Fashion: Rez and Tell takes the baton and runs?

Yay! It's finally my turn in the Fashionable Relay Challenge (Sasy is so awesome for thinking this one up!) So when I checked out Shellie Toonie's post I was immediately drawn to the sock monkey slippers. First of all, they're SOCK MONKEYS!!! On your feet!!! Cuter things in the world are non-existant. So obviously they are my relay item.

Which then begged the question of what to wear for the rest of the outfit. Pajamas seemed too obvious, but how to incorporate such fun slippers in with a normal outfit? The answer was staring me in the face. In real life I hate to wear shoes when I don't have to. My feet need to be free and wiggly. But, I also can't stand to get them cold, so I'm always wearing socks or slippers. So I put together a cute little chillin' out at home at the end of the day outfit. Still dressed from being out and about, but comfortable. Check out some candid's from my impromptu chill out dance party!


And now let me break it down for you, and for the relayer following me!

Review: Rez and Tell shares Candace.

I really enjoyed watching Ryker Beck's first skin attempt for ::Genesis::, Eden. Eden turned out great, with a lot of options. So when she began work on Candace, I was really excited to see how that turned out. It turned out Candace was a little high maintenance, and after lots of bumps along the way, she's finally ready for her debut.As you can see in the image, Candace has been released in four skintones, as opposed to Eden's eight. However Candace is not without options; unlike Eden, Candace features tintable eyebrows. However like Eden, she also comes with two options for pubic hair, a set of eyes, and a bonus belly ring. Plus just look at that body, the elbows and knees are nicely formed, the breasts realistic, and oh those butt dimples!

Candace's makeups will be released in lines of eight makeups per skin. Above is Candace's "Release" line. Also in the works is a "Summer Fun" line and a "Pinups" line among others. The Release line makeups are a quality that can be expected for a perfectionist and talent like Ryker. With something for everyone, from light and classic, to dark and dramatic, and especially the colorful and perfect for spring options.

Head over to ::Genesis:: now and check out Candace!

Review: Rez and Tell gets Blitzed.

I bring with me to share with you some shapes from eeka Batz's new store, blitz. I already shared some of her shapes when I reviewed Genesis's Eden skin; Now I bring more as the store has officially opened.


As you can see blitz. carries a wide variety of shape options. Ranging from petite to tall there's something for everyone, not matter your ethnicity. I tried to represent that here. I am, of course, wearing all the shapes, but I will refer to them by their names, as like many shapes in SL, they have people type names. From left to right we have: PJ, Eyeris, and Katja.

Fashion: Rez and Tell plays make believe...

So on April 1st I went to a concert in RL. Kellie Pickler! She was playing at a local festival and I love her to pieces, dumb blonde moments and all. So in a fit of inspiration I decided I wanted to blog and SL version of both Kellie's outfit, and mine. Kellie was fashion forward while still comfy and casual. Her performance also was ah-mazings! So for your pleasure a crappy rl pic from the concert, and my versions in SL of her outfit and then what I wore.

Fashion: Rez and Tell looked cute today!

So when I plurked earlier about my cute RL outfit the awesome Cajsa Lilliehook (of "Fashionista of the Day" fame on plurk, hehe) suggested blogging an SL version. and while it isn't exact (the blazer was short-sleeved and open, the shoes pointy, and the necklace round...) it's still close enough! So here you go Cajsa! (And yes, my hair was very similar, slightly lighter and about an inch longer, but same messy waves.)

Fashion: Rez and Tell is a Baby of the 80s

The past few weeks I've been really nostalgic for the 80's. The decade of my birth is making a comeback in fashion, pop culture, and music. Bringing with it memories of a simpler time for me, one where I didn't have to worry about fitting everything into the few hours in the day, making car payments, or getting sick and not being able to pay for it.

In times of economic and personal crisis it's nice to be able to escape for just a little while. So I decided to use this nostalgia as inspiration for my set at Seven Ultra Lounge Friday night. With spinning everything from Madonna to The Police, to Rush to Rick Springfield, to Tiffany to New Kids on the Block; I needed a look that matched the fun, bright, pop mood I was trying to bring in and share.
