Nymphetamine Boutique released a very sexy lingerie set called What Dreams May Come. I love the little neck bow included with the set, and a short ruffle skirt worn with the panties.

The What Dreams May Come set in white would be a perfect addition for a new bride because it’s sexayyyy!!
But if you’re feeling a little edgy, get black. I love black, black goes with everything.. and it’s classic.
A new cycle for Collabor88 starts tomorrow! I love these new pieces from The Sea Hole by Drinkinstein Sorbet, who is also the creator of the Collabor88 event. I have a thing for bold and bright colors, and this new collection has plenty of that! The colors can be worn together to create a coordinating outfit, or mix-and-match and create eye-popping looks.
✿ cheLLe ✿ is releasing a makeup set that coordinates with this month’s Collabor88 color scheme. It is on sale for 58L! so come check it out! The Neon Neutrals face makeup set includes 6 bold & bright face makeups — the eye shadows & faded lipstick combo is on a single tattoo layer and cannot be worn separately. It’ll work with most skins.
Hello from the new Java Sprockets Coffee House on Puffin Head! I’m so pleased Linden Lab is going back and revisiting the older regions of Bellisseria. My favorite house is right next door to the Java Sprockets, so I am definitely thrilled by the new coffee house!
When I read about the passing of Ebbe Linden this week, I reflected on all of the past CEOs that Linden Lab has ever had, and he was the most engaging of all of them. A lot of cool projects happened under Ebbe, so I think that the grid will continue forward pretty much the same, as long as the executive team still believes in the same vision.
This is a post I’ve been waiting to write since last year. Last year, being a total Bellisseria enthusiast, I bid on two Relay for Life auctions and won them! I like that the Lab is so involved in Bellisseria and finding ways to engage the residents and hype up the interest. The auctions that I won are:
Did you ever buy a sign just cos it has your name on it? The Hello Gorgeous sign from RAMA will now grace my Second Life walls. Typically I would not pay L$550 for a pack of neon signs, but how could I resist this? For everyone that’s new here, Gogo is short for Gorgeous.
I’m absolutely loving ReShade! I recently started exploring it, and I’ve noticed a lot of SL residents using it to enhance their snapshots. However, there are some downsides. It can be a bit tricky to use, and you’re limited to taking screenshots at your display size rather than high-resolution images.
The graphics settings in Second Life have improved significantly over time. With certain third-party viewers, you can access features like depth of field, tonemapping, and color grading, which means that while ReShade is still entertaining to play with, it’s not as essential as it once was. That said, it can create stunningly ethereal effects, making your photos truly pop! See all of my ReShdae snapshots on Flickr.
ReShade is a generic post-processing injector for games and video software developed by crosire. Imagine your favorite game with ambient occlusion, real depth of field effects, color correction and more … ReShade exposes an automated and generic way to access both frame color and depth information (latter is automatically disabled during multiplayer to prevent exploitation) and all the tools to make it happen.

If you’re curious about experimenting with ReShade in Second Life, there are plenty of tutorials out there to help you get started. I began my journey with it back in May but got sidetracked by PBR. I’m still on the lookout for my favorite ReShade add-ons, so if you have any suggestions, drop them in the comments!
Now, let’s discuss my look for today. I’m a huge fan of Wings hair, but I’ve noticed lately that the bangs sit very closely against my face and lashes, leading to some stubborn alpha glitches. I really think the designer should consider tweaking the front strands to sit a bit further from the face, or at least provide some customization options.
I usually tackle alpha glitches in my photos, which is why I always recommend demoing hair before you buy. I’ve adjusted my shape and face somewhat, but I’m not keen on widening my face just to make this hairstyle work. Finding the perfect fit is crucial!
Hair Fair 2011 is almost here!! The fair opens to the public on July 2nd, but you can try some demos today — just join the Hair Fair DEMO Group in-world to receive them.
I signed up to be a part of Hair Fair Bloggers Day, so I was able to sneak in this morning and take some photos. I used the SLurls list on the HF blog, and was able to locate all of the brands I wanted to see pretty quickly.
ALL hairstyles have at Hair Fair have some proceeds donated to charity, so you don’t really have to worry about that when shopping at this event.
Like previous fairs, there are lots of fabulous new styles & freebies/dollarbies, so come check it out!
I couldn’t decide which brand to blog first, so I’ll just go with one of my favorite brands in SL. Exile hair has 5 new hairstyles out, and they’re all for girls (sorry guys!). I am not complaining though, cos more hair for meeeeeeeeeee.
New hair from Exile, Truth, and Tiny Bird!! I like that these 3 brands have several shades of Blonde to choose from. I typically go for very light or something that complements the brows of the skin I’m wearing. The newly released styles are adorable, check ’em out!
Exile – Leilani
Exile – Kendra
Tiny Bird – I and Love and You
Truth – Geri
Truth is also giving away Festive Geri hair (similar to the Geri) in 4 colors so if you’re not a member, go touch the subscribo to get the gift!
