52 Weeks of Colour-Red

Red for passion, Red for danger, Red for STOP..OK I will stop with the redologies (yep I made up a word)

I was spoiled for choice as red seems to be everywhere at the moment.

I finally chose the body suit from A&A which was staggeringly inexpensive at L$14 another great valentines/sales promo. It's quite revealing and shows your bum off yikes!

 

It reminded me of an ice skating costume sort of so I grabbed the free ice skates from V Style on the Marketplace.

I wanted some really red nails and I found them at Glamorize. They have a great selection of nails in every colour you could possibly want or need and they wont break the bank (or your nails) at L$25. My earrings are a Valentines freebie from  Glamorize too.

Frugal Pink

A quick post to let you  know about a store I discovered today (via Vain group chat) 'La Femme'.

Unfortunately the store is closing down and all items are now L$25. There isn't a huge amount of stuff there but it's definitely worth a look.

I picked up this cute dress/shirt/blouse, it's very pretty and ultra feminine.

The boots I am wearing at from 'Glad Rags' yet another store which is going out of business, they cost me the princely sum of  L$5 a simple classy boot for your inventories.

Who's in the house?

/me raises hand..that would be me, well in the Fashion House at least.

Fashion House is another of those great bargain price designer events.

 

There are lots of goodies to buy including the amazing Chiffon Safari Skirt by The Secret Store (L$50) and the truly beautiful Acid & Mala' Human Eyes' in Moss and Straw. The pack includes different combinations,constricted and dilated pupil, lighter and darker iris and eye prims (not worn in pics) (L$50)

The talented Elika Tiramisu has a new release, one of which is the short pixie cut 'Early'.

I hurried off to grab a demo and discovered there is a five colour pack of 'Early' in the VIP group. The group has a L$250 join fee and totally worth it. I don't know how long the hair will stay in the group notices so hurry if you want to grab it.

Impress the neighbours

V day is fast approaching, not my most favourite day I am visiting the anti valentines camp this year.

My lingerie drawer has a layer of dust on it as thick as Brooke Shields eyebrows..(sobs quietly for a second)

Being without the obligatory hot( but thoughtful partner) this valentines shouldn't stop us buying nice lingerie should it? Even if it's just to hang outside on our washing lines to fool the neighbours into thinking we had a risque St Valentines night :)

For all you loved up Ladies treat your fella to a Valentines Day he wont forget and take a trip to Ema's Secret where you will find all manner of smexy loveliness.

I am very taken with the 'Sensual Laced' pants which also include (but not worn in the pic below) a black tshirt and bra. The detailing around the waist is well done and very eye catching.

Key to Success

Lots of hunts and sales still going on around SL.

I checked out the 10$L Golden Key hunt at R.icelli, you are looking for gold keys which are really easy to find.

I took a quick look around and found the items I wanted without too much of a problem. I didn't get everything as some of the items I just didn't like.

 

I have been buying hair AGAIN...it's a kind of sickness I think, I couldn't  resist a hair/hat combo at TDRB or the cute symmetrical bob from Mikan and the Opening  Group Gift from Mach was a no brainer.

All clothes unless listed are from the R.cielli hunt. Earrings also from R.cielli hunt.

Utility Clothing

I have a pretty extensive inventory in SL, maybe small compared to some people's, I have heard  of inventories at 100k.

I try to keep a tight rein on my spending in SL (don't always succeed) and try to get as much wear out of a single item of clothing.

Friends sometimes remark on how inventive I am in utilising items into different styles or looks. It just makes sense to me to get as much usage from an item of clothing.

With this is mind I want to show you an idea I thought of today using the Sn@tch 'Salon Blouse'. The shirt comes in a pack of EIGHT different colours (just using the black here) and cost L$125 in the winter sale.

Some of the items are past hunt gifts or freebies and may no longer be available, I have listed the LM's for the creators stores to check out their availability or maybe find something equally as nice.

52 Weeks of Colour-Black

An easy week I thought Black I have lots and lots of. Wrong! I must have tried 20 different combinations of black none of which was really doing it for me.

Standing defeated on my pose-stand, black swimming before my eyes, a sale notice from Sn@ tch dropped onto my screen and I ran right over.

My eyes zeroed in on the coat and at 50$L a mega bargain. The Winter Sale at Sn@tch runs until February 7

Tp'd home threw on the coat and the little green light over my head started blinking...outfit confirmed!

Once I had the coat, the accessories were easy to put together. Starting with a gorgeous hat that I never have the chance to wear, some lace tights (pantie-hose) a dramatic makeup, over sized stud earrings and the really great watch pendant from the Seasons Hunt.

A closer look at the gorgeous hat.

I had seen the location on the 'Avatars in Motion' blog which fitted perfectly with this weeks colour challenge.

Asia is wearing:

• Coat-Nutcracker Coat (Black)-Sn@tch
• Hat-La rose noire de la Reine-*World's End Garden
• Skin--Claire smokey3-red lips-Lara Hurley Skins
• Tights-Stockings Lace 1 Black-(can't remember where from has MadamG Zagato as Creator)
• Earrings- Found Things (Silver)-Dark Mouse (old gift/hunt prize)
• Pendant- Silver Pocket Watch Necklace-Elate (Seasons Hunt Prize-I think it's finished)

Red next week! I better start shopping now.
