Swirly Babysits

Hello darlings, Swirly here! Swirly was contacted by Posy Trudeau, who was desperately seeking a babysitter for her 8 illegitimate children. Swirly was only too happy to oblige, for a handsome payment of course :) Because Posy has had so many unwanted children out of wedlock, she is offering YOU the chance to adopt them. Just drop by *Love Child* Adoptions and pick up a baby or two of your own darlings. Babies are THE accessory of the moment, just ask Angelina!

Attending to baby's physical and emotional needs is of prime importance. Here is Swirly sharing a tender moment with White Kitten Baby whilst roasting over a blazing fire.


*Love Child* babies are so versatile, you can hold them or watch their big blinking eyes lovingly as they sit or sleep. Swirly has chosen to throw little Emo Baby for this picture.


Development of social skills is crucial for young babies. As an experienced babysitter, Swirly is only too aware of this. Here she is at a drunken party with several *Love Child* babies.


There's nothing like a little physical activity to help baby grow up big and strong. Panda Bear baby couldn't agree more!

Swirly Does Cyber

Hello darlings, Swirly here. Swirly has been in SL for two years now and is ashamed to admit that in all that time she has never cybered! Seereina Geiger from MekaNoiZe Labs has changed Swirly's ways with her fabulous range of futuristic clothing that is just perfect for you cybering types. Swirly can honestly say that with clothes as fabulous as these, she'll be cybering non stop from now on!


Swirly looks fabulous in MekaNoiZe Labs Invader in Silver, as she holds Stephanie Misfit's still- beating heart in her hand. Stephanie is wearing MekaNoiZe Labs Monokrom in Black, which is a very nice outfit that would look much better on Swirly.



If you purchase the Invader outfit, you also get the fabulous Invader Cyberlox Hair that Swirly is wearing here! And a pair of goggles! Swirly isn't wearing those though, she wanted you all to be able to see her pretty eyes.


MekaNoiZe Labs also makes frocks! Swirly would model the De/konstrukt Ghost corset and skirt for you if she had it, but she doesn't, so you'll just have to make do with Stephanie Misfit. The skirt is made from sculpties AND it glows! Since when did things start glowing in Second Life darlings?

All of these outfits are available in black and silver, and Swirly is hopeful that pink will be available soon. If you are feeling miserly, there is also the option to buy pieces from each outfit separately. Swirly was feeling particularly miserly and didn't buy anything at all, her outfit was a rez day gift from Seereina :) Speaking of rez day gifts, it's not too late to send one to Swirly darlings!

Swirly is also wearing WRONG's Buckle Boots and LF Chai's Midnight Skin in Ginger. Stephanie is wearing Philotic Energy's Shelby Hair in Black, Goth Mutation Boots from Skanks R Us, and Gala Phoenix's Classic Perse Skin.

The poses are from the Payne and Despair Couples Set by 5ifth Order, just perfect for cybering darlings!

A Very Important Announcement Darlings

Hello darlings, Swirly here with very important news! Today is Swirly's second Rez Day, and you all know what that means - lots and lots of gifts for Swirly from her adoring fans! Send them now darlings, Swirly accepts both inventory offers of fabulous presents and gifts of linden dollars, she really isn't fussy. Swirly has you all unmuted ready for the onslaught of gifts :)

In less important news, dear little Saeya Nyanda of Kyoot Army fame has finally got up off her skinny backside and released new clothes. Swirly will reserve her praise for this release, as quite frankly it has been far too long coming, and Swirly doesn't like to reward such laziness. Here are some lovely pictures of Swirly wearing these long overdue outfits.

Kyoot's Electro Ballet can be worn as a dress or a body suit. Can you guess which Swirly is wearing?

Electro Ballet comes with lots of layer options. Here, Swirly has chosen to wear as few layers as possible to draw attention to her bosoms. Swirly is wearing the brand new Color Changing Oracle Sunglasses from Tesla. They are scripted to do many things - unfortunately, orbiting stalkers is not one of them. Also from Tesla are these fabulous Athena Open Toe Stiletto Boots. Swirly just loves the magical resize script that makes them fit perfectly!

Kyoot's New Money Dress and Hat can be worn many different ways. Here, Swirly has just clicked "add to outfit".

Swirly is also wearing the Crushed skin in Nutmeg from Chai Skins. Jewelry is from Viva la Glam and Junk, and hair is by Truth and Armidi. The unfortunate cow is from Sculptie Paradise.

Now send those presents to Swirly darlings!

Thank God for Maternity Wear

While you're all busy photoshopping your pictures just to be praised on flickr, and pretending to be afk working hard on your latest AMAZING designs (We all know you're cybering, stop pretending that you and your dildo aren't BFF.), something tragic has happened! I have become knocked up again with yet another burden. Last time I was knocked up the heavens heard my prayers and made the abortion a success. Now, it may be a little too late to abort the burden, but I know plenty of cannibals (Swirly Cyclone) who are more than willing to rid me of such awful things; a baby and responsibility! Now in order to forget all my worries, I decided retail therapy would do the job. The only place I could think of was Artilleri because it's my favorite maternity wear store, ever! Antonia is good to us knocked up hookers.
A cute yellow shirt exposing those knockers and an easy access skirt for grown up time on the go.
The skirt is yellow like a banana. I love bananas! Especially when my close friends are borrowing my dildo or husband. :D
Oh, this is just a treat for all you married men out there not getting any satisfaction from your ugly wives. IM me and we'll discuss rates. ;)

Swirly - The Stalker's Guide

Hello darlings, Swirly here! A spate of disturbing incidents involving Julliette Westerburg aka Juju Armidi has prompted Swirly to raise the important issue of stalking. A high profile fashionista of Swirly's calibre can expect to encounter many stalkers, and Swirly has certainly had more than her fair share. You know how it is darlings, the adoring notecards they send, the visits to your private home to take photos of themselves in your garden, the instant messages declaring undying love. The mobs of obsessed fans converging upon you while you shop. These disturbed individuals will stop at nothing to be close to you, to gain just a brief moment of your time and attention. Yes my dears, you all know how it is.

There are good stalkers, and there are bad stalkers darlings. Julliette Westerburg falls firmly into the latter category. The relationship between stalker and stalkee can be mutually beneficial if the stalker is able to understand the needs of her prey. Yes, Swirly is talking about gifts. This is something that adoring fangirl Julliette has failed to recognise. Swirly has a heart of stone, cold black stone. Do you really think that fawning notecards and uninvited TPs can penetrate that cold chamber my dear? Do you seriously think that photos like THIS one, disturbingly named "Hunting you down, my love" will win Swirly's heart?


And upon receiving a restraining order from Swirly's lawyer, do you really think that getting Marcelle DeCuir (probably also a stalker) to send obsessive notecards and photos on your behalf will help? Especially when the restraining order clearly states that contact is only to be made via gifts of value, preferably the entire inventory of Tres Blah and Armidi? How many sledgehammer-subtle hints must Swirly give you before you send her GIFTS??

Fortunately, there are stalkers who understand Swirly. Well, one stalker actually darlings. Swirly is of course referring to Saeya Nyanda, an obsessed fan who has turned stalking Swirly into something of an art form. Saeya has worked tirelessly to win Swirly over, to the extent that Swirly now almost tolerates the girl. Swirly would even go so far to say that she sometimes misses Saeya, when it has been some time since she sent Swirly a gift that is. So for Julliette, and others contemplating stalking Swirly, here is a best practice guide based on stalking methods used by Saeya.

1) Send Swirly everything you make. EVERYTHING. You know she loves gifts.

2) Name your releases after Swirly. Swirly isn't purely a materialistic creature, never underestimate the power of appealing to her vanity.

3) Create custom recolours of your work for Swirly. No, don't wait for her to ask you to make a particular outfit in pink. Anticipate that she NEEDS it, and send it her way immediately.

4) Build a lavish shrine to Swirly on your popular sim. Decorate it to Swirly's tastes, not your own, and fill it with all the Swirly memorabilia you have tirelessly collected during the course of your obsession with her. Create fake photos of Swirly standing with Elvis and The Beatles, Photoshop her into album covers and movie posters. Add a disco ball and music for ambiance, and ensure that the bodies of Swirly's dead husbands are all buried nearby. Nothing will appeal to Swirly's ego more than an elaborate shrine my darlings, so never underestimate its power.

Obviously, many many people have named their releases after Swirly, and still more religiously send her gifts, even custom ones. But how many people have created extravagant shrines and anticipated Swirly's needs so completely? This is why Saeya Nyanda will always be Swirly's number one stalker, and there is no-one else who could match her disturbingly obsessive devotion.

Swirly heard through the grapevine that Saeya spent some time with Julliette to offer her tips on appropriate stalking. Of course, this came with grave warnings that Saeya will always be number one, and that any attempts to remove her from that position would come with dire consequences. Now that, my darlings, is true devotion.

Julliette, do heed this advice. Swirly is so looking forward to seeing a Swirly shrine on the Armidi sim dear, and an entire store at Armidi with items named after her.

Skintight is Alright Darlings

Hello darlings, Swirly here, with a special photo feature focusing on skintight fashions. Swirly does love a nice figure hugging outfit, and she certainly has the figure to carry it off. Swirly has noticed that there are way too many overly thin girls on the fashion feed who encase their skeletal frames with tight clothing, and it simply isn't right! Yes, Swirly means YOU Sofia, Mariya, Marni, Milla and........ the rest of you too. Get some meat on those emaciated bones because only a real woman can carry off looks like these darlings. Swirly will show you how it's done :)

Content Theft - A few thoughts on "raids" and protests

I've noted with concern some blog posts and in-world notices encouraging protests at stores that are distributing stolen content. While obviously well intentioned, I don't believe this kind of action is a valid first step in responding to content theft. Take a moment to read Sioxie Legend's perspective on this, and information about other ways you can help.

Please, if you find stolen content, contact the affected designers first, and give them a chance to file a DMCA. Alerting the content thief first by organising large scale protests at their store gives the thief a chance to move their store or start selling the stolen content under an alt, making it harder for the designers to track them down and take action.

While content theft justifiably creates a feeling of outrage within the community, ultimately it is the designers who are most affected. Please let them decide the appropriate course of action in response to the theft of their work.

Illusions - Fabulous Sculptie Hair!

Hello darlings, Swirly here! The delightful Siyu Suen of Illusions recently released the most fabulous sculptie hair and Swirly just had to show it to you. It is much, much better than anything made by lying scumbag Truth Hawks darlings.

Illusions hair features incredible scripted colour changing technology. Now you won't find anything like THAT at Truth dears. Each style is available in a variety of colour groups - Naturals, Jewels, Pastels, Crazies and Black Tips and White Tips. And when you click on the hair, you get even MORE colours to choose from! There are so many colours, Swirly completely broke her brain trying to count them all, and had to stop after reaching five.

Some of this hair could well be the tallest in SL! It's certainly almost as tall as Swirly, which is quite a feat. And Siyu hasn't just released hair for your heads darlings, she has also released some for your face. That's right, fabulous moustaches! Trust Swirly when she says that every girl needs at least one of these in her inventory for those special occasions. The moustaches are also colour changing. But even if they weren't, you wouldn't be able to find anything like these at Truth darlings.

There is more fabulous hair in store darlings, but what's the point of continuing this post now that you have all rushed off to buy The Swirly Cyclone hair? Just remember darlings, don't buy your hair from Truth.

Curio What?

Hello darlings, Swirly here. Yes, it has been far too long, but Swirly has had much more fabulous things to do than share style tips with her adoring fans. Live with it.

The marvelous Siyu Suen of Illusions fame told Swirly some time ago that she simply must visit Curio Obscura as they have the BIGGEST hats in Second Life. Of course, with Swirly off doing so many important and fabulous things, it took her quite some time to heed Siyu's advice. Swirly had the opportunity to chat ever so briefly with the designer behind Curio Obscura, a delightful young lady by the name of Pandora Wrigglesworth, who has a rather odd obsession with clocks and witches. As Swirly spoke with Pandora only long enough to procure some fabulous gifts, she really can't tell you much more about the dear girl. But that hardly matters, as this post is about Swirly.

Curio Obscura's Sausage Curls Galore hair is a delightfully bouncy, flexi style that magically changes colour when you touch it. Swirly is wearing it with the Mini Hat with Rose in Rose Pink, which clearly is not the biggest hat in Second Life, but is still rather marvelous.


This is the Clockwork Edwardian Dress and Hat in Pink. Believe it or not, the hat is included with the dress darlings! And what a hat it is, Swirly had to zoom right out with the camera thingy to be able to fit it in the photo. The dress is rather fabulous too, with puffy sleeves and a huge bustle that draws attention to Swirly's bottom beautifully. You can stop staring now dears. The dress is also available in Black, Blue, Copper, Red, Silver and White.


Now believe Swirly when she tells you, The Clockwork Brain is THE next big thing in high fashion. Forget Cachet, forget Paper Couture (well, actually don't forget PC darlings), you NEED a brain. Swirly found it quite a relief to not have to think for herself, as this marvelous moving, smoking clockwork brain took over all of the work for her. Swirly is actually naked in the picture above, yes, NAKED as the day she was born. The Clockwork Automaton Lady skin (shown here in pink of course darlings) saves you the bother of choosing clothes in the morning, as you don't actually look naked when you wear it. How clever!


Another fabulously huge hat at Curio Obscura is The Witchonista Hat. Swirly is wearing it in black but like all of the hats from Curio Obscura, it comes in a range of other delightful colours, including pink! Swirly is wearing it with the Frills Shirt in Sky White from Royal Blue, which has the most delightful collar.

There are many more treasures to be found at Curio Obscura, far more than Swirly could ever be bothered to show you in a blog post. Do drop by if you like clocks and witches darlings!
