Purplemoon or why I started loving bags

I was going through search to find some places to take pictures when I got an IM from my friend Hazza saying she had a new store at her mall I should check out.

I TPed over and landed in front of this gorgeous small store (which I discover later is just a satellite store) with gorgeous outfits. From casual to formal these guys just rock.

I can’t resist purple so I decided for the Isabella outfit in purple which – OMG – had the totally awesome handbag and shoes included! Not only that ,but the outfit comes in all layers you can combine and wear in 5 or 6 different ways. And all this just for L$375, can you imagine?

They also just released a line of chin dropping stilettos I show you bellow.

Take your time to give a look around the place too. The Thetys mall is discretely located in a Mayan Temple and there are lots of things to do there, from fishing to an art gallery on the pyramid. You’ll see it will be worth your time

Monsieur Labisse

Like I posted here, Alpha.Tribe is one of the shops I often go to to check the new creations. If that can be a sign of anything I own every single piece they have there.

It is not what you can call a normal fashionable style, but the creativeness of every piece shows all that SL can makes us develop our imagination.

The skin and outfit I show you bellow is called Monsieur Labisse and the pack (costing just L$500) contains:

- 5 skins in three tones: Bonjour (PG and normal), Bonsoir (PG and Normal) and Bonnuit (shown bellow)

- 3 hairs: pink green and purple (shown bellow)

- 2 skirts

- 1 pair of sandals (not shown)

You should go and check out her store for more wonderful skins and outfits. Promise it will be worth your time! And keep an eye on herblog too. You’ll see the great stuff she is doing.

Alpha Auer and OMFG

I have been reading Alpha Auer’s posts in NPRIL since I started reading the blog. All her discoveries around the grid were simply amazing in creativity and totally different from what we could see around the blogosphere.

Yesterday I was exploring Mainland and came to a place I found interesting to take a picture and didn’t notice someone was there till I was positioning the camera – I hardly pay attention to my Mystitools radar. And there she was, Alpha, just standing.

Well I am a little shy when it comes to speak to bloggers I read and never met, cause I don’t want to invade their privacy, but this time I really had to talk to Alpha and congratulate her about her posts and her new begining as a designer. The place happened to be her store and she was very nice and we talked for a while.

I couldn’t resist taking with me what she had there for sale. Still not much but a promising work is on the way.

So I took all the dolarbie skins (6 I think) and the two outfits I show you bellow.

First the skins are very carefully made with colours and tatoos embeded that I haven’t seen anywhere else. I was really glad that these would suit my shape, cause it is not easy to find skins that don’t change how I look (ok, ok I’m picky, but most skins just make me look so different from what I am used to).

On the first picture you can see the alpha.tribe::: Golden Ammonite Skin, with beautiful golden shell tatoos on the skull and face and the alpha.tribe Basic Leotard (just L$ 50). With all the fuss about the sale on OMFG, I went there and bought the whole store. Kinda thought that some of the gear would look good with Alpha’s outfit, so I decided to accessorize with the Wings of Rust Thorn, the Big Brass Halo and the Hard Coat Venus Boots (recoloured).

Do I look like a futuristic sort of angel or what? hehe

 

On picture two I am just wearing the alpha.tribe Red Ammonite (full outfit). The skin is included and the hairdress moves softly around your head. The one shown on the picture is the small one, there is still a larger one in the pack, as well as an extra skirt just without the snake textured prims. The skirt prims attach to the belt, so you won’t have them sticking out of your butt.

I am not going to put the URL of Alpha’s store here, once it is not yet opened to the public. But keep tuned for further developments. Other credits and slurls bellow the pictures.

Vampires and Lucky Chairs

Since I can remember Lucky Chairs have always been a part of my SL. First by chair hopping and then my first job in SL was calling for chairs to a lovely small store called Sexy 99 that no longer exists. Although I don’t chair hop as I used to, some still call my attention for the quality of the goods offered.

The first time I went to Crimson Shadow was on a chair call and I just fell in love with the store. The clothes are beautifully designed, for both men and women and the whole castle/shop is carefully build giving it that vampire flare not easy to achieve without being too blunt. Gothic arches, blood fountains, cabalistic symbols all blend together to give the correct atmosphere for the store and club.

They are having a sale on the second floor at the moment, most of the things being at L$50, from complete outfits to Boots, for both ladies and gents.

I show you here one of the outfits and the Funky skulls boots in black.

Also you can see the current outfit at the chair, which changes letter every 30 minutes, but you can buy it for L$350 if you don’t feel like waiting for your letter to come up.

Jolie by OC Orage

…and now is teleporting to find Globe Nr. 100. OC Orage there I go!

I had never heard of this store before and to my amazement I landed in this spacious store full of all these wonderful outfits. When I first set look on the big board on the right of the door I completely forgot about the globe. Don’t you just love leather? And finding good textured leather in SL is not as easy as it may seem.

Hey what is that? Angelina Jolie wearing it? Another good reason to get the outfit. If I can’t have Brad Pitt at least I can have one of Angelina’s gowns, right? lol

Right click… pay! I got it, I got it!

Zooming around the store on the left side of the door I see a bunch of things priced… what? 10 to 30 $Lindens? You can see what’s coming, can’t you? You’re right! I got all the outfits and this just WOW skin that I show you bellow and only by L$ 10! Can you imagine?

Italian designers are the best in the world and Elletra Gausman is no exception. The design, textures and shadows on each outfit just makes you wanna have everything on the store. Most of the prim attachments also come with autofit scripts making it very easy to get the perfect look and you can choose from formal to casual.

So grab your CC and take the taxi to OC Orage. Believe me when I say you won’t regret it.

(oh and I did get that globe *winks)

Farwest

All was quiet in Broken Hill. I had already took a ride around the town to see if everything was peaceful.

The only sounds which could be heard was the wood burning in the campfires at the Indian camp and the rolling of the coal wagons at the mine.

A bit tired from the ride I decided to have a little rest before going to the stables and see if the bulls were ready for the rodeo later on.

It was going to be a long day and the small prison cells would be crowded before the night ended and the barber would be busy taking care of the wounded from the rodeo and the fights. Lets just hope the undertaker won’t have much work, the village needs people to work at the mine.

Bare Rose – The Challenge

What a better way to start than talking about such a great store Bare Rose is? Winter Jefferson launched the challenge so here it goes.

B@R has been one of my favourite stores since my early days in SL. I know the store is laggy, the thousands of textures take ages to rezz and you easily get lost there – in more than one way

However the quality, variety, number of colours and items in each package as well as the originality of each outfit are worth the waiting. And as if all this wasn’t enough the prices are simply shin dropping – I don’t think I ever saw anything above L$150.

Let me show you some of the mixes I do with B@R outfits.

Coat: White Armor Furcoat – B@R

Dress: Jessa – B@R

Shoes: Natasha Heels Black – Tesla

Skin: (CS) Vogue Skin Bronzed (Plum Smokey) Freckled – Celestial Studios

Eyes: Illuminati Blue – Gracile

Hair: Felicity dark gloss – Gurl6

Necklace: Swerve Rose Necklace – Shiny Things

Ring: Dragon – Baker’s
