Adam n Eve do Valentines Yummies

Sachi Vixen and Damen Gorilla of Adam n Eve have done an incredible turn around from their regular 'theme' items they are known for.

If you haven't explored Adam n Eve in recent months then you are in for a shock, Sachi has added some definite saucyness to her style of late, and Damen has enhanced that by his incredible workmanship on shoes and accessories.

I happened to be on my way to the store earlier today for a quick look around and got an IM from a wonderful friend *waves to Efe* who wanted to look at some skins, and asked for some suggestions.
I tp'd her to join me, and while I was in the store I was lucky to be in IM with Sachi and mentioned I needed to update my latex that she has done recently- I got all the 'what about these' folders and now I don't actualy know what ended up on the shelves lol-so while Sachi was correcting that for me, she dropped something else on me, and it was INSTANT LOVE!.

Now yes I had planned to strike a pose in latex this evening but there was no way in the world I could not show off this dress, Decollage by Adam n Eve is a stunner, the fabric is just divine and the style overall is beautiful. Plunging back and front which is a favourite for me, especialy when wearing Pandora Skin- Sasy Make-Up :P -also by Sachi which has the most beautiful back detailing.

The dress is LIMITED TIME ONLY! which kind of makes me weep, but the reason being that the wonderful sash and waistband has subtle lovehearts on the print, in keeping with the valentines theme. I personaly want to see her do the same dress without hearts in every colour imaginable, because the fabric is soooooo sexy it caressed my skin and got me all geared up for romance, which is the point, right ?.

What are the other reasons for the love? well let me tell you lol , one thing that just screamed at me was the fact that the pants looked wicked without the prims, and I got a whole other look out of a gown, which is always a bonus in my mind. So a quick change of hair and I was ready for a night of shaking it at some fabulous club somewhere. The other brilliant thing about Adam n Eve is that there are DEMO's, all the clothing, skins and shoes all have Demo's so that you can be totaly sure you are going to love what you get.

So whether you have a date for Valentines day or not, this is a Gown-and pants-set- that you will get so much enjoyment out of.
Now speaking of Shoes, and I was*points to the paragraph above* Damen was in the process of completing the matching shoes to these Gowns and I squeeled in his box 'Gimme Gimme' -I am so ruuuude I know, but he luvs me, they must, there is a dart board with my pic on it in their studio *giggles*.

But I had to have the matching shoes because Sachi was being naughty and sent me a pic already, so there was me in brown casual shoes running around in a gown waiting for them to be finished, and then they came and wooot.

These VSP shoes will also only be available until the end of Valentines Day, so get thee to the store, all sculpties and divine contrast heels on the deep red version-because of the contrast in the gown also they look fab with either Gown-, and I just adore the mini sculptie heart charm attached to the back.

I needed a new Up-Do for this Gown, just because any reason is a reason for new hair lol, so I popped over to Frangipani , and as I had never been there before I was really impressed with the red pack having such delightful assortments of red in it, Lauren I am wearing in both the Sangria and the Ruby and the style is a lovely side swept bangs style with a nice side loose bun, accentuated by the Grey tipped Black Hair Rose by Essentia.

The second look with the pants needed some hotness so I went with the ORIGINAL Bombshell style by Armidi , I have no idea how this style may or may not have changed, but from what I have seen, either way its still a gorgeous do.... I so have plans to do a post soon on Armidi because I have an interesting theory about the shopping in that sim lol its all good I promise :o).

To finish up this fabulous Valentines or any time look, I opted for the Jet Set Diamonds set by House of Nyla because I have wanted to find a reason to show it off for ages, and what better way than here lol. Nyla Cheeky does some beautiful work with beading both in RL and SL and it shows her love for the craft in her incredible Cloche hats and this stunning Jewelry set.

I love a good choker and beaded ones are just a delight, the matching bracelet is lovely and the fact there is no blinding bling is a bonus, these are just beautiful pieces of jewelry and you can see the detailing on the pieces, the way you should be able to.

So in preparation for the upcoming day of romance, go and take a look at the incredible pieces shown here today and remember DEMOS,DEMOS,DEMOS

CKS Designs and the Great big Treasure Hunt

Ok so I am back, and I know that a few of you missed me-because I keep hearing about it lol-I have had this blog sitting here for a little while and I was going to wait until I cleaned up my inventory, but then Kit started screaming at me in offlines and it was time to dust off the posestand.

So first post of the year is a new release by CKS Designs, Kit Maitland-Oh how we in our household love her work-The new release is called Hard Candy, and not only is it a fabulous Valentines themed ensemble, BUT! for one day you will have the chance to scoop it up for free.

The lovely Kit is one of those generous people I mentioned on my side welcome, and she gave me this set and the one other I am showing today, Hard Candy is a fantastic peachy pink set, with not only the one adorable pair of cute panties but 6 all with the hard candy we all remember from our childhoods featured on the bum.

Be mine, heartbreaker, ILU, Kiss Me, Love Bites, Squeeze Me are the yummy slogans on the panties and hmmm 6 pairs only, me thinks that Kit has made one day panties free day *giggles*- I am so sure all the men in the grid went WOOOHOOO, I know mine has already declared his love for her today.

Reason being is that Kit has this little trick, she makes her little bitty skirts using the jacket layer instead of pants layer like most, which allows for panties to flash and with her sets like this new one and detention an older one its cute and sexy. This set not only comes with that type of skirt and the adorable panties, but also 80's style anklet socks with ruffles... the adorable sweater comes on undershirt and shirt layers and the heart cut out is just fab, all year round.

What I love especialy besides, EVERYTHING! is the sleeve extenders on this top, made on the gloves layer, great idea and just adds a kind of cosy charm to it. All of the usual fabulous extras are included, like her posestand so you can make any adjustments without fishing around for one, the picture of the set so you dont have to remember everything you own lol, and the incredible Smart Skirt option in a seperate skirt- love that you have the choice without having to fiddle- and of course her notecard describing her 'Look' detailing who, what, where how and when for each item that she didn't create herself.

Now when I ran to wear and saw the colour, I looked at Kits pic to see what shoes she wore with, more out of curiousity than anything else, they were white and I knew immediately what shoes I would wear, because he colour was identical and the shoes had saved me on another occasion when coming across the same pink.

Enkythings Menisa shoes are Enktan Gullys' first sculptie shoes and they are marvelous, the texture is a soft suede leather look-on my screen anyway lol- with beautiful stacked wood heels that are rich in brown tones, and just look how perfect the pink matches up, so that if you decided to go without socks you are colour co-ordinated to perfection, you can check out the Demos' in his main store or even grab them using OnRez.

Quick note on OnRez, if you ever want to see if a designer you already know has a store on the site, just use the regular site url and after com/ type in the designers first name _ last name and you will find them much faster :o) .

The hair in the pic is by Here Comes Trouble creator Babyboo Glitterbuck, whos' hair I just love to bits, I was invited over to her studio in the middle of taking pics and of course Boo was not suprised enough to even ask why I was encased in a prim red ribbon lol. The hair is the wonderful Vesper style in Dirty, which is one of my favourite blondes, and be sure to keep a look out for the incredible hair and other goodies she has got coming soon, I seriously swooned.

Now about my skin, ahhhhhh Minnu Model Skins released the Third Generation Skins recently with the extended face make ups, some slight changes to the eyebrows and some other beautifying details, and as soon as I finaly got a chance to try them on it was instant love.

If you didn't get the chance to see the incredible movie Minnu Palen made for the release you can view it HERE! and damm if your prone to easy exitability brace yourself, Minnu makes the screen perspire. I am wearing the MMSPale NF -Clean skin in this picture and the soft make up is just perfect for not only this outfit, but for those of us who work in SL and need a softer look for every day, but still want something that can go into evening and still be incredibly sexy.

One of the other make-ups in the extended range is the MMSPaleNF Aero , with its stunning red lips and beautiful eye make up that I am wearing in the next pic, and while I am on the subject of Eyes and MMSkins lol my Green eyes are from there also, Minnu recently updated all her eyes to give them a wetter more natural look, and they are so fab I bought a few colours and yet I only wear green.


This next set by Kit Maitland of CKS Designs is called Wrapped, go figure lol, now this little number is definitely something your valentine is going to enjoy unwrapping.

The incredible ribbon textured top is on all layers- I can so see that becoming this years censor top on occasion-and the red is silky and vibrant, tieing beautifuly at the front in a big yummy bow, the gorgeous sheer red panties are a fuller fit and a delight with their pink and deep red detailing and are a fabulous addition to your lingerie inventory.

Traveling further down I squeeled when not only were these stockings just too cute but they had seams, I adore seamed stockings as I have always worn them in RL in the past when wanting to totaly uplift a look to sextabulous, and not that this set needs that at all but oooo it's a delight having them and again a great addition to your closet, even though a themed set the pieces in it just keep on giving.

A few weeks ago I stopped by Storm Schmooz and checked out the shoes I had seen blogged so beautifuly by many talented bloggers, it caused instant drooling and I had to grab all the demos because I knew that Mel would want in on the excitement. I actualy got a chance to talk to Storm for a few minutes in IM about some vendor pics being priced for thousands of lindens-yay loved that bug- and he was very charming and easy to talk to.

So when we went back I was treated by Mel to the Laque in Red as shown and the incredible pink you will see in the future, these shoes are divine; not only are they sculptie goodness but the texture is rich and delish, the shape of the shoe is very conservative and when mixed with the colours available in that shiny lacquered look its just hell sexy... kind of like an episode of School Mistresses GO Wild! - I'm sure there is one of those in the making lol.

So when I saw the rich shine to this wonderful Wrapped set, it was a no brainer on what shoes to wear with it. The hair is again by Here Comes Trouble, a wonderful concave cut with vintage style bangs that I love called Evette. Make sure you try on as many incredible Demos when you visit HCT, but also grab the seriously wicked fatpacks she has for 1L at the entrance to the hair section. My all time favourites are Mallory and Saleen of the 1L styles.

Now there are so many things that I ALWAYS use when blogging and doing my everyday things, one thing that you will remember some of you, and those that know me is that I always wear Hair Roses/Jewelry by Essentia. There are 57 of them in total and they are all beautiful and I do hope you stop by Fiachra Lachs' store and check them and his beautiful Jewelry out.

As that is the case and also the same creators of poses will get mentioned every time I am going to make the bottom of my post one big credit to those creator/designers with their slurls etc, even though there might be a day I don't use one stores stands in that particular post, I can pretty much guarantee I went through them all to get there, so they deserve appreciation for giving me so many choices.
