Monday Morning Boutique Browsing!

Welcome to another week full of Boutique Store goodies!

Pose - Kristen Stewart #6
Wearing - Noa Dress in Rouge ($255) from SySy

I'm not a fan of pink, the colour anyway, but this dress in rouge is just breathtaking. The dress comes with optional train, which you can see in the picture, or if you don't want to wear it, you can choose to just wear the waist sashband instead. If you're not a pink fan either, you can grab it in purple, blue, green or bronze. SySy's RFL dresses were versions of this in black with coloured trains. The Clothing Fair is over, but is worth checking out the mainstore to see if SySy still has the vendors up with them if you love this dress as much as I do!

Wearing - Ariana Prim Skirt Option ($165) from Clover

Pose 2 - Doutzen Krous #8
Wearing - Ariana Flexi Skirt Option from Clover

I love a dress that comes with options. In this case you can have the flexi skirt for sexy movement around your thighs, or the sexy tight mini look of the prim skirt. Either look is sure to drop jaws! And you can't go wrong at only $165!!! The boots are the free gift you get when you click the box in the Boutique Store for the Clover Mainstore LM.

Pose - Playboy 0209 Argentina
Wearing - Random Hunt Gift ($0) from Elle

You still have time to run on in to the Elle Mainstore and hunt out the flower that is hiding this fabulous green outfit! Its sexy and so stunning! You're bound to love it as much as I do! Don't forget to check out the rest of the fantastic clothing at Elle. Stunning and stylish!

Join us again on Thursday for more yumminess from the Boutique Stores here at Striking Poses. Ake will be back tomorrow with more Zelly posing goodness!!!! See you then!

More Boutiquing!

I have some more goodies from our Boutique Stores for you today, including some new additions to our ranks.

Pose 1 - Adriana Lima #4
Wearing - CuppYcake Necklace ($200) from Core

Pose 2 - Alessandra Ambrosio #4
Wearing - Funky 80s BanGles ($125) from Core

Quirky and fun. Thats how I would describe Core and the fabulous things you can buy there. The necklace is just so adorable. If you are a huge cupcake fan like I am, you'll love the detail that has gone into this. The little cupcake is almost good enough to eat! Then slap on some blue eyeshadow, find your biggest hair and slip on the funky 80s bangles! These are gorgeous and soooo....funky!

Pose - Sarah Michelle Gellar #7
Wearing - Winter Delight in Blue ($240) from Elle

This is just a terrific outfit for wearing out shopping or hanging out with friends. There is an adorable tank top which can be worn on its own or under the amazing cardigan which has the cutest fur trim down the front. I love the pants too. The colour and cut is beautiful and the detailing up around the waistband just adds a little extra.

Things never stand still here in Second Life and neither do our Boutique Stores. We have several new and awesome stores for you to explore and fall in love with.

Body Doubles
Since my noob days in Second Life, I have always had a Body Doubles shape. I started out with the free newbie shape in their wonderful free pack for newbies, and eventually found one I liked enough to buy and keep as my official shape. Body Doubles specialise in creating celebrity shapes for males and females. They even have a range of shapes specially designed to work with some of the more popular skin ranges. New releases include the shapes inspired by the movie Twilight. At $600 each, they are a bargain for fans of the books and movie. A reminder, you are just purchasing the shape. There is a notecard included which does list everything (ie skin, hair, clothing etc) that has been used in the display pictures. And they go perfectly with the poses you will find downstairs at Striking Poses.

Don't forget to check out the awesome poses Ake has been sharing with us this week and the wonderful pose Zelly has created for Relay for Life. Its available in vendors at Striking Poses. Donations of any amount are gratefully accepted too.

Boutique Update 3

There is still more wonderfulness up on the third floor of Striking Poses to share with you all, so here we go with the next installment...

Pic One Pose - Adriana Lima #4
Wearing - Snow Leopard ($300)

Pic Two Pose - Bette Davis #5
Wearing - Pink Shirl ($300) Patterned Skirt Option
Inset - Flexi Skirt Option

Pic Three Pose - Christina Applegate Dollarbie
Wearing - Wildcat ($250)

Elle
Wow the clothes in this store are amazing. There's the huge variety of everything from gowns, to casual to sexy! I love the Snow Leopard jacket texture - just so yummy. The picture I took came out a bit smaller than I thought it would so it doesn't show just how fabulous the clothes are, but the walls at the Elle boutique store at Striking Poses does, so pop on up and spend some time browsing and you'll fall in love too!

Pose - Eva Mendes #1
Wearing - Australia Day Outfit ($195) Tutu Skirt Option from Matahari Style
Inset Pose - Billie Piper Dollarbie
Wearing - Australia Day Outfit Bikini Option

Matahari Style
Eep don't tell anyone you saw me wearing this. Its enough to get a good Briwi (British/Kiwi) deported! I just couldn't get over the cleverness of having the map of Australia as the corset...complete with Tasmania! The set comes with the tutu skirt, thong and long pants. There is also an American set for the patriotic but I forgot to see if that had a clever bodice too. There's something you can go check out along with the rest of the clothes on sale at Matahari Style!

Pose - Catrinel Menghia #8
Wearing - Simplicity Dark Red ($99) with Bolero Jacket from Jazmyn D
Inset - Without Bolero Jacket

Jazmyn D
Fun, flirty and affordable! I love how the Simplicity dress comes with a bolero jacket which totally alters the look of the red dress underneath. In her stores at Striking Poses, Jazmyn showcases some great gear for the stylish lady including shoes and boots! Take a look around and you might be surprised at what you find there.

There's some exciting and wonderful new releases from Zelly that I know Ake is just dying to share with you all. Don't forget how much we all love seeing what you do with your Striking Poses. Take a picture and share it with us on the Striking Poses Flickr page. Maybe we'll spot you wearing something from the Boutiques!
