OK, sometimes I can’t help but wear red!

This simple yet sexy little dress is perfect for that eye catching moment.  I of course have to dye my hair… I don’t need an eye catching dress being a redhead lol.  But for you my lovelies, I’ll change my hair to something less spectacular so I can show you the outfit 🙂

This is the December group gift from BlackRose.  BlackRose’s group is FREE to join, and if you hurry you might find more than one gift available in-store.

This slinky little red number comes in standard sizes, plus fitmesh for Lara, Physique, Hourglass, Freya, Venus, Isis, Curvy, and Fine.

Time to find the red nail polish, girls!


Valentine’s Gift

This is a lovely gift for Valentine’s Day from BlackRose for their group members!

Fits are Classic, plus fitmesh for Lara, eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Physique, Hourglass, Ocacin, TMP, Fine, and Curvy, so nearly everyone is covered!

This red is dark enough for me to be daring and wear it with my red hair!  Yay!


Ivy Sweater

I seem to have been coming across lingerie and swimsuits lately so I thought I better find something for the season, and who doesn’t love a cute little sweater dress, tights, and boots during the colder weather?

The sweater dress comes in classic mesh sizes, plus fit mesh for eBody, Freya, Venus, Isis, Lara, Hourglass, Physique, Curvy, Find, Ocacin, and TMP.  I paired it with some leggings from a few years back, and one of my favorite pairs of calf boots!

Pretty in Purple

Purple is one of my favorite colors and every redhead should be looking for outfits featuring it!  Today, I’m showing you a group gift for Fab Free members that’s still currently available at the store at the time of writing.  Fab Free is FREE to join, so what are you waiting for?  Hurry and get yours!

There are some nice lace-up details on the back and the texturing is very well done.

The dress comes in classic sizes plus fitmesh for Lara, Freya, Venus, Isis, Hourglass, Physique, and TMP.

Having just got my new mesh face, I’m rather lacking in the makeup department.  I went looking for something with a palette that included purple and my usual neutral, but I came across an Omega applier that promised 216 colors.  There was no demo but as it was only L$10 I said “What the hey?” and bought it.  It turned out to be a color picker/applier, which is a really awesome idea!  Unfortunately, the texture is not the best, and it shows up a little around the edge of the alpha area on my face’s cheeks.  So I had to retouch.  Not something I can use for walking around, but certainly a good lipstick for the studio!


Aylen

Hello lovelies, today I’m showing you this month’s group gift from BlackRose!

This cute little top and shorts set comes in just this one color, but it comes in a load of sizes, including Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, Lara, Curvy, Fine, and TMP, plus the five classic sizes.  The fringed top is particularly well done!

And the fit, even without reaching for the alpha section of the Lara HUD, is really good (although you will want to alpha for dancing and such).  A fab group gift from BlackRose, and they are FREE to join!


Lauren Glitter

Some nice new things to show you today!

The mesh for this dress is unremarkable being very similar to other dresses I have, but the texturing is really well done, with some fantastic materials texturing to make it glitter nicely.  It really highlights where the dress is folded.  As it’s fitmesh (versions for *takes deep breath* Belleza Freya, Isis, Venus, Ebody, Maitreya, Slink Physique, Hourglass, Tonic Curvy, Fine, and TMP) it moves and shimmers really nicely!  FAC has done a great job, and to top it off, have included a six color HUD with it too!

Next, while I’ve had this hairstyle for some time (wow over a year!), I’m not sure I’ve ever worn it before for a photo shoot.  It’s rigged mesh and has a seven color HUD.  This is the only red in there, but it’s sort of close to my color 🙂

And lastly, we have this beautiful little hearts necklace from BlackRose.  This was a Valentine’s Day gift for their group members, but it was still available in store a couple of days ago.


Blackrose Leather Strapped

February’s group gift from BlackRose Fashion is this strappy little leather dress.  BlackRose is FREE to join.

The dress comes in standard sizes plus fitmesh for Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus, Slink Hourglass and Physique, Maitreya, and TMP.

The texturing is nice but I think the shine is just a tiny bit overdone.  Yes, it’s leather, but perhaps turn the glossiness slider down just a smidge?  These photos were lit with a projector lamp, which to be honest brings out this issue.


Paisley 60’s

A friend of ours DJs a lot of 60’s music, and I usually wear a sort of lacy flowing pants and top done with flexi prims to her gigs, but I was going though my folders and I came across this!

paisley-mini_001

Perfect for the 60’s beat!  It’s standard rigged but fits Lara without an issue.  Yay!

Iris

Some times I wish I had more group slots.  What am I talking about?  I always wish I had more group slots!  And yes, I could upgrade to a premium account, but I actually enjoy making a profit from SL rather than the other way around hehe.

Anyways, the reason I mentioned that was that I was struggling to hang on to some groups as there had been nothing on offer for quite some time, and then along comes this simply stunning mini from one of them!

This is in standard sizes plus fitmesh for Maitreya and Slink Physique and Hourglass.

Myconos

Another group gift today, this time from BlackRose.  The very generous designer has given us two dresses, with two very different textures.  The one I’m wearing here is the black lace version, and there is also a black floral design included as well.
