Spring has Sprung at Solange!

The first day of spring is tomorrow but I already have spring fever and this fun little beach dress is the result!

My new design, Spring, comes in 8 vibrant floral patterns. You get a flirty top, whispery flex skirt and skimpy little panties to wear underneath. On all layers for your convenience.

If you want to get every color you can save 40% by grabbing the phatpack.

Yay for Spring!

Happy St. Patty's Day!

In celebration of St. Patty's Day and the wearin' o' the green, I am releasing my fresh new design, Spring (in Green), for only 100L until midnight tomorrow (3/18/09).

You can find it at my booth at Relay for Life Clothing Fair (SLURL) or at my main store at Dream On Bay (SLURL) on the What's New wall.

More Solange! RFL Clothing Fair Goodness!

Today I added the additional colors available for the new design, Victoria, to my RFL Booth at the Clothing Fair. More new designs will be added as the week progresses, so keep checking back!

These 6 colors are in addition to the Red version of Victoria which is my donation to Relay for Life:





See you at the Fair! (Click this for SLURL)

RFL Clothing Fair opens tomorrow!

I hope you've prepared yourself, got your running shoes on, stuffed your wallet full of linden and have your best no prim outfit laid out on the bed to wear because tomorrow morning at 10am SLT the Relay for Life Clothing Fair opens to the public!





I am participating in the RFL Clothing Fair again this year and you can teleport to my shop on Sim #8 by clicking on this SLURL.




My new outfit, Victoria (in red, picture above), will ONLY be available at the RFL Clothing Fair this week and all proceeds from the sale will be donated to the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life. After the fair closes it will be available at my main location at Dream On Bay.

I think there are very few people who have not had the spectre of cancer touch them or their family in some way. My family is no different. The most recent being my stepdad who was diagnosed with cancer about four weeks ago and had surgery to remove a very large tumor about a week ago. It is beyond stressful for the victim as well as their family and friends to go through the process of diagnosis, testing and finally, treatment. I am sure many of you know this well.

They removed a tumor the size of a basketball (25 pounds!), and the kidney it was attached to, from my stepdad's abdomen. The prognosis is good, there was no spread, so we count ourselves very lucky that his recovery should go well. Other families are not always so lucky and I feel it is important for me to show my support by doing the small things I can do, including participating in the Relay for Life program in Second Life.

I hope many of you will join me in celebrating life by shopping til we drop and doing what we can to support finding a cure for cancer. Until there's a cure... let's Relay!

Highland Slackerpants

I'm a little behind in my blog posts but here, finally, is my latest release. The Highland Trilogy consisting of Highland Hipbanger, Highland Fantasy and Highland Wrap. This was actually released on February 10th. So now a month later I am posting it to my blog. Sorry for the delay but fortunately for me Photographing SL phenominal artist, Elysium Eilde and her partner in crime, Feles Seitan, did a wonderful expose of this design the day of release. You can read their reviews here and here.



WARNING: ATTITUDE REQUIRED!

Leather and plaid combine in a number of ways to keep things sizzling hot with tons of accessories and mix and match options. I"ve done three different designs all meant to compliment each other, or any other outfit you'd like to mix them up with. All in your choice of 9 colors or get the phatpacks for a 35-40% discount. (all 3 releases are color coordinated for even more mixing and matching between the sets)




HIGHLAND HIP BANGER: Make a statement with this tough sexy look in a variety of options to suit your mood. Includes - Gloves, Jacket (with and without bra inset), Leather short hip skirt, leather and plaid hip skirt, leather laced super shorties, buckled wrist wraps.




HIGHLAND FANTASY: A silk-like design but with a leather and plaid twist that suits any fantasy role you want to play in and out of the bedroom. Tons of accessories include: Laced and studded Bracers (2 variations plus clothing layer base included), barbaric style earrings and belly ring, 4 skirt styles varying from simple to fancy, short to long (includes belted style that can be worn without the panties), Buckled and strapped calf wraps, Studded armbands with dangly cloth, panties on all layers, bra top on all layers and a buckled strapped thighband to finish the look.





HIGHLAND WRAP: What can I say about this one? I love it, it's my favorite piece in the whole design. I've done it in 3 variations and with or without the chain necklace so it will compliment most any outfit you wish to accessorize with it. It's a variation on the cloak idea but with a highland twist. A must have accessory for anyone who loves cloaks or shoulder armor accessories. It's strapped and buckled, with tons of detail to please the eye. 6 different options are included in each color for your pleasure.

Merry Christmas from Solange! (and Nightlife too!)

As a special thank you to my Solange! Fashions group members and my Subscribe-o-matic fans I've sent out Gift #13 to those two groups (a bakers dozen 12 days of Christmas!). The point of this gift is to make my groupies feel extra special this Christmas and receive a gift not available for free to anyone else but them.

Because this gift is specifically for my loyal group members it has been removed from history in the Subscribe-o-matic. There will also be a temporary join up fee of 350L to join the Solange! Fashions group until the Group Specific Gift drops from Notice history (you can still join the subscribe-o-matic group by clicking on the signs in the store for no fee if you want to join one of my groups).

For those of you that aren't in my groups there are still 12 (and a half) fabulous fun gifts for you to find on my sim, Dream On Bay, until January 1, 2009. You won't be disappointed :)

Here's a glimpse of gift #13:



Thank you for a fabulous year! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Gifts #1 through #4 Recap

We are one-third of our way through the 12 Days of Christmas Gift Hunt and it's time for a recap of the gifts in the store so far and some additional clues on where to find them. Let's start with Gift #4 and work our way to #1.

Gift #4 is a phatpack of striped turtlenecks suitable for both guys and gals.
CLUE: This is a gift that is sure to lift you up high above all those saucy elves.




Gift #3 is a Christmas Jewelry Set
CLUE: Checking under chairs is sure to drive you to Madness.




Gift #2 is a lovely party dress in red and black
CLUE: This gift is a real bargain.




Gift #1 is a fun little decorated demon horn set that comes in two versions and are hidden in two separate ornaments.
CLUE for #1(1 of 1): This gift is a real gem.
CLUE for #1(2 of 2): This gift will require some crystal clear thinking.




The gifts are hidden anywhere in the Solange! Store, The Underground or @home Entertainment but I've decided against hiding them any place else on the island, it's just too much area to search! So keep your gift hunting to the store and courtyard of Solange! Fashions, The Underground maze of tunnels beneath the Solange! Store and the inside of @home Entertainment up on the hill.

There are still 8 more gifts left in the 3rd Annual 12 Days of Christmas Gift Hunt going on at Solange! Fashions. The next one will arrive in the store tomorrow!

Happy Hunting and Happy Holidays!
