[]::Tuli::[] = Fashion Orgasm.

So after my therapist read my last blog.. he told me that playing around such temptations as sharp objects, is only gonna end up sending my ass back to the place with all the lovely padded walls. So in compliance of switching things up to be a much more happy-go-lucky fashion foward writer... I went out on a search and after hearing about this amazing store from my best friend in the entire world, Jill... I couldn't help but empty out every last cent that the state pays me on an entire new wardrobe from Tuli!

Tuli is a store owned and created by Tuli Asturias, who is not only amazingly talented, but extremely creative and very down to earth :) She has everything from street clothes, to vintage.. to formals and lingerie. Not only amazing clothes, but she sells skins as well!!

Sculptie Hats from Tesla

Tesla Miles has released a range of sculptie hats which demonstrate the creativity that can now be unleashed upon a single prim. Tesla hats range from sophisticated to cute and girly, and are extremely affordably priced from 50L up, which is quite impressive for hats of this quality. Many of the hats on offer are just 1 prim and the texturing is superb given that these are sculpted prims. All of Tesla's hats are modifiable so you can resize them, and copiable too which is a necessity for those inevitable editing stuff ups. Go grab them here!

It's summer.. time for the hotpants!

Bunch of new stuff I haven't seen reviewed yet, so i decided to declare myself Queen of Ze Universe and start blogging away. Yay shorts!

First off we have Karamia by Kara eagle
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
The thing that really caught my attention was the shorts, they're so adorable and high-waisted. Reminds me of something Kota-Burr would be wearing around. I suspect they are hand-drawn but don't quote me on that. They come in every shade you could imagine denim to come in and only a 100L too! Then we have the top which doesn't have much flare to it but it very well made and comes with all the flamboyant colors your heart could ever desire.
Sailor Denim Shorts - 100L
Empress Top Set,200L
Karamia at The Random


Next we have Lixz Wear Designs by Kenzie Craven
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Which I haven't even heard of this brand I don't know if it's because I'm a little hermit or she just hasn't been reviewed yet. But anywho I found her today,I've met Kenzie before and she is just the sweetest thing and I didn't know she designed! I'm blown away seriously.
First she has the Poka Bikini, which is beautifully highlighted and leaves little to the imagination as possible without showing off your brazilian. But if you have a full body tat you just NEED to show off, I highly suggest it!
Then in the right-hand corner of the photo we have the seahorse shirt accompanied by Kenzie's patchwork shorts. Once again beautifully highlighted very much worth 100L. These shorts remind me of something the bro's around reno would wear, the kind that ALWAYS wear flip flops and talk about some bro-ho or keggar they went to. But luckily these shorts are too short for them to wear without being considered a fruit so yay! I love these shorts they come in array of colorful plaid, theyre 100L each or 450L for all. I suggest all cause they're so kick-ass bro
Last but not least we have the Lux Embroidered mexicana dress, all i have to say is this dress is so beautiful and detailed, defiantly up there for favorite dresses. You can tell this dress took a lot of time, even the prims match the shirt which is hard to find nowadays.

Poka Bikini- 130L
Patchwork Shorts, 450L for all, 100L each
Sea Horse- 100L
Lux Embroidered mexicana Dress,250L
Lixz Wear Designs by Kenzie Craven

Now we have one of my favorite designers Tres Blah-Julliette Westerburg
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
GOD! Do i love Tres Blah! Julliette must be one of the most talented new designers out there! Here's why:
Uptop we have the Mod Outfit which is 125L for turtle neck in all layers, shorts and knee high socks. Something so simple I usually wouldn't like but Julliette pulled it off with beautiful shading and shorts that would make any floozy look classy! If you know me I wore this for like a week straight when i first bought it.

Then we have new shirts
Vintage Rose Tee- comes with the bib in different colors, 75L
Polka Dot Blouse- Normal high-collared polka dot shirt the goes down to the default template shirt line -90L
The Nerdy Vest- Worn over the Polka Dot Blouse (sold separately) can we matched with other cute undershirts in jacket and shirt layer available - 75L
Polka dot Sweater- Polka dot blouse except with a black belted over-shirt -100L
Denim short (charred)- Worn with all the shirts and back shown. VERY well done with fuzzy seams and everything, fully hand-drawn and only 75L!

Diamonds in the Rough

Got the Scoop on LilolOops?

They say you find gems in the most unexpected of places - and though I would advise against dumpster-diving more than would be sensible, it was my search for dirty urban wear that led me to a quaint little shop in the heart of a rubble-strewn post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Okay, not exactly. But LilolOops, a true punk-chic boutique belonging to DJ Lilo Jun, yielded finds worthy of a punk princess. Her separates combine the prints and textures of the 80's - leopard, fishnet, leather, velvet and lace - in a variety of vibrant hues for mixing and matching. The prim pieces are no-mod, but you may contact her for custom fitting for your avatar.

What stood out for me in the shop were her print leggings; in an array of patterns and colours, edged with ribbon and black or coloured lace, these are possibly the most fashionably eclectic I've seen in SL to date.


One can't but love the cut of her tops, coupled with her choice of prints:

Black Dentelle Leggings, Black Dentelle Skirt, and Zebra Top from LilolOops; ETD Heart Bracelet in Black (V-day giveaway); Heart Famiglia Remembrance Necklace by Celeste Pinkney; Oh! What a Neat Boutique Slouchy Boots in Black.

Black Fishnet Top, Japanese Flowers Skirt, and Black Fishnet Leggings from LilolOops; Shiny Things Old Laceup Boots in Black; Artilleri Red n' White Bracelet, ETD Heart Bracelet in Black.

Lilo has been working in graphics and web design for ten years, and it was only natural, she said, to want to begin her own clothing line once she started playing SL. She creates mainly what she can envision herself wearing rl, although her influences include comics and Japanese animation.

Purple Pea Top, Custom Circles Jeans, and Black and Purple Legwarmers from LilolOops; Cailyn's Long Drop Heart Necklace in Silver; ETD Heart Bracelet in Black; Oh! What a Neat Boutique Slouchy Boots in Black.

She herself is an assistant audio-visual director in real life; in SL, she is, along with other artists, djs and musicians, involved in a collective project known as KBPS. Lilo and her group hope to fund the KBPS project through sales of their designs. Affordably priced as they are, it won't hurt your wallet to help them along a little and walk away looking fabulous - it's a win-win situation.

Lala Moon Hair by Ruru Nagy: "Dancer"

As for my second find, last week I discovered Japanese hair designer Ruru Nagy's store, now called Lala Moon. Ruru may be new, but her styles show a great deal of promise, and her "Black" hair texture was one of the smoothest, most lovely dark chocolate hues I'd seen from among the newer hair designers. That, coupled with the incredible flexi ponytail on her style "Dancer" was enough to warrant a purchase on the spot:



This hair almost drifts on the breeze with each movement, and looks soft and silky-smooth to boot. The only drawback is that the alpha textures will render the ponytail invisible from some angles if say, it's viewed against your prim skirt. There is a decidedly lustrous quality to her textures that is more rendered-looking than realistic, especially on the lighter tones, but as designers such as Tohru Kanami have demonstrated, this can make for a more polished look than ultra-realism can achieve in a 3d game such as this.


Ruru's styles were originally no-mod, but she was extremely accomodating and open to suggestions and promised to make all the styles in her store mod for us hair addicts. Mind you, I don't pride myself on being an enabler - but it's hair, and it's gorgeous, who cares?

Full of Philotic Energy!

Now I know I haven't been out of my trailer in a while, but I have come across something worth stepping over my wife's empty beer cans for. Designer and all-round babe, Aemilia Case, has just opened a new store - Philotic Energy. Aems's other retail endeavors include Brickz pre-fab urban store-fronts and co-ownership of Lemon – Shapes That Won't Leave You Sour! Along with several other projects.

Philotic Energy stocks Aemilia's prim accessories – belts and bags textured with a stunning attention to detail. She has clearly worked very hard on the textures for this Leather Portfolio Bag (shown here in brown but also available in black) and the tiny stitches, perfect zipper and realistic wear marks are the result. Pictured also are the stylishly simple Bar Belt and Dirty Legwarmers.



The Whippet Walkabout is a very cute back-pack with more of Aems's pretty, hand-drawn textures, multiple pockets and flexi accents. I found all of the belts at Philotic Energy to be much easier to fit than most other belts that I've tried. The Canvas Belt comes in several colours and is simple and classic – wear it just lazing by the wading pool or dress it up for your partner's next court appearance.

The 3 Buckle Belt and the Compass Belt are both very cute, quirky belts that resize exceptionally well considering their irregular shapes. It's so nice to find a multi-buckle belt that can be resized without too much distortion.

OK, I have to go turn Stephanie before she swallows her own tongue.

Savvy? The next big thing in Maternity Wear!

Savvy?
The best thing that's happened for us knocked up hookers since abortions!

Dakota Buck! There are lots of things to say about Dakota Buck. One, she is married to my ex-wife, Stephanie Misfit, and two...she's the next big designer in Maternity Wear. I first looked at the clothes and thought, no, not maternity wear, but I tried them on and to my surprise they were the perfect maternity wear.

I have never been so happy
to have a burden inside me. Without that burden those clothes would not look so perfect on me. I really owe Dakota Buck a lot, and so do the rest of you knocked up hookers. It's not often a designer spends their time working so hard to perfect maternity wear, but fortunately for us, there is a Dakota Buck in our world. <3>


Why not spread your legs wide open and let that filthy man fill you with his seed?
Look how cute you can end up looking. :)

Gutter Boots

GutterBlood Spoonhammer is an interesting guy, one of those Second Life characters you meet who leaves quite a lasting impression. His talent and creativity are also impressive; his range of boots available under the Gutter Boots label show a high level of craftsmanship in a style that could perhaps best be described as post-apocalyptic salvage. Gutter doesn't appear to have done any heavy promotion of his products, but has vendors at Homicide Designs, Beckenbauer Productions, The Wastelands and Imogen. Gutter Boots are unisex, but much to Furiae Blackthorne's disappointment, they may be just a little too big for kids. Anyway, here's a small sample of the range of boots available.

Nasty Nasty Boots
Proletarian Toolbelt, Welding Mask and Blow Torch from Gritty Kitty; Skinny Ankle Jeans by Indie Rainbow; Cuts, Oil and Grease Stains from D3volution; Dare Hair from Naughty; Aitui Advance Skin

I Dream of Swirly

Hello darlings, Swirly here with yet another FABULOUS outfit for you all to drool over. The divine Leetah Moxie from Curl Up and Dye has collaborated with Serenity Aubret from Worlds Apart to create every girl's dream - a complete Jeannie Costume which includes 4 shades of hair, the Jeannie costume, and an animated hand held Jeannie bottle which anybody can click on to make you bow to them, it's just like being back in Gor darlings! But not only do you get the absolutely gorgeous costume, you also get a large Jeannie home complete with seating! That's right darlings, YOU can live out your childhood "I Dream of Jeannie" fantasy right here in Second Life! Although of course, you could not possibly hope to resemble Barbara Eden as much as Swirly does. Swirly just cannot wait to wear this costume on her next trip to Gor, here's hoping she isn't force collared and sold into slavery, those poor Gorean Masters just won't know what hit them!
You can see more pictures of this fabulous costume and the Jeannie home over at Appearance Mode, and pick up the set yourself for only 800L at Curl Up and Dye.

*smooches*

The A-List from Lovey's Boutique

Yay! Something worth putting on a dress for - pretty new skins from Lovey's Boutique! The A-List is a collection of 4 makeups which Lovey has named after friends; clockwise from top left are Ashlin, Antonia, Aradia and Aemilia. These are of course available in 5 skin tones, and are very competitively priced at 900L per single or 2400L for a pack of 4. Here's hoping that Lovey manages to work her way through the whole alphabet in releasing new makeups for her skins - I would recommend that the next collection not be called "The B-List" however.

It really IS all good...for us knocked up hookers. :D

I've always thought It's All Good was a nifty store, but now that I am knocked up, it has quickly become a favorite store of mine. It has a ton of great clothes for us knocked up hookers and for decent prices (which you need when your significant other has suddenly gone cheap! ) Also in the store is a wide range of shoes by Kimberley Casanova that go well with the outfits by Camie Cooper.

These fantabulous pants I'm wearing come with the outfit called Black & White ( Zazi ) ( which is the outfit I'm wearing in the picture on the upper left. ) These pants can be worn with almost any top and flatters that burden of yours. I'm wearing those pants again with the top called Striped Button Beaters which comes in very cute colors. I absolutely love these pants and I'm constantly wearing them all the time now. And no, not because I have no money and my husband won't give me anymore to buy more clothes. Not the case at all. Hmph.

Also, look how absolutely classy and cute I look for carrying a burden in this really really cute dress by Camie Cooper. Ugh, I just don't understand why I see all you knocked up hookers wandering around looking so not cute when you can dress pretty like me and look so adorable. Just because in nine months your life is going to be absolutely ruined doesn't mean you have to look the way you're going to eventually feel in nine months. ^_^


Anywho, it's getting hot outside! And just because I have to deal with morning sickness due to this little burden inside it won't stop me from hitting up the beach and checking out hot studs. I've found the perfect bikini to wear at the beach and it is
also made by Camie Cooper. It comes in several colors and Kimberly Casanova has created cute matching sandals that go perfect with the bikini. ( As you can see me modeling below. ) But for odd reasons, guys do not try to pick me up when I'm looking totally hot in this bikini. I really wonder what it could be, what do you guys think?
