Class Of 1970

As you must know from my first post, I loooove summer! I also love the 70s. You know, all the free-spirit thing, the glorious music, but above all, I love 70s fashion! So I thought I could mix and match: a true 70s summer! And the results are beyond everything I expected.

Let's start with the Indyra Originals Aamani outfit in garnet. You know The Who's song "Gypsy Queen"? Well here you go! Great details as always with Indyra with a flex skirt and flex top.

Also worn:
Tuli Elizabeth skin
N-core ankle boots
Maitreya coin necklace
Maitreya coin belt
ETD Laine hair

Next one up is the tremendous Mimikri 5th avenue dress. Flower Power with this "hand-sewn" floral dress. The flowers on the skirt are a prim attachment and give a real hand-sewn look. Add the rustle skirt attachment and jabot top and you get a fantastic dress. A proper work of art!

Also worn:
N-core Prelude heels

The D-Design Melissa set is pure hippie fashion. Knitted texture and a colourful belt. Simple and sexy. Wear it at WoodSLock!

Slmaps: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Four/70/39/2101/

Also worn:
GOS espadrilles

Mimikri again for the Nova set available in a variety of colors. Ever dreamt of having a part in "That 70s show"? Fabulous pants texture with flares and cuffs attachment, great belt, and a nice flex top. Mimikri is definitely one of my favorites!

Also worn:
nothing! woohoo!!!

Finally, be a sexy hippie with the Crochet! Patchwork set. There are loads of fab outfits and bikinis at Crochet! but this little one really has that "flower child" looks. Fine texturing again. Perfect to stand out at a beach party.

New Author On SL Model Case - Jeannie Svenson

(Model: Jeannie Svenson)

I am so thrilled to announce we have a new writer on SL Model Case. Her name is Jeannie Svenson and she will be writing reviews as well as keeping you up with the latest news. I will let her introduce herself, but honestly I am thrilled to have her joining SL Model Case, so a huge welcome to her! You can check out her first post below titled "Sandy Toes".

•★••★••★•

Hello!

I'm Jeannie Svenson and I'm new here. So here are a few words to introduce myself. I've been on SL for quite a few years now (though with previous accounts) and I just think fashion in Second Life has become fantastic! I was around when you had to wear those awful layered skirts and what designers do now is like magic to me. My posts on SLmodelcase will try and reflect this. 

By the way, I'm a French girl and there's one thing I like more than fashion: meeting people! So feel free to IM me inworld.

Welcome again Jeannie!

Sandy Toes

Summer is here and beach parties and beach clubs are spamming the events search. There are quite a few cheap (even free) and cute bikinis out there but if you’re looking for that special “designer touch”, check out this little selection.

First left is the Boho Bikini by *LeeZu Baxter*. This inspired boho chic bikini is very finely detailed and comes with a sarong, a flexi knot and a very unusual cascading flowers attachment for the bra.

Next to it is *BOOM*’s Floral White Infinity Bikini. For a more tropical feel try this simple yet nicely textured bikini with prim knots. The elements of the bikini are sold separately so you can choose between bikini top, halter, bikini bottom, thong, tushie kini and boys shorts.

Far right, you’re looking at Kyoot’s Argyle Halter Bikini. A Riviera look for private beaches with prim bows for top and bottoms. Comes in orange, teal, argyle and black.

Worn:
Tuli Hair - Hairy situations (doesn't exist anymore)
[Gos] Espadrilles - white/charcoal/meadow
