Today is an all Maitreya and M*A*ii*K*I day for me.  I could seriously spend hours in that store, and I would end up buying EVERYTHING they have.  So, it is no surprise to me that when I found these items, I HAD to have them!  I absolutely love this tight, strapless black dress which has gorgeous textures and fits the body exactly the way it should.  Paired with one of my favorite belts in SL, this white high-waisted patent belt, I think it makes for a killer combo.

Adding to my list of Maitreya / M*A*ii*K*I items, I am wearing my FAVORITE shoes in SL...the Maitreya Virtue shoe in Patent Black.  I could really wear these everyday and never get sick of them!!!!  Luckily, for your sake, I won't!  But, today I just couldn't help myself!!!!  And yet again, accessorizing was a cinch.  Since I have tons of black and white accessories in my inventory, I selected this gorgeous big-bead choker, adorable black and white bangles, and simple, yet elegant opal studs.

I hope everyone is having a great extended weekend so far and enjoying opening Saturday of COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!!!!  WAR EAGLE!!!!!

Be sure to check back tomorrow for more!

Happy Sunday!  I wish tomorrow wasn’t Monday… : (

Anyway, I’m back with more adorable back-to-school fashions!  This time I rocked an ultrapopular look: punk chic.  : )

Hop on over to Fashion Ascension for more…

Even though I haven't been in high school for a very long time, I am in-touch enough to know that punk chic is a very popular look these days.  Characterized by a mixture of black and pink along with any other bright colors you can find to splash against a black background, punk chic is the perfect blend of punk rock and sheer cuteness.  : )

Since this look is a favorite among girls who like to think outside the box, especially those anti-blondes, I knew I couldn't rock this look without super-dark hair.  Also, I knew I needed to find as many black clothing items as possible, and when I found this adorable black baby tee with ultrabright palms trees, I knew I had struck punk rock gold!

Then, add to the recipe these adorable leggings, which came free with a pair of shorts I bought at Random Fashions, and a ultrachic pink skirt to top off the perfect dark look.  And, of course, no punk chic look would be complete without those trusty pink and black striped slippers.  Supercute and supercomfy, these adorable slippers are a MUST for any punk-rock chica!

For accessories, again, you have to rock as many black items as possible, so I went for attention-worthy black and white bangles, a splash of pink sapphire in another bangle to add a touch of glam, and lovely dangle earrings in white, black and grey.  But my favorite accessory has to be the mixtape necklace, which adds a touch of ROCK 'N' ROLL to the whole look!  : )  Trust me, my punk rock avie turned some heads!

Not that we're cracking any kind of huge mystery here, but you know one of the reasons Communism flopped was because nobody had any choices. That's why we love the spirit of the DeTox-ReTox promotion at the Avalon Hotel in Beverly Hills. Every Sunday this summer from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., its blue on blue poolside lounge will offer selections to either keep the Saturday night party raging or ease your pain. (Our favorite hangover description is from "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," courtesy of Lou Grant: Did you ever feel so sick you'd have to rally to die?) The options:

DeTox Drinks

Mixed berry smoothie with bee pollen ($8).

Sparkling pomegranate lemonade ($6).

Pitcher of cucumber/lemon water ($3).

ReTox Drinks

Build your own Bloody Marys ($14).

Mimosas & mixers ($14).

DeTox Menu ($8 each)

BBQ brisket sliders

Thai chicken with cucumber cream

Fingerling-ricotta baked tater

Crab and corn hushpuppies

Spicy beef rice wraps

ReTox Menu ($8 each)

Tuna sashimi & pina-soy colada

Scallop ceviche

Salmon BLT flatbread

Duck and apricot strudel

Chicken and vegetable pot pie

No doubt that sometimes a greasy burger is the perfect hangover cure, but trust us when we tell you that those spicy beef wraps (above, right) can provide just as much comfort with 38 times the taste. And if you can eat them in a swanky, modern spot in the sun, so much the better.--Victor.
