Bound to be Relaxing!

 Hello!

This is feeling dangerously like I might be getting back into something like a regular release cycle, but please don't hold your breath or be surprised if it isn't! 

Yes! There is another new release, and this time it's a chair. A great big comfy chair to really spread out and relax in. 

***SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY OFFER***

And, in traditional style, you can have it for HALF of the retail price for the first 24 hours ONLY. Only in-world. You go to the store, buy the chair and get half of your money refunded immediately. 

***SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY OFFER***

The Bound Chair is a reflection of my eternal search for a genuinely huge, comfortable chair that I can curl up in like that girl in the Lemsip Adverts. Just me? Oh well. I'm taller than most folks in real life and that means that normal sized furniture is frequently uncomfortable for me, so my preference in Second Life is for furniture that gives me room to stretch out. 


I like things to be a little stylish too, and I'm a huge fan of piping and such to provide nice neat edges and contrast. Add into that my love for antique maps and you have what became the Bound Chair.

Made with use in public spaces in mind, this chair keeps it clean, with nothing beyond a nice cuddle or a gentle tease to see. Ideal for the social areas of a femdom sim where people want to express their relationships without upsetting anyone.


You can copy and modify the chair itself but the scripts and animations are copy only, so your chair will appear "no modify" in your inventory. 10LI at the provided size - resizing is possible but be aware that the Land Impact may well increase if you do, and the animations will need to be adjusted to fit the new size.

As for how the thing looks, I love options, and I love to mix things up! So, just about every part of the chair can be textured individually, as follows:

Belts - Black, Russet or White 

Piping - Black, Russet or White

Body of the chair - Black, Natural, Olive, Russet, Scotland Map, White or World Map

Seat of the chair - Black, Natural, Olive, Russet, Scotland Map, White or World Map


My shaky grasp of mathematics tells me that gives you 441 ways to mix it up... that ought to be enough? If not, turn the whole thing white and go crazy with the edit menu and tinting. Just make a copy first, so that if you mess it up, you can just rezz out a new one!

The chair contains 4 menus.

Just Anyone: 11 Solo animations that should suit any avatar.

Just Miss: 11 Solo animations that will suit the discerning lady who cares about dignity.

Miss & Sub: 13 couple animations that let Miss remind her sub exactly who is in charge.

Snuggles: 11 couple animations along much more romantic lines, for those tender moments.

The solo menus contain a few animations that need props (for example a coffee mug or a book). These will be attached to your avatar (look out for the permissions request) and detached again when you change pose. It makes use of the AVSitter experience, which means that if it's activated on the land, and your avatar has provided permission to the AVSitter experience, all of the attachment stuff will just happen automatically - no muss, no fuss, just relax and enjoy.

I often find that if animation menus get too big, I lose all track of what is where, or what any of it means, and wind up using the 5 that I can remember. This is why I tend to keep menus small and manageable. I believe life should be easy.

Another fabulous feature of the AVSitter system is the ability to easily adjust poses for a perfect fit. When you're happy with the adjusted position, just hit save and the chair will remember your personal setting the next time you sit. Up to 40 avatars' settings can be stored in the chair.

I think that's all the important stuff about this chair, I do hope you enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed making it.

Price: 600L$ for a chair with lots and lots of options

You can test out the chair at the Studio, of course, and buy it there, or you can head over to Marketplace to grab your copy. Remember, for the next 24 hours, you can get it half price, ONLY in-world!

So there you have it, a great big comfy chair for a lady who loves travel, and who likes playing with options. I do hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it.

I do hope all your lives are treating you well,

Bright Blessings

Eve :)

If I Were a Rich Girl...

 ... I would probably spend all my money very quickly! 

*** READ ON FOR A SPECIAL OFFER FOR 24 HOURS ONLY, ONLY IN-WORLD ***

Hello! I have another new release for you lovely people. As you know, I often make things as a result of frustrations with what is readily available... 

This time, I wanted to wear something that nodded to the vintage style of the 40s and early 50s but didn't DEMAND that I go the whole hog and add victory rolls. Something that looked sexy but not too 'try hard'. I think Gwen Stefani has amazing style and no matter what she wears she looks as groomed as a golden-age pinup, but as fresh and edgy as anyone today. So, the dress had to bear her name, because I think she would absolutely rock this one!

The usual agonies were had over texture options, but it did give me a chance to play with a new fabric design I had, so of course we end up with far more textures than are needed, and with strict and ruthless whittling down, I got it to only 16! I love options, and I love to mix it up, so naturally, I made it so that the top, belt and skirt are all individually changeable via the HUD... scary maths give us the answer of over 4000 possible combinations!

Available in Maitreya, Slink Hourglass and Slink Physique sizes.



Materials enabled for a gentle sheen as the light passes over you. If you're feeling adventurous, do have a play with the tint on the specular layer via the edit menu and see if you can find a colour that delights your soul. But do make sure you are working on a copy so that if you mess up, it's all okay. 

One tiny word of warning - I left the dress modifiable so that you can play with tints. That's great, BUT ... if you change the description of the object, then the HUD will no longer work, so just be careful please :)



Price: 600L$ for a 'fatpack' with 4000 texture options 

***FOR 24 HOURS, IN-STORE ONLY, YOU WILL HAVE HALF OF THE PURCHASE PRICE REFUNDED TO YOU IMMEDIATELY***

If you'd rather pay full price, you can also grab it from Marketplace. But going to the Studio is the better option if you want to save 50% in the next 24 hours!

So there you have it, a retro yet contemporary dress which I hope you agree is versatile and comfortable in almost any setting!

I hope all your lives are treating you well,

Bright Blessings

Eve :)
