For the last days of summer

Hello there,

When people are starting to get ready for the Autumn I prefer to enjoy the last few days of the summer. You know, to enjoy the sunshine, the soft breeze, the beaches which are still warm and lots of ice creams ... low in calories of course ;)

Well, one of my favorite piece of clothing to wear is the capris pants, they are the perfect piece for any occasion, just name something and I will show you how well they patch with the pants ;) ... So, for today I have chosen the pants from the Exotic Tangia in pink pearl and then matched it with the shirt from Spring Romance Mini Dress in lavander Rose. All this together goes perfectly with the beautiful and soft Anita Floral scarf from the collection Anita Floral Gown.

Don’t forget you can always get the scarf separately in 10 different colours.

For all of you in England have a nice bank holiday, for the rest of you ... have a great week

Tangia and Romance

Hola!

Cuando toda la gente empieza a prepararse para el Otoño yo prefiero disfrutar de los últimos días de verano. Ya saben, disfrutar de los días soleados, la agradable brisa, las playas aun cálidas y de los muchos helados ... obviamente bajos en caloría ;)

Bueno y una de mis piezas favoritas de vestir en esta temporada son los pantalones capris, son la pieza perfecta para toda ocasión, solo nombra una y te mostrare que tan bien se pueden combinar estos pantalones :) ... Así que para hoy he elegido los pantalones capri de la colección Exotic Tangia en rosado perla los cuales combinan perfectamente con la blusa de Spring Romance Mini Dress en lavanda rosado. Todo esto junto va perfectamente con la hermosa y delicado pañuelo de Anita Floral de la colección Anita Floral Gown.

No olvides que siempre puedes comprar estos pañuelos por separados en 10 diferentes colores.

Para todos los que están en Inglaterra, que tengan un genial día feriado y para quienes no, que tengan un genial comienzo de semana.

Ake! :3

Time for Sarai and Tess

Hello there,

As you can probably imagine the sunshine here didn’t last so long, just one day and that was it ... the next day was full of rain drops and soaking wet streets. But that doesn’t stop me having some fun, does it?, that is why to I’ve decided to go somewhere nice where good music makes you feel full of energy, just like having sunshine on you!

Being middle of the week, I was wondering where to go, and what to wear, but as soon as I saw the orange shirt from the Sarai Collection, I will never think that this shirt could work so well without the skirt, well ... if you wear the underpants layer and then the gorgeous trousers from Tess Dress and Pants, you will be able to mix and match the perfect suit for a night out ... again ... I will have fun and look gorgeous with my selection of clothes.

Sarai and Tess

Hola!

Como se pueden imaginar mi dia soleado no duro mucho, solo un día y eso seria, al día siguiente estaba lleno de gotas de lluvia y calles mojadisimas. pero eso no detiene mi diversion, o si? es por eso que decidí ir a algún lado entretenido con buena música, de esa que te llena de energía, tal y cual tuvieras un sol brillando en ti!

Siendo mitad de semana, me preguntaba donde ir, y que vestir, pero apenas vi la parte de arriba del vestido Sarai Collection en naranjo, nunca pensé que se vería tan bien sin las faldas, bueno ... y si vistes los pantalones que van como ropa interior y después te pones los pantalones de Tess Dress and Pants, seras capaz de tener una combinación perfecta para una noche de fiestas ... y otra vez me divertiré viéndome gloriosa como si elección de ropa.

Have a great week! // Que tengan una linda semana!

I wanted to wear light colours, that makes you feel young and fresh, my choice for this look is the top from Bloem Swim Suit and Mini Dress in aqua and the mini skirt from Nadia Liquid Swimsuit in teal, it is a lovely and perfect mix and match for a summer day just like the one I am having today.

Chill out Time ...

Hello Ladies,

One of the things I love the most is to come home from work and get changed into a nice confortable outfit. Specially those long boring busy days, when you just want to relax and chill out.

So, here is me in my chilling out wear, it is a mix and mach between Cecilia Beach Swim capris pants (lavanda colour) and Water Nymph Adrie top (version2) (pearl colour). Beautiful combination for these summer days.

... Still enjoying summer!

Cecilia and Adrie


Hola chicas,

Una de al cosas que mas amo es llegar del trabajo y vestir algo comodo. Especialmente esos dias largos y aburridos, cuando lo unico que quieres es descansar.

Asi que he aqui mi vestimenta de descanso, es una mezcla entre Cecilia Beach Swim, (en lavanda) pantalones capri, y el top de Water Nymph Adrie, en version 2, (en Perla). Una hermosa combinacion para estos dias de verano.

... Aun disfruto del verano!

About the system skirts worn within the boundaries of SecondLife™



FAQ : Why are system skirts so huge? Why does my hips and butt stick out in system skirts? Why does my butt look so ugly in system skirts?

Answer: 
Firstly, the system skirt will not mould itself to your AV body shape. Linden Lab's mesh template for system skirts wraps itself and sits with a lot of extra space above your original shape.  Giving the appearance that you have added lots of extra "pounds" round the hips and butt. This is something all clothing designers in SecondLife™ have to deal with and cannot fix.

FAQ: How can I wear system skirts and not have my hips and butt look huge?
  
Answer:
There is no fix for the Linden Lab mesh system by designers but there is a work around that many have used to over come this obstacle.

The easiest is to make a special "Skirt Shape".
First make a copy of your original shape.
This is important, always remember to make a copy of your original shape as a backup.

Name the copy as eg: NameBodyShape for Skirts.

Wear the copy and go to edit appearance mode and adjust the butt and saddle. Making it smaller till you see a shape you like in the system skirt.


eg: my original shape measurements for "Butt Size" is 35 and "Saddle" is 24

For my "Skirt Shape" I reduce those measurements to "Butt Size" 20 and "Saddle" 12

Please note these are just suggested measurements, you should play around with the sliders to get the right size you would need based on your own original body shape.

So whenever you wear a system skirt just switch to your "NameBodyShape for Skirts" shape and when you revert back to pants wear your original body shape eg "NameBodyShape Original"

Hope this helps you and you get to enjoy wearing system skirts once again.

Simply and Lovely

I can’t believe this week is nealy over, the time goes so fast that I hardly have time to enjoy every day as I should. That is why today I’ve decided to go out and have some fun on my own ... and yes you can also go out on your own too!

For the occasion I wanted to wear something light and pretty, so I took the short skirt from Mei set in purple, and then I chose the shirt from the Water Nymph Nadia set in a Pearl colour. For the accessories I took the purple belt from the Dragon Princess Body Suit.... simple and classy ... don’t you think so?

Feeling good

No puedo creer que ya estemos terminando esta semana, el tiempo vuela tan rapido que dificilmente tengo tiempo para disfrutar mis dias como deberia. Es por eso que he decidido salir y pasarlo bien sola, si, tambien puedes pasarlo bien sola.

Para la ocasion queria vestir algo liviando y lindo, asi que tome mi falda corta del conjunto Mei en morado, luego elegi la blusa del conjunto Water Nymph Nadia en color perla y como accesorio me puse el cinturon morado de Dragon Princess Body Suit.... simple y clasico, no lo creen?

Have a great end of the week! que tengan un genial fin de la semana.

Are you fancy on going clubbing? check this out then

I’m still in the mood for some clubbing, even though I have finished reading the book.

Looking inside my wardrobe (I have a hard time trying to find things) and I’ve realised that I had completely forgotten to wear lots of great outfits that could be mixed and matched for nights out. So being a person that likes red, I took the short jacket and gloves from the Sleek Paula outfit and the Spring Romance skirt. Then I mixed this with the top of the Fiona dress as it works perfectly as a corset and very sexy one at that ;)


So ladies, you are ready for another great ladies night out!

Night out again!

Aun estoy en el humor de ir de fiestas, aun cuando ya termine de leer el libro. Mirando mi guardaropa ( donde tengo grandes problemas en encontrar cosas) me di cuenta de que habia olvidado completamente de todos los conjuntos que podria mostrarles para salir de noche.

Asi que siendo una persona que le gusta mucho el rojo, tome la sensual casaca corta del conjunto Sleek Paula y sus guantes. Tambien vesti la falda de Spring Romance y luego segui buscando hasta encontrar el vestido Fiona, el cual tiene un corset que hace juego perfecto con mi tenida haciendome lucir muy sexy ;)


Asi que chicas, estamos listas para otra genial noche de fiestas!.
