Look No. 232: Some Days I Stay In My Pajamas All Day

Always wear cute pajamas

You'll never know who you'll meet in your dreams.

~ Unknown ~

Hello again my lovelies!

I don't know about you but I love my pajamas; and yes, if I can wear them all day, I will. I especially love them on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Pajamas just seem appropriate for the Holidays. The best kind of pj's are the footie pajamas, or better known as the onesie. So today, I'm going to show you some awesome pajamas that I'piteme just released and what's cool is, these are available for men too.

The name of these pajama's I'm wearing is called the Ladies Cozy Onesie Pajamas (the one for the men is called the Mens Cozy Onesie Pajamas).

These are fitted mesh and come packed with 5 standard fitted mesh sizes plus sizes for Belleza, Maitreya and Slink Physique. For the men, it's 100% mesh and come in 5 standard mesh sizes. 

Since all our bodies are different shapes and sizes, I highly recommend trying on the free demo prior to purchase to make sure you get  good fit that you're happy with.

Both the men's and ladies onsie comes packed with this 10-color HUD. The only difference between the men's and ladies is the men get a yellow color in place of the pink. Other than that, the rest of the colors are the same.

In this post, I'm wearing eyes from Ikon's Sovereign Eyes collection. The color I'm wearing is called Starfall.

When you purchase a set of the Sovereign Eyes you'll get a total of 5 iris sizes in both system and mesh eyes. You'll also get a HUD for the mesh eyes that will allow you to change the iris size and add effects like glow, brightness and flip (changing the eye whites from light to dark).

There are a total of 49 beautiful colors to choose from...and believe me, you'll have a difficult time deciding on just one color. There is also a free set of eyes you can grab to see if these are the eyes for you.




Please be sure to check out both I'piteme and Ikon both inworld and on Marketplace. If you have space in your groups, please consider joining their VIP groups to take advantage of group gifts and to be the first to know of all new releases.

Until next time...happy shopping and happy holidays!

Look No. 223: It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

Christmas waves a magic wand over the world, and behold,

Everything is softer and more beautiful.

~ Norman Vincent Peake ~

Hello again my lovelies!

It sure is beginning to look and feel like Christmas in Second Life and it got me in the mood to do a little holiday decorating myself.

I agree with Norman Vincent Peake that Christmas does make everything look softer and more beautiful and that is so evident at Calas Galadhon's White Christmas sim. It truly is a beautiful and magical winter wonderland where you can enjoy a sleigh ride that takes you around the beautiful landscaped sim littered with tall, snow-covered trees and tall, snowy, rocky tops; you'll even see some wildlife here and there. By the Pavillion, there's a large pond where you can show off your skating skills alone or as a couple. You can even take a balloon ride to the North Pole! If you would like to see more photographs, please check out Jeff Goodnight's blog, Goodnight Photography. His photographs are simply stunning.

In today's post, I'm going to show you some new releases by I'piteme, a cropped sweater, a pair of jeans, and a really awesome Christmas tree.

The cropped, argyle sweater I'm wearing is 100% mesh. It comes packed with 5 standard mesh sizes. This sweater should be compatible with most mesh bodies but I highly recommend picking up the free demo to try on prior to purchasing it.

The sweater also comes packed with this color/pattern HUD giving you a choice of 10 argyle colors.

The jeans are called Lynda Lee Jeans. They are 100% fit mesh and comes packed with 5 standard fit mesh sizes. They also come packed with fit mesh sizes for Maitreya Lara, TMP, Slink Physique/Hourglass, and Belleza Isis/Venus/Freya.

Have you ever put on a pair of jeans, that you just bought, and discover that your ankles are showing through on the back side of the pant leg? I hate that. That won't happen with these jeans. In fact, the jeans are designed to work with both mid and high feet with shoes on. I'm wearing these with ankle boots...see, no protruding ankle problem.

The color/texture/pattern HUD is amazing. It gives you 14 color choices for the jeans, belt loops and back pockets. You can also change the look of the belt and the belt buckle.

Toy Wiskee, designer and owner owner of I'piteme, will every now and then release very cool, non-clothing items. Last Christmas she came out with the Christmas Fireplace you see in the very first photograph above (minus the giant wreath above it). This year, it's this amazing Christmas tree. It comes with the presents underneath, the teddy bear, the rocking horse and train with train tracks. FYI, touch the train and it will circle the tree (touch it again to stop it). Also, please make note that the presents are copyable so you can add a few extra gifts, like I did, if you choose. Everything you see in this picture is approximately 15 prims total.

In this post, I am wearing a set of eyes from Ikon's Odyssey Eyes collection. The color I'm wearing is called, Moor.

There are 49 gorgeous colors to choose from. Each set of eyes comes with 5 iris sizes for both system and mesh eyes. The mesh eyes comes with a HUD that is used to change the iris size and position them correctly. The HUD will also allow you to add some really cool effects like glow, full bright and flip. I recommend picking up the free demo so you can check out the eyes and the HUD to see how it works.






Please do check out I'piteme and Ikon at their inworld stores. Also, if you have room, be sure to join their VIP groups so you can stay informed if/when group gifts or special group pricing is offered  and of all new releases and events they maybe participating in.

Until next time...happy shopping and happy holidays!

Look No. 216: I'm Feeling The Pink Today

Pink as the bing on your cherry

Pink 'cause you are so very

Pink it's the color of passion

'Cause today it just goes with the fashion

~ Aerosmith ~

Hello again my lovelies!

Okay, okay...it's not the pink that you're thinking but it's in the family which is close enough for me.

Today I'm wearing a few new releases from a store called McButtkinz that is owned by Asheranna who is a friend of mine. I haven't blogged an outfit of hers for more than a year but that's mainly because she doesn't release clothing very often. So when she does, I jump at the chance to blog it because I love her clothing. 

The other thing I jump at the chance to wear is hair color that's not the norm; hence, why I'm wearing the pink hair today. I've never been one to stick with a single color. I can't! I get too bored after 2-3 weeks of just blonde or just red or just black. I need variety. Those of you who are like me, will understand the need to constantly be changing.

The outfit I'm wearing is three pieces that are all sold separately: the pencil skirt, the long sleeve crop top, and the chained heels. Each item has a variety of colors/patterns to choose from that will give you options to mix and match.

The skirt and top are 100 percent fitmesh that comes in 5 standard fitmesh sizes plus has sizes for Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza mesh bodies.

The chained heels are made to fit Slink High Feet only so be sure you either already own the feet or head over to Slink's main store and purchase them before or after you buy these shoes.

If you like great quality clothing that's easy on your wallet, these three pieces by McButtkinz is the way to go. You can pick up a top, skirt and heels all at a cost of 250 Lindens.

Since I chose to wear shades of pink today, I decided to pull out my set of pink eyes from Ikon's Triumph Eyes collection. This particular color is called, Kawaii.

Each set of Triumph Eyes comes with 5 iris sizes in both system and mesh eyes. It also comes with a HUD for the mesh eyes where you can change the iris size and add cool effects like glow, bright and flip.

There are a total of 42 beautiful eye colors to choose from and there's even a free demo you can grab to try on to see if these eyes are made for you.

Finally, all the poses I'm using in this post are a few of the poses from PosESioN's new release called the Selena Set. This is PosESioN's exclusive at the December round of Inspiration SL that starts December 1st and runs till the 15th. So if you like any of these poses, be sure to check out the rest of the poses while you are there.

Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 170: A Moment Standing Still Forever

"Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn"

~ Orson Welles ~

Hello again! today I'm back with a new mesh dress from Blasphemic and shoes and jewelry set from MODA Designs.

The black, tank-style dress from Blasphemic is called Lexa. It comes packaged with (I hope your sitting down) 13 sizes! Yes, 13 sizes (5 fitmesh, 5 regular mesh and 1 Belleza, 1 Slink and 1 Maitreya).

It is available in 5 other beautiful colors (see photo below): red, purple, green, gothica (a dark mauve) and blue. Each are sold separately. There is a demo available (demo is free) so please try it on to ensure a perfect fit. It is available for purchase at Blasphemic's main and Marketplace stores.

The fabulous heels are a new release by MODA Designs called Nadia Platform Heels & HUD.

If you purchase these shoes, it comes packed with MODA's amazing trademark color/texture HUD that has 30 MODA custom colors and 6 textures for the platform/heel, the body and sole/insole. The HUD also give you 4 metal choices for the chains, the zipper and studs on the shoes. This gives you unlimited mixing and matching of colors and textures.

There are 3 versions of this shoe: the high (what i'm wearing in this post), the mid and the low. The mid and low are pictured below along with the HUD. You can buy each version separately (399 Lindens each) or as a fatpack (1097 Lindens) giving you all three versions. These shoes will fit Slink High, TMP Ouch and Maitreya feet systems (feet systems are sold separately). Please be sure to try on the demo (demo costs 1 Linden) prior to purchase to ensure  you are pleased with how it fits. These shoes are being sold at both MODA's main and Marketplace store.

The necklace, earrings and bracelets that I'm wearing is also a new release by MODA. It's called Luce Del Sole and it is sold as a full set.

When you purchase this gorgeous jewelry set, here is what you will get: 1 necklace, 1 pair of earrings, 2 rings (one for each hand) and 2 bracelets (one for each wrist). Plus, this also comes with MODA's awesome trademark HUD, as shown below, where you can mix and match colors and textures to you heart's content. You can pick this jewelry set up at both MODA's main and Marketplace stores.

Finally, I did make it to the current round of We <3 Roleplay on their new sim and I love it. It seems much easier to get around and stores are much easier to find as they hand you not only an landmark for their new location but also a map that is  easy to follow once you get your bearings as to where you are and which way you are facing at the landing point. The hair that I'm wearing is an exclusive at the event by Red Mint (Hair No. 43'15) and I absolutely love it. It does comes with the horns which is what caught my attention as I am a collector of horns. The hair is available in regular and fantasy colors. Please be sure to check out We <3 Roleplay before the next round begins.

Until next time...happy shopping!
