Greetings from Missy!

Hello! Oh it’s been a while. Too too long.

Let me start from the beginning. As some of you may have noticed, my store is no longer available in the Shengri La Marketplace on Hope. I just found this out last night..lol. It will be moving to a new location, and I will have a landmark up as soon as the store is ready to go. Everything is still available for purchase on Xstreetsl.com.

I will be also participating in my school’s RL fashion show, Runway 3.0. There, I will be making 3 RL creations, as well as having those same creations available in SL. It should be really awesome!

Anywho. I will be super busy creating lots of new things! So keep checkin back!!

OMGG! THERE’S SO MUCH NEW STUFF!

I am announcing the release of 4 new dresses: Harlequin, Bella, Midnight Sparkle Jewel and Midnight Sparkle Velvet.

Harlequin is my newest creation. I wore it at the Jewels of Winter fashion installation. It is a HUGE ballgown that flows and glides softly with every step. It’s rich black velvet bodice is adorned with shiny colored or clear crystals in a checkered pattern. These same crystals flow down the sheer black layers of the gown. An asymmetrical corset ties it all together with matching satin ribbon. You’ll be the center of attention at any masquerade ball. Harlequin is available currently in 7 colors (gown/jewels): Black/Ruby, Black/Diamond, Black/Black Diamond, Black/Sapphire, Black/Sapphire/Amethyst, Black/Autumn(diamond, gold, rubies and amethyst), Black/Gold.

AND DON’T FORGET…. BELLA FANTASIQUE HAS MOVED TO A NEW LOCATION.

FASHION TECHNOLOGY INTERVIEW!!

Hello everybody. It’s me, Missy. Last week, I was interviewed by a most influential fashion professor of mine. I was asked to make a little presentation to go along with this interview. You can view it http://fashiontech.wordpress.com/2009/11/21/missy-sl-virtual-internship-interview/ here with audio/video. I also had a follow up that you can read about here http://fashiontech.wordpress.com/, for those of you looking to either get into the fashion and textile technology program, or for those interested in virtual fashion. It was both a pleasure and an honor! Thanks!!

Oh… it’s only 3 in the morning…

OMGG!!

I JUSSSSTTT got back from seeing NEW MOON. It (obviously) was so good… I fall in love over and over every single time. Well worth the wait and seeing it at midnight. I am feeling so incredibly inspired by this entire love story that it just takes my breath away as my mind is bursting with thoughts. I am hoping this inspiration will spark a new wave of creativity and you will be seeing more from me very soon.

See you in the a.m.
              well later this a.m. i mean ;)

Light up the dance floor with D-LITE

Hello, hello!

Let’s start out by saying I’m totally excited to be back in full swing again with Shenlei, she is such an inspiration and awesome mentor! & I’m excited to work along side Britt Peapod, the new intern with me.

I have released a new dress, called D-Lite. It was inspired by 70s party wear that shines in the light of a disco ball. This dress I have created brings that same excitement and flair into modern day with ruffles and shine. D-Lite is a mockneck halter dress with glowing beadwork cascading down the neckline. A ruffle skirt attaches at the hip with tiny dots of light. It’s perfect for a fun night out.

D-Lite is available now in 6 colors (dress/light): Black/white, black/gold, black/pink, black/lemon lime, black/aqua, black/hot pink. (Click the images below to enlarge images.)

With D-Lite, you will receive: Bodice, skirt, prim skirt and glow prim skirts (light). The bodice and skirt are copy only, while the prim skirts and glow prim skirts are copy and modifyable. Each prim skirt and glow prim skirts come with three pieces: the main center ruffles, and then Left (L) and Right (R) leg attachments.

Party everyday!

QUEEN OF HEARTS SWIMWEAR LAUNCH!!!!

HELLO HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This week, I have FINALLY launched my swimwear line, QUEEN of  HEARTS. It is a line I developed as a RL project for one of my fashion classes. It is super cute and definitely sexy. All of the pieces are mixable, matchable, whateverable… My inspiration for this line was my favorite Disney movie, Alice in Wonderland (and YES I am TOTALLY EXCITED to see Tim Burton’s verson of it!!). I also have a love for all things that are very girlie. I wanted this line to capture cute innocense with a hidden inner sex kitten fantasy.

I am using a few different patterns and motifs in this line. One motif is the signature heart. It is a dripping or “bleeding” heart with a pointed top right side reminiscent of a crown. Another is a long antique key with a heart handle. It is paired with a lock in my first swimwear outfit, titled “white key.” Some of the patterns use either these motifs in some kind of pattern or changed and tweaked a bit. I used my bleeding heart to make stripes, gradient bursts and outlined colors.

So far I have three complete swimwear “outfits” available in stores and on XStreet. I have two types of tops: a banded halter top, which is your classic bikini halter top with a thick black band which ties into a bow in the back (flexi); and a twisted bandeau top that twists in the front and curves ever so delicately into a straight back. As of right now, the banded halter is available in the “white key” motif, and the twisted bandeau is available in a shadowy “black” or a shiny hot “red rose”. The bottoms are a keyhole string bikini, which has a thin black string and a small keyhole in the back.

There are many more patterns and colors to come; this is just a small small taste of QUEEN of HEARTS swimwear.

ENNNJJJOYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOVEEEEEEEEE,

MISSYYYY
