Gitana Rigged Mesh Corset

I have two new outfit types…. and one I think is confusing folks a little even though I do label the box, I think I’m going to have to add an extra label or two.  It’s a rigged mesh corset.  The great thing about mesh is that it moves with the body.  This corset is so neat.  It attaches to the hand because the corset itself is already rigged to the SL avatar, so it doesn’t matter which attachment point it is on really… you could change it to anything and it will still sit on the correct spot.

Secondly, the viewer.  If you’re not using a viewer that can see mesh like the LL viewer or something like Firestorm then all you are going to see is a bunch of funky textured balls and no corset.  I know for a fact that viewer issues is one of the big reasons why mesh hasn’t been a huge BOOM on the grid yet.  People don’t want to switch, they like their Phoenix, they like their _insert viewer name here_.  To be entirely honest I don’t even really use a mesh enabled viewer all the time.  I’ve worked with mesh some with a couple outfits and things but when it comes down to it I retreat back to Phoenix for ‘everyday’ use.  The corset looks very cool, and I have one in the Lucky Chair even because I thought it’d be a nice lil present.

The corset is named Gitana and it comes in some very harvesty autumn like colors along with a couple others.  Purple, Red and White, Red and Black, White and black, Pumpkin, Pumpkin Plaid,  and the one in the lucky chair is Harvest Plaid.  Each corset comes with alpha layer to hide the parts that aren’t supposed to show which reminds me – not EVERYONE will be able to wear this outfit happily.

One thing about rigged mesh clothing is that it can come one size fits ‘most’, and that’s what we have here.  I only have the corset in one size unfortunately so what that means is there is a DEMO for you to try it out beforehand to see if it will fit your avatar the way you like.

The second outfit that I did up is a very stringy lil thing.  Not a whole lot to it, which of course shouldn’t be a surprise for anyone who has known me too long.  I like to show off the body often enough, a new set of silks called Yeira.  The silks come with skirts, shoulder drape for the back, top & bottom, bracelets, armbands, and anklets.  It covers everything but has lines drawn across the body to show off the hips, belly and breast quite nicely I think.  Coming in four different colors… Red, Black, Silver, and Purple.  The RED is in the Lucky Chairs for now even!  Very nice hmm?

Last but not least I redid a chore.  The Butter Churn has been one of those favorite little things people like to pick up.

Churning Butter Workset

In the slow but steady evolution of my chore line I added some accessories, redid the permissions, and added an extra animation.  I have been rounding out and making the chores a little more for different reasons, partially if you’re going to spend your hard earned lindens you should feel like you’re getting a little something extra in some ways.

I am going to wrap this up for now… I have to get going!  The day is just about to get started and I don’t want to run late.  Talk to you soooooon I promise!  Have a great week.

So I’m going to try to go over some of the latest and greatest without being too drawn out but I’m not sure if I can *laughs*

·!¦[·       SWEET SIMPLICITY - NEW OUTFIT      ·]¦!·

I got into the creative spirit and decided to work on a very simple silk type outfit.  Semi-transparent crop top, and skirts float around the girl giving her a feminine appeal without going over the top.  None too ragged they can be worn whenever, accented with an included belly jewel… I just love showing off the belly.  Available in three colors:  Rose, Golden, and Blue along with a special Sage color in the lucky chairs.

·!¦[·       PHYSICIANS OUTPOST       ·]¦!·

For AGES folks have been asking me if I would ever consider doing some physician or healer type things.  I didn’t get around to it but then very recently I was asked again if I’d consider making up a small shed or shack thing to go along with the rest that has become something of a line without it meaning to become one.  I started with the bakers things and it just…. boom, kept going.  Now we have another one!  A Physicians Outpost!  Rather rugged, a small building outfitted and accessorized.

Created a whole new build with shack, desk, examination table, recovery cot… accessories, wash basin.  It all looks really great together and is set up at the moment near the landing.

·!¦[·       TO MARKET, TO MARKET  - PULL CARTS FOR YOUR RP        ·]¦!·

Ever want to role-play out going or coming from the market?  Have a garden but wanted to bring along your tools?  Well I decided to start a new line of pull carts so you can enhance your role-play.  Each one works like an AO with walking and standing animations so you just wear it from your inventory.  Each comes with filled and empty versions of the cart.

╚»╚» CHALLENGE!!! «╝«╝

I’m going to give those few who actually read this far down an opportunity.  I am wanting to create a few different types of this sort of thing, and I have plans for other variations however… I can’t __always__ come up with everything, I get tired… yanno?  Anyhow… Here’s the challenge:

Send me a notecard with your ideas for what might make up a good something to be pulling around in a cart (name it something like… Challenge; Pull Cart) and if I use the idea then you will get a set for  — FREE!!! –

I finally got the landscaping, outdoor and seasonal area around a little bit better.  At the very least, well enough that I’m willing to mention it.  It will go through final tweaks and things will be added but if you are curious you can take a quick look.  I’m going to be placing outdoor furniture and things over here along with plants as I make them.

I’ll put sale info in a new post.

Done in 4 color combinations, 3 of them a regular sale type item and the fourth is going to be a part of the Twisted Krissmuss stuff I have out.  Softer, flowing, on the delicate side and wintery these come with a bra top, panties, chest dangle, armbands, bracelets, skirts, and a tattoo to wind down over the left side of the body.

I whipped together the cutest little thing.  Now a lot of people have their own versions of something like this so you can’t blame me right??  It’s just so cute though!

Santa’s lil Helper, complete with boots and backpack stuffed full of everything you need!  Grandma’s cookies recipe book, tree, ornaments, and the cutest lil guy sitting on top among other things.  Take a peek!  This one is marked at only 100L as part of the Twisted Krissmuss event.

HUNTS!!  The POE hunt is still going, along with the other two that I’m in (Candy Cane 2, and the Present/Coal) BUT a new one started just today!!

The Gothmas by Gaslight Hunt, so there’s a silver bell hanging around my store just waiting for you to find it if you feel so inclined to try your hand at it.  I almost feel naked, only have one hunt coming up in January.  Put in apps to a couple around Feb but not sure if I’ve got any scheduled.  Hmm, suppose if I don’t then I -could- always maybe plan on doing a hunt here at the sim just for Roawenwood.  Think that is a good idea?

As part of the holiday season I’m also leaving a small gift for all of you.  A Yule log for those inclined to pick one up…. I was doing the Wheel of the Year hunts but I don’t think they did one for Yule, that doesn’t mean I didn’t feel like leaving a gift.  It’s down near the Twisted Krissmuss display at the base of the one tree.

I’ve been getting a lot done and will have more this weekend I think.  Till then!

This week saw the release of a delicate silk with sculptured draped top.  The set includes nipple rings, two different draped tops (one with nipple ring and one without), skirts, leg band and arm bands.

Offered with different color options, some with gold metals bands delicately sweeping around the hips and some with silver.  I tried offering it in a few different varieties since I know I can get stuck on silver a lot… but these looked pretty good with gold too.

I also released a new chore… well sort of new.  An old new chore.  I redid my sweeping chore, new sculptured broom and the set is less primmy, adding up to only 3.  I made an attachment like before too so it can be worn anywhere.  This one has a smoother animation, sweeping and then bending to scrub at a particularly nasty spot.  It can be tested and tried out down at the Five Blades location.

Most of this week I’ve been working on trying to come up with a build to use as a temporary location while I work on the main sim.  It’s funny… I have this colossal sized building that is rather overwhelming to house my stuff…. and it almost seems like it is a little bit over the top considering it probably will only be used temporarily.  Ah well.

I hope ya’ll enjoy, and since I got that build kinda going…. the store will probably be moved to a temp location in the sky soon.  I just need to move things up there so that the bulk of inventory is left available.  I hope ya’ll are having an awesome weekend!

Come, gentle Spring! ethereal Mildness! come.
–James Thomson

Spring time is finally beginning to shine bright sunlight into my life as the flowers begin to peek their way up through the soil.  The breezes still have that nip to the air even as you raise your face up to the sun to feel its warmth as the greyness begins to retreat… snow melted away and the earth returns to a green carpet of color.

This week saw the release of a new set of silks.  Something with a bold splash of color and the softness of flowers adorning the belts and accessories.  I had the idea for these rolling around a little bit and while they aren’t super fancy or ornate they are not your typical set of silks.  A soft glow surrounds the skirts as you move in gentle rhythm to music as you dance or as you fly through the air.  I thought they’d make a great addition especially during the spring season when everyone is ready for a bit of color and getting away from the heavier clothes.  Available in four different colors… purple, green, pink, and blue.

Honestly I really like these… bold, yet feminine I can see a forest Fae skipping through the woods all the way to the Gorean kajira writhing in the sands for her owner.  I haven’t really done a set of dancing type silks in awhile so these are a little refreshing to create.  Lately I have been working a lot on things for the outdoors… it’s been really good for me, getting me out of those gray winter time blues that can effect everyone as the seasons shift.

There’s been some submissions for the photo contest!!  I’m impressed and looking forward to see what else people come up with or decide to post.  It’s so much fun, I check the pool every once in awhile hoping to see something new.  There’s still a lot of time left because I’m leaving it open to submit photos through April 14th.

I know it takes time to be creative, to get a good picture and then fix it up if you’re of a mind to.  I really hope that people are having fun with it because that really is the whole point to it anyhow.

Remember, you can have more than one entry… I don’t mind, I’m just tickled to see what is put up.

The pieces included are a top on the undershirt and shirt layers, prim skirts, bangle bracelets, armbands, choker, nipple rings, and hair ornament.

Small post, it’s a little late and I’m getting tired…. but wanted to get this all together before nodding off to sleep.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Anyhow…. onwards!

This week a new outfit was released.  Aptly named “Flirty” this little number has tons of wear options.  It includes 4 different prim skirts… beaded, plain, with and without a pouch or beads… then you have the two different tops, naughty or nice… then you have a camisk version with a waist sash, also in naughty or nice.  Not stopping there either there is a set of beads for the hip if you don’t want to wear a skirt… beads for the belly, there’s nipple rings if you don’t want to wear a top… and there’s the waist sash by itself so you can wear it with a skirt or without.  Like I said… TONS of ways to wear this outfit so you can be as naughty or as nice as you wanna be!  Available in 6 colors you can pick it up on Xstreet or at my in world locations.

I also released a whole slew of hair flowers.  These were done awhile ago and left floating around my inventory…. there are 21 different shades or patterns of flowers so there is something pretty much for everyone, along with the fat pack of course.  They’re priced reasonably at 25L each… the fat pack is sharply discounted if you want to have them all.  They really do look nice too, I was in a mood one day and fiddled till I came up with it.

Then if that wasn’t enough I decided to release 3 brand new pieces for your dungeon, kennel or just if you have a craving to tie someone up.  They’re lockguard compatible and come with their own set of cuffs/collar so you can torment anyone even if they don’t have the accessories.  They’re done in rich dark texturing with really awesome accents… rusty metal rings and all.

That wraps up the new items that were put out for sale but then I put out two new items for the Lucky Chairs…. because I’m in a mood I’m going to give them their own lil post after this one.

Have a great weekend!!

Anyhow!!

Brand new and outta the workshop is the Wicked Fantasy set… only available in the lucky chairs you can win your way into this sexy little number if you want to.  With two different ragged shirts, ragged prim skirts, two different sets of arm wraps, one with netting… one without, and then two different sets of leg wraps, one with and then without the netting you can be sure you won’t feel like you’re compromising with this one.  It was supposed to start out as a Halloween, wicked witch kind of ensemble but morphed into its current form.  Sometimes it is easier to let things go the way they go without trying too hard… so this is what I came up with.  It should work alright in different settings… was thinking fantasy as well as Gorean.  Could picture a dark elf wearin something like that hmm?  *chuckles*

I also created a cute little set of flats with a wee lil pumpkin patch along the toe.  Vines and pumpkins decorate a mossy/olive green leather flat.  Also available in the lucky chair.

I got a new discount camisk out, and placed out the Apple Bob!  I threw at least four different camisks in there, a shirt for the guys, a set of sandals for the guys, one of the kirtle/camisk sets, think I even threw a decoration for autumn in there or two for something different… so there’s a lot to try your luck at if you’re feelin like sticking around a bit.

I hope ya’ll have fun with it.  Talk soon!

When I was making this up, that name stood out for me and stuck.  Only available in four colors because I didn’t want to dilute the intent behind the set.  I created it to be more regal, something that even though it is not overtly fancy it stands out as something more.  On a Gorean note the thing that popped out at me was the outfits of the girls that accompanied the Lady Sabina in Slave Girl of Gor before she was captured.  Girls in long flowing white gowns, obviously high slaves, with gold jewelry accompanying the outfit, so that is my Gorean reference… I won’t paste a quote, it isn’t that hard to find.  *winks*

The set has many many ways to wear it.  It has a solid camisk top with short or long prims to wear with it, a sheer camisk top with short prims, both tops are adorned with gold threading and beads holding it together… There are two different types of added decorated hip belts, one with a golden drape, and one without.  Mix and match them with the dress prims to create different looks.  The set also includes golden leg wraps, panties for those so inclined, sculptured spiral armbands, sculptured bracelets, and an intricate set of gold earrings.  Very versatile, I believe this set is wonderful for most fantasy role play really and I love it.  Available in Stunning Black , Deep Purple , Dark Red , Classic White.

First off I have a new set of silks.  Last week I released the Midice Kirtle Set, this week I’m releasing the sister outfit to it for ya’ll that don’t want to wear a kirtle.  The set is done in the same eye popping colors that the kirtle is done in, a wee bit worn… lots of nice texture to the top and the skirts.  Ropes wrap around the hips and the belly with a few different ways to wear them.  You can wear them with the included belly ropes that have the delicate talendar blossoms decorating them, or you can wear them without… just the ropes around the hips.  Perfect for everyday wear or for when you are trying to look a little summery.  Included with it is the rope choker with a blossom on it, and the hair flower… I do love the way the coloring turned out on all of them… even the colors I generally don’t care for look superb.  Available reasonably priced for only 295L just like the kirtle set I don’t think I set them too far out of reach for anyone who is looking for a bright vibrant new outfit.

The special edition Anysia silks are out of the lucky chairs, if you missed them I’m really sorry… if you’re one of those who got them… congrats!  I won’t be offering them in the store for sale so you might be able to get away with being a wee bit unique. *chuckles*

I’ve added two new outfits for at least the month of August to the lucky chairs in their place.  I’m offering up a special edition color of the Midice kirtle set, and silks set.  These will also not be sold in the store so if you want them then you have to catch them in the chairs.  The color is a deep blueish color, Midnight.  They have everything that the ones are for sale including the flowers, belts and options so you aren’t getting a substandard freebie.

Tomorrow kicks off the beginning of the Fall Frenzy (Fall Fun?  The name changed I think lol)  Grid Hunt but I’m lettin ya’ll in on a little secret… I set out and have my item up for grabs already so you can come down and get it if you want before the ‘official’ start of the hunt.  It’s only a day early right?  No harm done.  *winks*  Anyhow… it’s not just another outfit or something for the ladies.  It’s a fun item for couples that can be used for autumn decor, farms, rustic, or something along those lines.  It has 5 different couples animations sets…. this is a really nice lil item.  I’m not going to cheat and post a picture or tell you what it is.  If you wanna see you gonna have to come and get it!!  Just look for the little leaf and pick it up for 0L$.

I have a few hunts coming up… The Gorean Grid Hunt starts soon, and there’s a couples hunt that is coming up too within the next month that I’m a part of.  Will write up little notes as they approach.

I changed the Lucky Tribe Redemption prize for a massage table instead of the kirtle set that has been in there for awhile now if you are someone who plays that… don’t forget that all of my chairs reward kudos if you need them.
