Elixir Couples in Camo Contest Winners!

I am so excited.  Zak and I entered the Couples in Camo photo contest by Elixir, and we were one of the winners!   Elixir makes the only latex clothing I will wear.  I'm picky and their designs are very detailed and the textures are great.   You don't look like your wearing a cheap super hero outfit.  They have a variety of pants, tops, jackets, dresses, and any other type of accessory you could need to go with them.  Our friends Phinn and Xander were also winners.   Check out the Elixir Blog after Sunday February 1, 2009 to see all the winners.   Thanks again Elf Juran and Khorus Magne for such a great line of clothing and great stores.   Have a good week everyone!

A good day for darkness.

Today is a dark day for women everywhere.  Kay Yow, the basketball coach for NC State University passed away last night after a long battle with breast cancer.  I never met her, but always admired her strength and caring as it was portrayed in the press.   I am always proud to see women who want to be role models and show that we can be strong, caring, loving, and not what everyone thinks we should be.   Say a prayer tonight for all the women who have been your role model or mentor, and try to be one for someone else.  

PEER

PEER is a great shop owned by a very good friend, Phinneas Vella. Phinn creates very sophisticated shapes and sells them with a full styling card for L$500. The card details what skin, hair, and clothes the models are wearing in the ad pictures.

Phinn has also recently introduced a line of witty shirts. I am wearing the Bride shirt from a set of Bride and Groom shirts he designed for Wedding Elegance. The shirts all have catchy sayings for SL, like Prim Whore, Rezzing, and other clever remarks. They are a steal at L$50. Come check out PEER and all the other great shops at Hatteras Plaza.

Beefcake! At Hatteras Plaza

Beefcake  is a clothing store for the hot male avatar!   Tylo Mabellon is the designer and he makes incredibly detailed jeans,  t-shirts, hoodies, tanks, and men's briefs.  The shop sells great looking men's active wear at really good prices.  There is a wonderful selection of colors and t-shirt designs.  He has a smaller store at Hatteras but there is a LM to his larger flagship store in this shop.   We are really pleased to have Beefcake as our anchor store at Hatteras.  Please take some time and come check it out.   

More store profiles to come!   Have a great week.     http://slurl.com/secondlife/Hatteras%20Island/34/225/22 

New Mall at Hatteras Plaza

I never imagined being a mall owner.  In RL I grew up in retail.  My dad worked for a department store for 42 years.  They opened the mall in my home town when I was 3.  From then on I was at the mall 3-4 times a week.  Mainly because Dad worked there and if we wanted to see him we had to go there.  :-)  Then I started working there when I was 15.  I never thought I would own a mall.  Well you never know what you will get into, especially in SL.  For the next couple of posts I will highlight each store in the mall.   For tonight I will just tell you about the mall.   It's called Hatteras Plaza and it's located on Hatteras Island.  http://slurl.com/secondlife/Hatteras%20Island/137/240/25  is the SLURL.  The build was done by Ander Galthie.  He has a great eye and does a wonderful job with textures.  A lot of builders don't have the focus on details that Ander does.  There are eight stores in the first phase.  We are also in construction of a phase II.   Please take a few minutes out of your SL day and come by to see us.   There a lot of great stores and we promise to keep improving and expanding.  

Happy New Year!

To all our friends in SL, have a happy and wonderful New Year! Thank you for all the fun of the past year and we look forward to many more days and nights of fun in 2009. - Love CJ & Zak
