Obviously, i've been busy!

For anyone who still occasionally checks this blog, just wanted to let everyone know that this has been a crazy busy summer, and with 17 credit hours this fall, piano and voice lessons, and training for a 5k...it will be getting crazier! So, while i will be keeping this blog up (just in case), i'm effectively closing Kitchy until further notice. I will be taking the items off of SLExchange and OnRez soon, so if there's anything you've ever wanted to purchase, please go nuts! ;)

I do occasionally get on SL...maybe once every week...feel free to say hello, but don't be surprised if it takes a week or so to get back to you! Thanks everyone for all your support!

Suspending the biz....

As it always seems to do, RL has killed my creativity and my time (when i do feel creative). I've created things here and there, but one of the things that is stopping me from putting them out for you fine people is the time it takes to create vendors, set everything out, texture everything, send out notices...oye! Either way, i know that i will not be finding the time or motivation to do that stuff anytime soon, so i am instead, finding a compromise. Since i have everything on OnRez and SLExchange, and it is a good medium anyways, i am getting rid of my in-world physical store (though i will be on occasionally so feel free to IM) and only keeping things available on those two websites. I may occasionally have a new release, and will still try to get some fun free things out to my loyal subscribers. So i will be keeping the update group, and i will find some small location in world so that others may subscribe if they wish. Hopefully someday i will be able to return completely with a massive store that takes hours to rez cause there's just so much stuff available. ;) Until then, here are my locations on OnRez and SLExchange:

Also, the store will remain up for a couple more weeks, so feel free to stop by and admire the surroundings. :)

I now have a kiosk in front of the store that when touched, will subscribe you to the new update group, then you will get an inventory offer whenever there are new releases! Group members still get monthly exclusive gifts, only now they will come directly to you! Come on over to the store and subscribe today!

Now, on to the new releases!!

This newest release will keep you nice and toasty! Maria includes a striped sweater dress, semi opaque tights, and sculptie legwarmers in two colors (one charcoal and one that matches the dress). The top part of the dress also comes in many layers, so you can mix and match with other outfits. Sexy and with a slightly retro vibe, you'll be warm and stylish!



And if you're a little unhealthily obsessed with legwarmers (like i am!) there are many other different colors available, including rainbow! Squeee!



Oh, and they look awesome with heels too!

For fun

I have a love of landscaping in SL (perhaps because there is no dirt and bugs involved...) and i wanted a little rowboat for a pond i created. Alas, i am quite picky about quality and had trouble finding one for sale that met my needs. Sooo, i decided to try my hand at building one. I am quite happy with the result, and since i had such trouble finding a rowboat in the first place, i decided to put it up for sale. You can find it on SLX or OnRez for 300L at the following URLs:

Some Changes!

KITCHY/UOMO is now Kitchy Boutique! Same sim, slightly different front entrance, here is the new SLurl:

http://slurl.com/secondlife/Beryllium/127/244/23

School has - unfortunately - taken over my life once again, and instead of making all you fashion crazed maniacs (and i mean that in the nicest possible way, lol) out there suffer, i have decided to consolidate and simplify! I have drastically reduced my inventory, and will have less frequent releases for the time being. The new store is stylish and smaller, i think you'll find it easier to navigate your way around. :) 10% off for group members is still active...that being said..i have 2 new releases, one each for guys and girls!

Ladies, a solution for your preppy side! This new outfit is aptly named Prep, and comes with a plaid jacket, undertank, black jeans, and prim cuffs!


Men, a new release a bit apart from the norm. Shabby has a frilled tuxedo styled dress shirt and plaid pants! You definitely can't hide in this outfit! ;)


Also, looking for a nice place to live? Have a homeless friend that you want to get out of your house? Come check out Kitchy Rentals! Currently there are 4 lovely rental homes available, behind the shop, but privacy screened so you won't even know the rest of the world exists! Only 350L for 200 prims! Come check it out!

50% OFF SALE!

Some changes are coming to KITCHY/UOMO, and i'm clearing out ALOT of inventory! Anything that's currently left in the store is 50% off! After this sale, these items will be gone forever! Sale is for an undetermined amount of time, so get em while you can.

KITCHY New Releases!

A couple of fun things for the ladies!

Argyle:
A sexy outfit that will be perfect for you whether you are hanging on to winter, or looking forward to spring! This outfit includes a belly bearing sweater with an argyle print (hence my incredibly creative name) and black or white jeans with a matching argyle printed belt! It comes in *7* colors (yes..i had fun)...four colors are pastel-ly with white jeans, and 3 colors are deep colors with black jeans.



Comfy:
...Is just that...comfy! An incredibly soft and sexy cardigan in 6 different colors. It's on the jacket layer to wear over your outfit on those chilly (and downright cold!) evenings, or wear it alone to sex it up!



I now have poses up for sale in the store! Directly to your right after you enter is a pose vendor, currently I have 5 modeling poses in the vendor, but more will be coming soon! Check em out! (poses are not included in 10% Update Group discount)



A few reminders...I'm still collecting the weekly skin giveaway entries until wednesday...I won't be doing this giveaway forever, so enter for a chance to win!
Also, Update Group members ALWAYS get 10% off new releases while they are on the new board, so come get it before it goes regular price!
**YOU MUST WEAR YOUR GROUP TAG TO GET 10% OFF!!!**

More News :)

All prim skirts now have SKIRTFLOW! available for purchase! (except for empire waist/babydoll styles, since they just don't fall right) If you have previously purchased a skirt without SKIRTFLOW!, send me a NOTECARD with the outfit name and color choice and i will send a skirt your way! (here are the names of the outfits with skirtflow in them..if you don't see the name of the outfit, then it doesn't have SKIRTFLOW!: Brocade, Clubbin, Curves, Elegance, Holiday, Party, Play, Ribbon, Slinky, Tuxedo, Zesty)

Also, all new releases are now 10% off for Update Group members! These items will be 10% off for as long as they stay on the new items board, there is no set time...it depends on how quickly i get releases out in a given week. :)
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS:

You MUST wear you group tag to get the 10% off. Click the vendor of your choice to purchase, and pay the FULL PRICE given. You will then recieve a folder with your items, and will be refunded 10% of the purchase price! If the store is laggy, it may take time to recieve your refund.
Please IM Kitridge DeSantis with any problems.
