What's your New Year's Style?

Cozy, Classy, Formal, or Fun?


All things are possible at Ever An' Angel!  

It's the end of the year, and we all have our own style for letting go of the old year, and welcoming in the new!  Ever An' Angel has something for what ever your style might be!  

One tradition is to have a bonfire with close friends. Everyone writes down the hurts and disappointments from the last year.  And then, just before midnight, the papers are dropped into the fire, to release them, so you might start the new year fresh, and unburdened by the past.  Or maybe it's just a nice bonfire on the beach with friends.  Either way, might I suggest this cozy "Mohair Sweater & Leggings" from Ever An' Angel?  It's the perfect combination of style and warmth, and will hug you closely as you release any negatives and welcome in all the positives that will come your way for 2016!


Or an alternative if you are out where it's very cold, how about the His and Hers Hiking Jacket?  I love it, so cozy, warm, and stylish!


If you want to show up to the New Year's cocktail party in something that's very classy, I would suggest "By The Way".  It's perfect.  It comes in 9 savvy fashion colors, each one more jewel-like than the next.  The deep vee neckline, front and back is daring, but still elegant.  And Semi-Precious has created a gorgeous necklace and earring set that sets it off!



For a formal look, what about the newest gown from Ever An' Angel?  "Without Hesitation" is slightly vintage, and completely elegant.  The fall of the weighted satin over your skin, clinging to your curves, the teasing slide of the thinnest of straps over shoulders and across your back, all highlighted with rich metallic embroidery that draws the eye of your lover first *here*.....and then *there*.  Utterly feminine and simply a classic.


And if you plan on bringing in the New Year on a FUN note, why not choose one of the new releases called LB?D Cocktail dress, worn here in Cinnamint!  It's so flirtatious, and so fun, and shows off those long legs of yours!


However you choose to ring in the New Year, let Ever An' Angel help you achieve the perfect look! Let our knowledgeable CSRs help you put together a look that says YOU!  Happy New Year from Ever Courtois, Angel Wickentower and all of us at Ever An' Angel!

All make-up looks are by Tone Make-up, available exclusively at Ever An' Angel!

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like....


The holidays!  From Ever An' Angel!   

What are some of your favorite holiday looks from Ever An' Angel, was the question I posed and generously, people responded. (okay, so I had to track a couple of them down, but they came to the photo shoot willingly!)  I think it is a real showcase for the elegance, class and creativity you will find in all the looks from Ever An' Angel!  

Our dear friend, Laura, from Zuri Jewelry steps out in the Muse gown, in Berry.  She holds off the surprising glitter of snow, with an impromptu parasol.  Gorgeous and elegant, Laura will dance the night away in this amazing gown, from Ever An' Angel.  


Zayden walks out of a dream dressed in the tuxedo by Ever For Men!  He looks as if he could tackle just about anything from a tango to international espionage.  This great tuxedo comes with a color change hud that allows you to change lapels and cummerbund easily, to strike just the right color note for any occasion.  Zayden, always a classic, stayed with shades of grey.  


A vision, that's Quix in Zrayasa; festive in the color, Ruby.  I see her gliding into the Embassy ball, turning heads as she is announced.  Cool, elegant, sophisticated.  She pairs the gown with blends of Bold and Soft Expressions make-up from Tone, and adds the incredible Vibrant liner, also from the Expressions collection.  She is the picture of a woman of confidence!  


Laura also loves the Marquise gown, here in the color "Ocean" (one of my personal favorites)  She wears Bold Expressions makeup and the Mixers for dark skin 01B.  She pairs it with bold jewelry from Zuri Rayna for an incredible look that reflects all the fun and sparkle of the season.


Jenna is ready to party in this short, flirty dress, called LB?D in ornament.  This color was a gift, from Ever An' Angel at one of the fashion shows and you'll find many MORE gifts under the tree at the main store!  Jenna finished the look with a pair of strappy red heels, and great make-up from the TONE make-up collection.  Available exclusively at Ever An' Angel!


And our own, Mini (also called Yuko) shows another version of the Zreyasa gown.  This one is in the color Royal.  Notice the flow of the scarf, as it trails behind her, the fit of the gown beneath, accenting her lovely shape.  This gown will see you through all the holidays, in style. Stop in to Ever An' Angel, and see what's new!  You'll be glad you did!  



And this is where it began, and Summer pays a sweet tribute to Ever An' Angel in the card she sent. 

"This is one of my favorite Gowns  Ever did :)
even though it isn't mesh it's still a beautiful gown :)
I was her customer and had to buy 1 gown once or twice a month and the detail caught my eye :) She has come along way 
from system to mesh :)
Merry Christmas from Summer !!!"



We've been on a journey, together, through fashion, through changes in technology, to people that come and go in our lives. How wonderful that we can wear the story of how things change and express in our own way how much they've stayed the same.  Ever An' Angel, always classy, always elegant, always in style.

It's a season of Celebrations with SIX new looks!


 We love this time of year, with lights and music, dancing and frost, and tons of reasons to dress up! Six NEW looks just for you from Ever An' Angel!  


Up first is the Zayresa Gown in Blush.  (You KNEW I'd find pink things!) It premiered last night at a Luxe fashion show, and is available, currently, at the Ever An' Angel Store there. The slide soft silhouette of  a duo colored strapless gown in the subtlest shading of jacquard, and floating over that the feminine drape of a gold embroidered scarf.  Elegant, feminine, inspired by the romance and color of India, this gown will see you through many galas in style.  The scarf is changeable, via a clever hud, so you can create a different look every time you wear it!



 I choose to keep the look soft, as the dress is such a standout!  The makeup is Tone, available exclusively at Ever An' Angel.  On the eyes is Bold Expressions, Royalty, and on the lips, Bold Expressions, Sugar.  The look is exotic, feminine, without going to costume.  Gorgeous.



And where will you be, "After 6"?  This great ensemble from Ever An' Angel will take you to where ever you're going!  After 6 is a two piece look, with a soft drape of silk over your body, with a play of texture and color.  The print side is subtly sheened with lux thread through silk, the solid side, the finest of silk, cool and sensual against your skin.  Held, daringly by the clasp of an Asian inspired "frog" closure.  The wrap style of the top offers your enthralled audience the curve of perfumed shoulders, and the flirt of a bare, toned belly.  Worn here with the black trousers.  Trousers in complementary colors also included in each set.  Modern, flirtatious, and totally classic.


Of course no outfit is finished unless you have the perfect make-up and Tone Make-up is just that.  Once again I used the Bold Expressions palette with Pomegranate lips and Sunset eyes: sultry, sexy, for the woman of confidence.  


And Ever calls this the LB?D, which means the "Little Black ? Dress" .  While it would be perfect in the black color (also available) you don't have to stay with that fashion staple.  Here I am wearing the dress in "Ornament"  A sizzle of red that reaches NO great length.  Young, and daring, this little dress will see you through many parties, and just imagine those tiny straps slipping down the curve of your shoulder, as that silken slide is followed by the press of a kiss!  Happy Holidays indeed!  


I choose to wear it with the Xue jewelry set from Semi-Precious.  So perfect for this time of year!  It has a color change hud so you can match it to any outfit!  The make-up is TONE, of course!  I'm wearing Fresh Lips in Defiant (retired) and Mixed Message Eyes - 5.


And another great dress that is so sweet, so elegant, and just a tiny bit naughty.  It's said, "Good things come in Small Packages and that's absolutely true about this look from Ever An' Angel.  The short flirt of the skirt, the tease of the lace covered neckline, the tucks at waist that accent your curves.  You'll dance the night away in this look.  


The soft teal color inspired me to use the Soft Expressions palette in Tone Make-up.  I paired the Soft Expressions lips, in Rhubarb, with the subtle shadow called.  Stormy.  Young, fresh, and vivacious.  You will be the life of the party!


Once again we go to the sophisticated side in this ensemble called "By the Way".  A perfect look for those cocktail parties, office get togethers,  nights out with the girls, and a classy date with that special one!  You'll have them checking you out coming and going as the V in the back is as deep as the V in the front. This is "By The Way" in Pyrite (also known as Fool's Gold, but only a fool would NOT notice this great look!).  The sweater is a shimmer of holiday shine, and the trousers are so well cut that you'll be beautiful and comfortable no matter where you go 


The make-up again comes from the Bold Expressions collection.  The eyes are a gorgeous shade, called "Dusk" and the mouth, another lush shade, "Copper"  Semi-Precious jewelry, by our own dear Quix, had just the right piece to compliment the daring neckline, Mariko, in gold.  


And there may be times you want to stay "in" with that special someone.  Might I suggest you try this ultra-feminine peignoir set, Sleep Walk, by Ever An' Angel!  You can wear it with the over skirt, or without.  It is such a classic, with the lace overlay against the softest of silks.  Those of you that are daring can wear it out dancing, or you can be soft as a kitten and curl up at home, knowing you are the center of your loved one's attention in this silk and lace slip of a gown.  


I kept the makeup look soft but still sensual.  The eyes are Tone, Autumnal, Day, Firefly (retired) and the lips?  Soft Expressions, in Baby.  Simply irresistible.


Don't forget the 12 Days of Christmas are coming up!  Be sure you've joined the group before the price goes up!  Get your friends to join!  

Come in to Ever An' Angel, and check out all that's new!  We know you'll be glad you did!

Powerfully feminine - Marquise -from Ever An' Angel





A dress that celebrates the feminine

Powerfully

From Ever An' Angel

Presenting Marquise



Like Venus rising from the foam, this dress makes you feel the power and strength in femininity.  The shimmering  cling of the jeweled silk, to the statement of the strong contrast of bodice, and the wink of whimsy of three buttons, all come together to make a statement that celebrates the strength and softness of the feminine.  This sensual gown dares to bare the length of a leg, each step a flirtation.  But as you turn, The intricate art deco patterning that cages the curve of the back, contrasts boldly with skin and curves, but somehow still celebrates the powerful essence that is woman. 

To compliment the look I've chosen to wear the new makeup from TONE, in Bold Expressions Eyes, in Flourite, and Bold Expressions lips in Rosebud.  I added the Vibrant Expression eyeliner in Ocean.  Such gorgeous colors!  

I am wearing the color "Ocean" in the photos, but it is available in many iridescent shades, and there are exclusives for the Christmas Expo, coming up, that will benefit the American Cancer Fund.  

Come in to Ever An' Angel, and see what's new.  You'll be glad you did!



Extra Extra!  A special edition of the Incident gown is available at the Ever An' Angel store at the Zuri Mall.  This exquisite gown, in "Pearl" is perfect for all your formal occasions.  This is a red carpet look!  And, it's half price!  Hurry to the Ever An' Angel store at the Zuri mall and get yours today!  *Mwah* 


And don't forget the new shop:  Ever For Men!  It's the place you've been waiting for!
