One of the outfits I've always admired even though it was never seen "on the Red Carpet" was Julia Roberts's polo outfit in Pretty Woman. You know, that super-simplistic but uber-classy sleeveless A-line smock accessorized with that awesome Breton, bag, belt, gloves, and the earrings...
Well, I'm not really a jewelry designer, but I threw in shoes since I'm not really into jewelry!
Yes, "*~s0c~* Pretty Woman Polo Ensemble" has hit Xstreet and my shop. Right now, the "Punch" version of this dress is the Market Day promo, so you can get a super deal if you're willing to put in a little effort, buy half of the outfit on Xstreet, then visit my Market Day Stall, which btw, is on my NEW HOME SIM!
The ensemble comes in the classic brown, basic black, and Fashion Fest 2010 pink which is being saved for Relay for Life auction. Once the Fest begins, the dress will be offered in a special vendor where a portion of the proceeds will be donated to that very worthy cause.
Stop in to the store, see what's new. Espadrilles are going like CRAZY!!!

MARKET DAY in ARGENTEUIL!
After almost a month of intense sim work, switching over all inventory to ad board vendors from the hippos, and building the venue, Market Day is ready to launch the GRAND OPENING of ARGENTEUIL!
There are a number of special things planned for your visit including the "Two Martini Lunch" Thursday at noon and METALLICA to cap the week on Saturday at 4 pm. It's a true "Dads & Grads" themed musical week! MusicNotPolitics will also provide a great slate of some of the best musicians in SL including KevinThomas Carpool. Our full music schedule will be posted here as well as in your Market Day News.
You'll land at the gazebo, and from there you can walk Vendors Way up the beautiful embossed metal ramp, seeing what all 22 vendors have to offer you. If you're in the mood to start with the music, take the TP straight to the ballroom area where the stage on top offers not only our musical guests, but a great panoramic view! Any TP within the common areas of Argenteuil will take you to great shopping at either LiX for casual men's and women's or formal and dressy casual for women at S0phie's Choice Design. But before you leave, toss a few breadcrumbs to the baby swans and grab a boat ride for a gorgeous view of the waterways while enjoying the lounge sounds of Martini in the Morning.
Thanks for visiting during Grand Opening week!

GRID STATUS: Market Day EXPOsed & Uncensored!
We should have known, that if we had a decent idea, it would be targeted. Well, I knew that, I just really figured we were small-potatoes enough that we wouldn't attract enough attention.
Between us and Zindra Unzipped, I'm thinking that the attention of the Lindens is more focused on disabling competition to their "ZEXPO" than fixing the grid problems. As of this writing there are a scant 4k+ logged in, and it's likely they will continue to drag their feet fixing this problem for days if not hours. Why? Cuz they can.
As we frustratedly wait on the grid to come back up for most people, I can assure you the Merchant Guild is in cooperation with our sim host of Market Day EXPOsed & Uncensored! during this time to extend our event, potentially lacking the entertainment we'd hoped to offer, through the weekend.
I think KittyCat our sim host would be incredibly happy, in fact, since our traffic was 7093 on the first day, and 1.5 times that much working up to the second day!
Stay posted here, those of you interested, and we'll update as soon as we can on Market Day status!

Merchant Guild Market Day--SUCCESS!
The first Merchant Guild sponsored Market Day was a HUGE success, bringing in average daily searchable traffic averaging over 6,000! That includes absolutely no advertising except within sales groups on both Thursday and Friday.
The Merchant Guild will hold its next Market Day on April 27-29 for three consecutive days--3 for the price of 2 ;)--on the adult sim Austerity. The theme will be Romanesque Romance for a classy sexy blend of both adult and mature (moderate) merchants and items. This event will be unique in that we have room for a stage where we will feature live entertainment as well as DJs, and even a few fashion shows! Complete schedule provided via Market Day News which is a web-subscription based pubilcation that does NOT require a Second Life group slot! Sign up at my main store in Craggen Maw.
