Let it Shine | A little light never hurt ? right!

It November!!! That mean my All black challenge is over , Guess what I won in your face!!.
LOL anyways I love November !! if my favourite mouth for many reason some personal others because it the meeting of Fall and winter so soon there going be some snow. But lets get a hit of some Vitamin A and let the sun shine.

So today I thought I'd do a look that dark but still attract light . AKA black become the sun luv black , and you know it all those days in the summer when the sun shinning and your feel something on your back when your in that little black dress, that the sun sending love.

I really love this top, which original was a full outfit from AU V but I wanted to add a little more variety and texture to the look so I added Zipper Leather Pants from *COCO* which had a rocker feel to them and I really loved the belt and un zipped bottoms, depending on my windlight settings it really sparkled.

Too add to the whole dark effect I wore *CUPCAKES - Daydream - Honey - Skelly which I knows a Halloween skin but I luved the black lips and looks like a makeup look I could do with the MAC Style Black collection, who knows I may just try this in RL and post it LOL.

well thast all for now this was a quick post , didnet want leave you hanging :)

Class With a Twist| Using nutrals (surls not listed )

Today I really felt like wearing one of my favourite shades "Black" one that many consider stylish, sexy, elegant and powerful. Black , truly is the perfect shade.I wanted to do a sharp and to the point look, The solid black of this blazers screams business with a lot flare, with bold shoulders and V neck collar revealing a snow white old English corset.


To add a little fun to this look I added a *COCO* feather skirt which was crafted to the T. Each feather attached to the skirt moved and flattered my shape like a glove it was amazing it didn't look like it was primed the texture was so flawless and full of life.
As well some tights from MEB which added a shimmer effect under the feathers.
This an example of how you can pair simple pieces and create a any type of look. One simple shouldered blazer and feathered skirt some cute tights a small head pieces and BLAM your good.

Well thast all for now you may noticed my blogs have been shorted lately, dont feat ill be back to my chatty shelf blogging like a mad women.

The tale of the Pumpkin Witch| Jump Back, Twist the bones and bend the back.

"Come little children
I'll take thee away
into our land of enchantment
come little children
The times's come to play
here in my garden of magic"

It time to play some trick and pranks on thoe kiddies and humans, for one night im free. No longer confined to my magic pumpkin.

Hehe ok it time to give up the act , just wanted to have a little halloween fun even if it for one night. I'll keep this blog short and sweet , I kinda went crazy at the blackmarket hunt which was a blast but was super laggy so I retreated back to my pumkin pack to snap few a pic in my MIEL pumpkin couture , "no pumpkin were hurt in the making of this dress". Although I went a little matchy with this look, I felt it was ok because the look was too over the top like a 90's mucis video. I loved the pumpkin top hat it was so cute I could wear that with the heels and a jumpsuit or even short and a tee lol.



The skins from cupcakes compliemted the dress aswell the strong voliet wine lip really poped around the orange and my avatars eye which had a amber type look to it which I really luv because most time these eye look really brownish or bit greenish but never amber. As you may be able to tell.


And the legging with the boots really added that witchy effect to it all I needed was my broom stick and I was ready to fly spookying all in sight.

Well thats all for now

Question of the Hour: What your style? Women and men of Sl , Tell me!

What your style? and what does style mean to you?

A simple enough question but when you really ask your shelf do you really know the answers?

In my time in Sl roaming around blogging Ive come to meet many characters and people many of which have very different traits features and style, am sure for some it easy to state there style but for others it easier said then done. So i thought it be fun to do a survey if a way to see what people personal style and what style means to them hoping to come up with all different types of results.

"My personal style really reflects the way i feel sometimes it can change by the day but always comes down to what i feels a classic look that I think I've come to be known fornothing too over the top but never down with the dogs."

I personal feel your style tell quite a bit about you even for those who aren't into the whole idea of fashion and aren't big shoppers and into the latest trends, not saying you have be into that to have style or good style. And on that note what really is good style because am sure when we get dressed inSL or even Rl I don't think we put clothes on that will get people's attention but just show how grabs it in the way that we present ourselves and ourconfident. - Annie paster


"My style is NY Style, i love Ny and how they dress, very different then cali style, so when i get on sl i tend to play dress up with my avi and go for the new york look. Style means to me, self expression..what you wear can reflect many things, who you are, personality, and how you feel."

style is personal expression-Thora Charron


"I think "style" is a way of being. So saying someone "has got style" doesn't necessrily mean they are elegant, to me it just means they have a very specific way of bing and appearing (which, in any case, it's positive, cause it's a sign of having a strong personality). `

As for me, my personal style tends to be very simple. I like things that are beautiful without being "too much". Love the use of colour to add spice more than filling up a design with tiny patterns. So, well, being that what I personally like, the same idea is reflected in most of my creations:)-Clio Cardiff


These are just some of the answer from my survey , As you can see many of these answers are different some short and sweet , some needed more then just a few words to explain there style and what it means to them. It just shows us how different people really are and what the word "style" means to many.

One of the answers that I thought were really intresting were from Mystical Demina,

style, well thats a good question, there is simple answers like a particular characterstics of a look or behavior. But how to define it more conceptually to what it really is hehe, a good question.
looking at definitions I think this is interesting, Design, the process of creating something. Fashion, a prevailing mode of expression, e.g., clothing , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Style
Style (visual arts), in art and painting style can refer either to the aesthetic values followed in choosing what to paint (and how) or to the physical techniques employed. Style is more about the look, and design is more about creating the look, fashion is a group of styles more than a group, says prevailing style.

This actually what I do in work, so always find it interesting in other business things like branding when I desgin a system I have to break it down into its most basic parts, can think of them as atoms, then I have to look at how these peices related to each other for instance a company has employees, customers, etc, it is called object oeriented thinking objects can only have 3 basic types of relationship. An object can be of type of another object like a german shepard is a dog objects have have objects, like a dog has legs. They are the subparts of an object or objects can use objects a person opens the door, everything in the world uses those 3 relationships.

This view of style , and how he related it to so many driffrent topics have some great points and realy got me because althought it may seem like he`s saying style something we break down. Isnt that kinda of what we really do, pairing , matching changing , examing the look or outfit to see if it fits into the look your imanging or going for that picture in our heads.


I find really amazing how there be so many views on one word, really makes me think about some of the views and key points others may have on other topics , some bigger then fashion and style like , religon , lifestyles, war , just few of these examples and how small things can help the bigger picture.

Well am done rambling sorry this was such a long blog and the new one will be a full style card :). I hope hehe , I really think this survey went really well am so happy it did.

Leave a comment below answering the survey
What your style? and what does style mean to you?

All I want for Winter is MEB!! | Chill Down

All I want for Christmas is MEB!! Got my early X-mas wish because Ive gotten a chance to view and review some of the MEB new winter 09 collection out soon , At there 44th store. How lucky am I am. Once again am over joyed for this release this line features knits,textured skirts some furs leathers ,cottons and so much more it really going be a line to look out for there some casuals items I could see wearing everyday and pieces I could pair up for a special evening or date.


Behind each the looks I was shown, I felt as if there were a story that came along with it.The story I got for the look am wearing was a Chic small town girl with dreams of living in the big city hoping to make it big. But gets caught up in a life that she find wasn't what she originally wanted and goes back home to her family and dear friends, finding her true aspirations and dreams without the stress and fear of everything falling apart. Whooo there I go with my imagination.



But this look was really cute and such a winter look with the cotton jacket and knit sweater and the spin on the skirt not using a different type of soft texture. They choose to use a type of grit/bricked type texture on the skirt giving it a kind of modern twist, with the upper half of the skirt having a tiled effect and stretching downwards.Which really flowed together with the look
Specially with those Suede boots. OMG they were so cute MEBs boots and jackets are just amazing this to me what they will be known for as well having clothes that you can pair with almost anything, Because there work is just so well crafted. I will also be reviewing a few other look from the 09 winter line so stay toon for that.



credits to MEB items from this look are unreleased and still being named But here a surl to main store of MEB for some more of there amazing designs
