September Celebrations at Enticing Designs

And boy do we have a lot to celebrate!  This may be my only post for this month (due to upcoming travel) but I’ve planned ahead!  There are FOUR (4) big new exciting new releases for the ladies this month, and some really exciting news for everyone, so stick around a bit and enjoy the fun!

Electric-Scoop-Neck-Long-Sleeve-Top-FeatureFirst up is the new Electric Scoop Neck Long Sleeve Top collection.  Now, I know that you’re thinking…”long sleeves in September?!”…but yes, some of us are in need of long sleeves at this time of the year!  This curve hugging top is designed with a loosely knit breathable texture that is comfortable no matter what the weather is like outside, and we all love a splash of cheerful color don’t we?  This is my birth month celebration pick, made of rigged mesh in 5 standard sizes (XXS – L) and available individually in 10 fabulous colors or in an All Color Value Pack with a texture change HUD.

Pinstripe-Denim-Micro-Miniskirt-FeatureYes, I said birth month celebration!  In my Tribe (as a very dear friend recently described our real life social network), our 20+ year tradition isn’t just to celebrate birthdays, we celebrate whole birth months!  Imagine a whole month of eating what you want, when you want, where you want!  And yes, even a whole month of free passes for other things too!  Want to get away from it all?  It’s your Birth Month! Had too much fun with your friends Friday night?  It’s your Birth Month!  Arguing with your better half over the remote?  They have to concede…it’s your Birth Month!  So my 2nd birth month pick is a variation on a real life wardrobe staple of mine; the Pinstripe Denim Micro Miniskirt Collection.

I love miniskirts because they’re comfortable, cool, they show off your legs, and if you’re short like me, they also make you look just a bit taller!  Even in cooler weather they can be paired with leggings or tights to match a top and they’re always in style!  Try pairing these with the Electric Scoop Neck Long Sleeve Top (I did) and see how fabulous you look!  These are also made of rigged mesh available in 5 standard sizes (XXS – L), available individually in 10 pinstriped colors or in an All Color Value Pack with a texture change HUD.  Both are out now in the Mainstore, drop by and try a DEMO today!

Passion-Play-Web-FeatureThe Passion Play collection is another playful, colorful set I’ve been toying with.  The colors just drew me in and I had to hold myself back because this collection could easily have gotten out of hand!  Made to Mix and Match, these items are available individually so you can pick and choose what you want and how you want it!  Just one Tie Back Halter catch your eye?  Want to pair a pink tie back halter with a blue ruffled skirt?  It’s your choice!  Both items are made of rigged mesh, 10 color combinations, 5 sizes (XS – XL), and are available individually or in All Color Value Packs with a texture change HUD.  Right now they’re only at the Mainstore, but I may put them on Marketplace in the near future.

2015-Simplicity-Web-FeatureThe Simplicity Collection is all about getting back to basics.  Another designed to Mix and Match collection, this one is value priced to support new mesh designers in a fashionable way!  V-neck Fitted Tees makes use of assets from the Free KCreations V-neck T-shirt Developers Kit by Kat Fetisov available here.  Enticing Designs likes to support and promote new creators / designers whenever possible and we proudly give a shout out to Kat for this awesome full perm mesh!  As a designer who has been learning and working on making my own meshes for months I can promise you this is not easy, and Kat deserves our full support!  I’ve designed her mesh with a basic Dotted / Dappled design to coordinate with the Simplicity (DD) Hip-Cut Cuffed Shorts, which were also picked up from a new mesh designer when mesh was new to SL!  Yes folks, these items have been sitting in my inventory for a long time, unused until now.  They weren’t made to go together but designed and paired together they look great!  Support Content Creators in SL – these items are value priced – available individually, the top comes in 5 sizes and the shorts in 6, and each item can be purchased in an All Color Value Pack with texture change HUD.  Both items are only available at the Mainstore.

And this brings me to my last  Celebrating Newness news, and it’s not just about clothing or designs!  I’ve already eluded to the fact that I’m learning to make my own meshes – but there is so much more!  A dear friend of mine who recognizes how daunting my tasks as creator/designer/and store owner can be, has generously offered to take over a huge portion of the marketing tasks.  I’m certain everyone will welcome Di with open arms as I have, and know that her voice will be the one behind communications with groups and Facebook.  Please respect her privacy and continue to contact me if you have any problems, Di is the new voice of Enticing Designs, however I am still the main contact should you have any issues that need to be addressed.

Facebook?  Yes, we now have a Facebook!  Di was a bit distraught that I didn’t market Enticing Designs as I should have all these years, so she’s bringing us up to speed.  Thank her for doing this not me, because without her, it wouldn’t be possible.  One person can’t possibly handle everything on their own for a store this size, and I’m living proof.

Groups?  Yes!  There are two now!  The standard Subscribe-o-Matic group (which doesn’t take up an in world group slot) and receives general information, and a new, in world, VIP group!  Another design by Di, the new VIP group does have a fee to join which alleviates spam and phishing, but it also gives access to group gifts, group lucky boards, group mania, group discounts, special group sales, and so much more!  Look for Di as a moderator over this group – I’m available most of the time but she has hours West of me and can assist when I’m not around. Look for the new Social Media board in the Mainstore with the group joiner.

And lastly, a hint of what’s to come…

A VIP gathering space with VIP group only Midnight Mania & Group Lucky Chairs is already in place.  Items for VIP group boards are items currently in the main store.  Locate these on the 2nd floor of *CHALK* which is where all items for classic avatars (layer clothing with and without appliers) will soon be located.  Gift items from !Zing (Body Avatar: Eyes, Skins, Shapes, Tattoos, Makeups & Poses) will also be available here in the near future when I am ready for that division to open (see feature gift wall), however, advance gifts will be available to the VIP group.  A photo room with changeable photo cubes is open to the public…and…I’ll leave a little to your imagination for later…

See you next time!  <3 Enticing

Summer Promotional Items Are Here!

2015-July-Opalescence-FeatureDon’t let the feature picture fool you, there’s lots of fun for both men and women in store! (pun intended) I may have been away working SL12B over recent weeks, but that doesn’t mean I forgot about my friends. Absolutely not! I was dreaming up fun new promotional items for everyone!

First up, featured at top are the new Opalescence Gowns! Rigged mesh available in eight (8) luxurious cool summer colors, this curve hugging gown is sure to capture attention! Made in 5 sizes (XS through XL) and promotional priced at just L$100 each, you’ll definitely want to visit the ladies formal wear department on the 2nd floor of the Mainstore and try the Demo, look for the large wall display!

Second, I haven’t forgotten you manly male beasts out there, but I had to make this next promotional item available for all my girls too! I neglected to post about the new 2015 swimwear lines (men’s and women’s), but I had a chance to make these ultra-cool mesh flip flops that matched both lines and I just couldn’t pass it up!

AD-MP-Box-BFFHud-Mens

AD-MP-Box-BFFHud-Ladies

Now get this; Both come with a HUD, and in that HUD are forty (40) different base textures, and six (6) different strap textures! Six (6) of those base textures are popular solid colors (with matching straps) so you can wear them with just about anything! There are stars, and stripes, and polka dots, and nautical designs that match the new swimwear lines, and, oh yeah…a primary color-block design that almost everyone loves! The men’s flip flop is old-style thin and comes with both classic avatar and SLink mesh feet versions. The ladies flip flop is thick platform-style, and comes with the classic avatar, SLink Flat foot, and Belleza flat feet versions. Both come with my signature optional ankle-lock for shoes and poses, and are promotional priced just right at L$199! Look for them just inside the front door at the Mainstore and check out the new summer swim lines nearby!

Another fun little item for the ladies, also available in the 2nd floor ladies formal wear department, are these unique Flutter Gowns.

2015-July-Flutter-FeatureWho says formal has to be stuffy and can’t be fun? Three dimensional butterflies flit about the skirt, while a large mother butterfly cutout top manages to cover all the right bits in all the right places. Combined together, they make this unique gown both classy, and classically sexy at the same time! Another rigged mesh item, this fantastic gown is available in nine (9) hot summer colors sized XS through XL, and has a promotional price of just L$100! Demos are available only at the Mainstore!

Again, and I can’t stress this enough, these items are NOT available on MarketPlace nor do I plan to list them there. These are strictly Mainstore promotional items, so don’t miss out!

One last tidbit…the Nevermore Summer Solstice Hunt is still ongoing in the Mainstore through July 21st! Check out the hunt with SLURLS and hints here: Summer Solstice Hunt 2015 – Time Traveler

See you on the grid!
