From Darkness into Light

LivGlam has a bunch of offerings available for the 2014 Dope Spring Fashion Expo. The mini-dress featured in this post is one of two designs in the K Collection. Wearing it makes me feel very sexy.

Tuesday Tea Time

Tea time is not a big thing in the United States, but whenever I visited my aunt’s house growing up we always had a tea break at 4pm. To match the floral beauty of today’s design “American Beauty” released by LivGlam for the Hello Tuesday event, I stopped by Rico’s Tea House. Everyone has been saying such positive things about the place and it’s true – the setting is beautiful. American Beauty by LivGlam is deceiving – it’s actually a mesh outfit comprised of two parts. The semi-transparent top and skirt hem, along with their beautiful draping, are the details which drew me to the outfit. It is available in the purple you see here as well as green, red and turquoise.

Top and skirt: LivGlam “American Beauty” (Hello Tuesday)
Hair: Clawtooth “Windswept” (can only be found on Marketplace)

Empire of the Sun

This photo happened today by complete accident, but I love how it turned out. I have not edited it because I liked the raw version so much. For some reason, it makes me think of a sci-fi or futuristic movie with the combination of the desert and the sheen on the leggings/skirt. Yes, this outfit actually comes in two parts. The top is a dress (part 1) and the rest is a pair of leggings with boots included (part 2). They could be worn separately to compliment other clothing items. I especially like the idea of wearing the leggings with a crop top or pairing the dress with a pair of booties. You will find the whole outfit, called “Love Hangover” available at the LivGlam store for 55 Thursday. You can change the colors and patterns using the enclosed HUD system. The other available pattern type for the bodice is artistic flowers.

Time to Blossom

Life is chaotic right now, so I felt the need to create a serene image. The coat and top underneath are the Womanizer outfit from LivGlam. It’s part of the Red Label collection. Now, in the recent past I have featured other items from their Red Label collection, but I want to mention again that these pieces are custom mesh made available to only a select number of designers. It means you are less likely to see the same designs from other stores in the grid.

As always, I wanted that extra pop of color so I complimented it with the bright necklace of Pure Poison, their most recent group gift. On another note, make sure to check out the 50% off sale happening at the main store right now!

Madam Songbird

As you can see, today I posted quite a wide image. It’s different from the typical dimensions. In all honesty, it was too difficult for me to crop because the landscape details are so beautiful. I hope you enjoy this picture for the aesthetics of both the gown and the nature surrounding it. For me, this is truly a piece of art. As bloggers, I think we have the ability to combine both fashion and art and thus create engaging compositions. Bloggers should never shy away from those moments. In my view it’s just another way of showcasing the beauty of designs.

Kustom9 Premier

Today begins the next round of Kustom9! I’d like to present to you one of the offerings that LivGlam has for the event. There is also a version in red, which is just as gorgeous. The outfit includes the shirt and the black pants. It’s something I wish I had in real life so I could wear it to work. The sleeves and shoulders are my favorite details – they convey a sense of power and confidence. It’s a really strong look overall. The back of the blouse is pretty as well, it has a cheeky feminine slit (not pictured). Another important thing to note is that this outfit is from the LivGlam Black Label. Mesh is becoming common place and is now the go-to material for fashion designers. In this growing market, creators are finding ways to stand out. As LivGlam always has, it stands out with it’s vibrant prints. That’s why I’ve always loved them. But with the Black Label, they are bringing forward original mesh creations. Yes, ORIGINAL! We women have a chance to feel unique while wearing a brand that has a great legacy and track record.

Hope you enjoy your trip to Kustom9!

I’m Not Royal?

It was incredibly exciting for me to see Liv Glam  (specifically, K-Collection) put an outfit at their mainstore for 55L Thursday inspired by the song “Royals.” I literally started jumping up and down at sight of the vendor photo. This might be bad to say, but I’m now obsessed with this look. Don’t worry too much, you will be able to pick this outfit up today and for the next few days following. It’s a t-shirt and skirt set. One thing that I always harp on is the detail in clothing. That is my number one criteria when it comes to what I feature in this blog. As with all their releases, Liv Glam has continued a high standard of quality. The other featured item today is one of the 50L ombre hair packs from Magika. This was my favorite of the five available hairstyles. The bob was a close second. They also have a thick ponytail, wavy side part and short pig tails available. When I stopped by there were a ton of people, so watch for the lag!

Glam Living in London

This jacket with it’s billow sleeve silhouette and belted closure is so chic that it makes me think of city life. In this case, London ❤ The outfit is a Liv Glam offering at the Cosmo Street Sale. It won’t be around much longer so grab it while it’s hot! The coat and skirt are the kind of pieces that I think are a staple for any wardrobe. It’s very exciting for me to be accepted to blog for Liv Glam, especially since (I won’t lie), I’ve always coveted their designs and gotten several of their outfits over the years. If you want your clothes to say “classy,” then it’s time to become a patron.

The boots were a random find at the Thrift Shop. I didn’t go there with any particular motivation in mind, just decided to browse designers. While I looked, I happened to hover over these on the display wall and saw that they were called “Amity Boots” by Intrepid. How perfect is that?! There was no way I couldn’t get them. Each HUD comes with six color options.
