Bo taking a bow x3

Okay, so our Fashion Expert of the Team Judie has officially challenged me to take one outfit , dress or item of clothing from the previous weeks GGC and turn it into 3 different outfits.
Am I up to the task?! (admittedly, for me... if it's not Levi's = task LOL). This week we are featuring the MH Unique Design - Betty Dress (group gift), with reference to GGC 46.

Not sure if I want to hear the comments of my British friend. gurgles... in reality - why, YES I do!
(Judie " suck it up hun. You know me. I'm brutally honest")

Style Card info – Bo Betty Dress A "Romantical"

Judie's Comment: "Cute and feminine. Love that the shoe colour matchs the outfit, and the soft loose flowing sexy, feminine hairstyle covers the shoulders to balance out the shortness of the skirt."
Bo's Reply: Thanks! This one was easy to pull off. The Empire Shoes are so great because of all of the hud options. And they were either a FLF deal or gift, I don't remember anymore.

Bo: Accessories: .::Pulse::. Lucky Charm Necklace – Love, (7891.) Mining Bangles - Silver
Shoes: Empire - Bee Balm (hud)
Hair: Magika – Fool for Love

Style Card info – Bo Betty Dress B + PD – Black Coffee Leggin’s "KITTEN"

Judie's Comment:  "The dress is a very short sexy one but not short enough to team up with slacks, and its nipped in at the waist with a belt the slacks make it look bulky."
Bo's Reply: Those are supposed to be leggings! LOL Not poly granny elastic bunchy banded slacks that would cause bulk. (giggles) Because the shade of pink is more warm, moving toward salmon on the color chart - I thought it could be nice with black. 

Judie says, "I added fishnet stockings to cover up the legs a bit and matched the shoe colour to that black fishnets  so you have a more covered up look that you were aiming for but it flows a bit better and keeps the dress looking sexy."
Bo's Reply: Judie can pull of the fishnets. It would be super weird on Bo. 😉

Judie is wearing: Fishnets by AD Avi candy on her legs.

Bo: Accessories: Magika – Lil’ Headband (hud), Adorsy – Cat Necklace, (Breathe) Stud Bracelet - Black
Shoes: KC – MAIA Pumps (hud)
Hair: Magika – Bad Habit

Style Card info – Bo Betty Dress C "Bless her sweet l'il Heart"

Judie's Comment:  "Yeeeehhhaaaawwwww!!!! Perfect for line dancing. Can so see that you're American with this choice (and can almost see your yeehaaww whan you dance hun).  

You've kept it sexy and teamed up with the ponytail its so cute."
Bo's Reply: heyyyyy charmer 😉... always a cowgirl and I refuse to conform to Euro-style! Cowboy boots look good with everything, every day of the year! Just missing my holster!

Judie says, "Being English (and not into line dancing), i have added longer boots to cover more leg but tried to keep in the theme you were aiming at, but added a neck ribbon and a jkt (to cover Judes shoulders and to balance out my choice of longer boots). Judie is taller than Bo and with such a short dress she has to balance her legs out with longer boots."
Bo's Reply: The only comment, as a cowgirl, is that the color of the boots should match the jacket. BUT keep in mind that my wardrobe = my rules - and I'm not aware of any particular "rules" that apply to Brits. I don't have any short jackets that I could apply over the dress, but I like the idea!
Judies replies, "I do have a beige leather jacket , but it was too pale and looked washed out against the pink, so i stuck with the classic black."

And here Judie is wearing:

Addams Charlize Biker Jkt. BlackBronte neck Ribbon-GOS]Monza Belted Boots(Collabor88/Jan) OR ANE Classic Boots(FLF)

Bo: Accessories: EarthStones Callie Bangle – With Love, EarthStones – Pamela Earrings, Shades of Amber, MG Pearl Necklaces – Combo, Short Mono Colour

🍀 That was fun! Shall we try again next month maybe? 🍀

Welcome to GGC 47 Boho Chic

Welcome to GGC 47

There were just these 3 gifts in the store and all made by Gaall.

The store is called Boho Chic and seems to be a mix of Sweet Temptations, Vaxer , Gaall , Paris Fashion, KC and a skin store called Angel Rock. It's not one i have heard of but there seems to be a good choice. There is a Rezology vendor on one wall and a whole half a store dedicated to Male needs such as skins etc. A huge range of male skins for classic avatars and a company called 'Talisman'.

Its a huge store and again designed so it is easy to cam round.

BJ Challenge (cause one of us sucks) 2

It doesn't hurt to use our avatars as inspiration for real life fashion. Judie and I decided to work on the BJ Challenge (cause one of us sucks) and will explore how to dress different shapes even if the shapes we feature are unlike our usual avatar shape or our real life shapes. Surely one or more will SUCK big time! LOL

All styles are not meant for all shapes. For this first Shape Comparison post, we will post pics vertically, and comment a little more seriously than I plan to in the future. 

I decided to use the Hilly Haalen (hh) dress, which is one of the Group Gifts available at (hh). There is something there for EVERYONE and (hh) offers beautiful, updated outfits and separates for great prices as well. Pay attention for events featuring (hh), as I bought a beautiful outfit at an event last fall and it took me some work to figure out how to grow Bo up to look less like a little girl in Mommy's outfit and more like an adult woman of the world.
We are not endorsing one shop over any other, this happened to be my first choice for this week and I give the shop a big thumbs up!

Apple

In my opinion (and remember that I am not the fashion expert of our team), drawing in the waist is a good idea for Apple figures. Knee length or shorter are good, as these ladies usually have nice legs and want to accentuate that. Having a neckline too high is not good. It's probably better to try to elongate the neckline. Cap sleeves are a definite no-no, as it can make a broad shoulder with nice legs look like an American football player.
Outfit: (hh) Gift Fia Drape Dress
Accessories: Hudsons - My Harts Platinum Necklace and Earrings (gift), Lazuri Esme Bracelet, Texture Change (gift)
Shoes: ChicChica - Princess Black

Banana

This is a perfect dress for the banana shape in my opinion. Bananas can wear anything on the top to draw attention up and out. Bananas can get away with belted or wrap waistlines to create the illusion of a waist. As well... hey these girls can get away with any length dress. 

Hourglass

The key to an hourglass figure is to not cover it up. Accentuate the curves! Don't wear bulky tops or jackets or you will create the illusion of having an Apple shape. Show if off girls!

Accessories: Lazuri Dulcina La Rue SE Colors Earrings (hud), (BREATHE) October Bracelet - Silver, Sunglasses LEGENDAIRE ADRIANA SUNGLASSES BLACK (hud for frame color options)
Shoes: N-core KAREN "Red" for Maitreya High Feet
Hair: ARGRACE - Hotori 

Pear

Necklines should be a bit lower. It's important to draw the attention up to try to achieve balance. Tops should not fall at the widest part of the hip. Peplum or empire tops are usually nice - as are faux wrap tops. Just balance the sleeves and chest and dress the bottom more simply. They should either be shorter to hit at the smaller waist line or open cardigan or jacket that also doesn't hit at the widest part of the hip. Also pants that are too narrow or short make the body look choppy, so balance trousers with top and bring color UP!

Accessories: Lazuri Tres Chic Earrings, Bracelet, Necklace Rings (full hud options)
Shoes: (kokoia) - Allegra Heels (hud)
Hair: Magika - Out of Breath
