I love Pixivor's styles because they're sooooo feminine and soft, and Dentelles et Taffetas (translated: lace and taffeta) is no different.

This lacy little black dress is, first of all, downright sexy. While you can't see it from a distance, when you get close (read that, VERY close), you'll see that it is fairly sheer. For the extremely shy, you may want to consider a modesty bra or pasties, but I have no issues wearing it as is, because you just don't see anything beyond 3m away. If anyone is closer than that...they would have to really be looking to see anything, and it's just a small tease ;)

Dentelles is somewhere between casual and dressy and is perfect for a dinner out, gallery opening, or dancing.

The dress comes with matching shoes, a black pearl necklace (although no earrings), and the wide belt, which can either have the flower sash, or be worn plain. There is also an option to wear the belt narrow, without the flower.

As an extra, in each package, there is a "bonus" outfit, which is the dress, the wide belt with a tied bow, and a headband.

For the price of $L700, the versatile Dentelles et Taffetas is black, but the accessories are available in green, blue, red, yellow, pale green, and pink.

Till next time!

Have you tried it? Do you like it? Do you hate it? Do you like parts of it?

Please go here, log in, and vote for your feelings about it. I don't care how you vote, just please vote! The Lindens put this poll up, so NOW is the time to let them know how you feel.

Personally, I've tried, and hate it. Yes, the additional layers are nice, and some people love web on a prim (I have security concerns about that, but whatever)....but overall, I can't stand it. Inventory never stays loaded - it'll load, I log off, two minutes later log in, and have to load inventory all over again! Takes me 20-30 minutes to fully rez. All of those non-transparent windows chew up a ton of real estate. And just try inviting someone to a group, or opening more than one profile at once.

This viewer, in my opinion, isn't ready to be a mandated viewer, and it's coming. PLEASE go vote!

A few months ago, I was at Geryn Sloane Couture, and found this gorgeous dress called Cloud Nine. It was a spectacular gold dress and I fell in love with it immediately!

Skip forward to this week, when I received a notice that Cloud Nine had been released in additional colors...yay!

Let me tell you why I love this dress so much.

The textures. Geryn, quite simply, reached perfection on the textures. Incredibly sheer and light, with exquisite detailing. Geryn recognized that not everyone in SL wants their breasts showing, so she drew in a delicate and well placed modesty bra. The detailing includes twinkling stars on the skirt panels. The skirt was made with a tiny little bit of glow and full bright, which may annoy some, but makes it seem more magical to me. If it really bothered you, Geryn left the skirt panels mod, so you can turn this off if you wish, but that small amount of glow really does make the dress glitter.


The movement. Yes, I talk about movement a lot on this blog. I love a gown with realistic movement, and this one has it. The skirt panels move naturally, even when you're walking. They don't billow out behind you in a straight line, rather, they swirl softly around your ankles. It looks lovely while you're dancing with your sweety!

Sex appeal. Let's face it, we all want to look sexy without looking trashy. Cloud Nine shows enough to be extremely sexy, without showing it all.


Lastly, the price. This beautiful gown is a steal at only 500L! The new colors are Heaven (shown above), Emerald Sunset, Purple Mist, Pink Dawn, Sandstorm, Sunshine, Crimson Morning, and Storm Front....and I just saw today another one called "Over the Rainbow" which is, as you might guess, pastel rainbow colors and quite lovely.

Stop by and pick up your Cloud Nine today!
