All White On The Night

What does one wear to the biggest party of the year, when the dress code required is white? It was only one choice for me, the Determined Coat by Digit Darkes!! It has the right amount of flair and drama, and you can dress it any way you choose! I wore jeans with it this time, but I have been known to flash my undies wearing it previously XD!!



The Aspire party went off with a bang! Full of new friends and old, gifts, fun and laughter! The new magazine's not bad either XD!



You can grab your copy here, and possibly the party gifts!! With designers such as Sn@tch, Callie Cline, HUB, HOH, Aoharu, Punch Drunk and more we were thoroughly spoilt. And I got to hang out with my 2 oldest friends who I haven't seen for weeks. Thanks to all the Aspire staff, and Ken and Kid for the bestest night eva!

Weekend=New Releases!

Yes it's new release time!! This hair from Diversity is the shit! It's perfect Ash hair, unfussy, blonde and kyoot!! You may still have time to grab a heavily discounted colour pack, just don't ask me which one, cos my lips are sealed!



I'm a huge fan of Jojo from Wigwambam, and get totally giggly and excited when she drops a new release on me. First up is this gorgy shorts outfit. I love the cut- out detailing, if you luff your sl bewbs, this one's for you.



Next are these incredible sweater dresses. You have to see them on to believe the amazing detail.



They come with tights also if you're shy about bearing your legs!! As with all of the clothes from Wigwambam, the textures are hand drawn and beautiful. They will be available at the main store in the very near future.

Warrior

Honestly, I don't know where to start with this new release from Ann O'Toole from Unique Needs!! I will say these avatars have been in the works since November of last year, and they are beyond incredible. First we have the Ghost Warrior. She's a fierce elf who captures spirits, I swear, you can see them move!!!

I'll shamelessly pinch details from the product info, lest I forget any of the pieces that come with this amazing pack:
The package is a complete avatar consisting of a shape for those who do not wish to modify prim attachments,
a purple fantasy skin with top of skull to ankles tribal tattoos
matching skulled, chained, and pierced and plain plasma tattooed elf ears,
Irridescent eye attachments,
a crossed bones nose piercing,
Love Violet Sexnotic Eyes,
A ghostly shirt top and panties for PG wear,
Flying Ghosts Skull Collector Necklace cape and upper wrap combo,
Silver Quad Nipple Chains with dangling flexi chains,
Upper arm spiked skulls armbands,
Ghostly Blade Bracers,
Death Stalker spiked skulled belt with flying ghosts silks,
flying ghost thigh wrap,
Spiked skulled and chained bitchin boots,
a ghostly skulls staff

In addition the package contains some alternative wear options:
Skull Collector Flying Ghosts Cape w/o upper wrap
Skull Collector Flying Ghosts Cape Type II w/o upper wrap
Death Stalker Belt w/o silks
Flying Ghosts Long Silks (Wear with Death Stalker Belt)
Flying Ghosts Medium Silks (Wear with Death Stalker Belt)
Flying Ghosts Loincloth (short)
Silks (Wear with Death Stalker Belt)
Elf Ears w/o adornments



Next is the Plasma Spectrum avatar. Isn't it just out of this world! I haven't done a thing to these pics except crop em, so what you see is what you get inworld. Every tiny detail you could think of is covered, with so many options it will blow your mind. In this pack, the tattoos come on separate layers as well as on the skins. So if you can't bear to part with your all time fave skin for the night, fear not!! I'd get this for the ears alone! My ear obsession is evident, and now I get to play with brand new ones XD!













































































I have it on very good authority there will be a goth pack coming soon. I for one can't wait to see what Ann comes up with next, at least she has a good excuse for not making more of my favorite shoes yet!!!

New Silent Sparrow Gift

Oh happy day when there's a notice from Hya, be it a new release or, like today, a scrummy new group gift! The place was packed, plenty of opportunity to muck up and have waaaaay too much fun!





Nope, it doesn't matter how old you are in Phil's Place, boxes still attach to you, and nine times out of ten, I'm there to capture it all on film XD!





We finally got it together to take some proper pics!! Thank you so much Terry, Danielle, Eden and Sentrosi for your patience, and of course to the lovely Hya for your never ending generosity. Terry did send me a pic of her and Sentrosi, but for some reason I couldn't save it to my HD, stupid computer!

Sylvan Suit In Rose

Shoe Whatsit

Well the lag was out of this world!!! But I did manage to spend spend spend!! I thought I'd show my favorite buys so far.



These boots are to me the most interesting find of the expo. They are perfection plus and the fact that I can leave footprints appeals to me like woa!! They have a nifty resize script, so fitting them is a breeze. You'll find these at the Lazy Places booth at the expo.



While you're there, pick up these babies too!! You can choose which footprints you'd like to leave behind, and the claws are retractable!



Sticking to the stomper theme, I picked up these Russ boots from the Curious Kitties booth. Love em!



And finally, these babies from Unique Needs. The Vengence Mary Janes are a spin off from Anne's Dolly Goth shoes. I love them because of the lack of invisi prims, so no weirdass pictures, or clashing alphas and such. And at only 150L, are my bargain of the Expo!

The Jewel In The Nile

Theres the one side of spring that's all fluffy and pastel, but for me there's the other side. Rich jewel like colours, spun gold or silver thread catching the sunlight and lush lips with barely there makeup. So it was those thoughts that inspired me today.Look One

My Top Five Dresses (So Far)!

I'm not normally a dress wearing kinda girl, but I do love dress ups! Also with the amazing shoes that have hit the grid recently, dress wearing is becoming easier for me. So I thought it would be fun to show you my favorites thus far.This was my first ever dress purchase, and I feel like such a princess when I wear it. The textures are of course out of this world and the rich colours are just sinful! Now, I feel like I'm wearing a part of SL history. This next dress is an awesome example of something you could wear to the shops (well I would anyways!) The legwarmers add an slightly edgy feel, any excuse for me to wear legwarmers, I love love love them. This is my most perfect beach dress. I own one very similar in real life, and it's yummy to just throw it on over my bikini and hit the beach, not Bondi, the surf is a bit too rough for my daughter, although terribly good for posing 0.O
My next stunner is an ode to Posh Spice! Love her or hate her, the chick has (mostly) oodles of style!
And last but by no means least, going back to my goth girl roots. This concoction is from Goth1co. I lived here when I first landed in SL. All the frills and froth mmmmm!
So there you have it. What are your top 5 dresses? Why do they hold a special place in your prim heart?

Ashia Is A Dancer

I'll admit it. I'm a frustrated ballerina! I used to dance in rl, till my teachers told me I was too big to go on pointe.........bastards!! I was a plump child, lost it all during puberty.....if only they had waited!!!! So any chance to don a tutu and Ash is a happy camper! Here I am warming up for my big performance....See the spotlight on me? Yup that's where it should be!! Out of my way bitches!! Spotlight is mineminemine! Ah time for this prima ballerina to rest.......flowers can be sent to my dressing room xx

A Quick Bit Of Fun

I got this bag of groceries from the Sixty Nine update group today!! Woot!! Even smexeh housewives have to shop 0.o!!

Say Hai To My Boi!

So I spent most of the weekend making a boi av. Let me tell you, expensive doesn't even cover it! The price of boi skins is nothing short of ridiculous, and finding clothes.........pft! Don't get me started on the hair either. No wonder guys have such a hard time on the grid, and end up walking round wearing jeans, no shirt and resembling a steroid addicted muscle mary. I managed a couple of looks, my fave being the Silent Sparrow/Random Fashions mashup! Dutch Touch also featured, I had an old gift box in my inv, which happened to have some boi clothes in it! Then there were the free gifts from MECHANISM, and almost free jeans from Elephant Outfitters. I'm liking this av!! It makes a refreshing change for me........get ready to see more of him!!

HUGE HAIR BABY!

This is a quicky. I love love love this hair. It's big, it's outrageous, it's Feral, from House Of Heart Designs. Not something I would usualy choose, but the photo ops are out of this world! Get ready to be bored to death by a million and two posts from me featuring this hair ;)

I Ish Aussie!!

So yesterday I finally, after 14 years and a shitload of money got my permanent residency in Australia. For me, so many chapters closed with one phonecall. Of course much celebrating ensued, I had my online celebration last night, my rl one will be at the weekend when all of my friends and family can be wrangled into one house at the same time!!! This morning I feel a wee bit fragile. I am a cheap drunk lol! So I thought what better to do today than casual, comfy clothes? This first one is similar to something I would wear in rl. It's the lovely textures that make this for me, and the wearable colour combos. The top is from Last Call, the cords from Celestial. Matches perfectly with my fave cuff from Kurotsubaki, I know, any excuse to wear it!! The next is a wardrobe staple. Beautifully cut jeans and a gorgeous sweater. Jeans are hard, but once you find that perfect pair........ooh it's heaven! The details on this sweater are again what make it for me, the buttons on the back are a super cute touch. Jeans from T.A.R.T , sweater from Mojo. Lastly, something I would wear to have lunch with the girls. A touch more glam, but still comfortable! Also by this point sl has broken my hair........pft. It's enough to make me emo. Shirt from T.A.R.T, jeans from Rahz

Canimal

I love Canimal! I love her clothes, I love her diversity, I love her talent. Where else can you be a gothic doll, skater punk, rock chick, or lingerie queen all in one store? This one place I come back to time and time again. The only limit is my imagination! I love her tattoos as well as the clothes. Some of the best colour tattoos on the grid IMO. From cute to broken......I have so many favorites!! I have spent a small fortune here, and no doubt will spend more! She makes me jump for joy!
