Just More to Love!

One of my customers asked me if I would ever consider making poses for the larger shapes in SL. I thought it was a great idea, so I began scouring the net for some great pics of plus-sized celebs. This week I chose Camryn Manheim. She's such a beauty and so lively, not to mention the girl can strike a mean pose. ;)

These 10 poses will flatter any fuller figure from fun to sexy to glam. Enjoy! :)

A Little More Teese...

Before I "teese" you, I want to show you my latest couples pose that is now available! It's based on a famous Calvin Klein ad and I'm really happy with how it turned out. This pose really captures the smoldering heat between lovers.

You and your special someone should go take it for a test drive. ;)



Now, after popular demand, I am bringing some more Dita Von Teese poses into SL. I really don't need to say much about Dita. Her photos do all the talking. These poses are not for the meek and mild. If you think you are daring enough, go hop on the pose stand and get "teesed". ;)

Why Should You Join the Striking Poses Update Group?

I'm glad you asked! I love all my customers and most especially my group members. They are the ones who are loyal, uplifting and willing to read through all my new releases posts. :D So as a way of giving some love back, I'm about to turn my group up a notch. I'm going to be implementing some cool fun programs.

1. Weekly Drawing--Each and every time I release new pose packs, I'm going to randomly draw 3 names from my group to send a pose pack to. I will announce the winners at the same time I announce the new releases. Yay!! :D

2. Customer Appreciation Plan--Each month, I will tally up how much each person has spent in my shops. The person who has spent the most will receive my next 3 new release pose packs absolutely free! W00T! But if the biggest spender is not a member of the group, the prize will be forfeited. Don't let that happen...JOIN!

3. Random Giveaways--I love gifting people. So I'm going to periodically pick a few people in my group to shower some prezzies on. This will be totally random. Just whenever I feel like it and to whoever I feel like it. :D

4. Sneak Peeks and Announcements--You'll be the first to know and see the things I'm working on. I *always* give my group members first notice of new releases so they will have a chance to come browse before the big FashCon crowd comes. :)

5. Exclusive Group Gifts--I periodically make gifts exclusively for group members. No one else on the grid has access to these, so that makes them a little more special. :)

6. And last but not least, joining the group will not cost you any precious group slots. I have a subscribe-o-matic group so this totally takes care of the group limit problem. Yay!

Just look for this sign by the front door, touch it and your in. That's it! :D

Scarlett Johansson @ Striking Poses

This week I decided to create some poses based on Scarlett Johansson. I chose her for a few reasons. She's beautiful, yes...but more than that. I am really in awe of how she can transform herself into a classic "old Hollyood" starlet, not only in looks, but in grace and form. She has certainly taken our current Hollywood by storm.

I have found 10 poses that I really think shows off her talents and beauty. Come on by the store and strike a pose with Scarlett. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. :)

I Know Who Killed Me!!!

From the title can you guess who my new pose pack is based on? That's right...Lindsay Lohan. ;) Now you may be thinking "Zelly, why would you choose to feature poses from someone who has gotten such bad press lately?" Well, I'll tell you...she has some amazing photoshoots! My jaw dropped when I saw some of them. I managed to pick a few that I thought would "convert" well in Second Life and so now I present to you the Lindsay Lohan Poses 10 Pack. :)

Just a reminder to join my Subscribe-o-matic group if you haven't already! I give out group exclusive gifts periodically and I'm about to really turn my group up a notch this weekend. I'll be releasing all the juicy details this Friday. ;)

Alessandra Ambrosio Poses--Supermodel Collection

Yes, this is another installment of my ever-growing International Supermodel Collection. This time I chose Alessandra Ambrosio. This lady is HOT...H-O-T!! As I was working on these poses, I thought it's no wonder she's a supermodel. She has the looks, the bod and the confidence in front of a camera.

Now, if you have the looks, the bod and the confidence to rock the photo session, I suggest you stop on by and grab this pose pack. ;)

First Couples Pose! :D

I'm SO excited! This is my very first try at a couples pose. And of course, I had to use a very famous (or infamous) pose from two of my favorite celebs...The Britney and Madonna Kiss! Yep, yep. Permissions are Mod/Trans so you can adjust for height and transfer the single pose to your partner if you choose not to use the pose balls.

Also, I want to give a shout out and a HUGE HUGE thank you to Ashleey Andrews! She is the very sweet and talented owner of Ash's Trash and she created the outfits you see in the promo. She is also posing as Britney in the picture. Sometime this week there will be a vendor set up in my store for the outfits. Of course, I want to also encourage you to visit her cute pink store. She specializes in celeb outfits, particularly Britney Spears. I'd give you the SLURL but I'm at work right now and can't. :(

Go grab your girlfriends and try this one out! :D

Spidey's Girl!

From the title of this post you probably guessed who I'm talking about...Kirsten Dunst, of course. ;) I decided to capture some poses of Kirsten because (to me) she's such an unusal looking woman and she's like a chameleon. She can change very easily from one persona to another.

With these poses, I've tried to capture the more whimsical Kirsten. I hope you like them. :)

Jennifer Garner @ Striking Poses!

Ah yes, Jennifer Garner. We've seen her play girl next door, bad ass chick and sexy siren. She's such an amazing and versatile woman to be able to pull off all these very different personas believably. In this pose pack, I chose poses that I feel reflect a little bit of all these traits.

Come to Striking Poses and see what kind of girl you'll be in these poses. ;)

I am especially proud of these poses...they turned out so nicely. :)
