In the memory of Zelly Mornington
Thursday, March 18, 2010
I am very sad to announce that I am shutting the doors of Striking Poses indefinitely. I am having some serious health issues and as much as I've tried to keep SP current and thriving, I just can't at this time.
I have had so much fun making poses and meeting so many great people. I'm going to really miss that. Thank you for making my second life something special. :)
I am currently have a sale on everything in my store...it's all been reduced to 50% or more. I don't know how long the sale will last. I'm selling my sim, so as soon as it sells, the sale will be over.
I'll still be logging in to SL from time to time and my poses will be available at XstreetSL.com. I hope to one day return, but until then, this is all I have to offer.
PS if you are interested in purchasing the sim, please contact me. I will not be selling my business, just the sim.
Love,
Zelly <3

Another excuse to wear green and SP poses :)
WEEEEE ¡!!
Okay, I know you were expecting some nice pictures to celebrate this day, but I just forgot. I am living in a place without time and I just didn’t realise till today that is 17th!! Sowwy! T_T
But .. I do have something nice, and this is one of the poses from our new collection High Fashion. This pose is perfect for those gowns that have a open side leg, just like the dress I am wearing in my picture:
This is pose number 2, I like the way you look, a cool stand and a very feminine way to put your hands, you are the boss! Totally!
Do not forget, our sale … Burlesque Queen II, these fantastic poses based on Ditta Von Teese ;)
Mmmm … what else? … let me think … to much Guinness isn’t helping to remember these things!
Ah yes … In April Striking Poses is going to be part of the Pose Fair 2010! YAAAY!! It's about time the pose community has a fair, don't you think? You won't want to miss this. We will have exclusive sets made for the fair and to help support charity. Mark it on your calendars!
Don’t forget we still have some free space for rent at Harlow … if you are looking for a nice shop, in a great sim, Harlow is your choice. For all information about it, contact Italia Villota our new rental manager.
And, I haven’t said a word before, cuz al l he stuff I am going thru, but here is my big big HUG! To Jordan, who worked with us for such a long time, and did an awesome job! I am missing her but I know she will not forget us! so dear J, thanks for all your time and dedication and we’ll be in touch … don’t miss me that much okay? ;)

Sneak Peek!
I’m back! … and not just me, Striking Poses too! We have been working hard these past few weeks to bring you the best ever glamorous poses.
I’m still dealing with the earthquakes and aftershocks, but thank God I am still here, Zelly will have a hard time getting rid of me! xD
I haven’t had the chance to welcome our new rentals manager, Italia Villota! … If you need anything in regards to rentals on the Harlow sim she is the girl to speak with! … She’s super cool!
Of course my post doesn’t come alone … no way! … I have for you a sneak peek … something fabulous, something fashionable … something HIGH! ;)
Lots of new stores are coming to our Harlow sim, for all styles, Italia will tell you later on more about it, but you can come along and have a look, just don’t forget your pursues! :P

Thanks for being concern :3
Lots of my friends have been asking if I was okay after what happened in my country, Chile, we got a strong earthquake level 8.8, after that, a huge Tsunami ... I am good, thanks God nothing happened to me and my family or house, for me the earthquake was level 7 and 3 minutes longer >.< ... but we passed in good conditions, I must say, I am a lucky person.
So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen...
I am thrilled to say she found her new "Jordan", Italia Villota, who is stepping into my shoes and will be taking over as Sim Manager and blogger for Harlow.
Tali is going to be an excellent addition to the Harlow family, and I wish her all the best in her new role. I look forward to watching her in action and seeing what she will bring you all each week.
As for me, I am still behind Harlow, Striking Poses and the wonderful stores I discovered and fangirl 100%. Plus I'm working with Zelly on another project now, so there really is no escaping me!!!
Good luck Tali! You have joined an awesome team and group of people to work with!
On a different note, we'd like to send Ake all our thoughts and best wishes. Ake lives in Chile and luckily escaped harm in the recent earthquake. Many others weren't as lucky.

Humpday on Harlow
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 #9Wearing - 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!
Pose - Working The Camera 1Wearing - Slouch (Store Gift) from Fierce Designs
Fierce Designs is another new addition to Harlow. With sexy clothing to bring out the playful side of you and raunchy shoes, you are bound to find something to tease and delight your other half...or maybe find them when you wear this around the grid! As their gift to Harlow, the Slouch pink sweatsuit is free in store and is perfect for a casual jog around the sim while you shop!
Pose - International Model 4 #10Wearing - Leprechaun Special from Magnolia
Just in time for St Paddy's Day (March 17th) Magnolia has released a sexy sparklie green number to bring out the Irish in you...even if you don't have any! As with most all of the clothing in store, you get several outfits in the pack. You can wear the fabulous top with jeans, two style of flexi miniskirts, a fitted system skirt mini and a sexy little pair of panties. There is also two styles of stockings included, so you can be the sexiest leprechaun on the grid.
Pose - Pulse Racer #6
Wearing - Grace in Silver from Catagory 5
If you haven't checked out whats happening in Catagory 5 for a while, you need to pop on in asap! Not only are the Grace and Kate gowns still only $10 each, but there is a fatpack of 30 soon to be retired outfits for only $29! Perfect for clothing an alt or helping out a new resident!
