I wish this post was more organized. But, I kind of freaked, since I wanted to get as much Arcade goodness into a cool and elaborate post before it ends. Elaborate yes, cool no. Amazing, absolutely! Well, I am not amazing, but all the creators are. I am still in awe of all their brilliant creations. I know this is rush job, but I hope you see some more goodies that you simply MUST have before The Arcade ends at 11:59pm tonight!

The Last Couple of Days Before Arcade Ends....

Sadly, this round of The Arcade is coming to an end. I can't tell you how much I adore all the amazing creations The Arcade designers made for this round. It is practically overwhelming. The following look that I am going to show you is mostly made-up of brilliant Arcade exclusives! Except, of course, for the new 'Patent Leather Slingbacks', which were created by Jin Elfan of Belgravia. They were just too fabulous not to include. Oh! And also the new TDR Fusion items from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. So, RUN! And get your butts to The Arcade, just in case you missed some of these awesome goods!

Ice Cream and Sunshine

I'm sorry that I have not been around much, but I have been away with limited internet access. Not to mention that my laptop has been dying. Anyway, let me make this post quick. LOL. There have been so many releases for Summer and all the SL events this Season. One of favorite new releases is this gorgeous 'Hina Maxi Dress' from Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice. This is the quintessential Summer maxi dress, which is FaMESHed exclusive this month. It comes in ton of cool and yummy colors too, so be sure to grab it!

Baiastice_Hina Maxi dress-light emerald for FaMESHed & -Belleza- Ashley Summerfest SK 2 for Summerfest 13 & what next Sandbridge Ice Cream Cart  - Red

If you notice in the background, I am posing in front of another one of Winter Thorn's (of {what next}) awesome new creations for The Garden. It is the 'Sandbridge Ice Cream Cart'! Just touch it and menu with a plethora of mouth watering ice cream flavors comes up for your virtual enjoyment. Btw, the pier I am parading around on is another Garden exclusive from Barnesworth Anubis. It is called the "Seaside Pier" and can be rezzed as whole pier or you can build it yourself. He gives you all the different parts you will need, as well as different sizes too. It can be as small or as big as you desire! The Garden is one event that home decor enthusiasts definitely can not miss!

Baiastice_Hina Maxi dress-light emerald for FaMESHed & -Belleza- Ashley Summerfest SK 2 for Summerfest 13 & TRUTH HAIR Wanda - Browns01 v5

Summerfest'13 is still going on and there are so many wonderful creators to be found here. -Belleza-  is one of these fabulous creators and they have released the most lovely skin for this event. Her name is "Ashley" and she is a freckle faced Summerfest'13 exclusive. She is available in two beautiful make-ups and all skin tones. You simply must DEMO her now!
Truth Hawks released some more delightful styles for Summer as well. I really adore this long wavy style, called "Wanda". I wish my RL hair stayed this smooth and sleek in the hot and humid weather.

-Belleza- Ashley Summerfest SK 2 & TRUTH HAIR Wanda - Browns01

Ok, I am sure notice that the tone, colors and saturation of my images all vary from one picture to next. I was fooling around with different styles, because I was bored. I hope it is not too confusing, but please make sure you check-out all the colors for yourself. 
Caelan Hancroft is quickly becoming one of my most favorite jewelry designers in SL. Her mesh work and textures are just brilliant! I am always so excited to see what she comes up with next! For this post, I am wearing her 'Kasbah' necklace, cuff and rings. One of the things I like best about Caelan's jewels, besides their obvious quality, is that they are texture-change via pop-up menu. This makes it possible to style her creations with just about anything! 'Kasbah' is FaMESHed exclusive this month, so be sure to grab it! 
Oh, one more thing. I am still wearing Ikon Innovia's (aka IKON) new 'Ascension Eyes'. As you can see, they are absolutely stunning! The color I am wearing for this post is called "Ghost". Be sure to try on demos ASAP! With that said, here are your LMs and credits:

Aiko Aiko

Even though the theme for this month's Collabor88 is 'Chill Pill', which is mostly 90's retro (love this theme!), I actually found some soft and romantic Collabor88 exclusives for this post.

C88 June Glam Affair - Margot - Petal 02 - Blonde  & LaGyo_Aiko headpiece

For the last three cycles of Collabor88, aida Ewing of -Glam Affair- has been releasing her 'Margot' skin line in different skin tones each month. For June's Collabor88, she released  'Margot' in her beautiful and delicate 'petal' tone. All the make-ups are so lovely and subtle. So, I could not resist doing a portrait of this gorgeous skin. 
Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo, created a unique an fabulous jewelry line called "Aiko" for this cycle of Collabor88. Each piece is in the shape of an eternity symbol and adorned with tiny beads. She created a whole a collection that includes a headpiece, earrings, a necklace, a bangle and a ring. Each item comes with a HUD that changes the texture the of the metal, as well as the beads. Please make sure you check out both items from -Glam Affair- and LaGyo at Collabor88 NOW!
As I mentioned in my previous post, Ikon Innovia just released more stunning new eyes. They are called  "Ascension Eyes" and are absolutely STUNNING! I am wearing the "Deamon" color for this post. So, please make sure you try on a demo ASAP!

I Wake-Up In The Morning To The Beat Of A Drum...

The Summer Solstice has arrived and Summer is now officially here. Because of all this, I have not been around much this week. I was really only able to log in temporarily to check NCs and messages. So, suffice it to say, I have A LOT of catching-up to do! Not to mention more events to blog too! It is really hot and I am super tired, so I will try to keep it brief. However, I am so in love with all of these new releases that are in this post! First off, I know you have seen these new creations from Azure Electricteeth of Tee*fy all over the feeds! They are Arcade Gacha Event exclusives and have an amazing native/bohemian feel to them. In this post, I am wearing her 'Aurelia Summer High-Low Dress', 'Feather Crown Headband' and 'Leather-Made Goat Head  Backpack'. These are all items that can be won in many colors and styles via The Arcade gacha machines. This is one machine worth playing! Azure's creations are always brilliant!

Arcade - Tee*fy

I have been dying for Jin Elfan of Leverocci to release more hair. She said she was not planning on doing so, but she ended up releasing this absolutely stunning new style called 'DIVA'. The name definitely suits the hair. It is long, super straight and gorgeous. It is all rigged mesh and I am positive that she baked the hair textures, since they are unbelievably realistic and perfect! 'DIVA' comes in every color imaginable and is also available on Marketplace. So DEMO it NOW!

Tee*fy Aurelia Summer High-Low Dress Black Tie Dye &  Feather Crown Headband RARE for The Arcade and Leverocci - Diva_Golden Brown

aida Ewing just released a beautiful new skin, called "Summer". It is a Summerfest '13 exclusive and comes in several lovely make-ups and in 2 skins tones - America and Jamaica. I sincerely hope aida releases a whole a line of this skin, since it is simply divine. I strongly urge you to check-out Summerfest '13 now and try on some demos ASAP. 
Oh! I almost forgot! Ikon Innovia just releases more awesome eyes! They are called 'Ascension Eyes' and are basically a continuation of his 'Destiny Eyes', which were available at the 'The Boutique'.I am in love with  these eyes and he created 15 new colors to add to the collection. So, make sure you go to the IKON ainstore and try some on!

Lavender

I guess this is pretty much a 'Look of The Day' type post. It is mix of amazing new releases and some fabulous not-so-new releases. The main inspiration for this post, is this gorgeous 'Formal Blazer' from the uber talented Jin Elfan of Belgravia/Leverocci. It is a fairly recent release and also an updated version of her former 'Sleek Blazer', which is sadly no longer available for sale. As always, Jin's textures are perfectly rendered and portray a huge amount of realism. The 'Formal Blazer' is an inventory MUST have! Speaking of Belgravia MUST haves, I am also wearing Jin's sublime 'Patent 120' pumps, which I have already written about in previous posts. Not only are these shoes beautiful, but they are made to be worn with Siddean Munro's (of Slink) rigged mesh feet in 'medium' height. It goes without saying that these are two more items that your SL wardrobe can NOT be with out!

Belgraiva and Belleza Mya WCF

One of my favorite things about classic blazers, is that they can be worn in so many ways. They can be worn with more classic and formal attire, or you can play them down with jeans and shorts. I obviously chose the latter. I have a tendency to show more formal looks, so I wanted wear something more casual. I decided to pair the blazer with these charming belted denim 'Scallop Shorts' from Toast Bard of (fashionably dead). I had been meaning to blog these amazing shorts for so time now. Toast is another one of SL's texturing geniuses, who makes the most stunningly hip clothes. The shorts were a Collabor88 exclusive a couple of months ago, but I am almost positive they are available her in mainstore by now. Please do yourself a favor and check-out all of her delightful creations.

Belgraiva- Belleza Mya WCF & Vanity Hair

I needed a top to complete my ensemble. As most of you know, I have a rather large inventory...to say the least! Sooo, I dove in frantically and tried on as many different styles as I could think of. I finally decided I wanted a bustier-like top. I had found this fantastic 'Dash Cropped Chain Bustier' from the talented Dakota Buck of Whippet & Buck. I had no idea I had even had these amazing bustiers in my inventory. Suffice it say, I could not resist putting them! Dakota Buck and Twiggy Whippet are two extremely brilliant creators and have played a huge part in SL fashion. I had not heard much news from them, as far as new releases go. So, I had to check to see if they were still selling their content. I am almost positive they are and sincerely hope they release some new items too!

-Belleza- Mya MED WCF & Vanity Hair -Vendetta-Brown

It is time again for another round of the 'Whore Couture Fair'. For this month, Shyla Diggs of -Belleza-, created a lovely and exclusive edition of 'Mya' for this event. She is available in all skin tones and just so pretty to look at. Please make sure you grab a demo!
I also chose to wear this alluring hair style from Tabata Jewell of Vanity Hair, called 'Vendetta'. I simply adore the coy and sexy side-part that partially covers one eye. It added just the right amount of innocent sensuality to my look.
Oh! I almost forgot the namesake of my whole post! Adorkable Peapod of Adorkable Poses, made these beautiful and clever poses for The Arcade. They are are called 'Gacha Blooms' and feature one of my all time favorite flowers as a prop - lavenders. There are ton of different poses that you can win, so make sure you get over to The Arcade to try your luck!

Bad Reputation

The last few days my cable connection has been on and off. I wanted to show another close-up of the new 'Cleo' skin from -Glam Affair- , but time was not on my side. I will probably create one tomorrow and add to my Flickr and this post.
The look for the post was so easy to create. Nevery Lorakeet of*LpD*, created this amazing *Marina* set. It is a full ensemble that includes shorts, a jacket and a top! Usually I like to mix and match different designers, but I really fell love with adorable casual outfit. As always, Nevery's creations are all original and beautifully made. I highly suggest trying them on ASAP!

LpD- Marina Outfit Brown-Black

I mentioned earlier that I wearing the new 'Cleo' skin from the talented aida Ewing of -Glam Affair- . This skin is so fresh and gorgeous. Plus, it comes with every option you can imagine! You get so many different looks for your money, not to mention a lovely face and body! Try on a DEMO NOW!
I also chose to wear Kavar Cleanslate's of ::Exile::, latest release. It is called 'Bad Reputation' and she is fabulously short and wavy. I am also in LOVE with his new HUDs and textures. What more can a girl ask for?

Candy

My allergies have been hitting me in an awful way. So, suffice it to say, my brain is not working too well. This post will probably be short and not as descriptive as usual. Please accept my sincere apologizes.
 Ahhhh! There is so much going on and may events ending either today or tomorrow.
Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice, created the cutest mesh 'Lari' halter tops, as well as these lovely 'Didi' skirts. Both pieces are extremely versatile. They can be worn together or with anything other matching separates in your Spring/ Summer wardrobe. The halters and skirts come in ton of colors and patterns and are a 'Boutique' exclusive. The Boutique will be ending tomorrow (Monday) at 11:59 SLT, so make sure you hurry-up and grab these fab creations before they are gone!

Baiastice_Lari Halter Neck Top and Didi Skirt for TLC and -Belleza- Ava Sk BBB 1

It is the first full weekend of the month, which means it is time for Belleza's Best Buys!!! Tricky Boucher really outdid himself with 3 stunning versions of Ava! She is available in all skin tones and for a VERY nice price. Best Buys ends tonight at 11:59 SLT, so RUN and demo these gorgeous skins!

Baiastice_Lari Halter Neck Top and Didi Skirt for TLC & -Belleza- Ava Sk BBB 1 & TRUTH HAIR Candy - Browns01Fade

Truth Hawks released more amazing new styles this weekend. I am in LOVE with this new long sultry style, called "Candy". Her waves fall so perfectly and seductively.It is a definitely MUST have!
I also wanted to mention that Dave Freeman of Just Designs (aka JD just released some fabulous new shoes for Summer. Besides the beautiful design, the one feature I especially love about the shoes, is that they have a new PERFECT SKIN MATCHING SYSTEM! This means that it has tons of your favorite skin tone presets, which are saved into a database and are retrievable via HUD (like [Gos] and N-core ). It takes only a matter of seconds to match you skin to the feet! So, make sure you check out his new new releases! I am wearing the 'Infra' wedges for this post too.
