NOT free but sexy AF (50Lds).

As soon as I spotted the corset and the price tag,1 click and it was in my invent.

The photo has been edited so TRY before you buy but trust me the colours and texturing and front and back details are amazing but again check out the demo first for yourself. I picked the pink and green version, other colours are available but bought separately.  Only 2 sizes and Alphas inc but I think you can see I had no probs with the fit and I don’t think many will.  The pasties are also inc the pack and can be worn as seperates.

There are other 50Ld offers in the Violent Seduction shop and you will find those in the GG and Lucky Board room.  The group isn’t free, I think it’s 250Lds so I will leave that for you to check out.

There is also some Gacha’s which cost 50 or 25Lds and I actually won an excellent red dress for just 25Lds but it was a rare and I didn’t want it, I actually wanted one of the hats so I passed the dress on and when I LM grab I might just try my luck at that Gacha because for 25Lds it’s worth the risk.

Its almost time for a new round of The Arcade and I for one will be hitting up the machines and the yardsales to get my fix. Above is the rare win form Scarlet Creative , the “Amelie inspired by spring Mansion”. The colour tones on this are exceptionally beautiful. The roof is a teal green – blue hue, it really sets off the colour of the walls magnificently. Each play is only 50L and the other prizes (lounger,bath,sofa,towel rail,basket) are all worth a try for too. I’m always surprised by the space inside Charlotte’s homes, outside they can appear to be quite delicate little builds, but inside so much room.

I do get a bit obsessed with the textures in the Scarlet Creative builds especially the antiquated plaster effects – I know that’s weird but heyho ! The thing is I do own a place in France (just outside Paris) and so much of the textures are like these – its why I fell in love with the place – its not an excuse honest! Anyhow, many levels to explore and fine features to admire. Thanks Charlotte ❤

The Arcade (opens on the 1st March)

Bird Feed. (Freebies)

I was rummaging in my “Horrible Stuff” folder to see what I have for Halloween and came across my Rotten Toe stuff so I literally threw on a few random Rotten Toe items and TPed over.  Just for fun, and yes that’s exactly how I looked when I TPed in, I took a quick snap of me on one of their poses you can buy.  Have a peek at the birdie, I have blogged it before, you wear it and then walk around taking sneaky bites out of it with its twig like legs and flying feathers it freaky fun.  Sends out the occasional “don’t worry it was already dead when I found it!” messages so no one will think you’re a bird killer.

Non Mesh lovely corset. Beige with pink and peachy trims.  I’m wearing it with the prim skirt which blends in really well but it’s just as sexy without that skirt.  Well defined lacing up the back as well.

Full frontal.  The corset is only 75Lds also have a look at the stockings they came in a pack of Vintage Circus Hosiery for only 15Lds you get 5 different patterns.  Check out all the shops that are opened onto the courtyard because some look as though they’re empty but they’re not.  Some real great bargains to be had here because even full priced everything is more than reasonable but there are also great Group Gifts, Dollarbies, 10Lds offers scattered about .  The Group is only 15Lds to join and you get more than your moneys worth back from the GG’s alone and there is a lovely variety of hair, skin and clothes so well worth it.

Blimey forgot to mention that The Twisted Hunt is going on here as well and if I can find it so  can you!

Don’t Turn Around!

Sorry I can’t turn around because on the front of this top is a very rude word (F*ck).  normal go for clothing in SL or RL that have slogans on them but since this comes from Vita’s Boudoir I of course TPed as soon as I got the notice of a Group Gift on offer.  Check out the skirt. A very wet leather look but it’s it’s wind lifted look that is the attention grabber. Fortunately comes with a pair of panties or if you dare to bare!

Both items are mesh and Group Gifts and that is still FREE to join.

A short post, for once, but RL is shouting at me I just wanted to get this lovely GG up.  So I will not wax lyrical about Vita’s Boudoir and her amazing dramatic clothes and costumes, over blown hair and statement pieces I will save all that for my next Vita’s Boudoir post.

WOAH!

I’ve just received the list of the shops and designers who are participating in the Donna Flora fund raising  and the list is VAST!  I think it is probably the longest list of any event I have ever seen in all my years in SL. Kudos to those who must have spent an enormous time organizing all of this because the list alone had my head reeling let alone trying to organise it.  It’s a reflection of how much people hold Squinternet Larnia in their esteem that so many have been so generous in their offerings.

So basically, as far as I know because it hasn’t officially started, shops/designers have placed items out with a certain percentage going towards helping Squinternet Larnia and in some cases all the funds will be donated .  I will put the link to Squinternet’s story so you can see why so many people are feeling for her.

Looking for romance then try Romance Couture a shop packed with froth and froo froo.  Big ball gowns with flowing skirts.  Old fashioned glamour.  3 floors of dresses, shoes and jewels for you to recreate a glamorous look.  Mainly non mesh as you cannot get the liquid look with mesh yet but she does have a small selection of mesh clothes and even a rather good freebie which you can grab at the LM.  The event isn’t open officially till the 25th and so this is just a preview but as soon as it’s open I’ll pop on a reminder.

But of course you can go straight to Donna Flora and treat yourself just as I did.  Feminine hooped skirt with matching  “Marie Antoinette” styled hair and matching stockings/socks. Non Mesh sculpted hoop which is easy to edit down the tiny bit I needed to fit better.

Donna’s Story

Squinternet Larnia

Some people manage to pick the best AV names and Squinternet Larnia is one of them but she maybe better know for her shop Donna Flora. If you don’t know that name you’d better get used to it because there is a big push of Slers and others promoting her shop to raise funds for Squinternet.  The reason being is that behind our perfect AVs are equally beautiful but flawed real humans and sometimes life bites you on the butt.  Sadly Squinternet is not well and although we cannot be there as a shoulder to cry on, a helping hand in the home, a picker up of shopping and a bit of a laugh to take her mind off life’s troubles we can however indulge in a bit of retail therapy and in return Squinternet gets a little bit of extra money to go towards helping making life a little bit nicer.  This ISN’T a charity call or even worse a pity call because Squinernet has something a lot of us can never offer and that’s a shop of amazing designs, old, new, retro, funky, out there, basics, period pieces, hats, gems & Jewels and don’t get me started on the shoes!

So far all I have bought is this hat and that’s only because I just cannot make up my mind on what else to get every time wander around her large beautiful shop I mentally tag everything I want.  Not the cheapest of clothes but honestly you’re not paying for a bog standard repackaged mundane stuff.  Each outfit is well crafted beautifully textured, unique and so feminine.

OH! so I went back to do this write up and grab the LMs and finally chose some other lovelies to treat myself to and this hat has a matching outfit to go with it.  I somehow resisted this but did treat myself to some ribboned shoes and a framed corset dress so watch out for those in my next blogg.

Don’t be put off my the cost! You pay for quality for sure but click around and she does have items from as little as 60Lds and just outside the front door through the gates are the dollarbies and old gifties.
