So as promised...a cpl more new dresses today @ CKSD! ;)
First up is a little summery confection with a dangerously cleavage-y square cut bodice. It didn't start OUT this cleavage-y...but...I kept adjusting...and adjusting...and then I LIKED the cleavage-y so there it stayed. The texture on this one is a soft 3 color gradient that sorta reminded me of those rocket pops we used to get when we were kids. (And well...if you don't know what a rocket pop is uhm...look here!) Therefore, I decided to call it 'Rocket Pop'. Cos hey, once I have a name, who am I to question that?!! It's finished off with a floaty layered prim skirt and I am just LOVING this dress. Summer can't come soon enough!!! This one comes in 4 yummeh colors:



A little while back, Tesa Jewell blogged about these fantastic go-go boots from Kakaue Kreation which of course I had to run right over and purchase. Back when I started designing, mod-era clothing was something I was very inspired by and I did a lot of mod designs...and these boots inspired me to want to make more! One of the first designs I ever made (long before I started blogging) was a dress called 'Mode' which featured a vertical half-black/half-white pattern. Since I HOPE I'm a better designer than I was in early 2006...I decided to do another version using this same color block pattern...hence 'Mode II'. It's the first time I've ever done a new version of an old design...I feel so OLD! :P It's not a redo of the original but rather a different style of dress using the same color pattern. This one is a sleek, short mini with a halter-style bodice. I bemoan the sl templates which allow us only one sleeve and one foot...so I couldn't make contrasting sleeves or tights...but I still think it's pretty hot. ;)
'Rocket Pop' is $L140/single or $L280/pack of 4 & 'Mode II' is $L140. All are available of course at the CKS Designs Main Shop in Selby as well as XStreet SL
Happy weekend! <33

New tonight at CKS Designs...a dress I'm really excited about! ;)
I started out with the idea for the blouse...sleeveless with a sheer top...and a big sculpted bow on the neck. Then I wanted a sexy skirt to go with it...one with a slit over one thigh. Sooo a few days of playing around with first the blouse...then the skirt...and then I decided a garter belt w/some sexy stockings would set it off nicely. I decided to call it 'Savoy'...and made it as versatile as possible...lots of layers...a blouse that works tucked in or out...a skirt that has a waist that sits normally plus an overlay to give it an optional high waist...and the garters that are going to work under lots of your favorite skirts...or even with your favorite panties if you so desire. :P
ALSO...I have a special treat in the ads...a sneak peak of one of the new Fleur Allure skins. The face is gorgeous (of course..what else would we expect from Ros & CJ? ;) ) but...it's a shame I put on clothes...b/c the body on this skin is teh HOT. More peekies to come...release is still about 2 weeks away...so get ready. :P
SO...leaving you with some piccies...they're available at the CKS Designs Main Shop in Selby as well as SL Exchange & OnRez...$L275/single or $L640/pack (skirt & garter/stockings plus 7 blouses). Happy Wednesday!! <333






Pretties:
Skin - Fleur: Allure Kitten #1, #2, & #3, Hair - ETD: Cora in Tawny, Shoes - Kitties Lair: Francine Mary-Janes in Black, Earrings - Diva Designs/Phaylen Fairchild - Dreamcatchers in Hope.

The Essential Sweater Dress (yeah...I couldn't think of a more original name :P) is a sexy, chic, simple sheath-style knit sweater dress designed to look great on its own...or as a beautiful palette for all those belts, coats, jackets, sweaters, ponchos, scarves...and all those other great fall/winter accessories you collect and seem to never use enough. It's a piece you'll find yourself reaching for again and again to put together that perfect fall/winter look...and I hope you love it as much as I do! ;)
21 Yummy colors are available (and a 22nd that went out just to CKSD group members) at the CKS Designs Main Shop in Selby as well as SL Exchange & OnRez for $L165 each...$L300 for a pack of 3...or $L1500 for the entire pack of 21. Some piccies follow...happy shopping! ;) <333

YAYYY Pretties!!
A couple of new dresses today @ CKSD!!
'Victoria' started out with just the sweater...a cropped, crocheted piece with sculpted sleeves and a little sculpted peplum. Then I decided it would pair nicely with a basic knit dress. Soooo I added a black, above-the-knee length ribbed knit dress with a sculpted turtleneck & sleeves...the sort of thing that makes a great staple to your fall/winter wardrobe. The sweater comes in 10 bright colors...and is itself a great piece that will find multiple uses in your inventory!! Here's a couple of pics: ;)

'Caroline' is a sweet, floaty little mod confection of a cocktail dress...a halter-style babydoll with a sculpted collar and flexi skirt that comes in 4 vibrant colors, as well as white. I've been wearing it around (even half-finished :P) for a cpl days now...I'm in love with it!!

'Victoria' is $L275/single or $L630/pack (which includes the dress plus 10 sweaters) and 'Caroline' is $L165/single or $410/pack of 5. Both are available at the CKS Designs Main Shop in Selby as well as SL Exchange & OnRez. Happy weekend! :P <33333

When Good Girls Go Bad...
Yus...new pretties today at CKSD!! Well actually new pretties last night but I was too zonked to blog. :P
So I have to admit...when the idea hit me to do a more 'hardcore' version of the Gidget lingerie...the first person I thought of was Sasy. We've had many convos during the time I was making the original set (which btw...Sasy named) and since about how much we love ruffle-bum panties. :P
Making the Domina outfit was tons of fun...and so I really wanted to push on into something more of that style...and I loved the idea of a sexed-up version of a sweet lingerie set...and so it formed from there. 'Gidget X' is the result...a strappy, fetish-y, latex version of the original. The entire time I was working on it...I had no idea what I was going to call it...but used the 'working' title 'Gidget X' for the files...and after a few days it kinda grew on me. So...there she is. As in the Domina set...a nipply and non-nipply version of the top is included...and again at the great suggestion of Sasy...I included a version of the panties sans stockings...as well as tons of layers per the usual. I really loved working on this one...AND...thanks to my friend Val for showing me where to find the awesome whip. :P <333
'Carrie' is a shorts set with a vest-style top. I wanted something versatile...and so the top is 'finished' to work with or without the babydoll ruffle. The top is also a great piece to wear over tee-shirts etc. It's a nice set made of basic pieces that'll stretch nicely but don't look 'basic' at all.

'Miranda' is a sweater-knit dress with a style that's very reminiscent of the 80's to me...the colorblock stripes...and the colors themselves...and just the style of the dress overall. It's sort of hard to see in the pics but the stripe pattern narrows to a series of thinner stripes down the body of the dress. I couldn't decide if I wanted to be short...or *really* short...so I provided both options. The *really short* version can be worn sans glitch pants, if that's your thing. :P

'Gidget X' is $L265...'Carrie' is $L165/single or $L330/pack of 4...and 'Miranda' is $L170/single or $L425/pack of 5...all avaialble now at the CKS Designs Main Shop in Selby, as well as SL Exchange & OnRez.

A Little Sweet...A Little Spicy...
YAYYYy...a couple of late releases tonight @ CKSD...chock full of cute & sexy goodness!!
So...I love trying out new things...experimenting etc...and I've been wanting to delve into something like this for a little while. Hence tonight's first release, 'Domina'...a latex-y...skin-baring coat that comes with a little (very little :P) pair of booty shorts (though I find it equally at home with a pair of jeans). The coat has an open front...with cut-outs in the front and back. The version in the ad is a bit uhmm...nipply...but, at the excellent suggestion/request of the lovely Sasy...a more 'modest' coat is also included sans nipple effect. (A funny request for someone whom, on first viewing said...'dip the back more...show a little crack'...:P). I had a lot of fun working on this one...so maybe I'll delve a little more in the future...we shall see. Here's a piccie! <33
Today's other release is completely different from Domina...a cute little ballet-inspired sundress that I chose to call 'Sorbet' because that's what the colors reminded me of. The dress has a simple tank-style bodice with ribbon trim at the waist & zipper detail in the back, with a sweet little girly skirt overlayed with tulle and tried off with a big bow in the back. The dress is very short...but...if you're so inclined...it's perfectly wearable sans the included glitch pants. ;) She comes in 5 sweet & yummy colors...and here are a cpl piccies for your viewing pleasure: :P

'Domina' is $L245 & 'Sorbet' is $L140 single/$L350 pack of 5...available now at the CKS Designs Main Shop in Selby, as well as SL Exchange & OnRez.
Happy shopping!! <3333
