ISSUE # 16 FEBRUARY 2011

"ROXANE" by ENTRE MARES

This will be my first time to review an Entre Mares gown. Eventhough, I have been wearing entre mares since I have become fashionable this will be my first to go into detail and it is really indeed both my privilege and honor to review a design for someone who is already a pillar in the fashion industry.

Of the two new releases Roxane struck me most because of its fine details.

The combination of flower and lace on the shoulder makes me recall my childhood days. Children love looking like a fairy princess and thats how I felt when I put on this gown.

The bodice on the other hand makes you feel more like a woman with its bare back and see-through front. The two-toned flowers(in pink and lilac) covering only the parts that needed to be covered will never fail to catch attention.

The skirt is layered delicately with the front exposing the knees and portion of the upper thigh and the back balloons ankle length making it more sexy. The fabric is made of pink silk texture.

My photographer friend Eilonweeh Grantly helped me in taking this pic as I am not so good in photography and I believe that when you review premium items it goes without saying that the pics should justify the dress.

I am not paid to blog. I am offered to review items but I am very choosy on what items to review because I dont want to endorse items that I cannot give my word for it. I am not like the rest who just write for the sake of writing. My post may be very seldom simply because I choose what to post.

This gown is worth it.

STYLE CARD:
Outfit: Entre Mares "Roxane"
Hair: ETD Torwen in Tawny
Shoes: KALNINS Yolanda
Skin: eSTYLE X5 London
Jewelry: JCNY

Im BLESSED with BEAUTIFUL SKINS

I missed staying on SL for almost a month now. Logging only once in a while for important matters related to the magazine. I even missed my own show. I have been busy and at the same time sick BUT when I received this message on my cellphone I can't help but find time to log in. The message states: INVENTORY OFFER FROM DRAGOS JANUS..I surmissed it was his new AD, but as I read through the message it reads.."eStyle X5 skins" and i was so excited. I have missed Dragos for sometime but he always surprises me when he comes back with his new creations. The last time I presented you Exquisite X3 Skin from eStyle particularly Barcelona my favorite which is among the first release of the equisite line the rest are MANILA, VENICE, ATHENS and PARIS.

I am so proud to present to you another wonderful creation..and I'm so glad im one of the priviledged and trusted few by Dragos to review this new X5 line.

First I will show you the rest of the FIRST CREATION then the NEW CREATION in CATALOGS then I will wear the skin and will tell you whats new as we go along. Let us start with MANILA

then VENICE

and ATHENS

and lastly, PARIS.

NOW...check the new skinline and envy me for possessing all these types of skin :P

VIENNA


LONDON


DIAMOND(my new favorite)


Now, allow me to wear the DIAMOND SKIN the one which puzzles me most among the X5 line because it is the only one not named after a CAPITAL CITY :)

When you buy a fatpack, which is more reasonable you get:
-2 skin types: the fair and the tan
-24 different make ups
-all 24 make ups comes in 3 varieties, like for example DIAMOND makeup 1 which is a nude one comes as DIAMOND 1, DIAMOND 1-freckles, DIAMOND 1-cleavage so you get a total of -24 x 3 choices which is superb
-hairbase tattoos
-an eyebrow
-and a shape

let me open and wear my package :)

this one is the regular skin with no cleavage enhancement


and this one is with cleavage enhancement


then the freckled skin:


and the non freckled skin make-up #1


and some of the make ups:
nude lipstick

pink lipstick

green eye shadow

orange lipstick

red lipstick


Now let me try the other skins
The pics below are from the LONDON FAIR LINE



and the remaining 3 PICS are from the VIENNA TAN LINE




STYLE CARD:
Hair used in the Diamond Line: TRUTH Tamina Mocha
Hair used in the London and Vienna Line: ETD
Swimwear: DMG Creations- Reign(red)
Shoes: Kalnins- Yolanda
Necklace: Courtesy of That's Amore( exclusive for VIP members)
Ring: JCNY

Agnes Finney: Queen Melissa 1

When I first saw Agnes Finney's new release called Queen Melissa I immediately fell in love with it, simply because I like a color that belongs to the family of brown.
Ms. Finney came up with 3 variations of Queen Melissa. The first one and which I decided to blog is a formal gown. The chest is made up of intricate lace in beige/eckro. The nude tone complements the assets of a woman.
It is accentuated by a butterfly studded satin bodice continuous with the satin pants.

The skirt is made up of a delicate chiffon-like fabric with a sensual slit running from the hips down.The hem of the skirt was made classy by the gold lace embroidery. The gown comes with a pair of black gloves to complete the formal look. I think I need a crown for aperfect Queen look.

I styled it with an asymmetrical blonde bob to complement the color of the gown. Others would usually wear an updo but it really depends on the occassion. This time I chose to be different.

STYLE CREDITS:
Outfit: Queen Melissa 1 by Agnes Finney
Hair: Asymmetrical Blonde Bob from Colors and Shapes
Necklace and Earings: JCNY Morticia Collection
Ring: JCNY Rose Ring a gift from Homens Pinelli
Shoes: Yolanda by Kalnins
Skin: Barcelona by E-Style
Shape: FleurVivant modified
MODEL AND PHOTOGRAPHER: Docseree Mistwalker
=================================================================
I would like to post here the other two Queen Melissa Creations( Photos courtesy of Ms. Finney) Queen Melissa 2 which differs from Queen Melissa 1 with an addition of a black fur stole and a lace twist on the skirt. The bodice and pants are the same.


Queen Melissa 3 which is more of a smart casual/cocktail dress comes with a pencil cut black satin skirt.Remove the gloves and it will fit into a corporate attire.

Queen Melissa Collection is indeed a versatile creation!

and together with this New Release are two hairstyles that would be a perfect match for the gown.
