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.

Breathe in and HOLD
Purple Punishment week is almost over, but as I said before I am having too much fun. I still don’t think I will go to one purple as a first choice ever, but I don’t think I will entirely rule it out, and I love how the other ones look. Today somehow ended up being a corset post, I love corsets, in all of their styles, I especially love them when the designer makes them on all options, so that they work with everything, as was the case with these ones today.
With the Addict corsets in the first pic, it is lucky that Kianna did them on every layer including pants, so that I would be able to wear it over underpants layered jeans, and still wear the fabulous new no collar leather jacket by Aoharu, or if I had opted for a cardigan or shrug on the jacket layer. Layers really enhance the experience on how you can get the most out of your wardrobe.
The skinny jeans and frayed come on both pants and underpants layers, so this makes them fun and versatile too. I could have kept layering and mixing and matching these four pieces all day. The second pic veered away from the purple, but again showed the beauty of layer options. Wearing a cropped top on the jacket layer, over a corset on the pants and shirt layer, over a mini skirt on the underpants layer. Eclectic Apparel, Dark Eden and Urbanity all having layers for everything made that so possible. With the large expanse of skin in this look, you may be fooled into thinking not necessary, but the trim on the corset is actually on the underpants layer.
What is fun, is that the corset by Eclectic Apparel is in fact a full breast covering corset, but with the cropped shirt over the top, it looks like an underbust cinch belt style one instead. Whimsy and I took a trip to Xplosion, haven’t been since way back, and wow have they grown in leaps and bounds. Mind you the store was huge already, but I couldn’t resist the cute tank girl stockings, which don’t cover the feet, so I wonder if they are stockings at all, maybe calf coverings ? I don’t know, but they are hot.
Addict has been updating a storm lately, the doubs gloves are another of their great new releases, with either gold or silver buttons they can be fun and funky, or a little more stylised depending on look. I pulled out the older sculpted Anklets by Maitreya, I have not worn these in ages, and mentioned them to Newdoll the other day, and decided I needed to show them some love today.
A Bargain today is the Fawn hair in the last pic by Adam n Eve, this hair is great and it allowed me to get my Cher on. It is part of the 69L humpday promotion, so don’t miss out on the savings there. Other Adam n Eve items are the C ‘mere shoes I have so much fun with, as well as the leather pants which are just beautifully made. Dreams has released a new set of corsets as well this week, with houndstooth as shown as well as ribbed and animal prints.
I also have on one of the latest collars, neko style with adorable diamond paw print dangle. It comes with bling or no bling options, and has a colour change menu. Lots of fun and the cute Cat box that some of the neko items are packed in is awesome.
I love my Ife skins by LeLutka, but today went with the first love on that line Estella, with the beauty marks that are just so lovely. Great hair bases too, with light and dark options.
All my poses today were created by Miseria, I cannot wait until she produces more poses to play with, hopefully she is in the pose fair coming up on the 2nd of April , not sure though, will have to wait to see.

Grape Jelly on your belly
So I slept for like 16 hours, logging in at the end of everyones day is so weird, but I also guess so aussie too. I am having way too much fun with this so called punishment. I might even end up wearing purple a lot more often in posts if it comes in packs that way.
I wonder why you have to have full bright on to get a tint to tint properly, I mean what Linden worked out that that was the only way it would work, and night time be damned. Nothing sillier I am afraid than turning night to night for a romantic dance at some beautiful location, and seeing people hair on full bright.
Half the time it isn’t even because it is tinted, it is just because the creator thinks it looks better…no joke I had a 10×10 sign up at Aleri’s platform in the old days saying “Turn off Full Bright ” it took me over a year to convince her, and habit was habit – I miss Aleri , hopefully her new college courses will lead to bigger and better things.
The Mel shirt was so popular at Berries Inc. that Summse decided to make it into a dress also, with a great side stud belt in light and dark. She is up to amazing things at her new location, and I have been privileged to see some really lovely hair she has been working on, and for first hair, look out she is really talented.
The hair I am wearing now is Exile, and the hair Kavar is doing lately is killer hot, I tinted the first style purple, and it came up fabulous with his new textures…yay for Mod.
I am all up in these wide leg shorts by Eclectic Apparel, how neato are they, the plaid the gaucho leg prims, all win. High enough fit for the conservatives, and still low enough for the not so much. Grandma’s Cardigan is also hotness, if grandma was getting around showing off that much tummy, she would be a rager…I am sure it would be worn over a blouse or something, but lucky us, we get to wear a bit raunchier.
Running around in Natalie by Fishy Strawberry again tonight, I actually went shopping in my lingerie by Opium, yay for Alaska making stuff again. If you haven’t grabbed demos of the Natalie skin, be sure to do so and see how it works for you, as I said before, even with sad face lips, I am really loving how it works on my shape, and the body is divine.

blog – Ta Daaaaa
I have this obsession, it is known as Ninja. It has had such an impact on my life in the last year or so. Yes it is a website that lets me see shows that are not yet in Australia and I love it.
One such show of course is Glee, only just started down here, and yet I have already seen the season on Ninja. I have laughed, I have gasped and I have bawled like a baby over that show…not only are the cast incredibly talented musically but they sure as hell picked a bunch of truly wonderful actors that can really pull at the old heart strings.
So the other day when I was tping around, I saw this fab t-shirt and just had to show my Glee love, it is the perfect backdrop show for a bunch of society labeled “losers” and that they all come good, and are shown to have so much to bring to the table, it makes me very happy indeed.
The boots I have on are the Armarda boots by Kookie, the three colours available are a splendid mix, and with or without socks option works well, because you never know what mood you will be in ahead of time. The leather texture on these is just that right side of worn looking, and I really like the mid calf length of them.
The recent hair release from Fri.day had me joyously happy, with the hat/hair combos of YUM. Not only is there the fedora look hat/hairs , but also the loose knit cap look, all three are just perfect, and Fri.day came to the party bringing out a set of Fedora poses as well.
Have you been to Whippet & Buck lately? if not you should go, and when you are feeling a bit bleh, it is so much fun trying on all the demos of the clothes, not just for quality assurance, but just because it could open up your eyes to something you wouldn’t normally see yourself in, and you can pre plan a look, mixing and matching with other items.
Everytime I visit, even though I know exactly what I am getting, I cannot help it, I have to try them on, because I think if they went through that much trouble, I’m doing it.
Speaking of Designers who go above and beyond. I was trying to piece together my last look, and came across the fabulous Magician Vests in my inventory, I was sold on their hand drawn lovelyness…but the colours were not going to work with what I wanted to do. I Growled and Grumbled in Eclectic’s IM box, and moments – seriously moments – later I had a new colours folder of the Magicians Vest, which she has put out for sale in her store at a special price.
The vest is just perfect, and comes on all layers, so you can mix and match to your hearts content. Vests are such a classic, and when done in this style they become a perfect staple for your wardrobe, and these new colours give them a definite vintage op shop look, having you ready for a day out doing the markets and galleries with friends or solo, to finish off at your favourite cafe.
Alice is a GLOW skin by LAQ, Alice just like all GLOW skins have a youthful essence to them, that not only works for casual and sporty, but merges into girl next door turned bombshell without much effort at all. Today I went with the more out and about looks, I think after the Tasha 2 pics I needed to show LAQ in a different light lol.
I am wearing the new PM Sculpted nails…these have pretinted bases for many skins you may like,I was wearing the LAQ Nougat gloves and I was set.
The nails come in sizes from 10-50 and the hud gives you lots of colours and french manicure options.
