Midweek Goodness from Harlow!

Its Wednesday, Humpday, halfway through yet another week, and I'm back with some more amazing items from Harlow...including my most favourite dress from my most favourite new store. Beware - fangirl mode incoming!!! Be sure to pick up a copy of the October issue of Icon Magazine from the kiosk outside the Striking Poses store and check out the article featuring our wonderful Zelly and Ake and the ordeal they went through bringing Striking Poses into line with the new TOS guidelines, as well as many more fabulous articles.

Pose - Sassy 9
Wearing - AfterShock Leather Minidress from XTC

The problem with most leather clothing you find around the grid if that it doesn't really look like leather. Not only will you find the best designs for men and women in XTC, but they look so realistic that you can almost hear the leather as you move in it. From Jackets and pants, to corsets (yum!!!!) and minidresses, you will find something you love here. I am totally fangirl about this store and all my friends have been pretty much ordered to check it out. If you love quality clothing and leather, you NEED to run and check this store out asap!!!!

Pose - Hello Lover 1
Wearing - Funny Panties from Ema's Secret

You can never have enough panties in your inventory, and the funny panties from Ema's Secret are just adorable and look so comfy to wear, especially for dancing around in your bedroom! Available in a multi-pack of 4 colours, these panties are a must have for any inventory.

Pose - In The Mood 3
Wearing - Hermosa in Black from Awesome Designs

New from Awesome Designs is Hermosa. Complete with earrings, shoes and bangles, its the perfect outfit for shopping, hanging out with friends or just wearing around the grid. With a flaired skirt or straight tight skirt, its a very versatile and cute dress. The addition of the belt in a shade that compliments the floral design on the top is a gorgeous touch. Its also available in white and lavender, if black is not your shade.

Popcorn Food Fighter from Fire Good

We all enjoy grabbing our popcorn as we sit around watching the various dramas that pop up around the place. Now thanks to Fire Good, you can not only grab your popcorn, you can throw it at those drama queens as well! This is one of the new range of food fighters in store. Also available is the Corndog, Caramel Apple and Jello Bar launchers. You'll have tons of fun with these. I do!

I have a wonderfully festive item from another one of our new stores for you. Perfect for this time of year is this adorable bouquet of flowers in a pumpkin. Jazzy's Home Furnishings have all those lovely little touches to make your house a home. From pictures for your walls to flowers and furniture, all at incredible prices too.

Black and Red Buckled Stiletto from MEB

Elegant and classy, two words to describe the new range of stiletto heels from MEB. Stilettos are another inventory must have, and this new range is something you will wear again and again. Perfect with jeans or a little black dress, they are not only very versatile, but look fabulous too.

Sneaking in on Monday...Just!

Eep I'm cutting it close with the post today. I hit a "no motivation" spot this morning and kept putting things off and now rushing to get in before its Tuesday and Ake's posting day! I do have some awesome things for you today though, so let's get to it.

Pose - Vanessa Paradise Dollarbie
Wearing - Alexandra ($649) from Ali Couture

I just LOVE this gown! In fact I haven't taken it off since Alia sent it to me, except for doing other pictures that is anyway. Its just the most stunning thing I have ever seen...and thats saying something. With three versions of the bodice (standard, see through and a prim draped version) and a gorgeous rose trimmed skirt, its spectacular and looks incredible when you're dancing. It also comes with the roses for your hair. This is a definate MUST HAVE gown!!!

Pose - Tatiana Del Toro Dollarbie
Wearing - Prada ($490) from MEB

Another one of my favourite designs from MEB is the Prada dress. Its simply lovely! I love the delicacy of it and the muted colouring. It flows amazingly and is an elegant summer dress for any special occasion. Its dressy enough to go from shopping trip to a night out dancing. You will fall in love with this dress too, or maybe something else in the store. All the designs are something special!

Omg just when I thought I couldn't laugh anymore, I opened my new releases from T Junction and found some of the best shirts yet!!!! For Cam - "Buy me another beer, you're still ugly" which did have me wishing I could ctrl alt del him!!!! Here we are hanging out at the Bewitched set in the Studio. Have you checked it out yet? We have cleverly replicated the living room from bewitched and its open for you to come have some fun with and its also the setting for our photo competition. Don't forget to check out T Junction for the funniest tees in SL!

Pose - Tiffany Theissen Lucky Chair
Wearing - Tee ($75) from T Junction and Scotty Shorts ($20) from RLF

RLF is owned by a new designer just wetting her feet in the clothing field and her first attempt, the Scotty Shorts, are just super. They are unisex and look good on whether you are a male or female. Cameron modelled them for me earlier and he looked hot in them, but I pinched them back cos I love them! I slipped into yet another T Junction release - Come to the dark side...we have cookies! Mmmm cookies! Look out dark side, here I come! RLF also do custom shapes as well as some standard models sold in store.

Have you heard about the special store at Harlow? Called Penny Palisade, its our Sim gift to you all. Everything in it comes from our generous vendors and is priced at $25 or less. I had a look around earlier and picked up a few things shown below. Only available at Penny Palisade.

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

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.
