“For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”

Audrey Hepburn

Hello everyone, for those of you who want to see the stunning fashion available at Mimi's Choice one more time, or for those of you who were unable to be at the inworld event here is a recap of what was on show

The event was well supported and those that attended enjoyed the stunning fashion along with their coffee and croissants.

The event kicked off with an outfit from Anubis Style designed by Anubis Hartunian. Wearing Robin of Anubis Style, Baila Palmira looked ready for a walk on the Champs Elyssee in Paris. The silk blouse in soft brown and yellow is complimented with trendy yellow gloves and a lovely scarf draped on her head, and the big sunglasses make the look perfect!  Baila also wore the new Kalnin shoes, called Audrey, designed by Maris Kanto. The shoes have an amazing hud, complete with colour.

Next down the red carpet was Pheonix Reyer wearing beige suit combo 6 from Hoorenbeek.  Mimi commented “I'm so glad I have brand new suits from Hoorenbeek available in my shop now.”  Pheonix looked so gorgeous in this classic Hoorenbeek suit in beige, one of the most versatile and complete suits available on the grid.  You can wear it closed or open, with or without vest.  All layers included, with highly detailed textures. The beige suit was complemented with the white suit shirt and a bordeaux red tie. This shirt has 2 collar styles and 9 tie collars.  Completing this outfit were Hoorenbeek shoes, a must have for every man. Gentlemen, you can seduce any woman wearing a suit like this.

Phoenix was followed by Koffie Juniper wearing SF Designs.  swaffette Firefly made this Anita outfit for the Vintage fair.  Mimi sand the team combined it with the amazing new Coquette glitter shoes from N-core.   Mimi believes that N-core is one of the best brands of shoes available in SL and she says “I’m very excited Nuria Augapfel of N-core has shoes available at Mimi's Choice now.”  The SF Design Anita Cocktail Dress - is a classic black flapper style dress - vintage but bang up to date too with its low back and wide band of embroidery across the hips. This cocktail dress features sculpted sleeves in a sheer fabric and a fringe that is designed to jiggle with your Charleston!   Have a look the great vintage hair style that's included - colour change and tied with a band to match your dress.

The gorgeous Meimei Shiu looked so chic in an outfit from Orage Creations, designed by Elettra Gausman. This outfit is called Zebra Chic.  The luxurious short jacket with ruffled sleeves, a wide collar and a matching bra will surely get you noticed wherever you go. Stylish, flared pants with a touch of sexy are the perfect complement and make this trendy look extremely versatile.  Notice also the fingerless gloves and the very chic hat - accessories that make Zebra Chic a fashion statement to be reckoned with!  Meimei wearing the hair attachment and hair base of Laq, perfect for all hats. You can find it in all colours at Mimi's Choice at a special price.

Taylor is a gorgeous outfit of Utopia, designed by saby Clary and worn by Willy Oakleaf.  The outfit has a night and day version in the folder.  During the day you can wear pants and shirt in black or white, combined with the argyle sweater and belt under it. You can take off the coat or wear the coat with an extra fur collar when it's freezing outside.  If you are hitting the night scene, wear pants and coat, but with the white shirt and under jacket in black, which is very stylish.  This is a fabulous outfit that can be worn in many combinations. There is something for every man of style and confidence, no matter what the occasion is!

Next Payton Heron graced the red carpet wearing Monterray, designed by Journey McLaglen of Prism. A fabulous satin shine in mocha and caramel colours makes this outfit perfect for a sunny afternoon sitting outside a Parisian cafe.  Perfect for daily wear are the wide-brimmed hat and the long, hands-free gloves. Take them off at night and enjoy yourself in a trendy nightclub - you will be the look of the night!  Not to be missed, the pants feature gorgeous cuffs in a bubble shape, made from sheer material.  Monterray is the ultimate look combining classic elegance with youthful beauty.  Payton wore the brand new Ultra platform shoes from N-core in a matching brown colour and the perfect hair with hat, model hair 31 of W&Y !

Baila Palmira wore Simone from Jador by ziamela Loon.  In classic black, Simone defines elegance through simplicity. For cooler or slightly rainy days, the poncho and the large, fur-trimmed hood provide ample protection without compromising your flair for fashion. Simone draws attention by framing your face, getting you noticed anywhere you go, and it is easy to accessorise to give you a highly individual look. Truly a timeless design that will always be in style!  The Performance boots in purple from Bax Coen gave this outfit a playful look.

In any man's wardrobe, a stylish blazer is an essential item to have and it is here that Kal Rau delivers, combining his Casual Blazer in shiny black velvet with seven different shirt options to wear underneath. Pheonix Reyer wore the casual shirt for a relaxed and confident look, ready for a metropolitan stroll, an exciting sailing trip, or even a casual business meeting.  A truly "blazing" outfit which can be worn day or night.  A perfect addition to this outfit are the cool shaded sunglasses Furiiuz from Kalnins.

A glamorous feast for the eyes is the Courtisane gown from AlaFolie, created by the beautiful pixivor Allen, modelled by Koffie Juniper.  The sleeveless brocade top with a neck halter sparkles and glitters in silver with every move you make and the multi-layered long skirt with finely patterned lace ruffles makes this dress oh so romantic!  Courtisane is designed for the woman who seeks a unique gown for parties or formal events.

Willy Oakleaf then showed us the Leather and Down Jacket from GABRIEL which definitely is different from the rest.  Designed by Takuya Jinn, this jacket in shiny black sports an unusual, large collar and features small designer clips on the chest and right shoulder.  The jacket opens up at the bottom half for a cool and suave look, slightly flaring out, combined with black leather pants from Gabriel and the fabulous sunglasses add an aura of ultimate confidence and attraction. Gentlemen, do not be surprised if you find women doing a double take on you...

For the final look of the show, we had another very eye-catching design from GABRIEL  : Megu fur jacket and leather one piece White , this time for the ladies and worn by the lovely Meimei Shiu!  Not only leather but also fur is the name of the game - a sexy and breathtaking one-piece mini dress is adorned with an ultra-fashionable hip belt and circular clip, but this outfit would not be complete without a glamorous mid-length fur jacket.  Of course, you cannot miss the stiletto boots with fur trims matching the jacket. Never was taking a bold step - or a dance - more fun than in this superb footwear!!
