It’s Saturday and it’s dance night! I’ve got a funky and colourful look for the dance floor.  It’s pinks and yellows framed with black.

Here is what I wore this Friday night (in my desperate search for a hot night spot).  I started with the cool Bowie dress from Emery and then played with the blues and reds in the pattern to complete the look. I got the reds from my lips, nails and jewellery, and the blues from the two-toned leggings and detailing on the shoes.

… late night … booty calls - SHINY DISCO BALLS….

And I’m sure that the majority of people reading this have no idea what the hell the title and start of this blog post are referring to – but if you do, good for you.  As I mentioned yesterday, there will actually be two blog posts today – and they both follow one theme:  Music.

Music is something that I find universally inspires everyone – like a muse; go figure.  Ever since Milla had given me the oppurtunity to blog on MichaMi I have been bugging my good friend Catero Revolution to do a blog post with me – why? Because he’s just so stylish and sexy – I mean let’s face it, Catero’s got good taste – and his avatar always looks delicious.  Soo… long story short, after a little poking and proding, he finally agreed to do one with me – so long as it involved one thing: Disco.

Not being a huge fan of the Disco era, or at least not having an extremely comprehensive knowledge of the era – it did take a little convincing – however, I like the Scissor Sisters and having a good time every now and then… so… I’ll go with it:

As soon as Catero showed up to take the pictures in his outfit, I knew I had to do something that was a bit more simple; when you’re dressing as a couple – you dont want it to seem as though you’re competing with each other for the spotlight.  Piecing this together was fairly simple in many respects, but it took some serious digging through my landmark library to actually find something that would work.  I started with a bob with some razor sharp angles and bangs, very Cleopatra-esque.  From there I simply went for a bright strapless jumper with the most rediculously bright belt I could find… glitter and highly saturated colors – check.  I finished off my whole look with a pair of basic metalic pumps and for fear of overdoing it anymore than we already had, I left it at that.  Oh, and let’s not forget that strong cat-eye makeup as well…

How Catero came up with his look?  It probobly involved some mushrooms and a darklight, that’s all I can say.

*ignore my bearclaw hand in the picture, I have no idea why it looks like that.

Happy New Year!
2008

I hope you all had a very happy and safe New Year – and hopefully reading this blog while delicately nursing that miserable hang-over.  It’s crazy to think that it’s once again a whole new year – I feel like only yesterday it was the beginning of 2007 and the prospects of what the new year may bring were buzzing around the grid; and I must say – 2007 certainly did deliver in that respect, and I was not disappointed.  In today’s post I’d like to focus on some of the content creators who I think will be making a big splash in the fashion community through the course of 2008 – or at least the ones I’ll be watching for. 

Most of us will have visited more than one party last night, and today’s outfit is what I like to call “the after party dress” – it’s a little edgy and funky, and extremely sexy – for those of you who made appearances all over the place, can’t be seen in the same dress twice (especially in one night!) - right?

One color that I have started to see getting picked up lately is purple; I don’t know if I would go so far as to say it will be the color of next season, but I definitely feel like a purple trend is starting – and so therefor I started this look with Shai Delacroix’s gorgeous Lilac Wine Dress.  It’s just so elegant and sexy and despite all the textures and lines in the front (and that collar, jeez), the open back is really where the party is.  To me, this dress is a perfect example of the necessary balance between sexy and classy.  I have paired it with Storm Schmooz’s latest knee high boot which is simple enough to not overpower the dress, but also provides an adequate amount of sex appeal to keep it balanced.  And finally considering the dresses collar, it was pretty difficult to find the right hair without making it seem weighed down – but after much consideration, I’ve revisited my love affair with all that is Victoria Beckham and gone once more for that super textured short bob; which I think is going to be HUGE this year in both real life and Second Life – if you don’t consider it huge already.

I’m in a party mood tonight.

So, I wanted something sassy and sexy for today and I must have tried on everything in black in my Inventory — I just couldn’t make up my mind! I finally settled on this gorgeous blouse (which is actually the top of a dress) and a classic black mini-skirt with knee-high boots. This should do it!

Super-sexy hair (one of my old all-time ETD favourites) and super-smoky eyes finishes this look.

I haven’t done a Versatility post for ages (i.e. where I put together different looks from the same base piece). Today I’ve used the Shift dress as the base (from Last Call’s Ginny outfit), because a shift dress is an excellent basic that any style conscious Av should have in her inventory. It’s the perfect blank canvas for any look — here I offer up 4 variations for your perusal.

#1. I started with the DIVA

It’s a look for some serious partying in the trendiest of nightclubs, she is dripping in diamonds but she still has an edge. The black boa does almost all the work here, I only added sheer tights, black studded pumps and a clutch. I then went with a platinum spiky updo and smoky eyes for that edge.

LOTS more after the jump!

Time for dancing the night away!

I got the sexy sequinned body suit from the recent sales at X3D (before the re-build) and I have been waiting to wear it since. The bodysuit includes the tube top and booty shorts, and at first I was going to wear it on its own. However, my inner shy girl protested and insisted I cover up some more, so I added just the prim from a black bubble skirt. I continued with black opaque tights and black stockings, again in solid colours to cover up some more — if you’re feeling hoochie you could go for sheer tights and stockings… up to you! I finished off with knee-high boots and long gloves.

Sexy blond tresses were called for here… Eyes are also sexy and smoky.
