Dahlinks on Parade!!!

It's that time of year again folks!! In two weeks...FAT TUESDAY will be upon us and you know what that means...BOOBIES!!  Juuuuuuuuuuuuust kidding. LOL

Introducing the newest addition to the Rio Showgirl Line: The Mardi Gras.  What is Mardi Gras you ask?  Well it's this giant celebration that takes place down in New Orleans every year.  A lot of marching bands, floats, boob flashing and the infamous king cake, moon pies and Mardi Gras beads have become a staple to the time-honored tradition.  But if you want a straight history, click here or here (I like this short but concise version myself).  Over 200 hand placed prims make this crafted piece of awesome. With modesty patches in the same color as our ever vibrant purple, green and gold feathers ... you are sure to be the center of attention at any function.  But the pretty doesn't stop there!  Our jeweled demi bra, headdress, collar, girdle and bracers are all accented with champagne diamonds as well as bejeweled centerpieces in the same color as our lovely feathers. Priced at L$1500, this gorgeous costume is well worth its weight in linden.

Also available in the Carnivale set (blue and white), Flambe set (red and black), both of which are available in our new releases section along with the Mardi Gras and our original three sets: Birds of Paradise, Phoenix Black and Diamonds available across the hall.

You can buy these for yourself or as a gift right inworld, so be sure to swing by Dahlinks ... today! Time to run kids...there's moon pie to be had *wiggles eyebrows*

Love Is In the Air...at Dahlinks

So this is how it works...

Avi 1 meets Avi 2.  They flirt, converse, friend each other and one day somewhere much further down the line, they go out.  This continues for a while.  Then one day Avi 1 feels a bit bold and hops a poseball giving Avi 2 one hell of a smooch.  And that's when love blossoms for these two Avis.  From that point on...they're inseparable.  Then V-Day hits (if we're lucky :D). Avi 2 runs around like an avi with their head cut off trying to figure out what to get their sweety for Valentine's Day.  THAT, my friends, is where Dahlinks comes in...

My Sweetheart is the latest collection of jewelry to come out of the Dahlinks camp. A crystalized heart is the centerpiece of each piece of this fabulous item, surrounded by mesh with a gleaming silver lining.  Our pendant is wrapped up tight in black cord giving this delightful item a bit of a more homemade feel.

Available in Ruby, Rainbow Crystal (above), Pink Diamond, Purple Sapphire and Pink Tourmaline (see pic 1), this awesome set is now available in both our new releases section and our Valentine's Day Corridor for immediate purchase for yourself or .. click "buy as gift" for the special someone in your life.

Love is indeed in the air, dahlinks...and we are spreading the love and joy .. with you ;)  So swing on by and pick up your set...today!

Dahlinks Wants to Ring Your ...

I know we're only halfway through the first month of our new year, but love is in the air...or just a very strong liking.  So much so that we want to take the time to show you a couple of pieces...rings to be exact, that you can surprise your person with this Valentine's Day...or just because.

If you're in that, "this is the one" mode, then the Mermaid Bride Engagement Ring series is a PERFECT gift for her.  Metals varying between platinum and gold, each ring is a gorgeous pearl surrounded by 6 diamonds; sure to bring on the tears...and subsequent faint when you get down on one knee and ask "will you...?" Coming in your choice of: Traditional pearl, Amethyst pearl, Tahitian pearl  and Black pearl, this ring is a definite must have.  Unlike most Dahlinks jewelry, these rings are transferable. So feel free to stop in or head on over to xstreetsl.com (look up Alexandra Nichols) and pick up the perfect pearl for your girl...

And while you're Xstreetsl.com, feel free to nab a couple of the men's rings for yourself as well!

The Power Player is a very eye-catching piece for any man to wear on their finger.  And at L$300 this handsome dress ring is well worth the investment in your person. :)

Well dahlinks...I am off to sleep for a change!

Tag!!! Dahlinks is IT!

I have always had an affinity for dog tags.  I'm not really sure why. Perhaps it is the ability to make your mark without necessarily covering yourself in makers of  'here I am!!'  But a dog tag...it just says plain who you are.  But at Dahlinks...we not only give you a tag...there will always be a flair ;)

 

 

These are just a few of the dog tags available for purchase at Dahlinks or on Xstreetsl.com (look up Alexandra Nichols).  All available for L$125 per dog tag, the lettering is very distinct, with diamonds accenting the edges.  Just enough glitter to turn heads without that "land a 747" bling effect that can sometimes render an avi blind ;0)

Pick them up for yourself or head over to the exchange to pick up a gift for your friends! I prefer the "Sista" one personally *wink*.

See y'all really soon!

Dahlinks Presents: Hope, Faith and Charity

The Hope, Faith and Charity necklace is an item that comes from deep within the halls of Dahlinks. 

Available in silver, antique gold, copper, gun metal and rose gold, this simple, yet stunning piece of jewelry is at its very least the perfect compliment to any top, vest or even...turtleneck.

It is also a reminder (well at least for me) of three of the strongest virtues we can have as a people, especially in present times when natural disasters wreak havoc unexpectedly. 

I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I do and our hearts go out to the families and friends of those effected by the most recent events in Haiti.

Dahlinks Presents: The Morrighan Revisited...

If I gave you diamonds & pearls

Would you be a happy boy or a girl

If I could I would give you the world

But all I can do

Is just offer you...

~ Prince, "Diamonds & Pearls"

Dahlinks: The Morrighan (set priced at L$350) is a set of diamond and pearl magnificence that only pale in comparison to the beauty of its wearer. Each pearl and diamond hand-placed, this set caresses your neck like a mother protecting its young, with a very detailed diamond accent to each teir of the piece.

Shown here, the earring set (available separately for $150L) offers that touch of elegance one so often longs to find in a set such as this, without the often-found 747-effect that bling jewelry tends to offer.

The bracelets (also available separately at L$200) are avail for each wrist, so no need to duplicate your items for the sake of wearing one on each arm. Just open the box and voila...all done *smiles*

And finally, the pearl choker (available separately for L$200).  A classic and often overlooked piece in the vein that we forget that it can dress up the most drab of outfits or mellow the most extravagant of tops and/or sweaters. 

Available separately or as a full set, the Morrighan is sure to be an addition to your inventory that you simply won't understand how you managed to go without for so long.

Well darling dahlinks...it is time for this blogger to hit the hay.  But first...I mist find the perfect dress for these beautys, because time...waits for no one. Ciao for now :)

New Year, New Shiny!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, DAHHHHHHLINKS!  No...not drunk!! I haven't had a drink yet (I know, I know... *sheesh*).  But...here's why!!  I was so excited over the new shinies that Dahlinks just put out I was drunk off of the awesome and kind of stuck in the new releases section...drooling and going d'urrrrrrrrr all night. *nods rigorously*  Wanna see??? C'monnnnnnnnn you KNOW you wanna!!  Ok ok...come look!

THIS is one of TWO new releases this year at Dahlinks: The Yin Yang Pendant (L$150)!!  Available as male and female pendants, this modern spin on a very traditional symbol that equates to achieving balance is simply a MUST HAVE...especially in the new year.

A little history & backstory on this exquisite piece of ancient Chinese philosophy: the outer circle of the yin-yang represents everything. The black and white shapes (or in this case silver), represent how the two energies, yin and yang, interact. Yin (the black energy) represents the negative/dark/weak side; while Yang (the white energy) represents the positive/bright/strong side. It is also argued that yin represents female and yang, the male. Either way, yin and yang are not completely black and white as nothing in life is. But one can not exist without the other...therefore representing balance *ohhhhhm* (sorry...I had a "ya see, Timmy" mixed with meditation moment there... >.>).

Long story short...GET ONE!! 

And while your there...take the "time" to checkout our OTHER latest addition...Dahlinks 2010 Watch!! This is Dahlinks' first watch and it is oooooh aaah pretty *droools*. And right now at a NY SALE price of L$350 for a limited time!! Scheck it out babehhhh *winks*

Look at it!!! Loooooooook at it. OMG  I can't believe it's so pretty! Sorry all...I haven't been this excited since ... oh wait I can't tell you about that *giggles*.  But ... this marvelous piece of machinery is available for both men and women and comes in color options of: Silver, Brass, Gold, Black Rubber and Steel.  So you and your brother/guy friend/dad/insert male role that is your...opposite (see yin and yang) can wear a match set!!

.

Both items are available in the new releases room and as always, Dahlinks items are no transfer.  So if you want to buy someone a gift, head on over to http://www.xstreetsl.com/ (look up Alexandra Nichols  or Dahlinks) and pick someone up a wonderful New Year's gift...TODAY!!
