It's not too common to find a store on the SL grid that has items that can appeal to every avatar. I feel as if novelty shops are a dying breed as of late, that's why I'm thankful that there's Intrigue Co.

Owner and creator Katharine McGinnis, has picked up where some of the greatest novelty creators in SL have left off. Offering clothing, poses, household knick-knacks and wearable guineasaur, to name a few. Two years ago this May, she began her creating endeavour. Ingenuity, quality and craftsmanship are what show the most in creations from those who build because they want to. Intrigue Co. has never failed to show those traits in its products. She's come such a long a way from when she first began, those who have been following her in-game career marvel at how far she's come in terms of skill and creativity. If you haven't been lucky enough to watch her grow, she's just getting started.

If the grandeur blue Intrigue Co. castle hasn't called you in, the unisex animal pajamas will. A tremendous hit through weekend events, her creative and unique animal pajamas have become a favorite amongst a diverse group of inventory collectors. Her attachable and rideable Guineasaurs have been a favorite as well. You may have seen them featured generously on Torley Linden's Flickr and tutorials, as well as the Second Life log in screen. With numerous communities peppered throughout Second Life, it's refreshing that there is an in-world store with so much to offer to absolutely everyone.

Aside from the whimsical look of the store itself, one of my most favorite things about this store is the fact that every item available is affordable and comes with the ability to be gifted. What better one stop shop to buy something fun for yourself as well as a gift for a friend? Not very many stores offer an in-game gifting option, which makes Intrigue Co. perfect for such tasks. If you're short on linden yet want to take a piece of Intrigue Co. with you, there's a lucky chair on the second floor full of fantastic goodies waiting to be claimed.

Intrigue Co. is located on the Meow sim, just look for the brilliantly hued blue castle. If you haven't checked it out by now, I don't know what you're waiting for. Pick yourself up one of Intrigue Co.'s many exhilarating creations, you deserve it.
