I love all sorts of photos and artworks created in Second Life, but the ones that stop me in my tracks most often are the simplest in composition, the closeup head shot. Usually there’s no set dressing, no complex background, nothing except a plain wall and an avatar. What makes a good portrait? The best […]

Blacklace Lingerie has been around for ages and ages. I think my first lingerie in SL was from Blacklace in a newbie bag filled with goodies. Mariska is still going strong churning out pretty high quality lingerie in an environment where many old school store owners are finding it difficult to keep a foot hold […]
Culture Shock 2012 is already under way and going on till May 26 with lots of great items such as clothing, skins, and accessories for men and women. This is a charity where all donation items give 100% or 50% of the sale price to Médecins Sans Frontières. More information on participating stores and a map of the event can be found on the Culture Shock Blog.
Culture Shock opened on May 4th as many of you probably know. The chosen charity for this event is Médecins Sans Frontières (for the second year). Bela Tolsen of Tutti Frutti has released a set of mesh pants and tops for this years Culture Shock. I’m wearing the Believe mesh pants and the top in Baby Blue (I think that’s the color of the top, SL won’t let me log into double check).
In about an hour Culture Shock will open and 22769 is one of over 100 vendors with goodies for you to grab. Two of the items available are the African Spring top and the Badu. Both have an very pretty ethnic texture and have a very earthy feel to them. Both items are rigged mesh and available in 4 coordinating colors. I accessorized with the Free As a Bird necklace from Caroline’s Jewelry also at Culture Shock. The necklace comes in gold or silver. I just love the delicate details in this piece, and you can wear it casual or to dress up for a night on the grid.
When I first saw the Courage pose from oOo Studio at Back to Black the song that popped into my head was Leap of Faith by Michelle Branch.
Any type of relationship you have, be it in SL or RL, is a leap of faith. After a bit over a year partnered Salvatore and I are taking it a step further and having a wedding tonight. This was a tremendous leap of faith for me, but I have never lacked in courage.
As you already know we have Chic’s Back to Black event going right now. In addition the Juicy Crush On You event is happening this week. Be sure to check out the coverage of both events on the Seraphim Blog. The ladies on Seraphim do a fabulous job covering all the events. I depend on them so much, I don’t go to an event until after I’ve seen their coverage.
At the Crush on you event, Mudhoney has the Juliet Chair, with 7 couples animations, 6 parent & child animations and 20 singles animations and the Love Is All You Need Poster. I’m wearing the Serenity Leisure Outfit from by Lizzie at Back to Black. I love the pants they look so comfy. Salvatore is wearing the black Survival T-shirt from T-Junction and WTG Jewelry’s Courage necklace. Both items are also available at Back to Black.
Chic Management’s latest event is Back to Black the goal is to increase awareness about mental health issues. Back to Black opens tomorrow 2/11. There are some great items available. So be sure to check it out tomorrow.
Two items I loved on first sight were Maiko tattoo from sYs and the Flutter Boots from Lassitude & Ennui.
Fishy Strawberry recently released some pretty cool items. At this week’s Fashionably Late, Fish Strawberry has the Moto leather pants available. There are alot of leather pants out there, but the textures aren’t always so great. I really like the texture on these, it gives the pants a realistic look. The pants come in 4 colors at L$100 each. A great deal.
Salvatore and I decided to enter the contest with me wearing the awesome lingerie piece from Coquette available exclusively at the Vintage Fair. The fair ends on December 3rd. So if you haven’t gone yet HURRY! Oh and I almost forgot. I am wearing the newest release from Wasabi Pills. The Sachiko mesh hair. It is so cute, it comes with non mesh hair clip and bow you can wear separately.
Chic Management’s Vintage Fair opened today. The Vintage Couch from Lost Angel is one of the fab items available. It comes in black or red and single or couples pose version. The couples pose version of the Vintage Couch has 5 couples poses all adjustable. D. Select released the Negligee for the Vintage Fair. It comes in black and white, be warned there are no panties. I accessorized my outfit with Mimi hair from Ploom, the Audrey Pearl Necklace from Caroline’s and Fanciers Best earrings from undefined lillies.
Chic Management’s Vintage Fair opens tomorrow 11/11 at 4 SLT. One of the awesome designers at Vintage Fair is Tutti Frutti. This awesome outfit I’m wearing comes in several bright psychedelic colors and patterns. There are also matching belts and ties to finish off the look.
When it was time to chose hair, I went with the Farrah style from Truth. Once the wig was on it screamed Charlies Angle’s. It just screamed to be accessorized with guns.
