At long last, freebie time!

I've had this freebie sitting in my inventory, but the original plans for it never came to fruition, so here it is at long last!  Robot Love is a version of the Soda Shop in a rich cayenne red, with a black sweater shrug and a chain closure that is held by a cute pair of robots.  It's a little random, but it's free at Mischief Cove, and perfect for fall.  Come get!

Secondly, I recently retextured the Valedictorian hair freebie for the opening of the Hairspray 2 sim opening, and it's now available in 8 colors.  Grab it from the freebie cabinet shelf and enjoy!

RFL Releases and a freebie

The Relay for Life Clothing Fair is open! *ICING* is presenting 2 new exclusive dresses for this occasion, and all proceeds from these designs go to Relay for Life.



I've received a number of requests to make the Miss Hathaway dress in other colors, so here's your chance to get this gown in soft pink.



And Azalea Sunset is the second offering, a silk halter dress with a tiered hem and a vibrant salmon-colored band.

Both these dresses are available only at the *ICING* kiosk in the Relay for Life Clothing Fair sim, and are only available during the duration of the fair. Due to the limited edition nature of the outfits, they are Copy/Mod/No Transfer, so please take note!



Lastly, I'm offering the Princess Pearl Bracelet, a companion to the Princess Pearl choker and earring set, as a little freebie. You can pick this up from a gift bag (packaged with the Night Mist dress, sorry for the repeat) at my new satellite location in the Plaza Colonial Shops in Laguna Arenal or at the RFL kiosk.

Night Mist and Tropical Leis

In-store freebie time!



Night Mist is an ethereal strapless cocktail dress composed of starched black tulle printed with misty gray leaves. It has a ruched bodice with just the slightest bit of sequins and, of course, the trademark satin sash with waist bow. Available at the Mischief Cove store in the Freebie cabinet.

The model is wearing:

Skin: Popfuzz Skin Medium - Smokey Nude
Hair: ETD Roslin - Espresso

On an unrelated, non-*ICING* note, I've released a set of leis at my Pixelated Petals store in the Cove. These were originally a custom job I completed for a client's tropical wedding and she has graciously allowed me to sell them in my little flower shop.







The orchid leis are available in Ivory or Pink.



Two versions of the Ti Leaf Lei are available. Shown here is the "fuller" version intended for the groom. A version with less leaves for the groomsmen is also available. All leis are fully primmed.
