While still fighting to have enough free time to spend in SL, I luckily managed to place under my little Christmas tree a nice present for all of you.
Enjoy this sexy see-through gown during these cold holidays!

I wish you a very Merry Christmas, and all the best for 2010.

Hello dears.
Long time no news (lol). That's because my RL has been requiring more and more of my time, thus leaving nearly none for me to work on SL.
First of all, let me say I do wish to make some kind of come back, and hopefully will be able to release some goodies during these holidays.
Then, I am sorry to inform you all that Rubystarlight Writer's boutique, Little Black Book (formerly Starlight Exclusives) is going to close down very soon, on the 17th of December.
I decided that, until then, I will place a little freebie next to the items I had created for the fall collection, just as a way to say farewell to this store.
If anyone wants to grab the gifty and make their last purchases in this shop (reminder: there are creations by many different designers!), here is a LINK to the inworld location.
À bientôt!
Clio
Yes, my lovelies, I am not dead!
I have had some problems logging in due to an RL change of location (with all the mess this implies when we talk of an internet connection!), so I couldn't be present much for all of you.
But guess what? I have recently signed up for the second collection at Starlight Exclusives! It will be for this Winter. The big news is that this time a theme has been set, to make sure ALL the exclusive items from ALL the designers involved will nicely blend together under the same roof.
The theme is Cocktail Hour!
Couldn't it be better for such a maniac of 'chic' as myself? I can already guess we'll see some very interesting things this November ;)
While I have already started working on the concept of my new exclusive cocktail outfit, I thought I'd do something nice for eveyone and I LOWERED THE PRICE ON MY FALL SEASON EXCLUSIVE DRESS!
It is now over 30% OFF, in preparation for the new collection!
Make sure to visit Starlight Exclusives boutique! [TP TO STARLIGHT EXCLUSIVES].
Love,

New design out on my walls!
This dreamy dress is very different from my usual releases, and it's dedicated to an SL friend and fellow designer.
Amutey DeCuir, owner of Bliss Couture, has been a dear friend for a long time, and when I saw the gown she made for Starlight Exclusives I absolutely loved the primwork on the skirt.
I wanted to make something similar, soft, airy and chic at the same time.
That's how I came up with this cute dress with a LOAD of prims flowing gently in the air.
The skirt is not too long while it sits quite high on the waist line. It is made up of three pieces to follow your legs while dancing and ensure a perfect coverage.
The top has a vaporous attachment, as well, going all around the breasts and shoulders.
A pair of sheer gloves is included.

The time has come to write something about Starlight Exclusives design I baked for this first fall season.
When Rubystarlight Writer, founder and CEO of Starlight Exclusives, contacted me this summer, I felt so honoured that I was given the chance to be one of the few creators selected to make exclusives items to sell at her awesome new boutique.
So, this first exclusive outfit is inspired by fall season.
Here in Italy, fall means a lot of things: leaves start falling, the air gets cooler, days get shorter...
But one particular event that is very strictly related to autumn in this region is the collecting and selling of grapes.
This is what I thought as I was looking for a theme for my design. I thought that instead of focusing on the leaves or on the cold weather, I would let vintage be the protagonist.
Grapes and wine suggested me one main idea of joy, merriment... and folly, the happy folly that arises in you when you have good wine during a nice dinner with friends.
It is not a secret that I have been experimenting with very dangerous leg showing and wild, uneven skirts... so I restored the burlesque atmosphere I had created with my Queue de Paon and rivisited the style to make it fit autumn.
I wouldn't say I made it a Victorian outfit (far from that), but I tried to give it a retro look: something between a witch outfit and a courtesan robe. Both these figures have some folly in them, I thought. A witch is an evil and rather twisted lady, while courtesans... well, I bet they used to have quite a lot of wine:)
As my usual, I went with more than one colour option.
A ruby red version was necessary, since wine -and, to me, wine is mainly RED WINE- had been the starter of all my inspiration.
Then, well, what would fall be without falling leaves? I called my fallen leaves version "Sunset", thinking sunset is that moment in the life of a leaf, while it flows down slowly towards its 'death' when meeting the ground.
The last colour is there to represent the cool air, the windy days that take summer away and clear the way for winter.
This is what was buzzing in Clio's head as she was drawing and arranging prims around her waist, chest and head. I hope people will be able to catch some of the meaning of the whole dress even without reading these words... but maybe they'd need to be as crazy as me for that, and I don't really wish that to anyone (lol).
Oh... I was about to forget!
Stay tuned for my new release coming this weekend!!! Dedicated to a friend:)
Many hugs and best wishes for a lovely day!

Hello dears!
I have a new and special release waiting for you!
It's a recolouring I did of one of my latest (and favourite) designs: the Sabina Gown.
Since when I release Sabina I only offered dark and rich colours, I decided that I would add an extra tone for those of you who like light and delicate hues :)
ONLY AVAILABLE AT SWEETHEARTS JAZZ LOUNGE: Sabina in Lilac!
100% hand drawn and fully transferable for gifting ;)
Cheers!
