Beetlebones Beetlebones Beetlebones
Ashia and I went on a shopping spree earlier this evening, and went to somewhere I had been telling her that we had to the last few days, when Ashia was tping to another location, I spotted a SALE sign.
Jumping over from one store to another, I found that Beetlebones was having a 50% off everything Sale until the 24th, which worked out perfectly because I was able to incorporate those buys, with the wondeful hair that is also on SALE at Tiny Bird, yes Tiny Bird and Long Awkward Poses are having a 50% off SALE to celebrate their One Year anniversary of Festivale, congrats to them both and everyone else that is on that sim 🙂 it’s a lovely place to spend time.
Beetlebones collection varies from dressy to casual, and the prices at the moment are crazy, but even if you don’t make it to the SALE the full prices are really well priced anyway.
The other week I was hanging with Justice, and she was showing me her new ankle boots from G Field, as soon as I saw them I knew I must have… they are like Maryjanes that have extras, they have the straps of a shoe, with the added benefits of a boot, with texture changes on the buckles in various metals. There are small packs as well as a fat pack greatly priced, and at the moment there are two versions in pumpkin orange that have been reduced to only 30L so you should make sure and grab those too.
I felt like wearing an older skin today, and my go to was the beautiful Poppy skin from La Sylphide, just because when I think Tiny Bird and LAP it’s not a far leap to Stephanie Misfit, plus I really love how her skins look for any occasion.

Up the Stalk – &Bean, La Sylphide, DeLa, Red Queen, Lamb, TRUTH,Tigerclaw, Kalnins, Dare
Shhhh they are sleeping, or at least turning in for the night.
So lets start with the checking out &Bean, I have probably redirected a billion people there this week all wanting to know where the skin was from in the latest Maitreya Hair ad.
So last night I decided to go and check it all out myself, under the beautiful rainfall that fills part of the Cupcake sim I found the store, more thanks to Ashia though, who after me getting lost found me a direct tp.
I was more intrigued with the clothing I have to say, the demos of the skins are all there and fab, but when I saw this skin it was a Must Have, it is called The Pale Anger – Sale at Armidi, which I think is a hoot of a name, if they did have one, it would be that rough and tumble lol. The bruises, scratches and black eye and fat lip are incredibly detailed.
The outfit is the I Kill Her set, also by &Bean, I love the caged undergarment style of this set, perfect for recreating some Scarlett styles. The Grey and Black lace teddy is well worth grabbing it for even if the cage isn’t your thing.
The hair I am wearing is called Carissa, it is by TRUTH, and is a lovely pigtails style with a loose look thats in that thrown back and together look we often have to adapt to.
I saw these boots from Tigerclaw and I fell in love, they are the Police SWAT boots, and they also have a blue light option you can buy, I felt that the red lights would be easier to co-ordinate with, they are so much fun to stomp around in, and really well made, the textures are beautiful.
The Maps Jacket and Slick and Shiny pants are both seperates from &Bean, the jacket has with or without prims options, and a preferable way to wear either, I went totally the opposite. Under the jacket prim cuffs is actually a pink texture variation, so you do in fact get two looks for your money. Silver and shiny, too hard to resist were these leggings, they come in other colours as well, but this dark steel like silver was mine.
The perfect accompanyment to the outfit, are the New release Kalnins Fashion shoes called Coquette, now I will let you in on a little secret, these shoes are actually cheaper on Xstreet HERE , so check them out at either place – and it isn’t really a secret because Maris Kanto the owner told me himself lol.
The shoes not only have beautiful preset colour combinations, but also the ability to choose which colour where, depending on what strap or part of the shoe you choose at the time, the presets are a great guide as well, I used one of them and then just changed one strap setting to get the charcoal, so it was easy. They have sounds, shiny , colours all contained in a drop down menu, there are also feet lights which is a novel approach, but hopefully no one will use outside of a studio or photo shoot need.
The downside to these shoes is, that if you do not have a modify shape you will have your hands full trying to mod them, and I am not even sure you can to a size 0. They are designed to wear with a size 11 foot, and if you have some height to your avatar they look splendid. There are demos there to try first so you can see how you fare. The style is just stunning, and they are definitely a spring into summer sandal heel.
The hair I am wearing is too cute, it is Torn by Red Queen and I just love how the hair is wrapped around the neck as though like a scarf, those with long hair at some stage have either done that, or wanted to when it’s been freezing cold. The back of this style is just gorgeous as is all the Red Queen hair, thick and long, with playful styles and attitude.
I am wearing the New RGI Sunglasses by DeLa, there are no limits to her creativity, the sunglasses are in various colours that are rich and vibrant, with different lens colours depending on what you are wearing or in fact your mood. The shape of the glasses is vintage at its best, with the large frames covering most of the face to give off that lady of mystery look.
Behind every Lady of Mystery is a little girl, or inside at least.Back when Loco Pocos first opened it’s doors to the public I had all these exciting conversations with Damien and Washu. One such conversation was about the ability to indulge in Loco Love but stay regular sized and shaped.
Finally it is here, The Loco Poco, Poco Pals. They are just adorable, and yes they are all wearable plushie style Loco Poco characters, I was so excited to see these, and not only can you wear them but you can play dress ups with them. They have an inbuilt Menu that allows for choosing clothes, facial expressions, Name them, what colour eyes, and fur they will have and so on.
This is me putting all my Poco Pals to sleep for the night, and yes I still have my ALF Doll and my Dolph the Stuffed Dolphin and my very own Panda Bear that is 37 years old lol. So next time you are in a dither about what to get a friend for a rezday/birthday, anniversary or just to make them smile, this is the ticket.
The skirt I am wearing is the Signaling through the Flames tutu, and the tank is the beautiful Reckoner tank that comes in two options, both of these are also by &Bean and are seriously girly in an antiquey way, love them.
The hair I have on is from Lamb, the store is also at the Cupcake sim so it was easy to grab, it’s the Teased Up style that I believe is the much requested hair from the hat/hair previously released, with a tad more backcombing done, which I love doing RL too.
Not all the Katie Faces made the pic, but these are six of the eight lovely New Make Ups for the La Sylphide Katie make ups. The lips are so soft and supple, with a light coat of lippy and the soft eyeshadow under those divine and long lashes.Stephanie has done an incredible job on the lashes of these skins, I am not wearing any prims at all, and the uppers are superb. When the skin creator takes this much care in doing each lash like this, wearing prim ones is an insult. Make sure you check out the demos yourself.
A big shout out on the New poses by DARE, these are the Antoine Picard inspired poses, not only are the original artworks beautiful, but you cannot not take a look at the vendor ad by Chance Greatrex, this vendor ad to me is just so gorgeous it reminds me of 1920’s Musical Advertisements, I just love it.

Uva – DeLa, Tiny Bird, La Sylphide, Dark Mouse
The recent release of Uva tops and shorts by DeLa has been a delight to wear, not only are there the knee length shorts, but also the shorter puffier short style. The sculpties are beautifully created, and Kura has been using a lot of new software and improving her skills over the past few months and it shows.
The belted waistbands of these shorts are texture change on click, so you can co-ordinate with the belt colour that you choose, very 80’s in its double wrap thin style, so much fun. The pieces are all sold seperately , and the last colour option the Uva Sun Deck is an Exclusive to The Deck sim only.
The pieces are a lovely knit fabric, that is light enough for the warmer weather, and yet still warm enough if it gets cool in the evenings, the strapless top comes on all layers – as does all DeLa clothing – and with the bare upper chest area you have the ability to wear some fabulous accessories. Also featured are the New socks by DeLa, these come as a pack of 40 pairs, and you get ankle, calf length, thigh highs and more in a huge mass of colours, way too much fun and really reasonable in price.
Also from DeLa top to bottom we have the Dolly Sandals, Stella Heels and the Polina Sandals…all fabulous footwear that are available in a wide range of colours. The poses I am using today are also from DeLa and are the latest release of poses from the DeLa store.
The hair I am wearing today is all from Tiny Bird, the rebranding of Pixel Dust happened so smoothly and it has proven to be a great transition. As a gift for Mothers Day Autumn set 6 of her styles in random packs for 1L, thanks to Ashia Tomsen of Inventory Episode for squawking in my ear on that , a great way to experience the Tiny Bird textures and styles, if you missed out don’t despair as there is a great gift style when you join her Subscriber Machine.
Not able to resist Wendy when I was there, this first style is windswept but subtle so it is a wearable at all times style. The second style is Fuentes, another flower embedded style with leather strapping keeping all those lovely curls tamed. The third style is Olivia with tight dried by the sun waves in a shorter length, with a beautiful seashell hair clip that is a seperate attachment.
Those that read my blog often, and have done from way back when know that wearing other hair flowers makes me stress lol, I have always been extremely loyal to my Essentia Hair Roses , Fiachra the creator of these hair roses always encourages me to wear other peoples and it actually really freaks me out when hair has accessories built in, these pieces are lovely though so it wasn’t as hard to show this beautiful hair, but understand I will now and forever more be loyal to my Essentia Hair Roses.
Just so I could get through it, and because they went so well with the outfits, I am wearing the Byzantine Cross Necklace and Earrings, Retro Montage Necklace and the Exclusive to The Deck Red Jade Necklace and Earrings by Essentia.
The Straw Summer Bag is from Dark Mouse, one of the colours available was a group gift, but at 100L for a set it is way worth getting the pack, they are also fabulously modify , so you could be a bit creative with the contents if you wish.
The other day I was flicking through my skins folder, and came across my Erin by La Sylphide skins, I adore those skins and was curious about why we hadn’t seen any newer skins so far, then the very next day BAM , a notice from Stephanie about the release of Poppy and Katie.
Today I am showing Poppy tan, a beautiful skin with such wonderful make ups, there are currently minimal tone choices but you really need to try on the Demo’s so you can see how great they are on your own shape. The make ups are as I said wonderful, and you definitely get one to suit all sorts of occasions.
The eyes are smoldering and the lips are full and sensual, they are a great price as singles but the fat pack has to be the way to go. So bikini up and check out the beautiful work that Stephanie has been doing while we waited patiently.
