Modiva Fashion Week with The Secret Store

Modiva Fashion Week is an event on most bloggers calenders that can not be missed.  Some of the top designers in Second Life coming together to put on a spectacular show of new and stunning pieces for our enjoyment.  One of the collections I was most looking forward to was of course the amazing offerings from Miss Maylee Oh of The Secret Store.  It will come as no surprise to anyone who reads my blog that any day The Secret Store releases new goodies I'm thrilled, but to release a whole new collection of pure fabulousness... it was like all my Christmases had come at once.    I could gush on for pages about how much I adore all the new pieces on offer, but really nothing I can say will do it justice, so i will simply say Maylee never disappoints and this has never been more true than with her new collection!  Bright, colourful, mix and match and exquisitely crafted new clothes await you, so grab your taxi and check it out!

In another equally important new, Dutch Touch is having a skin sale and pretty much everything is marked down which of course means, it's time to stock up!  No end date has been advertised for the sale, but i would recommend getting there in the next couple of days if you can.

Baggage Claim

This outfit is completely inpired by That 70's Show, largely because I spent most of the week watching a bit of a marathon of it that was running, so here you go, my ode to the 70's!

There isn't too much newness in this post with the exception of this stunning new skin from Glam Affair.  Anyonewho knows me, knows how much I love Aida's skins but Gio completely flawed me, she is sooooo purrrdy!



Don't you agree?

Don't stop 'til it feels right

Hi, how are you all doing?!  Yes, i know this photo is very bright, but i've been having an absolute hell of a time with viewers black screening me, so in the end, I had to pick the best of a bad bunch of shots, hopefully they aren't too awful.  Either way don't let my cruddy photo taking ability sway you from checking out all the yumminess there is.

This dress Maylee Oh released for The Dressing Room last cycle (yes i know, I'm late... sorry!) but it should be available in her shop, if not now, then very soon.  The dress itself does also come with a beautiful big flouncy blue bow and belt, that I am not wearing in this shot, but it screams fun and is so versatile!

The skin I'm wearing is a new release from Apple May Designs that goes by the name of Kat.  I first stumbled across AMD at Pure Juice earlier this year and I have to say whilst that skin was cute, Apple May skins are improving more and more with each release.  There is a sweetness about AMD skins, and I haven't seen too many shapes they don't work on!

Last but not least, I have to totally admit I stole this bag from a blog Harlow Heslop did earlier this week, so thank you Harlow!  The bag is gorgeous and the detail is AMA-ZING!  The bag is mesh, so if you haven't upgraded your viewer yet you won't be able to see it in world.  But upgrading to a mesh capable viewer is worth it, even if it is to just get this bag!
