No boys allowed!

It was a hard-fought fight but we were able to keep the icky boys out of our fort. They never heed our “NO BOYS ALLOWED” sign so today they paid the price.

Over at GEN-Neutral Katat0nik has some great leg bandanas that both boys and girls can wear. With your purchase you receive 2 bandanas, for the left and right legs, and a hud with 18 colours to play with. Since the bandanas are modifiable, I made copies (always make a copy of the original) and resized one and moved it to my arm and moved the other to my leg so I’m wearing 2 on the same leg.

New sit poses at Imeka

Out now for Mix over at Imeka is a new sit pose pack. The Sits 04 pack includes 6 static sit poses. Imeka makes some of the best sit poses on the grid; I know I use them a lot when looking for sit poses.

My cute new blouse is also a Mix item from Tres Blah. It comes in several colours/patterns.

Punk is at Collab88

Punk is this month’s theme at Collab88 which warms my heart. I grew up during the original punk time of the ’70s and have always had a love for the style.

Katatonik designed very cool Bow Wrist Straps that fit both the default av and mesh bodies. These original mesh straps come in 9 colours and can be resized. All colours have a left and right version and the whole pack is only 88L.

Take a look at my funky nails. They come from the brilliant hands of Nylon Pinkney of Nylon Outfitters. The Punk Nails Collection is available for both SLink and Maitreya.

Ivy Graves of Atomic has opened a new brand called Noir for more of a darker side of clothing and one of her first designs is the cute plaid dress I’m wearing. It comes with a hud giving you 2 skirt colours and 6 top textures.

One of my favourite shoe shops, Fri.day, has new punkish boots out that come in several colours. I always look forward to seeing what they have at Collab88.

And fast becoming a favourite jewelry shop is Yummy. I love Polyester’s funky designs and the safety pins brings back memories of old-time 70’s punks. you don’t see a lot of them today. 😉 The spiked collar with lock is brilliant as well.

Life’s a morgue…

Have you been to the Pose Fair yet? Don’t worry, you still have about another week to get over there and pickup some great poses from stores like Juxtapose. They have several pose set exclusives for the fair and I shot the 3 photos below using 1 pose from 3 different sets.

This first pose is from the Broken Grace pose set which includes 5 static poses.

Second comes Liquid Courage, another pose set of 5 poses and includes a cocktail.

Lastly is the Velour Dream pose pack of 5 poses.

In all my photos I’m wearing the pretty Burkhart Dress and Burkhart Boots from Paper Moon. Both the dress and boots come with a hud which gives you 8 colour options.

family reunion…

Ivey Deschanel of Snatch just released the cute Mamrie Dress. This a-line shape dress has a delicate flower pattern, no sleeves and a lace collar. With most of Snatch’s mesh items, you purchase by size so you do have to demo the dress for the correct size. When you buy the size, I chose small, you receive the dress in 6 or 7 colours. I’m wearing the black but there are some bright, fun colours too. The adorable mini also works well as a top over leggings, capris, jeans, etc. I’m wearing my dress over net leggings by Schadenfreude and my fantastic shoes are from Random Matter.

The space of geekdom…

Don’t ask me what the title means, the words just came to me all of a sudden and my fingers typed them. 😉

Lassitude & Ennui has two great sets of footwear inspired by sci-fi/cyberpunk at the Geek ‘n’ Nerds fair. The mules are made from a gorgeous soft leather in 4 colours, each with silver and gold heels. As you can see the nanobots have been nibbling at them. These shoes are made for SLink high feet and are 280L each. My adorable R2 dress and superhero tights are from the fair as well.

My fantastic boots come in 6 colours and I’m ready for some heavy-duty stomping. Not only do these books go well with your cypberpunk looks but they’d look great with space outfits. These too are 280L and like the mules, are 100% original mesh. The mask I’m wearing and this great nail bat come from Genre this month.

Hopscotch is also taking part in the Geek ‘n’ Nerds fair with various items. My favourites are the library cabinet and the book houses. The Library Catalog Cabinets come in Silver Birch & silver and Dark Cherry & gold. ‘Share a book’ are little houses sitting on a pole that can be placed inside or outside and allows the sharing of books. It comes in 4 colours (sold separately) and on touch the door opens. There’s also two frames with quotes from Dr. Who, “listen” and “do as you’re told”.

The Boho look…

The Boho Culture fair is underway and I have to admit I love this look. I am a 70’s child and have always loved 70’s fashion, even disco at the end. 🙂

Rain Laval of Juxtapose has designed a really cute necklace that is perfect for the boho look (I’m wearing the necklace in all the photos). The Free Spirit Necklace comes in 8 pretty colours. It’s wrapped several times with the ends coming through a silver hoop and decorated with coloured beads. Her other exclusive is a pose set with a wearable mesh flower stem with the poses built into it (3 of the 5 poses shown below).

PeachieMuah of Fresh Face has this adorable skin out as her fair exclusive. Dahlia is in the snow skin tone and has a cleavage and non-cleavage versions. As you can see on left, the skin is soo cute and on right I added lipstick and freckles and if it’s possible, I look even cuter. LOL

I’m in love with my outfit which is the exclusive from Sassy! Both the top and skirt totally remind me of something I use to wear when I was a young teen back in the day. It’s was so comfortable and I wore it to death in summer. The outfit comes in several colours.

Don’t you just love this hair? As soon as I saw it, I knew it had to be mine. It is Suicide Gurls’ Boho fair exclusive called Dahlia (cool, another Dahlia) and as you can see I chose the reds. I love the messy curl look and of course I look cute in it. 😉

I see fire…

I finally made it into port and decided my crew needed a little downtime and I needed to do some boot shopping. Over at We Love Roleplay, Lassitude & Ennui have some beautiful boots that will make me the envy of every pirate. The Buccaneer Boots are 100% original mesh and come in both unrigged mesh (with a resizer) and fitted mesh. There are 8 colours to choose from and each colour comes with a hud allowing you to change the lace colours and the upper flap from leather to suede. Best yet, event price is only 180L for each colour and after the event they will be priced at 280L.

Personally, I consider Jackal Ennui to be one of SL’s finest fantasy designers. She has an excellent eye for detail and her taste is exquisite.

Serpentine and black it stands before my eyes…

I am wearing the cutest flats by Cyclic Gearz of LVLE. For this round of Oneword, Cyclic designed the adorable Georgie slingback flats that has a jewel in the shape of a kitty face. The shoes come in 5 colours and are compatible with SLink feet and are a steal at 295L each.

The current round of Uber has an apocalypse theme, which is one of my favourites. Hart Larsson of PXL’s exclusive is the beautiful Mia Apocalypse skin, in the pale and natural tones. There are 4 makeups available for purchase in each tone with a host of goodies for each, such as 3 lips layers, freckle layers, mole layers, 8 eyebrow layers and cleavage layers. In the photo below, on the left is the pale tone in makeup 4 with freckles, moles, and pink eyebrows. On the right is the natural tone in makeup 1 with lip colour 1 and moles. What a beautiful face!

Uber has some fantastic items available and I’m wearing some of my favs. I love the layered shorts and knee pads from COCO and I’m hoping maybe she’ll do up some matching elbow pads to go with the kneepads??? 😉 Maxi Gossamer’s jewelry is great and will also work well with the goth genre. And look at these boots from Deadwool… they are super awesome!!

Twin Princesses

Berelain and Faile are twin princesses nobody in the kingdom has trouble telling apart. While Berelain is sweet with a sunny disposition and very girly, Faile it seems is always moody and a total gothhead. Be that as it may, they are both princesses and have different styles, thus keeping the realm’s fashion industry on its toes to outfit both of them.

This month’s theme for Fit for a Princess is the modern princess and PANTSU*HUNTER has released a very pretty dress that comes in 4 colours to choose from – 3 pastels and one darker colour. This sleeveless mini comes in the standard mesh sizes and is a perfect summery dress.

Caelan Hancroft, owner of Cae, has impeccable taste and has designed a very modern take on the princess jewelry set. This gorgeous set is a big bow filled with precious stones and comes with a necklace, earrings, rings and a tiara. A hud is used to resize each item, change the stone colours and metal colourings (2 metal colours and 10 jewel colours).
