MichaMi Style Blog

I’ve been fiddling with my Sidebar again.

First I’ve tweaked my My Top 10 Designers and thought I would give some detail into my rankings.  However, first off I wanted to make the following statement for the record and for the sake of transparency:

This blog (and this blogger) is in no shape or form supported or sponsored by any of these designers (or by anybody else for that matter). Also, none of the designers are on my Friends list and I don’t have any kind of personal relationship with any of them. My preference is purely and solely based on my personal admiration of the quality of their creations.

Phew! Ok, now we got that out of the way lets continue with the lists.

1. Last Call - Ginny Talamasca: remains the untouched queen of clothes design.  She is unrivaled in originality, execution and productivity.  This is where most of my Lindens are spent.

2. ETD: My hair maker of choice. The styles and the textures have got me hooked — and the frequent new releases make sure I keep coming back for more.

3. Celestial Studios: The best skins and make-ups for my shape.  The enormous choice of faces is also a huge factor in my preference for CS. 

4. Shiny Things: Shoe dealer of choice. I’m obsessed with the curve of the prim between heel and toe – and there is nobody who does that better than Fallingwater Cellardoor of Shiny Things.

5. Canimal: Funky clothes and brilliant textures.

6. X3D Apparel: Original and well-executed clothes and shoes, with a flavor of haute couture.

7. G.L.A.M. Fashions: Wonderful casual outfits that are great for the basics in your wardrobe.

8. Earthstones: Original and beautiful jewelry.

9. PixelDolls: Original designs and high-quality work.

10. Nyte’N'Day: Good quality clothes from jeans to club to underwear.

Then I added a new list of NewComers. These are smaller brands that I really like. Some of them have only a few items and others are already on their way to establishing themselves permanently. These are NOT in any kind of order of preference.

Needless to say, I am always on the look out for new talents (what fashionista is not?), I love it when somebody comes along with a new and original style to add even more variation to our Second Lifes. I’m looking forward to adding more names to the NewComers list in the future.
