valentine’s day is swiftly upon us and i’m sure many of you are looking for something beautiful to wear for your sweetheart on the 14th. i have become quite smitten with this elegant gown from haven designs. Delora dropped this black and silver dress on me last night and i have been prancing around like a little princess in it.

like everything from haven designs, this dress sports amazing textures that look very soft and touchable. i am a big fan of brocade patterns so this dress immediately won my heart. it comes in several colours but as i am little miss monochrome… i got the black one.

to make myself a little less black and white, i accessorized with a lovely necklace from unique needs. since we are close to valentine’s day, i figured a heart pendant would be a good choice. i am unfortunately not sure if these are available in her store. when i got mine, it was in a lucky board.

on a different note, i hope no one minds that i’m getting a little bit artsy fartsy with my pictures. i was getting tired of the plain background. i did want to mention that these photos are still not photoshopped except to crop them and add the site name to the corner. i never touch up my avatar or the clothing in these photos because i want to maintain that what you see is what you get. so please do forgive my jaggies and ugly unliquified mesh :p but i hope that these photos are a little less bland than previous looks!

ok enough from me! here’s your shopping list:

hair: Truth – freda (night)
skin: Fishy Strawberry – Lan Sugar – Pitch Dark (possibly not available)
eyes: Exodi – Look into my (frozen Margarita) (lg/nv)
lashes: Celestial Studios – Classic 5
dress: Haven Designs – Rhapsody (black)
necklace: Unique Needs – beloved sanctum heart black necklace
shoes that you cannot see: Fri.day – Basic flats (black)

i tossed this look together yesterday with the hopes of finding a metal club or a place with a mosh pit to take photos in. alas i was unable to find such a place, but the outfit was so cute i figured i’d share it.

shopping list:
hair: gritty kitty – fader-black
skin: dendou – keiko ate the chocolate by stealth (hunt gift)
eyes: fantajecca-eye typeB red2 (not available)
shirt: 13Cherry – nashville pussy tshirt (freebie)
skirt: luck inc – lowrise mini jeans skirt black grey stripes
tights: gigi couture – black slit tights (freebie)
boots: ANEXX – leather rider boots type a
poses: niqotine (not available)

before we get into the crazy eyes i’ll start with the eyes i wear when i want to be normal (as if i can be normal :p). exodi makes these really beautiful eyes that sparkle and have a realistic feel to them. i love that the iris looks kinda like glitter and the shine on the eyes make them look wet like real eyes.

these are my staple eyes. i usually prefer to wear red eyes but of all the red eyes i have, these are my favourite. unfortunately i have not been able to find this store inworld for some time. these eyes have a really pretty glassy effect that remind me slightly of a doll’s eyes.

i got these eyes in a big fatpack at frick a while back. i’m not sure if they are still up for sale but if they are go get them because the price is great and you get a bunch of really cool eyes. i’m always on the look out for eyes with black sclera and weird irises and these fit both of those!

this last pair of eyes was specially made for me by nara tairov. she sent me the yellow ones that she made for 50L fridays and i asked for green and so i got green nara is working on animal eyes and so far she has made some really amazing ones! this is the only pair of goat/sheep eyes i have ever seen in my entire 3 almost 4 years of second life. bug her and tell her you want them for sale!

shopping list:

exodi – look into my (frozen margarita)(lg/v)
-fantajecca-eye – typeB red2 (no longer in sl)
{frick} – Vengeance 1
turquoise unicorn studios- Baa Ram Yew Eyes – Limey (not for sale…yet)

i’ll start with my fave of all favourite prim eyes. now i’m putting down that their store is night ghast, but they used to be under the name numinos. these eyes were made by nebulosus severine and were passed to me directly from her. i have no idea if they are for sale or if they have ever actually been for sale but she has some really awesome prim eyes and regular eyes among her creations so if her store is still around i recommend checking it out.

my second favourite pair of prim eyes are the “ice eyes” by AVid. they are really hard to photograph because of their glow but under the glowing prims is an eye with an awesome ice texture. adding the glow prim adds some interesting effects to the eye, they look much better when not zoomed in very close like i have here.

these “HAL eyes” from burning chrome are another fave of mine. they are from the 2009 twisted hunt and i am not sure if they are available for sale. i love these eyes because i love the movie they pay homage to. 2001 a space odyssey is one of my all time favourite movies, even though i am afraid of creepy AI controlled things such as HAL. i often pair one of these prim eyes with one of the static contacts for a really wicked look.

my last fave for the prim eye blog comes from house of ruin. i first encountered their store via the DSN system and immediately fell in love with their unique eyes. this is the hell-ena eye in “guaricana”. i bought the set which also comes with a cross pupil and a slit pupil, as well as this one which has no pupil.

and that concludes the prim eye portion of this! next blog will be normal non-prim system eyes.

eyes shown:

Static Contacts – nebulosus severine (night ghast/numinos) (possibly unavailable)
Ice Eyes – AVid
HAL Eyes – Burning Chrome (possibly unavailable)
Hell-ena Eyes – House of Ruin

my 2009 ended badly and i was unable to keep up with this blog. (read here if you’re curious what happened) i had originally planned to blog this outfit on the first of the year but my internet was on the fritz until yesterday, so i’m just now getting around to it. that means you have less than a DAY left to snag this amazing orpheun circuit dress from tiny bird. the designers united vaudeville exhibition will be ending tomorrow, jan. 6th.

autumn hykova has come a long way and its been fun to watch her get better and better as time goes on. i have been searching for the perfect black ballerina outfit and i think i found it!

to complete my outfit i used my favourite ballerina boots made by fairlight industries. last time i went to this store they were just a box with a rant about copybotting so i have no clue if they are in sl anymore… but if they are YOU NEED THESE BOOTS! they are beautiful and even compatible with restrained life, if you are into that sort of thing

the skin i am wearing is from fishy strawberry’s 50L sale that they had back in october (i think it was october?) i have to be honest here and say that it is not the best skin overall. its a little grainy… however for the look i’m going for, its perfect. i really love the pout to the lips. not sure if they dumped these skins after the sale was over though.. so might not be available anymore.

yes i am way late to the lady gaga bow hair party. i grabbed this hair from the magika sale and honestly i got it mostly because it covers the eyes and i liked the way it looked with my face. its kinda a lady gaga meets the ramones look. not sure if that is available anymore either… yes i promise some of these items are for sale! i hope..

one thing that is definitely for sale is the tattoo i’m wearing from my own marla quote set (you can find it at LuNi) it says “good luck saving her” which is what marla says to the cops as she’s running out of the building with tyler.

my jewelry is from deco and callie cline and was both stores’ 50L friday black friday offering. both are great finishing touches to this outfit.

there were a ton of really awesome outfits and other things at the designers united exhibition but out of all of what i bought, i love this ballerina dress the most! and i really hope autumn will make more clothes!

part of my new years resolution is to really step up and blog more on all my blogs and that means hopefully this blog will get a lot more love.

here’s your shopping list:

hair: magika – bow – black A
skin: fishy strawberry – lan sugar – pitch dark
necklace: deco – black pearl double strand necklace
ring: callie cline – the BLACK ROCK ring
tattoo: LuNi – marla quotes – good luck saving her
shoes: fairlight industries – knee high ballet boots v2.1
outfit: tiny bird – orpheun circuit dress (available at designers united until jan. 6)

poses: boudoir rouge poses

tonight’s look comes from boredom and sorting inventory. the database did something weird and i couldn’t wear half of the stuff in my folders, so after it fixed its self i decided to throw on some fun stuff.

i really dunno what to say about this look so i guess i’ll just get on with the shopping list. i do promise that i’m going to try and be more active on this blog so don’t count me out yet.

Hair : >TRUTH Hair< Alyssa – night
Eyes : fantajecca-eye typeB red2 (not available)
Skin : *CUPCAKES – Sweetheart – Alabaster – Clevage (group gift)
Vest : Schadenfreude Bloody Stripe Vest
Pants : part of The Black Canary : Frill Life outfit
Necklace : Sinistyle ‘Hail Mary’ Rosary
Shoes you can’t see : Maitreya SoHo Boots ‘PatentMix Black’ (halloween group gift)

my really good friend jasmine passed me this outfit after she realized she’d already bought it once before. its a beautiful cropped long sleeve top and floor length skirt from sn@tch called “autumn gothic”. the whole thing comes with several tops in different colours but me being little miss afraid of colour picked black as usual.

i tossed this look together today after updating one of my skins to the new eloh skin template. this skin is not available to the public however because it was the limited edition juliet skin from our 2008 vain inc ghost hunt prize. i have to get the ok from the other half of LuNi before i can sell it, but i wanted to show it off because i love this skin and always have.

i’ve noticed that i gravitate towards wearing this same darn hair from analog dog, but can you really blame me? its beautiful and its long flowing curls are perfect for this sort of outfit.

also in this look are eyes from Frick that are awesome and really affordable, a bone tiara from canimal, and my favourite boots from sinistyle which you cannot see.

time to go shopping!

eyes: {Frick} – Vengeance 2
hair: analog dog – lua (black)
skin: version 2 of the LuNi Designs Dead juliet skin (not available to the public… yet…)
tiara: Canimal – Boneyard Voodoo Tiara
outfit: Sn@tch – Autumn Gothic (black)
shoes that you can’t see: Sinistyle – Deception Boots
pose: [LAP]

this morning my dear friend jasmine tp’ed me to the Fri.day sale… well ok she tp’ed me there to see if it was still on… we were lucky and it was, and i went on a little shopping spree

i know alot of people have been mentioning that the owner(s) of Fri.day are alts but really who cares when they make stuff like this?!?! their store is packed full of some really great basics and even some shoes and hair!

the sunglasses in this outfit are from Lookr and they are currently on sale! very cute and they come with a version for your eyes and one for on top of your head.

the tanktop i’m wearing is old Truth, which sadly while still awesome, is no longer available for purchase.

i love this guitar even though it was a mistake purchase. for lucas’ xmas present a couple of years ago i bought him this guitar on slx. but by accident (i was half asleep at the time) i hit the buy now button instead of the gift button and ended up sending it to myself! the creator, nomasha was very kind and helped me get one to lucas but now i have this guitar that i barely take out of my inventory. still thought it was a cool accessory for this outfit.

here’s your shopping list!

i also want to apologize for a lack of updates, i have been lazy and i do have a few things in my “BLOG THIS!” folder to show off, just haven’t taken the time to do it. i’m getting a new graphics card by next week (my old one died today *sob*) so i’ll be trying to blog more as soon as that arrives!

Rotten toe makes my favourite kind of clothes, creepy, dolly, goth, trashy, etc. so i bought and bought and bought. here’s a couple of the outfits i put together using their stuff.

these are the "bibfever" overalls in dead soul. they come with the awesome ripped up red tights in two versions. with an underwear layer to make them full tights, or as a stockings version. there’s also a scarf and an alternate skirt prim, as well as an undershirt which i opted not to wear. in its place i am wearing an old bikini top from artilleri.

this second outfit is a bit more gothy, using the infected black satin shirt, which is really awesome for its low price. it has a ruffly prim tail and prim collar, and comes in all layers. the formal ringmaster pants are also by rotten toe, and come in all layers and also include a notecard that give you some ideas on how to mod the pants and wear them differently. i’m wearing the underwear layer here to tuck them into these awesome boots from VDI.

ok that’s enough from me! go shopping!
