Print-sess Sasypants
After the wall and window, a billboard just had to be next, right? I found it hilarious that the background sky in the stock image was so clear, devoid of any clouds, it had me wanting wind light in there, which is funny, because with my settings so that I see things the way I need to, I don’t have clouds either, pretty much other than the tone, that is exactly how I see the sky day to day.
One of the hardest things with clothes making to work with I think, would have to be prints. The way the mesh works, and distorts, and then of course the upper and lower portion of the top half of the body. Who knew you had to make the bottom part larger to get it to match? well luckily for us, many creators do know that, and LeeZu actually did a great tutorial on just that recently on her website.
Side seams however do not phase me, some people get all wanky about it, but when is the last time you saw print in RL match on the sides, it is just not economically viable in RL to cut fabric that way because of waste and time. Possibly if the item was screen printed after being made into clothing, then it would work, but still, I am just not that nutso about it. The difference though in seam speak is that people need to explain when they mean print meeting, and not sides joining…because they are two different things. If the front doesn’t join to the back without a big obvious flaw gap with the underarm area looking all crazy, then that is just not so cool. Worse still if it isn’t hidden under the arms at all, like socks or the tops of pants, then that should never go to the wall – by that I mean set for sale.
Anyway I am rambling, and what I am rambling about, other than a great use of prints, has nothing to do with this post lol. Tutti Frutti is a store that boldly goes to the wall lol, the prints in her store are marvelous, and the pants are just HOT HOT HOT, recently Bela had a set of pants for a gift at The Deck and they were all I wore for a few days, so comfy and fun. These new pants just released are gorgeous, hard to choose which ones to favourite, as they all have such stand out qualities. I would have to say though I am partial to the Under Roses jeans, and the ones featured on the billboard are my ode to Newdolls Feet :P.
With the NEW Aequus shoes by Maitreya Gold having the ability to two tone it, I found it a must to go with as much colour as possible. Toning it down with the stunning skin by Tuli that has been created for The Dressing Room – Info about that in Tuli’s Group notices – at a phenomenal discount. The Aequus shoes are a stunning pvc sheen leather with ankle wraps kept on with delicate straps and buckles, I really like the ankle wrap addition, because it gives the straps a nice background, letting them stand out more as a feature than practical workings of the shoes.
I am wearing more Fri.day Hair, that SALE was and still is awesome, so make sure you take the time to get over there, and creators, if you often take pics because of vendor ads etc, now is the time to stock up on hair for future ads, make the most of the bargains. You will also notice when looking at the Fri.day ads that Pavarti wears a lot of Tuli in her ads, YAY Tuli.

BAM BABY BANG
I like this one even more than the other, I am going to have fun with this background etc.
More summer lovin coming from the LeLutka side of town. This time not only items by Thora Charron but also Kianna Noel, one of the newer team of LeLutka Designers. The lovely tops in the first and third picture are by Kianna, and the first one is my favourite of the two just because of the options and the bra.
The Junia Jeans are going to be a great wear this season, the colours are great, and the fit is perfect. Not too high, not too low, they fit the hips just right. I was playing around with the hats from LeLutka, and am excited that in the coming weeks there will be more hats added to the mix, I cannot wait for that.
STOP Hammer Time, seriously I wore these pants for three days straight and built a house, they were that comfortable I just got into a zone wearing them, was so excited too, it might never get finished, but I made all the furniture and the textures and everything, I think I took the hammer part too literally lol.
The pants and the beautiful sarong style tops are going to be great for summer walks along the beach, or just those days when you find yourself staring off into the horizon as you answer IM after IM, you may as well look fantastic doing it right?
Do you remember life before sculpties? I don’t honestly always believe they are necessary, and I still think some of the most incredible work in SL is still done with prims – perfect example the Jewelry I am wearing.
But sometimes you get this Oh WOW! how did they do that? feeling over an item or part of. That is how it was with the clasps on these pants, a sturdy push and snap system we are all familiar with RL, but sometimes when it is done with sculpties it really helps appreciate the talent and process, and how far we have come with content over the years. Something as simple as snap fasteners on pants can do that. Or even in this case the unzipped cuffs, these pants are so cute, and the print on the back even more so, but I left that up to you to find out about.

Beach Baby
I had fun playing around with my backdrop idea today, the one thing that drives me a bit nuts about blogging is how to present my pics, seriously I get all stressed and then end up doing them the same way because it feels safer. Hopefully you are paying way too much attention to the items worn to really care that much about the rest :).
The first dress is OMG Fun, not only do I love the style of the dress, and its concept as a beach throw style, but the vintage prints just make it that much better, going back to being a kid and spending most of my time in the water, and it having been the 70’s I know that I and all my friends had these kinds of dresses to muck about in.
The Ferine outfits in the second pic are animal print heaven. If you build it they will come, I know that animal print fans are just like purple fans, if you put it there they will run to it. Whimsy is like that with animal print, which is probably what makes me appreciate it more. The options for this set are great, taking it down a notch and back up again. Animal print is not for the shy, but if you want to bust out of that shyness it would be an interesting way to go.
Wrapping it all up with a swoosh and a swish in the true frockyness of the TeaTime dress by Exodi. Delicately edged and so pretty, it is the perfect weekender, and for me it is about to be Sunday, so it would be perfect if it wasn’t pouring rain here. I love the almost spanish looking romance hair by Magika that I wore with these dresses, with the hair roses perfectly matching the colours of the dress I am set, but I would easily see wearing a large brimmed sun hat too. Maybe next time. The shoes I am wearing are oldies but goodies and they had the perfect colour companions to the dresses, the shoes are from Insolence, and are so lovely to wear with this style look.
Whatever your plans are for the weekend, one of these three should have you covered.
P.S I know I don’t have shadows in the second and third pic, I decided only the top one had sunshine 😛

Gobble Gobble
Today is International Lens Flare Day, apparently somewhere in Canada they celebrate this day by lighting sparklers to show their appreciation for this wonderful photo tool.
If you believed that, then I have a bridge you may be interested in purchasing :P. Actually I was just playing on the first pic, and while in voice with Whimsy we made up today’s so called holiday…you never know though, somewhere it could be true.
The other day LeLutka did their first Summer release, there are still more to come as I mentioned previously. Some of the items shown today are already out, and some are due for release…some aren’t even LeLutka at all. First off we have the beautiful cocktail dresses. Pictures one and two both have such beautiful style about them. The colours available are strong but soft all at the same time. The oversized bow is fabulous, because not only is it wonderful sculptie work, but of course in RL that is exactly how that kind of style would come off.
Anything that looks like that, always makes me think the designer had naked in mind, a quick tug and lots of fabric folds on the floor. The second dress is just beautiful with its gem encrusted neckpiece, that is part of the breast piece that has that authentic away from body look. I am really impressed with the use of shadows on this collection, giving them a definite realism. Not only is the animal print on the bottom of these dresses rawr worthy, but the scalloped edging is so soft and fluttery, a definite crowd pleaser on the dance floor.
I added a mini top hat from Canimal, that with the animal print and skull heads, had a real lion tamer quality going on, so much fun for a party. The hair I am wearing in pic two is a new release from Anaphora, a reworking of an older style, adding not only fabulous new textures but the benefit of extra length.
The next pic is my love of all thinks folksy, the shirt is going to be forever known as my turkey shirt, and the pants are just awesome. You cannot really tell with the top on, but they have a crossed over bib front look that is just marvelous. I could wear this look all weekend and shop until I drop, that is drop off one pile of bags and pick up more of course.
The hair is also new from W & Y , and so gorgeous, the Jewelry headpiece comes in a huge range of gem choices, and seriously I had no idea they had options, it was love at first sight anyway. This whole summer collection reminds me of markets, the casual clothing especially, as it has a real handmade quality, and my turkey shirt I know would be so soft and yummy.
Haha this next look is my beatbox look, I was all ready to twirl on my cardboard box in this look, but I might hurt myself. This might not be your usual rapper look, but for me it has that running home from a dance studio thing going on, and those pants, OMG TO DIE FOR. They are thick and wool and so perfect, the colours, the wide leggedness, they are vintage all the way. I am surprised they are a summer release but THANK YOU for making them.
One of the most noticeable things about the pants are that they are sculpted as much up top as the bottom, and the attention to detail makes them just beautiful. Two more great hairs from W & Y but these are not new, so they are on the back area on the right, and perfect hat hairs, with so many options.
These next pants are also a pleasure to wear, and when Thora declared she had just made the most awesome pants, she wasn’t exaggerating. These are SCHWING! The fabric is divine, the prints are amazing, and the overall feminine quality of them, leading back to many decades ago, is just perfect. I mixed them with the recent one piece swimsuits from Surf Co. that actually look fab as a top. But not only that, because slipping out of the pants and into the pool or ocean is a given, as they are resort wear plus.
The pieces not available now will be soon, so make sure you take notes and get ready.

Wetlands is my …..
I was feeling all ready to take a hundred pics today, and then I got all turned around and upside downed and gave up after one lol. It started out with the middle outfit, and then I just liked the idea of black n’ white with a touch of pink. Usually this combo would steer towards red as the colour splash, but I went a little louder.
Black and white makes such an great backdrop, and with the stunning creations all over SL it isn’t hard to find pieces you love. With the middle dress though, this is more of an oldy, that was also a great bargain, it actually came with red pearls. I am not a huge fan of how the finish is done around the neck, but the overall look is there. If you have a more tailored look in similar print, you can play around with that too.
I dragged Whimsy over to INDI yesterday, and she proceeded to be driven around in her new ‘float’ that was a group gift from Thistle…all laughing aside we shopped in the new hair salon, and the styles I picked up are gorgeous. Not just the style and primwork, but the textures have such great depth and highlights to them, they are beautiful to wear, and very cost friendly on both packs and fatpacks. The Modeno style looks great with the smokey deep eye make up of the LOLA skin by LeLutka. Even though I can choose from a number of lipsticks with this new fabulous skin, I chose to go nude lips, because there is enough slash pink in the clothing and accessories.
The bubble skirt dresses from Maitreya are an 80’s lovers dream, balloon skirts were all the rage mid 80’s and if I combined the top of the left skirt, with the balloon of the right, and added black and white stripes I would have my favourite. Now that I look at the pic composite I think that’s what I was channeling lol.
Thank goodness again for layers and mod, modding done to my sunglasses and belt in the middle, adding a slight tint to the already colours, to get them to be more like the pink of my leggings. The fabulous corset by Sn@tch is so well structured and available on all layers, so with the skirt taking up the jacket layer, I was still able to wear it…cries big sobs when people only put things on jacket layer, it totally makes them unwearable most times.
Ok that is me out for now, off to work out some Hair Fair business and run around Stormwind with Whimsy, it is her equivalent of old Gurl 6, I would explain but you wouldn’t believe me. Don’t forget to Join the Subscribo Matic at The Deck Landing point so you can keep up to date on Hair Fair info .

What Lola wants Lola gets
I have had a semi trailer parked on my platform for weeks now, I could have just left the box out to remind me, but I honest to goodness think that the truck is the most awesome rezzer.
It is in fact the rezzer for Not so Bad, the furniture and prefab store that creates some incredibly beautiful items. Most of which have a Moroccan dynamic, which is evident in the Riad style so traditionally of that culture. A Riad is a house designed around an inside garden, and the Riad themed houses by NSB are as beautiful as the real thing.
There are different doorways, and hidden rooms. With a magnificent rooftop and pool area with its own built in poses. I definitely love the garden bath with its floating petals, such a beautiful build that you will spend many hours luxuriating in.
The reason I am showing these items, is not just because of how beautiful they are, but also because for another few days all of the Prefabs and NEW Beds are 20% off. So if you have been oooing and aaaing and haven’t taken the plunge, now is definitely the time.
The prefabs are gorgeous, but my favourite items would have to be the furniture, the rich fabrics just add an incredible amount of class to any home, even if you don’t have one of theirs. The true to style tile like edging to the sofa shown blows me over everytime I look at it, and the sheer curtains on the four poster bed are just gorgeous.
I actually used the poses from the Reflections set by aDORKable for the standing poses in that pic, they were perfect in their column/doorway style. I hope everyone got their Gift Kite poses over the weekend, if not they are still out but shhh I didn’t say anything :P.
The so pretty bodysuit I have on by PIG was a 50L Friday item, but I went over tonight to make sure that it was also buy-able, on landing their lucky board was an S and I won the same body suit in another unique colour, how wicked is that lol. Then I did find them on the wall in different colours, so even though you can’t get this shade of pink there are other lovely colours available, and if you can get out of there without buying lots like I did, then you are very strong. Their clothing line is a mix of what I wish to see more of in SL for different reasons, and also it is just all very pretty.
The other clothing items are some of the pieces I bought tonight and in the past, the shorts come with cuffs for both men or women, which makes them perfectly uni-sexy. The other outfit, comes with so many options that I just had to wear folder at first and go from there. Not only opaque versions but also sheer. As you can see on the left that is one of the options of the outfit on the right, but with the added benefit of girdle and suspended stockings by Maitreya.
The outdoor settings are just as fabulous, this set having seats for four, with either single sits or couples, and I love the table across the middle, earlier I had my make up set out and it totally felt like a spa day. Just the kind of set to invite some friends over to use with you, and then paddle in the pool to cool off.
Moving on to other newness, first off how cute are the latest shoes/booties by Tesla – yay for her being back. These shoes reminded me of Rachel Breaker’s store and it was just after I got my new carousel, so I took Tesla over there for her to see the amazing creations of Rachel, and to give my new boots a whirl around the grid…they are like clompy bowling shoes with heels.
The nails I have on are a recent release from Page 3, Jag sent them over and we chatted lots about them, and then next thing you know they went back to the drawing board and more was added. These are wicked cool. I am only showing one hand, because that’s how I roll :P.
Ok so not only do you get a fully packed hud that allows you to change nailpolish colours, but you also get FOUR tips versions, the gold and silver are WICKED – I am biased because that was my idea lol – then you have the word rings, with other rings all set out to wear in four different metals, and with or without words or without extra rings, OMG so much choice.
Lastly but again SO MUCH CHOICE the about to be released skins by LeLutka are just amazing for value. By our calculations – ok really Mels I just threw numbers at him – there would be 712 options of skins if you were to buy the fat pack of one tone. 8 skin with nude lips, then 11 lipsticks on the tattoo layers. It is very important you realise that this is a V2 compatible skin, without v2 you will only be able to wear the skins with nude lips which are still gorgeous. Then you have cleavage options and pubic options so combining all that together gives you hundreds of looks. Seeing as the math took into account the pubic, lets half that for what you can actually see – unless a nudist – that is still 356 choices for each day, and such a beautiful skin to start off with.
Also with Lola there are two hair attachments to go with the hairbase look, one being a stunning backcombed bun with braided crown, and the second – not shown – is a floral garland half pulled pony that I love but wasn’t dressed for. I have a feeling that tomorrow is going to be a very full day at LeLutka, not too sure if all will happen at once, but I do know that there are some incredible clothing pieces about to be released from over there also, so make sure you are on standby if a diehard LeLutka fan.
The Mouth of Lola is different than previous, so if the wider lips look hasn’t been your thing in the past, then Lola is going to be right up your alley. The hairbase is exceptional as usual, I am often seen only in it if you run into me, I did also notice a few changes to the body that you may or may not notice depending on your experience with LeLutka, but definitely all positive changes. When it comes down to it, Lola is an incredibly striking skin. Do not forget to demo first, and make sure if you do not already use it, you get an updated V2 viewer before tomorrow.

Biker Straps
Wow this week has been flying by…getting everything sorted for The Deck’s first birthday, I have already seen some of the beautiful items being given over the weekend, and I am floored by the generosity of the creators. I even found the cutest balloon fountains to decorate with, but as they are particles I am keeping them mostly out of avatar range so that no one ends up in a grey squares attack…I remember being new and poofers were all the rage, and you would tp somewhere and suddenly be swarmed by them. It used to scare the hell out of me.
The new dresses by Luck Inc are so much fun to play with, I totally distracted myself the other day playing with combinations just with themselves. Due to the layering and options, I could have gone on to introduce other items and totally gotten lost. The style has a semi open buttoned look that is great for casual running around, add a belt etc, but then you have the pulled down and under effect that reveals, well lots really. By adding one of the other layers from a different colour you get in my opinion a great contrast look.
Even more exciting was not only do the colours come in a great range, but they were easily matchable to the knee high boots from LAQ. I really like not only the two tone look ( the gold boots have black leather inserts) but also the bikerish style with the leather straps and that biker chaps combination but in footwear…you know the ones…those leather pants that use another colour instead of a cutout.
I am wearing the unBra skin again, I did mention last post that now it has four cleavage options, and because of that I had to wear something that showed off my favourite which are one and two, this time due to the open nature of the dress I went with the more relaxed version in the one. It is fabulous to have that kind of option, to be able to look at an outfit and say ‘what is keeping them together?” if nothing then you just need to go with the more relaxed version if there is one, and if totally confined then enhancement is definitely the way to go.
I am at IOW right now watching a gathering of residents have a social chat, it is lovely when sims are still that way after so many years….have a great week all, and don’t forget to come visit me at The Deck over the weekend.

Date Night
Wow the weekend flew past, I don’t even know what we did, I know I turned SL 4 that’s about it. I do know though that I introduced Whimsy to the dark side, now that she has a WoW account we have been killing things and such, and to find her now I have to go looking there. I have also been reading a lot more lately, and a lot of what I read is total rubbish, I am the first to admit it. But I enjoy it and that is the main thing.
I am looking forward to this weekend though, as it will be our celebration of The Deck being around for just over a year, and many of the designers that have stores there are going to be giving gifts over the weekend, so I will enjoy getting to see many people come back and revisit The Deck…it is amazing how fast the year has gone. I also cannot wait to see what will be given as gifts, it will be like birthday pressies for everyone, so exciting.
The Larin skirt by Zaara is so beautiful, it isn’t just because of it’s highwaistedness, or the beautiful textures, but more so to do with the incredible workmanship of the prims. The creating of proper draped looking alpha textures; without losing to alpha glimmers, or any of the other things that limit the true beauty of SL creation. The prim work is so smooth and fits to the contour of the body seamlessly, I haven’t had to resize or edit in anyway and yet can barely even see where the skirt meets the glitch pants.
What I think is an absolute shame though, is that the Larin belt and cinch part of the skirt are not separate… I think that personally the texture of that part of the skirt is wonderful, and it is such a shame to be not able to wear it over other items. I wish Zaara would get those files out, erase all that is not the cinched part and make it in many more colours on all layers, I think that could even liven up the skirts for many that wore them to death on release, there are print ones that if the upper portion was in the colours of the pattern may make an interesting combo…or even if the thin belts on the same bases were different, imagine the ivory skirt with a red belt or turquoise and so on, MORE BELTS please Zaara .
I went with three different looks, these for me are perfect early evening to wherever the night takes you looks. Something that you feel comfortable in, but extremely feminine and stylish. The perfect Date night look.
Recently Whippet & Buck (gosh I love that store) had out some bustiers in solids, that previously had been print only…they were part of the 50L friday, but if they are out now as a regular priced item and you didn’t get them, go get them now, well worth it. They make the perfect balance for extending a look like this one, into a dressier look, or as a modesty covering such as in the second pic.
I adore the Ontible dress from Le Lutka and this is the first time I have actually worn it with the sleeves, as previously after release I never did. Looking back HERE I realise I have never worn it the way it comes in the box lol. Loving layers, wearing the bustier from W&B with the shirt layer of the actual Ontibile dress that just tucks up under the breasts, and still having the room for the jacket layer of the skirt, that is total win.
I hope you have been noticing my beautiful new skin, this is the latest release from UnBra. Mayara is a gorgeous skin with not one, not two but FOUR cleavage options. This skin goes all out on accomodating the needs of all. With the beautiful body work, and I am totally happy that there are different cleavages, but also hair bases, and as far as going all out to show you the major details of the product there is included an image showing the RGB value of the skins, not only does this benefit for shoes, but also when tinting gloves for nails.
There are enough make ups in this skin line to please everyone, actually I could do with about twenty or so more, but it definitely covers from day to night and a little bit of fantasy thrown in for good measure.
The poses are the new poses from /Geez by Grazia Horwitz, she recently reopened her pose store during pose fair, and has been creating poses for men and women ever since, so make sure you check it out.
Now speaking of tinting feet, Maitreya has recently updated their Shanti and Esprit -XTD shoes, so if you go to the redelivery terminals in their Maitreya Gold store you can press the machine and get the updated versions. The updates have less scripts and more win, with the fat pack version having an all in one click-able pair that is great for fast changing, as well as V2.0 options getting rid of the invisi prim look.
Further updates will follow, but make sure you get your Shanti and Esprit XTD as soon as you can.

Fudge
I was feeling chocolatey tonight, has to do with having a headache probably…when all else fails crave something that will make it worse lol.
A few weeks ago G’field sent out some boots as a group gift, they were so pretty I had to go and grab some more, in wearable for me colours. I really like how they set up their shoes/boots, in mini packs of tones that work together at a saving, as well as being able to get in singles or a megapack. These are so lovely with everyday fashion, but have that total steampunk Victorian look down pat, that if you tend to go for theme dressing, they will come in handy for sure.
Some newness and older pieces mixed together. The League Thermal collection has been added to recently, and if you didn’t give it a go the first time, you should so totally go back and rethink it. The textures on these pieces are just so snuggly, and the skirts and tops mix so well together with other pieces, as shown here with the new Early morning cardigans by Fishy Strawberry. The cardigans come with or without shirt underneath in black, but I went for both with and without but with the added turtleneck in cashmere by BOOM.
The billy denim shorts are another new item from FS and they do come with a belt, but I opted for without this time around. The great thing about the belt though is that it comes in scripted or MOD versions which is just awesome.
I am a big fan of the clothing pallette of Miel, the colours they stick too work so well when blending their own items together, which just work so beautifully… but then you can also intersperse them with other items from elsewhere along the same spectrum. Such was the case with the newish Urbanity Camo high waisted skirt. The top from the Tulip set of Miels went so well with the Camo skirt I was very happy with the blend.
make the most of the cooler days, because everyone is going to be cranky with the heat, and all of us down here are going to be freezing in the cold, and yeah yeah it doesn’t get that cold according to you lot down here, but it doesn’t mean we don’t suffer and complain :p.

Bedhead
I had an amazing morning, I got to talk to some lovely people, and then went on a journey to a very sparse but thought provoking sim. Bryn Oh’s art is on display and I have no idea whether or not it is a finished area, or there is more to come, but either way I was intrigued by it, Thora even came and checked it out with me once I sent her this pic I took. If you want to check it out, just look in Bryn Oh’s picks and teleport to the World Expo one.
Then it was off and home to take some pics, the first one being a recent release from Nyte n Day, this set is a great staple, you can either wear it as is in its forms, or add lots to it using it as a base, I really like that, and know that using the separate pieces will come in handy in the future.
I am wearing the Shirelle hair by Exile, I am so in love with this hair, it was an instant hit with me, and I ended up chatting with Kavar about it in IM, seems we both have Mums that wore the same style do back in the 60’s. I have pics somewhere of mine with big panda eye make up and platinum hair, so white that I am amazed she still has some.
Cute and vintagey are the Judy heels by Ingenue, with their solid heels and bow fronts they are perfect for many looks. I like that Ingenue has branched off into shoes, making it easier to find footwear for her style of clothing.
Second up we have the beautiful cocktail dress from Page 3, a new to me store that has an incredible range of just about everything…talk about your multi talented designer. Not only clothing and accessories but furniture too, you will also find the fabulous Nails and rings I have on in this post. The nails come with beautiful jewelry, and a hud that allows for silver or gold and different nail colours and french polishes, all very reasonably priced.
This dress has a short and longer version of the skirt, not too long though, definitely a cocktail frock this one, the style is very Audrey Hepburn but I went with a looser hairstyle, and the added Jewelry also from Page 3.
The last pic is a mish mash, combining Nyte n Day with Page 3 and a little bit of DeLa too. The latest styles from Exile are so win, I was finding it really hard to take off one to put on another, and then would fall for the new one just as hard. The collared halter dress is so cute, all I needed was a tennis racket and I would be off to the club, you can wear without the collar also if that is not your thing, and it works so well with either, the sunglasses are also from Page 3 and have many different options in a handy drop down menu, easy to use and perfect to wear.
The Yoga style set from Nyte n Day is so comfy to wear, the pants are great, I have slipped them on a few times in the past week…the top has some nice prim finishes, and layers options, and I would totally have that amazing scene hair if I was doing Yoga at the time I took these pics.
Have a great weekend everyone…..
