Black...black...black!!!!

Ok in case you didn't know this, I loveeeeeee black clothes especially black dresses. I try hard to be more diverse but I decided to go with it this time. And here are my two latest releases.

Tiffany is an elegant black dress with stunning silver sequined accents. There is a soft gauzy skirt overlay that you can wear to dress it up even more!

Kimberly is the second black dress and I absolutely love the cut on this dress. It features a mock turtleneck (unusual on a more formal dress), two tops (short and long-sleeve), a single strap connecting the bottom and top of the dress, and ablack belt with silver inlay! Both are perfect for those upcoming cocktail parties.

Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!

Hey everyone, I took an old favorite and revamped it for the holidays! This sassy little red dress has gold accents and is sure to turn the head of any reindeer lol. It is available at my main store only at JD Mills for....FREE!!! My gift to you! Enjoy your holidays!

By the way, the jewelry is from Blang by Zelly Zadoq and the hair is from The Fetish Boutique by Imani Moseley.

Arg...I've been tagged

Seems that I've been "tagged" by http://blog.sensualdesigns.net/ . I have a big favor for her anyway so I'm being nice and playing along lmao.

The rules are:
1. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
2. People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules.
3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

Randoms Facts about Jana Fleming
1. I usually send chain mail back to the person who sent it however many times it specifies lmao.

New Hair@Fetish Boutique!!!

Happy Thanksgiving All!! My good friend, Imani Moseley over at Fetish Boutique just released a bunch of gorgeous hair! Most of the hair in my ads are from her store. Just wanted everyone to have a chance to experience this fantastic hair designer's creations! I simply LOVE her textures! She released 20 new ones so they are not all on the pic. Go see for yourself!!!

The Avenues (227, 132, 25)

Such an incredible loss

First I'd like to extend my condolences to the family of the beautiful man behind the persona of Ginny Talamasca. I've gone back and forth whether to post anything and was kind of glad that the news had not become public because that way I could deal with it privately. But here we are. I echo the sentiments of Starley most closely. Second Life has lost a tremendous talent, artist, and person. There are so many stories I could tell about my relationship with Ginny but suffice it to say, I will miss you sooo very much. The pic above is from one of our "meetings" which always took place in the sky somewhere. How appropriate when I look back on it and for now I'll end by saying "save me a place up there my friend."

Classic Sweater Dresses@Jana's Classic Designs

Hello everyone! I'm ashamed to say I've had this dress sitting in my inventory, too lazy to package it up and photog it but I finally got off my butt and got it done. There's a few more tucked away in there too lol, so be on the lookout.

But this set is my Classic Sweater Dress. It's a cute sweater dress with short sleeves and a sexy belt, available in 5 colors. It's perfect for the fall weather!

Interesting puzzle

(click on the picture)

Which way do you see the dancer turning? I see it mostly clockwise but then occasionally it changes up for me and I see counterclockwise. It has to do with left-brain vs right-brain dominance. So I can't wait to see which way you see it. Look at it a while too and see if it changes for you. I have a headache from looking at it lmao.

Bandana's for You!!!

Ok, I told you about the recent death of my computer *cries* and I'm just getting back up to speed with the new one after reinstalling and updating, blah blah. I wanted to do something fun so I made these cute bandana dresses! They are available in six colors and boy do they accentuate your every curve. Just the thing for the end of the summer lol. They are available in all my stores and you can click the link to the right for a tp directly to my main store at JD Mills.

P.S. The headwrap is not included as it's a modification of the band on the hair. The hair is from Imani Moseley at Fetish Boutique.

Enjoy!

Wow!

Hey lovies!

I'm back among the living again (I think) lol. This summer has been such a disappointment to me design-wise. I've spent the last 3 mos living on the edge of a major computer crash and actually had a few major crashes. Lost everything just about and then couldn't really manage to run photoshop at all. Buttttttttttttt I did manage to get a new computer - YAY!!! And after devoting time to some personal things, I think I'm ready to pick up my tablet and get to making clothes again. I've got some ideas brewing now and I'm opening up PS as soon as I post this. Hopefully, you'll see some new designs floating around soon!

Missed you all!!!

Introducing NONI

Ok, hot off the sewing machine (LOL) I have a new set of beautiful dresses inspired and named for my niece, Noni. But pleaseeeeeee don't tell her I didn't make a purple or pink one. She is quite the purple and pink fanatic but I hear she likes gold too now so maybe she'll be appeased :))

The first set features a matching top, skirt, and pants along with a flexi prim skirt which is sheer on the outside with highlighted color underneath. I threw in a pair of matching heels with gold accents in each pack.










The second set is Noni Basic Black with black top, skirt, and pants with the flexi prim skirt with sheer black outside and highlighted color underneath. Black heels with gold accents are included in each.



These dresses are wonderful and be sure you spin around in them. They are very impressive when dancing so put one on and go out and party!!!

By the way, you can wear each dress with all the pieces or you can leave out the skirt and just wear the pants with the flexi. Oooops forgot to say they will be out at the main store (see the link to the right under Some of my Favorite Places) later today or tomorrow!

Enjoy,

Jana

Yay!!!! New Bikinis!!!

OMG I'm so sleepy but for some reason I couldn't rest without releasing these bikinis. There's 3 styles - Barbados (with 10 different colors available), Scintille (4 colors), and Tonga (2 colors). I have no rational idea why Barbados has 10 colors except I started having fun coloring it. But then I had to photo it from two angles and compile a nice ad pic for all of them. Then box them up - twice mind you. One for my vendors and one for display sales. So that great massive coloring idea became very painful over the course of the past 2 days.

Anyway, just posting a pic of one of each. They are available at my main store for now. They may be rolled out into my other stores later today or tomorrow or day after....who knows lol. You can tp to my main store from the link here or check my profile picks.

Goodnight!!! rather Good morning :))

Guess what?

The "Pearls" have been FLEXED!!! Gold Pearl and Pink Pearl were some of my earliest prim clothing. They still sell well and I've had a few requests to update them with flexi skirts so there they are! I'm keeping the original prim skirt in the box as well.

Hola all!

Hola all!!!

I had the chance to get away for a few days and it was so worth it. As much as I love my friends and family both in SL and RL, it was nice being away and unavailable lol. I only turned on my cell phone once a day to check messages and check on home briefly! And I didn't even bother taking my laptop with me - that's a first!!! Anddd I had access to a computer than I could have logged onto SL on but I wasn't even tempted.

But I'm backkkkkkkkkkkkk. I was checking out some videos and noticed that I could embed them on my blog so I stuck Beautiful Liar up here so you can see where the inspiration for the last set of releases came from. Maybe now I can listen to the words and see what the darn video is about lol.

Stay tuned for some new releases soon (hopefully lol). The weather has been so nice outside the past few days it's hard to stay focused. Plus I have to get started on some rl work that I've put off for far too long. But sooooon......

Smoochessss,
Jana

Beautiful series is complete!!!

Due to an ever pushy Fiyah, the Beautiful series is now complete with the latest release of Beautiful in Red. So that makes black, white, and red. And before you even think about it, no it won't be released in any other colors! lol

Also new is something romantic and ultra sexy - Deja Vu. This hot number can be worn as a dress with the flexi skirt or as a sexy undergarment with the panty. It reminds me of the old cigarette girls. Or if you stick a bunny tail on the back, you'll be the hottest SL playboy bunny!

Beautiful in White

Ok it's official - I know some pushy people!!! But thanks to their pushiness (Fiyah Golding!) Beautiful is now available in white. The texture on this is reminiscent of a glorious lace wedding dress so I wouldn't be surprised to see someone who prefers a simpler style wedding dress to jump the broom in this number.

And Fiyah, keep holding your breath and maybe a red will magically appear lolol.

New Releases

Ok I thought I was doing very well. Wrote out a second post with pics attached and bammmmm...it's floating out in cyberspace somewhere lol. Anyway I wanted to post my latest releases and talk a little about them.

All 3 outfits are very much inspired by Beyonce & Shakira's new video "Beautiful Liar". The funny thing is after watching it for a zillion times, I have absolutely no idea what it's about - although I can deduce from the title that it's probably about a man :) I was so in the zone checking out the clothes I'm not sure I heard a word of the song. The dance moves were hot too. But a longtime customer IM'ed to tell me I HAD to watch this video because there were some beautiful dresses that hadddddd to be made loll. And here they are.... Beautiful, Shakira, and Liar. All available at my main store at JD Mills (the links is in my picks).

Welcome!

Hello all and welcome to Jana's Classic Designs on Blogspot. This has been an intended project for a long time but since I am a total novice about website design, it's just been sitting in the back of my mind lol. But here we are and I'll do my best to figure this thing out :)

The primary purpose of this blog will be to provide a place for my customers to see what's available in my stores in SL. And also a place for me to ramble about whatever happens to be on my mind at the time.

So let me get things underway by clicking some button on here to get this posted. Bear with me though because it may be a slightly bumpy ride for a while lolol.
