Black Market Deals

The FTLO Black Market has opened the gates and offers special Steals and Deals from many designers. One item per designer is 100 L$ and the rest is 40 L$ maximum. There are special releases just for this event also. Like this adorable high waist skirt from 22769 ~ casual couture. Even without usage of flexi prims the skirt floats naturally. A true gem in your wardrobe.
So get your cab to the Black Market here.

Roses

Elegance with a vintage twist: You can not only find costumes on the vintage fair but also very elegant dresses and hairstyles. This Red Roses Dress comes from 22769 ~ casual couture and even if it has a retro appeal it also works pretty well for contemporary events. Small sculpted roses float from the dekollete to the skirtpart. The skirt is completely sculpted but appears not to be stiff due to the legprims which give the dress an extremely natural look.

The adorable skin comes from Damned and is also a vintage fair release. And also the sophisticated hairdress can be found in the booth of MADesigns on the fair. Last but not least: The Black Pumps are also from 22769 ~ casual couture and match perfect to the dress.

Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away...

Please fasten your seatbelts as we are approaching the Vintage Fair in a few minutes.
The Vintage Fair is definitely the place to be at the moment (if you have a chance to teleport to the sims - of course). 200 brands provide you with everything you need for that certain retro feling. You find skins, shapes, hair, furniture and of course clothing galore at this place. 22769 ~ casual couture have as special release the "flight girls" in blue and yellow with bag, hat and shoes. Both uniforms are original Lufthansa-Stewardess-Uniforms from the 50ies and you can get them for 70 L$ each. So better have your boarding ticket ready to check in at the Vintage Fair.

November - the month for the lads

November truly is the month for mens fashion. Not only the Menstuff Hunt 3 kicked off yesterday with a bang - there is also a new kid in town called Mens.Select - something like the Dressing Room just for men. 14 designers (like Brocade Tiger, Shiki, 22769, Delirium Style, Lash Ware, Loordes of London and many more) offer for 14 days special deals on selected items. I am wearing the Fur Parka Hoodie Blue from 22769 ~ casual couture in this picture - normally 200 L$, but available at Mens.Select for just 99 bucks. A true steal!
So get your cab here to the smoking room of Mens.Select - who said shopping events are only for girls? ;-)
