Checking in at Simone!
By Celebrity Trollop | August 17, 2006
It’s been a while since I saw new items from Simone Stern, so I decided I’d go find out what’s new — and there’s been a couple of new releases in just the past few days. The first new release is actually a large set of mix-n-match separates — tops by Simone and the bottoms by ShyOne Lehane. I really liked the way this strawberry pink embroidered cami and brown cords matched together, but if brown and hot pink aren’t your thing, there were at least 25 different options for the top, and 25 different pant choices — everything from hip hugging leather to cords to denim. The vendor set up was kind of cool too — you could click the top of the vendor, and it would leave the bottoms unchanged, and cycle through your choices of tops. When you had a whole outfit put together just so, you could pay the top portion of the vendor and buy the top, and then pay the bottom portion of the vendor and get your selected pants. It was a very clever shopping experience. Each top and pants cost L$125, pricing an entire outfit L$250.
The second release was a set of lacy babydolls named Kayleigh in 5 different colors. Simone does fantastic work with lace panels and these dresses do not disappoint. I didn’t have time to photograph them so you’ll just have to pop over to take a look at them — I really thought they were cute.
Speaking of shopping experiences, Simone has completely rebuilt her store. Before it was a multi-level shopping environment, and now she’s flattened things out, organized outfits by department (like “bridal” or “casual”) and sprinkled some teleporter signs around the sim to help you get where you want to go browse next. Have a look around yourself on Simone island.
