Fashion For Life - part 2

Second post dedicated to the Fashion For Life event. All the outfits worn are available at the fair, donation items will be marked with a red *DONATION ITEM* writing.
Thanks a lot to all the designers that provided me promotional copies, you make my life easier!

Today I want to share with you a great deal offered by the generous Mirja Mills from EMO-tions.
Her newest releases, not available in store yet, are on the donation vendors at Fashion For Life, and half price! This is an awesome chance to save a lot of money and to donate at the same time. Have a look at the great deal!

If you don't earn or buy great amounts of linden dollars but you still want to do a small donation, besides the hunt prizes and the gatchas, I would advise to check Duh. Like in the regular store, Renee Harvy set the average price of 25L for her items. My favourite piece is a beautiful string of black pearls.

Fashion For Life - Part 1

You all surely already know about Fashion For Life, Anthea talked about it already here, so I'll try not to overwhelm you with the same info. What I want to do is explaining you my plans about blogging the event.

I have received several review copies from many generous designers, I have bought tons of stuff myself, and I'll try to show you the biggest part of them. I will post at least 2-3 entries about the fair during these days and I will try to focus my attention mainly on the donation items, that are many and very beautiful. I will also feature some regularly sold products, but the donation ones will marked with the red word "DONATION".

Last but not least, you may want to know about the hunt and the gatchas that you will find at the event, with all proceeds going to the charity. Directly from the organizers notecard:

"* What's going on with the hunt?
The hunt will feature items priced 10-100L and hidden in the shops of participating designers. All proceeds from the hunt items will go to the American Cancer Society. You can find more about the shops on our website at http://fashionforlifesl.com/forpatrons/hunt-slurls-and-hints/

* And what's with the gacha?
The gacha is a new thing this year. For anyone who doesn't know what a gacha is, it is a vendor that randomly offers one of the items in its inventory when paid--kind of like a bubble gum machine. Many of the designers opted to participate in the gacha this year, offering 6 items per vendor, all no copy/transfer so people can trade and share. Each sim will have a gacha area with gachas that were created to match the theme of the sim. All proceeds from the gachas will go to the American Cancer Society."

On a side note, there are 9 sims full of great stores. The landing point is set into the store that is sponsoring the sim, so you will probably need to walk a bit. Please understand sponsors paid a lot of money, so they deserve you to have a look at their spots even though you're looking for something else. Just follow the red arrows to go to the pointed items! In case it didn't work, here's a list of where each store is.
Last but not least, the sims are awesome and I really hope you will be able to enjoy them. Low lag outfits will help you about that!

Thank you very much to all the designers who kindly sent me promotional copies, and to all those who put awesome items in their donation vendors, giving their proceeds to a cause that touches us all.

Now let's go with the great stuff!

Roleplay and More - { SeVered GarDeN }

I am finally recovering from the horrible temperature that struck me in bed in the last days, and today I want to feature a brand that in my opinion deserves more attention: { SeVered GarDeN }, owned by Berta Avro and Bubi Bolissima.
Their beautiful works are focused mainly on the Gorean and fantasy worlds, even though lately they have started to consider mainstream fashion too, with lots of good results and responses from their clients. Last but not least, their price are very affordable, a great reason to get an awesome look without spending too much!

When I talked to Berta the first time, she told me she loves designing clothings in general, but that roleplay outfits are what allows her to unwild her imagination and that makes her happy the most, which is mainly what the same kind of thoughts I have when it's time to blog! That is why I'll show you today, together with her latest mainstream releases, some hints of her way to portray Gorean female roles.

Thanks a lot, Berta! :)

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Josie *Brown - 350L, many wearing options, accessories and boots included.

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Melodie * Wine - 250L, FW outfit, 2 wearing options for many roleplay needs.

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Tala - 350L, accessories, face tattoo and barefeet in 3 colour options included (usually Berta is kind enough, if they don't match your skin, to send you a modify version). The little bird on the shoulder is super cute, isn't it? Aww!

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Olga Turquoise - 250L, accessories and boots included.

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Frida * Wine - 220L, various PG and mature wearing options (PG version shown).
