TRICK OR TREAT

I’ve got two treats for you, and one trick that ends up becoming a treat!

TREAT NUMBER ONE: As part of the Second Style Halloween Sale, I have reduced all my lower floor items to only L$25. For some items, that’s the price already, but for others it’s about 80% off. Don’t miss this sale – it is one day only! Come pick up high quality dresses, jewellery, swimwear, lingerie, tops, and more!

SALE LOCATION: alaskametro<3 on Second Style Island
October 31 ONLY – don’t miss it!!

TREAT NUMBER TWO: I’ve got an exclusive, Halloween-only makeup gift for you! Come to the main landing point for Second Style Island on October 31, and you can pick up a makeup based on style icon Siouxsie Sioux, free. (requires SL 2.0+ “Tattoo” layer)

Why Siouxsie? Well, this is my Halloween costume for First Life. I’ll be sure to post some photos of my costume in both SL and RL tomorrow so you can see how well I managed to pull it off!

The “Siouxsie” makeup is only available tomorrow, October 31, 2010 at the Second Style Island landing point. It looks best with skin bases by alaskametro<3 since it was designed for them – but you can always try it over other skins to see if it works! Some shape adjustment is probably required due to the heavy makeup and Siouxsie’s distinctive eyebrows and lip shape.

YOUR TRICK: ONE skin base will be L$1 tomorrow, for Halloween only (L$900 value.) Which hair colour and skintone will it be? You’ll just have to find out for yourself… good luck!

Get your beach look for less this summer!

As part of Second Style Island’s Kick Off Summer Sale, my store will be doing a one-week only L$10 sale of all swimwear! This is a great chance to stock up for all those beach getaways and poolside parties everyone (including me, but I’m too busy making clothes to attend) gets invited to.

When: June 1 – June 8, 2010 (NOW!)

Where: Second Style Island, alaskametro <3 store

Why: I think it’s self explanatory.

“May Flowers” hunt – now on!

Phew… it’s been a lot of running around between Arkaine and I, but we’ve got a fun and hopefully challenging hunt for you! Find all ten red flowers to put together a complete avatar look.

Start here: alaskametro <3 main store @ Second Style Island

The hunt runs from May 15th to 20th… on the 20th at midnight I’ll take away the flowers.

I have some tips:

1) The flowers yield to gravity. That means, though they may be growing in odd spots, they won’t be floating in mid-air or other silly places.

2) When in doubt, look closer to the store. All the flowers are either in, on or around the main store, or in the park nearby… or other public areas…

3) The flowers can sometimes be behind things. They’ll never be contained inside another object, unlike the devilish but oh-so-worth it Mata Hari ballroom hunt by Random Calliope (a wonderful puzzle, though I’m not sure if it’s still around.) They’re all visible but sometimes you need to walk around… get a different angle…

4) The flowers are sculpted and small. You can easily miss them. Especially if you’re running Second Life on bare minimum graphics. Take your time when hunting and allow the area to fully load, so the flowers aren’t mere blobs.

5) While you’re around, window shop… Second Style Island has some great things to offer by Second Life’s top fashion designers!

Have fun!
