Boogie Shoes

Don't you just love it when you find a pair of shoes that make you want to dress up and go dancing?


Dress - Ducknipple - Squeeze - Platinum :. - $10L (Platinum Hunt)Bracelets - ~SIGMA~Jewels/Sani bangles (charcoal) - $10L (Platinum Hunt)Shoes - MIEL MOLE SHOES (cocoa color) - $425LSkin - :: DUTCH TOUCH :: ::JoLIe:: CARAMEL - Dark - $500L
Miel's latest release has got to be one of the most fun styles to hit the grid in a while. Simple, sleek, ankle-high peeptoe booties - totally covered in sequins! :O The heels make you feel a mile high & the texture seems to shimmer and sparkle. Plus - they're color change! You get a whopping eight different color options to fit heaps of outfits. Sexy enough to wear with your skimpy party dress, hot enough to rock with some jeans. Take me dancing! >:O
The fabulous Wrenja helped me out with my discoball fantasy. She's kickin' these boots in the two pictures below, in both Sky and Blush color options. Oh lord, Shoe Fair might just be giving me a shoe fetish :o.....

If that's not enough sparkle for you, the Platinum Hunt is in full swing right right now. Prizes are $10L each and there are just over 100 shops participating. Loads of fabulous items for a total bargain. I'm wearing the dress from Ducknipple and the bangles from Sigma in the top picture.
Because I live under a rock most of the time, I did not realize that this event was organized by the same group who brought you both the Black & Blue Fair & the Summer of Love Fair - both fashion/mental health awareness events. So when I opened the hunt boxes and found notecards about PTSD and anorexia, with absolutely no other context for them, I have to admit I was rather startled! XD So if you're oblivious like me and wondering why a designer might be presenting you with a lovely skin and also a statistic on suicide, that's why.

Last, but certainly not least, I need to mention the Dutch Touch skin sale! Oh designers are totally conspiring to take all my money these days. Too many gorgeously wonderful things to buy! I've got my new favorite skin on in the top picture - now 50% off the regular price! Most of the skins are marked down, even certain fatpacks are being offered for a special discount. Take advantage! Iki's skins are among the best and she rarely does sales, so go nuts and buy a bunch! :O

Empty Your Wallet & Love It!

This week your $50L can do a hell of a lot more than you ever imagined.



Jacket - {SMS} Another Vintage Jacket Red for Red Cross - $50L
Skin - :: DUTCH TOUCH ::MaUVe:: Cream - Vamp - $500L
Pose - esme for (pda) Break In Case Of Anything - $100L (Fatpack)

Last night Barb posted a plurk asking people if they wanted to participate in a Red Cross fundraising event in SL. 24 hours and dozens of contributors later, more than $200,000L has been raised. To up the stakes even more, many of today's $50L Friday designers have pledged the proceeds from at least one of their items. In addition, there is an entire skybox filled with all kinds of exclusive goodies. And every single last little Linden dollar is going directly to the Red Cross! You have a chance to make your money do something really wonderful, so SHOP YOUR BALLS OFF!



Top - ~*RunoRuno*~ Wrap Tank - $50L
Hair - [Aden] Autumn (Black) - $50L
Jewelry - *Ticky Tacky* Save a Prayer Jewelry Set - Red - $260L

Let's get to the fashion! I'm totally digging the jacket in the top picture, from So Many Styles. It's really wonderfully crafted. You can purchase this right at the shop. The RunoRuno top in the 2nd picture can be found at the Red Cross skybox. Runo's fluid and organic shapes never cease to impress. It's a steal for $50L. For a bit more than that you can grab the special edition jewelry set I made for this event, from my shop *Ticky Tacky*. It's packed with options and it's pretty badass, so don't miss it! The hair is from the sale at the new Aden satellite shop at Starlust. All the hair is $50L, and this style features a tight little bun with a texture changing headscarf.



Top - *Fishy Strawberry* Wings Tee - Red - $50L
Skin - :: DUTCH TOUCH ::MaUVe:: Cream - Xtrema - $500L
Hair - Clawtooth: Let's Get Married (Valentine) - $50L
Pose - [LAP] - Slex-Cute Charlotte - $50L (Fatpack)

Clawtooth by Clawtooth has been rocking my world a little too much lately and this flaming red flip 'do leaves me a little breathless. The fact that this is CBC's Red Cross item only makes me love it more. Find it at the shop. Fishy Strawberry's Red Cross item also kicks some major ass. This perfect red, 3/4-sleeve top has adorable angel wing decals on the back. This is available at the Red Cross skybox. The skins used in this post are from the ongoing sale at Dutch Touch. I've rhapsodized about these before. No clue when the sale might end, so get them while you can. The poses in this post come from Long Awkward Pose and Penny Dreadful Arcade. The PDA set can be found up in the Red Cross skybox, along with loads of other wonderful things you need to go buy right now! :D

Okay - first off, you've probably picked this up already, but in case you haven't, the assymetrical bodysuit is the new in-store gift from the new Ohmai shop on Starlust. It's only $1L and, as you can see, pretty darn versatile. I layered it here under the gift from League. The skirt and gloves set are available both through the Subscribe-o-Matic and in store, and it's an apology for missing out on $50L Friday this week. Not sure how long it will be available, so be sure to get it while you can. That bodysuit looks pretty slammin' with the latest gift from Pig, too. You can find this in the I Heart the Starlust Group notices. I love this sweater so much, I want it in RL. It's my new favorite thing.

All of the pics in this post feature another one of those incredible sale skins from Dutch Touch. Everytime I wear one, I want to go back and buy more. If you can spot them, my avatar is also sporting the latest in-store gift set of eyes from Poetic Colors. They're a stunning deep blue & come with optional lightening prims. All of the poses used today come from Striking Poses. This shop also sent out a group gift today - a set of 3 new poses (not pictured). You can find the set still available in the Subscribe-o-Matic group History.

The latest Cioccolata/Albero Mall Fair is on, and, if you haven't been yet, you're looking for the gumball machines all around the center, both upstairs & downstairs at Cioccolata. Lots of different shops have filled up each machine with a bundle of fabulously fun prizes. Simply pay each machine its asking price (typically $10-35L) & it randomly delivers you a prize. Yes, you can get doubles. But, since most everything is set to no copy/trans okay, you can trade your extras or pass them on to friends as gifts! The variety & quality are truly excellent. You can find such great stuff for cheap cheap cheap! Just be careful - those machines are addictive! XD

The other bit of awesomeness in this post is the Group Gift skins set from Dutch Touch. Two beautifully made skins were passed out to the Subscribe-o-Matic Group today in the Caramel skin tone.

Today is a day of many Lucky Chairs. No joke. We have three to gab about in this post. First off, Dutch Touch has a lucky chair out, with FOUR outfits in it! Need I say more? Next up, you need to run by Slow Kitchen, and don't AFK, or you'll miss out on the THREE adorable AFK prop tools sitting in the chair waiting for you to use them! Lastly, and most certainly not least, go to Love Soul, everyone's favorite, and plop down on the new toilet chair, or the regular one, for some of the new, sweet goods.

From Dutch Touch!

In the LC at LoveSoul, you'll also find cow pumps (from new years) and bright new nails!

AND, Inclinations informed me, the Picks Reward was also updates yesterday. Go, enjoy.

In the first, and last photos, the poses used are from On The Cover, my favorite store to shamelessly promote, as I adore the owner to pieces (Even if she spites me in the last photo, haha!) Anyways, the first pose is her Charlies Angles set, a classic to recreate. The latter pose is her four-girl The Hill pose set, and oldy, but a goody! Go, indulge yourself in some On The Cover poses!
