Ghee Christmas Market -- Don't Miss the Fun - Now thru Dec. 31, 2018!

It's the most magical time of the year and Ghee is with a Christmas Market chuck full of special exclusive holiday offers, gifts and more in a winter wonderland of shopping and fun for the whole family.  Ghee has been transformed into a snowy oasis, with ice skating, sledding, snow angels and snowball fights. Gathered around the Christmas Tree you will find stalls with special deals on new, exclusive items for women -- like this cute dress I am wearing.  There are also items for kids and men ..all are priced at just 50L.


Ghee also has some special treats - the Ghee Christmas Lucky Dip has 20 random prizes to win, valued from 99L to 1,000L!  And for the little ones - Santa's Grotto has a lucky dip sack of gifts just for kids!  There are gifts to find in some of the stalls and stores in the retail park too - so be sure to take a good look around!  Lucky Dips are like free gachas - prizes are given randomly with some more common than others! But there's a catch - you can only play once every 2 hours - so stick around to keep playing, or come back to try your luck again!


I just love this cute exclusive fur trimmed Christmas Mini Dress that is sassy and sweet at the same time @ Ghee.  You can choose a variety of patterns from snowflakes and angles to reindeers and Santa Claus of course!  In addition to exclusives by Ghee you will also find stalls and special items by  Baby Ghee, Alma Make up, Chop Zuey, Celestinas Weddings, and Celestina's Kids.

New @ Ghee - Winter Essentials @ Designers Showcase


Today is officially the first day of winter and I can't think of a better way to kick it off than with this the new Winter Essentials Collection by Ghee that is available at the Designers SHowcase through December 31.  I just love love love the thermals and advise you never to go out in the cold without them!


 The new thermal longjohns come with a 12 color changing hud that can be applied to all mesh bodies by the appropriate omega applier.  I like that fact that there are little icons of which part of the clothing you want to change making this hud really easy to use.  Mr. X tells me these longjohns are snuggable and I agree!!!  I have paired them with the Slouch Boots -- also by Ghee that are made for mairtreya, slink and belleza high feet... just look at the detail in the boots!!! Amazing.


Ghee is well known for its stylish, elegant and wearable fashion, in unique textures and colors and the Faux Fur Jacket that pairs beautifully with the Longjohn Thermals will not disappoint.  I love the square shoulders of this jacket and the leather sash that adds a dash of contrasting color.  The colors of the fur offered are really unique and imaginative... making this jacket "essential"!



The Essential Faux Jacket comes with 8 different colors of fur ranging from white to browns and blackish grays... all textures are truly unusual and beautiful.  This jacket is perfect with the Longjohns and either thigh high or slouch boots, both available at the Main Store.  The Faux Jacket is made for Lara, isis, slink and belleza mesh bodies.  Don't forget to check out the main sim @ Ghee they are also hosting a special Christmas Fair through December 31... More about that later!

Mr. X and the Candy Cane Girl! irrISIStible and Glitter @ Swank

I told Mr. X that when I think of Candy Canes I immediately think of Christmas!  There are so many explanations of how the candy cane came about-- they are as much an ornament as they are a confection.  People munch on them and decorate with them...and wonder how they originated. Some say they are fraught with Christian religious symbolism, a sweet offered to kids to be good in church, or a confection dreamed up by a candy maker in Indiana to express his Christian faith... who knows -- its charming folklore and tradition.


I love the peppermint flavor of candy canes and was delighted to find this fabulous outfit by irresistible at this month's Swank that is festively embellished with candy canes... makes me feel as sweet as ... dare I say it... sugar!  Candy Canes for Christmas also comes with gorgeous silk opera gloves that have six different hand movements that add pizzaz to this look!


 Candy Cane for Christmas comes with a whimsical skirt replete with layers of candy canes as well as a sexy corset top.  The outfit is made for mesh bodies including belleza, Maitreya, slink, venus, isis, and others.  It comes with high boots and lots of candy cane colored ribbons.


I love the headpiece of Candy Cane for Christmas with its cute holly wreath that is crowned by a candy cane hat!  I have paired this Candy Cane outfit with Holly Christmas Jewelry by Glitter.

Mr. X In a Christmas Mood - DE Boutique and YGTL

Winter is here and so is the flu season and poor me has the flu!!!   I am feeling a bit better though and decided to celebrate my slow recovery with a new blog for Swank featuring DE Boutique, there are three exclusives to be found here... in addition, I have also included the new eyes by YGTL!



I am in love with the Blazer Dress... it is so tailored and so sophisticated... and, Mr. X told me sexy too!  I love the asymmetrical hemline and the way it buttons on a slant.  This dress comes in solids, tweeds, and plaids so there are plenty of textures to choose from to fit your mood.  I matched the Blazer Dress with the Debra Boots, another exclusive @ Swank. The Blazer Dress is made for Isis, Freya, Lara, fitted and slink mesh bodies.


You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch... You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch...You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel!  I love this fun sweater dress another exclusive @ Swank by DE Boutique.  I have paired Debra Boots with this by DE Boutique also available at Swank.  The boots are made for Lara, Slink and Belleza mesh feet.


The sweater dress is called Christmas Mood and comes with a massive color and pattern changing hud. You can wear it as a solid or with holiday sayings on it.  The patterns are all fun and unique including the cat with reindeer antlers!!  I really liked the red and white sweater dress with the Nordic pattern on it!   This is made for freya, slink, laura and venus bodies.


Finally, I have to show off these fabulous mesh eyes by YGTL called Glitter Eyes... there are six eye colors to choose from that are all brilliantly sparkling and perfect to wear for the holiday season. Glittering Eyes are available @ Swank!

Mr. X and Megan --Giulia Designs and Heartsdale Designs @ Swank & Emotions

Oh, Megan is a sexy little minx... This is what Mr. X thinks anyway, and I do as well.  This mini dress by Guilinia Designs called Megan is an exclusive at the December holiday Swank event.  It is perfect for a city night out on the town or at home relaxing with someone you are sweet on by the roaring fire watching the snow fall.


I think Megan is the perfect combination of feminity and allure with its shimmering silk and sexy lace accents in all the right places!   I also love the fact that  Megan comes with gorgeous thigh hi black boots that compliment this outfit perfectly.   Megan comes with a six color changing hud.


The boots and mini dress with its cute V neckline and leather and lace up each side of the front of this dress is made for maitreya, slink and belleza mesh bodies.


I have combined Megan with gorgeous new boho type long hair by Emo-tions called Kylie I love the little side braid and the way this hair is angled along my face.  I am also wearing a holiday charm necklace and earrings by Heartsdale Designs called BoHo.  This exclusive set is also at this month's Swank.

Mr. X and I Following the Fairy Dust - New Wicca's Wardrobe

I love this casually elegant and somewhat medieval feel to the new outfit by Wicca's Wardrobe called Allison that is an exclusive at the Sense event and will later be in her main shop.  This outfit is made for Maitreya and slink mesh bodies and comes with a  leather vest, silk scarf,  leather pants, a comfy sweater and cute ruffles for the cropped pants.

I love the fact that this also comes with a huge color changing hud that allows you to mix and match the colors of the sweater, vest, scarf, pants and even the ruffles of the pants.  The colors include black, white, red, blue, green, purple, gold and teal blue.  As always I had a blast changing the colors of all the items.  You can also change the metal of the buttons and the leather strap in the back of the vest.  Need I say that the options are endless?


Don't miss the Allison boots that are sold separately... they are absolutely gorgeous with tons of leather lacing in the front and in the back... they are way cool and you will be able to wear them with a ton of outfits in SL.  They also come with a color changing hud that allows you to change the color of the shoe, heel/sole, shaft of the boot and the laces!  How much fun is that!  I love them!  They are made for maitreya and slink high feet...and, if you ask me, a must have.


I have gotten into some trouble here in this sweet outfit following the fairy dust to a little gypsy camp deep in the forest... no one was there but me and the fairy... the fire was warm and glowing and the colors of the gypsy wagon were bright and colorful against the nite time sky... even the candles were lit.  As I sat amid the fairy dust... my mind drifted back to Mr. X and I wondered what on earth he was up to...

Mr. X and the Snow Queen - Sascha's Designs, Heartsdale @ Swank & Jumo

You tell yourself he only left you for her--because of the wicked shard of glass in his eye,
but the truth is, every man wants an ice princess...He'd rather marvel at her tedious snowflakes,
caress her frosted hair, bask in her cold gaze --- she is a goddess frozen in time... forever.

He loves that veneer of symmetry....how can you rescue a man whose heart, transfixed by a skeletal crystal that craves the bruising of frost?  He runs to her thru mist covered mountains -- across ice fields and snow-covered valley's -- he burns for her warmth... deep and warm... alluring as the warmth of the north star that always guides him home to her... eternal warmth...

One way is to wear this great new gown by Sascha's Designs called Snow Queen.  It is an exclusive @ December Swank and  is made for regular mesh bodies and maitreya, slink and belleza mesh bodies and is a mix of mesh and  flexi prims.
I love the headpiece that comes with the Snow Queen by Sascha's Designs it is like a  winter water snowflake.  I have combined this with another exclusive from Swank, the BoHo Charm Necklace and drop earrings by Heartsdale.  The hair is new by Jumo... a perfect updo called Sugar Hair that is perfect for this look... elegant and evocative... just like a Snow Queen should be.

Mr. X and Petite Mort and Heart Homes @ Swank!

I love this time of year... when snow covers the landscape, the smell of gingerbread wafts through the air and candles glow from every window and people relax by the fire... Mr. X and I do anyway.  There is nothing more than I love than decorating a tree and Heart Homes has made a gorgeous tree for the holidays that is perfect for singles and couples and even includes bento poses.  WOW!   Touch the lights and the tree comes alive...


Plus, there are so many moments to experience with this tree from gift wrapping and rattling to see what is in the package to decorating the tree or just sitting and relaxing... it is a delight.  I especially like the rustic country look of it with its perfectly rendered Santa's that climb the tree and seem to greet you at every angle... I can almost hear them go ho- ho- ho !


As with all of the items from Heart Homes... I love the interactions.PG and Adult (I never ever kiss and tell!!!) ..and all the options... this is low prim and absolutely amazing at only 22 prims... I just loved wearing this clothing exclusive from  Swank by Petite Mort... it is cute and sassy ....Mr. X loves that!


I loved this sweet flirty mini skirt and sweater top by Petite Mort that is an exclusive at the December Swank.  Although available in four festive colors, I really loved the cranberry color as it reminds me of the rich reds of the holiday season and gets me thinking about the red berries of mistletoe!  This sweater and skirt are made for slink and maitreya mesh bodies.

Mr. X and the Beautiful Gypsy - Exclusive @ Fashion for Life

Are you a gypsy soul that longs to sleep under the moonlight while the kettles whistle and boil...in colorful rooms with rainbow hues...fevered with the sunset... thirsty with wanderlust...always ready to go forth and find a new tomorrow?   When men look at her, they see wildfire in her eyes and a hunger for the open road....

I just love this new exclusive outfit at Fashion for Life by Feyline called Gypsty Natalia.  It is one of the finest gypsy outfits I have ever seen... I love the beautifully brocaded midriff bodice, artful neck shawl, neck ribbon and puff sleeves. It comes with a matching bracelet and boots as well. 


The skirt is colorful and swirls and sways as you move.  I love the paisley palette and the asymmetrical flowing layers of the texture.  This outfit is made for classic and mesh bodies using a handy omega system.  It is nice to see that this designer has such a fantastic outfit that fits the classic avatars as well as those of us with mesh bodies.



 I adore the details in this outfit... just look at this gorgeous neck shawl and you will see what I mean.  I have paired this outfit with new hair in a fabulous updo with wisps of hair falling around my cheeks by Emo-tions called Sia.Of mountains and forests... valleys and trees... mysterious adventures... locks and doors that open slowly... I dream of ships, I dream of seas... and the moment that the sails fill with the wind taking me to the east.
