Feeling the “Rhythm” of Bashara by VelvetRhythms

Posted in Opium Fashion Agency, Opium Fashion Agency, Opium Insight, Opium Insight - Fashion Shows, Reviews with tags , , , on February 10, 2010 by devlinm

Velvetori Twine of VelvetRhythms has created a fashion line of outstanding clothing that is stunning to wear!   I have the chance to blog about the outfit Bashara.

To start with, when I received this, I couldn’t pick what outfit to start with.  I say that because it comes with so many options I could have created a million different looks (which I will share some of them below.)  This sexy aqua dress is just one of the options that you have to pick from.  You can see the material was used from the finest silk textures that flows and moves with the light.  Feeling sexy has never been easier, when this outfit is put on.  Show a little leg and dance your way into someone’s heart.  The top to this fabulous creation comes as you see above or there is another option that show a little more skin.  It gorgeously wraps your body and makes you feel as though its was created specifically for you.

Now to show off some of the sexy mix and match pieces.

Ok in this group you can see the second top option, first off is the Daring top with the Daring panties, second was the Daring Top with the Daring panties and the cocktail skirt.   Last in this set is the Cami top, High Waist Shorts and the sequined bolero.

Round two of my mix and matches… All wearing the sequined bolero jacket.  Which as you can see the fine detailing of the texture.  It’s GORGEOUS!  I have already found more options for this sexy set of aqua delights!  They can work with anything, skirts, pants, jackets tops, mix and match til your hearts desire!

If you’re looking for something unique, sexy, sleek and fun.  Head down to VelvetRhythms to pick out some fabulous choices.   I am still mixing and matching up these outfits!

Pulse Skins: 2 Years of Beautiful Skin Making

Posted in Reviews with tags , , , , on February 10, 2010 by briepinazzo

I have been in sl 2 years this month and for as long as I have been here, one constant has been Pulse Skins. Lorac Farella has been making Second Life beautiful, one Avi at a time and she does it in such a stunning style, worth each and every linden you invest in one of her beautiful creations.

Her newest contribution is Isabella. A perfect tanned complexion with simple but striking makeup options and what I feel is the signature part of any pulse skins, beautiful lips. The lips on a pulse skin are always very detailed, some including only what i can describe as a “faded lipstick” appearance. This is where the main color is faded but a darker color looks to have pooled in the crevices of the lip itself. The effect is very realistic and totally natural, not something you see in most other skins and something that truly brings me back for more.

I for one sincerely look forward to the future contributions from Pulse. I love her realistic skins and as you can see they are wonderful for photographing, airing a bit of realism to an avatar but also a ton of shading and dimension to the avi itself. Lorac is very helpful so if you find her hovering about in her store she is a hands-on type of person and will go out of her way to help you pick a skin that is perfect for your existing shape or even help you choose a shape just right for you, most of her skins come with the option to purchase a shape with it as well as her Cleavage Enhancer which goes with each individual skin and adds a little more something to plunging necklines and strapless gowns. I for one look forward to the future through Lorac’s eyes and the amazing skins that it brings.

A Mini With Maxi Style!!

Posted in OFA Models, Opium Fashion Agency, Reviews with tags , , , , on February 9, 2010 by avonaryba

What better way is there to show off those long long legs than to slip into a short skirt or dress .. well I know one amazing designer who has just the little dress to do exactly that.. Meghindo Romano is the lady who has put the WOW into many a smexy little outfit. The newly released Delia is in a quartet of subtle shades and looks absolutely fabulous!!

Antique gold and silver pick out and shape the top and straps giving this simply styled mini a touch of pizzazz. Ruching beneath the bust creates an interesting detail that catches the eye. I’m wearing a really nice silver link belt which sits perfectly on the hips

Add a pair of jeans or leggings and you have another great outfit… Either way this is a mini that speaks out in maxi fashion style… Watch this space for more of Meghindos designs..

If you can’t wait take a tp on down to Meghindos inworld store

Perfect Valentine’s Day Gift

Posted in Reviews with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 9, 2010 by emmaportilo

What is the perfect Valentine’s Day gift?  Perhaps giving your loved one a nice little something you’d like to see them in?  Or, perhaps wearing a nice little something for them?  Whether giving or receiving, this is the perfect combination!

This is the Leo Bra Set, shown here in red.  It comes with bra, string, garter and stockings.  The bra comes in all layers.  Red, being my favorite color and a common color for Valentine’s Day, is my choice for this special occasion.

A beautiful leopard print is trimmed with black lace.  This picture gives a closer look into the beautiful and fine details on the set as worn with the garter.

The versitility of it to be worn without the garter is nice too.

The fabulously detailed set is available in other colors as well: pink, green, blue, aqua, purple and regular leopard print.

I am in love with the quality and details of this set and definitely would recommend it to everyone.  I have so much lingerie in my inventory, but this piece is going to be THE special one for Valentine’s Day!  Slip on over to Exclusiva and pick up a set in your favorite color – or the favorite color of that special someone today.  Or just order from their Look Book for immediate delivery and convenient shopping.

Melody Makes You Feel Like Dancing

Posted in Reviews with tags , , , , , on February 9, 2010 by briepinazzo

From Ora Trei comes Melody, a stunning set that just makes you feel like putting on your favorite tunes and dancing around the room. The beautiful flexi skirt is embellished with red and white music notes, just an amazingly textured dress, perfect for a night out with your sweetheart at Bogart’s or your favorite ballroom. It is a truly original idea and one to certainly make people stop and stare.

Like all outfits from Ora Trei, you dont just get one outfit, Melody includes pants to make a sexy catsuit for a more casual look, completing this outfit is a belt and even shoes. They really think of everything with this one… no excuses ladies, there is a place to enjoy this beautiful outfit.

This outfit is fabulous down to the details on the back of the top of the catsuit/dress. It is just wonderfully made and something I hope you add to your closet soon.

A little different?  Yes.  A little funny?  Perhaps.  Cute as can be?  Yes!!!  I figure it’s my birthday so why not do something funky and cute and different.  Something that makes me look like I’m celebrating!

Strike Gold At Meghindos

Posted in OFA Models, Opium Fashion Agency, Reviews with tags , , , , on February 8, 2010 by avonaryba

Meghindo Romano has been busy creating something beautiful. Rich golden hues make this evening gown shine with opulence. Stylishly cut to reveal enough bare skin to tease the imagination. “Liquid Gold” is an absolute pleasure to wear and is one of Meghindos new releases.

A closer look reveals a pretty detailed belt/band (also features at the wrist on the gloves) around the hips which I think gives a soft retro look to this lovely gown. Over the elbow gloves add a touch of decadent elegance.

The back is as revealing as the front beautifully cut with a great shape and style

Though I’m not sure Meghindo intended this.. I really like this sylph like cat suit.. purrrrs… so slinky and tight. The belt just sets the whole outfit off to a purrrfect meow!!… worn with high heels and not a lot else.. makes for one deliciously golden feline look !!!!

Keep an eye out for more of Meghindo’s releases… there is definetly more to come. In the meantime take a limo to Meghindos and check out more of Meghindo Romano’s fabulous designs for yourself
