White Nights

Feeling pretty in white last night and wearing the latest goodies from AOHARU WALK Luxury Line, the Long Python Gladiator Heels. We have seen more than a few gladiator boots recently, these python ones by Machang Pichot have a great look to them, and a nice fit which always impresses me. The foot was an easy color change and the realistic buckles and attractive shape make these a desirable look.

Visit AOHARU WALK for some of these.

Also wearing; Rockberry Uma Skin, FOAM Drifter Hair, LeeZu! Blouse and Corset Pants (with Ruffles), LoveSoul Prim Nails, Alyssa Bijou Bracelet.

Who Me?


Well it happens, footwear is dropped on me in folders and some days I get multiple folders, others none at all, so when Adam n Eve creator Damen Gorilla passed me the folder marked 'Adam n Eve Boots - Anessa' I simply assumed he was handing the footwear out to multiple reviewers and had named the folders so he could keep track of his deliveries. It was not until I saw the Fashion Planet feed this morning that it dawned on me that the boots were actually named Anessa (brilliant choice btw), so how could I not walk around in them today all happy-like?

So here they are, a perfectly nice ankle boot with an oversized buckle for the all important fashion forward look (I have it on good authority that these are a RL sensation by a very big name in footwear at the moment, so I would not be surprised to see a few variations popping up). The Adam n Eve boots come in multiple shades of suede with contrast white piping, and great neutral leathers with the added special versions with red/black mixed combinations. (you can click on the image for a super jumbo close-up)

I wore mine with this fantastic new set from Bijou, I just can't stay out of that place! I simply added the multi-strand black pearls from Paper Couture and a favorite bangle from Fresh Baked Goods along with my new hair from TRUTH (on sale now!). I never get tired of that red and black combination.

Be sure and visit Adam n Eve to see the full range of shades for the Anessa Boots!

Thanks for the nod, Damen! :)

StyleCard: REDGRAVE Girls' Biker Boots


Sometimes a girl just needs a change of attitude, and today my attitude was inspired by a song and some great boots. The boots arrived by way of Viola Leigh, the talented little dynamo who is producing footwear at a breakneck rate lately... and don't I love it! The REDGRAVE Girls' Biker Boots are just about my favorite grunged up high heeled boot to date. Well worn leather is as sexy as ever in this well shaped boot, I love the unbuckled and flopped open upper boot with it's fleecy little lining. They are the type of boot you don't want to take off, I assure you, and the early reaction I got when wearing these was huge... a must have boot in the Black or Brown, and tempting in the additional shades; Caramel, Olive, Sand & White. My humble pal Jonny reviewed the men's version here. (click pics for biggie size.)


I styled it up with the new Bijou 'Vain' set, it has a hint of great military style and sculpted short pants under a system skirt/hooded jacket combo. I added my own touches, damaged fishnet stockings from Dutch Touch (part of PuK set), Cachet Gloves, and the Tweed Flat Cap from The Hat Shop. Skin is Redgrave and Hair is Maitreya. All poses are from Oberon's Trick, a great little find. Oh, and the song is this one here, catchy huh?

Get the hawt boots at Redgrave, like now.

StyleCard: COCO


Occasionally I do bonehead things, like the time I messaged COCO Creator Cocoro Lemon to inform her that there was a problem with her sculpties... only to discover the problem was because I had not yet updated my SL viewer. But as soon as I did, I was very impressed by the quality of her work, amazing little ski vests and dresses, I am really a big fan. When I saw the update indicating a footwear release, well, you know I had to run right over and grab a pair of COCO's Suede Booties in blue and the adorable BritGirl Yellow Plaid Suit I had been eyeing for a while.

The Booties are very well crafted and textured, lovely rich suede, and they come in a nice range of equally inviting shades. Nice rounded toes and an over sized buckle on the ankle, I really liked the pop of contrast piping on the edges for extra style. The suit itself can be worn all together as I have done here, or the layers can be worn separately. The prim collar and roll cuffs are, again, very nicely crafted. I added the just released hat/hair from Muism and the Saphyre Gem Ring (not visible) from Paper Couture for a little bit of sparkle.

Check out COCO, you won't regret it!

Skai High


These, the latest from Adam n Eve, called Skai Boots they really get my feet excited for Fall... oh yay, boot weather is coming! Damen Gorilla sent me an peek at these early on, and there was some instant attraction. I am a big fan of the way these are textured, not over the top shininess, but a nice subtle leather sheen to compliment these knee high babies. And you know I love that stylish buckle that give these an almost equestrian edge. The Skai boots come in 8 colors, wearing the black here, but trust me the shades are terrific and well worth a visit to the Adam n Eve shoe department for closer inspection.

Visit Adam n Eve in-world.

I am wearing; Giusia Skin, Cake Hair, Belted Butterfly Top by *CHI*, Pants from Alessa Outfit by Giusia, Bracelets by M.R.M. and Fresh Baked Goods.
