Styles of Edo and Azul Merge

Styles of Edo owner Edo Tone has proposed to merge with Mami Jewell of Azul.
Edo is well known for his beautifully tailored suits and Tuxedo's so his sponsorship of Azul is no surprise.
Edo demands the best quality of himself, as anyone can see by examining any of his designs. The same can be said of Mami's spectacular gowns.
Although new to SL she has an amazing design flair and attention to detail that astounded me.

In combination these two work wonders, I have personally decried most of SL's ladies suits, they tend to be boring or manish. When I do business I want to look like a business woman but I don't want to lose the sassy side of me in doing it. Most of the suits I have call for a compromise which I personally hate or because of my short hair I end up looking butch. This was a conversation I had with Edo a while ago, the result of his first collaboration with Mami can be seen here in the 'Dana' Leather suit. Retaining the sassy feel this suit can be worn for work or play, remove the jacket and be ready for anything :) It can be bought with different blouse colours and I am hopeful soon in other colour suits too.
Mami Jewell has had a lot to contend with in her short term in SL, feeling a certain restraint since her designs are so good for someone so new to SL, but I am sure with Edo's partnership they will both go from strength to strength.
A great partnership I am happy to endorse with the 'Dana' suit.

Styling your Second Life with Firehorse



Today I’d like to introduce you to our latest feature.
As from Friday there will be a weekly article about styling your SL – this is going to be a guide to getting the best avatar you can for your money – starting with how to create a full female av, with wardrobe, for 0 lindens! I won’t just be covering the ladies though, in future editions I will be doing the same for men and all other sorts of Av – so look out for the tiny, furry and fantasy articles in the future.
Groups and locations mentioned in the first article will be useful for all sorts of avs, so read the article even if it isn't aimed at the sort of av you want to style.
As the weeks progress, the budget covered will increase so you will be able to get the best value and quality for your hard earned cash.
For over a year I’ve been offering a bespoke make over service for avatars (mostly for men), so I’ll be offering lots of hints and tips, that maybe you won’t know.
Also a note card with further landmarks and group info will be offered after the articles have been published.
