Special Operations Executive

A new round of Whimsical is here and =Zenith= has created the very sexy 'Secret Agent' gacha collection. There are 3 rare jackets to collection - khaki, black and pink. There are also 20 matching common accessories, including shorts, boots, hats, ties, bra tops, gloves and pistols. It's all designed to fit Maitreya Lara mesh body. 

The jacket 'gun arm' is not rigged to your arm, it's fixed in place. This of course means you'll have to alpha your arm but the awesome element to this is that your AO or dance moves don't cause you to whack your friends (or nearby strangers) in the face unexpectedly with a gun - you'll keep your cool and sexy image intact ;)

I'm loving this new hair style by .Shi, it's at the current round of The Crossroads. It's an edgy style, with a cool cut and long wispy wind-blown sections.

If I Only Had a Heart

Enchantment is open!! Follow the yellow brick road to Oz to find some magical creations in this HUGE round. 

Azoury have created this beautiful jewelled Axe, for those who like a little bit of luxury with their weapons ;)

I accessorised by 'tin girl' look with this charming necklace by Snowpaws. There are 2 versions included in the pack.

The mechanical heart tattoo by Nanika is also wonderfully in theme and there are silver and gold ink versions available.

There is no hunt this round, but be sure to check out all the amazing gifts from creators at their stalls!

In creating my tin look, I used Pink Fuel's Drow skin in Stone. The Drow skins were recently updated with a whole bunch of appliers for mesh heads and bodies, including the Catwa and Maitreya appliers I'm using. I was super happy to see it worked so well with the new Catwa Destiny head too, which is def my fave head of the moment XD

follow the yellow brick road....

A new round of Enchantment opens this weekend....

It's time to follow the yellow brick road because we've all gone to Oz!

There are lots (and lots) of wonderful Second Life creators taking part in this event, with many adorable, wicked and beautiful creations in the theme of 'The  Wizard of Oz'. I love this cute Dorothy-styled dress by *COCO*. There are versions for SLink and Maitreya mesh bodies, the *COCO* FashionDoll, MyDollKit Fitted doll and new Kid doll. 

This new hair-style by TUKINOWAGUMA really helped in creating my Dolly Dorothy look and I set her off following the yellow brick road made by FDD Stories! There are different types of road sections included in the pack to get the layout you need. 

Event opens 12 Noon 13th August!

Panda

Well, OK so not really a panda... but I was feeling inspired by this cute new panda tattoo by White Widow and the sexy strap on bear ears by May's Soul. 

The tattoo has awesome design both front and back, as well as cute lil' panda's on the arms too! There are all sorts of appliers included, in 3 fades. 

The May's Soul 'Le Jolie Mask' is available is bunny and bear versions, each available in black, pink and white. It's unrigged and mod to fit to your head shape and you can pick it up at the current round of Totally Top Shelf. 

I absolutely adore Catwa's new 'Destiny' mesh head, which you'll find at the Mesh Body Addicts event. The basic head is just 900L and then you can purchase each add-on pack separately or a fatpack for 4150L for all animation options. I'm feeling she is totally me XD

Also, Glam Affair released Calliope/Cassiopea skin appliers for Catwa heads at this event and I think this applier looks so beautiful on Destiny! (some confusion on name sorry, poster says one and actual applier says the other! It's all the same one)

In this pic I'm also wearing new Zibska lipgloss applier 'Beatie' which is available at the current round of Uber. The pack includes 15 soft pastel shades for Catwa, Lelutka, Omega, TMP & System heads.

Working Girls

I just LOVE the new mech leg by Toast. I'm generally a fan of various mechanical limbs but this one really is killer! The main leg part is rigged but the ankle and thigh fittings are mod so you can get a real snug fit to your avatar's body. The fact you still use your own foot and so can wear shoes is really cool. Also, it comes with a bunch of texture options via HUD. Oh and it's materials enabled too!
The hair is newish by Lelutka... it was from Hair Fair but should now be in store! Perfect when you really want one of those big hair days ;)
The rest of the look is made up of old faves, especially love this 'killer queen' dress by Dead Dollz, which frequently finds its way out of my inventory.
