I Heart Sakuras

This week I was excited to find out that Sayuri Cremorne had some new releases, one of those is the Goldfish Dress which has a beautiful print done on the top part of the dress and a gorgeous flower, which I assumed to be a Sakura also known as a Cherry Blossom. That's why I immediatly thought of a place filled with flowers and trees for the picture, a place I felt went accordingly with the Goldish Dress.

P.S. I'm really happy to share with you the fact that this is my 60th blog post! I want to thank all the people that have approached to tell me how much they like my blog and of course, all the designers that have trusted me to share with the rest of the world their work. Thanks to all of you that have kept me going <3

Bye for now,

Lauryn

Sleek & Editorial

I found some interesting pieces of clothing at a store called **DIRAM**, and I thought I could do something interesting and fun with them. The first look was done with an outfit called Isabelle, basically a sweater tunic with a belt and leather pants, very sleek and very much my style, I just added the new VintageWear shades to the mix and it was ready to go. The second one is what I call a fashion risk, something I would imagine in a fashion magazine it's very high fashion and very dramatic.

Tasha: The Evolution

One of the first skin I bought in sl was Tasha by Laqroki, I'd been looking for months as a noobish avatar when I finally came across Tasha, it was love at first sight. At the time, the new laqroki Glow Skin line didn't exist it was all about the Portrait Skins. I wore Tasha for months, if you want prove just look at the first blog posts I made back in September of 2008.

That's why I was so excited when I heard Laqroki was releasing a new version of Tasha as a part of the new skin line. And I thought it would be interesting to show all of you how much these skins have evolved, if they were really good back in my noob days (and they still are) they are just plain fantastic now! As you can all see in the pictures both skins are really good, but the new Glow Skin Line will provide a better shading (without being overdone) and a much improved and realistic detailing.

I'll let all of you be the judges... but this is one of those times in which images speak louder than words.

P.S. The fatpack for the new Tasha Glow Skins is only 1990L!

Party in Miami!

It seems like I'm inspired lately, so I'm going to take advantage of that as much as I can. Since my last two looks were on the soft and girly side I decided to shake it up a little and do a more colorful and funky outfit. I imagined myself wearing this in a place surrounded by palm trees and next to a bar or a club, the place that immediatly came to my mind was South Beach.

It all started with this new top from Dollita, which set the mood of this blog post, the rest came naturaly. The new Fab.Pony Sunglasses match perfectly with the tropical feel of this outfit and the new jewelry from Uzuri worked as a charm.

Hope you guys like it! Lauryn <3

Tulip

I'm still amazed by the cute dresses and wonderful new items Sugarcube has released over the past few days. This store was one of my major fashion discoveries as a noob, I remember I loved everything in the store and well that hasn't changed! Sayuri released Hasu (this wonderful dress) which at the moment it's only available in white, but she spoiled me (ty! <3) and gave it to me in pink a yet to be released color <3.

Monochromatic

I've been obsessing over soft colors lately, even though I almost always go for color contrasts I decided that this time around I would do a soft and delicate mix. Luckily, the new releases by Sugarcube, Atelier AM and Truth made that easy. The new sugarcube skirts are adorable, it's really a great find and an awesome addition to any girls closet as far as the new Atelier AM necklaces go... pearls and a flower need I say more? <3>
