*note to self: never post right after the Monster Truck commercial comes on*

For this weeks new releases, I have kinda shifted gears. Sitting, daydreaming about the warmer days to come. So this week I bring you PANTS!! *lol*

Our first set up is “Lipsmackers”. Yes, I know, wierd name, but late at nigth strange things creep into the brain. I was hunting for a name for these wen I saw my daughters Lipslossy-typie-stuff. It had “bright” colors and fruity names. So, we now have these. *laffs*  6 colors… 7 with the Relay only version :) Each Set is 100L and currently at The Oak Tree Shoppes location.

There are 2 bonus colors for this collection. BubbleGum, which is a Dollarbie, and Grapelicious, which is a Relay Special!  (Both shown below)

Lipsmackers ~ BubbleGum

Relay for Life ~ Lipsmackers ~ Grapelicious

Also out this week is *our* new Mix & Match set : Lacie Daiz!

This fun and frilly set was inspired by my can’t wait additude for that first ice cream cone of the year! Each Top sells for 25L and the 6 pack of Capri pants is 100L. I had a woot doing these.  (only adding a couple pics)

Evening Everyone… I’m just to jazzed not to post. *lol* I finished the renovations on the Oak Tree Shoppes Location. *woot!* The new building is by Damania, I love it! Omg the room and windows. I have a blast just setting stuff out. I still have the Survery out for the Free Dress and I added a Discount Area. Everything is roughly 50L to 200 (sets etc.). The 2nd Floor is for the kids clothing and such, but there is sooooo much room up there it’s gonna take weeks to get it looking “worn in”. Anyone… some pics.

 I’m the Small Dot by the Woot! *laffs* (shameless self-promotion… that is Flamingo Fantasy in the window)

Taking a Break

 With more floor space I was able to add Displays rather then just sticking stuff to the walls. (damn I love this building!)

OMG the Back View

Again… Little Dot… ME. *laffs* I’m on the “Parent patio”. The view of sunset is amazing.

Well… time to jump back into the workshop (not shown do to it’s a mess and I’m a slob.)

Take care everyone!!! If you want to stop by and say Hi you can find me @ http://slurl.com/secondlife/Zebranky/32/178/22 (Check out the other local shops too… some awesome stuff around :)

Ears: Freebies / Reve

Jewelery: Hearts & Diamonds / ~flirt~

Pose: Now Lean Back / [LAP]

Cute as heel shoulder friends : Talking Relay Buddy Bears/ EC&M Apparel! (Relay vendor out front)

Anywho…lol.

I was finally about to get the 2 Dresses for the Flamingo Challenge set out. OMG to fun! Thank you to the crew at The Cafe Society for thinking this one up! Now here are some de-tails… *snorts* get it? Flamingo… Tails… ok ok… it was groaner even for me.

 The 3 layer Flexi-Prim Skirt comes lined with light pink sheer lining and has been scripted to allow a more realistic look when sitting. 

The Bustle (or Tail Section) is designed to resemble wings folded back against the body of this bird shaped number. The Center of the Tail Section is done with Sculpties, as are the Sleeve sections that are trimmed out with sheer, shimmering fabric.

The Bodice displays a line of Garnet Gems & extends to form a “Unitard” under the gown. The back is also “Buttoned” with matching Gems. The Bodice can be worn alone with the stockings and Garter for a rather sexy little look.

Extras include an adourable Flamingo Shaped Hat that loves to keep you company (tho it tends to speak it’s mind), Beaded choker of Rose Quartz & Garnet, Sheer fingerless Gloves, & a working parasol crafted from the fabric of the dress, feathers of the Tail Section, Rose quartz handle & shaft, and topped off with a decorative Flamingo Head.

The Child’s Version : Little Flmaingo Dream is very much like the Adult version with a few subtle changes. The Cut of the Bodice is a straight cut rather than the mellow low dip effect and does not have the Open-shoulder look  of the adult version. This version also comes with Tights instead of nylons and garter.

Both Version Feature the Blinking, Talking Flamingo Hat that I have grown to love so much. I did modify the Child’s version just a bit to make this dear bird a tad more polite. *lol* You can have your Head pet whisper, shout, or talk on channel 11 if you wish.

 Happy Equinox Everyone!!!! Many furry bunnies to you and yours!

Just some fast updates and then back to the Easter Weekend Festivities.

First… I was finally able to find a fun, funky way to work some teddybears into the Relay theme. Please meet the “Talking Relay Buddy Bears”! These cute little guys come as a team of 3 who hold and support each other while they keep you company. (Worn on shoulder).  Scripted with 4-5 preset phrases, they speak up about Relay For Life! Each Bear has his own hooded sweatshirt with a saying on it. “Celebrate, Remember, & Fight Back” look forward to hanging out with you! Get yours Now at our Oak Tree shops Location … Only 50L a set. :)

Gooooo Relay!!!!

 Second… :)

A couple of weeks back, the crew at The Cafe Society posted a Design Challenge.   http://thecafesociety.wordpress.com/

The Theme? Flamingos! Yuppers… the tall, funny, pink fluffy birds! I was quick to jump on this chance if only to see what I could come up with. I have to tell you… this was a total Riot! The Outfits will be set out on March 23th at Our Oak Tree Location.

This was definately a project that grew on me. What started out as a nightmare in pink evolved into what you see below. *lol* (I joke, but I have come to love this number.) More info to come. :) For now I will leave you with some pics.

Greetings and Namaste Everyone! Wow, What a busy week it’s been! So much coming up, so many places to go. After the release of Chantress this Monday, I was a bit stuck for what to put out next. So off into my textures I went and … Ever have a day where you see something you tossed aside and then went… heyyyyyyyyyyy… I wonder… lol. So, after a bit of Inspiration (ok ok… I was listening to John Tesh), a lot of time, and a goal in mind, I sat back and went, ” Ok Now that I just love!”

So, as with most stuff, I’m stuck again! LOL. I have this done in 5 colors and white, but I have NO NAME!!!! I’m drawing a total blank right now. *laffs* That being said, I guess release is on hold till I come up with one. (pssstttt, I have a Child’s version & matching bear done already)

Feedback is welcome! I have also set out a Survey at the Main shop @ http://slurl.com/secondlife/Zebranky/32/178/22 and look forward to reading what you guys think. (There might be a free dress in it. *chuckles*)

Piece 4 Released Today!

March 5, 2008

Greetings and Namaste All. *smiles*

Piece 4 in the Louvre Collection is Van Gogh’s The Yellow House at Arles. I feel in love with the bright blues and yellows in this piece. The Dress keyhole top is painted in blue oils, Gloves and Sash are crafted from satins in a varied shade of yellow, with an sheer underskirt lining in a rich blue to accent the “Sky” within the painting while you walk or more.

The Skirt is made up of 2 layers, Over and under. The upper layer is approx. 26 panels each adjusted to create a full 360 view of this famous painting. The matching purse (not shown in pic) is done much the same way in that the Yellow house repeats around the bag to form a unique look. We hope you enjoy!

All released dresses can be viewed @ http://slurl.com/secondlife/Zebranky/32/178/22 on the far right wall as you enter.

Yellow House at Arles

    I want to thank everyone who was sooo patient with me over the past few months. Now that I am back a lot more, I have been able to get the Water Lilies Dress completed and out as so many of you have asked for. *smiles* I really hope you like!

The Bodice is 2 layers with a pink undershirt being optional. The top layer is a shirt layer and laces up the front. Gloves, Ribbon w/ Bow, and Skirt lining layer are a matching pink to the undershirt to help further bring out this wonderful accent color pulled from within the lower lilies in this painting.

The Parasol (not shown) opens and closes on touch.

So without Further Ado…. I give you Piece 3 in the Louvre Collection!
