It's like buttah

Okay, so after a few days of tying my hands, literally, from shopping... I decided to use this nifty little gift card I won at a Dahlinks Sponsored event to purchase the Dahlinks Celestial Necklace, and of course what's a necklace without a really hot dress to show it off in! Which brings us to the other store of addiction, Phoenix Rising. Oh muh gawd I love these two designers. I think if they ever collaborated I'd be in for a serious dent in my virtual wallet.

So, without further delay and endless ranting about... ooo butter cookies.. *ahem*... about uhh what was I saying... Oh right! Without further delay... wow did you see that?! No really, it just darted across my screen... oh.. never mind... stupid fly... dang I did it again... okay, for real this time, without further delay I give you one of Dahlinks latest, The Celestial Necklace, could it possibly have a more magnifique name?! I mean, look at that thing! There's a ton of gems! And it's scripted so you can change the color of the gems to suit your needs!! It's glitter without the bling in typical Dahlinks séduction!

With the bling I needed fabric of course, I mean, not that my partner would object to me running around in nothin' but the pixels I've purchased - So I decided to go back to my latest obsession, Phoenix Rising and I TP'd out with a gown called Edo's Onjah in Pink wild. It's AWESOME, comes in an A-Line and full skirt option, There's a solid color panel bodice, or the zebra stripe in multiple colors. The dress is FANTASTIC! I can't rave enough about the quality you find at Phoenix Rising. Check it out for yourself!!!

Intentions

Sometimes people intend to do something... and then something else happens... and their intentions miss the mark...

That is NOT the case with this exquisite gown. I had gone to Phoenix Rising a few times before this trip. I have never encountered such well done clothing at such little cost. I have to give Ashoka Eales some serious credit here. Her textures are fantastic and her prim work is flawless! I challenge you mortals to view her store and NOT walk out of there with at least ONE outfit. No seriously. If you go there, and genuinely do not like something, I will be shocked. She has casuals as well as formals and accessories....

Anyway back to the dress in question.... Intentions is one of Phoenix Rising's older works, but it's absolutely perfect. This dress has personality. I saw it and HAD to have it. In fact I saw it the last time I had been there and SWORE I was GOING back to get it! Thus, I have obtained my intentions.... have you?

* J's Ankle Boots Round in Black

This is a great sexy outfit for when you want to go out with that special someone and dance the night away!

The dress is affordable and well made. The prim skirt will need some adjusting according to your shape and how it sits on your body, but all an all a GREAT purchase for someone looking to save some linden on a nice dress without spending a whole lot.

Next we have SHOES! Yes my very own personal weakness aside from jewels and hair...LOL... yes who would have thought that a girl could have a serious hair addiction, yeah well I'm here! Hai!

Introducing: J's Ankle Boots Round (in black)
*J's SLurl*

Ok so I have to be serious with ya'll here. You WILL spend $400L on this kick ass pair of boots. *Stare into my eyes while I convince you of this yes?*

Trust me, this will be the BEST Linden you invest if you are looking for a versatile pair of ankle boots. They come with 2 attachments. One for when you wear with jeans and on where you do not. I really wish that most boots came with this option, but I am eternally appreciative that J's has included the choice for me in this nicely constructed pair of boots.

The details are AMAZING, and the colour selection is vast. You will NOT be disappointed in purchasing this item for your inventory, and your feets.... they be happy too *grins*

So there you have it folks. Affordable shopping that won't end up making you look like a newbie, and for you newbie, affordable shopping that will help you look your best in this crazy grid we call SL.
