SL to RL to SL to RL to SL to RL OMG!!!

So, as this is a fashion blog, and we have A LOT of fetish types in Second Life, I thought I’d feature a website I stumbled across in my searches of random shit. collars1

Dogs wear collars. They wear them so that us average humans can identify their name, owners phone number, or address, and current vaccines. Similarly, well, aside from vaccines, submissive in a D/s community will wear collars to identify as well…

As most of you know, in the D/s world, a collar is everything. Or at least for some it is. The collar can represent so much to so many. Safety, Comfort, Belonging, Sex… mostly I’ve realized that in SL, it is associated with those who are not necessarily living a D/s lifestyle, but wish to convey the portrayal of “Kink” with their partners.

No matter the reason for wearing the collar, whether you’re the “Hot Topic” wearing type, or are engaged in RL D/s relationships… a collar is simply, a collar. Like a ring, it’s the meaning behind the item that leads us down our paths…

So yeah, now, back to my random… or was that my random… this website I stumbled across is a RL customize your own collar site. It has multiple options from straps to buckles to studs or gems, color and size… it’s simply an amazing site. Not only can you buy collars but they do custom belts and cuffs as well.

So for all of you out there, looking to further your adventure, or maybe start one… Check CFLogoout http://collarfactory.com/ :) 

Now, if only someone in SL could do a create your own collar thing. That’d be cool :)

3 Outfits, 1 Day = EPIC WIN!

I know I know I know, I have been a slacker, a HUGE slacker, but with RL and my SL commitments, and having way too much damn fun, can ya blame me? *eyes her sisters to not say a word!*

Today I bring you 3 outfits of EPIC WIN! 

#1 – WICKED GEAR http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Wicked%20Gear/131/183/22

Pictured here is a very elegant off the shoulder top called Fleur De Lis.   It is a wonderfully textured dark blue low cut, yet still classy top.  It also comes with optional cuffs (not pictured).  I have paired it with the NEW RELEASE Jeans also from WG  $195L Black Low Dress Jean.  The prim attachments are well built and detailed to make it look almost seamless as much as you can in SL *giggles*.  This outfit is great if you are looking for something well made, and something along the more casual line of dress on the grid.  WG has a lot of great product ranging from classy to down right scandalous, and as always, with a target for the discerning shopper who doesn't want to spend a ton of L’s to look good.Great Job guys, and thank you to Sophia for the heads up on some GREAT items ;)

#2 – DELIRIUM  http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Nightscape/130/87/22

Don’t get it twisted when you search for “Delirium” in your search bar.  This is the ORIGINAL place for the best URBAN Gear on the grid as far as I am concerned!  Pictured to the left is their outfit called “Epica”, it has quite a few options as Christel Morane usually gives to all her items.  This item was courtesy of a Group Challenge.  Splixxen Miles woke us all up with a question about one of their many ensembles and yours truly was the first one to answer correctly (who is not a member of DS Staff).  I was able to choose one outfit for my answer, and I chose “Epica” – shes cute, flirty, and damn makes your curves go POW.  Delirium is currently having a group discount sale on their SIM, so get your butts down there, join the group and have a blast, trust me, you will love it.

#3 PACADI JASHA - http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/GOL%205/109/83/22

Shop*Gasm Girls are huge fans of Pacadi Jasha’s  Lotta Shelman, so I was all over it when I received this pretty item to blog.  Just in time for summer, they have released a small summer themed line that you can pick up by visiting the GOLden Shopping district.  No they haven’t reopened their SIM sadly, but perhaps one day :)  This fun and romantic pink piece is called Alis, it also comes in a very dark green and a light blue (if I remember correctly).  The ripples of the fabric on the texturing just blew me away, its so well constructed, it made me squee!  I have been wearing this around the grid all morning!  No lie, I have pictures to prove it, I just hope my butt doesn't get banned.  Anyways, back to the lingerie.  *drools*  I LOVE the heart that PJ puts into their outfits and this is no different.  Quality items for a reasonable price, who couldn’t say know to breaking the “Don’t buy the fat pack, just cause” Rule.

So there ya have it folks.  Tons of options to be had this Monday morning, and THANK YOU to all those who gave me inspiration to blog once again.  More often than not I head to the feeds for some sort of kick start, but they have been so lacking the last few months, nothing has made my jaw drop quite like these.  So wherever you are, whatever you are doing, have a fabulous Monday!  ♥ Suite.

The Beautiful People

RoselynnDarkstoneDark As I write this, I’m actually DJing at a strip club in the skin I’m about to tell ya about. Looking around at the various skins adorning the room. It’s inspired me to talk about one of the reasons I chose the skin I am in.  Now, I know a lot of you are going to be like “This bish done lost her mind”. Well HA! To you. I never had it to begin with. *grins*

Skin places are so focused on making these model perfect skins and avi’s that it’s almost impossible to tell one avatar from the other with exception to the name over their heads. My theory on this is as follows, if I confuse this I’m sorry, my mind is spinning in like 12 directions right now… basically what I’m thinking is, with all these perfect little avi’s running around the grid, it’s hard for folks to really see a sense of unique interpretation. Our flaws are what make us who we are. Tattoos help to define the skin as your own. And that’s a start, but I love this skin, why? It’s got scars, bruises and what not. It is unique and best of all, it isn’t perfect. Just like me. I am not perfect. In any sense of the word. And so, I love Frick’s Fisticuffs skin. See it for yourself. It’s fantastic. I’m going to drop some pictures for you to see. I would LOVE to see more skin designers add little imperfections to the skins to make them a bit more personable.

This blog is a project that was birthed out of three sisters and friends wanting to do something together that we could all enjoy and share.

The contributors of Shop*gasm are consumers. We like to shop. Correction...we LOVE to shop. For the most part, we blog our purchases. Maybe not every single one, but definitely something we find noteworthy.

What we will guarantee is an open and honest blog for you to read, with just enough moxie and personality to make you either hate it or love it. LOL

Hopefully you'll find the blog just as fun and awesome as we have in creating it :)
