Halp!

Do not try this at home. Professional reenactment.


So, I log in tonight, figuring I would take some pictures of the new dresses I made. Yay! That was the plan anyway... but... What the heck! Did Betty eat too many Pop Rocks while I was at work?! Taste the explosion alright... I AM the explosion!

I did upload the latest version of the viewer a couple of days ago (I wanted pretty clouds in one of my pictures...) and everything was just peachy... until tonight. How do I make this stop?! Will I die? Will I be scarred for life once I stop popping?!

Needless to say, taking pictures tonight is out of the question. Blast! For once, I had both time and the motivation to work on something happen at the same time! Oh well...

I definitely have to figure out how to fix this because 1) it is way annoying, 2) I don't want to end up having a seizure from all that flashing goin' on on my screen. *twitch* 3) while seeing my friends deformed by this glitch is highly amusing... it is so not funny when it happens to me!

Retrology celebrates its 1st anniversary

Available for free until August 3rd. Yay!

Retrology is turning one on Sunday, August 3rd! To celebrate, participating vendors will have freebies available in their Retrology stores all week long. That's right! Free stuff!

Here is my little contribution! It's brand new, not in stores yet. So it's like...a pre-release... like... for free.

*Petits Pois* party dress in red includes:

1-top
1- pair of glitch pants
2- flexi skirts with black tulle (one with the skirt sitter script and one without)
1- scupltie bow for the waist

Copy/Mod/No Trans. Multiple layer options.

Grab it quick before Sunday. It will be available at regular price after that.

I plan on releasing other colours soon (ie. next time I find some time to package stuff) as well as some other stuff I have laying around my inventory (like the Dentelle and Stardust dresses in "non Relay" colours). My "new releases" wall is looking pretty bare now that all the Relay vendors have poofed.

Good news! A few extra days to get the RFL items!


We can keep our vendors out a bit longer until everything gets deleted on Wednesday. Yay! Let's see if we can't raise a bit more money!

Don't forget, all these Relay for Life items will not be available for purchase after July 22nd.

Also take this opportunity to visit the 30+ Heroes sims and check out the amazing builds all the team created for this year's Relay.

Here is a slurl to my store. You can check out my RFL items there. Make sure you also grab a landmark for the Designers in Seclusion Relay site on the Heroes 9 sim. You will find a ton of exclusive Relay designs by many many talented designers (located inside the while, circular tent). Then, put on your new purchases and go for a stroll around the Relay sims! Yay!

Thank you to everyone who participated and supported Relay this year. This year's teams have raised over 52 million L$ so far and we have a couple of extra days left! *claps*

Thank you to my Designers in Seclusion team mates. You all did an amazing job. *more clapping*

Enough rambling. I need some serious sleep! Get shopping!

These will be available for today and tomorrow only! All the other RFL items will also be gone. So quick, get your shoppin' on guilt free! 100% the proceeds from RFL items go to the ACS. Raise that total y'all!

First up: *Opposites Attract* Summery Cocktail Dress. Offered in black or white, with contrasting lace details. Multiple layer options. Flexi skirt. Available in COPY or TRANSFER versions. Only 250L$ each but by all means, feel free to donate more.



Secondly, we have the Dentelle dresses in monocromatic tones. These colours will only be available this weekend. You have a choice of Silver, Slate or Black. Each dress comes on a variety of layers for the top, and two flexi skirts (one with lace and one with a full, straight prim -no alpha)

The return of the Poodle


Finally! Here they are. After selling them from the trunk of my car for the past few months, I finally got motivated enough to package them and put them in the store! (thanks to Jhuzen Ketsugo from Retrology who keep organizing sim events that force me to finish stuff!)

The occasion this time is a sim wide sidewalk sale for Canada Day/ US Independance Day. Lots of deals on the Retrology sim!

Poodles is back, revamped, refreshed, and now in more vibrant colours.

Just like last year's version, it comes with a fun, flexi Poodle skirt complete with white tulle under the skirt, a short sleeved polo with matching poodle detail, glitch shorts for sock hopping "sans flashing" , matching neck scarf and white ankle socks.

COPY/MOD/NO TRANS






Available at Total Betty's main store in Plush Rho and at the Retrology location.

Relay for Life: Halfway Fair! June 1st!

Quick snapshot of the Designers in Seclusion Fair Grounds

The Relay for Life in SL fundraising campaign has already reached its halfway point! And you know what that means... the Halfway Fair is BACKkkk! Yeahhhhh! It starts at 6am SLT on Sunday June 1st and goes on until evening.

SIX sims, a billion teams (rounded off to the nearest billion for convenience), a ton of activities, exclusive RFL items for sale (all to raise funds for the American Cancer Society), lots of dancing, singing, kissing... ohhhhh my! It is a day you do not want to miss!

Drop by the Designers in Seclusion High School on the HalfwayThere 3 sim. Various basic designing classes will be offered throughout the day. If classes make you ill, don't fret! We also have plenty of exclusive relay items for sale on the school grounds, from gorgeous hairstyles to sexy jewelery and hot fashions! 100% of the proceeds from the sales go to Relay for Life. Yay! So, drop buy, learn something new, buy something pretty or just come hang out on the school grounds! I'll be the one sneaking a cig in the bushes. *shhhhhhhhh*

Clicky here for the slurl >> Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

******Detention sucks...

Speaking of school... Maybe pretending to be back in HS is not your cup o' tea but what if we skipped the school part and went straight to the prom? Relive the best moments of HS at the Designers in Seclusion prom on June 14th-15th. It's the perfect chance to do it all again and make things right.

-Didn't like your date at your HS prom? Forget about that loser and make new memories with your charming and sexy SL date!

-Your mom would only buy you that horrible polyester puke green "gown" that was 50% off? Bleach those memories away and deck yourself with the hottest, latest fashions at a fraction of what a RL gown would've cost! You will be the queen of the ball darlin'!

-You were blessed with two left feet and no one would dance with you? Now is your time to shine! Move over Dancing with the Stars... we got dance balls and we know how to use them! 10/10 guaranteed, every time.

Buy your tickets at the Fair or at the Relay for Life store on Callatropia. Pick your day (Saturday or Sunday... or both! why not?! twice the fun!), buy yourself a sexy dress, get someone to agree to be your date and you are set! I'll even spike the orange punch if you promise not to tell!

100% of the tickets sales go to benefit Relay for Life. Hope to see you there!



****

Oh and yeah! I'm alive, just busy as hell! Don't ever get sick and then go on vacation...cause work just piles up while you're away and it takes forever to catch up! I have a lot of new stuffs, I just need to find the time for the %$!!&*$ packaging part. I do check my messages regularly and sneak into SL to take care of things, so if you tried contacting me and I haven't replied, try again because that means I didn't get/see the message. Thanks! I'll be at the fair for a large part of the day so do stop by and say hello!

Betty :)

Tata for now!

Please note that I will be away for a couple of weeks! Technically, I coming back around the 22nd, but seeing that I have just spent the week from hell with the flu, I might take a couple of extra rest days and switch the dates around a little to come back a little later like the 28th or around there. I don't want my snot to ooze through my eyes in the plane or something equally gross. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! I have heard too many horror stories from people in the past few days about traveling when sick. I do not wish to check the facts for myself!

I had planned a bunch of releases but my body betrayed me for the first time in like forever and gave me a serious beating. *wheeze* *cough* Sooo, it will all have to wait until my return.

If you need to leave me a message, send me a notecard with all the relevant information and I will reply as soon as I get back. Check my picks for more information.

Thanks! Back soon, hopefully cough free and fully refreshed!

Betty
