AT SWANK: BLACKROSE, REBELLION, THE ROMANO COLLECTION, VINTAGE TOUCH, CIRCA LIVING

More wonderful things are awaiting you at Swank!

I am wearing the very cute Blackrose Corset Set. This outfit comes with two pieces: a top that has pouffe sleeves and a high-waisted corset skirt. The skirt has a very nice addition in the fabric, which you can see below.  There are several color options that can be purchased separately. There is the Black set, which I am wearing, but there also are the Black/Ice (white), the Black/Pink, the Black/Red, the Black/Sky (blue), and the Leaf set, which is a yellow top with brown skirt. The sets come in the standard five sizes.

Stebi is wearing Rebellion's Revenant jacket. This very finely-crafted jacket comes with a HUD to change both the leather color as well as the shirt design. There are six leather colors and eight shirt options, including no shirt. The jacket comes in small, medium, and large, plus two fitmesh sizes.

Stebi's Urban Leather Pants come from the Romano Collection. There are six different color options to choose from, ranging from black to greys to browns that can be bought separately. Stebi is wearing the brown edition. These unusual pants are available in the standard five sizes, but also come in Slink, Adam, Aesthetic, and TMP.

And, here is that adorable addition to the skirt material I mentioned earlier. I fell in love with this the moment I saw it! I love corsets, anyway, but when I saw that sweet fabric, I was not going anywhere!

Here are the backs of those very nice Revenant jacket and Urban Leather Pants. You can see the detailed work that has gone into the fleur-de-lis pattern on the jacket back and into the studs on the pants pockets.

I am wearing the Veritas Silver Pendant in aquamarine from Vintage Touch. This necklace also is availabe in amethyst, emerald, diamond, ruby, and sardonyx. Vintage Touch is offering a gift this month, the Blue Abalone Ring.

Here, you can see the very skilled detail in the Revenant jacket, including a fleur-de-lis on the upper arm.

Stebi is wearing the Boldt Koren men's necklace from Luminesse.

Circa Living has much to offer shoppers this month. There are the Cafe Volo sets, Tall Table & Stool Sets that are available in nine different color combinations for the table and two chairs. Circa Living also is offering many different neon and chalk signs. The style can be used for either a coffee house or bar setup (or both.)

Each Cafe Volo tall table and stools set has many café quality animations for drinking, eating, chatting, reading, listening to music, including stands and various sits for both male and female. Each stool seat has 16-plus animations and each table has 15 stand animations. In addition, there are automatically rezzing props to go with the animations. And, each table set comes with a floral and shakers centerpiece.

Stebi and I are using the Cafe Volo Cherry/Dk Cocoa set with the Red centerpiece. On the wall directly behind us is the Cafe Volo Neon Coffee Sign. This sign does not have any texture-change options, but the Hot Coffee Cup and Premium Coffee cup signs do have seven texture-change wood colors: teak, hazelnut, hazelnut2, cocoa, cherry, black, and silver. These two signs are just two options from the many Coffee and Cocktail signs available.

A NOTE OF INTEREST: Each time before I post a blog, I check all the landmarks and Marketplace links to make sure they all are accurate.

There is about a week of fantastic shopping time left for the Swank event. Be sure to get all your living needs from the more than 100 designers, all with exclusive items at 300 lindens or less, and even gifts!

AT SWANK: BAKABOO, LUXE PARIS MEN, XEN'S HATS, LUMINESSE, KAYA'S, TM, 3RD EYE PERCEPTIONS, POSESION

This is quite a mix of fantastic items from the wonderful designers at Swank for this month of May.

First, I will start with Bakaboo, who has given us an adorable sunflower and butterfly shift dress, the Spring Mod Dress Sunflowers. This dress also is available in Florals and Lotus designs. All are available in the standard five sizes. For the men, there is a shirt and pants outfit that coordinates with the women's designs.

My pose is from Posesion's exclusive Bulloch set, the Bulloch 1.

This pose is Posesion's Bulloch 8.

Stebi is wearing the Luxe Paris Men Atlantic City outfit, a stylish casual outfit with mint green knit sweater with cowl-style collar and grey jeans. This outfit comes in the five standard sizes for classic avatars, plus it is compatible with Slink and TMP avatars, as well.

To perfectly accessorize the Spring Mod Dress, Xen's Hats has designed a very chic headband with sunflower. This accessory comes in many different colors with different colors for the flower center, including red, pink, orange, and white, all of them exclusive this month.

Luminesse Jewelry has an exclusive design inspired by chandeliers and an old-fashioned style, the partial mesh Siella necklace and earrings set, which comes in two versions: the Aline Gold and the Cerise Gold. I am wearing the Cerise Gold earrings, made with orange jasper and diamonds. The Aline Gold set is made with tanzanite and diamonds. These sets are very intricately designed, as you can see here.

This is what the complete Cerise Gold set looks like. Fantastic detailing on these pieces!

There are also two exclusive necklaces for the gentleman, as well: the tribal design Boldt Koren, which comes in blue, onyx, and silver, and the Boldt Rush, which comes in red, onyx, and silver. Stebi is wearing the Boldt Rush. This is what the stunning Rush looks like in close detail.

Now, on to the details of our picnic!

Kaya's Ray of Sunshine has a lot to offer shoppers this month, all of which can be purchased separately. There are choices of four different Adirondack chairs (gold, red, green, and blue,) four watermelon tables (cobalt, orange, teal, and yellow) that come with a watermelon and dispense watermelon slices, two lanterns (green, red,) a light blue cooler (not shown,) and a mason jar garden light (not shown.)

The mesh rock garden is from TM Creation. This Swank exclusive is the sweet Spring Garden Arrangement. It compliments my land very well.

Here is a closer look at the Spring Garden Arrangement.

And, last but certainly not least, is 3rd Eye Perception's third offering for Swank. Since their debut, they consistently have presented shoppers with excellent, unique, quality items, such as this Slumbering Bear Family. This linked set includes mother bear and two cubs, the rocks with climbing ivy, the sapling, and luxurious grass.

Swank still has about a week and a half for you to buy the exclusives offered by the nearly one hundred designers, all for 300 lindens or less, plus gifts offered by many of the designers. You will find something for all your living needs at Swank!

AT SWANK: BYRNE, MOONDANCE BOUTIQUE, Q-ESSENTIALS

Today, I have new and exclusive designs for Swank.

I will start with Bryne's Noke outfit, a corset top and low-rise asymmetrical skirt that come in the five standard sizes of rigged mesh, materials enabled, and can be purchased in gold, silver, rose, and teal, or as a fatpack. All the colors come in the marble design, like you can see below in gold. Also, each set comes with a necklace.

That lovely Around the World desk comes from Q-Essentials and so does the Around the World map. Now, I really feel like travelling, after seeing this cute suitcase-inspired desk!

Moondance has the Anai jewelry collection to offer. This set comes with necklace, three earring styles, two bracelets, two rings, and a bindi. As always, there are many texture-change options available, as well as the option to change or resize one or all of the pieces at the same time. I have chosen gold metal, black pearls, and quartz stones. All the pieces can be purchased individually or as a complete set, which is the way I suggest.

Below, you can better see the intricate work of the Anai set. I am wearing the Anai Fan Stud earrings.

Here, you can see the many options and pieces in the Anai set.

Now, off to Swank you go!

LUNA BODY ART AT PENUMBRA SS16 FASHION WEEK

Penumbra Spring/Summer 2016 Fashion Week is here, and Luna Body Art has two nail polish sets for Slink on offer: the Art Deco and the Feather, both bold and unique designs. I have chosen to wear the Feather, and I absolutely love them, being a huge admirer of feathers and birds in general. Here you can see several of the Feather options in action.

Here is the HUD so you can see all the options clearly. This is an absolutely fantastic nail polish set!

Now, I also mentioned that Luna has the Art Deco set, as well, and here is what that HUD looks like.

The Spring Summer/Fashion Week is going to continue on through May 22, so you still have time to get these bold and beautiful nail polish sets!

LUNA BODY ART AT THE INSTRUMENTS

The Instruments is open again, and Luna Body Art has more unique designs for Slink hands and feet at this event. This event celebrates the two year anniversary of The Instruments, and many vendors are offering wonderful gifts to the shoppers. Luna Body Art has a really fine gift, which you can see down below.

Today, I am wearing the Luna Body Art B&W set of nail polishes. I like bold and defined, and the B&W set definitely delivers these qualities! I mixed and matched several of the designs to achieve a very unique look.

You can see the B&W HUD here, with all the designs available.

These same designs also are available in a bold fuchsia color, as well, called Pinky. You can see that HUD here.

I mentioned before that Luna has a very nice gift for the anniversary, and you can see that here. Adorable!

The Instruments will have its doors open until May 25 so you can take advantage of these unique nails and gift from Luna Body Art.

AT SWANK: VIPS, MODERN COUTURE, INDULGE TEMPTATION, LUNA BODY ART, SEMI-PRECIOUS, POSESION

Vip's is offering an absolutely stunning gown for this round of Swank, the Swank Dress. This lovely creation fits snugly on the upper portion of the body and has a wide flounce at the bottom. I am wearing the black sequin and bead version since I love sequins and beads, but there are other options, as well. Buyers have the choice of two different HUDs to purchase; one HUD has four texture options, including the one I am wearing, and the other HUD offers eight textures for upper dress and eight options for lower dress, for mix-and-match combinations.

This gown is available in the five standard sizes, as well as fitted, Belleza Venus, Maitreya, and Slink.

The gown also comes with shoes that fit Slink high, Belleza, and Maitreya.

Here is a look at this beautiful gown.

The pose is from Posesion's Swank exclusive Bulloch set, complete with ten poses. This is the Bulloch 8.

Here is the Swank Dress HUD with the four options.

Here is a look at the shoe design.

Here, you can see the other side of the gown, showing the gathered flounce. This pose is the Bulloch 1.

The complimenting Jong headpiece is from Modern Couture Jewelry, who consistently offers fine accessories. The Jong comes in pink or white, as well, and can be bought separately.

The jewelry set is from Indulge Temptation. This is the finely-crafted Fey Berries Set 6, which comes with a HUD to change the metal and two bead textures.

This pose is Bulloch 6.

Here is the Indulge Temptation Fey Berries Set 6 HUD.

To complete the ensemble, I have chosen bracelets from Semi-Precious, part of the Taylor set that contains necklace, earrings, and bracelets. The Taylor is available in eight different color sets, each with metal changes for Antique, Silver and Gold, or there is a Mega-pack available that contains all the color options.

Luna Body Art has two new, unique sets of nail polishes for Slink that are exclusives for Swank this month. These are the Stylish sets. I am wearing a design from the Stylish set, but there is a Stylish Colors set available, as well.

This pose is, again, the Bulloch 6.

Here is what the mega-HUD for the Semi-Precious Taylor set looks like, showing all 24 gem options and the three metal options.

Here are the design options for the Luna Body Art Stylish set.

Swank has nearly a hundred designers bringing you exclusives for all your Second Life needs, all for 300 lindens or less, and many offer gifts to the shoppers, as well. Swank continues until the end of the month, so hurry to take advantage of these exclusive offers!

AT SWANK: PREY, CHOP ZUEY, OCTOBER'S 4 SEASONS

Prey has made another outstanding design for the May round of Swank, the Cleopatra Dress. This dress is very reminiscent of golden days long gone, brought to life now for the wearer to shine in this unique creation. The dress comes with a gold upper body wrap, a gold fringe that fits nicely over the skirt of the dress, and a choice of two lovely feather attachments for the skirt. I am wearing Feather Skirt 1. These pieces can be worn in many combinations. The dress comes in the five standard sizes.

Here, you can see all the pieces more closely, including the body wrap. I really do love the Body Wrap and Fringe.

To make this dress truly outstanding, and matching it impeccably, is Chop Zuey's exclusive BellaTrix jewelry set, which comes with earrings, choker necklace, two bracelets, and a flower ring, all in rutilated quartz cabochons and diamonds set in gold.

Also serving as a wonderful compliment to the Cleopatra Dress and BellaTrix jewelry are the colorful makeups presented by October's 4 Seasons debut appearance. I am wearing the Marley eyeshadow, and the Flossy Eyeshadow Gems on my eyebrows, both from the Flossy Eyeshadow Collection v2 set, and the Noble Cream lipstick from the Noble Lipstick Collection.

Here you can see all the colors available in the Noble collection.

Here, you can see the BellaTrix pieces, the Flossy eyeshadow and Gems, and the Noble Cream lipstick in more detail.

Going back to Chop Zuey's fantastic jewelry set, there is a wonderful BellaTrix HUD that comes with the set. This HUD allows the wearer to choose from among sixteen cabochons, as well as a resizer. Here, you can see the different stones to choose from. In this case, a picture is not worth a thousand words, because the gems are far more beautiful when being worn.

Here is a closer look at the BellaTrix Flower Ring and bracelet.

As we know, Chop Zuey is very generous in the gift department, and this month at Swank is no different. The gift this month is a wonderful ring called Roar Lion Ring. This lovely ring has a lion wrapped around the finger, with diamonds for eyes and all around the band of the ring. This is a unisex ring and can be worn by both men and women. Here is that ring.

Swank will continue through to the end of the month. The many designers are offering exclusive items for all your Second Life needs, and many also offer gifts to the shoppers.

MUSA AT WE LOVE ROLEPLAY

Musa has wonderful creations at We Love Role-play, and I am going to share two of them with you today, the Sia Eyeshadow and the Gem Ring.

The Sia set comes in eight different colors for classic avatars and has an Omega applier, as well. I have chosen the Sia Olive, which compliments green eyes very well!

And, to compliment my entire outfit, I have chosen the Gem Ring in Silver, but the ring also comes in Gold and Dark metals. The Gem Rings come with a HUD that has a very full range of colors for both the main gem and for a surrounding circle of smaller gems. I chose a green gem color as the central gem and chose a light pink gem color for the circle of gems. The ring also has a very nice filigree pattern on the band, as well. Here, you can see the Sia Eyeshadow and the Gem Ring.

Here is a closer look at the Sia Eyeshadow and the Gem Ring.

Here is what the Gem Ring HUD looks like, with all the different color combinations possible.

We Love Role-Play is having a birthday, and many of the designers are offering gifts to the shoppers. Musa is generous in the gift department and has a gift, too, a lovely and unique eyeshadow in bi-colors. Here you can see this fine gift.

MUSA AT THE GACHA GARDEN

I am happy to once again share with you some wonderful creations from Musa.

The Gacha Garden adds a bit of a twist to the game: For every twenty tries at one machine, players get a special gift from that designer, called a Seed of Inspiration. This is a gift that can be transferred just like all the other items won, but it is a special item that will be retired forever once the Gacha Garden closes.

Musa has nineteen items in the Gacha, including chain circlets, Bahiti eyeshadows for classic avatars and Omega appliers, and three rare circlets with an eye plate plus makeup. The circlets come with a hud for resizing, glow, and full bright. Here is what the HUD looks like:

Now, what I have not explained before is that the chains suspended from the circlet actually move! This is a very unique and charming characteristic about these lovely jewelry pieces. Below, I am wearing the Rare 1, the Chain Circlet with Plate Combi/Eyeshadow Bahiti Dusk.

Here is the entire lineup of gacha items from Musa:

And, here is Musa's special Seed of Inspiration gift:

The Gacha Garden lasts until May 22, so hurry to get your unique items and Seed of Inspiration gifts!

Of course, Musa has many fine items in the main store, as well.
