Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend!

Hey All!

So is it bad that i'm excited that Christmas is almost over... well for me.. one more day and my Christmas Holidays are over and then i have to get over New Years and then i can start 2010. I need to make some New Years Resolutions and stick to them. One being stop shopping so much in SL (LOL) who am i kidding... that's like not going to happen.

Today i've mixed a lot of my old purchases.. with my newest purchases from Su! and Coco. I've also decided to try out the blonde look for a while. When i originally rezzed in world 2 years ago i was a blonde... but because i'm brunette in real life i decided to make my avatar similar to myself (well the hair department anyways).

One thing i can't forget to mention is the Diamond Room by Katey Coppola - the talented creator behind Glitterati Poses. This is currently Anne and I's favourite purchase and if you look through my Flickr Stream you'll find a lot of my latest pics are taken in it.

But without further ado here are the details of my outfit for today.. enjoy :))

Hair: Truth (Stacie - Snow)
Skin: Lara Skins (Adina - Smokey 2 Pink Lips Pale)
Jacket: Coco (Denim jacket - Midnight)
Shirt: Su! (Long Sweater - Black)
Jeans: Emjay (Capri's Ripped Dark)
Boots: Adam and Eve (Tia Boots - Black)
Belt: Coco (Wrap Skinny Belt Studs - Silver)
Rings: Naith Smit (Blood Diamond and LeRock Diamond Ring)

Well i think that's all from me for now... don't forget to check out Katey Coppola's awesome store Glitterati - trust me you won't wanna leave...

An Aoharu Holiday

As much as I enjoy time off from work, the holidays never fail to be busy! Between running around RL and all the going on of SL it has been totally crazy. However, I was lucky enough to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas with my bestie and fellow blogger Lily. We got to have some much needed together time and it was great! I even got to spend time with my friend Kami as well as a few people I rarely get to see.

Anyway, enough holiday babble and on to today's outfit. Today's look is very casual, but chic at the same time. When I first put on the down vest with shirt from Aoharu, I was in love. With the new Yelena hair from Fri.day to top it off it's pulled together yet totally comfortable. So, if you're like me and you just want to relax yet be stylish than take a look at the outfit below and take a break to shop!

50L #20 (Anne's Take)

OMG! I was supposed to have this post out on Monday, but it's been a hectic week. Unfortunately, my bah-humbug self has been in full force this week as I try to get everything RL taken care of before we closed down work for the holidays. Needless to say, as of today I am on vacation! Woot!

Anyway, the 50L designers were out in full force this week! With so many items to choose from it was hard to just pick a few. However, my favorite item I purchased this week has to be Merritt's hair from Tiny Bird & Reek. It was the inspiration for my winter look this week and I hope you enjoy it. I can't wait to see what else this collaboration comes up with!!

I guess today i went a little out of my comfort zone and chose to blog the cute dress from This Is Fawn. The catch being... i threw in my trusty pair of boots from Last Eden and well basically created a pretty yet kinda odd look :P

I'm not going to ramble on this time... i'm just going to get straight down to business and let you know the details. BUT - i must thank once again the awesome creators involved in 50L Fridays... this is an amazing thing you do on a weekly basis because we know how much hard work and effort you guys put into your items. Thank You!!

Lucky Christmas

So, I have totally been "bah-humbug" lately. You know the feeling: denying the fact that Christmas is only 10 days away, a reluctance to admit you're behind on shopping for presents, and a desire to just say "bah-humbug, can we roll in 2010 already?" Okay, so maybe most of you don't feel that way, but in an effort to shed my moodiness I decided to go shopping. I mean, come on, what's better for the soul than a little retail therapy?!

While on my quest to find my Christmas spirit I ended up at Mudhoney and found this awesome photoable. Finally, something to jump start my inner jolliness. Of course, no Christmas scene is complete without a warm winter outfit. Fortunately for me, CK Winx of Luck Inc. released an awesome line of sweater dresses and wool leggings. Not to mention the warm boots from Anexx to keep me warm and in the holiday spirit.

So, now that I have found my holiday happiness I hope you will too!

<3 Anne

50L Friday #19 (Anne's Version)

You may think Lily was joking when she said how excited we get over 50L Friday. But she is completely right, every Thursday night when we're chatting we always talk about how tomorrow is Friday (and we know what that means)! Due to our timezones we always have to wait until after our Friday is over, but it is always worth it. The designers never cease to amaze us and the different outfit possibilities are endless. So, just to say it again, THANK YOU DESIGNERS!

Anyway, you have already seen the awesome retro look Lily put together, but now it's my turn. For my 50L outfit, I have decided to go rocker glam. I hope you enjoy it and keep watching this space every Monday for Lily and my 50L looks.

Bad Gaga

Hey there, welcome to the newest SL blog "Clothes Over Bros." You may be wondering about the title and that was thought up by my bestie and fellow blogger Lily. When she first said the phrase, it just made sense. Despite the men that flow through our SLives, we always have SL retail therapy to make us feel better!

Anyway, I'm sure you will learn more than you want to know about us soon enough... How about we get on to the clothes already?!

For the first blog entry, I can't think of anyone better to honor than Lady Gaga. She is an inspiration to me as well as many of the designers in Second Life. With her outrageous costumes how could someone not want to try to recreate the looks. Below are two looks that I have created based off her newest video "Bad Romance." I hope you enjoy the following as much as I do!

<3 Anne


Look #1 (left):
Hair: Exile
Skin: League
Lingerie: Angel Dessous
Jewelry (with attachment diamonds and pose): LaGyo







Look #2 (right):
Hair: Truth
Skin: League
Bodysuit: Beauty Avatar
Gloves: YV
Boots: Bax
Pose: Glitterati Sci Fi Hallway
