Sliver or yes, my name is spelled K I A G O O D L I F F E !! :-D
Sometimes you find elegance in an item, that at first you may not expect, or did not plan for. That’s how I actually felt about the hair in the first picture. Once worn with the Exotic Dress it became a very different style, that draws the eyes to exactly where they need to be, in this case the back of this exeptional gown.
You are so going to want to read further, due to the fact that Mel my partner found the most AMAZING thing for photographers and fashion bloggers, he is awesome – but I already knew that. Now the reason for the post title is because someone wants us to know how to spell her name correctly :P, either that or something else entirely lol, waves to Kia.
The gown comes with sheer and solid variations, as well as a swimsuit bottom that brings it all together as a full piece. There is a matching cropped bolero style jacket with epulets as part of the ensemble, similar to the one shown on the last picture, but I opted for without so that you could see the incredibly beautiful back.
The epulets definitely give to a cyber military theme, with the latest releases, the next set definitely brings that cargo flavour I love to the mix. The pants in this set are just fun and baggy, but definitely sexy in their low slung style. The top is a favourite, the style is different and very well structured as a look, it has a realistic sturdiness to it with the shadow and highlighting, I would love to see more in this style in other prints or fabrics.
This set also gave me an excuse to wear this fabulous hat/hair again, that is actually on sale at Xstreet in one colour, you really need to grab it before it goes back to regular price – not sure if there is a deadline on that or not.
The next latex lovely, is another one of my ‘held together by a song and a prayer’ ensembles, seriously these items are great for the thigh muscles and buttocks. Big Badda Boom is first thought when it comes to the Splice set, the gauze body suit is missing some straps, but it is definitely LooLoo -esque.
The arrow cutouts on the arms of the latex jacket are very cool, and again the whole look has a kind of military feel. The skin I am wearing is the new Mauve skins by Dutch Touch, each new release of skins by DT just brings incredible character to the faces, they are incredibly striking, and the body detailing is super. The eye make up in this release are beautiful, and the lips have a variance in depth of colour and shading, overall they are beautiful and really need to be seen on.
Also please note my eyes have changed, the beautiful eyes by Aemilia Case of Philotic Energy are part of her new Fuse Melon brand , they are really beautiful and the ones that I am wearing are Thaw, which have the added benefit of being prim and a soft touch of glow added. I wear prim eyes for their ease of use, often actually grabbing a hold of them in edit to capture a sideways glance and so on, if you are on the look out for new eyes, definitely keep your eyes open for their release, the Thaw gives me the much wanted silvery look I crave, with just the right hint of green to keep me happy with not such a radical change. COMING SOON!.
Now about Mel and his Brilliance, he was searching for something for me the other day, and declared he had found something I might enjoy, ENJOY ! that’s an understatement.
PLEASE NOTE: This cannot be used full time, you will not be seen by others as you see yourself if they do not use the same modification. Designers cannot use this either, as much as it would be great, it will cause you way more headaches than it helps.
Ok so why would it be good then, well for photography and fashion blogging and featuring for magazines etc, this is genius, but it does have it’s bugs. The main bug being only those that also have it will see you as intended.
Example one is in the third picture, the collar I am wearing is attached to the NECK , yes this delightful attachment giver, not only gives extra spots to attachment locations we already have, but also gives new much needed ones.
I was going to do a movie showing you , or pics with lots and lots on, but that would take the fun out of doing it yourself. Also be aware the best way to use this feature is with Copyable items only, as that way you can dispose of the modified one, or keep it seperate so as not to appear crazy to others, yes the bug is like the old shoes up the bum bug, but imagine EVERYTHING ending up there.
The fourth picture in the stunning Seneschal Formal Dress – love that cut out look, showing off the beautiful body work of the NEW Dutch Touch Mauve skins – has me wearing the cog gears that are a seperate attachment to the fabulous hair, but unfortunatly the same attachment as my piercings, but due to this new mod, I am able to attach to my second mouth LOL. A few minor adjustments sometimes will be needed, but adjusting to a second same location is a lot easier than finding free space on another that may move differently.
This mod has made me so happy, especially when it comes to hair with seperate bangs etc, often the bangs are using the same location as my hair roses do, as well as other peoples attachments, but this means at least when it comes to shooting, I just attach a copy of the bangs to the second chin or even third. As you can see in the picture how many options you have.
The relocated items will remember where they were attached to, so you will as I mentioned have to either delete or put in a seperate folder within the original just to keep everything from floating a mile behind you, that is another option if not up the bum, they will float away from you.
All I know is that for people that love accessories, and doing really elaborate look book styles, this is the mod for you, so a big huge hug to Mel for this one, and of course people who built the mod in the first place.
Link to originally get the mod HERE , JIra and info about the Mod HERE . I personally like the idea of someone implementing this into a viewer so that more people do have it, and in that way more can see it, which would allow full time use. I have faith in the brilliance of our residents, go forth and give us the attachments.

Seductiva
Rubberised and ready for Mel to come home. While I was waiting I decided to go on a quick run to some favourite latex/rubber stores. I always try to find new ones, but for all the tping around and finding such scarey places along the way, I have to often give up. Sometimes though , the same way I originally found this store, I get lucky and it all comes together marvelously.I’m shooting animations again today, so make sure you check those out.
Off the rubber for a moment though , YUM the hair. Both styles had me at hello, yes as corny as that is, it is true. Firstly the Beach short style I do not know if it is made for men or not, but I don’t care it is an incredible short style. The Babycakes, which has that song stuck in my head now, is just adorable, so cute but in that definite lolita up to no good way, one thing I have noticed about Curio hair in the past few years is that Rita always manages to release that naughty girl hair that is a MUST HAVE.
Oiled up and ready for time in the sun, and don’t you worry it’s designer oil created by Laq – that makes it acceptable right ? I swear as soon as the notice was sent that LAQ released oil I chuckled, because now people might stop picking on others that ask for it – lol , the oil is the light by LAQ as stated, and it comes in other depths of cover, I also have it in medium and wet, so much fun for photography and just lounging by the pool or at the beach…it also helps when putting on extra tight rubber.
The Key Largo Beach set is comprised of a pushed up tshirt slightly torn around the edges, bikini top and bottoms and very accentuating mesh booty shorts , and by accentuating you will have to find out for yourself.
The next set that I got today is the Womans Undergear set, this set comes with three tops and three bottoms options, on all layers. Due to the miracle that is Second Life, one of the tops is held on by a prayer and possibly spray adhesive…but that is what makes fashion in Second Life so much fun. One of the options of pants – not shown – are actually very wetsuit boardshort like in design, I am actually wearing them now beach side.
The Animations I have used for this post are again by Red Queen, the latest release today of the Seductiva AO had the sim packed to the rafters. The stands and different movements in each animation are just gorgeous, I especially love how the hands and arms mould themselves to the body. If you go and take a look, all the animations can of course be purchased seperately , so you can make your very own AO from bits and pieces.

When you have NEW Skins to show, from a store like Red Queen [rQ], you really want to try and go with that edgier more RP look if you can, even though these are so beautiful and would look great if wearing a frock with pretty flowers on it as well, I wanted to go with more of a kicking bum kind of look.
Now if I was the target of said bum kicking, and believe me lately it feels like I have been, I am prepared with the rubbery goodness of Elixir, yes two posts in a row of Elixir goodies. I am wearing the Renegade Outriders in Black, Black/White,Black/Lime and Black/Violet.
These pants are sold seperately, and come on both layers giving you a snug boot fit, I love the rubbery look, with the open sides cinched with straps and netting over layers on the legs, it’s all in keeping with that futuristic look they are going with lately. The Renegade Outrider pants also remind me of BMX or Dirt Bike riding outfits, so it’s all dependant on how you play.
The Renegade Vest/Harness also comes with colour options, and have a great blend of rubber and latex, I love also that you can wear the harness style only as shown with the shorter look. Definitely an enjoyable outfit combo to show off the Skins by Red Queen [rQ]. Showing off the bodies I am wearing the Latex Bikini also from Elixir.
These skins are shown in the Tan and Sun versions, they also come with dark and light brows, as well as tattoo’d versions, which is just a nice way to accentuate the lower back, and save a clothing layer for something else.
The Basic and Pride make ups are full of parts to love and truly admire the way that Ruth Quan of Red Queen [rQ] weaves her PS wand. Basic is the first picture of faces, Pride is the second and more dramatic, both have such beautiful features especially the inner corners of the eyes, the liner accents there are marvelous.
I also really like how the upper lip seems to curl up in a sensual pout, I hope that Ruth does a lot more make ups in this skin range, I would love to see the effects she has done with the purple shadow with deep reds and other rich colours, oooo silver would be yummy too :P.
The body is fit and lovely, and the scattered moles and freckles across the torso give it a nice natural look. DEMO DEMO DEMO you will love it. The Hair I am wearing also from Red Queen [rQ] is Dreams, a great long and piled up style.

“Check the body” was the suggestion, and I flew home and got naked. I knew there was only one place to check in this case, and I was correct. The latest skin release from Gala Phoenix of Gala @ Curio is June, which will be released later today.
The skin is now bare down there, with summer rearing its firey tentacles and with a lot of swimwear wearing about to take place, the June skin had to be ready for it. I for one am very happy this has occured, as it saves on mishaps of changing in public and rushing off to meet friends or colleagues and having to worry about something being cut too low, and I am sure – before you think it – there probably is many a business meeting done in swimwear in Second Life.
All the rest of the body on June is the same details and beautiful shading we have come to love. You also get the light/dark options with each tone as previously, and two variations of each make up. This time around the feature make up would have to be Swan, a delicate fluttering of wings around the eyes is just lovely.
Pure fans you will be delighted to know the June Pures are marvelous, and Doe is a fav for me already…I predict a lot of play with Oriental Poppy as the vivid burnt orange and reds are going to really enrich your passion for colour, definitely go and stand in wait for the Demos at the Curio sim, you will love June..she is definitely the older sister of the naughty lolitas of April.
Elixir recently released some sci fi inspired pieces in their latex items, also this very hi-tech looking Lingerie called Alpha fine lingerie, it is really nice to see people provide all sorts of clothing variations when working on a theme, for those that are really into RP and futuristic play, this set is sexy and fits the bill.
The lingerie comes on all layers, with different options, and it is delightfully mod, for tinting possibilities. I am so partial to the white though, one thing that was adorable in this sexy set, is that the pieces actually don’t join, they cling to the skin as only futuristic fibres should and can, and not only that, I secretly think that it’s too clear with the dots and dashes of the creation, that it is in fact a secret message for an unknown force, so make sure you are prepared for the encounter, however close it may be ;)…check out Elixir for very sexy latex and lingerie.
The hair I am wearing is a NEW style from Aden called Kaylee, yes for those of you that thought Aden had left us, the store has re-opened in smaller premises for now. There are 7 New styles as well as older ones you may not already own. The Black tipped Hair Rose is from Essentia, and is one of my all time go to’s with the hair roses, this and the black tipped grey are my most worn I would have to say.
Shoes are the Nana Heels from Enkythings, and the poses I used in this post are all from Persona, there are beautiful poses there for lingerie shoots especially.
