Vintage Tangerine - 52 weeks of Colour

From Suede Design Studio

I am so behind with the 52 weeks of colour, that I have all but given up, but sometimes the colour of the week reminds me of a great dress I have not worn in months, even years.

I decided to go all vintage with this post, all of the items pictured are at least 2 years old maybe more, but you know all of the items still look nice, of course advances have been made so that clothing moves better when you move, but even so, for a still shot, this dress in my mind still has what it takes.

Naughty Bunny PJams

From Suede Design Studio

I received a lot of Easter stuff, unfortunately due to my rl work I have not had the time to be online and blog it all yet, and Easter is gone, the rabbits have hopped, the lambs have skipped, the chicks have cheeped and the chocolate has made you little cousin, sugar crazy, but I still gonna blog it anyhow cause it is cute.

From Suede Design Studio

I really liked this outfit with the little bunny tail and ears, it also came with a skin, but I preferred to stick with my own look, I also loved the big fluffy boots which came with it, I have definitely been living in California too long, where shorts and big fluffy boots, just look normal to me now LMAO.

The Dressing Rooms

From Suede Design Studio

I go to the Dressing Rooms, every time they change stock and I am always very pleased by the items they have, this time though, it was as if they all had been talking and planned this outfit together. It is a mix of the items available in both rooms this week.

The skin is wonderful as always and I dont have any skins with a shiny lipgloss or in tan for that matter, I tend to go lighter, the big hat with the hair is so great for summer, I actually re-coloured it to match the clothes a little better, and the boots I have had in my inventory for a while, but I thought I would make a fun match with my glitter clothes to shake it up a bit.

Paint from GCD

From Suede Design Studio

I received this great outfit from GCD the other day, being the artist I am I cant imagine anything more fun, than hanging around the studio in my paint spattered jeans, Jackson Pollock , Andy Warhol, move on over.

So the jeans come in several fits, including a boot cut which I am showing you here, the crotchet top is size scripted so you can make it fit just right. I am also wearing Boots from Miel and Hair from Red Mint and I added a belt and keychain.. thingymeeebobbie..

Yellow

From Suede Design Studio

Yellow is a colour I never wear in second life or in real life, although I have picked up a soft pastel sweater every so often, but I always put it back on the shelf.

But on my tour of the Japanese stores people have been recommending to me, this 1960's boho dress just called out to me. I had a little day dream of driving my little moped around the streets of Milan , calling out to friends sitting in the sunshine in open air cafes as I drive by, but as you can see, my little moped is *Kaput* dammit.

From Suede Design Studio

Here I am trying to fiddle with the .. whateverbit this is.* or maybe I am trying to hotwire it cause it is'nt really mine... hehe

From Suede Design Studio

I am also wearing my new fav shoes even though I know they have been out for a while, Moxie from Maitreya, I just love colour change, and I like socks in high heels.

So anyway I gave up trying to get my moped to go and just sat on the pannier and sulked.

On The Road

From Suede Design Studio

What is the feeling when you're driving away from people, and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? -it's the too huge world vaulting us, and it's good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.””

Jack Kerouac

So here is my venture to the no-man's land of *Guy* land. I have on a great skin from Red Mint and a great T-shirt with a unusual skull print, I love the odd eyes on the skull,actually there are a series of Skull tshirts in Red Mint, all pretty cool, some skulls are definitely not human.

Also there is a male skin line, I really was impressed by the work on the body, I don't think it is easy to make realistic hairy guys, some avatars are sporting a rug on their bodies, but not my *Guy* no he is cool and sexy with just the right amount of testosterone. I really think more men might find this skin a good alternative to the bigger brands.

I also played around with my location a bit and decided on Tableau, which is very cool and fits totally with my Kerouac theme.

The ZED Card - Dreams Requiem

From Suede Design Studio

I saw this amazing avatar and just had to take a photo or two.
Dreams told me that her incredible outfit was from Bare Rose of all places and her face paint and hair was made by herself.

I am sure you agree she looks excellent.

From Suede Design Studio

It is such a visual feast I don't really have much to say apart from click on the photo to make it big, so you can see how complex and incredible her outfit was.

Tabitha from Has Been

From Suede Design Studio

Okay I have to be honest, here, I have no idea when I was sent this dress, I love receiving things to blog, but my inventory is a bit of mess I try to get everything into a folder I made called

* thingstoblog*

But sometimes I miss things, well anyway I found it now and I was very pleased with the beautiful colours and the whole look of the dress and the cute garters, the skirt is 3 layers of prims, very nicely done, dark purple and black semi-transparent lace, give a very rich effect and the detail on the bodice with the laces and contrasting patterned little waistcoat is just divine.

From Suede Design Studio

This dress is perfect for role play, I was thinking with a great hat and some boots, I could have done a wicked Pirate Queen Post., maybe for next time.

Here I am waiting for my love Sam the Sailor to come back from 40 days and 40 nights at sea and bring me... a Fillet'O'Fish. Which reminds me on British TV back when I was a nipper, I used to watch Captain Pugwash..look him up on Youtube.. he has an interesting crew.. giggles.

Hair from Cake - Bitten

I decided to try out the only skin I bought at the skin fair with a variety of hair colours, as you can see the result is pretty good, Meggan blends very nicely with my LAQ hairbase and eyebrows, and looks really good with any hair colour. This is the only skin I have with teeth showing, I wasn't really sure but I think it does look good, so I am pleased with the end result.

Indie Rose.. Boho Chiffon

From Suede Design Studio

I went to see a store that was featured on the feeds and whilst I was there, I wandered around the sim and found this cute shop, **Indie Rose** the designer is called Angelina Eizenberg-Oxhall Anyway back to the store which did a few things I just adored the first one is this chiffon Boho dress, I bought it in black from the store and went away and then found the cream version in a special section on the sim, for only 50L so I went ahead and bought that as well.

I am showing you both versions here with a little help from my friend photoshop.
I think the top alone will also cool really nice with jeans and I have a long plain skirt in white which I am thinking would make a hip Hippie* look for the summer.

I did have to adjust the prims on the skirt to fit me.. big bum.. .and but it was pretty painless.

Sapphire Marilyn From Purple Moon

From Suede Design Studio

New release from Purple Moon * Marilyn* is this incredible dress with a shaped sculpted skirt, I am showing it to you in this wonderful sapphire blue. It has a banded bodice, with a pearl insert pattern and a lovely rose which sits on your hip. I really liked the subtle silky insert just at the top of the bodice, it is these small touches which always add to the gown.

From Suede Design Studio

The skirt is so incredible, the texture is beautiful it catches the light, and looks wonderful from every angle. The high slit in the skirt shows off those picture perfect legs, and is very sexy.
The skirt is very long and you can see from these photos, it trails behind you beautifully.

The Truth in the Carousel

From Suede Design Studio

I went wandering around 'Oh my Stars' on Bill,it's really a great sim with lots of funky little shops. So here are my photos, new hair from truth, current outfits from The Dressing Room Blue and Boots from Marketplace and a homemade bag.

From Suede Design Studio

I found this beautiful wooden carousel behind the stores and took a couple of shots on it, the horses were really well done and it was fun to take a ride on a pony, haven't been to the fair in a 1000 years in RL. ( always loved it as a child)

Self Made Man

From Suede Design Studio

I noticed that quite a few bloggers have a male alt, and/or male shape that they use to showcase male clothes, or to be an extra player in their photos. I really thought about it for a while and decided I wanted to play along as well.

I knew the look I wanted, I wanted to model My *Man* on British Model Will Chalker, There are not many Blonde or Ginger men in Second Life, I thought it would make a nice change. The perfect skin for the job was Johan from Belleza, but for the shape, now that will make or break my avatar.

So here are my choices

Will Made by Fantishee Jewel ( sorry got him with one eye closed)

For my mind, Fanti's shape wins hands down.. it really has the facial structure of Will, pity I cant take a decent picture.sighs!

Stay tuned for more Guy on the blog.. very very soon..
