(Elate!) Updates: Fifty Linden Friday - Black Friday Edition!

Of all the Fifty Linden Fridays to make it to, this is the one you cannot miss! It is the first day of the holiday shopping season and a great day for sales, SL included! 49 of the grid's top stores have items out for you from 12:00 am to 11:59 pm on Friday. Mine will be out a little early (as in, now), because I must go to bed! Here are my two fifty linden items this week:


Black Friday is upon us, and so is a brand new party dress that I'm excited to be releasing.
This dress is a sleek, sexy, simple classic with a black three-quarter length sleeved top and a short, sparkly skirt. It's easily accessorized for all those up coming holiday parties.

(Elate!) Updates: Tuli Dress and Fifty Linden Friday

I'm happy to be releasing a brand new, cozy sweater dress that will make you want to curl up by a fire. The cowl goes nearly up to the nose like a scarf. In fact, the cowl can be worn on it's own as a snuggly scarf.





I'm thrilled to participate in this week's Fifty Linden Friday. I've put the navy blue version of the new Tuli dress for just 50 lindens until midnight tonight!




If you haven't heard of Fifty Linden Friday, here's the info and the other designers:





Every Friday, a group of designers will place an item in the front of their mainstore marked down for 50L. The item might be something from the store marked down, or maybe an exclusive, special item. Each week the designers and items will rotate. The items will be available on Friday from 12am SLT to 11:59pm SLT. You can get the items by following the LMs in this note.

This week, the designers are:


4. Turnip’s Homes & Stuff – http://slurl.com/secondlife/Lloyd/135/235/23

9. Penny Dreadful Arcade – http://slurl.com/secondlife/Harold/85/75/30

10. Turquoise Unicorn Studios – http://slurl.com/secondlife/Oxygen/76/213/22


Also, MARK YOUR CALENDARS: On November 27th we will be doing a special 'Black Fifty Linden Friday' to celebrate the biggest shopping day of the year, Black Friday! Featuring 45+ stores offering all new or exclusive FLF items. Stuff you can't get anywhere else, for only 50 Lindens. Oh my heck!

Sunny Sim Trick or Treat Event

From now until Halloween, Sunny sim is having a Trick or Treat event!

Instructions are simple:

1) Come to the sim and grab a free HUD from one of the many signs on the sim.

2) Wearing your HUD, search the sim for bones to fill in the spaces on the skeleton.

3) Each HUD piece corresponds to a specific shop on Sunny. When you collect a piece of the HUD, you can go to that shop and click the doorbell next to the front door to get your prize!

Sometimes the doorbells can get confused if there are too many people wearing HUDs and standing near them, so once you get your prize, please move along and let the other little kiddies get their's!

Costumes are encouraged!




Participating shops:
Malt
Whippet & Buck
Fri.Day
Tiny Bird
Sh*t Happens
Twosome
(Elate!)
Decoy
Sugarcube
!Ohmai

Some of the prizes:







And many more!

Also, you must stop by Decoy. Annette is having a half off sale at her entire shop to celebrate the two year anniversary of her shop opening! She has even lost her mind and marked down a ton of items in Decoy to FREE!

Elise Dress, Group Gift, and New Rings

Several updates in the past few days! First, for the next two weeks, many of the vendors of Albero and Cioccolata are participating in a Gatcha Gatcha Festival. If you're not familiar with this game, each shop owner puts a machine out and lists the prizes in the machine. You pay a set price (usually between L$10-L$35) and it will give you one of the prizes randomly. It's really fun to try to get different prizes. Even if you can't get the one you had your eye on, you can still get so many really cute things for really cheap! The festival runs until the end of the month.

My Gatcha Gatcha has 6 prizes in it, all brand new! There are two versions of a curvy, retro mod lamp along with 4 colors of my brand new Elise dress. I've included the yellow version of the new dress as a group gift because I love you all so much!! You can get it in the history of my hippo group or by searching "Elate!" in groups and joining there. Here's the ad for the rest of the prizes:



Also note, all of my prizes (and most of everyone's prizes) are mod and trans so if you get two of something, you can trade with a friend! You can find all of the Gatcha machines here:

Second, I have always loved statement jewelry pieces, and I'm happy to be adding another piece to my small jewelry collection. These have large, square, semi-precious stones encased in sterling silver and can be found both at my mainstore as well as at Jewelry Fair 2009. Jewelry fair began yesterday and should be unlike most fairs you've attended. The organizers have gone to enormous lengths to avoid lagging the sims. You will find no sculpted prims, very minimal scripts, and a layout which allows your computer to rez just a few shops at a time. You should definitely go see all the great designers taking part. Proceeds from auctions and select sales (including some of mine) are going to Oxfam, an international nonprofit group working to end poverty and injustice worldwide.
















I have also made a new color, by request, of my rose ring:

PS- Expect big news from me around the beginning of October. I'm just saying...
