*Review* Kunglers

I’m so proud to be one of the bloggers who get to share all the great new products that come from Kunglers each week.  AvaGardner and Barbra Kungler are always designing something new and completely different each and every week.  Their store is packed with a ton of great finds that range from casuals to couture. Each outfit is typically packed with accessories or jewelry. Its amazing for the price!

Also, they recently started a Flickr group: Kunglers Designs. There you can add your own pics of the Kungler designs you own or browse a ton of great pics (and mine). I so enjoy supporting this dynamic design team.

Thank you ladies for sharing your talents with me. I really appreciate it.

Women Want: NonTraditional Classics

My first post as “Resident Male” for The D List … so be gentle, its my first time.  Valiant was the stop my quest for men’s fashion.  I was particularly taken with this suit which is sold not as a completed suit. It has this clean fresh modern look with a relaxed casual attitude.

The hardness of this classic suit is soften with the open lower buttons and the slouch-like cuffs yet still traditional sporting the slate blue tones. The side calf pocket detailing is even unexpected and almost a missed feature.  Playing into the casual feeling, I paired it with a vneck sweater that can be worn tucked in or out. Versatility in suits are very unique. This one can certainly be used at any occasion or event.

The shoes are compliments of KALNINS. The shoes are menu driven giving the option to change the color, the texture and size of the shoe itself plus several other selections. Its one of the more popular finds at KALNINS.  I can see why with the sleek texturing and many choices in the menu.

*Review* :: DUTCH TOUCH ::

Oh where do I start for this review?! Yes I know, the beginning. Okay here it goes … About 14 months ago, I bought my first :: DUTCH TOUCH :: outfit. I was completely taken away with the outfit (and I still have and still wear it). Over the course of the year, I’ve kept an eye on :: DUTCH TOUCH :: occasionally checking out the skins, the tees, the full outfits and of course picking up pieces here and there.

When Iki Ikarus told me she impressed by my blog’s pics, I had to read it three times over before I could believe what I saw. I unwrapped the prezzies with a stupid grin. Completely amazed with the new releases How can you not love :: DUTCH TOUCH ::?!

Clothing shown: Bikini Dots, Bikini Jaguar, LiZZTop Strapless Maroon, LuuNa, LoNDOn Red and Green.

Introducing: Ranger Theas

Lately, On The D List has been asked if they could review male clothing and accessories.  After a Board of Directors meeting, Luna decided to hire me, Ranger Theas.

In efforts to keep this blog fresh and evolving with the fashion trends of SecondLife, I’ll be combing the grid to find hidden treasures and accepting review copies.

My recent shopping trips have been dependent on Luna (not sure why tho *wink*).  Researching and digging up skins and basics posed to be a great exercise and challenge. Store after store, I soon realized men’s fashion isn’t as strong as women clothing lines.

I’m excited to tackle this challenge to present to all the D-Listers cool new trends in men’s fashion.  Thanks for having me onboard. Can’t wait to get started!

*Review* Kunglers

Two more great releases from Kunglers this week (and that superb couture gown). This go-around is all about being a chick as its about two fabboo cocktail dresses.  First is “Sarah” with its purple band across the chest plays nicely into the black wide ‘fringe’.  This dress includes a beautiful beaded necklace that really plays up the sheer fun. Next is “Yasminn” which has a dual option knee length dress.  Either you can wear it without the sheer midsection and top with sleeves or bare.  Either way its so darling with the light blue tights. Even has two nail polish choices – blue and purple.

{Thank you}

Hiyas D-Listers: I have some fresh new ideas brewing for the blog.  The excitement is killing me … I really can’t wait to share the new ideas. Of course, you have already seen the new layout, the new pic setup and my new shape but there is tons more … baby steps, baby steps.

I want to thank you all for reading and supporting this blog. All the comments and inworld chatter is great. Lately, I’ve seen some of you stopping by to say ‘hi’ (which I love).  Its so nice to meet you all … and hear of your shopping tales and finds. I can hug you all up!

Without the strong support of the fashion designers in SL, my blog wouldn’t exist. A ubber huge thank you to all the designers who are so gracious to send review copies and prezzies.  Love each of you. I’ve been collaborating with some … and testing out new products.  Seriously, it amazes me the endless talent in this crazy pixelated world. Okay okay enough with the gushing …

Today was one of my busiest days for The D List … I just had to stop and thank you all for everything. Please do feel free to stop by the studio (its been redesigned) or send some IMs or comments my way.

*kisses and hugs*

*Review* Convoitise

Convoitise is another great store that needs some much needed press. Toume Yao & Ondeline Pera, the co-owners, have this quaint store packed with many great finds. I was really impressed when I found them one day shopping.  Toume Yao sent over a couple of cute things for me to share.

Sweater dresses are super hot this season. Convoitise has the market cornered by pairing the other hot trends, metallics and leggings. Both dresses are very well crafted and so sweet.  I’m really happy to see more designers adding more items in with their outfits and giving multiple options.  Both come with added editions like a purse and legwarmers or double bracelets. Cute cute and more cute. Check out Convoitise to see the other colors and way more items. You will be just as impressed as I was. Its a hidden gem in the fashion world.

*Review* LaLa FooFoo: 3/4 Sleeve Wide Belt Tunics

I am such a jeans and sweater kinda girl when I see a well done tunic top.  I love love love seeing the newness coming from LaLa FooFoo. This morning, Larue Laval, the store’s owner, gave me the matching tights. They are way way too cute! A serious must-have for the fall.  The tights match this wide belted tunic.  Again, Larue gives you all the layers so for that tucked in or out look.  This store is my favorite for casual seperates.  I have been walking around in her other tops all weekend.  Everything is so easy to match with my current inventory.  The prices are down-right silly they are so low. The fat packs are bursting with colors.

*Review* (Kunglers Couture) Passions of Black Swan – Volcana

Kunglers just released this amazing couture gown for the Black Swan sim its called Passions of Black Swan – Volcana.  I was floored when AvaGardner Kungler passed me this gown with their weekly releases.  I am completely amazed by it that I had to give it its own review post.

There are so many elements at work in this gown. The most predominant are the feathers.  The Panache so elegantly wraps around the back and down the front of the gown. It has a beautiful earthiness to it, in my opinion. Perhaps is the wisps of white that is intermingled or the flame colored feather tips. This is a removable piece with a jacket layer in case you want a less dramatic gown. The low plunging bodice is heavily textured in black with the same flame tones.

The shirt is highlight with a train of all black feathers. One element that isn’t fully captured, is the hidden flame feathers in the under skirt. When walking or dancing, these features are best viewed.  They give a hint of allure and elegance.

In true Kunglers fashion, this also has a beautiful necklace.  it comes in black or re beads.  Both are equally remarkable with the gold strands.  I showed the gown using the red beads.

Overall, I am completely in love with this gown.   Kunglers Couture has yet to disappoint me. This one has really just sent me over the top.  I love dramatic gowns … this one will surely be worn to my next formal event.

*Review* Beats by Dice Beattie

Now here’s a store that is new to the feed and new to me. Its Beats by Dice Beattie. Dice’s fashions are popping with vivid colors.  Each outfit that he sent over was more unique than the next.  The few that I picked are Swirly Cyclone Bathing Suit & Jacket, Dakota Dress, and Aeroplane Dress.

The Swirly Cyclone Bathing Suit is a full one piece completely in classic Swirly hot pink. The mini grey jacket is removable.  I love that this suit is a full coverage in the bottom and completely plunging in the front. (And loving that its pink!)

The Dakota dress is packed with amazing color. The citrus leggings are so cute with this mod puff dress. A great element is that the same orange color is repeated in a bold stripe around the neckline.  Even the mini gloves are so super cute with the slouch like appearance.

My favorite is the Aeroplane dress. The color block of yellow and navy for the bodice is basic but well done as it introducing your eye to the skirt. The bell skirt is covered in mod style printed aeroplanes in that same matching golden hue as the top.

Dice even hosts a line of men’s wear.  Again, full of color with that high fashion mod look. Clean and classic with striking colors.
