Today’s release is for men but as usual it looks plenty pretty on the ladies too. The Shay Contrast Stripe Shirt comes in 10 colour combinations for L$140 each (with one exception – see below) and all 10 for L$950.
The Finch&Tall Poppy version of the shirt hangs with its fellows but is completely free. My gift to say thank-you to those patient gents who have waited so long for a proper new menswear release. I haven’t provided a demo for this shirt because you can try it out with this freebie.
We’ve been getting a few requests for the Boyd Dress Trousers to be available in fallow, well here they are – with 3 other pale colours, too. They can be found next to the previous colours of the trousers in the mens area.
I know that we promised a release for blokes but we will make up for the lack of menswear in this release very soon. We’ll also be getting back into a regular release schedule, sorry for such a long absence.
Today’s release includes the Lizzy Cropped Boatneck, this top is just a simple cropped top from the front but the back sits partially open – held together with bows and decorated with white lace. The top comes in 8 colours, as do the Georgie Tapered Trousers. These cropped pants sit high and tailored on the waist with a looser fit through the legs. Finally, the Tea Hawks Vest is a long, open sleeveless jacket. The buttons are black and the vest itself comes in 6 colours.
The jewelry released at the Jewelry Fair is also now available in the store, be sure to come in and check out the Whippet & Buck Accessory Wall.
This Friday’s item is a preview of a soon-to-be-released vest that has been in the works for way too long. It’s ready now so enjoy this purple and black number for just 50L and look forward to the full release next week.
I know we’ve been dragging our feet on the new release for a while now but I promise that it’s coming. In the mean time – Whippet & Buck has a little booth at Jewelry Fair 2009! I jumped at the opportunity as soon as I heard about it, I want W&B to start providing more accessories and the fair’s charity of choice – Oxfam – happens to be one that I feel passionately about. I applaud the organizers for choosing an international charity organization and I hope to see more SL groups embracing this. Second Life is a global community – it’s one of the best things about it.
On with the products: I’ve only got two items (in various colours) in the booth. One is the Rae Bird Brooch (seen above), it’s available in 4 colours and 50% of the profits from the green and gold brooch go to Oxfam. The other piece is a simple long necklace with a lazer-cut style pendant. You can choose either a whippet or a buck pendant and both options come in gold, silver or black. The necklace is named Peggy for my dearly departed whippet X who went to sleep for the last time this year at 17 and a half.
I don’t usually participate in blogger challenges but this one has particular appeal for me. If you’ve been around for a while you might remember that I use to wear a plus sized shape as my norm. These days my regular Dakota shape is much more svelte but it was a lot of fun to dress curves again for this challenge.
Outfit Deets:
Skin: CHAI NOVA +Freckled Tone 03+ [Horizon B] (CHAI by Launa Fauna)

I know there’s been a slacking off of Whippet & Buck releases lately but we hope to rectify that soon. In the meantime: 3 pairs of frilly underpants for 50L as part of the wonderful 50L Friday initiative. SLURL!
Every Friday, a group of designers will place an item in the front of their mainstore marked down for 50L. The item might be something from the store marked down, or maybe an exclusive, special item.
Each week the designers and items will rotate. The items will be available from 12am SLT on Friday until 11:59pm SLT on Friday. You can get the items by following the LMs in this note.
Sorry about the long absence! ‘Kota and I have both been pretty sick (her fault). There’s a larger release almost ready but in the mean time we wanted to give you some new colours for the frock we made for RFL (purchasing these dresses DOES NOT donate to the cause, the original colour no longer does either). Head straight down to the end of the store to buy these in the Latest Arrivals section; there are eight different colour combos.
You’ll also notice that there is a DEMO option for this dress. Eventually, demos will be implemented for the older items as well. From now on ALL Whippet & Buck items will be released with a demonstration version available.
I’ve just finished installing (much requested) fatpacks above all the racks in the mainstore. They’re the little black boxes. The discounts are minimal because I’d like to encourage everyone to head down to the back of the store and grab a store card. The discount percentage increases the larger card you buy.
