SSD (Sax Shepherd Designs) gacha at  the Fantasy Gacha Carnival which opens on May 2nd  - please see this post for more details.

#215 I thought you were waiting for me.....

George, how could you??  I have had your pic on my mirror for so long, and now it is broken, just like my heart.  I would have been such a good Mrs Clooney, I even love pigs!

I absolutely love Luana Dawg of Kuro's work (both poses and furniture) and had great fun playing with this pose and prop set which is available at The Pose Fair 2014. It comes complete with the mesh mirror into which you can add your pic of choice.

#214 Zsa walks (and hangs off) the line

Today I am showing you a few poses from a set I really had fun with, from Infiniti at the Pose Fair 2014.  The weathered mesh tightrope (7 LI) comes with 15 menu driven poses - I managed to limit myself to showing you just a few (but there are a few more on flickr) or this post would have taken a year! 

To make it even better, the pack includes a box containing just the poses as well, so if you want to use them for other purposes, you can!  The poses are specially made to work with SLink medium feet, which is also a great touch.

My shorts are part of a new outfit from [ SAKIDE ] which also comes with a top and shoes, and in a 7 colours and is at the Monochromatic Fair until 5 May

#213 Fairy Tale Tease

I didnt think I would ever find a shoe I love more than the !!! SSD (Sax Shepherd Designs) Mata Hari for high SLinks, but Sax has done it again, and produced an incredibly beautiful shoe that really enhances the shape of the SLink high feet.  I find that the majority of shoes for SLink HIGH feet just don't look right to me, but Sax has some magic formula, thankfully!.  

These gorgeous shoes can be won for just 50L a time at the !!! SSD (Sax Shepherd Designs) gacha at  the Fantasy Gacha Carnival which opens on May 2nd (I will add an url when it opens).  There are 18 different colours which are commons, and just one rare, which is the anklet I am wearing on the right - obviously you can wear it on either/both but I wanted to show the shoe both with and without.  The hud which comes with each pair of shoes allows you a choice of 22 jewel colours (you can change both main and alt jewels separately so really can customise to your heart's content) and 5 metals = and if you have the anklet that changes too.

Obviously the combos are endless, so I am just showing a few possibilities below using different colour shoes and different metal and jewel options from the hud.

Oh, the fabulous jewellery set, also by !!! SSD (Sax Shepherd Designs), is not a new release but is texture change too.

#212 Oh Joy!

I am very happy to show some poses from the relatively new store, Glitterburps, owned by the lovely and very talented Gwin LeShelle.  This pose set is currently available at Pose Fair 2014. and just like Gwin herself, they are incredibly sweet and fun!  

I don't really do cute, but I picked up an outfit at Kustom9 which I think is pretty cute, and then had fun with these wonderfully lively and expressive poses :).

#211 They fly so high............

I love finding new designers, and Infiniti poses are one of my discoveries at the Pose Fair 2014.  I really enjoyed using their Blowing Bubbles set, one of their Pose Fair exclusives.  It is a set of 5 poses contained within a wearable bubble blower with bubbles attachment.

What I particularly like is that Brandi Monroe has pretty much thought of everything you could possibly need to make this set work for you.  Included in the box are extra rezzable bubbles, instructions on how to edit linked parts in case you want to move individual bubbles around, and a box of the pose files not scripted into props in case you want to use them for other purposes. Oh, and the wand is colour changeable too, again using edit link.

In the close up I have added extra bubbles (some resized), in the collage I have just used the bubbles that come with the prop as rezzed.  There are more close ups on my flickr link.

My dress is the latest group gift from Hudson's, and as always, Candace Hudson has done an amazing job - I wore this outfit out yesterday afternoon, and I lost count of the comments I got on the dress.  It comes with an eatable chocolate bunny and easter egg, but I ate them before I took the pics, sorry :).

#210 Brooklyn, Daytona or Peyton, that is the question

Brooklyn

This is  my first ever pose fair, as I was not blogging at the time of previous fairs and had no interest whatsoever in poses, whereas now I think I am a little obsessed :).

First I just have to mention the build - it is fantastic, not only to look at, but also so easy to move round and follow so that you don't miss anything.  Be sure to read the notecard you will receive when you tp in and follow the instructions with regard to settings, it makes a huge difference.

Onto the poses - these are just some of the Hopscotch items at the fair - I was going to show just one set but couldn't choose (I am a Libran, making me choose is cruel), as they are all fab, and I am sure I will use these poses again and again.

Daytona

Peyton

My outfit is an unusual one for me as I rarely wear coats in sl - I mean, I don't really get cold, so can't really see the point.  However, I really love this one from Ducknipple which comes with a texture change hud giving 12 colour options for the vest and coat trim.  I have worn it with some new pants from Lapointe & Bastchild which again come with a texture change hud, giving 15 different black and white textures and choice of silver or bronze zipper.

My hair from Argrace can be worn with or without the pony, and has a texture change hud for the ribbon.

Midnight Yoga

Zsa has been moving into a new house and was feeling a bit stressed last night as she has so much to do, so I reminded her of the yoga mat she hasn't used for a while.  Although it was after midnight, she dragged it out onto the shore and spent some time stretching and communing with the moon.  She didn't even bother to get changed,, she just wore one of her favourite outfits for when she is just slobbing around at home.

The yoga mat from KaTinK comes with 8 different animations, the rocks are included, and the mat itself is tintable

Byzantine

It has been a slow blogging week for me as I have been really busy both irl and sl.  I have a few blog posts in the works, I just need to put them together.

Anyway, the gorgeous necklace I am wearing today is from [LNS Designs], and is available in their store or on mp in five colours: absinthe (green, worn here), peridot (lighter green), heliotrope (purple), azure (teal) and sky (blue) for just 97L each.  The matching earrings are the [LNS Designs] 25 for 25 hunt item, and after the hunt will be on sale for 74L a pair.

The shoes are my favourite ever shoes for SLink high feet, from Sax Shepherd Designs.  I never get tired of these!

More Rock Attitude Fashion Fair goodies and boots to drool over

This is another post featuring a couple of items from the Rock Attitude Fashion Fair, plus some newness from a few other stores.  I apologise, picture heavy and blah blah heavy, but I have so much to share and can't just post pics and not tell you of the fabulousness behind them!

The full release of Ria is now out at Belleza , and I think she is my favourite Belleza skin so far - ok, I say that about all of them, but she really is a beauty.  My hair is from a new-to-me designer, Runaway, and is available at the  Rock Attitude Fashion Fair. They have a few styles out and I am really impressed by them all but particularly the one I am showing here, both the cut and the texturing - it is my first duo texture and I seriously love it :).  The pack I am wearing in the main photo and first colllage is the fat pack and comes with a hud giving you the choice of 24 main colours which you can have as solids, or add one of the 6 duo colour options.  The other collage shows a few from the ombre fatpack which gives you a choice of 8 main colours and 6 duo colour additions.  So with either pack, a ton of options.

My outfit is this week's Woeful Wednesday goodie from Sn@tch - you get the sweater in 5 sizes, and the leggings in 8 colours in the size of your choice.  The scorpion necklace, again from the RAFF, comes in 4 options - with or without the barb wire, and with tail up, or not.

And finally the boots - drool.  I was gutted a few weeks ago to find that my favourite sculpty studded and laced boots no longer rezz properly and have been looking ever since for a replacement, and yay, I finally found them!  These original mesh boots are simply gorgeous - apparently it took the designer 3 months to make them, and all I can say is that it shows.  It isn't just the incredible attention to detail, it is also the amount of customisation the hud allows you to make to those small details - you have multiple choices for the bits, laces, trim, body and logo on the sole.  That the designer took the time to perfect the little things like that speaks volumes about the quality.  I think I am going to superglue these to my pixel feet, I love them so much!

LaNoir Soleil plus more from the Rock Attitude Fashion Fair

I love finding new shops, and the dress I am wearing here is from a new-to-me shop, [LNS Designs].  It is absolutely beautifully made original mesh, the layering and graduation in tone in each colour is just perfect. You can buy one of 9 colours including a matching seriously cute metal clutch, for just $97, or the fat pack for $397 - this comes with a hud giving you the choice of all 9 colours, a selection of which are shown here - and of course the fat pack includes the matching clutches. 

[LNS Designs] is well worth a visit, they have a selection of very reasonably priced hair, clothing and accessories, plus lots of gifts and lucky chairs, and the items I have bought so far have all been of an exceptionally high quality.  This is definitely a store I will be visiting often, and who will be appearing again on this blog soon!

I have teamed the dress with another item from the Rock Attitude Fashion Fair, the Lima SLink add-ons from Essenz (another new-to-me store), and is one of the two SLink add-ons they have available at the fair.  You can buy a choice of 6 colours separately, or the fatpack which comes with a hud allowing you to change between 6 colours, a selection of which I have also shown in the collages. 

Note:  A problem I have with firestorm sometimes means now and again a texture might not rezz completely - I usually catch this right away, but I appear to have missed it on these shoes - I will redo the photos and re-upload when I can, but please be aware that you need to see these shoes inworld to really appreciate them.
