Lana in red

I’ve been pretty busy over the holiday period with family and friends, and I haven’t been out looking for clothes as much as I’d like to.  So, I was rummaging around in my unopened folder for something to show you, and I came across this little red number.  This is one of those outfits that I have no idea which event or hunt I got it from, or if it was a group gift or MM board (I’m betting an MM board).

While I can wear most dark red things with my hair, this light red calls for the dye bottle 🙂

The dress and skirt are separates and come in sizes for Lara, Ebody, Physique, Hourglass, Venus, Freya, and Isis.  Currently, you can get this dress in-store for L$75, which is a steal seeing it comes with a ten color HUD to texture the top and skirt separately!


Snow sweater

Let me quickly show you this lovely little sweater dress that’s be languishing in my unopened folder for at least a year (omg)

It comes in sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Physique, and Hourglass, and the fit is great except for some little clipping issues with my hands.  I wear SLink Dynamic hands as I like the look of them and prefer the HUD options over Maitreya hands (plus I have an absolute dressing table drawer full of SLink nail polish appliers).  I wonder if Maitreya hands would have the same clipping issue?


Mix and Match – Kawaii Edition

I have a soft spot for cute… and then I just go nuts and keep tossing things at an outfit to make it cuter, lol

So here I’ve done my usual thing and just gone totally to town with everything except the kitchen sink. This first one is my unicorn look, with three major pieces from three vendors with three different unicorn patterns.

The Hawt jacket from Promagic comes in 30 prints, as singles and a fatpack, and is just for Maitreya mesh. I added some cute lace cuffs from Sweet Thing to it. The jacket fits just right to be worn without a bra or shirt underneath, if you are so inclined (as I am). The skirt is Brianna from CandyDoll, available in fatpacks of 10 solid light colors, 10 solid dark colors, and 30 patterns; or as singles, for all the major mesh bodies. It has a nice cut up one side with a long mesh tie. The shoes/socks are the Smexy Babydoll Heels by Candy Kitten, in fatpacks for 12 solids, and 12 patterns, for all major mesh bodies.

Now if you want silly cute, I got that too! The basis for this one is the Crazy Kawaii outfit from Envious. It is old school, for system bodies, but hey does that stop me? Not on your life! I use all the mesh bits and then add my own mesh top and skirt and there you go, one super silly (but cute) outfit.

The mesh bits of Crazy Kawaii come in five sizes and include the winged headband, arm and leg warmers, hoove boots, and backpack. I supplemented these with an applier top from Butterfly Design’s Pauline outfit; and my fave full perm skirt, Angel from Gunshot. For the latter, I textured it to match the knit pattern of the Pauline top.

To round out this round, here is a sweet-but-not-too-sweet ensemble built around the Celebrity Rebel leather jacket by Dirty Princess. This features exquisite detailing all around, and a proudly open front to display… whatever bra or shirt you might choose to wear. Or not. In this case I chose to wear (barely) one of my full perm bras from Cool Big Bird along with the Angel skirt from Gunshot which I textured to match the jacket’s color and patterns. The shoes are Candy Kitten’s Fairy Princess Heels that include the garters.

The jacket features a texture HUD of 20 pastel colors and a metal changer of silver and gold; it comes for Maitreya, Slink, and TMP mesh bodies. The shoes come with 14 styles in a HUD and are for all the major mesh bodies.

Who’s ready to come do some cute Kawaii-style shopping with me? Cheers!

Here’s a final FREE gift from the Shop and Hop Winter Event.  The event runs until January the 4th, so there is still time to shop!

This top comes in sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, and Hourglass.  And the Aaron version comes in sizes for the guys too (Gianni, and Jake).

And finally some winter specific clothing at a winter event lol

This is another FREE gift from the Shop and Hop Winter Event.  For a winter event, there are not a lot of winter themed gifts lol

This super short mini comes in both silver and gold, and it’s for Maitreya Lara only.

The fit is superb, and the use of materials is just right 🙂


Olive the Other Reindeer

Aloha my wonderful friends and Mele Kalikimaka!  It’s after the 25th, but the season of light and joy continues on.  There are some wonderful wintery outfits out there for you to find, and I have a few more to share with you.  Okay, so this isn’t Olive from the wonderful little children’s book, but it did make me think of her.  This is a beautiful novelty sweater, skirt, and scarf combo from Petite Mort available from We Love Role Play !

Each piece is sold separately, and available in eight lovely colours.  Each sweater includes a wonderful HUD with a choice of adorable animal patterns for the sweater — or plain, if you would prefer.

The scarf is the perfect touch to complement the outfit.  I also added the wonderful tights applier (Omega) and mukluks from Baby Monkey.

The season of joy will continue on and on, but this month’s We Love Role Play will be coming to a close!  Don’t miss out on such a wonderful warm cozy outfit!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Similar to last year, Blueberry is offering L$250 store credit at the Shop and Hop Winter event.  You click on the poster at the Blueberry stall at the event, then click on the sign at the entrance to the main store to claim your credit.  Make sure you use your credit quickly though, as it expires five days after you click the poster at the event stall!

I chose this bra and panty set for L$199.  This is actually an older item, and can be found upstairs at the main store.  Just because it’s old though doesn’t detract from the attention to detail that has rightly made Blueberry one of the more sort after women’s clothing brands in SL!

The bra and panties are separates and come in sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Physique, and Hourglass.  A 19 color HUD is included that lets you change the colors of the shoulder straps, bra seams, panty strap, and laces.  In these photos I have them all matching the primary design except for the laces, because, well, I like it like that 🙂

The bra has a knotted lace version (shown), and an untied version with the bow undone.

Here’s a closeup to show you the texture detailing, that includes seam edges, stitching, and eyelet details.  Fantastic workmanship!


Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Jaz!

Technically speaking this is another installment in the Mix and Match series, as this outfit is a total mishmash of pieces and parts… but as half of them are not even sold anymore, we’ll just run with it 🙂

I must have things from about eight or nine different outfits… but it was fun coming up with a unique (and, um, yeah maybe little bit sexy) holiday outfit. The lights even blink!

And just to show you that it’s really Ms. Claus who is running the show, me and the elves are gonna take a little break here from all the gift delivering! Oh, but thanks for the cookies and the milk!

Thank you all for reading the blog, and I hope everyone has a most wonderful holiday time, and a happy year to come, full of love and joy!

Oh, and, pssst, Santa…

Just go ahead and put me on that naughty list, it’s okay. Save everyone a lot of time!

Cheers my sweet friends! <3


Happy Yule!

Merry Solstice and Happy Yule, my wonderful friends!  It’s a season of joy and light, and magic surrounding all of us.  Kerryth at Spyralle has the most wonderful gown for the season, Coelis North Pole at the Mieville North Pole Event!

Another happy little treasure: I fell in love with EarthStones’ Poinsetta ‘n Bells necklace and earrings.  They’re just right for the season, and fit the Coelis gown perfectly.  Can you hear the soft tinkling of the bells as you dance?

There truly is magic all around, at Mieville North Pole Event and everywhere else.  Peace and joy to you all, my wonderful friends!  I wish you the very happiest of the season.  Hau`oli Lā Hānau!

Mahalo!  A hui hou kākou!
