Got nothing on us
I went to a party to wrap up the Summer Festival at Tableau with Whimsy tonight. The whole Tableau team were there, giggling up a storm on voice. The winner of their store for 30days contest was Radio Signals who is an incredible content creator as well as RL artist. So I am so glad she won. I recently bought some of her art work to hang at home, and it looks fab. If you haven’t been by her gallery next door to Scribble, you should definitely check it out.
I was feeling so festive after the do, that I just felt all bubbly and coloured hair worthy. It is funny how for granted we take the coloured hair packs being available in some stores, what if one day they weren’t there? I know that tips come and go, but sometimes and more often than would be considered normal, you just need coloured hair. Exile has such lovely candy floss like colours, that I decided to go with both in the Candace style. Also to add a bit of flavor to the Jeans and tank from Indyra Originals. These jeans are standout fab with the detailing on the waistband.
The next two pics feature dresses by Vesna, the first one has that large scoop and as soon as I put it on I wanted to fill it, and knew exactly how. Thanks to incredible options, and both items having all layers available, I was able to wear the shirt and tie only from a dress from Fri.day, and create a new look. A mini mobstress look, what with the Fedora hat/hair also from Fri.day. The burnt orange just got some killer bling from Royal Blue and I am ready for a night of dancing. But as I already did that tonight, on with the next one lol.
The new hairstyles from Amacci are incredibly soft and fluttery, framing the face beautifully. How Carina made these styles is just incredible, as most of the hair is a small group of strands all placed strategically to form a style. Lots of prim work in these styles so don’t be wearing them to any high lag events, but don’t hesitate in buying them all because they are just gorgeous. The last two looks had me a bit rock and roll tonight, which is a total contrast to earlier this evening when I was all frocked up.
The skin I am wearing is another New skin from YS & YS and will be released at Fashion Fest. Marilu comes in a neutral tone like the one I am wearing in these pics, as well as a pale I will show at a later date. There are a lovely range of make ups, as well as numerous options. Two hair bases, and cleavage options as well. So each one has 8 options as well as a bun hair attachment if you want to go with the hair base extra tight look, and it is so much fun to cruise around that way sometimes.

Fan Flair
Usually I end with the bikini’s, don’t know how I ended up in reverse order this time, but seems to be the route I have been taking all week. Maybe I needed a tan first, who knows.
The kini from Cynful, as are all the clothing pieces today, actually gives two bottoms options. The string bikini or boyshorts look. Now while the boyshorts would be more preferable for those not wanting to reveal too much, we are talking Cynful here, so of course they have as much on display as they could lol. Luckily the Jade skin by TULI has the perfect derriere for such a display. The hair I am wearing is from Magika, and the style with the over the shoulder look, is perfect for swimwear, neat and pulled back, and then out of the way so you can get that all over back tan.
While I really like the pulled back and behind the ear look of the first one, the rockabilly sprayed with more product than should ever be allowed upswept bangs look of the next one is all love. The overalls all in one look on the left is great, easy to wear, add some jewelry, in this case from Ala Mood and you are off for a night out. Cynful does a lot of great denim, and these capris are fun too. Totally giving me the chance to show off my new thongs, these are from Addictia. They call them flip flops, I call them thongs. They are an all in one fake feet system. As you can see from the top pic you can choose to wear with the thongs or without, then also with beads and flowers or without.
Now these come in only three colour choices, pink, blue, or purple. Personally I would love to see white available, as it would go with more, as well as the ability to chose with or without the flower, because sometimes you just want beads. Maybe one day those options will come, there are also plug ins available for nail polishes and tattoos you can buy separate, for me it was all about the all in one. The other thing is that the big toe is big, and for me, I have a size ten foot RL, so delicate feet are more alien to me, so it was not a deal breaker, but there are demos, so be sure you look at them closely, so that you know you can live with it.
The other Jewelry I am wearing in the second pic, is also from AlaMood Boutique, it also matched perfectly to the dottsie top I am wearing, so cute and fun to wear. Lastly in Exile hair this time, these fab pigtail do’s are so fun, the pixie bangs on the left are still a fast favourite, I cannot get enough of the styles being created with those. The soft curls of the second look make you just crave to see it down. Very very short is the theme for the skirts in this pic, I am torn between the highwaist and the mini, as both have their pluses. The tops are a new sculpted fit top, easy enough to resize if needed, and a easy throw on wear.
The jewelry in this pic is from Gangked, incredibly over the top pieces that are fun to wear, and have very telling names, the one on the right had me awwwing and sad at the thought of it. Mercy heels by Orange Creations come in so many fab colours, that it was easy to match a pair to each look, and the skin tinting is a breeze with so many presets to choose from.

No Race Day
I love What’s New SL Group, biased maybe, but today I got to feature some people that I have explored as stores due to the group. What I love more though, is when people provide all info in notices…that’s what What’s New SL was mainly set up for…but when it actually happens, it is very cool. Such as sending all landmarks to different locations so that if I happen to be intending to go to one location and get a notice for a store there, I can pop into it while already there, yes that means updating satelites locations, but it is due to those that many of us find your mains anyway.
Rant, Rant, Rant…
It isn’t a race, I cannot be the only one that is out shopping ; hears that there is a new release by a certain store, and knows they have a smaller store where I am, run or cam over to see items that are six months old if not older, then just gets sadface. Yeah getting ranty, but seriously you people pay to have these locations represent your product, so why not set up newness at all your spots THEN send the notice ? in RL it is a lot harder to do that but they do, so why in SL where it takes ten seconds to tp to the other side of the grid would you not ?
Rant, Rant, Rant…
In this case it was actually not just LM’s but Xstreet links, meaning I could buy right from my VR Studio, just opened browser and I had a new outfit…easy.Again the store owner is thinking of making the most of their announcement options, in not just What’s New SL but ALL marketing options they may have, in most cases you get one option to captivate a customer with your release, as they are usually getting dozens of shopping options per hour in SL…so giving them EVERY available way to spend their lindens with you is just common sense.
Rant, Rant, Rant…
Again it is not a race, unless you have a fair deadline, or a collab project that HAS to go out at that exact moment, you should take your time, dot all your i’s and cross all your t’s , there are enough ways to promote your stores these days, that you could have info going out every day for a week to different customers. Next release I dare you to try it :P.
The first look is actually a new to me store, but yay for them joining What’s New SL . Not only do I really like the items she has for sale, but I love the Muhi store set up, and on inspection it is her that actually built it as well. This Asymetrical bodysuit is wonderful and actually has the option to wear as more of a jacket if you aren’t into the whole bodysuit look. Which with dress pants would look very dressy under the right circumstances.
The Sam dress by Elate I have had too long not blogged, shame. The Fleur de lis give this tshirt style dress a regal appearance. I do like that Kellie also took the option of plain back, as the all print look can sometimes be a bit too much. I am wearing some newly release jewelry from Ganked with it, in various forms, but I love the necklace the way it sits on the actual collar, because the way it is designed it has that shawl clip look as though more than a necklace but also an item that is holding the dress on the shoulders.
Loving the New Prestige Boots by Bax Coen in silver as much as I am ? Bax has also moved to her own sim this past week, so no more mainland lag for her. The colours that come with the silver and also gold are just lovely, one of the four not shown is actually stunning, but I am saving it – or savoring it . These will be released very soon, so just hold on tight until then, or just go explore the new sim :).
The skirt, or lack there of;Â is the item that I bought while taking pics. It is actually part of a set, and I am honest, I couldn’t tell you what came with the skirt because once I laid eyes on it, that was it *grabby hands. One of the older gartery tops from Cynful is Vogue, so many different options and layers in these tops, with and without lace, and in different coloured lace too. Talk about going all out to satisfy your customers, the most layers you do on everything, the more likely they are to be go to items for people that love layering and mixing and matching.
The scarf is so cute, it was actually at the accessory fair as a dollarbie, in white and black. Haunted Zuzu is an offshoot of Material Squirrel and I really admire Kala’s skills and exploration of new and innovative accessories, something as simple as a lace scarf can add so much to an outfit, this would be really nice too in place of a blouse collar, to give something older a fresh look.
Kissed by Lithium notices make me laugh, sorry but they do. It is not the products, but the way they go about making a new release sound like a must have prescription is too funna. I am a remiss in not blogging this set earlier, the Imovane set has the cutest baggy boardies with a lovely bikini in many colour options. Doing baggy is hard in SL because of how the mesh works, and I would like to see these worked on a little more to maybe incorporate a cuff, but for fun and frolicking in the surf they totally work.
Totally gave me a chance to wear my Gyala clog sandals by Enkythings. I love how Enktan managed to modernise the clog in this way, and the colours and base choices really work. The studs along the sides that show that these are true blog workmanship is just genius.
Spinning through this post with more Eva skins by Tuli, the make ups, skin tone and body all worked for this post so well. I was privileged to see a sneak peak at a new skin already in the works by Tuli the other night with Whimsy. It is like nothing Tuli has done before and it is amazing. Those looking for more from the brand will just be in awe of what is to come.
Magika hair love all over the place, they are having an insane SALE at the moment, so be sure you don’t miss out on that, the hair packs are slashed to clear lol J/K …argh imagine if we only got the chance to create so many of something, wow would SL be fight to the death.
Not all purple but enough to make Ashia not donk me on the head.
If you are a guy looking for poses, or a girl like me who loves using guy poses, then you need to check out the new Homme collection at No Strings Attached, Milli just put some out and they are the ones I am using in the last pic. The first two pics are more sneak peaks from aDORKable, cannot wait for pose fair, and the third are all by Body Language …all such talented posemakers.

blog – Shaken
A time for merryment and cheer, it is Christmas time after all. For some, or many that means a lot of parties, and just to help them along I decided to not just feature the Martini Glass with built in burlesque animations, but also added a little cocktail cheer for you to try out, if you are wanting some festive coloured drinks.
The glass is made by Luth Brodie of Reel Expression, honestly I don’t know why it is even called that anymore…my friends and I all call it Luth’s and she herself names her poses with Luth lol; you could totally save yourself 10 extra characters for the new year . Sillyness aside this glass is great, not only for picture taking, but for a prop for a club or even a store, for store models.
12 poses are able to be accessed by the drop down menu, also with the /1a command in chat, you can alter your rotation and placement in and on the glass, this comes in so handy as all of us are different shapes and sizes. I actually added the pathcut sphere to the inside of the glass and tinted and semi transparented it, just to have a full with cocktail look, even adding a smidge of glow. You may want to go even further with some sliced fruit or other such decorations.
Whatever you do, make it fun, it is that time of year after all. Whatever you do though, if you do make these drinks in your first life…. DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE.

blog – Justice for all
Nothing is more enjoyable than being able to really prepare yourself for your day or night. The great thing that comes from the wonderful abundance of skins we have now, is that the choices on make ups is plentiful.
Now one of the sometimes complicated things is choosing what make ups best suit your Second Life, and the way you live it. So when a skin creator takes into account, your world, your imagination, it is perfect.
Day, Night and the early hours of the morning. Those are the themes of the new skin line by Idiosyncrasy. 8am, 6pm and 2am. Each timeframe has 8 make ups, and the difference though subtle really works well.
I am actually wearing them middle to back, starting with the 6pm skins. Different looks for each one, slight variations, with some pieces crossing over, just like in RL. These days dressing for work can be as stylish and important, as dressing for early evening, nights out. Adding a deeper shade of lippy and tousling out your hair lol.
In Second Life though it can be even trickier, as often who you are talking to, dealing with business wise, or socially, can be looking at you through different eyes entirely based on their own timezone. When you first come to Second Life it can get really tricky seeing people in full formal gowns and suits at 9am lol.
It seems to always be someones morning, evening or late night. But as confusing as that all is, now with the help of these skins, you are covered. Ashia has in my opinion definitely leveled up with the Justice skins, named after the incredibly talented herself Justice Infinity.
All the skins come with dark and lighter brows, as well as cleavage enhancement, so thats four skins per make up. These are just beautiful, you really need to try them asap.
The other featured item today for the most part, is the Beebee boots by SLink, these ankle boots are just adorable and incredibly crafted, in perfect leather, and divine shape…the attention to detail in these boots is amazing, even the zippers on the side have chomp worthy teeth.
Also featuring a lot of Cynful in this post, her latest releases just had me all excited. The idea of denim corsets with the snap buttons, are just gorgeous, they really do have you tightly encased and perfectly moulded. Denim is a perfect texture for this style, as when made in such a way the strength of the weave is totally suitable.
You get three looks in each colour, so they are a steal as well value wise. and whether adding your own cute and sexy, or tailored and professional for the workplace, they all work. Anyway I am rambling and you need to go shopping :P.

blog – dance I said
An interesting thought reared it’s head earlier today. The idea of culling your inventory just to make it less of a burden on the asset servers. Now Mel and I discuss this every other day, believe me that is truly how often he picks on me about mine.
Actually that’s not even accurate, it would be every day. Even Whimsy cops it from him, and hers and mine are almost the same in size. Whimsy scared the hell out of me last week, declaring that if it was causing a strain – Mel says that when I log back in after a crash the sim stalls – then eventually her and I wont be able to be on the same sim; at the same time.
Ashia is more brutal with hers, she gets all powered up and starts deleting things left, right and centre, mind you though she freaks me out by not even looking at what she is deleting. Which recently meant she had to buy something she had previously owned.
Luna mentioned in a plurk that came up about it, that she culls hers to less than 30 (I think it was) and that if she doesn’t use it in 6 months it is gone.
I am sorry but NO WAY JOSE! I cannot go that low, never ever ever. Lately I have been going back and forth in my inventory to show older and new items together… as I always say ‘Everything Old is New to Someone”. I have gotten rid of items that are of no use to me at all, I know I have to completely strip down my furniture folder and what not…I did also get rid of over 3000 wigs recently from one designer, just because of all the colour options I wouldn’t wear…but I do have them backed up in boxes ‘just in case’.
I know it is out of hand, and I know I am a horder lol. But my inventory is my timeline here just as much as my blogs are. I have items from every store I have managed – most of those are boxed unless needed – I cannot imagine not being able to reach into it and pull out an item I know would be perfect for a pic, or blog post regardless of its age.
The absolute beauty of NO TRANSFER items is the ability to unpack, wear, and delete…just make very sure you kept the box. No Transfer means COPY, which means UNLIMITED amounts of said item. Example is the gown I unpacked again today to wear, the deep red one, that I modified so you could see my shoes. I have had that archived in the red for probably a year, the black is left out. Now I will delete the folder, because I know I have it safely boxed.
There is so much of that that you can do as a consumer, and so much that can be done to ensure that is easier as a creator. You see many are against boxed items, usually because they want to see what they are getting with an item, and that is fair enough.
But things such as fat packs etc, are better off as seperate boxes, yes you can right click take copy your single vendors and pop them into your fat pack vendor DONE, it is as simple as that. Creators please don’t make your boxes no copy though, when the items inside of it are no transfer, it is a bit dangerous to make the box they travel in different perms.
Anywho, once you unpack and wear, you can delete, just again be sure you have a back up box that actually does contain the items ready for next time. This also applies for high price items, UNLIMITED UNPACKS, if you mod it and mess it up, unpack another one, if you cannot find all the pieces, unpack another one.
If you spend a bit more than you are used to, and you feel that that item is something you would hate to lose, if it didn’t come in a box, then before you do anything else, make a box and drag copies of the items into it, name it exactly as it is on the item folder and save it to a different folder. I know of some people that sink valuables under the house lol.
Anyway enough of all that.
The shoes I have on were created just after the opening of the Footwear Expo, so they are available at the store and the fair, in different colour sets. This set is of course the darker tones that I asked Siddean to release, for those of us who love our ballet shoes with an edgier colour base.
I was also lucky enough to choose the name of them, seeing as Ashia and I are both lovers of our ballet stuffs, I wanted them to be named after her, if Siddean liked the idea… she did, so once they were remade in the darker colours, and ready for release I bought a gift pack for Ashia, and lol she didn’t believe they were named that, she thought it was just so she could find them in her inventory that Siddean had edited the folder, and that is why she deserved them.
My first look was inspired by the movies, you know when you see a dancing movie, there is always that teacher/instructor that was a ballerina when she was younger yadda yadda , and she just has such a lovely graceful style about her, well that’s what I was going for with this look.
Modified the skirt on the second, so that you could see the gorgeous blood red slippers. The gown is beautiful full length, but something like this under is a perfect shoe to dance the night away. The third look could be ‘ More strippers are classically trained than you think ” look, lol but it was just something fabulous fun and silver to wear with the shoes..but if you want to call it that look go right ahead.
The skin is NEW and beautiful, I am not only loving the usual features of Laq skins, but the make ups on the Ania are just a bit different than the usual I believe. Mallory has added an incredible gloss effect to the lips, and the colour combination’s are just perfect. I did notice more colour this time around in the eyes especially, glad to see a beautiful green shadow amongst the pack.
Incredibly lined lids, and a really perfect under brow highlighted shadow look , that is not easy to do with the template the way it is. Mallory does her make up like someone who knows and spends time doing their own. There are such little hints at colour and shading, that can really make your eyes stand out, and it takes skill to do that.
Ania is again a more mature version of the Glow skins, sometimes depending on shape others in the range tend to side with a more youthful exuberance, so if that has been a concern to you in the past, then you should check out Ania for sure.
All the hair in the post, old and new is from Exile. All those lovely curls framing the face are such fun, and I really like that tousled lived in look for hair, cannot be too perfect all the time, can we.

Pip Pip old pal
So today I woke up and checked my emails as I was logging in. There was an offline from a designer who’s store I featured a few years ago, letting me know he still remembered that the first time he appeared in a blog it was by me, and that now he had his own store blog.
I thought that was so sweet, and was excited to see some items I hadn’t seen of his on the blog. Yes I did go and search out his store every few months, but nothing that I didn’t already have, until today. So as soon as I logged in and sorted through everything I had to , I was off and running.I also checked out another store, then came home. Trying on all my new outfits I remembered that I had meant to swing by Refuge, so off I went again, and got two more styles to show with my other Refuge hair. I really like the hair produced by Refuge, especially with the straight across rock-a-billy bangs. The first style has the most adorable bows and pins decorating the pigtails look.
All the clothing I am wearing is from SK Designs, they have been around since 2007 and their look has changed a bit, but not too much over that time. The creator Sergio designs for both men and women, but I think from the style of clothing he does, that he probably enjoys making for women a bit more. The ensembles are sold as sets, so all you see is all you get, and sometimes more, depending on if there are other coloured tops or both long and shorter pants, etc. The prices are really reasonable and transfer, so if you are looking at buying items that you can share with your other selves, this is perfect.
The skins I am wearing are the Cleo skins from Dutch Touch, with more leaning towards the more creative of make ups in the range, the punk and pip make ups are a fun change. The eye make ups are especially gorgeous, and I have been wearing the punk skins on and off for the last few days, I love the liner on the inner part of the eyes.
Old boots in the form of the 3way Engineer boots from J’s, teamed up with the brand new Rea Suede plain boots by Pixel Mode, these are delightful , in a range of colours that you can co-ordinate with a vast range of seasonal choices. The style are simple but elegant, they have a semi scrunched look, and an incredibly high heel. What is very surprising and will make many happy , is that these boots are mod, so that you can size them to your needs.
I had a wonderful time revisiting an old store, and came out with lots of newness, I hope you like.

FLW
You know I have to be honest, I didn’t know who Frank Lloyd Wright was before Second Life. It’s not that we don’t have influences of his in Australia, I mean we must. But not until Second Life did I ever really consider where those influences came from, or for that matter in how high regard a man such as he was; was held.
I am probably very underdressed for a field trip of this nature, but that is the other joy and learning experience that Second Life allows us, don’t judge a book by it’s cover, actually; just don’t judge.
Imagine what he could have done in Second Life had he lived to see it, but he is actually not only immortalised here by the place I visited today, but because of the NEW FLW Museum I actually learned that one of our esteemed Designers names ‘Fallingwater’ of Shinythings, is the name of one of his more famous builds. I wonder if she is a fan too and that’s why the name ?, the irony is that her last name is Cellardoor and from what I read, he actually got rid of most basements and attics that were in usual American architecture, now I need to know if Fallingwater actually had a cellar …argh – someone has to let me know.
The FLW Museum in Second Life is a beautifuly dedicated build to his memory, the large pictures of him are full of facts about the man, and his life. There is a tour of his work, and just a really nice vibe to the place. I do not know how the Museum came about, but if it is what I think , then someone who admires the man greatly has dedicated their time and energy to show and share that admiration with us..we are truly lucky that we can do that here.
The outfit that I am wearing is a mix, the skirt – which Ashia claims is NOT a skirt – is by Paradisis, isn’t it arrest worthy..the only pout worthy thing about it is that the panties do not come seperately and they look awesome, and I want them. But aside from that it comes on a billion layer combinations.
The incredible thing about Paradisis is that everything is sold either transfer or copy, depending on which vendor you buy from, so be aware that you do have that option, and don’t buy the incorrect one. The Skirt comes with the garters and fabulous stockings in three different colours. Incredible prices and everything , and I do mean EVERYTHING is handdrawn by the creators at Paradisis.
The hoodie is a release shortly after the skirts, and they are equally fab, coming on numerous layers with a great range of colours. The skirt also comes in other colours, I bought them all, one is the U.S version with red and white panties, with a blue denim skirt, very cute.
The Vogue Tank is by Cynful and comes also on a billion layers, in with or without garter straps option, I obviously didn’t wear that one with this look as I would have had way too many straps going on, but it will get a revisit soon. The tops also have a lovely lace trim as well as at the cleavage, but you can’t see it because of the layer combo I am wearing.
Lovely Tasha, is a skin that many know and have from LAQ, recently redone in the Glow series, it deserves a revisit…or a first. Due to it being a redo , the fat pack of this skin and a few others in the Glow range are a steal, and all come with the hair base option, that looks awesome with the latest release of the hair that goes with hair base skins…so much so that I was able to convince Arabella to try on the skins when shopping for the hair, and it was a win lol.
The nose on Tasha is adorable, and the make ups are just lovely, the lips will win your affections, as they are full and pouty and just incredibly done, they are a rich and full covering lipstick which is great for those that want to look like they are making an effort for a night out, but also giving you a day option in lighter colours.

Body – Dutch Touch, Cynful, Luck Inc, Tesla, Aphrodite Creations
Luck Inc and Cynful have released more incredibly yummy clothing for you to wiggle your bum into. Lets start with Cynful, the Body Tank comes in either sheer or solid, and a lovely range of colours. The style is a cut out tank that doubles as a full piece swimsuit.
The sheer is very sheer as you can see from the back of the white one I picked up for private poolside lounging. The Body tanks are a lot of fun to wear with other items, in this case I wore them over a pair of low waist jeans from Dutch Touch, and added a knit belt from Magika to the hips. Adding some Natasha heels from Tesla in the deep red that matches and the Doll hair from Magika I am ready for the day.
Cynful’s first dress release was today, Seduction is a tube dress with lace inserts, not the regular lace but the beautiful holey lace that we used to wear as little girls, and I do wish I knew the technical term for it. The black Seduction dress comes with the white and black inserts options, so you actually get two dresses for a really inexpensive price, on all layers imaginable.
Wearing the Bax Ankle boots in Patent Black , I opted to wear without the lace options on these as it was a bit of overkill, and I would much prefer to feature the lace in the dress. The boots have so many different options with colouring of the lace, lace on or off, as well as sounds and more, definitely worth grabbing the demo on those, and there are some fabulous colours available now since their first release.
The hair I am wearing is Emo Gurl in the second pic, then in the third and fourth I am wearing the follow up style Emo Chick, which has braids…both by Magika. I am also wearing the Art Deco Necklace in Onyx by Bliensen + MaiTai .
Luck Inc recently released their Chemise tops that are a complimentary to the recent release of the Chemise Dresses. Beautiful colours and bold edgey prints, you will find one or all to your satisfaction. The underlace effect; that looks like another top underneath, gives a beautiful layered look. All Luck Inc clothing has a tonne of layer options.
I am wearing them with the Dutch Touch Jeans that were a recentish release, all Dutch Touch clothing is hand drawn as many of you know, but it is never more obvious how incredible Iki’s work is than when you look at her denim. The Aphrodite Creations Sasy Chic shoes are comfy slides with a lower heel, that are great for wearing with pants, they come in a lovely assortment of textures.
The necklace I am wearing is from Addict, and has such fun creations by Kianna Noel, all of her stuff is just fun to wear, I couldn’t resist this sculptie Doll necklace in that fabulous 70’s style font.
The skins also by Dutch Touch are the New Star Skins in a special three make ups only available at Dutch Touch @ The Deck. The make ups are so gorgeous and if you notice that number 2 has such dramatic catseye liner, and number three has a stunning smokey navy shadow. All three make ups are

When you have such a curvacious looking skin, it is your duty to wear as little as possible, and if you can’t wear too little then definitely make sure what you wear shows off as much as possible. Not too hard to do if you shop at Luck Inc and Cynful, which share a sim and a definite passion for the naughty.
The Snake Pants from Cynful are as low as I have ever seen pants go, and not just the front but the back, and what better way to celebrate the fact that the NEW Star Skins by Dutch Touch come with a shaved version, than to wear these pants.
Cynful is the kind of store, that you thank goodness has only so far got a smallish range of clothing, because within moments you have pretty much bought the entire store and can’t wait for more. The Snake pants come in a few different colours, and the grey are the ones I am wearing, I thought being the grey they were a nice in between of black and light grey. Be aware though that they are very bum baring, pretty much mid way down the cheeks, so definitely not for the modest.
The Bowtiful tops by Cynful come in both sheer or solid, I bought both, these are the sheer though and done so beautifully with a bazillion options. They have the option of straps or no straps, lace or no lace and on all layers, and they are just beautiful to wear with all sorts of looks.
Another top that actually lead me over to Cynful that day, is the Crop Shop not sheer top, this top has also different versions, one being the optional top that has been created using a texture that implies shadows from the fabric being stretched across the breasts, that is then finished off with a prim. These tops are available in many colours as well as a camo print.
The other day Newdoll, Ashia and I were at a store and saw a girl wearing these Button shorts, working out they were from Luck Inc off we went. They do have a closed front version as well and come on all layers, but the open front ones are too yummy. The Suspenders are sold separately, and come in the same colours as the shorts, I highly recommend trying the suspenders as I know they are called out for often and these are great, especially in the colours they are available in , as well as on all layers.
The boots I am wearing are a MUST HAVE , they are at least 50inches high lol and are Pure Black Opaques from Utopia, I am so excited that Utopia finally has a store, I found them on Xstreet a few months ago , and have been waiting ever since for newness, and these boots are it.
Other Newness is in the Uzuri Stores Jewelry range, one so new it was only cast in the last few hours. The Anganasa Necklace is just lovely , beads of both gold and silver crafted into an elegant necklace, the Zamani Bangle in silver is a stunning piece of work, the texture of the unpolished silver is just lovely.
You may have noticed I have a thing for socks and leggings, well when I saw the Kookie Hole Leggings it was love, they come in a pack with all layers and a nice range of colours, I would love to see more of these produced soon.
The hair I am wearing in the top picute is Winter by Kyoot, an older style but one that I had been meaning to grab for so long and finally did recently, Winter is so girly; I much prefer it to summer, and have already been discussing that I will need to do some wintery posts during your summer or I will be too cranky lol.
The second style is by Red Queen and is Threats, a shorter style than normal for Red Queen hair, but just as fabulous as all if not more so, as it seems to be a little tamer. The other style I am wearing is Easy by Red Queen which I have worn in the past and brings the hair back from the face making it easier to see the stunning make ups on this New Star skin by Dutch Touch.
I am wearing the Walnut tone, which is darker than I usually wear, but oh so beautiful. Not only are there 15 stunning make ups, only 8 shown, but you also have freckles which are a smattering across the nose and cheeks, with brow options and SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVED.
I know I know, I get excited over such nonsense, but when I was discussing this need with Iki the other week and shortly after went and bought the Snake Pants, I was unable to wear them with many of my skins, I am pretty sure the shorts would probably be the same.
These skins though are just so spot on everywhere, they are incredible naked, totally made for becoming a nudist. I am really in awe of the stomach though, something about how its shaded with the belly button, pelvic bone and hips, it all has a really beautiful curvy look that is all woman.
Check out the Demos of all the Dutch Touch skins as soon as you can, the range is delightful.
The Green Mist eyes I am wearing are by Silhouette by Carissa Crimson, I don’t believe they are released as of yet, but keep your eyes open for those (pun pun punnnn) they are really beautiful and have such lovely reflections built in.
