In Episode 11, we aren’t going to talk about clothes. We’re going to talk about islands. Well, islands full of clothes and other things we love shopping for. Recently, two of our favorite designers have opened up their own new islands, treating all of us to a relatively lag-free shopping experience. And one of our favorite islands has just reopened after recovering from a drastic face-lift. Finally, we’ll discuss two more shopping islands, one newly opened, and one on the way. Welcome to Second Style Stylecast!
The first island we visited was Nicky Ree’s Tropical Orchid. Nicky’s island is dominated by her new mega flagship Designing Nicky Ree shop. Here, you can find everything Nicky Ree for all of your fashion needs. Nicky’s neighbor on Deco, Shai Delacroix, also has her own new island for the Casa del Shai. While this island is open, it’s not quite finished! There’s a gorgeous new store on top of the island, but Ms. Delacroix is planning something more under the island. We’ll just have to wait and see what she’s dreamed up. But if the Casa del Shai garden is any indication, it will something whimsical and fun.
Tableau has recently reopened after recovering from a massive face-lift. There was nothing wrong with the old Tableau, but the new Tableau is amazing. Modeled after New Orleans, it’s so lushly drawn, you can feel the humidity!You can still find Fashionably Dead, Nylon Outfitters, Yummy, and Barnes, though we’re still waiting for Paper Couture to reopen there (visit the Barcola location in the meantime!). However now, there are even more shops and a great little coffee shop filled with art. Don’t forget to visit the Voodoo Shack to get clues for the island’s scavenger hunt!
After searching for unique hand-drawn skins on Tableau, be sure to head over to Le Zoo for some more great shopping. Anchored by Tuli, a new Pushbutton Industries main store, Tres Blah, and Opium, Le Zoo is also the new home to Second Style’s headquarters. Grab a golf cart and tool around all the great shops and sights with your balloon animal in hand!
Finally, we’re all waiting with baited breath for Saeya Nyanda’s new island, Silent. Silent will be the headquarters for Kyoot Army and the new store to be devoted to Saeya’s Photosphere. In addition to Kyoot Army, there will be an even bigger Savvy? and several other shops. The island will have a film noir theme, with everything in grayscale, with touches of color. We can’t wait to see what Saeya has up her sleeve!
