Striking Poses at Footwear Expo! yay!

Finally the day has come, I am so excited about us being part of the Expo, the 2009 AL Footwear Expo that is taking place to benefit the Toys for Tots. Many poses designers were invited to take part, and of course we at Striking Poses were invited.


Back when Zelly first asked me to produce the adverts for the exclusive poses to be used in the expo I had spent most of my time trying to work out in my head how I would do them. She asked me “I want them to look chic”, chic? Lots of ideas what through my head and so many ideas I would put to use in Photoshop later.

I would like to give my personal thanks to the shoe designers who sponsored us, and who were kind enough to send us pairs of their latest collection of shoes and boots. I have to say a THANKS to the Bax Coen Designs team and to the Magnifico Exclusive staff, girls you made my pictures look so gorgeous and chic, just how Zelly had asked me.

A little about the Expo… the expo is to benefit the Marine Toys for Tots foundation, which you can read about here ^^

All the money raised from our first trio group pose "Foot Buddies Group Pose" will be donated to this excellent foundation. So, what were you waiting for!



Of course a trio group pose is not enough, not for Zelly, so here it is Tickled Feet I Chubby Pack, this collection comes with 3 sitting poses and 1 stand, they are super cool to work with, sexy and stylish, get yours now! (okay not all sitting but you know what I mean :P)



Our Second collection is Tickled Feet II Chubby Pack … 3 standing pose and one lying with a free bath tub! You can use the lying pose separately from the bath tub, you just need to be creative, these poses are so much fresh, casual and sensual.



Don’t forget to look around, and visit our sponsored friends :D I have already been doing some window shopping, and this will all end on Dec. 6th 2009. So I have a huge list of what I want. ;)

Get your Toboggan here! (and follow the red arrow xD)

I'm always blank when I've to write a title xD

Hello there!

(Si necesitas más información en tu idioma español, contáctame!)

A new week is here and I’m happy to tell you that we have a new release!

This time the pose is based on yet another beautiful and lovely girl, she is a singer and a very good one at that.

As you can see in the picture below, the fatpack consists of a mixture of stand up and sitting poses, as well as a kneeling pose, giving you a total of 10 poses to pick from.



During the week I’ll be showing you all some of my favorite poses!

You are probably already aware that Harlow and Striking Poses are organizing the most glamorous party ever in Second Life! That means all that designers that want to have a store in Harlow will need to act quickly as we only have 4 left and the party is nearly upon us! Have a chat with Jordan to find out more! We want to have a full sim before the party and we would love to welcome you as part of our home in Harlow! Don’t forget to contact Jordan Whitt in regards to any shop queries.

I hope you have all got our group gift now. As always with our group gifts the pose can be used as a group pose, or can be used as single poses. I wanted to take a photo to show you how you can use one of the poses on its own.

First we have the middle pose:



And here is the left pose:



Not received the gift? Then you’re not a member of the group! Hurry and join now, as when this week is over you will no longer get this set of poses for free, no you’ll have to buy them! Soo.. HURRY HURRY!

XoXo

iF yoU SEeK AMY ....

Hello there!

Today I will share with you some of my favorites poses from the colection "iF yoU SEeK AMY"... I must tell you that it was very difficult to actually put together these shots with these poses, as they are just HOT! and well I had difficulties keeping my clothes on, I just wanted to give my boy a call and get him so he could "have a look". Anyway here we are..

My first choice is pose number 9, the first time I saw it the movie "basic instinct" sprung to mind and I'm sure you all know which scene I'm talking about... I didn't want to copy this scene as I wanted to show even with clothes you can grab the attention of any guy. I would say it has a rude style but not any less sensual.



My second choice for today, is pose number 4. I can say using simple words that I would call this pose elegant, sensual and femenine. It is an excellent pose to show off some lovely underwear and wait for your man after his long day of work.



Well my fellow ladies, I really hope you enjoy our work. Don't forget to stop by our store and have a look at these fabulous poses!

Don't forget that we have a huge second main store for rent at Harlow sim, for more information, contac Zelly directly.


Have a nice weekend!

XOXO
Ake!

Hello Lovelies!

Another week is here and to make you all smile with delight we have a new release for you(WEEEEE!!!). This time were not basing the pose on a celebrity (Celebrities are on a break this week) this release has be created from the amazing imagination of Zelly!

The pose has a rather catchy name "iF yoU SEeK AMY" (see if you can spot the hidden word ;)). As always this comes in a fatpack collection and of course you all know our poses are of the highest quality and sold at great prices!



I have to confess that Zelly has crossed the line when it comes to the design of these new poses! They are just hot, sizzling HOT! Pop over to our store and try out these poses for yourself, but I have to warn you, you may get burnt! (Yes! they are that HOT!) Also feel free to take a look around the store and try all the other magnificent poses we have for you!

Many of you may already know about this weeks release, as you are a member of our group and because of this you receive the updates before they are posted on the blog. Not a member yet? what are you waiting for? We have a Subscribe-O-Matic that won't use any of your group slots and you'll be constantly updated with all things Striking Poses!

We have set up a subscribe kiosk for Harlow which can be found in the front of the store ... if you subscribe using the kiosk, you'll be able to get all updates about everything that happens at Harlow!



This is the kiosk and will be found around our Harlow Sim, of course this is also in front of the main store, come and be part of the most original and amazing sim EVER!

And to finish this post, I have something that I couldn't help but post ... my own picture using the dollarbie for this week, Amy Lee ... this is a lovely and delicate pose that is a must have for all you girls! It looks so gracious when you wear it with wings :3



As always you can find the dollarbies in the middle of our main store, just next to the windows in front of the stairs, there are also many more dollarbies for you and don't forget that at the back of the store are all the lucky chairs waiting for you to be a lucky winner.

During the week I'll show you my favorites (all of them I must confess XD) poses from this new collection, so keep an eye to the blog, and pay attention to Jordy, as she'll be posting be the rentals.

Just like a movie star ...

Hi everybody!

How are you all doing? I hope really good, as I am :) or as I try to be.

I am going to switch my male chip on, and think like a man, why? simple, today my post will be based on Men.

If you like action movies, well, I'm sure you like Vin Diesel, this hot strong guy that can do all, and makes us girls shake throughout (thinking like a girl again). You have guessed it, this collection is based on Vin Diesel!



I'm going to make this short, as I know men don't spend time reading, they just look at the pictures and if they are interested in something, they just take the URL and go to the shop, and I really hope they do this time and visit Striking Poses :D

But of course, what is a post without my interpretation of the poses? ... I want to thank my models this week Theodore Nacht and Draco Nacht, a couple of lovely and gorgeous guys who motivated me to produce these wonderful pictures.

Pose used here

Pose at the left Theodore using pose 4
Pose at the right Draco using pose 6



Pose at the left Draco using pose 7
Pose at the right Theodore using pose 2



A big hug to both of them, I really have fun chatting with you and doing these pictures.

And ... Come to Striking Poses and grab these sexy collection for men ;) if you are a girl, bring your male friend or patner :P

XOXO
