50 Shades of Sexy: Week 2 – Better than Chocolate

“Your love is better than chocolate, better than anything else that I’ve tried” ~ sarah mclachlan

I’m having a horrible time thinking of things to write for these 50 Shades posts because, in my opinion, the photos speak for themselves. The goal of this challenge began as a way to highlight some of the lingerie available in Second Life. For me it has turned into something so much more… a way to express myself and my sensuality. It will be interesting to see where this journey takes me…

Waiting for him. 

Definitely better than chocolate…

Blogger Challenge: 50 Shades of Sexy!

Inspired by Juicybomb’s 12 Days of Lingerie, Unapologetic Second Life Fashion Blog brings you:

Toss out the 50 Shades of Grey book, and lets bring something sexier to the table. Christian Grey can’t hold a candle to the smoking hotness we’re about to unleash.

So here’s how it works. Beginning the week of January 13th, and for the next 50 weeks, we will provide you with a wantonly sexy prompt; a word, a phrase, or a lyric. From there, we rely on your smoldering appeal to create and blog the look that you feel best fits the prompt.  Then post your photos to the 50 Shades of Sexy Flickr Group!

One seductive photo a week for 50 weeks. Are you woman (or man) enough to take this on? Can you handle it?

I’ll be posting all of the prompts on my blog on January 13th and will issue weekly reminders on the blog and on Plurk. Let’s flaunt our SL SIZZLE!

xoxo

12 Days of Lingerie Day 8: Upside Down

Shiloh is out having real world fun, and asked me to hold down the fort here. So, since I’m in charge, I’m going to turn things upside down and backwards!

I recently got a computer that can handle shadows. These pics are my very first view of the Second Life world with shadows enabled. I’ve got a lot to learn. It’s not just a matter of enabling shadows and snapping a pic! Why can’t things be easy?

One thing that’s easy is finding good deals on Second Life fashion. This lingerie I’m wearing is being sold at Collabor88 this month. From Whippet & Buck, the Tess Underthings set comes in 6 colors for 88L each.  There are several incredible designers involved each  month at Collabor88, and I seldom leave without having bought at least half of the items available.

When Shiloh started the Unapologetic Second Life Fashion Blog, one request she made was to post un-photoshopped pics that accurately show the fashion we’re posting. So, these shots have been cropped, and nothing else. I hope you can make out the detail on this set, as it’s quite sweet and very well done.  Whippet & Buck nails it, every time.

I nailed it too. Good form, smooth transition. Just couldn’t stick the landing.

What I’m Wearing:

Skin: Curio

Hair: Dylan from Fri.day

Lingerie: Tess from Whippet & Buck 

 

12 Days of Lingerie Day 7: Spring Up!

After a long winter, my home sim turned green again! While I loved the look of the snow, it’s amazing how uplifting Spring can be. Logging in to a green sim puts some serious spring in my step and makes me want to dress lighter, too. I intended to TP over to the Unapologetic Second Life Fashion Blog headquarters to snap some pics, but I just couldn’t bring myself to leave the green. Instead I floated all the way around my sim, taking in how beautiful Second Life can be.

 

And nothing makes me feel lighter than dainty undies. I’m wearing an older set from a classic designer, but I don’t think age takes anything away from the quality of the design. Blowpop has been around Second Life fashion for as long as I have, and I still wear the very first items I purchased there. The Jolene set is perfectly made, right down to the tiny bows on the garter straps. The edges are crisp and clean, and the textures are realistic. And Blowpop is good about providing every single piece on every single layer possible, which I’ve always appreciated.

I chose not to wear stockings this time, due to  my furry feets. But Blowpop does sell my most favorite fishnets on all of the grid. You can find Blowpop’s Jolene Set on the Second Life Marketplace here. And if you want to know more about my Chincilla avi, you can read about her here at my blog, Whiskey Shots. I didn’t wear her tail today, so that you could have a gander at the stunning detail on the back of this set:

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go float home and plant some flowers!

12 Days of Lingerie Day 6: Firework

xFAILx I know I know, please forgive me. I have failed the lingerie challenge. But please believe me when I say I am trying my best. Sometimes RL just gets in the way, you all know how it is, right? So, today I was planning on giving you a double feature with days 6 and 7, but I am just so, so tired and I don’t want to deliver a second rate review. I will catch up tomorrow!

Day 6 is a gorgeously feminine little outfit that just begs for romance. This Sweet Nothings lingerie from Mon Cheri in midnight celebrates all that is old hollywood, glamour and the feminine. So many times when designers try to do “sparkles” or rhinestones on an outfit, they end up looking flat and stretched. Freya Oliveri does an amazing job with these jewels, they look so realistic, I can almost see them shimmer. By know you all should know that I am a stickler for “finishing.” Finished edges are must on any Second Life fashion piece I wear. If a designer doesn’t take the time to finish the edges, it kind of makes me feel like they don’t have much pride in their work. But hey, that’s just me, and this outfit is finished perfectly.

Freya also provides you with multiple layers and different ways to wear the outfit. Here are a few options:

I thought this look was particularly sassy. I love the bra top with the little skirt!

This combination is so damn hawt! I had to strategically cover most of it with my hair, however, the pasty layer consists of little jewels covering the breast, kind of in the shape of a firework burst. So naturally, it made me think of Katy Perry and her song Firework!

Lingerie: Mon Cherie Sweet Nothings (Midnight)

Hair: Truth Cassandra (Espresso)

Skin: LAQ Thea (Nougat)

12 Days of Lingerie Day 5: With You

I can’t help it. I’m a sucker for romance and the closer we get to Valentine’s Day, the mushier I become. I know sometimes I come across as a bit of a wild child, but deep down I have the same needs as anyone else. The need to be appreciated, the need to be understood and the need to be loved. Lucky for me I’ve found that special person who takes me as I am, crazy and all. You probably all think he’s a saint, I know I do. I am not an easy to handle. Not. One. Bit. Today’s look is dedicated to my softer side. The side that gets butterflies every time he’s near, the side that misses him dearly when he’s not around. The side that tells him I can’t imagine a world without him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there’s a little cream filling inside this tough cookie. Let’s just keep it our little secret, ‘k?

The outfit I’m wearing is called Lacely by Angelic Lefevre Couture. I had been staring at this outfit on Second Life Marketplace for over a week now, wondering if the design would really look that soft and lovely in person. I can answer with a resounding YES! The quality of the design is excellent, there are no unfinished edges, the lace texture is simply gorgeous and the little tassels and scalloped lace finish this sexy little number up just perfectly. The back of the outfit is laced up like a corset and is just to-die-for. I know I should have taken a picture of it, but I began daydreaming about my baby and well… my mind began to wander. Forgive me? Also pictured is a set of prim nails from Sins & Virtue. I can’t believe I have lucked out two times in a row and found prim nails that actually need virtually no adjustment! The cool thing about this set is that it comes with a handy dandy little hud that changes size (10, 20 and 30), length of nail, shape of nail and a ton of different colors and designs. It’s pretty fan-freaking-tastic!

So now that I am looking all sexy-fied, I’ll sit back and continue to get all gooey melty inside thinking of that special guy,while I listen to our song:

12 Days of Lingerie Day 4: Bunneh!

Hey howdy hey! I’m Whiskey Day, and I’ll be guest blogging here for Shiloh! I’m going to try to behave myself here since I’m a guest, but anyone who knows me can tell you, that’s tough for me.

Since this is a blog about Second Life Fashion, it’s only right to include some furry fashion here. There are tons of full time furries in Second Life and many folks who just slip into a furry suit every now and then for fun.  And it is fun! If you’ve never been a furry inworld, why not? Being a furry can bring a different kind of fun into your second life. If you’re not having fun, then you’re not doing it right!

For the 12 Days of Lingerie Challenge, I’ve chosen to show off a set of my all-time favorite delicates, from Zaara. I love the deep red, love the black details and adore the perfectly crisp edges. All too often, lingerie edges blur into the skin and look weird. But this set is perfect all the way around. The Kanti set from Zaara is available at the SL Marketplace, but I recommend you go to the mainstore to shop, as it’s a lovely build and a good idea to support inworld shopping when you can.

I’ll be posting regularly here at the Unapologetic Second Life Fashion Blog, and I’ll be focusing on Second Life Fashion for furries. Furry avatars face special challenges when it comes to fit. Modifications of prim parts are almost always necessary. I’ll talk about what works for me, and what doesn’t.

Which furry avatar do you wear in Second Life?  What problems have you face when getting dressed? I’d love to hear!
