    19.99 a minute

    2010-11-08 /

    wat

    I asked Whimsy tonight, “What do you think we are missing from our blogs” her response “paid Subscribers, 19.99 a minute’ that girl is going to kill me one day. Seriously within minutes every day spent with her I end up choking with laughter, that she then panics because she doesn’t know how to dial 911 for Australia. I keep telling her its 000 and she just laughs at me. Right now she is looking up cheap flights in the UK…why? God only knows, she is just fixated on the fact that they have them lol.

    DeLa recently released the Letti cowl neck sweater dress, and while as a dress this is gorgeous, it is killer as a seperate as well. So mixing the upper or lower portions with other pieces, I had a great time. So much of course that I ended it in the blue/choc combo because it is so cute I don’t want to change. I am wearing it in the beige as is, then with the pinkupper only with the new ripped low rise jeans from Nyte n Day, a recent release that are just great. The lower part, which really works well even with a jacket layer above, just a small pull down on the skirt prim, I am wearing with the GORGEOUS Season Sweaters from Fri.day, first with the belt that comes with the dress, and then secondly with the pashmina belt from Veschi that is at The Dressing Room blue for a short time.

    The collar on the season sweaters is just amazing, so pretty, and I would love to see this done as a dress, such a beautiful style, that needs more options. Lucky me that the Elsa boots from Surf Co have such similar contrast colour options as the sweaters, so they are a must with these. With all of the pics I am wearing hair by LoQ…relatively new to hair in the past year, such a great release at Hair Fair with the lace cloche’s, these newer styles are all win. The Brucella (black) is actually a special in colour packs on Marketplace for only 50L a pack, a steal, and if you join her subscribo you get another style free as well.

    I am wearing Eva the new Glam Affair skin, but more on that soon 🙂

    The first picture in this post was a lot of fun to put together, more so because I got to incorporate the fabulous build work of W.Winx, of course owned by Whimsy Winx. The pumpkin house in the background is a much loved favourite, and if you have been to Octoberville this year and last, you will have seen it on the mountain.

    For me this time of year is a definite mix and match, not just because I love putting all sorts of things together, but so that I can literally merge both my lives, my real one and my second one, seasonally at least. Fashion wise I love the upcoming winter goodies, and Autumn/Fall is my favourite season, but it is getting to be summer here, so the heat will make you sometimes wonder why I may be rugged up in some pics and a lot lighter in others, or both.

    This post is a bit of the both. The first look on the left is system skirt love, and one that is a big surprise as it comes from LeLutka and they do not often do the system skirt thing. This one has zippers and a great cinch waist tie midsection, for added realism. Whippet and Bucks FLF item yesterday is the top, but these and any other top in W&B would totally work this outfit, they do such wonderful seperates.

    All the shoes in this post are from Shiny Things, such long breaks between releases from Shiny Things, but well worth it, especially when three such beautiful styles come out at once. The leather and strapping work on these shoes are fabulous, the texture on the red made me so happy to have something to match up with the wonderful make up of the Exodi Isolde Vivante skins.

    Poncho lovers rejoice, growing up I had a rainbow poncho, not nearly as classy as this one, but the consideration that LeLutka went into to make it wearable by all is fabulous. The poncho holds the arms in place so that you don’t need to effect your AO, or have to use a 2.0 client alpha if you don’t want to. If you are lucky enough to have such fabulous bags as the dreamcatchers from Fri.day that have an unscripted version, you can wear it and it looks even more authentic as seen in the pic.

    The Jewelry and hair corsage in this pic are from Bliensen + MaiTai, and are at Jewelry Fair, which ends really really soon – I am so behind eeek.

    Third look has my legs cooled down,and my upper all snug. The LumberJacket by LeLutka is gorgeous, and a great match up with the trapper hat from Emery. I would so go out in winter like this, take off the coat and dance the night away, that way you have the lightness without dieing from the heat inside, and the warmness for the ride home again. A friend of mine once went to a club in Canada and said the coat check room was HUGE for this exact reason lol.

    The beautiful jewelry worn in this look is from Ear Candy, another Jewelry Fair item, so pretty and thankfully mod so I was able to remove full bright, they didn’t look so good in shadows.

    Go forth and Conquer the world today people, you never know when you wont have the stamina to try anymore.

    Middle Mouse clicking on a link, or image in flickr/website etc, will open the page in another tab – things I learn from Mel. I should honestly make that a category on my blog, daily he teaches me so much. But don’t half listen and middle mouse the tab, because that closes it :P, but if you right click the tab and use the undo close tab, then it comes back up, HE IS A GENIUS!

    So much to do, so much to do. Ok so again I am wearing Natasha from Glance Skins. She has such a petulant look, and I am finding it gets me shoes 😛 only joking baby, but it is kind of funny you watching everything I type. We have discovered in the last week and a half, that skype allows for screen sharing, thank you Marni 🙂 and as much fun as it is, it now means my work gets edited before I even finish. * Wonders if that is where her full stop was meant to be.

    Ok this is way too funny. Mel bought me some divinely sexy shoes from NCore yesterday, they are the Shark shoes, and have all these amazing options: anklets, studs, zebra stripe nailpolishes, socks/stockings and more. I particularly love the ability to change the colour of the heel and sole of the shoes to more funky style colours.

    The first dress I am wearing is from Eclectic Apparel. Her clothing is fantastic, and her new store looks fabulous, and is so easy to navigate, I suggest start buying everything from the right and work your way around to the left. The new Military dresses are killer sexy, and the fat pack is a steal. I love how the unbuttoned look has them pulling off a kind of asian look, so two styles in one so to speak.

    All of the hair I am wearing in the first pic is the new hair from Maitreya. They just released these fabulous styles, and I am totally digging the very different look of Lila, which is the four piggies. I love when hair looks like it is your own hair restyled into different looks, because of the beautiful textures of Maitreya that is done with ease.

    The Beertilicious dresses – wonders how drunk Cynful was when she named them – from Cynful are a sexy tube that can be worn with just about everything. The colours are great neutrals and bolds, and the added breast sculpties gives them a more 3D look. These dresses are wearable without the prim, just in case you want to wear something over the top that may not work, but in this case I am wearing the new Military Coat from Aoharu, that not only works as it is an open fronted coat, but also because it offers two attachment points, so that the dress prims don’t detach – not that I couldn’t reattach myself, but hey, when someone wants to do it for you, who am I to complain.

    Amacci just this past hour released these super beautiful long styles. How Carina makes hair is just incredible, just looking at the individual prim work makes me envious of her talent, and her concentration abilities. They move so well, and the styles of them are just a tad wavey and enough straight to have you going oooooo ahhhhh.

    Now I have pants

    2010-09-29 /

    Rez 3

    This time of the year is so much fun, Autumn is my favourite season, so to technically have two of them a year, with Second Life and my own, I am in paradise. One of the things about this time of the year, usually, is that this is the time when everyone starts to think in theme, with fall, then halloween, thanksgiving and then Christmas.

    Lately with so many themed events though, I was worried that would dissipate. Then I put on the beautiful hair and tops by RezIpsa Loc and decided that no, it still has that warm gooey feeling of fall. They at first seem very themed and would work so well with RP, but then the longer I had it on, I realised I would so wear this with regular wear. The hair is actually really inexpensive too so do not miss out on it.

    The one shoulder tops are also from there, and come in lovely colours, the whole store is a treasure trove of items, so be sure to spend the time to appreciate it. Also if you land in an empty store, the it is next door, I did that twice from picks and classifieds before I realised – naughty naughty.

    I am wearing the new Natasha skin by Glance Skins. Pouty beautiful lips and gorgeous body as usual. the skin is one tone and 15 pretty make ups, from the simple and light, to dressy and dramatic. DEMO DEMO DEMO, and if Natasha isn’t all that and a bag of chips for you, then try on the other beautiful Glance skins.

    Kookie last week released these fabulous pumps, the style is such a huge squee from me, based on the fact I have these exact shoes in a reddish black in RL, they are my favourite dress pants shoes, with incredibly high heels and platforms just like these. I was never able to find a pair like them again in RL, so to now have them in many colours makes me insanely happy. They are the perfect conservative look, with a non conservative adaptation.

    You may notice I have one green lashes, really they are the same lashes I always wear, just tinted. the Diva lashes from LeLutka are all prim, no alpha and once fitted are sensational. Newdoll just converted after she noticed mine, and swears to never wanting to take them off, the great thing is that they are so easy to recolour, so you can go regular black or over the top hot pink, I used to love to wear green mascara in RL so that’s the way I went for the last few days.

    I wanna be sedated

    Shadow SMS III

    SmRed

    Red 1

    Wow it seems like ages since I blogged, but only a few days. Through the week we have caught up with so many things, the other day Whimsy, Marni and I went to a Haiku Speed build, Whimsy and I came across this concept a few weeks ago, and it was our first attempt. We had a blast and are hoping to do some more in the future.

    If you have been under a rock in the past 24 hours the fact that Elikapeka of ETD is back will be news, with the new name elikatira, and two new styles have been released on the MarketPlace. It baffled me at first when ETD closed, not the closing part, as that was just shocking, but more the part where no one talked about it, or blogged it. I felt that something should be said/acknowledged about such a big deal…but then I realised that it was better to leave things unsaid, because she would be back, and talking about ETD as though truly gone might make that a reality.

    For this post I am wearing one of the two new styles, Fresh. Fresh is a modern take on an 80’s look. The sidepony was a huge hair statement back then,.and only really achievable with certain length hair. The hair textures Elikatira have now are just beautiful, soft and pretty, and I for one cannot wait to see the styles that will come forth from this incredible creator. I also hope she makes more accessories and shoes, as that was a definitely growing aspect of her store in the past.

    Marni Grut of Royal Blue has been creating up a storm lately, and I was lucky enough to see some of that process this week. It is just amazing from designer to designer how they go about similar things, by that I mean the steps they take to get to a final product. She is incredibly talented with sculpt making and her latest botties are proof of that. They are that perfect base of a boot shape that I love to wear, especially with pants. I don’t know what it is, but there is such a difference between boots and shoes, even when you don’t see the upper. These manage to give you that, without having an upper at all.

    Whenever So Many Styles is in FLF I somehow manage to buy more of the store than even wondering about the item, it is the actual event that gets me over there. This time I was truly captivated by the outside of the store, I swear it is a new build, because I do not remember it ever looking like that before, but I could be hallucinating. Either way, I really wanted to shoot a pic outside, and generally I steer clear of location shoots, they annoy me, but that is usually because I want to find one, rather than having already found one.

    The interesting thing about the sim SMS is on, is that it is encased in a sphere, so the sky is their own, no windlight no messing, it is easy no matter what settings you use. I logged in an alt to take a pic using Kirsten as you know I play with that viewer from time to time, with not just shadows but the every day. It is easier to have the alt log it in as there is no inventory to load, and the settings to shadows are already there, so it was a point and shoot,  done!  moment.. The pose is actually also from SMS as are the others used, that was a purchase on another flf day that took me there lol.

    I adore the tweed corset I have on, it was instant draw, one day I will get the rest of them I think. Beautifully sculpted and a stunning green. The skirt is from Luck Inc and if I have something in fatpacks you will see it more often, being able to just go direct to the item you know you want and grab the colours your thinking of is bliss.

    Back to my VR Studio and onto some in sphere shots, changing to a cardigan I have from SMS’s contribution to The Dressing Room in the past, this colour is not in the store, but I did check it does come in others that are, gorgeous colours too, so you wont be disapointed. I love Orange, always have, citrus colours rock my world, the legging also from there come in one great pack. Both items and the addition of another colour of the fab ruffle skirt go so well with the necklace also made by SMS, Irie Campese really does have a creative knack…from clothes to poses to accessories, shifting from one to the other.

    I am wearing the beautiful Trinity skin by Redgrave, this is a recent release for Redgrave and the make ups on this tan tone are just stunning. The skin started with the paper tone as far as I can tell, and I am pretty sure that many begged for a more human like tone so they too could look as lovely. I do not know for sure, but from watching how it seemed to evolve it seems as such.

    The pouty mouth on this skin is a big draw, if you love a good pout then DEMO DEMO DEMO. The different tones have different make ups, so you may just have to get them all lol.
