No Denying Aphrodite

So my darlings as a lot of you know I am greek, and as a greek it's my cultural duty to to inspect anything bearing that name. So I sauntered over to the Goddesses of Olympus fashion show a few days ago where I was wow'd of course by all the offerings of the designers and models there but that's not what this post is about. I happened to strike up a conversation with a dazzlingly dressed woman next to me. Her name was Vivien Emerald, the designer behind Desir. So what does your fashion godmother do? Scan her profile and hop on the next SLURL to her shop where I picked up the lovely Aphrodite dress in pink because lets face it, I was on a Hellenic kick.

    

Fast forward a few days to the Sydney fashion week. My new acquaintance Ms. Emerald had mentioned she was having a show there and after seeing her work, Zeus would have struck me down with one of his lightning bolts if I didn't make my way over there. And as my dearest husband was in sorry need of a break from building I casually suggested he come along, after I sent the tp of course. Ms Emerald's show was amazing and again the models really kicked up the looks. NatalieWells's Deesse skins were also featured in the show. I'm in love with her new Cher make ups. They're based on Cher's performance in the movie, Burlesque.

 

When I saw the model rocking this lovely dress with its bluish green theme and amazing hem detail I was immediately reminded of my yiayia telling me the myth of Aphrodite rising out of the sea and once again my hellenic hiney scooted across the deck and snatched it right up. I then begged, prodded and pleaded my gracious hubby to let me use his city for the back drop even though it wasn't quite finished yet. You know my darlings, he does remind me of Hephaestus, Aphrodite's husband who, like my awesome pixel partner, was one of the most even-tempered of the Hellenic deities, at least when it came to Aphrodite's lovers… although my love affair is with F I NE S M I T H, [Lelutka], Vero Modero and various other shops as opposed to an endless string of greek gods and heroes.

So I would suggest you make your way over to the Sydney fashion week sim. The Desir dresses that were made especially for that show will only be in the Desir store on the yacht, then the fabulous Ms Emerald will lock up her goodies. Now I will leave you to your shopping. I have my own greek god needing me to do some texture or another for him… And remember, Aphrodite had the beauty, Zeus had the thunderbolts. Everyone loved Aphrodite but everyone listened to Zeus!
