Dark Obsession...NOIR by DAHLINKS

My newest obsession is dark, sleek and oh so fabulous. The primstress is right on track with her new NOIR line at Dahlinks. I am proud to tell you about the latest additions to join the NOIR line, the NOIR Concubine Earrings and the NOIR Concubine Slide.

These pieces have the perfect balance between being trendy and being able to be worn for years to come. The greatest thing about good pieces of jewelry is the longevity of wear you can get from them and their ability to withstand the test of time. I really love to find pieces that are visually striking and look up to the minute hot right now.....but when I pull them out some time later, they are still relevant and don't look dated.

Chandelier earrings are a definite hot trend still going on, and these gorgeous ones are fun and versatile. Just like their original cousins, these feature incredible filigree work in black metal and of course the stars of the show, my favorite black diamonds. Again, as with all of the pieces in the line, the black isn't dull and faded. It is vibrant and shiny with just the right subtle amount of sparkle. These pair well with your casual outfits, but let me tell you...they make an evening gown pop like no body's business.

I recently wore these to an executive function, and I got more play then the men we were there to discuss....*note to self, send thank you to primstress*. Dress them up or dress them down, no matter what, you can't stop these earrings from stealing the show. Available right now in the new release section of Dahlinks for 125L...little pocket money for big style.

And as promised, I told you right here earlier, more slides to come...and this is one is no disappointment. The NOIR Concubine Slide is bold and sophisticated.

The same attention to detail with the sexy chain wrapping around and through the slide, down to the pendant means a gorgeous 360 degree view. So now matter if you wear your hair up or down while sporting this slide, it looks good from every view.

One of my pet peeves with jewelry is a piece that is gorgeous from the front, but the same quality and detail isn't paid to the back or clasp area. A pieces should always be well finished in every aspect and this one delivers.

As always, the texture on this is just classic. Trendy all black metal that pops, with just the right amount of sizzle. This slide goes with everything, trust me on this...I have been sporting it for a few days now..that is right, you heard it here...I even sleep it in...that is how much I love it.

You can join the dark revolution in the new release section of Dahlinks by picking up this piece for just 150L. NOIR by Dahlinks is taking the accessories world by storm...don't miss out and don't forget that Dahlinks will be at the Black and Blue Fair starting June 4....new and limited edition releases coming...so stay tuned.

Until next time Dahlinks Darlings...champagne dreams and dark wishes.

The Cut That Excites....NOIR by Dahlinks

Stick and stones may break my bones, but razor blades excite me. *Me does an evil, kinda scary laugh*. Not that the newest addition to the NOIR line at Dahlinks is scary, but I do like to attempt one of those old school Nightmare on Elm Street laughs every now and then.

So what the heck am I rambling about. It is razors, but not ya old man's straight shaving razor. I am talking NOIR razors. I told you about Dahlinks newest line, NOIR recently, and this piece of black yumminess is the newest addition.

A slide necklace, this piece of perfection wraps around your neck and through a loop and dangling at the bottom is a razor blade encased in precious black metal and embellished with a small black diamond.

What I really love about this piece is that it is not a dull looking metal. Sometimes you buy black pieces and there is no light to them. They seem flat and dull looking and it leads to disappointment. This beauty was crafted with care in every detail and it really is a conversation starter.

I am sure this piece will get lots of wear. It is casual and fun, and incorporates nicely into your daily wear. I am not one to even poo poo the idea of wearing it with a hot dress or slinging it around my neck as an accessory with a couple of the bikinis I own. Whatever you wear, this piece hangs nicely...none of that through the lady lumps you may get with other necklaces.

The NOIR line is proving to be a big hit and I am simply in love with it. Start your collection today, as rumour has it more slide necklaces in this line will be debuting...and you can also find a limited edition slide I previous reported on at the Black and Blue Fair starting June 4th.

Priced at 150L and available in the new release section at the main store....this piece won't bleed you dry for style. Own yours today..seriously...get on over there.

Until next time, I bid you dark wishes my Dahlinks dahlings....catch the darkness with NOIR by Dahlinks.

Trillion Beauty at Dahlinks

Greetings Dahlinks Darlings. Have I got a new realease to tell you about, and these beauties are near and dear to my heart. These exquisite earrings came to my rescue this past weekend.

Introducing the Drop Pearl Trillion Earrings. Gorgeous pearl earrings in an extraordinary settings. Three pearls each wraped in your choice of silver or gold metal and trillion diamonds, all joined together by small metal links, these are class and sophistication at their best.

I was running around the store this past weekend, in desperate need of earrings to wear with my Dahlinks wrapped pearl bracelet and back drop pearls. Now, this will make you laugh, because I was running around full speed in full bridesmaid gear..bouquet in hand and shouting at things to rez, because I was kind of in a hurry. More then one store visitor noted the crazy lady in the gown looking like she needed to be committed to the funny farm.

Exhausted and running out of time, I called out the the Primstress herself. On my knees and exhausted, I cried.."Oh mighty Primstress, help me please". On cue, and in her all knowing manner, she points me to these beauties. Sent from heaven, beautiful..stunning and waiting for me.

Imagine my surpise when I place them on my ears and find out that not only do they exactly match my existing pearls...but Oh Muh Gosh (thank you Usher for providing the tunes during this blogging session)...they have six pearl color choices and two metal choices. All contolled by a simple built in click and follow menu, you get many pairs of earrings for the 150L price of one pair. No matter what color pearls you already own or the outfit you are coordinating with, you will posses Tahitian Black, White, Champagne and other colored oyster born beauties to match.

The textures are as superb as you have come to expect of Dhalinks and the hand crafted exection is flawless. The attention to detail makes these a conversation piece...expect to be noticed. A winning combination no matter what color metal and pearl you chose. These are simply the best.

Available now at Dahlinks, fall in love again with pearls and diamonds...a lady's best friend.

Until next release...I wish you champagne wishes and Dahlinks dreams.
