and there’s a sale…

Posted By cherry on June 29, 2009

I forgot to mention the sale yesterday!  You may have seen the store in the little mall to the left of DollyRock main store called DollyRock Deals.  It’s where I put the about-to-be-retired outfits on sale for only 50L.    As there have been many new releases over the past few months I felt the main store was getting a little crowded so yesterday I retired the old sale stock and pulled 40 or so fresh outfits, ranging from formal gowns to unzipped denim shorts to formal gowns, into the sale store.  Many of these have never been on sale before so now’s your chance to stock up  - they’re transferable so perfect for gifts or alts.  They will be retired forever soon.  Did I mention that they’re all only 50L each…some have shoes included…okay I’ll shut up now :-)

Oh yes, and because it’s soooo annoying to have bought something full price only to see it on sale the next day, here’s the deal.  If you bought an outfit that’s now in the DollyRock Deal store at full price anytime in the last seven days, send me a notecard with the transaction details and I’ll refund the difference.  A retrospective sale!!

This outfit is named for the lovely Alyssa Bijoux.   I bought my first piece of jewellery from Alyssa way back when I was new to SL like many of us, I’m sure.  She’s just been around forever and you can’t miss her distinctive blue stores all over the grid.  Great common sense and a killer sense of humour.

Distressed bikini top and teeny weeny shorts in a mix of stars and stripes perfect for Independence Day.  A cute stetson completes this look that’s bound to cause a few fireworks!  I’ve thrown in a slightly distressed 60s style version too.  Flower power!

Freebie tee

No matter what you thought of the troubled last years of his life nobody can deny that Michael Jackson brought us some great tunes.  There’s a tshirt free in store today as a small nod to MJ.  As Abba said…..thank you for the music.

The Bad Blogger Challenge

I decided to bite the bullet this year and take part in The Bad Blogger Challenge.  I won’t burden you with it on this blog, but if you’re interested it’s over at my rant more chatty blog  Cherry Pips.

Charna

Black and grey halter neck tee, hand textured with skull and roses motif.  Belted glitch pants underneath a matching prim skirt.  Semi transparent knee highs have rose and leaf motif.  Includes spiked arm band in black and burgundy.  Comes complete with tassled shoes and separate knitted prim ankle socks in red and grey argyle.  The base texture in this outfit is one I used on the bodice of the more formal Druella outtift released a couple of weeks ago so some mixy matchy goodness there :-)

Police!

Posted By cherry on June 14, 2009

Based (very) loosely on a British police uniform (they have the b&w checks but no latex, sadly) this outfit includes a black latex top with check corset ties and neck band, a check prim tie, peaked cap, sunglasses, glitch pants, fishnet stockings and a prim skirt with waistband, handcuffs and key. I’ve included two skirts, with and without the prim accessories just in case you don’t want to be quite so arresting :-)

here’s an encore – this time in a gorgeous shade of teal.
Sexy yet chic sums up this Asian inspired dress, Lotus.  Chinese dragons adorn the gorgeous silk.  The mandarin collar fastens with a frog closure in black to match the trim and the underbust sash.  Complete with glitch pants.

Janan

Posted By cherry on June 7, 2009

Janan. A bikini top with back cross over straps, shorts, a prim mini skirt attachment and a HOT wet t-shirt. I made the shorts first then added the skirt so if you really hate adjusting prim skirts it will work well with the shorts too. Three versions, red and gold diamonds, purple and green, and a brown and gold mottled effect. These are the PG versions of the pic, the hot version is in the store :-)



Dramatica2

Posted By cherry on June 7, 2009

This is Gothic meets River Dance! I released this originally just over a year ago and I’ve given it a thorough overhaul as part of the policy to bring all the old favourites bang up to date. The only thing that remains unchanged is the black lace prim collar. The top has a corset style laced closure in hot purple with blanket stitch trim, matched on the pockets, with bow embellishment. The skirt is black with dramatic panels of white lace over purple, complete with prim waistband. Finished off with striped stockings and glitch shorts.
