Summer Harvest Hunt

Hi folks!  Trying to get my blog on with a quickie post about The Ego Co.’s latest hunt, the Summer Harvest Hunt.  The hunt runs from September 1 – 21 and features items that hope to invoke a feeling of cooler, lazy days before autumn ushers in the crisp bite of the winter months.  The poses, pants and jewelry are all hunt gifts.

Culture Shock – Chinese Edition

Hello kiddies.

Culture Shock 2011 is about half over.  Have you been there yet?  No?  Go, check out the exclusive donation items at the event that are benefiting Doctors Without Borders.

It has taken me wayyy too long to get this spectacular dress out to you all and it’s still not a very good showing, but my computer, SL and GIMP are all conspiring against me lately.  So I don’t have style credits at the moment and the editing is lackluster, but I HAD to get Agnes Finney’s Culture Shock Empress Dress blogged for you to see.  Swing by My Precious at the event and grab this and many other stunning designs.

52 Weeks of Color – Periwinkle

Periwinkle was not an easy color.  I didn’t have anything in my inventory that suited the version of blue that I had in my head.  Then I would have loved to put something together that would be a fitting tribute to a poem written about me, but I couldn’t do that justice either.  So I went with simple instead.

And let’s not forget to mention Culture Shock.  The Exile hair I’m wearing is one of the exclusive items that Doctors Without Borders will receive proceeds from.  I picked up this sweet little sundress there too (but I’m honestly not sure if it’s new for the event or if you can pick it up at the store, sorry).

I’ve been feeling pretty faded lately, and I think Chloe’s looking a little sad and vulnerable in the pic, so I guess it is a bit of a tribute to the poem:

I always preferred

midnight to navy in a box of sixty-four.

She chose periwinkle, powder, cornflower,

her colors pale and fading.

Tiny Goddess

I’m a little late in getting this blogged (sorry Agnes!), but I was lucky enough to get my little pixelated paws on the (fairly) new Athena dress from My Precious.  In addition to the white, frothy dress featured here, I also took a look at the red and black version.  It was a wonderful contrast between the two looks, with one version of the goddess innocent and weightless and the other sultry and intense.

I tend to dress Chloe the same way I dress in RL- casual.  When I do have an occasion (read: blog post) to dress up, I feel a bit doll-like.  You know those oversized dolls with the porcelin faces and silken hair?  Put up on the high shelf so she doesn’t get broken when someone accidentally plays with her?  Okay, this connection made sense in my head, but now…  Well, anyway, my non-linear though process took me to being a pretty princess dancer put up on a pedestal, which took me to a pretty princess dancer in the jewelry box.

For whatever reason, I can’t read the name of this Exposeur prop, “Lady Dancer Music Box,” without Elton John’s Tiny Dancer popping into my head, so that’s what I’m telepathically planting in yours as well.

52 Weeks of Color – Sienna

Sienna turned out to be another toughie.  I had a hard time finding things in my inventory that had the reddish hue I was looking for.  But I am wearing a gorgeous skin from !imabee that put me in a sienna mood.  Brandon Papp was generous enough put this skin out for the With Love From… Hunt and I absolutely love it.  I don’t usually wear skins this dark, but I’ll definitely keep this on for a few days.  And you can’t really see it, but I’m actually wearing a great dress from Glam Affair that i received as part of my Secret Santa gift.  Thanks again, Santa!  MWAH!
