Here Kitty Kitty

Gabby Panacek — Sun, 13 Jun 2010 03:38:03 +0000

I was feeling just a little frisky, so I decided to try on the Little Glitter Dress from caLLie cLine.

The dress comes on all layers and, as the edges are completely finished, you can leave off the skirt prim and wear it as a cute little hotpants romper. I decided to keep the prim on, but moved it to the pelvis attachment point so that I could wear the PN CC Tail Extreme, made by Obyri Nightfire in collaboration with caLLie cLine. The tail is accented with a diamond ring, made by Callie, that matches Callie’s Rock Diamond Bangle. The tail is scripted with movement and emotes, so it is a lot of fun to play with. And don’t forget the ears! They are edged in diamonds to complete the glitzy kitty look.

Also Wearing:
Shoes: Kookie City Wedges in Nudes
Hair: Truth Peyton in Espresso Streaked
Skin: Exodi Orchid (Lily v2) Friday (to be released)
Poses: Glitterati

New Stuff! 5th & Oxford and [Gos]

Gabby Panacek — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 00:53:28 +0000

Roslin was kind enough to pass me a sneak peek at the upcoming release from 5 th & Oxford, the Jori Blouse and Skirt.

Each piece will be available in eight spring-like colors that coordinate together beautifully, here I’m wearing the blouse in Egg Blue, the waist band from the Coral skirt, and the skirt prim in Twig. The ensemble is sweet and playful with a buttoned and ruffled neckline and a not-too-full, not-too-short skirt. Watch for this release soon!

I’m also addicted to my most recent find at Accessory Fair 2010, the Intuition Glasses from Gos Custom Eyewear. You can personalize them by adding your initials to the arms, change the lens tint and opacity, and if the four included frame colors (Black, White, Chrome and Tortoise Shell) are not enough for you, you can purchase additional colors in the form of really clever cans of spray paint.

That’s all for now, see below for a list of everything you should add to your shopping list.

Style Notes:
Blouse & Skirt – Jori by 5th & Oxford *coming soon*
Shoes – Chic Heels by Kookie in Creamy Latte
Ring – Raga Oyster Ring by Zaara in Paua (gold)
Eyewear – Intuition by Gos in Tortoise Shell
Hair – Soma by lamb in Butter
Skin – Stephanie by Exodi in Panacek 5
Eyes – Vetro by Exodi in Blue

Day 3: LOTD – From Where I Sit

Gabby Panacek — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 02:35:39 +0000

From my seat by the window, I can look out across the water at the two floating lotus that Eshi Otawara created for Night Flower. What a gorgeous view to log in to each day, right?

Saiyge Lotus is doing most of the heavy lifting as we redesign the sim – the woman is amazing when it comes to sim design, terraforming and landscaping, and I’m not exaggerating even a little bit! Have you visited Oubliette? If not, you need to! And while you’re there, visit her store, Balderdash, where she turns tiny prims into works of wearable art…among other things.

So, even though I can do little more than move some pixel furniture back and forth while I bounce around watching Saiyge work her magic, I’m keeping my look comfortable. I paired a long sweater with some leggings and simple shoes. To ramp up the warmth factor, I snuggled into some fingerless gloves and legwarmers to complete the look.

Now, I’m heading back to the sim to rummage my inventory for more furniture. Feel free to drop in for a visit!

Style Notes:
Sweater: Luck, Inc. Sweaterdress in Pale Silver
Leggings: Kookie Ladybug Leggings in Grey
Gloves: Fri.day Fingerless Gloves in Charcoal
Legwarmers: Cubic Effect Leg Warmers in Grey
Shoes: Zero Number Petanko Cross in Binchoutan
Hair: Kookie Chiggy (beta) in Blonde
Skin: Exodi Lily in Panacek
Eyes: Exodi Vetro in Blue
Lashes: Beauty by Calla

Some people may choose to ring in the new year, but I prefer to Rock!

There is also a coordinating home furnishings collection with wall and floor textures, two record mobiles and a sofa in two colors. As usual, Roslin Petion and CJ Carnot haven’t left a single detail to chance in creating these items. One of my New Year’s resolutions is to rebuild my home on Night Flower and you can be sure that I will find a place for all of these pieces!

I See The Moon & The Moon Sees Me

Gabby Panacek — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 16:54:21 +0000

I’ve recently become reacquainted with Moonshine. No, I haven’t taken to distilling my own liquor, but I have rediscovered my fondness for Shelly Toonie’s designs. I have an alt (shhh…don’t tell) whose inventory consists predominantly of Moonshine clothing, yet I have only a few pieces on my main account. So, I was delighted when Shelly, a relatively new friend thanks to plurk, offered me her new Fleur Smock to feature here.(...)

It’s My Party & I’ll Fly If I Want To

Gabby Panacek — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 01:04:42 +0000

You know what tonight is, right? It’s the Thursday Night Dance Party at Rouge! Presided over by DJ extraordinnaire, Nexeus Fatale. But tonight has a little twist. It’s my RL birthday week so I’ve turned the TNDP into my Birthday Party!

Butterflies seem to be my new obsession and I’ve gone a bit overboard with the butterfly-themed accessories in my party attire.

It all started with Canimal‘s Skellyflies, then came the KaWaii butterfly necklace and ring from Fishy Strawberry, Ryker Beck‘s gorgeous Monarch tattoos and, well, at that point, choosing the outfit was almost secondary. I was just trying to find something to match all of the fluttering wings floating about! Oh! And check the shoes from Kookie. They were only 50L and a perfect compliment to DeLa‘s Leona dress.

I hope you’ll come dance with us tonight from 7-9pm SLT. Just take the taxi and enjoy the ride!

Style Notes:
Jacket – DeLa – Short Jacket “Bette” – Teal
Dress – DeLa – Dress “Leona” – Fuschia
Shoes – Kookie – Kat Platforms (Pink)
Earrings – Genesis – Annah Hoop Earrings
Butterflies (hair) – Canimal Skellyflies
Ring – Fishy Strawberry – KaWaii Jelly Butterfly Ring (blue)
Necklace – Fishy Strawberry – KaWaii Jelly Butterfly Necklace (pink)
Tattoos – Genesis – The Monarchy Tattoos
Hair – booN – TOM14 Hair – Black
Eyes – Genesis – Zbilja Eyes (Blue)
Skin – Genesis – Eden Nutmeg – Rockstar
Poses – TorridWear

New Release: Tiny Dancer

Gabby Panacek — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 03:58:41 +0000

Rosie Barthelmess has been a very good friend for quite some time and not too terribly long ago she launched her own jewelry line, Sable Rose. Tiny Dancer is the latest release from Sable Rose and is a delicate web of interlocking circles. When I tried it on, I loved the way it complimented the outfit I was wearing, so I knew I had to take a few pictures to share. Rosie makes some beautiful and interesting pieces, each new release demonstrates how her talent and aptitude for jewelry making is growing by leaps and bounds. Often, her pieces are infused with a personal touch and are inspired by her close and eclectic circle of friends. I do hope you will take a few moments to stop in Rosie’s boutique, I know you will find something (or several somethings) that will suit you as perfectly as Tiny Dancer suits me.
