The Changes Just Keep Coming

Oh, my! It has been way too long since my last post. I apologize. So much has happened that I don't know where to start ... so I'll just write a couple of important things now and save the rest for another day.

First ... I closed my old shop on Elysian Isle. I know, it was a beautiful location and it was where I started selling my designs in SL, so it was hard to let it go. Still, many things had changed on Elysian Isle and traffic had dropped enough that I felt it was time to move on.

So now everything is in my second shop on Rich Id..... Oh, no! .... that's the other big change. The Rich Idiot sim is not Rich Idiot any more. It's Only Yesterday, and I'm the manager of the island. That's it in the new banner photo at the top of this blog.

Now you really do have to come visit. The island itself is really wonderful -- too many things to describe in one post, so I'll save that. We have other fine shops on the plaza, too, and the merchants are all good, friendly, imaginative women. And, there are four completely furnished homes for rent on the island, so you can come and live there yourself if you want to.

Come any time. If you want to help celebrate, though, our Grand Opening will be on Sunday, August 10th from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. SLT. We'll have great music and dancing on the plaza and all sorts of other things to see and do. Mark the date on your calendar now, and I'll tell you more as the day gets closer.



With all of that change, I haven't had as much time to design as I would like. :( BUT, I put my little bits of spare time into making a really high-quality gown that you are going to love. Here it is.

I'm calling this design Wild Daisies. The fabric is a delicate two-tone print of a stylized field of daisies on a rich golden-yellow base. The ankle-length skirt has two layers, the outer one being graceful and semi-transparent, and the inner one a more substantial fabric to give the dress body.

The strapless bodice has a demure but deep-plunging neckline, trimmed with yellow lace -- just the right design for showing off a favorite necklace. The dress is finished with a wide, matching belt with a flat bow in front.


This is such a fun dress to wear to a formal dance! It swishes beautifully, especially in those slow, elegant dances.

As always, you can buy one at my shop. Just remember .... it's on Only Yesterday now.

What a lovely surprise! Thank you so much for the kind note. Your buildings fit the theme of our sim perfectly, so they were a natural for the shops on the plaza.

I hope you send a lot of your potential customers our way, so they can see your creations "in the field." And I hope you can make it to our grand opening on August 10, so we can give you public recognition.
