The Diary of a Royal

The Diary of a Royal
While working on my outfit for the next Miss Royalty challenge, I realized that I never blogged the outfit I put together for our contestants meeting. It was the first time that most of us had been in the same room together. We were asked to style with the theme of “Princess Diaries 2” in mind. It’s been a while since I saw the film and unfortunately I couldn’t find it on Netflix. I really need to watch both again as I loved them when I was younger and read most of the book series. What I remember most from “Princess Diaries 2” were the parties. I was particularly drawn to an outdoor party, especially after I saw the venue for our meeting and how it had an open ceiling, large glass windows and vines hanging from the walls. It seemed perfect to style particularly for a garden tea party.

Poppies

poppies-final
It’s been stormy and dreary in my hometown lately, so I thought a photo with flowers would brighten the mood. In putting together this look, I definitely took inspiration from my childhood. The dress is youthful and sweet, and I wore the kind of long hair I had as a child. It was so long for a few years that I could easily sit on it. It was nice to create a dreamy image today.

You’re such a Doll

youreadoll-final

I apologize for the delay in posting an entry wearing this outfit. The edgy frills are a great design feature on this skirt from BYRNE. She designs some great items. In the back, should you decide to wear the outfit, are teal spikes in the same pattern as the rest of the garments. My inspiration for this photo was a girly, floral nymph enjoying a beautiful day in the sun. I have been craving nice weather, and thankfully that has been answered recently. We skipped spring around here and went straight to summer.

As an aside, this photo was taken at the sim called It All Starts with a Smile.

Virtual Style at Penumbra Fashion Week by Ghee

penumbraghee-final
Here is my second post for the Penumbra Fashion Week. I chose to go with quite a girly look this time. And I stayed away from a lot of black! I hope you will check out this ankle-length dress from Ghee, available in several colors. What I like most is that it comes in two layers; the lace is separate from the silk piece underneath. That makes not only for a great look together, but also the option to mix and match.

Welcome to Hellas

hellas-final
When Rose asked me if I would blog one of Athena Courture’s gowns for the Fashion for Change event, I had to say yes. And no, she didn’t even have to twist my arm. It was an easy answer because I love that she has created designs based on a country of her heritage. I have been to Greece once before, and it led me to develop a deep appreciation for the culture and history (AND the food, shhh). Also, all the Greeks I met were kind and welcoming. They really took care of us. We had an amazing time during our trip. In a few months we are going back, this time to northern Greece.

It might seem strange that my avatar appears to be crying in this image. I added the rose petal tears because I miss Greece and cannot wait to get back. Time seems to be crawling. Also, by the way, the Greek word for Greece is Hellas, hence the blog post title.

Only a few more days until Fashion for Change opens! I think you will love this gown when you try it on. The draping is lovely.

Gown: Athena Couture – Astraea Gown available at Fashion for Change starting April 11th
Shoes: Glamistry – Linaria Heels
Face accessory: LODE – Crimson Petal Tears
Hair: Lelutka – Christine
Pose: Posesion from the Hollywood set

Timeless Tale

timelesstale-final
The items in today’s entry are so gorgeous. They make me feel like a modern princess. BYRNE has this gorgeous dress in 3 colors at the Instruments March round. As you can see, I particularly like the materials-enabled version. This tower is an amazing prop from Exposeur; it comes with 5 singles poses and 3 couples poses. The brand always has interesting poses and sets, but I have to honestly say that this is one of my favorites. You’ll find it at the current round of OneWord. Hurry over though, because tomorrow is the last day it’s available.

Dress: BYRNE – MalloryRose for the Instruments
Hair: Truth – Vida
Tower and pose: Exposeur – Fairytale Tower from OneWord
Head piece: LODE – Magnolia II from the Arcade
Necklace: Kunglers – Frida Forever from FashionArt by Inovare

Birds, Butterflies and The Peacock

birdsandbutterflies

This gown is one of the most gorgeous I have seen on Second Life. It comes in this blue and also has a yellow base/skirt version called Goldfinch. The birds from the LODE gacha at The Chapter Four fit perfectly with this Peacock gown and I have some butterfly friend with me that came with a hair from Atomic. The earrings are Glam Affair for Fifty Linden Friday. They are worth way more than that given their high quality, so get them while you have the chance. I am also wearing the Haste Collared Bracelet which is chic and I think it could match many different types of look whether casual or more on the formal side. Sometimes I think we can be surprised at how versatile items are. The bracelet comes with a HUD so you can change the metal texture.

Gown: Whimsical Imaginarium – Peacock from The Instruments
Bracelet: Haste – Collared Bracelet
Birds head accessories: LODE – Magic from The Chapter Four
Hair: BooN
Earrings: Glam Affair – Joy Earrings for Fifty Linden Friday
