Today the Etheria Fashion Show & Event opens. Here you will find collaborative works of 5 jewelers and their choice of clothing designer. For my store I have made a statement piece. Carlotta Jewelry Sets include a matching necklace, earrings, and ring. These are available in a diamond, onyx, or variety set. The necklace and ring have a 1 script resizer, plus a bright on/off effect. All scripts can be removed for future scripting limits. Although they use very low script time.

The designer I chose is Betty Doyle of Ingenue. I absolutely love her classy style. Betty created the Valdez gown which comes in a variety of colors. I am showing it off in black here with her Freynii shoes.

Join us today at 3pm slt for the Fashion Show and Start of the Event!

Chalice is as tall as can be and often struggles with non-modify pants.

I found three examples in my inventory to support my dilemma when it comes to skirts and sometimes dresses. I assume its because I am so tall that with non-mod pants that I can’t make shorter, the skirt/dress prims aren’t long enough to cover the pants. In most instances, I can’t lower the skirt enough to rectify the problem. I’m sure others are in the same boat so can I ask designers to consider making glitch pants modifiable so that your gorgeous outfits look their best and don’t have pants hanging below the hems? I have quite a few outfits I just can’t wear because of this which is a shame.

AZUL has released Fiore revised edition.
The original Fiore was released as the first gown after Mami had opened her own shop AZUL in 2008. She has refurbished the texture and shape this time. It’s become more flower-ish, doesn’t it?

Reasonable Desires has WORLD CUP FAN outfits out at their mainstore location for 1L a piece. I just had to break out this TEAM USA outfit that my friend Austie dropped on me in honor of a wager I have going with Prad Prathivi!

I’ve offered up some genuine Georgia Praline Pecans if  England kicks the ass of  Team USA. I’ve suggested he bring me the heart of Adam Ant if we win. But I also said I’d accept some candy instead.

I don’t particularly think that Team USA is going to win. But Europeans nearly stroke the fuck out if you even SUGGEST Team USA might beat them, so it’d good times all around in my world. I mean, they don’t care if we beat other teams from the Americas -but BY GOD WE ARE NOT BEATING ANY EUROPEAN TEAMS. You guys can admit that I’m right, I don’t even care.

I’ll admit that most of us have our kids play soccer until we think they are big enough to play real sports.

AHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH. (Half of the world’s heads just exploded, I know). LIGHTEN UP PEOPLE.

The dress is Niven called Kashmir Konnection and a real fav of mine. I think Scarlett Niven’s extreme talent must have sent her mad because she’s selling this dress for the meager sum of $10L. I mean that is insane but thank you Scarlett…I love this profusion of color and texture. Look at the quirky brooch that hangs over the chest…it’s gorgeous.

I am wearing my new favorite skin from Inaya called Kimshara. It has a dark hair base just perfect to attach Inaya’s Maya hair piece that hangs over one eye…it’s edgy I think.

These pictures are taken at a cool sim called Viceland. Not that you can see from these pics, but its awesome for photo taking so take a trip there and let your imagination run free.

Take care everyone. It’s a long weekend in Australia for the Queen’s Birthday. Poor people from the U.K. don’t even get to have a day off. Happy Birthday Lizzie (and I don’t mean Lizzie Lexington although if it’s your birthday too, Happy Birthday Lizzie L.). 

Not that it will ever be read by them but I wanted to send a message of condolence to all the Linden Lab employees that have unfortunately been let go.  One third of the workforce is a lot of people and I can’t help but wonder what impact this will have on service.  I do want to say thank you to all of you who have undoubtedly contributed in a multitude of ways to maintaining and improving SL and I wish you all the very best in whatever you do.  I know we all hark on about performance etc but we do keep coming back to this virtual existence and I for one think its brilliant and fun and addictive.

From the people I’ve got to know and observe, it’s not a outlet for socially inept losers but in the main, it attracts incredibly talented and forward thinking people who all have a story.  SL take a bow.

In conjunction with Euphoria Day & Spa Salon Muse SL is having a hair fashion show, presenting stuff from Tukinowaguma, PurpleMoon, Je Republic and Dr. Life. Don’t miss it!

I remember consulting with image experts for a new branding campaign for an organization several years ago. Our logo and materials were all red and white and the consultants wanted us to add blue. I wanted to avoid using exploitative associations with the flag to attract support. The consultants explained that red, white and blue ad campaign color really had nothing to do with the flag, but with trying to draw both genders. Women are drawn to red and men to blue and it’s likely that our membership was 65% women was due as much to our color choices as our program. Well, that’s not true, there is a gender gap on social and economic policy, but adding blue did result in increasing the percentage of men in the organization to around 40%. I think that’s just wild that a color could do that, but I have to acknowledge that I am much more drawn to red than to blue – especially a rich cardinal red like this one in the adorable new blouse from Modern Gypsy which I have paired with an old pencil skirt from Ingenue.

I chose the chic and simple St. Tropez slingbacks from Lelutka for its lovely cardinal red.

I limited myself to bangles from Sigma and earrings from Creamshop as the blouse’s collar provided all the interest needed at the neckline.

The skin is from the soon-to-be-released Candy from PXL Creations with gorgeous red lips.  The hair is from Lelutka – the lovely Tallulah style.

I just can’t say this any plainer. If you do nothing when you log in, TP to Inaya Skins and try on the demo’s. You absolutely must. I was contacted by Sandro Fratica in-world asking if I would be interested in featuring these new skins in my blog. Sandro is co-owner along with skin designer, Naalyeh Raleigh. I visited their store and Sandro kindly handed me a blogger package containing these new skins that had only days ago been released.

People…OMG. I am in love…LOVE I tell you and I want to share it. Only you know if you love a skin when you try it on but please, do yourself a little favor and just see if you love them as much as I do.

In my rush to get this post out, I haven’t had time to show all the line but I will finish them off in a day or two. These will just have to tide you over in the meantime. I always struggle with profiling skins in respect to the pictures. I thought this would be the easiest way to show you the full length and face without overdoing it with individual pictures. These were shot in world with no post work in an attempt to give you a fair representation of the skin. If they look this good raw, imagine how they’ll look with you all tarted up?

Sandro and Naalyeh you have an amazing line of skins on your hands and I simply can’t wait to see it grow and prosper. I just can’t express how I love these skins and will be keeping an eagle eye on all of your upcoming releases.

There are hair bases, freckles, teeth and hair attachments for sale but I recommend you just go there and try them all on.

Long ago and far away I read a book  called The Octopus by Frank Norris – a story of the exploitation of the wheat growers of California. It’s central truths, though, were as applicable to the farmers of the Midwest that I knew and their history that lead to the creation of the Grange and the Farmers Union – so I have a soft spot in my heart for that book, even though it is not very well written. One of the most memorable things about the book for me were the occasional bits of expository meanderings that began “The Wheat! The Wheat!” I saw those four words and knew it was here-we-go-again time.  “The Wheat! The Wheat!” has forever been able to send me into a fit of giggles ever since. So, of course, this post featuring the lovey butterdish sim and this glorious combine has that phrase running through my head.

You might wonder what wheat fields and countrified clothing have to do with Adam n Eve’s glorious gold metallic skin  with the face a motherboard must love, but I posit that for a wheat farmer, the techno-riffic skin is a better match than the League’s booty shorts – no matter how cute they are with the paint splatters and the too long pockets. Threshing is dusty scratchy work and anyone operating a combine in their right mind would wear long jeans. Farming, on the other hand, demands an immediacy of information that makes farmers some of the most wired people you can find and that skin is wired.

Before the internet, this farmer would head on down with her Maitreya Desert Boots to the local cafe for a mid-morning break to hear the futures on the radio. Small town restaurants across America knew the key to success was a radio tuned to the futures to draw in all the farmers who would listen, discuss the days prices and factor in their knowledge of the markets, the weather, how well the crops they and their neighbors produce were doing and try to time their commitment to sell for the optimum price. Farming combines all the intricacies of market forecasting required by Wall Street analysts with back-breaking labor, god-awful early mornings and the high stakes of gambling – all for a job that for many just scrapes by.

Today’s farmer has some advantages that earlier generations did not, though. And I don’t mean cute hats with hair from Miau Haus or fabulous jewelry from EArthSTones – though they are certainly a bonus! The cotton shirt from Artilleri also would be worn proudly by any farmer.

Today’s farmer has the internet – with frequent and complete access to commodity markets around the world, with more sophisticated weather information and the information on commodity harvests not just in your region but around the world. Yes, that increases the complexity of the decision-making process, but certainly makes for more informed decisions that are less of a gamble. That’s why when I saw this Adam n Eve skin with the Byte Makeup – I didn’t think of cyborgs. I thought of farmers.

Callie Cline released a cotton-candy sweet confection called the little glitter dress. Perfect name. It’s little, especially in length and it glitters with all the soft pastels of spring. I adore the dress and thought it was perfect for the softly romantic new Chloe skin from Exile.

The shoes are from Kookie – a fun pair of wedges that I have found irresistible lately.

I don’t know about you, but when my dress is that short, I have to wear tights. I chose one of my favorite pairs and now I have to apologize because they are no longer for sale. These are the G.L.A.M. Metallic Lycra Tintable Tights. They come in three shades of silvery gray that allow me to tint them to the color and shade I want. There are alternatives at many stores and you can search for tintable tights, but for me. I love these. Love, love, love them.  They are certainly my favorite freebie of all time.

I don’t know why Viva La Glam (the newest name of G.L.A.M.) closed its doors. Some stores close for personal reasons such as the heavy work load of school or the stress of illness. Some close because the sales don’t justify the hours of work. Some close in frustration with not making headway, or in exhaustion from the many demands for participation in fairs and expos. Some close because they can hardly create faster than the copybotters steal from them and get tired of working for the benefit of thieves.  Some quit because they get tired of unreasonable customer demands. Some just get tired of the game.. We cannot really know, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing we can do to help encourage our favorite retailers to stay. Here are just  a few ideas, and I bet you can think of more:

1. Be thankful for freebies and group gifts.
2. Read their profiles before making customer service complaints or asking for help.
3. Be polite when asking for help. It may be your one and only pressing issue, but retailers may have several issues to fix, investigate and work on. Give them time to investigate your complaints.
4. Don’t buy copied items, accept copied items as gifts or pass them on.
5. If you love a store, tell your friends. SL is a very competitive market and too many disappear before the rest of us even know they were there.
6. Tell people where you bought something when they admire it. They aren’t trying to look like you and if you keep your favorite stores a secret, they might not make enough money to stay open – then you lose.

I wore two necklaces with this dress for twice the glittery fun. The long necklace is from Swallowtail – the Bubble necklace and it’s a perfect fit for the dress. The shorter necklace is from lucas lameth’s store [luc] and I am wearing the matching earrings as well. It’s a love enamal pendant with flowers. The hair is from eha, the store I have been dragging my friends to for the last month because I love the hair and want them to stay in business and keep on making beautiful new hair for me.

The new skin release from Exile’s Kavar Cleanslate is an exquisitely soft and gentle skin for the romantic in you. With softly shaded highlights, it is very romantic and feminine. I love how well this Myst makeup goes with the outfit.

There’s nothing like showing a little strategically placed skin to up the OOOH Factor in a dress. Did I say little? The Ohara dress from Elisea Carter takes the strategically placed concept to the ultimate level.

This is not a dress for shy people as there’s glimpses of skin from head to toe, but with fabric in all the necessary spot’ it’s arrestingly beautiful without getting you arrested.

The back of the dress is what initially drew my eye in the store. I love the two necklaces that come with it. They were however, much too large and since it was no mod and did not have a resize script. I was able to return them to the owner (this is a no copy/transferable dress) who sent me replacements with resize scripts.

The outfit is one of those complete head-to-toe outfits complete with jewelry and shoes. Generally, I prefer to choose my own accessories, though with this, the necklaces are so much a part of the look, it makes sense to include them. Usually in a complete set, the quality of one or more of the items suffers and I wish they just didn’t bother. I seldom wear the complete set – but this time, the quality was good enough and it made sense with the intent of the design.

The skin is PXL Creations Candy – elegantly delicious with the EMO-tions Storm hair style. Hart is now working on the makeup colors so it can’t be long before it’s finally released and yes, I am as eager as you are.
