This weeks update is for the ladies. Lass. A flirty little argyle skirt with a low cut grey top with half sleeves. Argyle leggings add additional interest while the maroon micro tie gives it a fun little dash.
And this week is the changing of the dollarbie items for the ladies.

Seperates

I noticed that lately I've been putting out mostly complete outfits. While there is nothing wrong with that, one of my design goals was to make it easier for the customers to mix and match for their own personal look. With that in mind I'll be dedicating more of my time and resources to seperates vendors and kicking it off with these new items.
For the men this week we have new Khaki Shorts
And by request I have added navy and white to the Threads button Ts line.

Up this week...

...is an update mostly for the ladies.

Besides finishing adding my ladies wear to the new store, I had time to put the finishing touches to my new skirt set Coacoa. The flexi skirt is in circular shades and patterns of brown with just the right amount of bounce. The undershirt is of a brown pattern, cut short to show the midrift. Capping it off is a rich brown vest open towards the front with sculpted sleeves. Unders and brown leggings complete the outfit. The tops come on multiple layers so you can mix and match with other outfits for the look that is "you'.Also, I'll be changing my dollarbie items every couple of weeks including this one. So if you missed last weeks dollarbies I'm sorry but we have great new items this week for both men and women. Here's a sneak peak.

Hot off the presses...

...or at least Photoshop. I've added a couple of new items to keep you feeling, and looking cool in the SL heat.

First up is Threads, a snazzy new line of button T's with flair. Comfy yet sporty, goes perfect with a pair of jeans or khakis when a plain T just won't do. Comes in tucked and untucked versions and, initially in 5 colors.
Next up are my new silk boxers. While I really designed them for men, my partner in crime Kat got hold of some. She promptly IM'ed some of her friends and had an impromptu pajama party right then and there. So I guess they work as unisex, who knew?

Comes in 7 sexy colors plus the big kiss.

Now I went and done it...

Welcome to the very first post for my blog, and store, common thread. It's a little intimidating to be perfectly honest. I mean who am I? Well I do have a few things going for me. I've been "rezzed" in Second Life since '05 and been designing cloths on and off for 2 of them So I do have some experience especially in the mom and pop, street level fashion scene. But something inside me wanted more, to take that next step up the ladder. To push the boundaries and see how far my talent and hard work can take me.

Deciding on a name was an interesting experience. Together with Kat my partner in crime, soul mate and all around sex kitten we brainstormed. We tried different ideas and it wasn't really working. Finally she asked "Well what do enjoy making or wearing?" It caught me a little off guard but I thought about it a few seconds and said "Let's see, those jeans I was wearing at Axle's bachelor party...the bandanna top I made you for cowboy night at Raging Waters..." and then it hit me. All the cloths that came to mind all had a common thread running through them. They were all casual enough for everyday, well made, yet still stylish enough to wear out. And something else occured to me. All of the clothing I remembered, that stuck out to me in a way, did so because of a memory in my life it jogged. With the clothing not as the star, but as part of the story, MY story. From there the style, the theme, the name..."common thread"...came easily. We really do want our clothing to become a part of your story.
