Sea Breeze

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Hello lovely ones! I would like to show off two items from Blueberry today that go nicely together: the Bella Knotted Top and the Lila Rolled Cuff Jeans. The Bella top comes in 29 single colors, as well as a fatpack with those solids plus nine floral patterns and nine metallic colors. The metallics are also available in their own mini-pack.

The Lila jeans come in 14 colors plus a fatpack, with two versions, one a smoother bum look and the other with a bit more crease to your cheeks. What sold me on them, however, was that they work perfectly with boots! I am forever trying to find jeans that play nice with boots. And these jeans are nearly as good as my standby, the Tali jeans also from Blueberry. Here I have worn my Faith boots again, with Bella in one of the lighter florals and Lila in a nice light jean shade.

Now one other really cool thing about the Lila jeans, if you get the fatpack, it includes a sweater option around your hips. Not only does this sweater come in 29 colors, in solid or with a choice of a couple of cute phrases; or in nine metallic colors; but you also have an option to write your own text on it! So of course I added “Graduate Jazzy, U of Fae” since I am by nature a faerie (you just have not seen it in the blog yet!)

And then the sun starts to set, and thoughts turn to that evening party on the sand, fire pit alight and good friends around…  You think about that special someone who might come and snuggle in your lap in this chair…

Come share my sunset, sweet friends! Cheers!

Comfy Casual

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Hello my lovelies! Today I’d like to show you a wonderfully versatile jacket/dress combo outfit from Adorsy called Natasha. Just the jacket by itself is nicely tailored, with a little hanging belt and trim pieces. On top of that, though, it includes a dress that you can turn on or off, and a pair of panties that can be turned on and off as well.

It comes in seven single colors put it is the fatpack that really shines, with 30 colors for the coat, 40 colors for the dress, 30 colors for the panties/belt/pockets, 40 colors for the collars including 10 fur options, and 5 button options and 2 metals. There is also a loose version included for more flexibility with other clothes.

Here I have the jacket in a dark blue with a lovely flower print for the dress, matched up with a pair of starry leggings from Alaska Metro. The jacket allows separate color selections for the collar, the belt, and the pockets/sleeve trim, though I made them all light blue in this shot.

If you’d like a more upscale city look, here is Natasha with a white jacket and a dark blue dress and trim pieces.

For a lighter look, here I’ve gone with a pale shade for the jacket with an ombre dress selection.

Until next time my sweet friends! Cheers!

A Time for Elegance

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Every now and then a girl needs to dress up a little bit… and with elegant and flowing style. Today I’d like to show you a selection from my gown wardrobe, something for any particular formal event.

Let’s look first at the Bianca gown from FlowerDreams, available in seven colors. It includes top and bottom layers for the popular mesh bodies as well as Omega, and lots of lovely flowy prim bits as well. Perfect for when you’re feeling a little bit of the fairy tale in you!

Now how about those nights when you want to glitter a little bit? Maybe even be a little daring? Then baii maii has just the thing for you in the 218 Glitter Gown with fits for the major mesh bodies. You’ll be hard pressed to know whether onlookers are more dazzled by the flashy dress or by your skin peeking through! Hint: the texture is materials enabled, and if you add a little light to yourself it looks absolutely amazing!

  • Dress: 218 Glitter Gown by baii maii (Marketplace link)
  • Shoes: Astrid Ankle Boots by KC
  • Jewelry: Diamond Lotus Gold Necklace by Exquisite; Butterfly Pink bracelet by Silvery K ; and Moonlight Arm Cuff by Real Evil
  • Hair: Vanilla A and Venezia A by eXxEsS

Looking for something a bit classier? Returning to FlowerDreams we have the Leah gown, also a bit daring but in an elegant way, with top and sides revealing one’s form. A bit of carefully placed hair in case you aren’t *quite* that daring… Leah is also available in seven colors, with appliers for the the major mesh bodies and Omega.

And finally, this week a two-fer: both black and red versions of the same gown, worn by me and my lovely Kie during a formal dance. This is Irina from Utopia, with the amazing detailing that only Utopia can bring. It’s available in seven colors with appliers for the major mesh bodies and Omega. Here the open back makes a nice frame for a detailed phoenix tattoo from U-Design.

That’s it for this round, my sweet friends! Cheers!

Add one more… One more Addams, that is

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Hello dear ones! Today I’d like to feature a few items from Addams, who are right up there on my list of truly quality clothing designers.

Let’s look first as the Carolina Women’s Wool Dress, available in 22 single colors or a fatpack with HUD. It has lovely detail that really catches the light, and the shape is very flattering. Don’t you just want to snuggle up to someone in that? In the coral color I matched it with some pretty over the knee boots from Mutresse called Kaisia, available in an 18 color HUD fatpack with lots of mix and match color parts.

And black is always nice and slimming. Here I wore the Carolina wool dress with the Chetare boots in ebony from Bella Moda.

Addams is also really good with jackets. Here is a casual denim number, Melissa, that opens up nicely around the chest to show off… whatever nice top you are wearing (insert giggle here!).  However I chose to wear my fave Blueberry tank, the Lola; and rounded it off with a neat pair of jeans called Dita from Lapointe and Bastchild (subject of a future blog!)  The Addams Melissa jacket comes in a substantial 41 single colors, or a fatpack with HUD. It has a flopped down hood in back that you can turn on or off, with 16 colors of its own.

Finally, we have a sharp looking leather jacket with woolly collar from Addams called Lulu, available in 14 single colors or a HUD fatpack. It too opens up nicely around the chest area; in this case there is an option for a bra that can be turned on and off. The bra is not quite to my taste so instead I used another goody from Lapointe & Bastchild, a retro tank top that will be in that future post too!

That’s it for this time, my lovelies! Cheers!

Bottom or Top?

Jaz Fashion, LotD, Reviews

That’s ‘pants’ or ‘jacket/blouse’ of course…. Hello everyone! Today I wanted to show off a selection of tops and bottoms for a range of occasions.

It’s summer! And time to be outdoors enjoying the fresh air. Nature beckons with a lovely jacket from Giz Seorn called Trixie, available in eight denim colors plus a fat pack that tosses in pretty designs such as this one. It’s available at the Vanity event. Complementing the light summer feel is a pair of my favorite jeans, Tali from Blueberry, with over 20 single colors, a fat pack, and even a separate leather fat pack.

Club time you say? How about a little bit of purple to shake things up? Returning to Blueberry again, the Bette top is very versatile, with both long and short versions and over 20 individual colors plus a fat pack. The pants are a sweet half-lace number called Toxica from Gulabi, with over 30 single colors plus a fat pack with bonus lace patterns.

  • Blouse: Bette Dress Shirt – Short by Blueberry
  • Pants: Toxica by Gulabi (Marketplace link)
  • Necklace: Endear Ladies Key Necklace and Gypsy Necklace – Black Pearl/Silver by EarthStones
  • Hair: VANILLA A and VENEZIA A by eXxEsS
  • Boots: Not Whyte Beaded Laced Ankle Boot by RFYRE
  • Jewelry: Boho Ring Collection by *KATE*
  • Pose: Semper Infidelis by Bauhaus Movement

On those days when the sun is maybe a little bright and it’s time for the floppy hat, we can still go with our Toxica pants, here in a light blue, and mix it with another offering from Gulabi, the Noctra jacket, which comes in an astounding 60 single colors, plus a fat pack with exclusive colors. What’s more, the jacket has a variety of different sections that can be recolored in the fat pack with any of the other colors; truly a very versatile top!

  • Jacket: Noctra by Gulabi (Marketplace link)
  • Pants: Toxica by Gulabi (Marketplace link)
  • Shoes: Celine by Astralia
  • Hat: MI Female Hat by Meli Imoko (Marketplace link)
  • Hair: Valentina by Truth Hair
  • Pose: Sexy 08 by Aeon Animation (no relation to our Aeon!) (Marketplace link)

And finally, when you *really* need to get away from it all, here is the Gulabi Noctra jacket again in one of its other colors, paired this time with the Leather Cult Pants from Aris Aris, which includes 12 colors. For good measure I added the Lola tanktop by Blueberry.

I hope you all enjoyed my little romp through tops and bottoms! Let’s see what I come up with next time, shall we?

Cheers!
