--- Luxe Paris Fashion: Timeless Fashion Messaged in a Virtual Bottle ---

In 1947, the French couturier Christian Dior presented the “New Look” 

collection that not only symbolized a departure from previous styles, 

but the beginning of a new fashion society. 

Today in Second Life, Luxe Paris Fashion ushers in that same revolutionary spirit - 

creating new silhouettes of choice for the well-dressed women here in Second Life. 

So, if you prefer a timeless classic look which will never go out of style and 

the kind of style which is beautiful with simple cuts which also possesses 

exquisite natural fabric textures - then look to LUXE Paris for your fashion needs. 

LUXE Paris is a high quality fashion brand for women & men, inspired by 

the Parisian haute couture and created by the professional 

model Parisian Skytower and the fashion editor Mika Palmyra. 

Tradition is important - and so is your unique style and personality. 

That said, if you place value in your wardrobe selections, then I recommend 

that you look at Luxe Paris Fashion to satisfy those very discerning fashion tastes. 

Gowns, dresses, suits, pants, bikinis, lingerie - LUXE Paris explores the virtual 

elegance for all occasions, with quality standards made for the connoisseurs. 

If you are like me, your existing wardrobe serves you well in most cases, 

however there are times when I am looking to add to my collection 

for that particular statement without losing my classic fashion personality. 

Luxe Paris Fashion House provides both ageless beauty and style which 

you will never go wrong with. I have been shopping there going on 7 years now 

and I can honestly say that those early collections look as 

fresh and contemporary as the day I first adorned them. 

Their unique haute couture brand complements your curves 

and looks polished yet never goes over-the-top. 

It truly is Timeless Fashion Messaged in a Virtual Bottle.

 Be good to yourself and wear Paris style!

SWANK Events January '19 Introduces JUNA's BIBY Tattoo - Bringing Crafted Elegance into Second Life

Body art tattoos have been a form of self-expression for centuries. 

Anthropologists and archaeologists are constantly finding new evidence of body 

art dating back to the Stone Age. Ancient tattoo tools have been discovered by 

archaeologists in Portugal, France, and Scandinavia that are over 12,000 years old. 

Body art has therefore been a form of personal expression dating 
back to our primal existence in time.  The art conveys and communicates 
feelings, experiences, and ideas through the use of our bodies as the canvas. 

Today tattoos have also become more of a fashion statement. 

As a girl. I love wearing fashionable clothing and how different colors, patterns, 

and fabrics transform my look, boosting my confidence and changing my personality. 

The use of tattoos here in Second Life can certainly complement your look, 

thus becoming an integral part of your wardrobe ensemble. 

I have found that most tattoo artists possess a particular 

style in which they enjoy expressing. 

Looking at Juna’s work, she includes styles such as neo-traditional, new-skool and 

realistic tattoo styles such as this colorfully elegant Biby floral neck tattoo. 

As a creative and versatile artist, Juna’s artistic savvy combines dark imagery 

with vibrant color to create a unique and sophisticated style that is like no other. 

Juna’s artwork covers the whole spectrum, appearing equally as 

comfortable working in vivid colors as she does in blacks & grays. 

She is, however, better known for her bold and brightly colored tattoos - 

creating works of art that look as though they may jump right off of your body! 

I really love how Juna artfully composed with this Biby Tattoo creation.
I refer to it simply as "crafted elegance" by the way it graces the neck.

This feminine floral theme is happy and fresh. It comes with an applier Hud 

for your mesh Body in 3 tones (Dark 100%, Medium 75% and Light 50%) 

It also seamlessly combines in composition with an mesh head applier Hud 

in 3 tones (Dark 100%, Medium 75% and Light 50%)

SWANK Events January '19 Introduces the JUMO Fashion's Susie Dress - Its' playful look adds charm and pizazz to your conviviality!

The off-shoulder Jumo Susie Dress takes playful frocks to the next level. This 

21st century dress is simple & pretty, without being too juvenile, sexual or risqué.

The babydoll dress first began life as a short, sleeveless nightgown with an 

empire waist and a tent-like silhouette made from delicate flowing 

fabrics and then paired with matching panties. 

Its’ original design was similar to that of dresses worn by young children and 

their baby dolls which brought a certain innocent playfulness into the bedroom. 

Henceforth, the name “babydoll” came into play, parodying the 

infantilization of women dressing up as little girl dollies. 

During the 60’s, the babydoll became a revolutionary facet of the mod culture, 

representing a complete abandonment of the appropriate female stereotype. 

Self-determined fashion symbolized the epitome of the youth-quake revolution. 

After falling out of fashion for a few decades, the babydoll has since 

made an emphatic return with a chic casual & feminine look - 

attracting the millennial’s interests and fashion trends. 

This flowy Jumo Susie Dress touts puffed sleeves with ruffled cuffs, 

a strapless straight-across off-shoulder neckline, empire waistline 

and a loose-fit ruffled circle skirt with a well-above-the-knee hem. 

Its' playful look adds charm and pizazz to your conviviality! 

In addition to the JUMO Originals Susie earrings set provided, this gorgeous 

mesh outfit also comes with a color & texture HUD applier. 

This applier provides 25 different colors option grouped into three 

different texture styles for that perfect look you wish to make.

SWANK Events January '19 Showcases the YGTL Designer Nails Series - Gracing Your Hands While Complementing Your Fashion Statement

When it comes to nail art trends here in Second Life, 

YGTL is the expert on what’s hot and on trend.

The spectacular YGTL Designer Nails series is now premiering at Swank Event's.
It is exquisitely vogue, very chic and intrinsically linked to high fashion.

The YGTL Designer Nails series graces your hands while complementing 

your wardrobe appearance, no matter what the season.

Like lipstick and perfume, the art of painting nails has ancient origins. 

Nail polish originated in China as early as 3000 BC. 

In Ancient Egypt, nail polish was even used to signify class rankings: The lower 

class often wore nude and light colors, while high society painted their nails red. 

Actress Rita Hayworth popularized red nail polish. After the introduction of 

Technicolor, Rita’s bold nails catapulted the modern nail polish movement. 

Today, over $900 million dollars annually is spent on this fashion statement worldwide.

There are 13 different types of nail polish finishes. 

They include shimmer, micro-shimmer, micro-glitter, glitter, frost, lustre, 

crème, prismatic micro-glitter or shimmer, iridescent, opalescent, 

matte, duo-chrome, and translucent. 

These artfully crafted manicure gems will not only be noticed, but 

also commented on. Wearing this vogue nail art is about as classy as it can get. 

So, for that “nailicious” look, feast your diva eyes upon this YGTL color & texture HUD applier which provides you with 15 different designer nails
for that perfect statement you wish to make.

SWANK Events January '19 Premiers the SAS Crystal Black Gown - Fun, sexy, elegant and feminine all rolled into one gorgeous package.

The deep plunge backless look gets new life with SWANK Events

introduction of this SAS Crystal Black Gown. 

The look is edgy and incredibly gorgeous. Whatever the event, 

this gown will certainly deliver and bring out the woman in you. 

Whether you’re attending a ball, an elaborate charity gala,
or just going out with someone special, this backless dress 

is a figure-flattering and stylish option to consider. 

This long full length black backless gown is elegant and visually striking. 

Many guys will certainly stare at you the moment you arrive and will 

 become absolutely mesmerized by you in this stunning dress. 

Fun, sexy, elegant and feminine―these are just a few of the
adjectives that come to mind when I look at this dress. 

I love the faint gold embroidery of the bodice and how the same embroidered 

design is recalled along the hemline of this skirting. This combination 

of the black and gold really makes an eye-catching view. 

By design, this gown accentuates the femininity of a woman's figure. 

The sexy quotient of the dress runs deep into its anatomy, starting 

with its wonderful plunging sweetheart neckline. 

This showstopping number hugs your curves in all the right places - 

while beautifying your bare shoulders and letting your décolletage do the talking. 

The delicate beadwork piping and straps complement the gold swirling 

embroidery gracing the bodice and the laced hem skirting of this gown. 

To wear this particular dress for that special occasion, you will 

need to pull it together with the appropriate accessories. 

Finding the right balance is key. That said, pay heed to tiny details, 

for they will definitely add to make a stunning statement. 

Don’t go overboard with too much bling. You don’t need a lot. Just be sure not 

to under-accessorize and then find yourself left looking unfinished or overly bare. 

Behold the beauty that is yours wearing this fabulous SAS Crystal Black Gown.

SWANK Events January '19 Introduces Vips Creations Emma Dress - Ladies, it is like having your body wrapped in precious metals.

If there is one message that defines one’s sensual side, it is the idea of 

dressing in clothes which both illuminate and enhance your figure at once. 

And, while there's nothing new about a silver lamé dress, 

Vips Creations' take on it with her Emma Silver Dress has a resolutely 

fully fashionable and sexy on-trend metallics sheen. 

The vision of this dress’ shimmer is less about practical everyday use 

and more to do with evening-wear elegance. 

So, if you think of being wrapped in precious metals, you're well on your way. 

For me, nearly everything that bee Tizzy at Vip Creations touches turns into 

a must-have. Without exception, this evening cocktail dress is one in particular. 

It is surely one of the coolest day-to-night dresses that I’ve seen in a while. 

Looking closely, the shine factor of this dress is mixed with other surprising 

and delightful interwoven textures & details as well. 

Its petite metallic patterning combined with the blended use of 

delicate lacing, halter piping and keyhole peekaboo detailing at 

the cleavage reveals a sophisticated and very sexually astute look. 

This fashion forward statement takes on an artful approach with 

its match-up of monotone colors, materials and proportions. 

I paired this dress with silver Renegade Brooke Stilettos
and AvaWay's Carrie necklace & earrings along with her
Georgia Armlets and Lina bracelets.

So Ladies, if you dare wear this dress, please prepare to
rake in the compliments all day (and night) long.

SWANK Events January '19 Premiers the LUXE Paris Scholar Top & Skirt - Reaching Beyond the Fashion Forward Trends

Are you worried that you’re going to show up at your next academic 
event in Second Life and find yourself entirely over, or under, dressed? 

Believe me, you are not alone - for wearing the right type of clothing 

at such an event after all is statement of your competence in styling. 

Fashion is no minor issue here. It defines who we are, it reflects our values 

and displays how we wish to appear. Fashion statements also send 

influential messages for both leisure and for work. 

That said, being conscious of how you dress reaches beyond a desire to be fashion 

forward or on trend. Think of your clothing as a tool just like anything else. 

Thoughtful consideration of what to wear will help you feel confident in 

how you look so you can focus on what really matters to you. 

This LUXE Paris Scholar Outfit is trimmed down to such purpose. 

Out of the box, it reveals the well-known Luxe Paris brand of 

quality styling composed of tastefully coordinated staples. 

It comes with a beautiful pullover pink knit scoop neck sweater, soft geometric 

cross-patterned gray skater skirt (with minimalistic belted detailing) and a pair 

of sexy open toe perforated stiletto booty shoes with quick release buckles. 

I added a simple fedora hat, matching gold HJ Stars & Pearl necklace & earrings 

paired with a matching taupe gray handbag as statement pieces 

to complement and create this very chic and stylish look. 

Luxe Paris Fashion is well known for creating unique product lines which provides
distinct collections not offered by others in the Second Life marketplace.

For all of those who have curated your own capsule wardrobe, this 

LUXE Paris Scholar Outfit is exquisite minimalism at its very finest.
