this is an unreleased outfit (i will release it after Christmas, i hope) and its also my way to say THANK YOU to the effective members of MG fashion update group! as i dont want this outfit to be a freebie, i closed MG fashion update group membership for 30 days. hope you all understand. thank you!
i named it MG fashion FACTORY, not only because of the building and decor style but also because it will be the "distribution" point! lol i mean, all new releases will only be available firstly in the main store! the new main store is located at Mystikal sim, that belongs to my dear friend Mystikal Faddoul, the Mystikal Hair designer.
to celebrate the opening of the new main store, i made some new stuff!
wool capelets, that i love! wool capelets include the capelet in all layers, arm prims and capelet prim (prims are mod). fat pack is 20% off.
hand knitted jackets in lots of colours, available in all layers. also, i made 2 fat packs: dark colours (30% off) and light colours (20% off).
and finally, a new outfit from The Silk Collection, Jupiter Crash, in charcoal, brick, deep red, petroleum and plum.
it was an awesome show! i want to thank to all faces team and to all models – a brilliant and very professional event. i stole some pics from the glam world's flickr photo program (mine are terrible because i crashed and, when I came back, all people were dwarfs! lol).
i have been informed about a problem with my sequin skirts, from the London Calling Separates Collection. in fact, the problem was that i forgot to set the texture in the inner part of the prim. i’m very sorry about this mistake. i have already fixed all the skirts. if you bought one of these skirts, please send me a note with the transaction info and i will send you the fixed prim (please do not use IM). thanks and sorry once again.
ps. dont forget to include information about the colour(s) you bought!
for god sake, latelly i’m behaving like a fish – memory of 3 seconds only! arghhhh
i’ve been tagged by Ana Lu and Annah Whitfield! i’m gonna kill you girls! i really hate these things. oh well
the rules are: 1. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves. 2. People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules. 3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names. 4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.
My random facts/habits:
1. i’m a big fan of Quentin Tarantino, Tim Burton and David Lynch.
2. my favourite writer is Gabriel García Márquez.
3. i love painting, drawing and illustration in general but I DO LOVE children illustration!
4. i love to eat! it’s one of my favourite pleasures. not just proper meals but also those little things that we can eat while we drink a beer – “pestiscos” in Portuguese! in Portugal, we do have this “petiscos” culture, with all sort of delicious things – nhami!
5. uhm, my sister uses to say that we are good candidates to “serial killers” – we hate people! lol specially, people in traffic. grrrrrrrr
6. i love dogs! since i moved to a place of mine, i had two, both found abandoned in the street. in Portugal, unfortunately, animals abandon percentage’s are very high, growing every hear in the vacation’s period. it breaks my heart :(
7. i hate cauliflower. arghhhhh
8. when I was a child, i was completely crazy about “wonder women”. so, I used to play pretending i was her. one day, i climbed to a wall and jumped and it was supposed my cousin to get me, but… ok, i have broken my harm! loool it was the first and last time (till now!) that i’ve broken a bone!
and i will not follow the rules because i will not tag anyone!
some more of London Collection. sequin skirts! glitch pants available in both pants and underpants layers.
jeans! love jeans! love colourful jeans! lots of jeans! lol low rise and straight legs. also available in pants and underpants layers.
finally (and i leave these for last by purpose!): JACKETS! this particular style of jacket is called “Canadiana” in Portuguese. i made them with several prims possibilities. you can use it with or without the hood, with or without the cuffs, with or without the prim buttons (etc) and a non prim version is included (all details in texture). i made smaller sets than usual but separates are also available.
all items are copy, no transfer and no modify (except for the prims, that are modifiable). fat packs have great discounts (30% or 20%, depending on the pack size). by now, they are only available at Portucalis and Cotton Candy stores.
yes, a new collection! this time, a separates collection. colourful and trendy. the name has a story: i putted together an outfit (a crazy and trendy one) and one of the vinil jackets was part of it. Ana Lu saw me and said: “the all thing that you’re wearing reminds me one song, London Calling from The Clash”. and… pluft… the name was born!
all possible layers included. fat packs are 30% off.
thanks Ana! greatttt name! (and great song!)
THE CLASH - "London Calling"
London calling to the faraway towns Now war is declared, and battle come down London calling to the underworld Come out of the cupboard, you boys and girls London calling, now don't look to us Phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust London calling, see we ain't got no swing 'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing
[Chorus 1:] The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin Engines stop running, but I have no fear 'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river
London calling to the imitation zone Forget it, brother, you can go it alone London calling to the zombies of death Quit holding out, and draw another breath London calling, and I don't wanna shout But while we were talking, I saw you nodding out London calling, see we ain't got no high Except for that one with the yellowy eyes
[Chorus 2: x2] The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin A nuclear error, but I have no fear 'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river
Now get this
London calling, yes, I was there, too An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true! London calling at the top of the dial After all this, won't you give me a smile? London calling
I never felt so much alike [fading] alike alike alike

Outono outfits include sweaters in three different colors (jacket, shirt and undershirt+underpants layers), socks in 3 different colors (matching the sweaters), skirt pants (pants and underpants layers)and prim skirt. i also made available two separate Outono outfit sweaters, in basic colors (charcoal and grey), that came in all possible layers.
oh well, today I found out I made a mistake. i spent part of my morning setting up my OnRez account, preparing the boxes, filling in forms, setting up prices. but, at the same time, i was doing all kind of stuff, RL and SL. by the end of the afternoon, i received an IM from Chelsea Ivory, warning me that my new Heart button skirts fat pack was marked zero lindens on OnRez. OMG! this was exactly how I reacted! lol
(no, she did not buy the fat pack, but some (many) other people did)
why am i writing this? not for complaining or anything – i know it was all my fault. i just want to give a big and public thank you to Chelsea, so… THANK YOU CHELSEA!
and speaking of nice and kind people, i have to tell you this: i meat Sayuri Cremorne! Sayuri is sugarcube owner and she is just lovely! I meat her at Cotton Candy, where we both have a new store! i found out that Sayuri is a very good pose maker – her poses are great! i felt inlove and just couldn’t stop trying them! loool Sayuri, hope we can see each other soon! very very nice to meet you!
no, i’ve not finished yet! there’s someone else i have to speak of: my dearest friend Gwyneth Llewelyn! to Gwyn I have to thank for many things, as she always helped me in so many ways. thank you, thank you, thank you! the most recent present i received from Gwyn was… a store!!!! the most cozy and cute store in a charm city on the top of the mountains – Neufreistadt! THANK YOU!!!!!
finally! the first fall/winter collection release!
in the "new stuff" walls you will find "Silver Lake at Midnight", the first outfit from "The Silk Collection", along with Crocheted shrugs in tons of colors (as usual! lol).
yes, discounts season is about to end. the "discount items" walls will be cleaned up tomorrow, at 12:00pm SLT. pass by till then if you want to catch some good price opportunities! some of the items will be retired and others will return to the original prices.

a sneak a peak at the first outfit of "The Silk Collection"!
an outfit that will allow a great number of possibilities: pantsuit, vest, low rise shorts, high waisted shorts, tube top, sculpted legs in different lengths... oh my! and all pieces came in all possible layers to fulfill all your needs! available very very soon!
i was informed MG fashion has been nominated for the Fashion Bloggers' Choice Awards (an awesome idea by Tanya Book – read more about it here) in two categories:
best casual clothing
most congenial/pleasant to deal with designer
it’s very good to know people like us because of what we do, but it’s even better to know people like us because of what we are! i’m… honored!
the first one is that i was invited by Mystikal Faddoul, the Mystical hair designer, to be one of the featured designers in her new, big, and beautiful store! Mystikal, thank you so much! not only for the invitation, but also for being such a nice and generous person!
well, you will not find discount items there, but you will find… and here comes the second announcement… two sculpted French style berets, a gift for group members!
no, they are not perfect - they're just my first experience with a different 3D modelation software and yes, i know i have to improve my skills! but i kind like them! the berets are modifiable, so you can adjust them to your head and hair style (they go better with no fringes straight hair).
so, go and grab them (don’t forget to use the group tag)!
