Golden Elegant Mix
This pairing of the alluring corseted Mia skirt from LeeZu Baxter and dangerous gold halter from Boa Creations show a mix of sexy and elegance. Always a deadly combo. Between the fluttery material and side slits it will have your date looking twice to wonder what he or she is actually seeing.
The cool thing is that the Mia corseted skirt comes in a handful colors, as does that halter from Boa Creations. Imagine a pink halter with a white skirt and smexified Bax boots in white. Unf. The possibilities are grand.

Skirt: LeeZu – Mia Black
Shoes: N-core STYLUS Platform XtremeHeel Black

Digit Darkes – Subliminal

Digit Darkes – Subliminal
A new release from Digit Darkes is anything but subliminal. When I saw this dress in navy, I knew it had to be mine. I love everything that is navy, especially when it’s sexy, dressy navy. To me navy in the shape of a little black dress can be sexier than a little black dress. Does that make sense?
This dress has a sexy bra-type top which flows nicely and beautifully into the gown. Both parts of the dress are brought together by a script sizeable black corset-type belt with silver buckles. My only tiny complaint is that both the corset and the gown use chest and spine attachments, so adding in a necklace can take a bit of attachment wizardry. The bottom of the gown is hemmed in this gorgeous black lace that really adds detail that my photos don’t do justice to.

Gown:Digit Darkes-Subliminal Dress-Navy (B)
Shoes: [*RedGrave*] London Heels -Black-

Lost Dreams Abbey
An erethreal dress newly released from Estelle Parnall of Lost Dreams. Inspired by Versace, the cut is elegant and uncomplicated, but the feathers that make up the skirt and body make this dress special. Offered in rose, blue and ivory, it’s a dress to be romanced in.
Style Note: I did have a challenge with finding a necklace to compliment as longer necklaces tend to get hidden and lost in the feathers on the bodice. The necklace I chose was from a store I accidentally discovered called Virtual Impressions. Chrissy Ambrose makes gorgeous fancy jewelry. When I want quality diamond pieces, I head there.
Wearing:
Dress: Lost Dreams – Glamazon Abbey dress in rose
Shoes: Stiletto Moody – Silver Stud Pump (Gold)
Necklace/Earrings: Virtual Impressions Fleur in Gold Pearls and Diamonds
Hair: ETD Yvette

Mimikri – Kiku

Mimikri – Kiku Summer
Spring is upon us and so is wedding season. As you know, the grid is always in full bloom with love and romance. (Yeah, present company included.) I get invited to a few weddings and there is always so much to choose from to wear. However, Mimikri has a perfect dress for attending a wedding. A fairly recent release from this designer, it’s offered in four different versions with various soft colors and floral patterns. Each one named after a season.
This sexy dress reminds me a lot of designs from Betsy Johnson with its lingerie-inspired black lace bodice and form-fitting skirt of Asian silk. Yes, this is a system skirt, but I’ve come to terms with my booty-licious booty. Hang on to your hat, I modified my shape. I know what you’re thinking. I know I vowed not to modify but dang it, this dress is just so pretty, and I looked so broad in the beam that I had to do something. My reasoning is that it’s like dieting to fit in to a special dress in real life. So there I have it, “My Shape On A Diet.” I am now one with the system skirt. (Yeah, I’m a slow learner.)
Go to Mimikri ’s shop and see what other goodies that go along with this dress. There’s a two in one” jacket and coat available that goes along with this shift dress and hip new drape pants that can be combined for a great club look.
A perfect compliment to this dress is jewelry from Eclectica. I am wearing the complete set of green glass jewelry. I apologize that it’s hard to see in the photos. Trust me, pay a visit to this designer and see for yourself the detail and quality she puts in to her jewelry.

Dress: * Mimikri – Kiku summer/ Dress

Also new is a hair style from Truth that features a sexy side-sweep of hair that highlights the elegance of the look.

Lost Dreams – Michelle
A beautiful new dress from Estelle Parnall of Lost Dreams new high-fashion line Glamazon. It’s called Michelle and it’s a dream. It’s one of those dresses that look better in Ultra settings. The silk pink bodice plunges in the back while the skirt is made of tiers of gauzy feathers. My pictures below do not do it justice. I realized that once I put it on, there was only one place to take pictures, and that’s the eretheal beauty of Tempura Island. So I fought the hell lag.
Muse’s over-the-shoulder brooch from a couple years back is the perfect compliment to this dress as are Stiletto Moody Foxy sling backs.
Wearing:
Dress: Lost Dreams – Glamazon Pink Michelle (Boxed)
Shoes: Stiletto Moody – Foxy Slingback (Silver)
Necklace: ~Muse~ Chatelaine Shoulder Brooch and Chain (silver)

Naive’s Dare
Huge new release from Leah McCullough of Naive. This glamorous gown is from the Catwalk Collection and totally reminds me of a 20s starlet on Academy Award night. It’s scalloped-edged gossamer skirt will make you shine. Wouldn’t this be gorgeous with some 20s hair styles? Like maybe a short marcelle waved bob?
My hair is Elise from Exile and while I just love Exile’s styles, I have a hard time fitting them to my fairly standard-size melon. The same goes with 69’s hair styles. So, if you have a 50+ head, you might run into sizing issues. SO if you’re not good with the cursor, I’d advise against this style.

Gown: Naive - Daring
