Look No. 493: Storm The Sorrow

Hello again my lovelies!

I have a new sponsor. The Swank event extended an invitation to me to join their blogging team and of course, I accepted. So in this post, I'll be showing you 2 exclusives from this event from {Wren's Nest} and {Letituier}. The current round of Swank will end on August 31st.

The Trunk Show (closes on September 18th) started a few days ago and Kaithleen's has a gorgeous exclusive for this event. I also have a Tres Chic (closes on September 10th) exclusive from Avenge, a new store release from Formanails and finally, Belleza has just released a new Catwa applier.

I hope you like what I have to show you. Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 471: Just Breathe

Hello again my lovelies!

In this post, I'm going to show you a couple Cosmopolitan (closes on July 16th) exclusives from Kaithleen's and Chez Moi, another Hair Fair (closes on July 16th) exclusive from Phoenix Hair, a new release from White Widow and a WoW Skins' exclusive at The Chapter Four (closes on August 1st). I hope you like what I have to show you.

The sweet little shorts and top set I'm wearing is Kaithleen's Lounge Wear. It's 100% original mesh made to fit Belleza Isis/Venus/Freya, Slink Hourglass/Physique and Maitreya Lara mesh bodies. It's available in 14 color options and a fatpack. Check it out by trying on a demo.

White Widow has a new satellite store at *PosESioN*'s new mall area and the tattoo I'm wearing is the first release for that store and it's called Wonder exclusive Blue. It's a mesh body only tattoo with appliers for Belleza, Slink, Maitreya, TMP, Adam, Eve, Sking Brazilia Doll and Omega-compatible mesh bodies. If you are using any of the Omega-compatible Bento hands, the Omega applier should work with them.

My hair is from Phoenix Hair called Clarissa Hair. There are 10 color pack options and a fatpack. As always, all the color packs (including the fatpack) comes with the VIP only Rainbow HUD for all you Phoenix Hair group members and a style HUD giving you 4 different style changes to choose from. Be sure to try on the demo.

The beautiful skin applier I'm wearing is WoW Skins' Houda LAQ/Omega Applier. It's available in 6 skin tone options: milk, tan, golden, bronze, dark tan and caffe. Each skin tone comes packed with a hud that will give you a dark brow/no brow and cleavage options. Sold separately is the Houda  LAQ Bento shape that I'm wearing. Be sure to try on the demo if you have purchased LAQ's Gaia Bento head.

My final featured item I want to show you is this amazing outdoor bed from Chez Moi called Outdoor Bed Nanai. It's available in both PG and Adult versions. The PG version has a total of 72 animations (28 male and female single poses and 44 couples in love poses) and the Adult version has a total of 130 animations (28 male and female single poses, 44 couples in love poses and 58 hot sex poses). All poses are menu controlled with SWAP functionality, adjustable and certain poses have automatic rezzing props. Total land impact is 17 (14LI for the bed and 3LI for the potted plant). If you would like to know more and/or see photos of some of the poses, please visit Chez Moi's store blog.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 468: anyBODY Goes Bi-Weekly and July's First Round Opens Today

Hello again my lovelies!

For the last year, I have had the pleasure of blogging for the anyBODY event. For the past year, anyBODY has always been a monthly event. Well, in June, the powers that be at Flair For Events has decided to make a change to the event. I'm excited to tell you that what was once was a monthly event is now a bi-weekly event. The first round of July's anyBODY opens today at 8AM SLT and will run until July 15th. The event poster below will show you all the amazing designers will be participating in the first round.

In this post, I will be highlighting anyBODY event exclusives from NY:NE and Merlific, a new store release from MODA Designs and one of Exile Hair's exclusives at Hair Fair 2017 (ends July 16th) and Egozy's exclusive for July's LeLutka Powder Pack that was just released.

The beautiful red dress I'm wearing is from NY:NE and it's called Lace Up Dress. This is a fitted mesh dress made to fit Belleza Isis/Venus/Freya, Slink Hourglass/Physique and Maitreya Lara mesh bodies.

As you can see in the photo above, there are several HUD options to choose from: Aqua to Blue, Green to Olive, Hipster, Pink to Purple, White to Black and Yellow to Red. Now since I get a bloggers pack, I don't know if the harness and chain I'm wearing comes in each pack but if not, they can be purchased separately should you choose.

The amazing boots I'm wearing is an original mesh creation from MODA Designs called Alana Thigh High Boots. These boots are made to fit Belleza Isis/Venus/Freya, Slink Hourglass/Physique, Maitreya Lara and Sking Katena bodies/feet. Now in the photo above, you are seeing a clear body and color body versions. These are not two different boot versions. The amazing color/texture HUD that comes packed with the boots allows you to change the body to a clear version.

The big news of the month is the opening of one of Second Life's biggest event...Hair Fair 2017 (closes July 16th). My hair is one of Exile Hair's exclusive at this awesome event called Bad At Love. There are 10 color pack options and a fatpack; each comes with 4 versions: regular size mesh, large mesh, regular size Bento and large Bento. The Bento versions moves as if being blown by summer's soft, warm breeze.

As a side note, one of the great things about Hair Fair is that a portion of all sales goes to the Wigs for Kids charity. For over 3 decades, Wigs for Kids has been providing Hair Replacement Systems and support for children who have lost their hair due to chemotherapy, radiation therapy, Alopecia, Trichotillomania, burns and other medical issues at no cost. So I hope you will go and buy even just one color pack because every penny counts.

The super cool nails I'm wearing is from Merlific called Dona Square Nails. These nails will work with Slink, Vista and Maitreya Bento Hands. When you go to Merlific's booth at the anyBODY event (closes July 15th), you'll notice a large board and below it will be several smaller boards each showing a different color/texture HUDS you can purchase to give your nails all sorts of different looks. You have to purchase the nails (the big board) and then purchase whatever HUDs (the smaller boards) you want. Of course when you buy the nails they come with their own color/texture HUD; which in itself is pretty nice.

The final item that I'm featuring in this post is the skin applier that I'm wearing from Egozy called Alessia. It's an applier specifically for LeLutka heads that was an exclusive at the recently released Powder Pack for LeLutka. It comes packed with 6 skin tone options (porcelain, pale, light fair, fair, tan and golden), body appliers (Belleza, Slink, Maitreya and Omega-compatible) and 6 lipstick options. With each head applier, you'll get a choice of 4 brow options that includes a no-brow option. If you want this skin applier, you'll have to go to Powder Pack's inworld headquarters and purchase the LeLutka's box for July.

I hope you like what I have to show you. Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 461: Retro Glamour

Hello again my lovelies!

InspirationSL opened their Betty Boop Summer yesterday and I have a very glamourous vintage swimsuit from irrISIStible. I also have two hunt items from the Women Only Hunt 3 (ends on June 24th) from Secrets and {T'Ink}. The poolside/beachside furniture I'm using is from Chez Moi. My nail and toe appliers is and exclusive at The Vintage Fair (closes on June 25th) from Dark Passions-Koffin Nails. Finally, the shape I'm using in this post is Denver's Shapes' exclusive at eBento - The Event (closes on July 7th).

The vintage-style swimsuit I'm wearing is from irrISIStible and it's called Retro Bathsuit Outfit. It's a complete outfit that includes the one-piece swimsuit, mules, hat, sunglasses, hoop earrings (I'm not wearing them in this post) and the bag (it's leaning against the lounger in my photos above). The swimsuit is fitted mesh made to fit Belleza Isis/Venus/Freya, Slink Hourglass/Physique and Maitreya Lara mesh bodies. The mules are unrigged that are made to fit all bodies. The hat is resizable so you can manipulate it to fit over your hair and the bag comes in 2 versions: with animation and without. There is a 3 color HUD that will allow you to change the colors of each of the items in this set with the exception of the earrings and sunglasses If you want this outfit, just hit InspirationSL before it closes on September 1st.

The tattoo that you see on my upper arms is from {T'Ink} called Summer Treats. It's a hunt item at the Women Only Hunt 3 (WOH3) (ends on June 24th). It comes packed with Omega and TMP appliers and tattoo layers for classic bodies.

The poolside/beachside furniture you see in my photos above is from Chez Moi called Vintage Lounger. It was an exclusive at the round of Cosmopolitan that just closed today. But don't worry if you missed this round, Chez Moi will be selling this item at the main store and on Marketplace. It's available in both PG and Adult versions. The PG version has 70 animations (30 male/female single and 40 for couples in love) and the Adult has 126 animations (30 male/female single, 40 for couples in love and 56 hot sex) that are all menu controlled, adjustable and have the SWAP functionality. Some of the animations have automatic rezzing props when chosen. With what I have set up, the land impact is 16 (4 LI for the lounger, 1 LI for the table, 5 LI for the umbrella, 2 for the lemonade jar, 2 for the lemon glass and 2 for the lemon bowl). This whole set is 100% original mesh.

The jewelry set I'm using in this post is another Women Only Hunt 3 (WOH3) item from Secrets. It's called Pineapple Set. It is only available in gold and is resizable.

The nail/toe applier I'm using is from Dark Passions-Koffin Nails called Totally Tight Tips. This is an exclusive at The Vintage Fair that runs until June 25th. This applier will work with Slink, Maitreya and Omega-compatible mesh and Bento hands.

My final featured item is the shape I'm using from Denver's Shapes called Karen Shape. This shape is made specifically for LeLutka's Bento heads. The shape is copy/modify; however, I want to let you know that I DID NOT modify the face/head in anyway so you can see what it looks like in its original form; I did modify the body to my preferred slider numbers. It can be used with any body you choose. If you are horrible at creating shapes like I am and want to pick this up, head over to the eBento event before July 7th.

I hope you like what I have to show you. Until next time...happy shopping!
