Has she struck a pose on a deserted beach, or fallen as she traverses the dunes in her heels? Perhaps we’ll never know…

What I do know is that the highlight of this photo (besides the landscape) is the detail that both Annie Melson of *Just BECAUSE* and Darling Monday of fri.day bring to everything they create. First, the top; the ribbing pulls in all the right ways and you can easily discern every tooth of the zipper. Then for the shoes – these aren’t just ordinary platform pumps; check out the tiny bow! For better viewing, click over to my Flicker stream and click on the photo to zoom in. These details are what make these designers a cut above.

Check out the credits for where to find Kelly and Gracie. These ladies deserve to be yours!

Christmas Wonders

In case you have managed to get into Tannenbaum Holiday Market for some beautiful Christmas things, congratulations. There is so much at this event to love! The oversized baubles and gift boxes (which I also oversized!) from {what next} are great additions to your holiday decorations. Peruse the credits for more from this fabulous event.

Oh, but don’t forget that The Arcade opens again on December 1st! As always, it is eagerly awaited by a large portion of the grid and I’m providing you with a sneak preview of the “She’s a maniac!” set from Salt & Pepper. Inspired by the movie “Flashdance,” you can find all of the pieces to put together a dancer’s outfit or just a cozy little number for cuddling in the cold. The harness I am wearing is one of the Rare prizes, and the bodysuit, leg warmers and hood are just a few of the commons you can win. Don’t forget there is an alternate cam shopping sim adjacent to The Arcade; I have linked to both sims in the credits.

It is the season of giving, but don’t forget to get a little for yourself, too. The month of December is guaranteed to be filled with Christmas wonders.

Them Apples

For those of you on the grid who love the Blueberry Butt (which is probably 98% of females and 107% of males), meet the Apple May Bottom. I admit when I opened the pack of Taylor Pants from Apple May Designs I thought, “Oh, a pair of pants. Big deal.” And then I tried them on. The first thing I noticed was the lace waistband and I squeeeeeed just a little. Then I cammed around and saw the back. And I fell in love. Just look at that bum! This is a pair of pants that should NEVER be worn with a long shirt or jacket! Doing that would be akin to putting a drop cloth over the Mona Lisa.

And these pants are dressy. They are textured in a soft, clingy fabric and have a flared bottom, which covers your shoes (sorry, that didn’t make it past the editing). Paired with this adorably soft and feminine top from TETRA, the open back leads the eye to the highlight of the masterpiece: The Apple May Bottom.

You, too, can have this perfect backside by visiting the Apple May Designs booth at Mesh Body Addicts through December 10. Go ahead; you know you want it!

Ladies and gentlemen of Second Life…how about them apples?
