New Take on an Old Favourite...


Hello again! Two posts in one day, my goodness, aren't you lucky?

A while back I began updating some of my oldest designs to match the standard of my newer ones, as I would like my customers to be confident that whichever design they choose to buy will be of the highest standard in terms of texturing and attachments. I began with the Hairspray costumes, but then got a little distracted by the lure of new shiny designs on the horizon and got involved with making them instead. I'm back on track with updating stock now and although the thought of a complete overhaul of the oldest stock is a daunting prospect, I know it's something that I have to do.

So, I thought what better place to start than at the very beginning, with my very first design, 'Classic Red Polka'? This dress was the very first outfit I ever made in Second Life, and it really shows. It's had a good run in its original form, but is in desperate need of an update.

Firstly, I worked on the bodice and made the shading a heck of a lot more subtle around the chest area. The colour is also a much more vibrant red, and the straps now match over the shoulders. The biggest difference has to be the black cinch belt, which is now a prim attachment. This prevents the texture stretching when the ribcage of the avatar moves, and also means that you get a nifty cinch belt to wear with other outfits too. Wahey.

I hope that you'll agree that the new version is a great improvement on the original. I'm sure you'll be pleased to hear that the price has also improved - dropping to just L$200! The Lucky Chair has also been updated with the latest version.

New Release - Lola



Hello everyone,

The new release this month is a classic vintage silk high-waisted pencil skirt with a co-ordinating silk blouse. This outfit accentuates your curves and just oozes silky sophistication! The blouse is tied at the neck with a pussy bow and has cute capped sleeves. My favourite things about this outfit are the small star shaped buttons at the waist of the skirt, which make a pretty finishing touch and come in gold or silver. The skirt is flatteringly ruched at the waist, making this an outfit for dangerous curves. If you're looking for a classically elegant outfit with more than a touch of 40's glamour then 'Lola' is for you! Just L$250 inworld and XStreet.

Hope to see you in world!
