Party Outfit – The Chic Girl

Because not all of your New Year’s Eve parties involve drunkingly kissing a stranger at midnight.  This look is for the demure, chic girl that just wants a glass of champagne and some company of some fabulous friends over a nice dinner.   Dancing Shoes are including in case a great jazz tune comes on the radio. :)

Party Outfit – The Rocker Girl

 

Well, ladies… New Years Eve is quickly approaching and we have to start planning our perfect outfits to ring in the New Year.   I decided to prepare a few different looks for everyone to enjoy and started off with my favorite rocker-esque  style.  Quite honestly, this is similar to the look that I’ll probably be wearing out on the town when the clock strikes midnight.

.a dream within darkness.

So often we dream of living a horrible place and a horrible time, and yet we remain in the darkness that we have created for ourselves.  Do we enjoy fantasies so much that we refuse to make a change and turn them into realities?

Discover Your Skin – Exodi

Discover Your Skin with text

While her store was still named Genesis, Ryker Beck created Eden in March 2009, and myself and many others fell in love with her creation.  A beautiful woman with a range of makeups.  It was immediate to see the immense talent of Ryker, and many even got to follow her process as she would post stages of completion.  Ryker changed the name of her business to :Exodi:: but what hasn’t changed is the amazing detail in each of her skins.  Lily has been introduced and I find myself falling in love all over again with a lady who can be subtle and fierce, sexy and demure, vivacious and humble all at the same time.
