Wo0t its Monday!!!!

Yay its a new week...which means new releases, new bargains and new goodies!!!

Just a quick update on vacancies at Harlow before I jump into sharing some yummies from the stores. We have one 50 prim store left on the dock, two 75 prim stores in the courtyard, one 100 prim store and the second fabulous main store still up for grabs. If you are looking for a new place to set up shop, come check us out!

Pose - Keira Knightley #4
Wearing -
Seductive Beauty ($169) from Rattenscharf

I was spending some time fishing on the Harlow docks today, and decided to check out the stores we have there. I was blown away by the sexy and seductive lingerie I found in Rattenscharf and just HAD to have this set. Aptly named "seductive beauty", it features a tiny thong underneath an open babydoll camisole with a sexy halterneck. How could anyone resist your charms when you wear this? If you love lingerie as much as I do, you should check this store out asap.

Pose - Jean Shrimpton #7
Wearing -
Barbara ($450) from MEB

This is the outfit I fell in love with at MEB when I first visited their store on Harlow. I just LOVE how real the jacket looks, not only in design, but the textures used...wow! With it comes a grey tank top to be worn either underneath or without the jacket, and a sexy pair of jeans with "touch me" emblazened on the butt! I love wearing the outfit without the tank top. Its just so sexy! Run in and have a closer look and try to resist buying it. I dare you!!!!

Pose - Maxim Mischa Barton
Wearing -
Alyssa (tba) from DollyRock

Named after one of the queens of SL jewellry, Alyssa Bijoux, the Alyssa dress from DollyRock is a stunner! Like DR's talented designer, the first jewellry I bought in SL was also from one of her stores! I wish I still had it, but I let my ex borrow it for a photoshoot and he never returned it. *inserts grumpy face* I did still have a lovely teardrop set which I wore with this gorgeous tribute to a talented lady. Delicate embossing decorates the left side of the bodice which is echoed on the hem of the knee length skirt. Subtle shading and lace trim complete this sophisticated look of this classy cocktail dress.

Pose - Sexy Kneel Dollarbie
Wearing -
Flora Strapless Sundress ($149) from Jazmyn D

Another thing you can never have too many of this summer is sexy sundresses! And what is even better, Jazmyn D is still having their 15% off sale at their Harlow store only, so this dress will cost you $149 - 15%! Okay I cheated and went into the store and $126 is what this dress will cost you, so pop in and see the fabulous savings you will make for yourself! You can afford to buy it in all colours! Its the perfect outfit for shopping, lunching with friends or even fishing! Which is where I wore it tonight!

Earlier today though I spent some time fishing and look what I caught! I didn't catch a message in a bottle, I caught a Genie!!!! To be exact, I caught a fabulous Barbara Eden pose!!! To make fishing at Harlow even more fun, Zelly has added some of her poses to the prize pool. Hidden in there is a fabulous couples pose too. Which one? I dunno. I haven't snagged it yet, but I'm trying!!!

For those who don't know how to fish with 7seas, here's a quick lesson for you.

When you teleport in to Harlow, hit one of the teleport signs and go to the Docks. Once there, you will find a Vendor, as seen to the right. You have a couple of different rod options. For $250, you receive a "Pro" rod. This has all the bells and whistles and uses bait. For $100, you receive the "Casual" rod. You don't need bait and its a good rod for those who just want to hang out and fish without getting into the competitions and ratings of 7seas. If you do go for the Pro Rod, you start out with some bait (I think 50) and after that, you do need to purchase more from the vendor. $30 gets you a bucket of 100 pieces, and for $150, you get 600 pieces, which will keep you going for a while! Then all you need to do is rez the rod and wear it. The rods come with a gesture shortcut for casting (F2), so all you need to do is find a seat and enjoy yourselves. Its a fun way to spend time with your friends or just some quiet alone time. Plus at Harlow, you don't just catch little fishy friends, you also get the bonus of catching poses as well!

Zelly has also set up a contest board, so keep watch for a fishing competition in the near future! You never know what exciting goodies she has planned for Harlow!

Wearing -

You will look like a million lindens in it!!!

Pose - Krista Allen #3
Wearing -
Macy Bikini ($150) and Natalie Coverup ($150) from Exodi

I decided to explore the Showcase spots yesterday and stumbled across a gorgeous beach so I thought it would be perfect spot for a few pictures. I slipped into my Exodi bikini, threw on a coverup and I was all set for some relaxing time playing in the tide pools. I just love this coverup! It comes in two styles, sheer and non-sheer, so it can be worn over a bikini or as a sexy summer top. Its just lovely! The bikinis are a summer essential too. You can never have enough of these!!!

Pose - Vin Diesel #3
Wearing -
Marauder Shirt ($169) from Karnal Rage

I just love a man in a buttoned up shirt, and this one from Karnal Rage is so yummy. It comes with prim sleeves and collar and just looks so fabulously sexy. The tribal skull design gives it the more urban edge that is the trademark of KR. Your man will look hawt in this shirt! While you're there, check out the ultra-sexy new jeans in store too. Phwroooar I get all hot just thinking about them!

Pose - Taylor Swift #6
Wearing -
Faul Prank Shirt ($50) and Vintage Jeans ($99) from Amanda's Fashions

I love love love jeans, especially the worn in kind. These vintage jeans from Amanda's Fashions fit the bill beautifully. And at only $99, you can't go wrong! Team it up with the cute Faul Prank shirt and you have a cute outfit for shopping or just relaxing in this summer. Also in store are the cutest little summer dresses, and in the Harlow store, there's a special dress marked down to only $1!!!

Pose - Cam : Dita #1 Jordan : Xtina Gift #3 (no longer available)
Wearing -
All American ($150) from Swim

Nothing better to do on a hot summer day than go fishing. Cam and I headed to the docks at Harlow and spent some time fishing with 7seas wearing our sexy matching swimwear from Swim. The All American set is just perfect for the 4th of July picnic with your partner, and as I mentioned in my previous blog about Swim, when you buy the outfit, the trunks for him are TRANS!!!! How fabulous is that??? You not only get yourself a fantastically sexy bikini, but you can share it with the man in your life.

As her tribute to celebrate the life and style of Michael Jackson, Zelly has marked down her Michael Jackson pose pack to only $50 for the entire fatpack of 8 poses. Thats right, you get the entire pack of 8 fabulous Michael Jackson poses for only $50. I'm not sure how long she will run this for, so make sure you run in and snap up this special asap. You will find it in the middle section of the store along with the new releases and other special offers.

Its been quite the week, so kick back and enjoy your weekend with some fabulous shopping and bargains. And never forget to let those who mean the world to you know it. You never know when you might lose them.

Are you looking for the perfect pose? ... read here :D

Hello!

Today I've decided to do some photos using our Bewitched studio, as I wanted to give you some ideas when you come toJustify Full make your own photos.

The first pose I’m using is number ... I believe that this ‘Directors’ sitting poses are just fantastic and as soon as I saw them, I knew I had to become one! Sitting down and I imagined what it would be like to see the actors working their magic on set... do I look important and in control? hehehe I bet not, but anyway, the pose is nice for a casual use and it gives you that young feeling. What I really like about the pose is the feet position; they look so cute, like a little girl :)

Taylor7

My second choice is pose number.... I know Zelly will kill me when she realises that I am standing on the coffee table, hehehehe ... sorry Zelly ;)

This pose is fantastic, and I think every dress designer should use it, especially for the designers that design and create gowns, it is a lovely natural famine and delicate pose, I really love it and I'm sure that you will too.

Taylor10

Well ... that is all for today ... I hope you like the poses I chose and it helps you to decide what to buy, whether it is the complete fat pack or some single poses ... the decision is all yours ;)

See ya soon and have a wonderful weekend!

XoXo
Ake!

Cherry Blossom ($200) from Moulliez

Moulliez is another new find for me and after looking through the store, its going to be a favourite. I love the styles and the fabrics chosen compliment not only the outfit, but anyone wearing them. There's also a couple of fabulous gifts in store, so come on in and check out the lovely designs on sale at Moulliez.

If you are an art lover, then you will be blown away by the fantastic artwork in The Gallery. From colourful abstracts to muted and delicate sketches to amazing sculptures, all are here waiting to delight you.

Hit up the subscribo in store and check notices and you'll find the most amazing pair of jeans! I love the denim fabric and the stiching detail on them. I know you will too!

A little walk on the beach at Harlow ...

Hallow!

Today is a really cold day here in Chile, the mountains are all snowed over and that brings the cold down to our little city. *shivers*

To escape the cold I took a trip to our very own beach at Harlow and as always I had the latest poses attached to my hud. For today’s photo shoot I came equipped with the Taylor swift collection and I’m sure you’ll all love it as much as we girls do (Zelly, Jordan and I).

So let’s get down to business!

I chose pose number 2 for this first photo. My boyfriend Spad gave me a wonderful present which I thought would fit perfectly with this pose, a lovely horse! I have to say this pose is sexy and stylish and it rocks my socks off! Don’t you agree?

TaylorSwift 02


My second choice is pose number 6, a very romantic, sensitive and feminine pose. When I look at the photo I think my mind is in another world, dreaming and thinking on the love of my life. :P


TaylorSwift 06

Okay people, that’s all for today, thanks for your time on reading this and don’t forget to visit Harlow and Striking Poses, lots of stores to go shopping in :)


Don’t forget about the group gift and all the dollarbies inside our Striking Poses store, if you don’t have time to go shopping in world, you can do it though Xstreet Market, you will find the link below.

Welcome to the Weekend!!!!

Time for some more yumminess from the stores on Harlow. I'm going to jump straight into it today.

Pose - I forgot to write it down!
Wearing -
Ambre ($290) from MEB

Omg you HAVE HAVE HAVE to check out this store. Gorgeous designs, fabulous textures and so many outfits you will fall in love with. MEB is one of my new favourite stores and after the hair fair, I will be stocking up on gorgeousness from their store! The Ambre dress I am wearing is a perfect examples of design and textures they use to make their clothing stand out of the crowd. The use of colour and pattern is simply yummy! Run on in and see if you are in love with the clothing as I am.

Pose - Snow Bunny #2
Wearing -
White Lilac Hair ($300) from Calla

Calla has been a favourite hair store of mine...well pretty much since my early SL days. The colours and styles have always appealed to me, and to many others. The new textures and styles are proving to be every bit as popular as the old ones, and there is no slowing Calla down. This style is just gorgeous! I am a huge fan of the short and sassy styles. The white lilac hair I am wearing is especially adorable. If you haven't seen the new styles at Calla, come on in and look. They are delicious!

Pose - Playboy 0309 Germany
Wearing -
Bloom Earrings ($450) from Flirt

Earring lovers, like me, will drool over the amazing designs of jewellry from Flirt. I love the delicacy of the flowers in the bloom range and the colours are incredible. There is the perfect accent for any outfit here. You will go gaga over the selection and have a really hard time choosing a favourite. I know I still can't.

Pose - Black Widow
Wearing -
Revenge ($179) from Divalicious

Sexy, sassy and affordable, thats how I would describe Divalicious. The store is packed with really fabulous outfits at wonderful prices. There really is something in here for everyone's tastes too. Being the huge corset fan I am, I was instantly taken with the Revenge outfit and just had to have it. I love how it works with the skirt layer and without. Looks like my friend loves it too! I'm sure it will effect all your male friends the same way!

She's a Maniac ($175) from Sugar Mill

One of my all time favourite novelty pose stores without a doubt is Sugar Mill. From poses based on movies, like the one above from Flashdance, to hilarious figments from Anicia's imagination, this store has always inspired me and kept me laughing. Just the other day a friend remarked that she had always wanted to take a picture in the chair and shower from Flashdance and her jaw dropped when I said I already had the props for that! If you are looking for something a bit different for a picture, check out Sugar Mill for inspiration.

Cupcake Launcher ($100) from Fire Good

As soon as I logged in yesterday, my other half IMed me and said I HAD to go to Fire Good and pick up the Cupcake Launcher. Again we're back to the fact he calls me Cupcake and its the just the perfect accessory for me to have. So I bounced on in, picked it up and OMG I love it! You have a tray of delicious looking cupcakes that you hold in your hand, move into mouselook and you can fire them at people. Cupcakes and sprinkles fly everywhere!!!! Without a doubt, its my new favourite toy! There's plenty of other marvallous toys and things to look at in Fire Good. So if you have a warped sense of humour like I do, you need to check it out asap!

There's only a few stores left available to rent on the Harlow sim, so let me know if you want one of them and I'll sort you out with one of them. We also have a subscribomatic for the sim which all of our stores are able to use to let you know what they have for you and also to let you know of sim events, contests and goings on. Hit one of them if you would like to keep up to date with Harlow.

iF yoU SEeK AMY ....

Hello there!

Today I will share with you some of my favorites poses from the colection "iF yoU SEeK AMY"... I must tell you that it was very difficult to actually put together these shots with these poses, as they are just HOT! and well I had difficulties keeping my clothes on, I just wanted to give my boy a call and get him so he could "have a look". Anyway here we are..

My first choice is pose number 9, the first time I saw it the movie "basic instinct" sprung to mind and I'm sure you all know which scene I'm talking about... I didn't want to copy this scene as I wanted to show even with clothes you can grab the attention of any guy. I would say it has a rude style but not any less sensual.

iF yoU SEeK AMY pose 9

My second choice for today, is pose number 4. I can say using simple words that I would call this pose elegant, sensual and femenine. It is an excellent pose to show off some lovely underwear and wait for your man after his long day of work.

Bumper Goodies #2

I was talking to Zelly yesterday and she let slip that Harlow is at 81% occupancy rate. That means we have oodles of stores for you to wander around and find something special in, or if you have been holding off taking a store, time is fast running out. We have only a couple of 50 and 75 prim stores left and one 150 prim store, so get in quickly before you miss out. There is also the fabulous main store Zelly talked about yesterday still available too.

Radical ($99) and Shredded Jeans in Black ($99) from Karnal Rage

Nice to finally have a use for one of my male friends. I sent him off to Karnal Rage to grab some goodies to show you and this is what he came up with....a sexy black shirt he looks so yummy in and a great pair of jeans. Unfortunately he didn't share my interest in just looking at the gorgeous display pictures in the store...admiring the photography work of course! For the man who wants a more urban, streetwear look, and even some rpg looks, then this is the store you need to check out.

Patriotic Pair ($150) from Swim

Omg this would have to be THE store for couples looking for swimwear! Swim not only sells gorgeous bikinis, but when you buy the packs, you also receive a matching pair of transferable trunks and tank top for the special man in your life. Getting ready for July 4th, Swim has some very patriotic sets available. I just loved the red, white and blue of this set (being British and all) and don't we look adorable. There is a special June dollarbie available in store now, so come check them out and stock not only yourself, but your man up in swimwear for the summer.

Bella Corset with Twilight White Shirt ($100) from Fashion Oasis

I love love love corsets!!!! I might have mentioned that once or twice before. The Bella corset from Fashion Oasis is without a doubt one of my new all time favs!!! Personally I love wearing them without the undershirt for a sexy teasing look. Looks fabulous with jeans! The Twilight shirt that comes with it gives a more demure look for the more modest. If you are a Pixeldolls-aholic like me, then Fashion Oasis is the place for you!

Pose - Catrinel Menghia #3

Shimmer ($145) from Foxy Fashion

I'm a sucker for sexy lbd's, and they don't come much sexier than Shimmer. Foxy Fashion is a new store to me and its a great find! I was drawn to the sexy cut out sides and assymetrical design of this dress. Its the perfect dress when you are out to create an impression. The cute flare on the side is attached with a brooch which has a bling on/off function. Sexy and affordable, you can't go past this store.

Oh La La ($275) from Pout!

I really love the stunning and classic designs coming from Pout! This dress lives up to its name. Oh la la is what I said when I tried it on. You have plenty of options with this dress too. You can wear it with lace trim or without, and with sleeves or without, so there is a look for any occasion. The red lacing on the bodice is a gorgeous touch too. If you haven't taken a look at the wonderful designs Pout! has, take some time to look around.

Pose - Drew Barrymore #1

Gold Necessity Hoop Earrings (Store Gift) from Primagine

I'm a sucker for earrings (and tiaras), so finding these free in the wonderous Primagine store was like Xmas for me! With a range of glamorous jewellry and accessories, its the perfect place to look around for the sparklie and shiney things we all love to stock up our inventories with! I love the detail and care that has gone into every design. Come have a look for yourselves and see if something grabs your fancy.

While you are here, hit up the Harlow Subscribo Ake mentioned on Tuesday. These will keep you informed of the special events, sales and new releases coming from our wonderful Harlow stores and Striking Poses.
