LM for the 50% off Hair @EMO-tions

OMG the prices are amazing.. Please please please, we are hoping she will come to other grids.  SHE IS INWORLDZ but not with her complete line.

Men, the sale applies to male styles as well.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We caught up with Zen who has been holidaying abroad, to find out what she thought would be the look for the woman on the go.  She still likes the comfort and style of the Lindy Modern & Retro shoes, ( Delinda Abbott) boots worn in photo from Lindy. 

For a different look she wears the classic Felicity Shoes (Felicity Overlord)

Her dress is from the ever popular Lordiva (Java Fashion Designs) (Simone Udimo.  The owner Simone Udimo has been in business for some time, her followers are many.  Not only does she have a look that spans a multitude of fashionistas from all over the world, she keeps her line affordable.  There is a fee to join her group, but... you will recover that  many times over with the gifts she puts out for her "ladies"

Hair worn today, is from EMO-tions ... Zen was a very happy camper when we were at the site. Dedicated to her craft of looking good, she says a gal can never have enough  hairstyles.

Wednesday night, is country night and you will usually find either China or Q there, since both have a strong liking for that rocking country that is played there by the one and only dj Dick Pinelli.

This was DJ Dick Pinelli at Xmas.... getting in a taste of sweet.  As if he isn't sweet enough!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since due to technical difficuties, we are so late getting this blog out, we are going to show you some of our favourite pics from 2015.

Mr Mike String an entertainer we have yet to get over to see, he is one our to do list.  Should be on yours too. This was his lovely Xmas card this year.

The dragon from Inferno, done by the very talented Andy it is too bad that Inferno is now closed.. this dragon was a true work of art.

This lush piece of paradise is the build of Gaudin Himmel, there is so much to see, his underground fantasy world, the gardens, Victorian buildings, another must for 2016 if you have not been there yet.

 China who was going to open several shops, has decided to stay open at Spirit Nation, where she finds the ambiance more suited to her China-T line. where East meets West.

􀀋China Dream and Qyhat Harbour, have opened a line of East Meets West clothing for the Dinky community.  The line  will be called China-Q and is currently in test mode. The shop will be on the wharf in Dinkyville.

The collaboration should be interesting indeed.  We attended their first initial meeting to discuss their ideas for the line.

Front and back of a pending, sport theme. that Q wants to do.  We guess only time will tell how the two personalities will work out.

Meanwhile  there are shops and homes for rent in the Dinkyville area.  For more information please contact the owner of this community Pinky Cyberstar

In closing, in the pictures of China, you were unable to see the special necklace she is always wearing now.. (gift from her one and only Jettis of course, so we will get it in here.

WE wish you all a very happy, success filled new year.  May the new year be healthy and fulfilling.

Till next time

Designer Circle #87 and more

Even on holidays, we shop, there is always something going on, and a need for a new outfit, or pair of shoes, new makeup, whatever.... shopping is what we do.  Designer Circle just started with their 87th round.  If you are a cat lover, then you know that the black cat is always there to greet you when you enter the shop.
Essenez is offering the Manhattan shoe, (slink).. we are showing you their vendor poster so you can see the variety available. There is a Demo offered, please try it before you buy.

Ladies it will soon be boot weather, there is no getting away from it if you live in a country where there are 4 seasons. MU-SHI DOLL is offering boots that are very chic @ a discounted price while they are at the Designer Circle

The Designer ZOZ is offering up a very nice set of nail polishes for the Slink hands and feet.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*NB * if you are not wearing the Slink attachments, the items that are identified with the Slink icon, are NOT FOR YOU.  If you are frustrated with not finding products for your needs, Send the Design Shop a note card explaining that you would like that item for prim nails, they MIGHT be able to help you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We saw that there are new designers in this round, if they were there before, our apologies we missed them...  Check out their offerings and take a landmark to their shops.  In particular we liked what we saw from Ashmoot

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a Designer that we have blogged over the years, she is very "today" and always gives you something that will give you a special look to turn heads.  blah BLAH blah

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
** The designers spend a lot of time not only making their products, but in getting them ready for sale.  This means in the presentation. These days it can be a bit tricky, READ what they put on the vendor box.  Try the demo that is being offered.  If you see the shoes are included, look carefully on the box, make sure if the shoes are for the Slink foot that you know that prior to the purchase. If you don't have the Slink feet (and know what Slink foot attachment  you will need) then know that you will get the outfit and the shoes but the shoes will not work for your regular feet.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yesterday and today

What can we say, if you missed him last night, you missed a great show! You'll have to catch him at Poonanny's or Sweet Magnolia's or one of his other venues.  This DJ draws a crowd, you know he is good by the audience that is littered with other DJ's, club owners and music buffs from all over SL.

The evening progressed with a fun time enjoying the burlesque at Tango's Club, in the Cabaret room.  We don't know if this will become a regular or special event, next time, you will have lots of notice so you don't miss out, it was a lot of fun as you can see.  At Tango's it is not just about dancing, it is about a good time with friends,  Come and be part of the good times.

DJ Xanthia Marian Lisle

You love good music, music with soul, easy listening, music that will have you wanting to dance with your one and only, close and tender. Heart to heart.Then next you hear that DJ Xanthia Marian Lisle is hosting at Frank's or anywhere else, find your way down and enjoy the music.

I regret I didn't send this out sooner, I believe she is going to be signing off soon.  The woman is in constant motion on the stage, I was lucky to get this picture. LOL,  Check her picks for details of when and where she will be next.
You won't be disappointed.  She plays Franks on Wednesdays and Sundays.

Remember there is a dress code at Frank's... and a one time cover charge.

Franks Elite Jazz Club

The Eagles in concert - very well attended.  If you have never attended a musical event in Second Life, then you don't know what you are missing.  I didn't know what to expect and was delighted to find that I was entertained.
The music was good, the event was well attended and I was able to sit and take it all in without lag or fuss.

OK, I admit I expected to miss the electric energy that happens at a real live concert.  I've attended DJ's events before, but this was my first time to attend a show billed as a concert. Don Henley, Johnny Cale, Zeus Michalski, and Timothy B. Schmit all performed beautifully. Their animations were not wooden or robotic.  It was very well done.

For Fashionistas out there, the women were all dressed in high style,  The men of course were in various kinds of formal wear.  Not only did I get to hear good sounds, I was able to enjoy a musical fashion show =^_^=.  I'm not a dyed in the wool Eagles fan, but it was music I knew.  A most memorable night.

I believe they will be having a free week-end coming up, you can check with the management, if they  do, I encourage you to make the time to check this club out. 

Here is the limo http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Franks%20Place%207/108/228/30

The DJ for tonights show is Johnathan Hiess.  Someone had to put together the lighting and the music (sets) Kudos for a very entertaining evening.  This is the information that the club has in its profile.
