Woah... Where did I go?

It doesn't matter, but let me tell you something that does--I made new dresses! (and they're probably my best work yet)

Ta-daaaaaaaaa.

I called them Tart Dresses. Because if you like these dresses you look like a tart, and you probably are one at heart. I worked ultra hard on these the past few weeks so you better enjoy them at a fair price of 235. and you better buy them because I need rent money. Lol.

If these go well it will probably once again light my SL fire that died in a ditch a few months ago.

Maybe.

Okay, anyways, that is all.

You can go get them on the marketplace HERE!

K bye.

Took this at Joseph's place in his beach cottage, it's so marvy there! Anyways, been off task and in reality. I am planning on a come back, looking for small places for sattelite stores and other nice things to be involved in. I'm just worried that I don't have enough content to level out with the rest because I delete older items right away when I'm not satisfied with them anymore. Oh, well, we will see!

Oh and P.S. if you haven't seen the new shop you really should. click for a limo to the: New Store

Knock knock

Hi!
First post attempt from the iPad. Oooer!
So, I'm not in the mood to give detailed updates on whatever I promised I would, but it all followed through and went well! Honestly I've been more active on my blog in reality, I started that like a week ago. No one really follows me on that blog either so.. Lol. Anyways I have been sorta kinda working on a dress, I'm picturing a full skirt, a sculpted belty thing, and funky necklines! Woo! that will be muy exciting, who knows when I will finish it.

I also applied to be a merchant at a couple sims, but.. Like my main store isn't even that full of things to buy. So, my satellite stores will be like.. Just as full as my main shop. Which sucks for those people expecting more from the main LM because They won't see any more! Lol. oh wait or I could just do a sample platter. Anyways...

So I've been trying my best to say hi to everyone entering the shop when I'm on the land! It's a lot of fun seeing who comes in, I know it's lame but I find it amusing and considerate. I mean I would love to get a greeting and thanks from the designer if they were there in shop the same time I was!
....

Anyways gunna continue on the mac, I got tired of laying in bed. SO. What was I saying.... Oh yeah, I've been doing that. Also been keeping up the meeroos avec Johnathan, we just caught up a little today which was groovy. I've also been reuniting with Heather and Paul which is nice, we've been doing movie nights together.

I just feel like running or something.

Alrighty that's all, Latarrr.

I did something today!

Incredible, isn't it?

So today I committed myself to creating displays for the gum skirts. Usually a snooze, but nothing that a little Lady Gaga and other various jams can't fix.

I'm quite pleased, by the end of the day everything will be done and ready to go for release day! When's that? When the new shop is done being built.
Wait there's a new shop being built? YEAH!
By one of my lovely friends Jesse Hill who was looking for a project.. so I was like why not/Let's do it! It's still a surprise but I'm sure it'll be super sexy, coming from a sexy guy and all.

Anyways, I know I've fell off the SL planet and have been wandering around in the real one, especially exploring my own city (fun). I haven't but will soon with the whole selling art thing on SL--BUT I'm going to try selling them through people I know so then I make more profit. I still have yet to make prints though, bahahaha. Oh well, no rush.

Also, I went through a super dry spell with SL and I had zero motivation ( I even thought of quitting for a sec, goodness me) but I can sort of feel it coming back especially with the excitement of the 2nd Teen Fashionshow! I dunno what to expect yet but I will keep you guys posted. If you're a teen then you'll see some familiar TG designers like Killie, Yuki, Tallie, Anna (in alt form), and myself. Woo, get pumped! I think the date for that will be coming up soon on the 13th of this month if that plays out as planned.

Groovy, I think that's it.

Bisous, Bisous

HEY GUYS

So, don't worry if I'm not making any releases lately. I think I might slow down with making new clothing because I don't have the motivation right now. BUT. Touché is NOT going anywhere as long as I continue getting all the support from you guys. Aww.

Okay, so what's the deal Karissa?

Mmmmkay. So, although lacking motivation for being artistic through digital clothing on SL, there's no lacking motivation in my art in reality!

 So, here's my plan. I'm going to first get all of my favourites together to make several prints to sell on Etsy.com (Check it out: it's a really cool tool for freelancers and for people interested in buying hand made goodies directly from the artist). Then, hopefully I can get quality digital copies and sell them as art pieces in-world on SL to get the word out (still under the Touché brand I think... Even though I don't have a brand in reality... I wonder if I can do that. Whatever I'll think it through later. Or if anyone knows tell me). So then my art would be available in both the digital world and the real world!

So, don't be bummed that new clothing will be a little bit on a halt for now, everything in shop is still available and I might randomly get inspired to do clothing again which I know I will, I just need a little break.

Just wanted to keep those interested in being in the know updated!

Muah

Meeroos, Don't Hate.

So, lastnight was not only a 4th of July celebration.

 It was also a new beginning and opening of this whole complicated world of Meeroos with my friend Johnathan (HAHAHA). I cannot believe it because I still think they are the most silliest thing invented but who cares, right? Super fun and I feel like a nerd but we're so going all out. I named mine Elton, short for Elton John of course. And Johnathan named his Guillian, awwww.

So yeah, for those of you who don't know what Meeroos are they're like these breedable cat..rabbit..squirrel things that are totally pointless.

You'll prolly now not find me IN the shop being a hermit but now BEHIND the shop being a hermit but I made the back window phantom so I can jump in and out whenever. Haha.

Johnathan and I with Guillian & Elton, disquises are there for.. no reason, I just discovered the editting feature on Tinypic so I couldn't help but try it out. Ha. Oh, and I have a sparkler in my hand because it was the 4th, I'm not trying to make a meeroo roast.

Anyways, All is well. I'm working on some shorts, the skirt is on hold for a little because I'm getting a belt made for it! Hooray. Hopefully that'll be done soon because I'm really pumped for the skirt. But also the shorts. Since I feel like they're pretty legit looking so far. They're really cool because they're redddd and the shading is kinda realisticccc, at least I think so. I'll give you guys a peak later once they're further along or something. Woo!

Woah this took me like an hour to write. My brain must've fallen out or something.

Oh, so tomorrow I plan on going to Claim the Fame again for the finale and I guess we're all being interviewd at 3PM. Prolly gunna make a fool of myself again, you can watch it on Metaverse. I'll have to hold the phone up to my ear so my grandma won't be irked to why I'm talking into the computer. Lol. She is so sweet.

My wrist is sore from playing badminton hardcore yesterday.

M'kay. I think that's all when it comes to exciting news.

See ya!
