Monday Shopping at Harlow

I have a couple of new stores to share with you today that I found when I was zooming around the streets of Harlow and a couple of old favourites.

Pose - Wet Dream #2
Wearing -
Purple Corset from Alexandre

Alexandre has some gorgeous clothing in store and I was drooling big time as I window shopped. There is a wall of sales items too, which is where I picked up this baby. I don't have enough purple in my wardrobe and we all know by now, I am a sucker for corsets! Swing by and check them out and see if you fall in love with them too!

Pose - International Model
Wearing -
Opana (gift in store) from Kissed by Lithium

If you don't know Kissed by Lithium, you are missing out on not only a store with a fun name, but some stunning, fun and creative designs too. I spent a bit of time there too adding to my wishlist. See if you can fine something for yours...or maybe you will give in and snap yours up!

Pose - Snow Bunny #9
Wearing -
Destroyed Tank from Foxxy Fashions

I like Foxxy's Fashions. Its another fun, flirty, sexy store full of gorgeous dresses and mix and match seperates for you to create your own looks and style. I'm shocked however at the insinuation that this shirt is just so perfectly "me". Shocked I tell you! There are different captioned tanks in store, so see which one is you!

Pose - Pulse Racer #6
Wearing -
Renaissance in Red from Silk & Satyr

Silk & Satyr have done it again. They have designed yet another gorgeous and elegant gown to add to their growing collection. Renaissance is simply stunning. With a form fitting bodice that skims down over the hips before flaring out in a slim skirt. With ruffles at the cuffs and on the bodice and back, its another winner!

Wait until you see the new poses Zelly has just released. I can't wait to see what Ake comes up with this week to show them off. They are some of the best poses ever!!! I know I can't wait to play with them!

Fairies or Angels ... its up to you ;)

Hello People,

I feel like the wicked witch of the west, ”I’m Meeellttttiiingggg.. Meeellttttingggg”. Can you believe that it is 37°C today!!! OMG and we don’t have any air conditioning systems, not unless you are in an office or shopping mall… but not in the homes here, were to far away for those things.

Anyway I want to show you the original pictures that Zelly was inspired by to create these amazing Fairy poses, from her “Fairy Essence” collection.

The Fairy Essance Inspiration

Not only for fairies! All you angels can use them too, just like I did! And here is me to show you my angel point of view :3

Pose Number 10
Awaking

Pose Number 08
coming

These poses are adorable, soft and very feminine, I am sure you will like them as much as I do.

Oh, I forgot to remind you all in my previous post about the shapes we have available. So there we go I have reminded you all that we sell shapes! Bryony was the last one and the shape is perfect for models as it is Stylish, tall and pretty ;)

Monday Shopping at Harlow

And I'm back with a couple more awesome things from our stores at Harlow to share with you.

Pose - Carribean Shimmer #3
Wearing -
Exodi Sienna Shape from Body Doubles


From the Skin Specific Collection, the Exodi Sienna Shape from Body Doubles is one of the stunners. They are one of my favourite skins and I have a huge collection of them, so having a shape to show them off is awesome!

Pose - Attitude #4
Wearing -
Femanimal in Snake from XTC

This was one of the first outfits I ever bought from XTC. I just fell in love with the snake texture of the top and tend to wear it with jeans or leather pants and it looks amazing. It comes with a cropped leather jacket, chaps, bikini pants, gloves and the snake texture shirt. Check out the others in this range. They are works of art!

Yellow and Blue Flowers in Blue Tub, Copper Butler's Table & Lilies and Roses in Silver Pot from Jazzy's Home Furnishings

Flowers add the finishing touch to any home, and Jazzy's Home Furnishings have some beautiful ones to dress up your interior or exterior. The add a dash of colour that will liven up your space, be it a mansion or simple skybox.

Pose - Catty Girl #8
Wearing -
Shoe & Accessory Hunt Gifts from RRS

If you haven't heard of RRS, then you are missing out. They share a store with the fabulous Dance Creations and many of the style work with those designs to make a matching set of clothing and shoes. They are taking part in the Shoes and Accessories hunt, so I thought I would show off their hunt prizes. For the men, the Snake Lost Cowboy Boots will be a great addition to their footware folder. And for the ladies, the Boho Fringe Boots in Mauve are going to look great however you wear them, so check out the hunt and check out the shoes!

We have some exciting poses coming out of Zelly's workshop and I can't wait to see what Ake does with them, so keep watching out for those. Also check out the vacancies if you want to join us here on Harlow.

Yes, I had been on my holiday’s hehehe, not that I went anywhere. I needed a break to take care on some RL things and now I have to wait for answers … I hate waiting…. To wait for someone to tell me yes or no while my life is on hold till I get this answer….

If last decade was the Naughties, does that make this decade the Teenies? Something to ponder while you check out these awesome new finds from Harlow.

Pose - International Models 11 #6
Wearing -
SSC Cupcakes Daydream from Body Doubles

I love Body Doubles shapes and I especially love the new Skin Specific Collection shapes. Cupcakes is one of my fav skin places, so I have an extensive collection of make ups and skins from there. Having a shape especially made to show them off to their best is such an awesome plus! I'm almost tempted to give up my modified Leah Remini for it! But not quite...

Pose - International Models 11 #2
Wearing -
Elf Girl from Nushru

Nushru was very generous and gave its group this gorgeous dress in red and green for Christmas. Its so cute that Quiver made more gorgeous colour combinations available and they are very affordable too and have matching boots you can purchase seperately.

Flounce & Faun Kardi's Heirloom Gown & Silq'waggi Heirloom Earrings and Necklace from Silk & Satyr

New in store for '10 is this gorgeous gown from Silk and Satyr. With a gorgeous laced decolletage and bare shoulders, its a stunner for any remaining parties celebrating the new year, or just a night out with your loved one. teamed up with the special Heirloom jewellry from Silq'waggi, you will look amazing!

Pose - International Model 14 #9
Wearing -
Mix and Match Tops from Dance Creations

I love the mix and match range from Dance Creations. With them in my inventory, I always have something for any occasion. I was feeling a bit animalistic tonight, so found the gorgeous cheetah shirts to share with you. At such ridiculous prices, you can stock up your inventory too!

Pose - International Models 11 #4
Wearing -
Golden Dreams Bangles from Zari

The perfect finishing touch to your outfit can be found at Zari. The Golden Dreams chunky gold bangles will look great with an evening gown or just jeans and a tee. Check out the rest of the amazing jewellry on offer in store on Harlow.
