Group Freebie: Poppy Love

I think we're overdue for a group gift, so here's some Valentine love for the *ICING* Update Group members. Poppy Love is a sweet little strapless babydoll that's printed in a delicate floral pattern and finished with a burgundy satin bow just under the bust. Non group members can purchase this at Mischief Cove.The model is wearing:
Skin: Tuli S5 medium ~ natural 1 (group gift)
Hair: ETD Peyton - Strawberry
Necklace: Shiny Things Wood Elf Necklace (available for free at the GNUbie Store)

Rose Romantique and Princess Pearls Set

Just in time for Valentine's Day, Rose Romantique is a draped silk satin floor length gown in a shimmering pink hue. I've also created a necklace and drop earring set for this dress in silver and lustrous pearls, available separately at the Mischief Cove store exclusively:



The Princess Pearl Set is a classic princess length double strand choker with a sunburst silver clasp and includes matching teardrop pearl earrings. This set was created with the Rose Romantique in mind, but timeless enough for nearly any outfit.

New Store and 50% Off Everything Sale!

New Store, Huge Sale!

My new main store in Mischief Cove is all set up, and to celebrate everything at this location is 50% off until Sunday night! Note that this sale is *only* at the Mischief Cove location.

Old landmarks should work fine, come on down and take a looksie!

P.S. I'm working with a brand spankin' new motherboard now, so I'm back in gear. Woo!

Computer woes

Well, it looks like my damned Shuffle blew out my motherboard so I am without a decent computer for about a week. ~Cries~ So my plans for moving *ICING* and the new freebie I was working on will be delayed until my main machine is fixed, as well as any new releases until I'm up and running again. Also, my access will be touch and go until that happens, so if you have any emergencies with *ICING*, Mischief Cove or Arcana, send me an email and I'll try to handle it from my crappy little laptop. My email can be found in my profile.

Cross your fingers for me!

Glitterati and more Twilight colors

Miko Channels her inner Hilton in Glitterati in Onyx.



I loved Punch Drunk's Glam Rock outfit so much that I was inspired to do a "look at me!" sequined dress of my own, but with sort of a disenchanted heiress kind of twist. Glitterati is a babydoll halter dress with a spaghetti halter tie and satin trim. It comes in Sapphire, Ruby, Onyx and Amethyst.



Also, it's a bit under 30 days, but as I'll be out of town soon I'm releasing additional colors for the Twilight gown now. You can still grab the free Amethyst color in the group notification for a few days, so make sure you get your hands on it before it rolls off.

The models are wearing:
(Top)
Skin: Minnu Model Skins - Pale SkinGloss-Smokey
Hair: ETD Phoebe - Dirty
Jewelry: Earthtones Retro Rounds Set - Black/White

(Bottom)
Skin: (CS) Vogue Skin - Cashmere (Noir - Smoky)
Hair: ETD Chalisa II - Smoke
Jewelry: Mercury Silver and Pearl Set

Stepford Wife

I've decided that for a girlie shop, I don't have enough pink items in inventory. Therefore I present Stepford Wife, a sweet soft pink cardigan with bow detailing and a flared A-line gray skirt.

On another note, my neighbor in Mischief Cove, Mercury Couture, is bidding adieu and has marked all their accessories down to L$10! I think there's only a couple of days left, and these are pieces really worth having, so run and snap these up while you can!

And a last related note, I will be moving into their spot so I have a little more space to grow. Stay tuned for updates.

The model is wearing:
Skin: Minnu Model Skins - Pale SkinGloss-Smokey
Hair: ETD Roslin - Dirty
Hairband: Mercury Pearl Feathered Crown
Necklace and Earrings: Mercury Silver and Pearl Set

Fifth Avenue

I've finally shaken off the post-holiday laziness and came up with a new outfit. Fifth Avenue is a vibrant peacock-hued printed silk top with a ruched silver cummerbund, paired with a black pencil skirt with a sexy side slit.

Skin: Minnu Model Skins - Pale SkinGloss-Smokey
Hair: ETD - Sofia in Strawberry
Necklace: ~Muse~ Claris Three-Strand Pearl and Diamond choker in Silver

Fields of Bloom

Back from the Holidays and sick of the cold? Indulge in Field of Blooms, a sweet cropped jacket covered in poppies and paired with an airy white eyelet skirt with silver sequined trim. Available in Bluebell, Fern, Rose, and Hyacinth.

Hair: Ingenue Bombshell in Natural Black
Jewelry: Mercury Silver and Pearl Earrings and Necklace

Also, I'd like to give you a preview of the new ad I'll be running in the January edition of Second Style. I'm really pleased with how it turned out. Hope you all like it!

Back to basics! Femme en Noir is a sophisticated, timelessly elegant black velvet dress with a v-neck and 3/4 length sleeves. It is accessorized with a free, detailed enamel, pearl and gold brooch. (My first jewelry attempt- I nearly went blind, those microprims are tough little suckers to spot!)

I guess it's my turn

I'll try to keep this short, to preseve valuable vertical space on the feed. :)

The Rules:

1. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
2. People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules.
3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

Here goes:

1. I once got lost for an entire day in the back roads of Costa Rica. The highlight of that fiasco was a howler monkey pooping on my rental jeep. Good times.
2. I haven't thrown up in almost 20 years.
3. While I love flats in SL, I never wear them IRL. I live in heels!
4. I once rode a Segway in Paris in the dark wearing a helmet and a reflective vest. I looked like a huge dork.
5. While English is technically my second language, it's the only one I can speak now with any confidence.
6. I went to private Catholic schools for 13 years (though I'm not Catholic.) To this day, any guy I tell this fact to asks me if I still have my uniform.
7. I once discovered that diving to the ocean floor in a 3-person submarine is not the best idea for someone with clausterphobia.
8. I believe that while cupcakes are sublime, mini cupcakes are the work of the devil. The icing-to-cake ratio is way off and they're always too dry.

At this point I think everyone on the planet has been tagged, so no tags from me. :)

Holiday Party

Time for something festive, fun, and a little showy! Holiday Party is a steel blue silk strapless dress with a gathered bodice, tulle underskirt, and an inset lace waist. It also includes a fluffy, over the top white fox fur wrap with contrast ribbon closure.

Hair: ETD Anisa - Black
Skin: Deviant Nation Vogue Skin - Champagne (Last Call - Fishnet)

Study Date

This week *ICING* presents Study Date, for the sexy librarian in all of us. This outfit features a crisp white shirt with poof sleeves, black pencil skirt, and an optional wide red crocodile skin belt, softened with a sweet satin bow.

For my group members, I've created a silly little freebie to accompany this outfit, a set of books to complete the look.

Hair: ETD Tyra - Black
