy heels (LC Vamp) and sexy hair. Cuff from Earthstones.

Savory Waistcoat and Sweet Bolero

Here are two takes on waistcoats/boleros – starting with the rock-chic waistcoat.

This is definitely a look I like, the don’t-mess-with-me-attitude feels really hot. And who does not like to hide behind dark glasses every now and then? Keep them guessing.

Waistcoat from ETD, tank from Last Call, jeans from LF Designs, necktie from Freaky Designs, boots from Shiny Things, sunglasses from Primoptic and bangles from Earthtones.

Now for the sweeter take with this gorgeous gold-sequined bolero from X3D.

This is pure summer-glam to me – deliciously golden and innocently white. But not too innocent, the sexy golden sandals keep it sensual. Goes perfectly with honey-bronzed skin and rosy cheeks…
