oh, that's the right move.

oh, to run in the same circle as alexander and erin. i can't seem to get enough of them. they just can't get anymore cooler. besides myself, who didn't know that alexander was designing a condom? how appropriate for the interviewer to ask him if it had anything to do with his name, ha.

the future hangs over our heads.

Emerging Designers SHOW

Sorry for being late.... but we wanna just to remind you of a fantastic fashion show held in our lovely stage at Best of Italian: Emerging Designers was the name of the show, dedicated to some new names of the italian fashion business in Second Life. And believe me, was another hot event for all the fashionists present.

at a loss for moss.

kate moss being one of my favourite models and ryan mcginley being one of my favourite photographers, it's no wonder that i find these photos to be just near perfection. they're all so dreamy, yet entirely natural. this most definitely has to be one of of my favourite. i really can't explain it in words, but i do believe that the photos speak for themselves.

and if you enjoy this little number by ryan mcginley, i highly suggest that you stop by his website (shown below the photos) ; and listen to sigur ros,'gobbledigook while you view. i posted the video awhile back, and the whole cinematography screams ryan mcginley, i absolutely love it. he does much nude photography, but it is all incredibly tasteful. i'm not sure what my fascination is with nude photography, but i feel that if it is tastefully shot then it could be wonderfully beautiful.

Spring 2009 Fashion Trends. Leather Leggings. HOW TO WEAR LEATHER PANTS (trousers) CORRECTLY.

<
Okay, rent is always a worthy cause, but, to be honest our regrets to liquid latex leggings. If you can swing it, don't neglect an opportunity. No other article of clothing on earth ccould give you the same heady wild-child feel as slipping on a pair of skintight (real) black leather pants.

They suck you up and in, and have the power to transform even the squarest, boring librarian into a sexy Viper Room-trawling, crazy-hot mess. Alexander Wang's paper-thin, curve-huggers from his spring 2009 show are a rock-n-roll fantasy come true and worth every penny.

But the one thing you have to know is that with this fabulous power comes responsibility as well. There are a couple of things to remember: The nature of leather is that it will stretch out. So, if you can wriggle your way into them, buy one size smaller, because they will expand, and there's no getting around that. And find yourself a tailor who can take in leather pants. Before you sit down, pull up the knees, so that you don't have horrible sagging old-lady knees later.

Also, keep the leather supple by buffing it with mink oil and a soft cloth. We are hesitant to issue any sort of rules about how to wear them, but remember, such a statement-making piece of clothing also sort of magnifies whatever you pair it with, If you ever wear them with Converse and you will look like a Ramone. If you wear them with fancy heels, you will look like some renegade socialite attempting to be "downtown".

So try to dress very simply, carefully, and most importantly, in whatever you are the most comfortable in.

NEW LIPSTICK SKINS BY ANGELS SKINS

There are so many skins in SL nowadays that feels like everything that could be done has been done. But I think there is still room for improvement. There is one thing I find particularly irritating in sets of skins. OK, let say I like a skin for its color and detailing, and I like red lips and natural color lips. Most of the times the skin with different lipstick color also comes with a different make-up. The eyes, the cheeks, the entire configuration of the face will make you look completely different. And I just wanted a different lips color!

When I told Sarissa Ho of Angels Skins about this, she immediately came out with a new simple idea. The LIPSTICK SERIES of skins: A skin that comes in a set of 5 different lips color, but identical in all the other details. The first of this innovating skins, REBECCA GOLD, is out on the market now.
