LUXE Paris Look Of The Year - Finale


 Today was the finale for the LUXE Paris Look of the Year 2024. 

Kitty's fashion icon is Jade Pono, LUXE Paris Look of the Year 2022.  Jade was a lovely Japanese American who was exquisitely elegant, had a heart of gold, and loved styling out of the box with some of her favorite colors:  purple, blue, green, and pink.

Thinking out of the box, Kitty chose the white Maria Bridal Gown by LUXE Paris because it is a nontraditional Japanese color and is embroidered with butterflies.  In the Japanese culture, white is for funerals and Kitty wanted to honor Jade in her loss to cancer.  White also represents purity, which very much represents Jade with her respect and graciousness with everyone.  Butterflies represent transformation, renewal and rebirth, which Jade has gone through taking her to a better place where she is free of her suffering.

To pay tribute to her Japanese heritage, Kitty chose to accessorize with the Orchid Set - Salon Mix by Zuri’s because the orchid is a symbol of beauty and elegance in Japan.  The Orchid & Rose Comb by Zuri’s very much resembles a Japanese fan.  The Salon Mix was perfect with its gorgeous combination of Jade’s favorite colors.

To complete the look, Kitty chose a traditional Asian hairstyle, Asian style eye makeup, Geisha style lipstick, fan, matching nails and pumps.

[52] Weeks Challenge - Week 34 - Night-time

 


This week's challenge was Night-time.  I just couldn't pass up these otters under the watchful eye of the crane.  I found this wonder setting on the Autumn Trace sim.

Location:  Autumn Trace

[52] Weeks Challenge - Week 36 - Autumn

 




This week's challenge was Autumn.  I found this wonder autumn sim that has autumn foliage, wild animals, hot air balloon ride, and plenty of places for photo ops, watching the animals, and snuggling.  Here are pictures of two places I found that touched me.  The first is the adorable moose hanging with his forest friends.  The second is a cozy gazebo that would be perfect for watching the animals and having a coffee or hot coco.

LUXE Paris Look Of The Year - Judges Brunch

 


Sunday was the Judges Brunch for the finalists for the LUXE Paris Look of the Year 2024.  The brunch was held at the LUXE Paris Castle.  We received many tough thought provoking questions from the judges.  I am looking forward to the grand finale held September 8, 2024 at 9:30am SLT.

The theme for the Judges Brunch was daytime chic. I decided to wear the LUXE Paris Cubism outfit with its bright colors and simple sophistication.  I accessorized the outfit with Lazuri Classic Pearls set; the Alexandrine black hat by Sascha's Designs, and a round black and white purse by RAMA.
