Couple poses are tricky…! I’ve made a few but this is the first one that won’t rot away inside the giant black hole that is my inventory. Come grab your free copy at my shop 🙂
Models: Lili Brink & mystery boy 😛
This pose is best on fluffy clouds, a rock, stairs… use your imagination!! I modeled it after a famous painting by William-Adolphe Bouguereau with the same name.
Truth has 3 (and a half!) awesome new hairstyles. The Aiyana hairstyle even includes a set of face paint on the tattoo layer — if you’re not using a viewer that has tattoo layers you are so missing out!
Truth – Bebe | Aiyana
Truth – Nadine 2 | Nadine
Do you remember Janie Marlowe of Mischief? Well, she’s back with Jane and the stuff I’m seeing so far is really cute. The style is casual and easy to mi- and-match with different items from the brand or mix with other casual pieces in your inventory.
What I’m Wearing:
Caroline’s Jewelry – Fall Flowers Necklace & Earrings
Jane – Cozy Corduroy (Khaki)
Jane – Warm Embrace Babydoll (Cream)
Friday – Dream Booties (Cream)
I’ve been feeling extra festively lately. The holidays are coming, so there will be lots of occasions where you may need a sexy shimmery dress. I’m wearing the Nardcotix Zelene Dress in Gold, Silver, and Aqua. This dress comes in a wide selection of colors but I chose to wear these because they match Donna Flora’s newest Dolores choker & earrings set.
This is a system skirt, so be sure to wear your Skirt Shape with it. If you don’t know what a Skirt Shape is, it’s just your regular shape but with smaller hips and a smaller butt. I usually put on the system skirt and take away 10 or more points until I’m happy with the end result. No two skirt is alike, so go ahead and make a bunch of skirt shapes! 🙂
Why does your ass look twice as wide in a system skirt? I don’t know since it’s a mystery to me too, but the Skirt Shape is a way to minimize that. I’ve seen people say they ‘won’t change’ their shape for ANY REASON AT ALL. Really? Not even in a system skirt? You are brave! 😛
What I’m Wearing:
Laqroki – Molly 07 [Fair] Glow Skin (Light Brows)
Magika Hair – Genesis (Platinum)
Nardcotix – Zelene Dress
Donna Flora – Dolores set (Pink, Gold)
Bare Rose – Clutch Bag (Black)
Nardcotix – Kurvy Pump (Black)
I’m now part of the advisory board for the Linden Endowment for the Arts! The Linden Endowment for the Arts is a user-run program that uses land donations from Linden Labs to foster nonprofit art exhibits and activities. You can read more about LEA here and learn how to apply for the next round of land grants.
My first interaction with LEA was through one of their projects, Art Farm Co-op. I spent the summer of that program’s duration learning and growing with other SL artists, and engaging in a thoughtful and friendly community. After Art Farm’s program ended, I hung around the LEA public sandbox, constantly checking out what other people were creating.
So now I’m on the advisory board! I’m excited to be here and I hope my insight will make LEA even better.
If you see me around the art sandbox, feel free to ask me to host an impromptu sandbox art tour with my SYZM taxi! I’m always up for that.
What I’m Wearing:
Lelutka Simone Head
[ a.e.meth ] – Eris Skin
Nylon Outfitters – Pixie Hairbase
Madpea – Floral Crown (Freya)
I went to Skin Fair! I tried on lots of skins and discovered a bunch of new to me brands. While I am genuinely excited about the 2k BoM options available, I had hoped to find Maitreya LaraX versions of new body skins, which I did not find this year.
I recommend stopping by Sparkle Skye’s booth to check out the new floral body art sets and the free gift. Although I am not a huge fan of tattoos, because I don’t think I could pull it off, I still appreciate beautiful body art, stickers, and similar items.
This weekend, I’ve been experimenting with the official Second Life viewer and updating all of the third-party ones. I’m excited to try the new Khronos tone mapper, but I will need to adjust all of my EEPs because now everything just looks way too bright. Currently, my EEPs are designed for the ACES tone mapper. If Khronos is the future, I hope Second Life and all third-party viewers will prioritize it as the first choice rather than a secondary option. I do not plan to release any EEPs until everything stabilizes; it is quite frustrating to redo them each time there is a color change in any of the viewers. Have you had a chance to try the new Khronos tone mapper in Second Life? I’m still getting over the shock of PBR colors, so now PBR + Khronos will be yet another new thing to adapt to.
Read More “Berries”Flux is the latest release from Hugo’s Design and it is very sexy! I totally recommend HD all the time when people ask about latex lingerie, because they’re the best in SL. I don’t normally wear latex but I do collect quite a few outfits from various brands simply for their interesting designs and I like knowing they’re there, should I need a latex outfit!
The Flux set includes a pair of long gloves, latex bra top, black panties, socks and garters on all layers.
Here’s a close-up of the group gift from BeBae that I mentioned in my previous entry. This gorgeous makeup is a group-exclusive, so when it’s gone.. it’s gone! Join *BeBae* to get the gift.
What I’m Wearing:
BeBae – Belina skin (group gift)
HD – Flux set
MMS Hair – Peta hair
Bax – Ankle Boots Black Patent
:sey – crosspierce earrings (previous group gift)
I read about a new Avatar Welcome Pack and got really excited. What’s this? New avatars? Is Second Life finally offering us something visually appealing? Anything would be better than Senra. Curious to know what’s included, I began digging around and stumbled upon the Virtual Bloke blog (Second Life New Avatar Welcome Packs – It’s time to check your inventory library, folks!). Unfortunately, the Avatar Welcome Pack was quickly removed from the Library; Second Life stated, “These items are in the final stages of QA, but we’re not quite ready to unveil all the details just yet.”
UPDATE: The Avatar Welcome Pack is back in the Library now.
I wanted to know what’s in the welcome pack, even though I don’t really need it. So, my friend Sasy suggested that I check the beta grid since the updates there tend to lag behind the main grid. Boom! I found it on the beta grid.
First impressions? It’s okay. It’s definitely better than Senra, but it feels limited. This pack includes a very lite body and a very lite mesh head; however, they are wearable right out of the box. There are also some hair and clothing items included from various brands. I’m currently wearing everything as provided, without any customization. When this goes live on the main grid, I think residents will enjoy the opportunity to mix and match these heads and bodies with more items they already own to create something cuter.
I can’t wait to see how this impacts the new user experience in Second Life. It’s quite intriguing that Second Life is focusing exclusively on human avatars as part of this new user experience. Even though I am a human avatar all the time, I truly appreciated the grid’s diversity, which included animal avatars and various non-human avatars, among others.
UPDATE! The set back eyes are because I didn’t reset skeleton. I just figured that the avatar came like that, lol! So imagine these avatars without the set back eyes. 🙂
I love looking at it. S’cuute!
This was a really pretty wellmade pose. I picked it up and had almost forgot it. It works as a wonder, both with female/female and female/male avatars. With 2 fem, I just edited the male poseball a bit higher. And yes…. it’s used for vampire RP….
