Greetings From Shiny Shabby!

Greetings to all from the SL Shiny Shabby Event!  It was such a pleasure walking around this event it's a very quaint set up with adorable shabby chic charm.  It's set up to look like a small historical town with wrought iron benches and gas lamp street lights.

It was a little hard to navigate at first until everything got rezzed and I did change my windlight settings upon arrival so I could see things better.  The shops are set up around the center square, where there is a cool gypsy vardo with gifts available for group members.  (I'm crazy about all things gypsy... we'll get into that in later postings) so I had to take a pic with me sitting on the vardo!

There were many gorgeous items for sale here but the one that really caught my eye was these amazing Headbands/Wreaths from Ariskea.  I fell in love with them at first sight and I had to buy several to coordinate with all of my spring and summer dresses.  Don't these make you think about walking in a field of flowers on a warm summer day?  Like wearing a bit of sunshine!

Gown of the Week From FLOWERDREAMS by Nile Karas

As many of you know (or may not know) I have a franchisee partnership with one of Second Life's best designers Nile Karas, owner and designer of FLOWERDREAMS by Nile Karas.  We have a satellite store at the Sweethearts Shopping Plaza, it's located to the left of the landing area when you arrive at the club.

Sweethearts Jazz & Romance Club

This gorgeous gown I am featuring this week is called "Ece" and it is available in two colorways at our store.  This is the lovely golden version, and the other one is done in rainbow hues.  It has a subtle sparkle to it and a "gleam from within" that does not show in the picture due to the studio windlight settings.  This gown is much more beautiful inworld, I'll be wearing it this evening at the club come take a look!

What I am wearing:  Queen of Hearts Necklace from Lazuri, Belleza skin, and Priyanka hair from Catwa.  

Does This Pose Make Me Look Fat?

Not REALLY a serious question!

Okay so I am looking for cool shopping places to visit... and I find KUSTOM9 on the destination guide, apparently there are quite a few more of these shopping events with different numbers on the end of them.  So now I have even MORE places to spend my lindens *sigh* Retail therapy IS cheaper than a trip to the shrink so shop it is! KUSTOM9 has some really cute things I must say.  

While strolling around there I found some new hair (imagine that) and some REALLY awesome poses by IMEKA.  Once I tried them out I simply had to purchase them.  Eight super cute poses makes me want to visit their mainstore now!  When I see merchandise at fairs and events it makes me want to visit the granddaddy store so I can find even more things I cannot do without!  

I am wearing:  Skin by Belleza, Hair by Exile (Full of Secrets), Dress by Sweet Temptations (Let's Dance), and system avatar body with Slink hands and feet. 

Let Me Introduce Myself!

Welcome One and All to my Fashion Blog!

It's a pleasure to introduce myself to you and thank you for stopping by to check out my blog.  My name is Rhia and I LOVE FASHION!  Ever since I was a teenager I have followed fashion, via magazines and television, and even though I have not worn any six inch stiletto's in RL lately... I HAVE worn them in Second Life!  In fact I've worn some of the most beautiful designs ever created right here in this amazing virtual world.  Everything about fashion inspires me, transforms me, and dazzles me on a daily basis here in Second Life.  I hope to share some of my thoughts and musings about fashion with you here.  Stop by often because I will be updating this blog several times a week!
