Good Princess vs. Bad Princess!

Hey all you lovely glamouristas, Tesh here.

Let’s not deny it: sometimes we girls just need to feel like a princess ... you know, when we crave that extra li'l attention that we know we all (TOTALLY) deserve!! I was in prime Princess mode today but couldn't decide whether to be a good girl, traditional (fairytale) Good Princess, or a bad girl, modern (big city) Bad Princess. So I came up with 2 looks: one for each mood.

*NOTE: this "Bad Princess" outfit is not to be mistaken for "Naughty Princess." -- THAT will have to be another post, focused more on the straight-up smokin' SEXY, hee hee . . .

First up: Good Princess (she adores a good fairy tale). Ya know, it’s the usual -- so many toads, so few princes. Especially in SL! What’s a fashionista girl to do? Sigh. Oh and that's a toad btw that I'm kissing in the pic, lol. A real smelly one.


Next up: Bad Princess (this girl makes her own fairy tale). Hey, Bad Princess truly rules her own playground -- the big city. Just don't mess with her or she'll throw down some 'tude.


Yeah, kisses from cute guys are pretty much mandatory in Bad Princess' kingdom. Actually it’s like, the law.



Aaaah, sweet day. Nuthin’ like a little Prince action to wind it all down – preferably the tall, dark + handsome kind, with a few dancing skills. I highly recommend getting yourselves one of these as soon as possible. Kinda the ultimate accessory, hee hee.

Many many thanks to photographer Margaux Dufaux (ok she IS the most talented photog on the grid – go check out M2C Photography NOW!!) + to our male model Gavin McGinnis (one of my fave guys on the grid!!) for so generously donating their time + talents to this suuuperfun shoot.

Shot on location in SL in 2 drop-dead gorge SIMs: the hidden candy-pink princess castle floating above Betwixt and in the neon skyways of Sick (decayed Tokyo).

From Day to Night!!!

One day I was out scouring the grid for some great goodies to report and I ran into Teshan2222 Wycliffe, group member and newest model. I was looking for some things for a post and when I ran into her she looked awesome and she had on some nice goodies that I recognized and some I didn't so I asked her to pose for me and she came with 2 looks. One for daytime work and one for evening time casual.

First the daytime work look. I recognized right off the gift from MEB 0 button down corporate shirt w/ black skirt + bangle ($1L or free from the MACOS/HipHop mall). Lots of great goodies at this mall be sure to have a look around. Maybe more to come from this mall . Not to be missed. Added to that she had on Ginza - mini birdcage gold jewelry - necklace + earrings (Slice of Summer hunt gift - free) by Ginza Jewelry. I loved this adorable little necklace with great details. The sweet little birdy has a flower on it, soooooooooo kyoot. Also Zenith Fashions ballerina platforms (Slice of Summer Hunt gift - free) by Zenith Clothing. The finishing touches to this outfit are Free Speerit Eyes-10 colors look again (wearing Sea) - $1L, Alady prim lashes (free from Alady Island), Glance Adriana skin (was free from the mirrors hunt), and Damselfly - Fallyn-Brown Caramel (not free).

Carrying over the accesories and finishing touches into the evening for a more casual look she changes gears with low-cut sweatpants, cutoff top + shirt: Twisted & Spoiled group gift (free when you join group). She also added Cynful gloves kiss - white (not free).

Thanks to Teshan2222, all the great and generous designers and to all of you that support us. Enjoy and new post coming up soon including wrap up of our very first fashion show.
