Toooo much!!

I have to really stop looking for new things to blog because I have so many good thing to show you  and so little time before Christmas really kicks off in our house, but couldn’t resist popping to the new round of Genre because it’s Victorian and all things Victoriana with those laced up boots, tight corsets and sexual repression was just too tempting.

victoSorry sorry sorry but I just couldn’t light it up enough to show off the colours too well but that s also partly because the dark green velvet of the skirt and black of the ruffle at the neck are so deep and lush.  As you can see the skirt is one of the newer designs that fall in a more natural way.  Best of all is that the top and skirt are separates so especially  the skirt can be worn with other items.  This is La Petite Morte’s offering at the Genre event and it costs 100Lds and I would say snatch it up now as it can’t remain at that price much longer.  If you’re short of cash then there a lot of the stalls have a 10Ld giftie set out for you and again I’ve just not had time to even look at them all but the umbrella and pose is one and also the top hat which is so good I’ve sent the LM to Baylen to go grab it. Oops almost forgot to mention that nothing at the Genre will cost more than 100Lds and they have everything from a Poseable Penny Farthing  to laced up corsets and some furniture inbewteen.
HouseIt was this picture of this house sent out in the Genre Notice that got me running.  I wanted to get it posted so quickly I just rezzed it on the plot of land next to my own home.  Comes from Jalynne Ohmai (&Nicolias Sadoul) and their shop Unrepentant.  WOW and I’ve seen many a house/home/hut and this is just gorgeous and for a 100Lds a massive bargain.

StairsShe’s managed to pull of a Victorian look without going overboard and becoming fussy and unattractive to those who just want a few details but something that would suit old style furniture or even modern furniture and this works so well.  The stair case is stunning and check out the door, you will see a picture of where that leads to soon.

Windows

There are 2 rooms up and downstairs, big, bright and spacious and each front room has a bay window (this is the second downstairs room)  in fact there are lots of windows and they’re not all the same so it makes for bright and open rooms.  On the back of the house is a door which opens into a small glass, brick sunroom.  Lovely touch that there is also a backdoor.

Basement

Then when I opened the door under the stairs I spotted the steps down to a mud floored basement for storing your wine, old furniture, playtoys 😉  Some lovely texturing, shading, details and all that adds up to only 72 prims which is damned good and as I said a 100Ld price tag ..CHEAP.

Guilty!

I didn’t need it, I shouldn’t have bought it, I don’t have anywhere to put it and yet….I couldn’t resist it!

CorneredOver the years I have lived in many homes but all have been along the lines of retro, old, shabby chic etc and over the years I have amassed a lot of old Victoriana style items including ovens but when I saw this full sized great detailed old Victorian Range from Storax Tree and I just had to have it.  It’s 24 prims, comes without the accessories.  200Lds and worth both the prims and the price.  This is a great room filler.  For those of you into RPing this is amazing and for those who aren’t but love the old style a great look can be created.

Cornered1Quickly digs out my sexy lola tango maids outfit so I can pose next to it just so you can see the size of the range which is the exact size an old range would be.  Even if your not into the look still check out StoraxTree which I know well because it usually has a hunt or in this case 2 hunts going on and best of all check out the range because sitting on it is the Menu Mania Heaven Hud (MMHH letters) for 5Lds you get a cool AFK prop pose but splash out a bit more and the 49Lds for the Birds and the Bee’s hunt (a big bird) and you get an amazing over sized shoe for you to  pose on.

And then I spotted the “clippie mats” which made me squeal.  I come from the North East of the UK and we call them clippie mats but most people call them rag rugs.  The texturing is so realistic of fabric strips woven into bright garden patternsand only 50Lds.

The Sexy Maid outfit comes from Gathering which is a shop for the bustiest of the busty.  It has a range of clothing not just for Lolas but all the boobs out there.  Yes it has the tarty and trashy but also the elegant and unusual.  Costumes such as the maids one or full lenth ball gowns.
