Mr. X and Brandi @ Urbana featuring *Swank* Hot Fuss!

Lurking about... I guess... the feeling of curiosity is inexhaustible energy....most of us feel we are guided by reason as a norm... but.. some  of us  don't accept the norms -- we are guided by impulse.... and city lights... loneliness and desire....

AND, when all else fails... then there is always music that makes our hearts  and minds float....and memories that drift in like the high tide  bursting against the shoreline during the full moon... or a late summer hurricane... when the winds swirl and the the sky is bruise grey....


Tonight wearing Brandi Shorts and Heather Tied Tank Top by Hot Fuss that is an exclusive at Swank.  This is made for mesh as well as classic avatars.  The top comes with a color changing  hud that includes solid colors and dots...all are beautifully made textures.  I feel like a fearless adventurer...  verging on the realm of impossibility... converging with the absurd... and we all know there is plenty of that to pass around... no shortage of the absurdity of life...or is there... and thank god for Mr. X !


I am also  wearing another  Swank Exclusive by Semi Precious called Brenna.  This exclusive is available in Nine  color changing huds  each one also has  with metal change in: Antique, Silver and Gold. The hud offers a multitude of colors including: Black & White HUD - White Onyx, Hematite - JetBlue HUD - Aquamarine, Turquoise, Lapis Lazuli - Green HUD - Peridot, Jade, Malachite - Orange HUD - Flourite, Goldstone, Amber, Pink HUD - Rose Quartz, Morganite, Watermelon Tourmaline - Purple HUD - Sugalite, Tanzanite, Amethyst -  Red HUD - Jasper, Garnet, Spinel, - Yellow HUD - Topaz, Citrine, Tiger's Eye.

Mr. X and Culco *new* @ Sept. Swank

This is one of the best silhouette dresses I have seen created by Culco called Cowl Back Dress that comes in a rich stretchy satin blend in black of course. This cute dress is an exclusive @  September's fabulous event known as Swank. The Cowl Back Dress  is the perfect length and is beautifully proportioned. The added  bit of netting at the neckline gives this sleek mini a turn of the century feel with a dash of nostalgic mystery.

 You will get "the look" you know the one I mean -- up and down... head to toe -- the moment you put on Cowl Back Dress.  You know this of course, the dress is fabulous...and a perfect little black dress.  



I adore a dress that looks as good from the front as it does from behind... and Cowl Back Dress by Culco does not disappoint 
with its plunging back. This is the dress you have been waiting for to swing slowly into Indian Summer... where all eyes will be on you.

Mr. X on the "fringe" Kate by Journey @ Marvelous Events - Prism & Special Event for Italy's Earthquake

Marvelous Events has started its new round for the month and is offering some wonderful exclusive items like this lovely leather dress called Kate Fringed Dress by Journey created by  Prism. This dress comes with a color changing hud in sharkskin, lush meadow, riverside and dusty cedar. It is made for  slink , maitreya and classic bodies.


Mr. X was fascinated with the long fringe and the zipper detail in the back.  This is the kind of dress you  in late afternoon at the bar at the Hotel Pierre in NYC to prolong a discussion that started over lunch.


Imagine trying to convince a Cambridge Professor to come out of the "dark ages" and support the fact that there is global warming. He is such a skeptic. But in this heat generating dress...he is hanging on my every word... and I am betting he will come around!

Kate  by Journey @ Marvelous Events  - Prism


In the early morning hours of August 24th,2016 tragedy struck Italy. Mother Nature decided to lay her strong quivering hands on the ground of the mountainous central regions, causing a 6.2 magnitude earthquake.
At least 290 people have died across the region, many more have been injured. Countless homes and businesses have been destroyed, the town of Amatrice is in ruins. This disaster has left many people with nothing but the clothes they were wearing when the earthquake began.
This is a tragedy that many of us can’t imagine. We’ve been lucky to live in places that mother nature has not yet forsaken. For many of us, this tragedy and similar events like it are just a passing story on the nightly news. For those in Italy the story has become reality. In times like these, it is important to remember that no matter where you live in the world you can help. Survivors need emergency supplies like food, water, and medicine. They also have long-term needs like shelter and help with rebuilding.
We are lucky here in Second Life to be able to spend our days surrounded by people from all over the world. We may be nothing more than pixels on a computer, but behind those pixels are real human beings that live, breathe and love.
Marvelous events, along their staff are setting aside everything in real life and in second life on September 17th, 2016 to support Italy. This will be a day to honor their Italian staff, friends and anyone in the SecondLife Community who have been affected by this disaster.

Marvelous Events will be donating 100% of their proceeds from the event sales, 100% of Donations to The Lounge and the Dj’s are graciously donating 100% their tips as well to the Croce Rossa Italiana (Italian red cross).
What’s in store for the day?

· For shoppers, all our shops will be open and ready for you to browse.
· Their will be random prize giveaways throughout the entire day from our Marvelous Designers.· Our sim sponsor, Posh Pixels has offered to create a OOAK gown to be auctioned off. 100% of the proceeds donated to the cause.

Exploring the Lair of Mr. X - *new* Eternal Gown by Silvan Moon

It was late and my lord had left the castle after working all day in his lair.  He is an alchemist and is searching for the right combination of elements to create gold that will make us rich beyond belief.  I  am curious about what goes on in this room of experimentation ...and decided to see for myself what has tantalized my lord for hours and hours.....

The wonders I have found were astounding... just like this new gown called Eternal by Silvan Moon.  This is a new collaboration of two creators that share the same passion for beautiful Medieval and Fantasy clothes - Solasnagealai of Blue Moon Enterprises and Bee Dumpling of The White Armory.   Each piece is original mesh so it is unique as well as artfully crafted with great attention to detail.


The details are extraordinary and include a headband styled hat that is etched in a fine brocade woven with golden thread that was popular during the Renaissance.



 The formal gown is made of a fine linen texture and is embellished with celtic accents. It  has drop sleeves that billow  with ornate cuffs and a silk sash and a gorgeous train making this a standout period gown that is distinctive and elaborate.


Eternal can be worn with classic, slink, belleza and maitreya mesh bodies. I am wearing Eternal Jewel with a fitted classic body. Eternal Jewel is the rare version of this gown and comes with a fabulous color changing hud that allows you to change the color of the gown, hat and sleeves.

Mr. X and Natane by Wicca's Wardrobe @ Fantasy Collective

Find me deep in the heart of the jungle... where magic and midnight ... you and I... intersect....find me in an ancient forest if you dare....I am feeling and look fierce and independent with a dash of wanton in this new exclusive item called Natane by Wicca's Wardrobe that is available at the Fantasy Collective  this month... it is ideal for role play... or just plain fun!


Natane  comes in solid black and a patchwork pattern and is made for mesh bodies - Freya, Isis, Maitreya, Slink and Venus.  Natane also includes a metal changing hud.  The criss cross top with lavish beading exudes confidence of someone that embraces the element of surprise with a nonchalant ease of a woman that knows the power of the illusion of smoke and the mystery of desire.

The skirt rides low on the hips and has a tribal elegance to it... replete with the cross stiching of the pants.  Natane beckons expeditions and adventure... follow if you dare!


Mr. X, the night is quiet... the wind barely stirs in the trees... I call your name softly and hope you can hear the echo... on the midnight breeze ---- consider this your invitation to..........

Flamenco - Mr. X and Naomi - *Exclusive* Jumo @ Swank


The new exclusive at Swank by Jumo called Naomi is fabulous... although it is available in many colors, I choose Mr. X's favorite color... red or "fiesta" !  Wearing Naomi, I told Mr. X to get ready to dance the  Flamenco whose name is thought to be a derivative of fire or flame and in this gorgeous outfit you are sure to set the room on fire!

Naomi consists of pants with cascading ruffles that ripple and sway as you walk or dance. Sometimes these pants look like a exotic gown.  I love the detailed waistline and opulent belt with it's gold buckle that gives these pants extra dimension and allure.  The cascading ruffle dresses of flamenco dancers is based on a style of dress worn for the Sevillanas at the annual Feria in Seville.


The top is accented by gold chains in an lovely floral pattern of black and red.  The set also comes with drop earrings and a beautifully crafted necklace in an antique gold finish that makes a statement and completes this exotically exciting look.


So Mr. X let's get ready to go to the fiesta that officially begins at midnight...you will find me waiting for you in the pavilion on the far bank of the Guadalquivir River... and please, don't forget my castanets!

Mr. X and Gaelle by Ghostyss @ Swank

I told Mr. X I would meet him on the upper west side of Manhattan... I am striking in black and white called Gaelle by Ghostyss.   The Maitre d' can't take his eyes off me... I am dressed to kill in a white l mini dress with bold black straps and buckles.

I love the sharp geometric appeal of this dress that skims over my curves with a trail of adjustable buckles running down the front of this mini dress. Mr. X tells me this sexy mini gives me oodles of sexy confidence, Mr. X likes that...I ask Mr. X if this dress hints at a dominating mistress or a naughty bedroom babe...


Gaelle is made for classic and slink, TMP and Maitreye bodies and is an exclusive at Swank. There is a 30% discount for all group members.  The main shop offers many additional discounts as well as group gifts.   In the meantime, I whisper in Mr. X's ear... let's ravish the night
