Not being a huge V-day fan, there is one thing that I really like about this time of year and that is the massive amount of delicious lingerie sets being released, both in SL and RL.  I have been spoiled with  lot of them lately, so I figured I might as well share some of my favourites with you.

First there is Cream, today’s release from Lovelace, the annual collab between Nephilaine Protagonist and Launa Fauna. I love how this year’s releases are all dessert/patisserie inspired. And isn’t this one just yummy? There is not enough strapless lingerie in SL!!

Other than the undies, I’m wearing precious little… but the hair it Truth’s Peta, the skin is L.Fauna’s Lapine, the bracelet is alaMood’s Keeper of Hearts and the pose and heart are from Glitterati.

The next set in this lingerie loaded post is from 5th & Oxford. The Tease is an upcoming release, and as usual, it comes with tons of options and in several rich colours. There will be knickers, garter belts, bras , corsets and under bust corsets on all useful layers as well as natural and matching stockings to every colour. I love how, with her known eye for detail, Roslin made the stockings look slightly pulled up by the garter. Also they will release their famous gloves in matching colours!

With this set I’m also wearing 5th & Oxford’s Audrey English Rose (medium) and Tiny Bird’s Love Love Love.

I own almost every set which  Camilla Yosuke from Insolence has ever released. It’s just love.  With her gorgeous lace textures and excellent drawn items, she is probably the most loved lingerie designer on the grid. This latest release, Cecile, comes in 6 lovely colours and also comes with a bra option. I have picked the pink corset/chemise option, since it shows a little more of the mad skills of Camilla.

I’m not a stockings fetishist, but I love it when they are well done in SL. Many you see are pretty bland and with mediocre textures, but like 5th & Oxford, Insolence’s stockings are SO well made, with the perfect capture of that sheer shine which any nylons these days have. With every set of Cecile, you get several different shades of stay ups as well.  With Cecile I’m wearing Lelutka’s Ife (make up 3 in sunkiss) and  Maitreya’s Bo hair in Pecan as well as alaMood’s Keeper of Hearts bracelet.

Last but not least in this run is Blacklace’s Mile High set… yes… there is also a stewardess set for this release… but I’m sticking to the undies today… maybe some day i’ll show you how hot the skimpy dress is with the hat and all.  The Mile High lingerie is very outspoken, the woman wearing this is a predator… feline, her poor prey will be caught before he even realises he was being hunted…Blacklace is strong at making this statement, their lingerie is very empowering. There are also lace gloves to go with this set, but personally I’m not a fan of lace gloves, so I left those out.

With the Mile High lingerie I’m wearing Dutch Touch’s Amber skin and the Aphro hair from Another Level.

It’s good days coming home after work and finding newness from Truth!! I didn’t have the energy left to post this to the blog last night, but well… it’s a new day, and I have slept like a log 🙂

From left to right, Berry… gorgeous, but with a really pungeant Mango smell :-P, Peta, my fave of the week… cute, shaggy and pixie-ish and Kirsty, sweet and girly pig tails.

OK… i need caffeine… or something else which seriously wake me up. Catch you guys later ❤

I’ve picked quite a sunny look for today, with the bright orange Hallie sweater from Skin Flicks, with a wonderfully sculpted off shoulders attachment (3, to be exact, for better fitting) and, also from Skin Flicks, the beige Hallie pants (high waist, trousers & shorts version included).

The orange Dalia pumps from Armidi are still among my favourites for looks like this. The gorgeous collar is Akhal from alaMood, which has been lurking in my inventory ever since the jewelry fair.

Lately, I’ve seen quite a lot of this hair around. It’s Baby, from Analog Dog, and while the alpha channels drive me totally crazy, the curls look so pretty! Also the textures look way better these days than last time I tried Analog Dog hair!! Jolie (coffee, Autumn) from Dutch Touch is the skin I’m wearing with this look. I just think orange looks best on a darker skin.

I’m wearing ICING’s Camilla today. I went to Miko’s shop to check if I have missed any newness lately… but unfortunately, that was not the case. I miss new ICING stuff!!! So I figured I’d pick one of my older dresses and dress it up a bit.

Not too much, because Camilla is pretty all by itself, but considering the cold over here, a cardigan didn’t seem exaggerated. Since it’s mod, Coco’s lace cardigan is ideal to be tinted to fit multiple outfits. I picked a grayish brown which matches the sash of the dress. With the C.Edo flats in gun metal from Truth, you get a lovely outfit.

OK, to be honest, from all the ICING dresses in my inventory, I picked the Camilla dress because I wanted to create a sweet look to match alaMood’s Endless love set (diamond), which is so pretty and delicate.

I’m wearing Truth’s Caroline hair in latte, and PXL Creations’ July natural.

SLurls are stored here.

I went over to Nyte ‘n Day earlier and picked up this lovely pink Snap dress. Nyte just never disappoints on the cute casuals. Since I started roam SL, I’ve been a regular customer. I just love that at Nyte ‘n Day you can still buy a totally cute dress like this for under 200 L$.

I’m wearing it with Atomic’s ribbon legging which were a VIP group New Years gift. The Geisha belt is from Fishy Strawberry. The pink Saturday flats are from Shiny things. I really wish Fally would come back and create again. I’m such a sucker for her shoes.

I’m still wearing Roos today, Dutch Touch’s latest skin in cream (city make up) and the Opium hair is from The Abyss and was a part from the Opium avatar. I don’t know whether it’s available separately.

A couple of days ago I found these skins in my inventory from a new shop, Mah Poor Quality by Aliana Tomsen and Elies Furse. My first impression: CUTE! Especially Stevie (I don’t care much for the pout and the dark shading on the mouth on Neomi and you see that on a lot of skins lately… what’s wrong… everybody been drinking cheap red wine?)

On second thought though, these skins still have a lot of issues. They are full of seams and differences between the textures of the different parts of the body templates and other bits need serious blending, but as long as you keep your clothes on, I think Stevie looks really, really nice.

I think Mah Poor Quality is not poor quality at all, just a beginning brand and starting skinners, and I’m curious to know how their products are going to develop over time!

Oh well.. so I forgot to post yesterday’s look yesterday and posted it over breakfast today, and here is today’s lotd, and as close a V-day look as you will get from me this year.

I’m wearing Atomic’s Cropped Love Tee in Pepto, and Dutch Touch’s MoTo jeans in grey. So funny that those stripes are somewhat in the shirt as well! J’s western boots are a logical choice with this outfit, and I love these pink ones, because it’s not too sweet a pink.

The pink straw hat is from Surf Couture, as is the weat i’m chewing on (comes with the hat). I’m wearing Flowey’s “be still my heart” tattoo, which I just realise is not visible under the braid of my Candice hair (from Truth) but I totally ❤ Flutter’s tats, so yeah… she makes txt tattoos now too, just so you know!

As said, the hair is Candice in coffee, and I modded it to fit with the hat. I see a lot of people who make the hat bigger, but seriously.. that’s not the way to do it, it makes your head look ridiculously big. Just make a colpy of the hair and shrink it, or edit linked prims and shrink the prims sticking out from the hat. I’m wearing Roos skin today, from Dutch Touch, in cream (City make up)

Ok, that’s it for the looks today…. slurls are here, as usual.

I’m wearing Michami’s new dress Rhia, in brown. it comes with a system skirt as well as with a mini sculpt skirt, but I’m wearing the system version here, because it’s just really good! Tesla’s Angelina boots to go with it, and basically, you’re done and ready to rock the world.

I have added the necklace and bracelet from Miel’s Elo set because the colours match so nicely with the dress. FNKY!’s Angel skin (medium, nude) is today’s skin of choice. It’s soft and feminine and I love the way it looks on my shape. Danielle in swedish from this week’s release at Truth’s is the finishing touch.

It’s that time of the week again… more hair…. and yes, you know you need more.. even when your inventory is crashing with it as is….

This weeks pretties are, from left to right: Lulu, Sage, Danielle, and my fave of the week, how can it not be since it has my RL name, Caroline.

They’ll be out in a bit, so clear cache, defragment your computer and prepare to brave the lag…. or visit Truth’s storefront at xstreetsl.com.

OK… so I agree… this is not the usual outfit for some serious gardening… but pixels don’t make you dirty! I’ve been working on another corner of Leek Island today, dressed like this.

I’m wearing Redgrave’s transparent knit sweater which I stole from a friend of mine :-P. It’s from Redgrave’s male collection, but as usual, it looks better on me than on my buddy. The bra which keeps it half decent is from Pig, from the softies collection and shimmering under that you can still see some of HUZ tats’Timeless tattoo. The Rebel Rebel asphalt jeans skirt is from 5th & Oxford. With this outfit, I’m wearing Tesla’s black Angelina boots, but they got cropped out… totally awesome boots though.

I’m wearing a triple lip ring from Puncture and an unreleased stack of rings from alaMood (SLDD of coming Saturday!). Other than that I’m wearing Ife light (make up 2) from Lelutka and Nick hair in meteorite from St.Uw (Uncleweb).

Frilly Cherry Blossom, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Finally Dakota and Twiggy from Whippet & Buck decided to make some frilly little bras to go with their frilly little knickers which have been items in 50 L$ Fridays in the past. They are little, frilly and oh yes, adorable too… and they come in 8 delicious colours. They are available as separates and in convenient fat packs.

For those among us who currently live in their undies *coughs* Jori *coughs* these are an absolute must have. One thing though… I couldn’t help but giggle as I imagined all the voluptuous chested ladies wearing these frilly bras… and how their girls would suffer if they were wearing these in RL with ditto cupsizes… sorry… my bad :-D.

Other need to knows: I’m wearing L.Fauna’s Lapine (tan 1) fresh and Truth’s Bailey hair in coffee.

A casual look for a snowy monday… I picked up the saddle brown Vanity jacket, which disappoints me a bit texturewise, but I like the style of it. Yes, there, I’ve said it… The texture is bland, not really well shaded, and sub par to some of the other items from Lelutka,  but I’m a sucker for this kind of jackets. I’m wearing it with Pig’s dandelion softie (Stumblebum exclusive) and Dutch Touch’s basic jeans def 3.

J’s western boots come in an almost perfect matching brown, so they were the obvious companions for this look, and although one might expect gold accesoires for the colour of the buttons, I picked my alaMood Grazia set (not available, custom work) to wear today, because… well.. I felt like wearing it.

Weeks ago Heather Beebe of Rockberry dropped me some samples of her latest skin, Jules, and the kinda went lost in my inventory, but during yesterday’s organising session, I found them back. Skins make me happy :-), though the nose is a wee bit hard for my personal taste on this one. I’m wearing the H natural with dark brows here. Lelutka’s Jennifer in walnut whip is the choice of hair for today’s outfit.

Coco has new stuff out, again, and it’s pretty… again… so I made a look with their stuff… again… I know… but I just LIKE Coco Designs. And I’ve decided not to spend my Linden$ anymore on stuff I don’t like, just for the sake of this blog. So yeah, I’m in love with the Military Cardigan which was released earlier this week, and I’m wearing it with the high waist tuxedo pants, also from Coco. The lovely red top is “My red cropped tank” from Milk Motion.

I’m also wearing Dark Mouse’s Here Comes the Sun necklace, because i want spring!! I haven’t seen this much snow since the last time i went skiing… which is like 10 years ago. And that was in the Alps…this time it’s right here in the low lands. Oh well.. I’m rambling.. and yes… there was more snow in the Alps, but usually, if it snows here at all, it won’t stay for more than a day. Spring, therefore, on my wishlist! The prim nails I’m wearing are from SLink. I did miss a camouflage glove for the skin nails, but I took the one I have from my Fleur nails (Which I don’t think are currently available at 5th & Oxford… but you might want to bug Roslin for them, because they rock!)

Skin and hair are both Haiti Relief fundraiser items and may not be available anymore either. The skin is a special Ife make up from Lelutka and the hair, Sascha, is from Maitreya.
