2Real has just released the PURE Sneakers and they include a HUD to change each part (individually or all at once) 14 different colors and 5 different textures. I’m showing you all 5 of the textures available in the image above, and one custom Pink&White plain version that I colored myself.

The textures shown above are: Playboy | Mic Rocka | New York | Graffiti | Camo

2Real – PURE Sneakers HUD

As you can see, the HUD is very intuitive and easy to use. I think these sneakers are well done, and you really get your money’s worth if you like the sculpts & colors available. I didn’t like the color choices offered, they were too bold and my favorite hot Pink color was was not included ;(

One thing the HUD has that I haven’t seen in other shoes, is lace options! I love that!

2Real – Pure Seakers (Playboy texture)

Here’s a close up of the PURE Sneakers with the Playboy texture, which is one of MY favorites (cos it’s pink) but I think it was a poor choice to use this copyrighted logo.

A lot of people gave me flack last year for blogging the UBU Drunks sneakers, because they said it was similar to RL Nike shoes, but it didn’t use a copyrighted logo! So really, it’s up to you if you want to buy these or not. I’m not an expert on copyright laws, so I won’t say if it’s right or wrong, just that it’s frowned upon.

Here’s a close-up of the UBU Drunks from last year, which I still wear and love.

I’m bringing my Site of the Week feature back to JuicyBomb. I discontinued the feature awhile back because I wasn’t keeping up with it but I’m bringing it back! I’ll try to send blog love to sites that are good and deserves a shout out :)

My current site of the Week is Holli Pocket Picks!

A friend of mine asked me why so many avatars on the feed put things in their mouth — like ridiculous things, that have no business being there. When the trend first started, it was limited to things like lollipops, ice cream, cigarettes, duct tape, etc. Then people started attaching cassette tapes, buttons, household objects, and little animals.

I think putting objects in your mouth is OK — I don’t mind it in the right situations! But I’ve seen people blog a formal gown, while omnomnomnoming* on a little mouse.

Here’s a list of reasons why *I* think so many people are putting things in their mouth:

• They’re hungry! Omnomonomnomnommmmm!
• They’re accessorizing!
• They want to draw attention away from their non-matching prim feet.
• They’re trying to save prims (by wearing it instead of rezzing it).

That’s all I can think of for now.

*Omnomnom = eating sounds! My plurk pals recently enlightened me that this is cute and not retarded, so I stand corrected. OM NOM NOM NOM LOL!

Guys, read this! If you’ve ever wanted to make a girl BEYOND HAPPY, send her Donna Flora jewels, and lots of it. I’m kind of hard to shop for since I already have most Donna Flora items, but if I didn’t already, these would be at the top of my wishlist.

Besides the fact that they’re gorgeous and affordable, all Donna Flora jewelry sets are no copy/trans. You don’t have to wait for a gift vendor, just buy it and box it up, and give it yourself :)
