Happy St. Patrick’s Day
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Have no green and can’t fathom dressing like a Leprechaun? Never fear! NachtMusik is here to help with the Galiant Forest Leather Suit. It features a gorgeous green leather long waistcoat atop a founcy silky white shirt and a pair of saddle leather trousers.
Love the idea but not the flounce? The shirt is finished beneath the arm attachments, so you may wear it with or without the flounce.
And just for today (though possibly a day or so after depending on work *sigh*), it’s only 50L. A full suit that’s not so tackily green that you can wear it all year, only 50L.
MENstuff Finds
Didn’t get to do too much hunting before my motion sickness took over. Got to maybe a quarter of what was out there starting from Prodigal, where I had to have the damned gold mesh shirt and was going to hunt until I got it. Love it, but it didn’t make this look.
The fun thing with hunts, aside from the freebies, is rediscovering stores you loved but haven’t been into in a while and finding new stores (well, new to me) to obsess over. 
Simple rundown:
I slipped on an undershirt since A:S:S pants tend to show a lot of, well, ass and I’m a little prude about that. I wear and enjoy a lot of A:S:S. I consider myself an A:S:S man. The store has a bit for everyone, from the nerdy indie look to the risque clubwear. I fall somewhere in between. Nerdy risque? I dunno. But the price is always right and the quality pleasing.
DECO I love, but last time I was there the offerings were only jewelry (this should tell you how long ago this was) but now there are boots and a fedora you can fling and it boomerangs back. How cool is that? I also bought a cute little art deco display table that’s copy/modify and only 2 prims for only 200Ls. Deal and a half. I’ll be putting that everywhere. Well, not everywhere but you know what I mean. There’s a mix of accessories, women’s wear, boots, trees, and furniture. Go for the boots, stay for the chandelier.
MiaMai is new to me. I could easily go completely broke buying jackets there alone. Really interesting designs that aren’t the sort of thing you see everywhere and the quality is very good–unlike some innovators who are very sloppy about matching seams. A little pricey for what I usually spend, but thus far looks worth it.
I also really loved the Zaara Adyan Kurta, though I didn’t wear it for this blog. It’s lovely and deserves mention, though. And, of course, the Prodigal gold mesh shirt.
That’s just a fraction of what’s available at the MENstuff Hunt and doesn’t even cover what all I loved there. That would take forever to write and read. And, as I said, didn’t get to all of it. Great stuff, but hunt quick, the hunt ends on the last day of February.
Kitten Madness
Theodore and I adopted some kittens.
I couldn't have been happier about my kitten
I was full of love and adoration.
But I couldn't resist teaching them bad habits.
Theo loves me anyway, but Hera thinks, "Not in front of the kids!"
Get your own KittyCatS!
Zombie Popcorn Hunt
Because I can’t resist anything zombie related, ManCandy is participating in the Zombie Popcorn Hunt, April 15th-May 2nd.
What can you expect from ManCandy? A sexy new Hipster Suit with plaid vest, prim collar, plaid pants and a striped sweater. Each piece is offered on several layers for ease of mix and match for those who aren’t bold enough to mix stripes and plaids (which is probably most people who aren’t me or Theodore–and even Theodore thinks I’m a little over the top.)
Here comes the ZombiePopcorn Hunt sponsored by www.zombiepopcornsl.com on April 15th-May 2nd.
The Kick-Off Event is to be held on April 15 at the Urbanity Sim from 1-3 PM SLT featuring DJ Booch Capelo, resident DJ at Dance4Life & Choon Lounge.
Then the hunt is on! You are searching for the one of a kind ZombiePopcorn Doll in his Red/White striped popcorn bag. For more information stop by the ZombiePopcorn HQ and tap the Hunt Joiner.
Chasing the Dragon Gowns
After a disgruntled young lady IM’ed me annoyed that 1) I’m prettier androgynous than she as as a real girl (that’s not what she said, exactly, this is how I took it) and 2) that it was unfair that I offered the Chasing the Dragon outfits in suits rather than dresses.
I had to admit that I have been neglectful to female patrons, feeling that most of what I make works well for both sexes. But, if you are more skirt inclined, there was nowhere to turn as far as the Chasing the Dragon pattern went.
Until now.

Steam Dragon
I wanted to prepare a more couture approach to Steampunk, adding a spring sheerness, dramatic collar and sculpty cravat and cuffs. Theodore calls the look “insouciant.” It’s not for every man, but it has a lot of flair with gorgeous Chinese silk and pintucked detail.
On sale now for only 100L each

Alexander
Contrary to popular belief, we are still alive and we have actually been putting things out, just very quietly. Sneaky-like in the night. So as not to flood the world, I’m going to try to post these over the next few days. This is the first, it’s something I made inspired by Alexander McQueen, though not a copy of anything in particular.
It’s funny. I didn’t cry when I found out he was gone. I don’t know if it was denial or what. But watching his last show brought me to tears. To lose that kind of vision and talent, that beautiful brain, gone. I still get teary thinking about it. That’s when it really hit me. Anyway, putting this together made me feel a little better. It’s nowhere near his talent, just my humble tribute.

End of Year Look
I predict this to be my last post of the year and I’m feeling a little melancholy about the year that’s past, but optimistic about the year yet to come. It’s been a little crazy and I’m not going to be sorry to see it behind me.
Tonight I’m feeling snuggly in a nice warm cardigan from CheerNo in pink. I love jeans, but there has to be something special about them to get me to part with Lindens. These from Gbbrish with the tiger on make me happy.
I hung out at The Velvet tonight to listen to Lux Yao, Astrud Sands, and Niko Lyle playing their top songs of 2009. My free tousled hair from booN and House of Curios glasses made me feel quite indie indeed as I brooded on a stained old couch.
