Just a couple of quick notes

I've added some camping chairs to my main locations. They offer prizes of items of my clothing every hour, so come on by and check them out. I'll be changing them regularly so be sure to check back.

I'm also working on some new things, some men's armor, lingerie, shoes and jewelry. (Yes, I'm all over the place lately :) )

I'm also going to be offering a scripted set of veils, both for the face and head, which not only will allow you to change colors, but have many of the textures of my dresses as well. All in a nifty menu system for convenience.

Finally, I've entered the Budweiser Select Lingerie Legends competition. Should be fun. :)

July 3rd Update









First Life's been so busy, I'm getting a little behind here. :)

Last week I was a guest on a live broadcast TV show here in Second Life; Paisley Beebe hosts a talk show on the ground breaking SLTV network, "Tonight Live". For more information go to her blog at http://paisleybeebejazzbird.blogspot.com/ or check out http://www.slcn.tv/tonight-live-paisley-beebe

I want to thank her and the network for having me, it was a wonderful experience and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Now, for some dresses. :)

Just a simple evening gown, but the texture is rather marvelous I think, I got some great almost metalic sheen out of it. Flex of course, it comes with two skirts and in seven colors. (I got carried away!)

These are all created from similar textures from some of our favorite, early releases. This is a miniskirt with a prim skirt that flows amazingly. Great for dancing.

You can find them at our main stores Gold Coast (240, 57, 21), or in Catwalk City (58, 169, 46), or Galaxy AFT (96, 137, 21) or PetersonIsland2 (196, 191, 25).

May 27 - Part 2



And two more revamps.


May 27















This week we have a lovely medieval gown, with a hint of gaelic trim for you. Detailed with unique flex prims, it comes with 2 skirts, and our color scripted veils. On the other end of the spectrum, we have a lovely silk and burnt velvet evening gown. it too comes with two skirts.Finally, we're going back to some of our older designs, and revamping them - adding options such as alternative skirts, bodices, sleeving, using the things we've learned and been inspired by in the last year to update them. We think you'll like the new versions even better. Everything from 2006 is now priced 100L or less. But note: this is in the main store only for now.

May 21st






I hear some people complain about doing custom work. And while it can be painful, I enjoy it. Every time I do something for someone, I come up with something, I think, a little better than normal.


Here is a gown I created for someone. The original was the cream and gold. But of course I had to add a few different versions in different colors.
I reworked the skirt prims on both the slender and larger versions. That, is the bane of my designer existance. If I make a large skirt, I'm told they want a small one. If I make a small one I'm asked to make a larger one. It's too large, it's too small, etc. So I try to make a variety. :)
In this case I pared down my normal ballgown skirt and did a couple of unique things to get the trim to display correctly. And in the slender skirt I did the same. Aside from this, these skirts are three layers of my normal skirts. One for the underskirt of lace, one which is a solid texture, and the other the gown texture with an alpha layer gradient, getting the blend to the waist that I prefer. I've discovered that I like having the non alpha layer beneath it, I don't get that visual bleed that SL tends towards with transparencies.

Shoes!


Now, theses are not released yet. I'm still playing around with textures and things. But here are my first shoes. :)

Veils


I think these turned out nicely. Flex, with a soft silky texture. Two veils, worn together, the outer one is jeweled. They're color scripted as well.

Celestial Collection









These I owe inspiration to Paisley Beebe, who came to me and asked for a gown to wear for her performance for the International Space Station.

And in part, I owe inspiration to Celebrity Trollop, who said "Wouldn't that look nice in a midnight blue"... :) I also created a knee length full skirt.
