Royal Westwood

Posted by Reilee Sabra on November 2, 2011

If any of you are not familiar with LeeZu! then you are missing out on some of the most intricate designs out in Second Life today. I find that so many of my lindens go to their shop but I have never regretted a single purchase. Yesterday they released a new winter coat call Westwood. So many colorful variations that I actually had a difficult time deciding to go with the Royal Blue. This is a must have for your Fall/Winter wardrobe.

Shhh….I am not wearing anything under my coat but I have paired it up with a pair a darling Secret Boots that I picked up from [elikatra] during their last super sale.

I say – BRING ON THE SNOW!

Bring It

Posted by Reilee Sabra on November 2, 2011

I don’t know about all of you but I for one am happy that the first holiday of the season is gone. Goodbye Halloween and bring on the snow, the feasts and the pretty little packages wrapped under my tree. I love this time of the year and thought I would start this season off right with this amazing look that actually was borrowed and expanded upon by an amazing Blogger, Nienor Savira. I hope she doesn’t mind. Truth is, I desperately wanted to try something out of my typical norm. No pastels, no ruffles, no cutesy little bows.

Stickyfingers has released this fantastic little cardigan dress that covers it all yet leaves enough flesh exposed to lead anyone’s imagination. I chose the camo style to begin with but when I had some delivery issues, the Owner, Chanel Adored was kind enough to throw me just a khaki color as well. Talk about amazing Customer Service!

Next we have this perfect S’Wear “Croc” Leather Jacket brought to us by Lapointe & Bastchild. I can not say enough about these two particular Designers. The attention to detail is unparalleled in each item I have ever purchased from them and this remains the case with this particular jacket. Stop by their shop today and see for yourself.

The last little item I would love to highlight would be my crowning achievement. I tried on several occasions to find piercings that worked just perfectly. After about two years of trying to find the perfect ones in style as well as design, I had just about given up until I came across Creatives! piercing called Titan. With just a little toying around and modification I was able to get each piece to fit my shape perfectly! My most favorite aspect to this particular creation is that there is shadowing! If you look closely, it brings the realism to an entirely new level. The dimple piercing actually looks like my dimples indent! Keep up the amazing work Sharon Lupindo!

Happy Halloween – Bast Goddess

Posted by Reilee Sabra on October 31, 2011

I know that Halloween is a time for everyone to dress up as big bad oogie boogies but this year I thought I would do something a little different. Egypt has always been a favored study of mine, right down to traveling to Egypt once and dancing for the Prince. My experiences there have always been utterly amazing, so this year for Halloween I thought I would do a small tribute to the Bast Goddess.

Bast (Bastet, Pasch, Ubasti, Ba en Aset) – Daughter of the sun god Ra, wife of Ptah, and mother of Mihos, Bast is an ancient Egyptian goddess who is still greatly revered by many today. Her worship began around the year 3200 BCE during the second dynasty in northern Egypt and her city is Bubastis. There, and in many other ancient cities, Egyptians celebrated Bast’s feast day, October 31st, with great joy and enthusiasm honouring their goddess, their protectress. Related to Neith, the Night Goddess, Bast symbolized the moon in its function of making a woman fruitful, with swelling womb. She was also the Egyptian Goddess of pleasure, music, dancing and joy, and associated with the Eye of Ra, acting as the instrument of the Sun God’s vengeance.

Illusions has three (3) of the most amazing Egyptian Masks located within their store. Horus, Bast, and Anubis. Plus, you will be able to find the shown jewelry you see here along with some outfits to help you complete your look. I personally chose a silk number from Wishbox and changed the colors of the chains and stones myself. With a little imagination, anything is possible!

Marina De…Catwa?

Posted by Reilee Sabra on October 27, 2011

Anyone who knows me knows that I am an absolute Second Life Hair Whore. I think currently I have close to 600 different styles from various places within SL and I am always tickled pink when new stores and styles emerge. This post is simply because I love this new hair from Catwa called Marina. The style is such that I can not wear it around all day every day but it works perfect for photos. Thus my newest favorite photography hairstyle.

Something Incredibly Wicked…

Posted by Reilee Sabra on October 26, 2011

…This Way Comes!

While I am not one to show off my naughty bits in a public posting – I had to make an exception for this perfectly tantalizing piece of lingerie from Blacklace. The little number was found on my Taste of SL shopping list on Sunday and knew I had to blog about it. The lacy details are amazingly drawn and I loved every last piece other than the stockings. When I put them on, there was black bleeding upon the upper thigh. I didn’t take a photo of that but simply removed them and it still was a complete and adorable piece.

I showed my “Other Half” the completed photos and he agreed that it was a terrific piece. Needless to say it did not remain on very long after the photos were shot!

Happy Witching Season Everyone!

Steampunk Diva

Posted by Reilee Sabra on October 26, 2011

When I shot these photographs I half expected for some dark shadowy figure to come out of the shadows and scare the living bejebus out of me. Something about the dark victorian look always brings about visions of Jack The Ripper. And I have no idea why people tell me I watch too many horror movies. I say to them…Tis The Season!

This stunning Steampunk Diva dress is perfectly designed and was exactly what I needed and when I found it last week. VNP Ninetails was offering it at her shop Vassnia for 50% off the regular price. When I went to grab the SLURL, I noticed that it is still on sale so be sure to grab it now. I couldn’t resist. I will say this though…other than this gown having a Victorian flare, there is absolutely nothing about it that is Steampunk-ish. The details are amazing and come with the choker and shoes.

I hope that you all enjoy.

Concrete Angel

Posted by Reilee Sabra on October 18, 2011

Awhile back I made a promise to focus a bit more on accessories and I have done just that. I am by no means a fashion accessory whore as I have always stuck to the theory that less is more. However, there are many times that I come across something that catches my attention and I simply MUST have it.

Much was the case for this up and coming look. Notice the face chain? I originally saw this on Second Life’s Marketplace and wanted it badly but I suspected that it would be a pain in the rear end to adjust to fit my custom shape. I never have much luck with piercings and such, even when I do tons of modifications.

My impulse shopping won out and I found this in my shopping cart and I just have to say that I was beyond impressed that the moment I put it on, it fit! No adjustments what-so-ever!

Granted I now want to wear it with everything and it just doesn’t work with most looks but throw me in a urban environment, let out my ebon wings and this is what you get!

The Fallen

Posted by Reilee Sabra on October 13, 2011

Okay, I will be the first to admit that I am a horrible Blogger! It’s been six days since my last post…..whoa stop! This is starting to sound like a sunday morning church confession. In truth is kind of is. I have discovered this amazing new place and I want to share it all with you!

As many of you are aware, Second Life is littered with tons of roleplaying locations. From Medieval Fantasy to Post-Apocalypitc Urban Sims. Some of these sims only allow for human’s while others host a myriad of other creatures. Well I am about to tell you of one more. However, this time the news is good. A brand new roleplaying sim that is called The Fallen. Owned by Dominic Darkmatter and put together by himself and his wonderful creative team. Beware though…you will find yourself in a mix of Vampires, Angels, Demons, Lycan, Mages and more! Everyone has been amazing and if roleplaying just so happens to be your thing, contact Dominic Darkmatter today for more information or stop by the sim for yourself and take a look around. I promise you that you will not be disappointed.

This is what has inspired this new, darker look I am wearing today and just in time for spooky Halloween. Imagine the dark corners of a desolate street, the cold chill washing over your body, and the howls of creatures echoing within the nights fog. I know that it definitely entices the darker side of my personality.

Paperdolls

Posted by Reilee Sabra on October 7, 2011

I am sorry that I have been slow in getting some of my favorite fashions blogged for all of you. Real life has been kicking my behind and I have been wrapped up in a whirlwind known as life but I promise to be better. My new goal….at least one post a day for this entire month of October!

I am aware that this following outfit is not all that seasonable and I have not styled it as such but we got our first snow yesterday and I needed something sweet and flowery. So I bring to you one of my most favorite designers…Zoey Garbardini of paper.doll. Each and every one of her designs is simply stunning and masterfully created.

If you are not a fan of paper.doll clothing, you are definately missing out. Stop by the shop today and pick up your own goodies and if you are a blogger, she is currently looking to start her own blogging group! Drop her a notecard with your URL and you might be one of the luckies that gets chosen to showcase all of her designs!
