Humpday on Harlow

Its Wednesday and you know what that means....new bloggage from the Harlow stores!

Pose - Tickled Feet 6
Wearing - Boyfriend Shirt from SF Designs

Full of great clothing for men and women, SF Designs has joined us here on Harlow. One of my favourite shirts is their boyfriend shirt. Its a perfect casual shirt to wear with jeans and comes in 3 colour choices. There is also 3 ways to wear it. You can wear it like I am above, tied around your waist, or as an open shirt with a tank or bra top underneath. Check out what else is in store!

Pose - Sulty 9
Wearing - Fenanimal in Snake from XTC

I think of all the XTC clothing I own, this remains my favourite. You get a sexy leather thong worn with chaps, a cropped leather jacket, fingerless gloves, and the most stunningly textured long sleeve shirt in an animal print. I love to wear the top with jeans or leather pants when I just out and about. You have to see these textures to believe them!

Pose - International Model 3 #9
Wearing - SSC Laqroki Jasmin Shape from Body Doubles with Deschanel Earrings and Cheetah Corset Set from Snatch

I just love my collection of Body Doubles shapes! I just love how sexy and proportioned they are. Unfortunately I don't own a Jasmin skin, so I'm wearing my Laq Tasha 2 skin with it. It still looks stunning! I teamed it up with a retro set from Snatch that I picked up during a Hump Day sale a few weeks back and my fav earrings...and they are colour change, so can be worn with anything!

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!

Its available only at the Pout! mainstore, so grab a lm and run on in to pick up the sweetest dress for summer.

Pose - Audrey Kitching #3
Inset Pose - Carmen Kass #1
Wearing - Druella from DollyRock

DollyRock goes gothic with the Druella dress. A sexy corset tops a stunningly detailed lace skirt that is short in the front and a longer train at the back. Flecks of red add a sexy touch to the corset and enhance the red jewel in the middle of the bodice with skeletal wings flaring out from either side and the gothic cross on the bottom. With the dress comes a bolero inspired jacket with more red detailing on the shoulders, wrists and at the base of the neck. Its the perfect sexy dress for any creature of the night, or when you just want to impress.

Still in keeping with the "not every woman wants to be a Barbie Doll" mindset, Body Doubles released two new shapes for the woman who wants to be more voluptuous. Firstly, from roles in Boston Public, Dreamgirls and Soulmen, comes Sharon Leal. Also rereleased is the updated Queen Latifah shape. She is big and beautiful and proud of it. Both shapes are thicker than the usual Hollywood thin girls, but as Body Doubles says....thick is the new thin! Both shapes would make a gorgeous addition to your collection. And remember, you are buying the shape only. All skin, hair and clothing details comes in a styling card inside the box so you can make yourself over to look like the pictures.

As I said at the start, keeping watching for the big, huge, gigantic, ginormous news coming from Zelly...possibly tomorrow! We've all been DYING to tell you and now we almost can!!!!

Earrings and two gorgeous rings come with this outfit.

New from Body Doubles this week come two more great shapes! For the men, Ashton Kutcher! From the loveable ditz in That 70s Show through to Punk'd, Ashton has many looks, but is most famous for marrying his much older "cougar", Demi Moore.

One of the most versatile actresses of her generation, Juliette has featured in over 40 movies in her career to date and isn't slowing down now. This is one gorgeous shape, so check her out!

Friday On My Mind...

Its been one heck of a week, and I am so glad its almost over! Its definitely one I will be happy to see the back of.

My life might have been suckful this week, but the new stuff at the Striking Poses Boutique Stores have been anything but!

Inset - Stud Lip Ring from Core
Cuppycake Lounger from Core

Thank you to Kristya from Core for bouncing over to my place this morning and taking these awesome pics for me! The lip ring is fabulous! With the Monroe beauty spot piercings either side on the top lip and a labret one under the ring which pierces the bottom lip. There's a nose piercing too, but you cannot see due to the picture angle. Another new release is the Cuppycake Lounger which comes with 8 built in sitting poses. Yummeh!!!!! I could just dive on in and nom this all up! Its a fabulous novelty item from Core! Also added to the Core mainstore Lucky Boards is a new and exclusive, never to be sold in the store, pair of Heartz Short Shortz! These kick serious (no pun intended, or maybe it is) butt!

Pose 1 - Dita Von Teese #5
Pose 2 - Doutzen Krous #6
Wearing - Covet (Discovery Hunt Gift) from Pout

I mentioned the fabulous Covet in Lilac from Pout in Monday's blog. Its not on sale in the shop and is a hunt exclusive, till the end of the month anyway. Here's your chance to grab it for free before anyone else can even buy it! It comes in 3 skirt styles; long and elegant, slanted and playful and sexy mini...so there is something for every occasion.

Pose - Audrey Kitching #7
Wearing - Django`s Cat from Medusa's Joy

I have an interesting and playful outfit this week for you from Medusa's Joy. Complete with scripted tail, cap, full loaded belt and even a should rat friend, this is sure to make you stand out in a crowd. Don't forget to check out Medusa's Joy for more wonderful and unusual designs.

Fresh off the block at Body Doubles is Jennifer Aniston. Now some might fancy her, or be on Team Aniston...I just wish she would stop whining about Brad. Its been years!!! Get over it already! Regardless, its yet another stunning shape from Body Doubles. I don't know how they do it, but time after time, they get it right! With the shape, you get a style card with skin, hair, eyes and everything else you need to make your Avi look like the stunning picture on the board.

Hope you have had a better week! I'm looking forward to the weekend thats for sure. Zelly will be back with us and I don't know about you all, but I have missed her and her fabulous new releases.

Thuper Thursday Things!

Its Thursday which means...almost the weekend!!!! I have some great things for you today, so I'm going to jump right into it!

Pose - Lady Gaga #4
Shape - BloodRayne from Body Doubles
Background - Grungy Stripes Texture #17 ($300 pack of 20) from Core

Her mother was human, her father a Vampire...she is neither. She is a Dhampir. Originally starting out as an action-adventure video game character, BloodRayne has inspired movies and even comic books. Body Doubles brings you BloodRayne as portrayed by Kristianna Loken in the 2006 movie, which I highly do not recommend seeing. The movie may suck eggs, but Rayne is a gorgeous Dhampir and is a shape all Vampire enthusiasts should have in their collection. This is one lady who kicks major butt! You need to have her in your shape collection!

I was looking through the amazing textures from Core, and found the perfect one for the picture backdrop. Featuring a gold skull and crossbones, this is an incredible texture and has such a lovely silky texture again. You need to check these out. They have so many uses and at $300 for a pack of 20, its a good buy.

Pose - Keeley Hazell #2
Wearing - Georgette 2 ($225) from DollyRock
Background - Grungy Stripes #13 from Core
Inset Pose - Bree (Desperate Housewives Profile Reward no longer available)
Wearing - Alice ($185) from DollyRock
Background - Grungy Stripes #11 from Core

Yes I'm still in Princess Mode and wearing my tiara. It just goes with everything and looks fabulous with these two gorgeous dresses from DollyRock! First we have the Georgette 2 dress which is a variation of the Georgette gown released last week to celebrate St George's Day in England. Tradition is to wear a red rose through your lapel...or in this case, all over a gorgeous dress. The Georgette 2 dress comes with the shoes featuring a tiny rose on the top. Just stunning. Also new this week is Alice - a playful and cute dress in a pink gingham check with tiny hearts dangling from the bottom of the skirt. Looks like DollyRock's Alice beat the Queen of Hearts and is sporting trophies! Run on in to the mainstore and look under the subscribo - which you neeeed to hit up - and you'll see the Choc Bunny shirt still out as the free gift.

Pose - Cute Girl Dollarbie
Wearing - Stars n Stripes ($350) from Rainbow's End
Inset Pose - Ashanti Dollarbie

From one of newest stores comes the patriotic Stars n Stripes dress. I feel like Miss America in this picture...and look like her too! Tiaras have that effect. From Rainbow's End, the Stars n Stripes dress comes with two skirt options...long and short...and also comes with shoes! The skirts look great when dancing and its just what you need cos July 4th isn't too far away really. Okay its 2 months away, but you can never have too much stuff right ladies??? Imagine all the parties and events you will need to dress up for! Like we need an excuse though!

I missed Ake yesterday, but she will be back with us tomorrow with more fabulous pictures and poses from Striking Poses to show us. I enjoy watching how she uses them in creative and inspiring ways.

The Boutique Stores are up on the third floor of the Striking Poses mainstore. There are teleporters dotted all around the store for a quick trip upstairs, or you can use the stairs. We have a fabulous group of stores up there, all with LMs to their mainstores if you would like to check out more of their ranges.

See you on Saturday!!!!

You Don't Want To Miss This!

Its a new week with lots of wonderful surprises and releases from the fabulous stores we have upstairs at Striking Poses.

Pose - Lady GaGa #4
Wearing - Hazel ($50) from DollyRock
Backdrop - Grungy Stripes #20 ($300 pack of 20) from Core

I'm in a bit of a "princess" mood this week and have been wearing my tiara all over the place with all sorts of outfits. Every woman needs a tiara in her inventory and never needs an excuse to wear it! If I did need an excuse, it would be because I found this gorgeous dress for a song at DollyRock!!! This special offer has been extended, so you need to run on in and snap it up! Also at DollyRock you can find Cherry's Pick. This is an outfit that the wonderful Cherry has chosen to offer at the special price of $100. This week its a sexy lacey outfit called Nancy and it comes in four colour choices.

I just had to show off a gorgeous texture from Core. The stripes and finish gives the one I used an almost silky look that is classy yet keeps the grunge feel and look. The packs contain 20 textures that are just perfect for photo backgrounds or for many other uses. I think they'd look pretty just as pictures on the wall!

Pose - Doutzen Krous #8
Inset Pose - Glamorous Dollarbie
Wearing - Ravel (Exclusive gift) from Milady's Fancy

Exclusively as a gift at the Striking Poses Boutique Stores is the elegant and sexy Ravel dress from Milady's Fancy.

This is the outfit that really does take you from day into night. Don't forget to peek in and fall in love with the rest of the range at Milady's Fancy.

Body Doubles just keep on chugging out the sexiest shapes! From their Skin Specific Collection comes two new shapes for Free Speerit skins - Alice and Kimberly.

Thursday Yummies!

I'm a wee bit tired today...mostly cos I have been up since 5:30am with Miss Short, Evil and Blonde...so I haven't had the time or energy to do pics for today's post so I'll be using screenshots instead.

New to our Boutique Stores is Milady's Fancy. I'm totally in lust with the Alix dress in the pic and I know you will be too once you see it. Delicate lace panels run down the sides of a sparkly and sexy cocktail dress which is just the yummiest I have seen in a while. It comes in a range of colours for those prefer a more colourful look.

If you have been loving the Lady GaGa poses, why not grab the Lady GaGa shape from Body Doubles. She's saucy, sexy and always provocative and would be a great addition to anyone's shape collection. Or if you just want sexy, there's the new Nelly Furtado shape available now. Two very hot ladies and very hot shapes. Its a hard decision.

G Sloane Couture has been busy creating new and sexy things for us this week. One of my favs is Fit To Be Tied (pictured above). Is it a dress, its it lingerie? It can be both...sexy sheer silk ribbons of silk wrap around your body as a base, then topped by satin ribbons loosely draped, combined with a sheer chiffon skirt but also a solid coordinating underskirt so you can wear this in the boudior or at a gala. It comes in lilac and in black and is just gorgeous.

Not only does Core have cute accessories, furniture and photography...but now they have introduced a range of textures! These will look great as a photo background or for any other uses. Don't forget about the photo contest Core is running!

Wearing - I Dropted My Cupcake Tank ($35) from Gumdrop

I popped into Gumdrop earlier and saw the cutest tank top so I just had to have it! Its something all cupcake fans need to have, even if it has a very sad message on it - I dropped my cupcake. It comes in pink and yellow and jacket/shirt layer options. Awesome bargain! Check out the range of 80s tees, long stripey socks and other wonderful items at Gumdrop.

There's always lots of wonderfulness on the third floor of Striking Poses, so come on up and check it out after you stock up on Zelly's awesome poses.
