{what next} Norwegian Wood @ Culture Shock

We wanted to create a living room that was less typically girlie than we usually do, but at the same time it would appeal to both sexes, with a clean, contemporary feel…the Norwegian Living Room collection is a 13 piece set, also pieces sold individually.

The two sofa choices have texture-changing options, as well as all custom couples and singles animations:

Designed also to be as low prim as it can be, the guitar bookcase seen here is only 6 prims, that includes the books too!

It has some cute props, including ‘wearable’ laptop, guitar and coffee mugs..and especially for the musicians out there, guitar animations in the sofa!

Available for now at the Culture Shock event, a CHIC event – “The first annual “Culture Shock” event in May 2011 (May 1st – May 22nd) aims to be a large and important event for the Secondlife fashion culture. Celebrating trends and trendsetters within our business, and incorperating music and art, all with reflections of our own personal first life cultures depicted in our creations”

Wonderland: Contrariwise and Epigram Dresses

SarahTheRed — Sun, 10 Oct 2010 09:59:27 +0000

Vanitas Vesture is pleased to be a part of the CHIC Call for Couture event, opening Sunday, October 10th!

The Call for Couture is about “playing with the relationship between couture (auction items) and pret-a-porter (the new exclusive releases that will be available for you to buy!)” Each designer has produced a high-end, limited-edition item for auction, the proceeds of which benefit The Samaritans, a British non-profit organization focused on mental health. Shown above is our Vanitas Vesture – Wonderland – Contrariwise Gown. Only 5 of these gowns will exist in-world, so this auction may be your only opportunity to get one.

In addition, we’ve produced a new prêt-à-porter (ready-to-wear) item for the event, based on the design of the couture item and with unlimited sales. The Vanitas Vesture – Wonderland – Epigram Dress is available in 10 colors. Both the Contrariwise Gown and the Epigram Dress are the latest release in our Wonderland series; these two are inspired by the Tweedles Dum and Dee, and their recitation of “The Walrus and The Carpenter”.

Your taxi to Vanitas Vesture at the CHIC Call for Couture event.

In other news, the Wonderland – Victoriana Silk Top, which premiered at the Wear Gray Marketplace, is now available at the Vanitas Vesture Mainstore.

Seen and Heard

So remember when everyone was speculating that Jeff Goldblum died – it was a terrible rumor started the day Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson passed. Well, I can testify to all of you die hard Jurassic Park fans… he’s alive. Very much so.

I was at Crunch (my gym) and I was working on the abs machine when I heard a guy doing chin ups. He was grunting, like UNBELIEVABLY loud. It was slightly terrifying because it was loud enough that I could hear it through my earbuds. I looked over and saw this tall, lanky man grunting as he lifted himself up. Once he stopped to go grab a drink of water, I instantly recognized him. Needless to say the man is alive and kicking. Side note: Crunch on Sunset is the gym used by the contestants on Oxygen’s “Dance Your Ass Off” show.

Paula Abdul was out and about on Sunset where Crunch is located, a little shopping center with a Trader Joe’s and a Starbucks. It just so happened the day she was filmed there I was JUST getting into the gym. Boo!

Justin Timberlake apparently lives above the Chateau Marmont in the hills in some magnificent mansion. This news is music to my ears. He was seen down the street from my apartment riding his hog!!!!

Paul Wall is following me on Twitter. The man could not be any nicer. Yesterday I found out he was in LA, so I e-mailed him to see how he was doing (he was tweeting that his son cut open his foot and had to go to the ER to get stitches). He always replies, is incredibly polite and he’s really funny too. So go ahead and follow @paulwallbaby and say a prayer for him right now as he leaves for Iraq today! True story about Paul – he wanted to name his son (Will) after my Uncle, Roger. Paul is a HUGE sports fanatic. Anyway, things didn’t work out so they named him after his grandfather, William… not knowing that my uncle’s real name is William. Crazy right?

Last night we went to this hole-in-the-wall bar called The Woods. It looks terrifying from the outside, but inside it’s like Abercrombie on steroids just with a bar and a DJ (think antlers for chandeliers). While there, I met a rapper by the name of Ill Bill. He is a part of “LCN” or La Coka Nostra and he’s REALLY nice. We hit started talking sports and it turns out he’s as HUGE Yankees fan (and has the tats to prove it). We talked about rapping and all that fun stuff. It was refreshing to meet a friendly person at a bar – and I know what you’re thinking, but I told him I have a wonderful boyfriend and we still continued to maintain a great convo.

The contestants of Project Runway this season were lodged at the Title Guarantee Building in downtown LA, aka the place I’m at every Monday and Wednesday for my internship with Chic Events!
