Lucky Chair gift: Pizzicato Poppies

I found Elle Kirshner's gossip bench so charming when I saw it on the feed that I thought it would be fun to make a lucky chair out of it. So of course I had to make a lucky chair exclusive release to celebrate its inauguration! Pizzicato Poppies is named after one of my favorite flowers, and it's a cheerful white spagehtti strap sundress adored with blooming poppies along the skirt and accented with a mandarin orange obi style belt with a bright pink ribbon.

Come on down to the *ICING* mainstore to see if your letter is up. :)

Orchid Delight

I must be in a flowery mood! This week's release is Orchid Delight, a lightly ruched black cocktail dress with off the shoulder sleeves and skirt that is gathered into a side flounce. Subtle vines adorn the bodice and burst into a vibrant bouquet of tropical orchids which intertwine one sleeve.

The model is wearing:

Earrings: from the Paper Couture River Stone Set

Skin: []::Tuli::[] Meredith [ light ] fuschia folly

Hair: ETD Anisa - Smoke

Eyes: Fashionably Dead Blue Eyes

Lashes: Cake - Bedroom Lashes

Casablanca

Another new release for this weekend! Casablanca is a ivory duchess satin dress with a sculpted flounce over a slim pencil skirt and embellished with a spray of lilies across the single sleeve, bodice and skirt. It can also be worn without the sculpted portions as a more traditional strapless dress.

This gown is roughly modeled after the stunning Dior gown Dita Von Teese wore to the Chopard Trophy Award a couple of years ago. I saw it, instantly fell in love with it and wanted a version in SL, and when I finally picked up Zbrush I wanted it to be my first sculpted experiment.

The model is wearing:

Jewelry: Paper Couture Moonlight Necklace set

Skin: []::Tuli::[] Meredith [ light ] sweet sixteen

Hair: Ingenue ~ Lamour ~ Noir Black

Eyes: ::Grants.TransparencyShineEyes::ClearGray

Lashes: Cake - Bedroom Lashes

New Release and Blogger Appreciation Week

Here's a slightly revamped version of the dress I gave away at the Shopping Cart Disco prom, up for sale now. Enchanted River is a ethereal chiffon gown in periwinkle. It features a sweetheart neckline, lined chiffon prim skirt and sculpted draped off the shoulder sleeves, which can be removed if you prefer a simple strapless look.

Also, for Blogger Appreciation Week, I'm giving away an exclusive, blogger-only version of this dress in a soft pink, called Cotton Candy.

Callie Cline has thoughtfully declared 5/8 through 5/15 Blogger Appreciation Week, and it's a wonderful idea!  Without the help of many great bloggers, I don't think I would have ever really gotten *ICING* off the ground, so thank you for all the hard work that you do.  

Since I'm a bit of a scatterbrain and I really don't want to forget about anyone, if you're a blogger, please IM me this week with your blog and the name of an item from my store and I'll send it your way as my wholehearted thanks!
