By request, I've created a set of bridesmaid gowns for all the upcoming spring weddings in a soft palette. Maid of honor is a ethereal chiffon dress with a wrapped and ruched surplice bodice. It can be worn with or without the black ribbon belt, which comes as a jacket layer and prim attachment. Available in Slate, Celadon, Blush, and Sky Blue.
The model is wearing: Skin: Naughty Alina - Doll Lashes, Mod Lips Hair: ETD Vivian - Strawberry Earrings: Paper Couture Black peal Drops Earrings from the River Stone Set
Night Mist is an ethereal strapless cocktail dress composed of starched black tulle printed with misty gray leaves. It has a ruched bodice with just the slightest bit of sequins and, of course, the trademark satin sash with waist bow. Available at the Mischief Cove store in the Freebie cabinet.
The model is wearing:
Skin: Popfuzz Skin Medium - Smokey Nude Hair: ETD Roslin - Espresso Jewelry: Paper Couture Black Pearl Set
On an unrelated, non-*ICING* note, I've released a set of leis at my Pixelated Petals store in the Cove. These were originally a custom job I completed for a client's tropical wedding and she has graciously allowed me to sell them in my little flower shop.
The orchid leis are available in Ivory or Pink.
Two versions of the Ti Leaf Lei are available. Shown here is the "fuller" version intended for the groom. A version with less leaves for the groomsmen is also available. All leis are fully primmed.
Okay, you knew it was coming, right? Well, here it is.
The moment I saw Anne Hathaway wearing this fabulous dress on the red carpet, I knew I had to try to make it. Miss Hathaway has a few options so you can look close to the original, or mix and match the pieces to give it a style of its own. This empire waisted chiffon gown has roses draping across the bodice and over the shoulder and has an optional flexi train and shoulder streamers (not pictured.) The roses come in two separate attachments, so you can wear just the shoulder roses, or go full bloom with both.

Lastly, Maddox DuPont of MAD Agency posted his pictures of the *ICING* Show last week and they turned out fab. Check them out here.
Thanks for all who attended the fashion show, I hope you all had as much fun as I did! MAD Agency did an incredible job with everything and I was just thrilled with the result. Here are the outfits which debuted at the show today:
First of Spring is a fresh innocent look for the new season. Pearly dupioni silk is fashioned into a sweet babydoll which features a black grosgrain ribbon detail and a garland of creamy rosettes that drape over the left shoulder.
Puma Jie, named after my favorite crazy sock pusher, is reminiscent of the 1940's. This look features a vampy ruched, high-waisted pencil skirt paired with a crisp ruby red button up top with puff sleeves. A skinny belt completes the ensemble. Harken back to the days of black and white movies and be the one who brings a punch of bright color to that monochromatic world!
Grace is a classic tea-length halter dress of starched black cotton. Grace features a gathered bust, wide sash, and asymmetrical bow detail. Elegant and flowing, it is reminiscent of a bygone era where style was at once meticulously planned and effortlessly worn.
Finally, Shimmer is an empire-waisted halter dress done in a periwinkle floral print interwoven with silver threads. The free-flowing flexi skirt is gracefully tiered with a shorter front layer that gradually tapers to a longer back silhouette. The handkerchief hem adds to the fluidity and graceful drape of this casual dress.
These are all available at the main Mischief Cove location and will slowly filter into my other locations as I gain some energy back.

Just a reminder that tomorrow, Saturday February 23rd at 4pm SLT, *ICING* will be having a show at the Kmadd Enterprisesim. They did a really great job putting together an unbelievably adorable set, and I can't wait. Four brand new and never before seen outfits will be making their debut and will be available shortly after the show at the Mischief Cove location.
I've been working overtime this week to get some new outfits together for the *ICING* show this Saturday at KMADD at 4pm, and here's a little taste. Moonlight Dance is a cocktail dress of iridescent deep blue silk with a ruched bodice and optional off the shoulder prim sleeves. The sleeves give the garment a more retro feel and can be unfriendly with some AOs, but the dress works equally well strapless.
The model is wearing: Skin: Minnu Model Skins - Pale SkinGloss-Smokey Hair: Ingenue ~ The Grable ~ Natural Black Necklace: ~Muse~ Margaux Draped Pearl Necklace (white pearl/gold clasp)
Pleasantville is a retro shirtwaist dress in crisp white cotton and black embroidery, cinched in with a black sash and finished with puff sleeves.
Luna Rossa is flowing confection of cream and taupe striped linen with red half moon accents at the shoulders and hem and a jaunty little bow at the neckline.
The model is wearing: (Pleasantville) Skin: (CS) Vogue Skin - Cashmere (Noir - Mid) Hair: ETD Juliana - Smoke Necklace: Yummy Charm Necklace in Sterling Silver Bracelet: Yummy Charm in Sterling Silver (R)
(Luna Rossa) Skin: Minnu Model Skins Pale SkinGloss- Old Hollywood Hair: ETD Tyra - Black Necklace: DAZZLE Cerise Choker (leather & enamel) - No Longer Available
I'm in the mood for something a little more sultry for Valentines Day, so here's Hearts Desire, a deep red satin strapless dress with an embellished black tulle overlay. The waist is nipped in by an inset sash, and the skirt fans out in a flourish of embroidered flowers and a contrast band at the hem. The outfit comes complete with a beaded clutch purse.
The model is wearing: Hair: ETD Sofia - Smoke Skin: Celestial Studios - *CS* Charmed Skin - 40 (red-Chic) Jewelry: Cameo set from Boing Fromage
I think we're overdue for a group gift, so here's some Valentine love for the *ICING* Update Group members. Poppy Love is a sweet little strapless babydoll that's printed in a delicate floral pattern and finished with a burgundy satin bow just under the bust. Non group members can purchase this at Mischief Cove.The model is wearing: Skin: Tuli S5 medium ~ natural 1 (group gift) Hair: ETD Peyton - Strawberry Necklace: Shiny Things Wood Elf Necklace (available for free at the GNUbie Store)
Just in time for Valentine's Day, Rose Romantique is a draped silk satin floor length gown in a shimmering pink hue. I've also created a necklace and drop earring set for this dress in silver and lustrous pearls, available separately at the Mischief Cove store exclusively:
The Princess Pearl Set is a classic princess length double strand choker with a sunburst silver clasp and includes matching teardrop pearl earrings. This set was created with the Rose Romantique in mind, but timeless enough for nearly any outfit.
The models are wearing: (Top) Skin: Minnu Model Skins - Pale SkinGloss-Smokey Hair: ETD Chalisa II - Strawberry Jewelry: *ICING* Princess Pearls Set
(Bottom) Skin: Minnu Model Skins - Pale SkinGloss-Smokey Hair: ETD Tyra - Black Top: *ICING* Femme en Noir
My new main store in Mischief Cove is all set up, and to celebrate everything at this location is 50% off until Sunday night! Note that this sale is *only* at the Mischief Cove location.
Old landmarks should work fine, come on down and take a looksie!
P.S. I'm working with a brand spankin' new motherboard now, so I'm back in gear. Woo!
Well, it looks like my damned Shuffle blew out my motherboard so I am without a decent computer for about a week. ~Cries~ So my plans for moving *ICING* and the new freebie I was working on will be delayed until my main machine is fixed, as well as any new releases until I'm up and running again. Also, my access will be touch and go until that happens, so if you have any emergencies with *ICING*, Mischief Cove or Arcana, send me an email and I'll try to handle it from my crappy little laptop. My email can be found in my profile.
Miko Channels her inner Hilton in Glitterati in Onyx.
I loved Punch Drunk's Glam Rock outfit so much that I was inspired to do a "look at me!" sequined dress of my own, but with sort of a disenchanted heiress kind of twist. Glitterati is a babydoll halter dress with a spaghetti halter tie and satin trim. It comes in Sapphire, Ruby, Onyx and Amethyst.
Also, it's a bit under 30 days, but as I'll be out of town soon I'm releasing additional colors for the Twilight gown now. You can still grab the free Amethyst color in the group notification for a few days, so make sure you get your hands on it before it rolls off.
The models are wearing: (Top) Skin: Minnu Model Skins - Pale SkinGloss-Smokey Hair: ETD Phoebe - Dirty Jewelry: Earthtones Retro Rounds Set - Black/White
(Bottom) Skin: (CS) Vogue Skin - Cashmere (Noir - Smoky) Hair: ETD Chalisa II - Smoke Jewelry: Mercury Silver and Pearl Set
I've decided that for a girlie shop, I don't have enough pink items in inventory. Therefore I present Stepford Wife, a sweet soft pink cardigan with bow detailing and a flared A-line gray skirt.
On another note, my neighbor in Mischief Cove, Mercury Couture, is bidding adieu and has marked all their accessories down to L$10! I think there's only a couple of days left, and these are pieces really worth having, so run and snap these up while you can!
And a last related note, I will be moving into their spot so I have a little more space to grow. Stay tuned for updates.

I've finally shaken off the post-holiday laziness and came up with a new outfit. Fifth Avenue is a vibrant peacock-hued printed silk top with a ruched silver cummerbund, paired with a black pencil skirt with a sexy side slit.
