84. Embrace Your Fate...

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

So, I'm back with some more great stuff from FATEwear today.  I've shown you a couple casual looks and a couple more formal looks in my last post.  This time I've decided to go in the middle ground.  I've even worked in my favourite colour: red!  Or, to be specific Volcano.

Check out the detail in the fabric texture!

FATEwear has a great palette of colours and Damien has even gone out of his way to name the shades.  You won't find white, green or black at FATEwear.  Oh no, you get forest, tundra and void!

I've combined the untucked Hei volcano shirt (tundra tie included) with the tundra pants from the Smith Suit outfit.  This goes against the rule of thumb for FATEwear as anything with the same name is made to fit together.  For example, if a shirt is named Jimmy and pants are named Jimmy.  Those two pieces will fit together perfectly.  But, as you can see here, don't be afraid to mix and match.  Although these designs have different names, they still work together well and look amazing together.

Lastly, check out my awesome new chair that I picked up at faMESHed this month!  It rocks, right? I love these classic designs come to the grid.  Would have liked the leather to be a bit more detailed and it seems the poses are more geared to female AVs.  But, all the same, I have it set up in my library and it looks great!

54. Make A Splash!

Ok.  So, I have this external pressure to do underwear from time to time.  Now is the time!  I made my way to Vitamen recently to pick up their group gift for May/June.  They are tight, they are white and they are free!  What's not to love?

This set includes the white boxers with the gold waistband featured in the main photo along with the all white version in the inset photo.  Go grab some.  Did I mention they were free?

Oh!  And Butter ... do these pass the sexy quality control test? LOL

36. Ready to chill.

Here it is, Friday again already!  I hope everyone made it through the week and is ready to have a great weekend. 

I've got a couple of great finds to share with you today.  The first being this great new skin from Nivaro.  I'm wearing the Vasean skin in the summertone in these pictures, but it comes in 8 shades with 3 body hair options in addition to shaven and stubble options.  The sensual and masculine look of this skin will definitely gain you some admirers.

 

The second great find this week was this shirt, shorts and shoes outfit in mesh that I got from Spearsong.  The look is pure relaxed comfort (which I'm all about) with fresh colours and clean lines.  The outfit includes the shirt in and shorts in 4 sizes and includes and additional white plaid pair of shorts not shown here.  There is a variety of colours sold in sets and separately at the store.  It's well worth checking out.

Fashion For Life: March 10 to March 20, 2012

Today, March 10th, marks the start of the sixth annual Fashion For Life event and it's HUGE.  It's not often that you get to put your shopping to good use.  But this is one of those times.

 I came back from the event with my arms full.  It's kind of hard not to after making your way through 9 sims of shops and gacha machines.  So, I'll show you my findings over a few entries.  But, today, I have to show you this HOT jacket from Lapointe & Bastchild.  I know, I know.  Their stuff is always amazing.  But, this jacket is only going to be available during the event at their event store their or their mainstore.  You don't want to miss out on getting one: mixing the coolness of black denim with the sexiness of black leather, this jacket hits all the right points.  Have a look...
 

All of the talented designers involved with this amazing event, supporting the American Cancer Society, provide us with lots of ways to shop and make a difference!

I've been looking forward to this event for a couple of reasons.  This is a cause that is very important to me as I lost my Mom to cancer last August and know just how devastating this disease is.  Not only for the patient but for their loved ones as well.  Secondly, tomorrow, March 11th, would have been my Mom's 65th birthday.  So, I dedicate this entry into my blog to her and just hope that it will encourage at least one person to support the event.  Every linden matters...every linden is a step closer to a cure.

The Black Leather Jacket.

A guy just can't go wrong with a stylish leather jacket.  Whether you are throwing on jeans and a tee or going with a tie, the right leather jacket can definitely make a statement.

Obviously, I went with the laid back approach again.  This mesh leather jacket from Kal Rau is a sure fire attention getter and offers up a lot of variety for your wardrobe.  With 3 different sizes and 6 different tee shirts, this jacket will be a staple in no time.

As always, I've thrown in some of favourite accessories to add some excitement to the monochromatic look.  These new mesh sunglasses from [JP]:dsg. are loaded with textures options for the lenses, frame, logo and bridge.  I've brought the pink from the glasses down to my Kicks from Entente and echoed the blue accent with Cobrahive' Ear Swirl.
