I’m Like A Bird

Lile’s Impression is the soon-to-be-released gown from Phoenix Rising. Designed by Ashoka Eales, the simple black gown, which can be worn with or without the trailing skirt, is adorned with intricate and delicate peacock feathers. I’ve always been fascinated by peacocks, so I don’t think I can possibly tell you how excited I was to try on this dress when Sophia Harlow, the marketing manager for Phoenix Rising, passed it to me.

The gown itself is so gorgeous, I chose to accent with only a few simple accessories: earrings from Puarangi Designs and a bracelet from Armidi. I completed the look by selecting an elegant updo from Truth. For the skin, I wanted smokey eyes so I chose Poker Face from Exodi’s new Sienna line.

Designed for the Phoenix Rising “Model Of The Month” winner, Lile’s Impression will be released very soon. In the meantime, visit the store to find a whole range of closet essentials.

Listening to: Nelly Furtado

Challenge: Armoire Diversity – Take 1

Gabby Panacek — Tue, 23 Dec 2008 06:58:06 +0000

Ana Lutetia suggested this fantastic challenge on her blog, and I’ve been shopping for a couple of weeks to pull everything together for the looks I wanted to create. Needless to say, each shopping excursion ended up changing my focus a little bit. I knew, however, that if I procrastinated any longer, I’d never get started on this challenge. So lets go over the rules, shall we? From Ana’s blog:

So, the armoire diversity challenge is: dress your female avie with male clothing and accessorize it accordingly with the gender or vice-versa (dress your male avie with female clothing). And… show us the looks you have created. I am really looking forward to see the stuff everyone will come up with.

And here is my look:

I started with a great military-style jacket that I just happened to spy when my camera went crazy while I was cruising hair at Gritty Kitty. To make it work on my shape required some editing, the prim work on the front of the jacket alone had to be adjusted prim by prim in order to make it curve around my tatas. But if there is one thing I’ve learned, its to not be afraid of modifying a piece of clothing or hair, as long as its copyable that is. Just make a copy of the item in your inventory before you begin, so you’ll always have the original if you make a mistake. The boots were a L$1 buy I found at Katat0nik some time ago and came in both men’s and women’s sizes, and I picked up the jeans and hair from ShopArmidi.com. My skin, of course, is Fleur Biba again. I swear I obsess over each new makeup Roslin adds to the Allure line. *gets on my knees and begs her to bring Feline into the Allure family soon*

I have another look all cooked up and ready to go, but it will have to wait. In the meantime, any suggestions as to what you’d like to see me in?

Style Sheet:
Jacket – Gritty Kitty Parade Coat
Boots – Katat0nik Axis Mundi Sculpted Boot
Jeans – Armidi Limited – (M) Lowrise Jeans Bleach/Torn [Jet]
Hair – Armidi Hair – The Emo One – Midnight I
Skin – Fleur Allure Truffle Biba 1
Eyes – :: Genesis :: SnowLight Eyes (Special Edition)
