I’m not really a ‘gown’ kind of girl, but I’ve just been utterly delighted to find a DSN box with this stunning Ingenue gown inside. DSN stands for ‘Designers Showcase Network’, and for signing up (there are kiosks in world that allow you to do this..this is my way of telling you I can’t remember where I signed up) you receive random boxes of goodies to try. Obviously you’re not always going to like what you get, but I have received some utterly scrumptious items, and I class this gown amongst them. Ingenue is the brainchild of a designer called Betty Doyle, and she makes vintage and retro inspired clothing and hair from the 1920’s all the way through the 1960’s.

Put the blame on Mame Boys!
Sometimes there’s nothing nicer than an inventory raid, just to see what you have lurking in the darkest corners that you’d forgotten about. Granted, after my mahoosive inventory loss I’ve certainly not got as many glamourous outfits as I used to have, but luckily for me there are still some gems stashed away…This is one such gem, a stunning Baiastice gown, ‘Satin In Pied Des Graffiti’, and with the Lamb hair that I blogged earlier it really has an almost Gilda-esque feel, don’t you think? ( ‘Gilda’ was a film starring the phenomenal Rita Hayworth..look her up on Youtube. She was a TRUE Hollywood starlet)

Smokin’
..and I’ve called this one ‘Smokin’ because it’s a tad less in your face…Well, apart from the fact you can see my nips!
Anyway, imagine this hairstyle with an outfit from Ivalde;perfect for a 1940’s look don’t you think? Yet it’s versatile enough to work with this less refined outfit too (Well, not really an outfit to be fair, more of a bit of net with some armholes in it. I’ll catch my death!)
The colours in the pack are called ‘Butterfinger’ for the blonde, and ‘Ugly Red Lipstick’ for the red, obviously. I’m wearing both with the bang fringe options. I think you should indulge…
Scorchin’
A VERY quick post from me as I’m off to the hospital in Real Life, which is nice. Not.
Lamb, in Tableau, has released some new hair this week as part of the ‘Stumblebum Brigade’ promotion, and I must confess to being very enamoured with it indeed. It reminds me of Veronica Lake, and makes me want to channel my inner ‘Hollywood Harlot’. The style comes in a pack with two colours ( Brown and Red) and two sets of ‘bangs’ (Stupid bloody word-it’s a fringe!) for just L$125.
Both look equally fetching and I decided to take photos in both colours for your perusal. I’ve called this photo Scorchin’, because it’s a bit on the hot side…
