Taste the Rainbow
She came, she saw, she kicked it. Seriously Anya OhMai is another reason to love all that Second Life offers. Starting SL in march of this year, she has absolutely nailed it, starting as an enthusiastic fashion lover, to blogger, to designer in such an incredibly short amount of time.
Sofia IM’s me yesterday and told me I was going to get a delivery, and I did, in the form of a multitude of incredible colours and styles. That quickly followed by a TP to the OhMai main store where I proceeded to buy up the rest of it. The colours are the first thing you notice, arranged in beautiful packs at ridiculously low prices. Staples are the first thing that comes to mind, there are so many Must Have items in there, it’s insane.My first new addiction are the sheer leggings, they stop just below the heel, making them super fabulous, and they are not only semi sheer , but RIBBED. There are a variety of colour packs, that all blend so well with everything in the store.
The Catherine blouse I am wearing is a new item in the OhMai store, it is definitely fabulous in it’s somewhat Chanel look, and a FANTASTIC use of the system skirt, you know how much I love it when people put it to such a great use as this one.
The black and white combo, with the accessories from Glow Studio’s is a definite winner, the Seasons Bag Winter bag is a great carryall, for extra shopping of Must Have items.
Could the Emma Ruffles dress be more adorable, I don’t think so. I mean first off when I put it on I had the without white skirt portion and I was in love with it, then I realised there was another skirt choice, and I squeeled. Not only again do they go with the wonderful leggings, but I only wore the sock portion of one pair, and it’s too funna. Seriously with this colour palette that Anya is using , you can literally “taste the rainbow” :P.
Three years ago now, when Fiachra of Essentia was making the hair roses, we absolutely loved the Pink Hawaiian rose , and now I have the perfect way to wear it. The thumbelina dresses are so creative and just delicately beautiful. They would make perfect Fae wear, but the style and grace of these dresses makes them just incredible cocktail dresses for all.There are actually two skirt options in these too, but I loved the bloom ones, and what’s not to love in a formal dress that turns into swimwear, because we all know what can happen at those upmarket occasions when the press go home.
Due to the limits of the mesh and clothing layers, in the past we were unable to get a lot of shape out of our clothing, that has changed a lot with the implementation of sculpted prims, and OhMai has been pushing that envelope.The Nina Sweaters give you the best little bubble butt ever. The shape and style of these oversized sweaters is fabulous, the extra detailing in the pockets and buttoned sleeves, as well as the adorable hoody attachment at the back. Again because of the design in these sweaters, you are able to wear contrasting or complimentary colours underneath, to tie it all in.
I am wearing the High Rise tanks with these , and believe me when you see the prices of the packs of these, you will think Anya has lost her marbles. But then you can be overly appreciative, because it free’s up more money for everything else in the store lol.
Lastly and one of the reasons it all came about, as Sofia fell for this beautiful Pocket Cardigan and who can blame her, I must have grabbed everyone of those as well, the colours, shape and overall idea of them is marvy, they have a definite vintage look to them, and I am so all into that.
Wearing them over the high rise tanks, and bringing it all together with the Mo Pocket pants from Miel, these pants I have shown in the past, but they definitely deserve to keep on returning, another fantastic use of prims to enhance the whole look.
All of the hair I am wearing today is from KC, Kitsune Couture, a store now owned by Niennra Kitsune of Magika fame. Niennra branched out on her own recently, and has been creating hair and clothing under her own label, so make sure you check out her new items. One of the styles shown is actually a gift from her Subscribo , so make sure you join that when you visit.
The shoes are all from Tesla, and I was blessed to find that her colour palette range, as much as it varies from style to style, allowed for some great matchy matchy colours with the OhMai range. Still loving the Carina skin by LAQ I kept it on for this post, to give you another taste, just in case you didn’t already go and demo it yet.

Fake and then some
Another big thanks to Willow.Z for blogging some items from a new to me store. I caught a pic on her flickr, and just had to go and investigate, not only did I buy everything from the one store, but also the two others in the same sim, by the same talented creators.
Again I wanted to show the versatility of items that aren’t created for everyday wear as such, but more for the lifestyle or RP side of things.
This top is a Camisk style, in a beautiful semi sheer fabric, semi sheer is why you don’t get a full frontal :P. Wearing it with some lovely forest green shorts , and the recent release of the J’s Ankle boots SQUARE TOE , wooohooo, they were so hot in rounded, but the square are just divine, and the buckle on the sides just enhances the love. They have the same beautiful colours as the previous boots, and with the two heels options as well in the menu driven script. I love the stiletto heels with these boots, but depending on terrain the thicker heel is a blessing to have as an option, and genius to have it built in.
The Taffy is a sexy mini Camisk style dress, but it is so playfully cute, that it can be worn on it’s own for the risque, or over trousers such as the fab ones from Fri.day I couldn’t resist. I really love the style of this dress/camisk, as it gives off the illusion of being bound in by an extra layer , it is all one piece, but I would love it if the yellow portion was a seperate layer, imagine that option in a bazillion prints and solids, oh the looks YUM.
This dress is of course full Gorean garb and so incredibly beautiful, I couldn’t resist. I really like the shape of the cloak and veil, they fit perfectly and the lines and shape of the dress is wonderful. I was really impressed also that because the empire portion is attached to the long skirt, it has an inbuilt animation so that you do not end up looking peculiar with your own AO , as well as instructions on how to alter that if needed. Then once done with the gown, I took off the extra’s and added the same pants in another colour and voila, a really fun daytime look. The colour is gorgeous and I really love the billowy look sleeves and witch like collar, ok I have no idea what it’s real name is, but it so reminds me of Samantha’s cousin in Bewitched.
The Comfy set is just that, so many different RP options for this full dress, I was watching anne of green gables tonight, and it would even fit into that style too. But it was of course that incredibly scrumptious looking cardigan over the top that won me. Not only does it come in this lovely soft tan, but I got four different colours in one, seriously for the price it is a steal. Wearing the cardigan with the pants that actually grabbed my attention in the first place, these are the Meow pants from FAKE, a new to me store that is I believe a new collaberation of the creators behind Fantasia and Elements, the two stores who’s items I am also featuring today.Elements and Fantasia are of course the more lifestyle and RP side of things, and FAKE is the more modern look….all three incredible stores are on the same sim, and it is just pure luck that traveling up a beautiful path I found the other two. I should thank Whimsy for her crashing and me just wandering around waiting for her return.
WOWZA , It was instant love for the Salute Jumper also from FAKE, as soon as I had it in my mitts I was wearing it. This whole rockabilly style that is usually definitely male orientated has come out as a fantastic look for women. I think I forced Whimsy to get one too, she got a different colour, I can so imagine us strutting down a road doing a Reservoir Dogs kind of thing. I added the circle cut out socks by Kookie that I totally forgot I bought ages ago, so was super excited to find them, and that there was a great red pair in the pack. I don’t know if you can see it clearly, but I have on a cherry flavoured bling pop ring, this is from FAKE too, and comes with lots of flavours, I kind of couldn’t resist.
This next combo is the one that grabbed my attention first at Fantasia, I actually spent the whole day in this yesterday in different combination’s. First off the full set, then changed the pants to the BF jeans from Maitreya , then settled into this other mix with the red Fakies from Fake, and the addition of the strapless bra from Popfuzz. I do wish that the corset top was a tad higher, so that I didn’t have to add a seperate layer, but the red of the bra worked well, so I’m not too unhappy about it, and I love love love it as a top.Also I am wearing the fabulous Carina skins from LAQ, to me Carina is a natural progression from the Tasha skins, similar features, and beautiful detailing, I really love the soft lift to the mouth, and the full of expression eyes. This skin also comes with the hair base option, so for those like me that bought the hair base hairstyles a few months ago, you now have another beautiful GLOW skin to wear with them. Today the release of also Cleavage Enhancers for the GLOW range, it comes on three layers, and is just WOWZA. As you will see in these next few pics, it is definitely an enhancement, it will only work with the LAQ Glow skins, but if you check the fat pack prices of those you will find them an incredible bargain.
Speaking of hair, I am actually wearing Zero Style hair today. I went and grabbed both the long and the shorter style yesterday and have been back and forth’ing on all three all day and night, I love the longer styles of Camille and Shirley, with the shorter Enrica being so sleek and elegant. The braids style is Dorotea, which is just an adorable style as well.These two tops/camisks are from Elements, and the first two I saw and had to have. For some reason they remind me of vintage star trek, I am not a Treky, but that was my era, so I did actually watch every week, and the women of the different planets always had such beautiful clothes like these. The top of the left as you can see sort of on the far right, is as plunging at the front as the back , but it also has those nipple highlights I’m not a huge fan of in public, mind you I think if I am going to wear such plungey clothing I can get over it :P.
The skirt I am wearing is from Popfuzz, it’s the belted mini and these come in so handy for finishing off a look.
Holy smokes, this is again a Gorean style thingymajig, ok I am not sure if it’s a camisk as it has the prim part, but whichever it is, I had to have it because of the top :P. The choices of fabrics on all the clothing, from both the Fantasia and Elements stores are just beautiful and rich, the gold on red in this combo is beautiful and teamed up with some charcoal, it is divine. Mind you I don’t know how anyone will be able to tell what colour you have on with the top, if you wear the same skin and enhancements.
Lastly in another beautiful rich red, the Turian tied camisk is a perfectly gorgeous option for swimwear. Or at the very least, laying by the pool wear. As you can see the rest of the Carina body is really well detailed, and the skin tones are lovely, this being the nougat.I could have spent a lot more at all three stores, and I do hope that both creators get to making me more temptations. Such a fantastic load of talent on one beautiful sim.

Wipe Outtttttttttttttttttt
Going with a little bit of a theme in a round about way today. I actually blame Grazia for this one, I ran into her out shopping and she reminded me that it was about time I went to the store I kept saying I had to go to soon. So off I went and bought as much as I could before I got tpd away.
I actually snuck back again today to get more :P. The dresses the seperates, they all work. Also the featured items in this post are the beautiful new make ups in the Beach Skin range by Gala @ Curio , they are themed for the lovely beach/ocean creatures and forms of nature found in such places. The colours and blend of lips and eye makeups as usual are inspired. Ranging from dramatic black pearl, to the every present pure, from day to night you are covered.
Another feature is the fabulous NEW Ankle boots by J’s. These boots are just scrumptious, the colours available are a mix and match dream, and the texture of the leather is truly superb. My all time favourite thing though is that even though these are made with the invisi prim on the foot and the boot on the lower leg, which makes me cranky because I can’t wear my favourite boots with pants untucked, but JB has made a version for pants wearing, allowing the boots foot to be worn on the actual foot as you don’t need the upper portion of the boot anyway, YAY THANK YOU THANK YOU.
Lately Zaara’s has been providing us with not just beautiful clothing, but incredibly textured accessories, in the Jewelry department. The Vyomini chained bracelet is one such item, coming in gold or silver option, with onyx or turquoise as the choice of semi precious gemstones. The bracelet is a chain style wrapped around the forearm and wrist and threading its way to the palm. I really enjoy this style as well as all the other beautiful and inspirational pieces in the recent releases.
Hair has always been an addiction of mine, I watching creators grow, adapt and blossom is always a delight, and then there is the New to hair creators, Miel has just broken into the hair making market, via The Black Market, a new collab location of fantastic creative content. Also breaking into hair is our own Aradia Dielli who has recently taken up the styling wand and started creating hair for LeLutka, her first style is named after her much adored Sister Kiana of Addict.
Red Queen has been making requests of more Anime inspired hair, and Magika has been retexturing the whole store, with House of Munster having a 50% off SALE …it is a great time for hair :).
All of the fabulous Sand Shack Surf – I really have issues with saying that in voice lol – clothing I just loved wearing, the Dock dress in red was a second purchase, regret not getting all three now, it is a delightful frock, as is the Colleen. The Rachel one pieces are a divine swimsuit/leotard that I have paired with the foofoo tutu by Canimal, making a really adorable look.

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.

Holey Moley
Over the years there have been many reasons to visit the store, or run into the Designer and her items that I am featuring today. The first time I landed there was because of something I read, the second time was because of Pirate boots and not only did I walk out with those, but also some Yeti ones as well – goes to find them to put them on, they should keep me warm. Wooohooooo * clomps around in my fox fur yeti boots.
Ok where was I, oh yeah, third was at a Charity Auction were the Mens suit came out on a lady,the fourth time was for an Aussie Bikini, and the most recent was not to the actual store, but to see the designer on Fabulous Fashion…now originally I went to the taping to see Zoe Demar as guest stylist, but I was ever so excited to be able to actually sit in on the taping of one of our long time, and wonderful resident Designers Swaffette Firefly as a guest of the show.
For a start, if you have ever wondered, or in fact thought about it at all, I think she sounds exactly how you might imagine. Swaffette Firefly has a lovely speaking voice with an adorable accent. She spoke passionately about her designs, the process, and her past and future with Second Life, it was actually a really captivating show, I could have listened to her all day.
Anyway I am rambling, and I totally meant for this to be a short post, almost as short as the sexy Crochet ensemble I am featuring from SF Designs today. If like me you were around at all in the 70’s , I was born then but I remember it well, you will find this look very familiar. The crochet look was huge, if you had a nana that crocheted you were set, but then convincing them to make you an itty bitty bikini wasn’t always so easy.
I didn’t have the nana, but I did have a store bought pink crochet bikini, and you cannot get them wet, they are for enjoying the sun in, nothing more. The one that comes with this Caribbean Crochet set is beautiful, not only is it white and able to show off your tan splendidly, but it has the lovely addition of beads at the cleavage, straps and ties..a really nice look and a touch of colour.
The dress has two options, cheeky and discreet, note the cheeky is just that, but of course you can wear the bikini bottoms under it, the bikini top as well if you wish too, but the straps and style of the tops don’t go together as well , so on it’s own is just right.
There is something definitely naughty about crochet, I don’t know why, but even though you are covered, you can end up feeling way more exposed than if you were wearing less. I guess that is the whole idea, definitely an outfit for Second Life, with the weather always permitting, this is an ensemble that is perfect for walks along the beach, enjoying time outdoors, and definitely, definitely for enticing your partner with.
If you want to check out the PERFECT place, and I do mean PERFECT place for island items,a beautiful store – uses the word store ever so loosely – is a place created by Tobias Novi, I have a few of his pieces at The Deck , and I wish I had room for more, his work is stunning and prim count will be a thing of the past once you start buying from there, everything is huge and yet little prims used.
He does a lot of the outside sim reefs and islands, also his inside sim stuff is just gorgeous, his tree houses need to be seen and enjoyed, so grab some friends and explore his sims, and be amazed like I was that they are homesteads. Also look for the squirrel house , it is a work of art.

Rhinestone Cowgirl
I was tempted to call this post “On a wing and a prayer” then of course I couldn’t not use the oppurtunity to be totally corny and call it RhineStone Cowgirl. Prety much when and “IF” Stormtroopers go to Heaven the first picture is what they would end up looking like.
I was wearing that outfit earlier, when a conference IM shot forth from Cajsa Lilliehook of It’s Only Fashion, that it was her Second Rezday….Happy Rezday Cajsa ♥. “Come as you are” was the IM, that so didn’t happen lol. I was actually skipping around in the prim parts of that outfit all day, but the latex was added for the post, mind you I do run around like that too sometimes.
I had actually wanted to show the latex for some while, and the combo struck me as a bonus, as the white latex I had wasn’t really white enough, so didn’t work. Im not really sure if the Tech wings and boots actually rate as cell shaded, because I am not sure how that all really works, but it is close enough for me, and I had always wanted something cell shaded that wasn’t a cartoon. I have to admit too , that the boots kind of reminded me of Marvin the Paranoid Android from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, the 2005 movie one not the original.
The latex is part of a set, that you can actually buy a starters pack, and then add all the necessary components you may or may not need. The latex is marvelously structured, and I really really really want the person that made it to make more, they only have a small amount, and they really really really need to make more, the red is also HOT HOT HOT.
The Wing part was obviously the first pic, the Prayer part the second, seriously I have sore butt cheeks from clenching to keep these pants up. Nah just kidding, but seriously if I could make clothes, the first thing I would have done as soon as I saw these insanely low rider jeans, would be to make a garter belt with straps that clip at the waist band lol, plus I think not only would it be fun , but totally wicked. Or maybe even suspender extenders , lol say that three times fast.
Fact of the matter is, that it is dependent on your shape as to how low they look, my hip length is 50 I never change my shape for blogging, so if you have shorter hips they wont look as low at the back lol.
All in all they are an ode to gravity. The tops worn with are adorable, and the print options are really lovely. I kind of love the idea that the argyle is called Nerdy, because they are far from that when worn. How adorable is that hat/hair, its all sorts of win, with the rhinestones perfectly textured, and not only can you change the colour of the hat on click, but also you can opt for with and without the stones, which is a nice option definitely.
The skin is New and just gorgeous, especially take notice of the eyeshadow on this release, the blues and silver, with the catseye liner is splendid. Now so glossy, more of a shimmery look to the lipstick you will find with these skins. There are light and dark brow versions as well as tattoo options on the skin itself, which can be fun.
Make sure you give the Demos a spin and really enjoy the makeups, they are so heavenly.

Glamazon
Futuristic Glamazon, that is the first thing that comes to mind with the Cai Suit. The second is usually high society women with little white yapping dogs, lol, either way, the outfit has a definite appeal for an empowered woman. The pants have a definite tailored quality to them, and the sculpties are really well textured, they will again require some modding, due to the sizes they are made. I guess the arm pieces being built so small is a bonus, as often it is easier to resize up than down.
The bottom of the pants are also sculpted to appear tight and scrunched, but I opted for some other Glamazon items in the form of the Over the Knee black boots by Storm Schmooz. I went on a buying spree at ::69:: tonight before I started taking pics, I think I bought a lot of hair lol. I got some of the new – maybe all I’m not sure, and a few others I didn’t already have.
They have returned somewhat to their original kind of style, which is a great thing, because I needed more hat hair. I am also in love with the options, one such option is that the hair I am wearing in black has either regular sides or cornrows option, very cool. I also managed to edit one of the hats shown, to now have SS instead of SN, but I didn’t want to confuse the issue – and yes it then lead me to make SS drawing pins to hold up my polaroids.
LeLutka went swimwear crazy this latest release, and the mix is extremely flattering for all shapes and sizes, easily modified sculpties, and really lovely prints and colours.
Usually when showing a store that has skins, I feature that skin also, but today I misbehaved. This is Nadia, a new skin by Staged. It was created to be a darker skin line, and the light tan I am wearing in the main pics is just a little bit darker than you would be used to with a light tan.
The body is just gorgeous, and look *squeels* lower back dimples. My ex used to say that those were the sexiest thing on a woman, I think he used to add aside from him, but then what do you expect, he is a man after all. Showing a few make up options on the pics, the make up goes from natural blends to highly dramatic nightwear. The shadow is very metalic and almost shimmery which is just great, the lips again are a mix, and more matte than glossy, but the combination definitely works.
You get two options with the skins, shaved and not shaved, and the size of these bikinis and others I have been featuring lately, it’s a bonus to have choice, or have I said that already :P.

What’s in a name
What’s in a name, well today lots and lots. A few months back Dove Swanson of Long Awkward Pose asked some of us to choose a rl picture that we like the real pose in, and she would try and recreate it for us. Yesterday she released the Wonder Girls pose set and I was so excited to see that my choice made the cut.
I decided it might be fun to do a pic with each pose; in a kind of look of the person it was named after, now I don’t know all of the people, and some that I do know I had to mix some things up, but it was my ownfun and entertaining way to cope with not being able to sleep.

It was so much fun dressing up as Achariya, I combined two old favs from Ghost that is now Triangle. The Skirt comes in handy for all sorts of fabulous looks. This pose is ideal for holding things, and the bandaged kitty from PF was an ideal blend with this look.

I totally believe that Autumn would just cop a squat anywhere and take a call, a recent hair release from her own store is just adorable, and so suited to the fabulous Nautical set by Roslin Petion of 5th&Oxford (Previously not on Buffy but Fleur). You cannot see enough of the clothing to give it justice , but take my word for it, if you are into highwaist double buttoned sailor pants, THESE are a MUST HAVE. Also must haves are the thongs on my feet, they are FREE at the horror festival at Drowsy, get them in all colours , I was so excited to find a great pair , and free just made them awesome.

This pose, and the name, what else could I shoot but Lingerie, and fine a lush lingerie it is. Recently Blowpop released this set and it’s just awesome, seriously if Annyka doesn’t keep making clothes, we will have to stage a sit in. The lace topped stockings are sold as seperates, which is great as they come in different sheer depths and are a great price. Often you just need stockings because you have all the other pieces already.

The first time I ever saw this hair, or any hair by lamb for that matter; it was on Dakota Buck. This pose is fabulous as it has a definite, I’m waiiiiiting but I’m being very cool about it look. I mixed a lot of TRUTH items in this look, I adore the cardigan coat, big and long and wintery warm…it is so what I need right this second. If you look really hard I didn’t credit it, because you cannot buy it , but there is a sneaky touch of Savvy in there :P.

5th&Oxford with their rebranding came new skins, Audrey is the name and with that comes the classy looks that Fleur in the past was reknowned for. Lips that are full and poutyful, with a lovely and delicate skin tone, semi porceline looking but with some peaches thrown in.Also from the festival, I think I bought everything, the bag I am carrying was actually the bag the bandage eyes comes in, I thought the bag was so cute I had to wear it as an accessory.

Yes , not often or ever would you see me in a shirt like this one, Ryker made them a while back for fits and giggles. Definitely a pose in suiting with her character, peace love and mungbeans baby. I love these jeans by the way, they were made an eon ago under her Lix label, yes Ryker made them too, I don’t know if they are even sold anywhere as they were from her old store..but you should harass her if they arent.

Another item I got at the festival was this tunic top, it is so folksy that it reminded me of the first thing Shir made, which featured an embroidered look. Yes I am loving my thongs, they are so cool, I walk around barefoot so much in RL and SL, so these will come in so handy , or feety.

Actually the first chance I have had to wear alllll the pieces to the Nizam set, it is primtastical but at my own home if anyone complained I’d have ejected them, well actually I wouldn’t the security would because they shouldn’t be in my house lol. Such an incredible set, and what better place to show diversity and your love for cultural pieces than in Second Life.
Click for Slurls PageThanks again Dove so much for these wonderful poses, they are really great and I can’t wait to see the next instalment.

Fishing >
Fishy in the waterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. It started out with some love for some leggings, and ended up a shopping expedition, with girls in voice conference poking at each other and laughing and loving, what fun.
It was another one of those days yesterday, pick up one, lose two, add another and shopping until we dropped, or at least until I had lots of work to do. There was all sorts of ooooooing and ahhhhhhhhhhhing from me, I literally had a hairgasm right there. I love love love the styles at Fishy Strawberry, they are big hair lovers dream hair, but controlled and styled in a way as to not be overly big hair…yes it totally makes sense in my head – or in this case ON my head 😛 .
Both styles Huntress one and two are just YUM, the way its backcombed and pinned in place, the braids on one, the vivaciousness of two , it all works. The clothing in pic one also had me squeeling, the leather pants are to die for, tight and shiny, with the twisted leather wrap around the waist and tied up at the back, ok way too cool.The cuffs of the pants are just perfectly scrunched too, fitting well over my snakeskin heels. The Material girl Bustier is also an item that I had to have, it comes in other colours, but I wanted it to match my perfectly divine leather Benetar pants, do you feel the earth moving under your feet ?.
The second pic is a blend of the fabulous leggings that started the whole thing, the swan lake leggings in black are just lovely, they come in three options on all layers, and the white are available at the new Fishy Strawberry satelite store at Macos Mall. The leggings are a sheer fabric, so obviously delicate, that the versions become shredded and holey in the other options, very effective and prettyful with the criss cross leg ties at the base of them.
I have put on this skirt so many times to blog it, I finally got there Marni, and I am actually glad I waited, because these leggings are just perfect with this floral tutu style. The large rubbery looking flowers are fun, especially in this style, overly magnificant it has a real runway look to it.
Laundry day is such a fun bra and panties set, it has a real playful look to it, the colours, the prints and just the over all design, I love the panties, as they are definitely real panties, in a design that reminds me of being a kid.
The Kim skin is the latest release from PXL , the skin is a smoldering blend of make ups, with so many options, it is fantastic, not only do you get eyebrow colour options, but also hair base options, and the hair base is fantastic, also coming with a very nicely coifed bun for wearing as an extra tight do. The bodies are of course as usual fantastic, and WOOOOOOOHOOOOOO Hart gave in and we now have bare down there lol , ok I am not sure exactly when he gave in , but he did, so now for the non bare option there are underpants layers for those that can’t bare bare.
But again with the clothing getting lower and lower this year, you really do need to invest in skins that have that option. The tones of the Kim skin as you can see vary from soft and pale luminous looking skin tone to a deep dark tan, covering many preferences of tone choice. DEMO DEMO DEMO and while you are there get your partners to check out the male skins too, yum.
