1930's and a Little Teasing...

First the Teasing Adventure -
Select a night when you're alone in sl..no date ..no chatty friends. Just you and maybe a glass of wine. ANYONE can do it without ever leaving their SL home.

1 - Look in your groups and select one. I selected the SL Things to Do group...and looked at all the members online.
2 - Select a person (hell yes - it was a man!) and im him randomly. Yes ladies and gents - they MUST be online.
3 - im them - yup just wiggle your fingers at them and watch their reaction. Their sloooow response (cuz they're scared they might have met you and sort of ..forgot:))
4 - tell them you're a stranger - no matter what - dont tp them or go to them..stay only in im from a distance.
5 - A safe word must be given to them. My safe word for the night was "shhhhh" if they said it I had to leave them alone.

I must admit my goal was to catch the sl man "off guard". Yeeeees, do some teasing. I swear, I contacted 3 men that night and had some of the most interesting conversations of my sl life. They seemed much more candid than the men you see at a concert or out while exploring.

As one of the men concentrated so hard on whatever he was building i randomly imed him with random comments "nonono...move it to the left" "do you HAVE to pick that color" until he laughed and yes, he never once used his safe word:)

Ok ladies - just try it - The men will amaze you at how they land on their feet:) remember - you are both in that group so you have SOMETHING in common...run with it!

Now the 1930s!

Thank goodness Nef is back at Ivalde. You have no idea how much my wardrobe depends on this woman!

Take a peek at what she returned with.

This stunning 1930's suit seems so simple when you first notice it...look closer. From the beautiful buttons up the back to the little nips and tucks at the waist, it has to be one of the most tailored vintage dresses I've seen in a long time.

I wanted something vibrant to make it "pop" so I selected a bold red hair from TRUTH. Yup, I'm one of those hair designers who feels perfectly comfortable wearing other designers wares.

Of course the skin had to back up that hair:) so I selected a great lipstick with a softer grey eyeshadow over at Curio.

The heels were sweet and perfect - yay for color changing scripts!!!! This pair has oodles of bow colors to select from and a bit of silver was all I needed.

Dress - Ivalde, Laurende (1930's)
Shoes - Shiny Things, Tuli Pumps
Skin - Curio, :GP: Petal [Dark] June-Swan 2
Hair - >TRUTH< href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Kahmiya%20Cove/162/209/26">REDSKULL*

I don't wear a lot of jewelry - but this one had my name all over...I love it!


Well - off to explore and if I'm very good, I'll even build some today:)

Free and Almost

I always wondered, do folks ever really read the post or is it all just about the photos?

I suppose there is one way to find out. I could mention where to find a freebie, and if people show up and snag it, I'll know they really do read them.

First for the non freebie - this amazing Panda Dress from *kataOnik*....run, don't walk to get this one for only $25L.

For a Lolita style I went with the Toasted Coconut Teddi hair at Vignette. So here's the free part: go to the store and find the subscription kiosk (this one does not count toward your 25) and join! This color is a group gift for a limited time. Don't be shy, check to see if anything is in box attached to the vendor. If you ever think you may have missed something, that's where it'll be.

Let's Cheer!!!!

Personally, I just love a good roleplay and props are crucial....no...they really are.

*Pompoms are great for waving under noses.
*Bobbysocks separate the sophisticated Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader types from the 18 - 21 yr old types...uh..sure - the college kids.
*Short skirt that flips up when you swing your hips at just the right guy.
*Last but not least, pig tails to hold onto (in the right situation:)

So go check out the team games in sl and start cheering (or jeering) as the case may be. I dare you to be the most annoying cheerleader of all time!

Hair - [V] Vignette Teddi Wintergreen

Outfit - ::: B@R ::: Cheer Leader (look among the newer release stuff in the middle of the store). BareRose outfits are always an AMAZING bargain and you always get more than you expect in the box. Green, blue, purple, red, OMGosh - This is like a 4 in one!

Shoes - PornStar Hi-Tops MultiColor v2. Yes, the might seem a tiny bit pricey but they're worth it. Touch them and you get tons of color options all rolled up into one shoe - no need for a fat pack to clutter your inventory.

Skin - :GP: Petal FREX [Light] April-Jonquil 1. I wanted something that looked natural and young.

A Taste of the 50's

50's Magic - it doesn't get better than that!

I've got about 4 stores on my "must have" list and Artilleri is one of them. The slightest hint of a release and I'm there. As you take a close look at the poodle skirt, notice all those amazing highlights and shadows (along with the way it moves when you walk) makes this one a "must have".

What a FUN pair of shoes from Jet Doll. Your 50's look wouldn't be complete without these.

Last but not least is the Jaime hair from Vignette. It gives the whole look a perky college girl feel. Jaime is only available at Hair Fair, so stop by and check out the demo. It wont be in the main store for 2 more weeks.

Hopefully now I can take the time to blog a few thing (since hair fair is underway).

Here's a taste of the 50's!

Cute Curly and Retro

Taking a break from all things hair -

I had to show off this sweet reto look from Icing. What a great way to get in the mood for July 4th! All red white and blue with a perky little sailor hat on top. I love these kinds of hats, they can pretty much set on any hair without any trouble at all.

And check out the hair - oh yes, woohoo! Made it all by myself and is only at hair fair (to be moved to the store on vignette when the fair closes). Old Shirley Temple photos inspired me on this one. Drop by hair fair and try it on.

The skin is soft and sweet thanks to Romi Juliesse!

These great red pumps at Juicy work perfectly with the outfit and yes ladies, I own this fat pack.
