Scythe is the New Black

While Ms. Abernathy and Ms. Kirshner are recovering from their most recent interviews with Radar Masukami, Crap Mariner, and Will Pitre, we the doctors of Barney Bendel's Center for Retail Therapy have put together a list of what they call "SLurls" for places that male avatars can shop in Second Life.

Wow!  It's sure a busy time for Paeoti Pomeray.  In addition to opening a whole new sim ( http://slurl.com/secondlife/Isle%20of%20Nymphetamine/167/154/26/ ) and designing some hot new clothes, Miss Paeoti has decided to hold a model search contest!

Why she'd ever decide to let her current curvaceous model-self retire, we'll never know.  But it's a great opportunity for the rest of us!  Go on down to her new main location on the Isle of Nymphetamine for details.  The deadline for entering the contest is May 31, 2007 at 6 p.m. SLT!  If you want more information, go to her store and click on the big sign just inside the door.

So, put on your hottest Nymphetamine's clothes and give it your all.   There are some hot prizes to be won.  And even if you don't win, it's a great reason to purchase some more hot Nymphetamine's fashions!

By the way, Paeoti dropped some goodies on us!  She gave us each a Godiva Deco Dress (check out the picture here) which is one of the hottest designs we've seen in a while.  We can't figure out why she sells it for just $500L in her store!  She also gave us each a beautiful Dark Swan Boat (also selling for a mere $500L in her store). 

Thanks, Pae, and good luck, Ladies!

• visit the store bossa nova with darling clothes by designer Moire Georgette;
• shop for Sanford Foulon's mission style furniture at Gingko;

• announce our very first Avatar of Style!

Our first ever Avatar of Style is TheDiva Rockin!  Cute as a button, witty as hell, and a born shopper, this Extraordinaire model knows to never leave her house without her tiara and sunglasses.  Diva, we salute you!

Sanford Foulon's Gingko house features wonderfully affordable and authentic Mission style furniture.  Visit his store at http://slurl.com/secondlife/pando/161/149/99 !

Maggie Morgan and Kerryn Kennedy's Something Fishy is guaranteed to hook you!  With a wide selection of indoor and outdoor aquatic life, including their trademarked Nature's Smart Fish, Something Fishy has something for everyone.  Visit the store at http://slurl.com/secondlife/kishijoten/57/35/22 !

Well, this is the end of an era.  Tomorrow, the new Isle of Nymphetamine opens for Paeoti Pomeray's Nymphetamine's boutique.  Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about the new sim with a bigger store and some hot new designs!  But I'll miss the store in The Siren's Grotto, so I had to visit one last time.

Anyway, the grand opening of her new sim is tomorrow night, Thursday, May 10 at 7 pm, SLT at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Isle%20of%20Nymphetamine/138/154/24/ .  Check it out!

It's my Rez Date and I suppose I should have something profound to say.  Well I have tried, but I have nothing.  Looking back at the old photos, I do see that I have changed.  I never thought I looked bad, but I can tell I still had that newbie shine not that long ago.  I hope you like seeing the 'Evolution of Daphne'.  Just know that I have no plans on staying the way I am today, I might be blonde today and Drow tomorrow, I haven't decided.

Tamara and I are working on the next show, we hope to have it out over the weekend.  We will be featuring a few over looked gems we have found while shopping.  We always welcome your ideas and comments, the contact information is in the side bar.

Take care and thank you for listening,

Daphne

In Episode 1 of "Going Broke with Daphne and Tamara," we talk with HD and Paeoti Pomeray, the couple behind the SLurgis sim (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Epsilon/42/88/34).  Learn more about the family who inhabits this bikers' paradise and all the wild parties there.

HD, a biker in real life, tells us about his new line of motorcycles that are available in his SLurgis shop (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Epsilon/63/46/34).  While you've always been able to change the color of HD's motorcycles, now you can have your HD bike custom painted before HD puts it together for you.
 

After you've placed your order for that custom bike, ride over to Nymphetamine's, one of the best boutiques in Second Life (http://slurl.com/secondlife/TheSirensGrotto/132/123/24).  Paeoti's designs range from demure (well, not really) and elegant, to full out sex-kitten, but they all share the same attention to detail and curve consciousness that highlight what makes women's bodies special!

 
The SLurl to Nymphetamine's main store in the Siren's Grotto won't be accurate for long!  Paeoti told us that she's building a new sim for her boutique and she hopes to open it shortly.  We can't wait to shop at Pae's newer and bigger store and see even more of her hot designs.

 
Finally, we asked HD and Paeoti a few unusual questions.  Find out about their favorite animation (available at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Apukohai/80/115/71) and learn why we can't provide SLurls to their favorite places in SL!

 
Start saving your Lindens for our next show.  In Episode 2 of Going Broke, we'll introduce you to our first Avatar of Style and tell you about some of the things we've heard and said in SL that would get us locked up in RL, while covering the best of the best of shopping in SL.

 
Thanks for checking us out!  Please email your comments and questions to us at daphne.abernathy@gmail.com and tamara.kirshner@gmail.com, or leave us a voicemail at 206-203-1318.

 
Thanks!
