Is Mr. X Mysterious... Sascha's @ Swank

This dress has to be one of the most flattering dress of the 20th century. A tight pencil black skirt,  shaped black polka  dot silk blouse that is classic... Mr. X likes that and this is the exclusive dress by Sascha's Designs for Swank  called Abstract Dress Black and white  And, yes,  tonight I have the blues.. why... because I can.

Mr. X pictures a  sophisticated  woman...  that immediately  beguiles him... and, ladies I like that.... perhaps it is all about the hat.....  Abstract Dress Black  by Sascha Designs  comes with a color changing hud and is available for classic (wearing), mesh bodies.

So Mr. X let's go to a far away place... a place where we can just be in the dim lights .... a place where the drums beat... and then there is the heat... shall we dance together in the moonlight...  as van morrison said it is a marvelous night  for a moondance... and god I need  Mr. X and all that ... romance under the stars.....

Mr. X and Sushi Monster Truck by Heart Homes @ Creative Collectors Box

Although food trucks seem to be a new trend in America, they actually date back to the late 17th century when an early  form of them could be found in many of the larger cities on the east coast. Since then, food trucks have taken a  front seat in the world of American street food and are front and center in the part of an ongoing food revolution.  With that in mind, Aphrodite at Heart Homes has created the must have Sushi Monster Food Truck.

It is great fun to watch or to play a master  sushi chef and to make all kinds of sushi.  The truck comes with tons of cooking animations for prep work, chopping, dicing, rolling and even serving !  You can do this work in sequences making the experience realistic and fun. There are 46 animations and 22 props to play with !

 You can also stand and eat all the sushi that you want by touching a sushi item that attaches and then disappears at ease!  You can feed as many friends as you like and even rezz picnic tables and festive lanterns!

Low in prims about 24 and cute on both sides, the Sushi Monster is not only great fun it is a must have!

Mr. X and Ivy - Posh Pixels, OTB and DS @ Swank

A new fun find at Swank is called Hang with the Big Dogs by Outside the Box, designed by Kasslina Moonglow.  This rustic bench can be used inside or out... it is perfect for a porch on a cabin or in the interior of a rustic log cabin.

 The chair has a wagon wheel back and a plaid cushion in a light antique  pine finish.  The bench  comes with two beautifully rendered dogs and a grey tabby cat, a bucket and a sign that says it all... "If you can't Hang with the big dogs, stay on the porch."

And I am also wearing a tank top and leather pants called Ivy by Posh Pixels.  The pants have fabulous details... two zippers and pockets and oh la la skin tight. The pants and tank top are made for classic (which I am wearing) plus slink and maitreya bodies.  Best of all choose from 40 leather shades... yes... 40!

I love the swirling details of the tank top with its spaghetti straps and relaxed fit that drapes elegantly just above the waist of the pants.  Best of all both the tank top and the leather pants comes with an amazing color changing hud in the latest fall colors that range from black into various shades of blue, browns, reds, violets... gold... white... actually 20 choices that compliment the slacks!

Magical Finds @ Swank... HJM

Mr. X and I were looking around this month's Swank and found so many fabulous things perfect to embellish our ever evolving landscape and our homes... yes homes... we have several.  There were so many things to choose from that I thought I would blog a round-up of some of our favorite just to give you an idea of the multitude of things to be found at Swank.  For example, the low prim bird bath by HJM Designs called Nature Birdbath is ideal for any outdoor setting. It comes with flowers, a friendly deer, flowers and grass, a cute little red snail and even a dragonfly that circles the bath. Best of all, of this it is only 8 prims. Touch to toggle sound on and off. The birdbath is mesh and copy.

For a magical mood,  Magic in the Woods also created  by HJM Designs fits the bill with a little elf that seems to have a glint of mischief in his eyes... he reminds me of Mr. X who always seems to have that same mischievous glint!  This comes with a cute little elf sitting on a stump,  two more tree stumps, a mushroom, squirrel, pine trees and grass. There is even sound that you can toggle on or off.  It is part mesh and copy. Amazingly, this build is only 8 prims.  And, no the cranky elf on the stump is not, I repeat not Mr. X!!!

Mr. X and Aspasia *new* Wicca's Wardrobe

Intelligent, mischievous...night is her day, moonlight is her sunshine. You will flourish in the witching hours in  this gorgeous creation by Wicca's Wardrobe that is an exclusive @ The Fetish Fair  called Aspasia.

I love the corset top with the silver grommetted criss cross front lacing that are complimented by the shortest shorts ever with criss-cross lacing that certainly will cast a spell as all eyes will linger on you.

The long coat  that is open in the front and has a  deep slit in the back is perfect for unforgettable entrances and exits and can be worn separately.  It comes with a high belted collar with wide lapel shoulders.  Concealed in rich black velvet this gorgeous floor length coat cascades exudes the romance of mystery of all things dark.

Life's a Bench... TM and LoS BOS @ Swank

There is nothing more romantic than sitting with that someone special on a very special bench and  I found the perfect bench at Swank called Side by Side Rustic Bench with Rocks  by TM.  It   quickly became one of our favorites.  I also love the new outfit by LoS BOS called Torn Up Top and Overalls that is also an exclusive at Swank. It is available for classic and mesh bodies and has a color changing hud for the overalls and the  tank top !

This bench is perfect in almost any setting and comes loaded with couples and singles poses including 54 poses; 27 cuddle poses and 16 single animations, 8 sit for men and 8  sit for women.  It is also copy.

Oh and this new exclusive  by LoS BOS (Steele Sirnah)-- Overalls  and torn tank top is fabulous... it comes for mesh and classic avatars... I wear it both ways and best of all it comes with a color changing hud... it  is country girl meets city... grunge... but atm  I am wearing it  and  enjoying nature...

Two more swank finds are  Dulce Secrets Mesh and System Eyes that includes both system and mesh eyes and the rainbow necklace, earrings and bracelets that match with almost everything by HJ by Mystic Rainbow in Gold gold.

As the  last word,  did I mention the garden bench comes with a cat... I always tell secrets to my cat...I also  love the fact that is comes with daisy's and that I am able to sit  between two realistic looking boulders on a wooden plank. It is hard to believe that this is only 5 prims and is 100% mesh and that it comes with all those poses for singles and couples. And, all of you, please follow and like my rl cat blog  !! http://catadventuresandproducts.blogspot.com

Mr. X and Carla Jumo's Sept. Exclusive @ Swank

If twirling carelessly on the summer breeze interests you then the new  jumpsuit called Carla created by Jumo, an exclusive @ Swank in September is for you.  This month's theme is anything goes and Carla comes in two versions that are perfectly suited to fit almost any mood and certainly every adventure.

The solid silk jumpsuit has fine lines that emphasizes all your curves... in all the right places... if you know what I mean. I love the inset details of this version of this jumpsuit with its subtle satin variation of color making this uniquely alluring. Carla comes in a black, fiesta, flash, serenity and violent.

If you enjoy being called "muse" and are in a romantically playful mood then the lace version of Carla is certainly for you. You will get the party started when showing up in this gorgeous peek a boo jumpsuit featuring cutout detailing for a sultry yet sophisticated look. To shoot this blog I am using the new exclusive poses offered by Glitter that can also be found at Swank.  The minimal movement of these poses makes shooting a photographer's dream.

As with all of Jumo's offerings Carla comes with matching drop earrings and a fabulous necklace whose shape reminds me of a chinese opium bottle. The design of the opium snuff box is decorated in a lovely floral design and has beads patterned in a millefiori style.
