ZURYA Mall - Schön, Vanity Hair, Mary Jane Shoes and WTG Jewelry

Before I hit the Sky Lounge at Zurya, I dropped in at The Mall @ Zurya and made some purchases for a fun, rockerish type outfit.  My first stop was Schön, where I picked up Dea (leopard), which also happens to be a Zurya limited edition from designer Saya Littlething of Schön.  This fun leopard print top features prim sleeves and bottom.  The top is belted and features a gold accent.  The pants come in two versions, black and red, like I am wearing and also in an all white version.

I needed some fun hair for my edgy look, so I headed over to Vanity Hair and picked up Deomodee.  Demodee was the perfect hair style choice, with its pumped up volume and bangs that swoop in and across the face.

Shoes were next on my agenda and the Attitude boots in black from Mary Janes Shoes were just the right option for my edgy look.  These shiny ankle boots are peep-toe, which I just love.  Boots that I can still wear in the summer!

To finish off my look I needed some accessories and WTG was just the place!  Their edgy jewelry and great nails, I knew that would have what I needed.  I picked up La Fleur Nail and Bangle set.  This set perfectly compliments the colors of my top!

Another successful shopping trip at Zurya allowed me to style the perfect rocker, edgy look for a night out!  Be sure to check out what the designers at Zurya have to offer you TODAY!

Bliss Couture @ ZURYA Fashion Mall

Bliss Couture has been one of my favorite fashion houses since I first started modeling in Second Life. When I made that initial transition from 'pretty' avatar to 'model', Bliss was the place I was told by many models that I simply had to shop at. Since then I have become quite the loyal customer and have dozens of gorgeous Bliss creations in my inventory, from extravagent gowns to luscious cocktail dresses to fabulous couture hair styles.

Today from the ZURYA Fashion Mall we bring you one of my bost beloved Bliss Couture creations, the Camyrn gown in black & red. I honestly believe this is one of the best Bliss formal gowns in their vast list of incredible creations. Designer Amutey DeCuir just knows how to flatter a female avatar's form in all the right ways and this gown certainly proves it.


The intricate black lace top of this stunning gown gives the illusion of near-nakedness while concealing just enough to leave a beautiful mystery to be uncovered. The lace top has a lovely prim flower button in the front and a gorgeous flower and lace prim flourish in the back. The beautiful red skirt flows and swirls like liquid. This gorgeous creation makes me think of a beauitful goddess of love.

To complete my goddess look, I have this lovely Minerva hair style from Vanity Hair, also available at the ZURYA Fashion Mall. This gown is so beautiful, I did not want to detract from it with too much styling, so I added on only some beautiful Alienbear 'Eostre' jewelry and Finesmith 'Blacklace' rings and nails. Underneath the fantastic skirt is a sexy pair of Mary Jane Shoes 'Nude Black Stilettos', also available at the mall.

If I had the Lindens, I would quite honestly probably buy everything ever put out by Bliss Couture. Truly Bliss is still one of the best fashion houses in Second Life and only gets better every year.

VERO MODERO @ ZURYA Fashion Mall

VERO MODERO is one of my favorite designer brands in Second Life for both casual and formal wear. At least half of the casual looks in my Outfits folder are mix and matches containing one or more items of VERO MODERO. As for their amazing formal wear, I cannot express how much I adore VM's gowns and cocktail dresses. They are fabulously gorgeous in their fabric and design details and make me feel richly luxurious every time I put one of them on.


One of VERO MODERO designer Bouquet Babbii‘s formal wear, the Gold Cage Gown, was selected as one of the 20 most beautiful evening gowns ever created in Second Life for this year’s BOSL Awards. This fantastic creation, which is available at VM's satellite store at the ZURYA Fashion Mall, is one of the most beloved gowns in my closet.

The beautiful, lush fabric of this gown just makes you want to run your hands all over it and cradle it against your skin. The vibrant coloring, shaded to perfection in gorgeous patterns, draws the eye to the gown's delectable, curve-hugging form. The shape of the dress is stunning and I have seem quite a few designers try to pull off this type of silhouette and not even come close to the deceptively simplistic beauty of the VM's Cage gown.

VERO MODERO's formal wear alone would be enough to make me a lifetime, loyal customer. However, I also adore their wide selection of cocktail and casual wear items. In particular, I am extremely fond of VERO MODERO's lovely tops -- such as ‘Brezzy B&W Top’ , also available at VM's satellite store at the ZURYA Fashion Mall.


This wonderful black & white top, adorned with a brilliant crimson rosette, is the perfect top to pair with jeans, skirt or even a pair of VERO MODERO denim shorts for a fun, fresh summer look. This top, like so many of VERO MODERO's pieces, can be dressed up or down depending on what other items and accessories you combine it with.

Whether you are looking for that perfect, dramatic gown for a fashionable event, a gorgeous cocktail dress for an evening out or just a flirty, casual look for a daytime trip to the boardwalk, VERO MODERO should definitely be high on your shopping list. Drop on by VERO MODERO at the ZURYA Fashion Mall and check out a variety of VM's fantastic summer designs.

VM currently has a wondeful group gift set out at the mall you don't want to miss, so don't forget to snap that up if you come for a visit!

Hey Guys,

Here is this super cute and casual creation by the talented mind behind [Cavalieri].  Chloe Cavalieri made this black and white mini-skirt.  This mini has this wrinkly, in a cute way, tank top that is tucked into this high-waisted zippered black mini skirt.  

This cute and chic mini-skirt was just one out of a vast array of colors that you can mix and match to create that perfect look for yourself.  Also, in [Cavalieri], they have poses too.  What cant this woman do?

Schön, WTG & Mary Jane Shoes @ Zurya Fashion Mall

Before visiting the Zurya Fashion Mall, I was not familiar with the designs of Saya Littlething of Schön [English spelling Schoen]. I was delighted to find a number of lovely items at Schoen that I immediately wanted to add to my inventory. For this blog post, I had to narrow it down to just a few pieces, but I had great fun putting this look together. After checking out all the gorgeous clothing, I couldn't help but fall for a pair of amazing leather pants that were just screaming for me to grab them. With those in hand, I decided I wanted to go for a fun, rock n' roll kind of vibe for my look.


To go with my new favorite pair of pants, I loved this barely there ribbon top from Schoen's 'ILY' bodysuit in red. The bodysuit in it's original form is a skimpy criss-cross of ribbon from head to toe with a cute prim ribbon that attaches on one side. I wanted to mix and match something up, however, so I combined the top half of the bodysuit with my fab new pants. To ramp up the rock, I added on one of my favorite Vanity Hair styles, 'Kaos', which is also available at Zurya Fashion Mall.


When it came to choosing accessories, I already had a head start as Schoen had on display for purchase an awesome chain belt from WTG that was created to go with the Lamia pants. Since WTG also has a satellite store at Zurya Fashion Mall, I headed over there to deck myself out with some additional goodies. To finish out my outfit for the day, I picked up some stellar WTG 'Blessing-S' nails in black and silver and threw on a set of WTG 'GNR-ROSE' bracelets and earrings I had previously purchased there.


Of course, no outfit is complete without a great pair of shoes! One of my favorite shoe designers happens to have a store at Zurya Fashion Mall as well. I picked up this striking pair of 'Nude Stiletto' heels in black for a final touch on my outfit of the day. You just can't lose with a simple, beautiful pair of black stilettos that you can match to so many different looks!

Izzie's @ ZURYA Fashion Mall

Hey Guys,

Here is a gorgeous summer dress by Izzie's.  This summer dress is called Izzie's - Chiffon Summer Dress Pink, and what a pink summer dress this is.  What can i say about this dress; the colors are so flattering to any skin tone and any figure.  The pattern used on this dress is just beautiful.  The transition from the dark purple to the light pink with the  design placed on this dress just makes it breath-taking.  

To go along with this beautiful summer dress, is a set that matches perfectly to this specific dress.  The Izzie's - Pearl Jewelry Set Pink / Blue has three pieces in the set.  There are bracelets that are on each wrist.  These bracelets were created to be in a set, but they don't look similar; which is a good thing.  There is a necklace that goes along with these bracelets.  

xoxo,

HYATT @ ZURYA Fashion Mall

I first had the pleasure of being introduced to the fabulous creations of HYATT Haute Couture Jewelry CEO and Designer Amanda Hausner when I was cast for a show called The Surreal Life, hosted by the Opium Fashion Agency. I had previously admired HYATT designs and visited their store, but had not yet had an occasion to wear anything from the line until The Surreal Life show.

One of my fantastical outfits for this show was an astounding dress from HYATT called 'Golden Ocean' in red -- with matching shoes, both of which are currently available at the HYATT store at the ZURYA Fashion Mall. This is, quite frankly, one of the most spectacular gown creations I've seen all year. If you enter a room in this ball gown, you can pretty much guarantee heads will turn!


The Golden Ocean gown is just that, an ocean of ruffled skirt with beautiful golden rings adorning the outside hem. Standing still, this ball gown sweeps across the floor in an astonishing circumference, showing everyone nearby that you are absolutely a diva to be reckoned with. In motion, the gown truly shows off it's beauty as the skirt sweeps back into a graceful train as you walk and spins with elegance as you turn or dance. The gown comes in red, black and white, all of which are available in HYATT's satellite store at the ZURYA Fashion Mall.

While HYATT's Golden Ocean gown is an amazing creation, and the brand has a few other lovely clothing items as well, the line is actually primarily known for its beautiful couture jewelry and metal wear. HYATT has a fabulous line of gold and silver jewelry in a variety of unique and intriguing designs. In addition to the usual necklaces, earrings and bracelets, HYATT also features gorgeous metal corsets, head pieces and other items for the discerning fashionista.


In styling HYATT's Golden Ocean gown, I could not resist these striking Bunggle earrings and matching head piece to combo with the gown's golden shoulder and neck pieces. Just look at the delicious shine on the jewelry in the sun of Costa Rica Sims' Opera House gardens! This gown is already over the top in all the right ways and I delighted in pushing it just that one step further. These lovely bracelets I added to the look are actually a group gift item from HYATT, how sweet is that?

Drop by the HYATT store at the ZURYA Fashion Mall to check out more gorgeous jewelry creations from designer Amanda Hausner!
