“For Girls Addicted to Shopping” — TP to tReY dOpE, DUaL
Hi guys! I am kicking off your Monday with a more in-depth preview of the Tuli Eva skins! The release is just 3 days away, so I hope I’m not being too much of a tease.
Eva comes in 10 makeups, 2 cleavage options, and three brows! Tuli pretty much has everything that *I* like covered — I love regular boobs & a bit of a cleavage boost, and I loooove different brows choices to match a variety of hair colors.
Tuli – Eva brows – Light – Brown – Black
Here’s a preview of all 10 of the makeups available:
This face is so sexy! The skin tone & texture is so realistic and so easy to photograph. The skin looks so different on my shape, but that’s what I really like about it. I feel like this skin has a more mature look, and begs to be worn with darker hair. For me, Tuli’s skins have always been better for Brunettes, so that’s what I usually wear it with.
How I choose my hair color for any skin depends on how the skin looks on me — does it scream Blonde, or Brunette? Even though most skins are pretty versatile and works with many hair colors, there’s always a “perfect” hair color for any skin, that will just work together to make everything more realistic.
Tuli Eva skins are available on March 18th @ Tuli’s Main Store on Journey.
When I’m not exploring SL, I really just stand around in my underwear in-between blog posts! It’s a really easy look to put together, and it rezzes fast. I bought this Junkyard Barbed Headband from TheAbyss two years ago, and never found the right occasion to wear it. As I was digging around my inventory for a headband, I stumbled upon it, and it seemed like a good fit for today’s look.
I’m wearing ultra sexy Siren (Red) lipstick from Pink Fuel. Mochi released this as part of her Femme Fatale Series (Alyx) skin for The Costume Ball. I’m not wearing the skin, but if you’re a fan of Alyx, this is a chance to collect another makeup, since the full skin is still unreleased.
New LeLutka Bento Head Update! So many new features! I don’t know how LeLutka could get any better, everything is just so amazing as it is right now. I will try a bunch of new skins this weekend, cos there are some great sales on the grid! If you have any recommendations for me, let me know in the comments.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! 🙂
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Kiera (Biscuit), My My Matte lipstick
Exile – Dusk
Teefy – Emma Ruffles Sweater (Peacock)
This outfit is so sweet and perfect for a casual day frolicking around in SL! I put a lot of effort into my SL outfits, but the only people who get to see them are you guys! I guess that’s fine, but some days I would really like someone to see the outfit in SL and say something nice about it too 😀
Who knew that Peach and Blue went really well together?
Check out these sexy new Jacqualine Sandals from Celoe! Each pair includes Gold or Silver chain option.
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Sora (Peach)
Exile – Crazy in Love (Stefani)
Leverocci – Sleek Blazer (S) Coral
BOOM – Everyday Tank (Snow)
Teefy – Lovisa Ruffle Mini Skirt (Cobalt Blue) S
Celoe – Jacqualine Sandals (Shine) GC
LaGyo – Cloe Necklace (Gold)
Hucci has just released the cutest Rhinestone Velvet Lingerie set, so I played around with tattoo layers and wore matching lipstick and nails 🙂 I love this set but it shows a lil bit too much nips! I wish it came with a modest version too. I’m wearing the Lipstick Red color, which is perfect for Autumn and Winter.
Analog Dog – Kathryn | Full bright (original) | Full bright unchecked | Hair after I modded
Analog Dog is one of those shops that I will buy from occasionally but I kind of hate it. A couple of months ago I deleted my entire Analog Dog folder cos I just didn’t like the older “flickering” hairstyles anymore. I went back for some of the newer hairstyles cos I do like them but ugh, it’s full bright. The demo and the hair is sold as full bright and that’s just not a true representation of the hair color. When I purchased the lighter blondes pack, I unchecked full bright and the alpha hair looked really odd so I had to modify the hair to remove all of them, and now it looks better (see picture above).
If Queue Marlowe is reading this, please offer demos with full bright unchecked too? Full bright makes the hair look so newb and horrible in-world.
Recently, I came across a tweet about a photo taken at a Second Life event. The photographer had used AI to enhance the image, and the creator of the build featured in the photo was upset. That moment sparked a deeper question for me about how AI is affecting our community, both in Second Life and in the real world.
As a journalist and the owner of one of Second Life’s longest-running feeds, I believe this is an issue worth exploring. AI is no longer a futuristic concept; it’s here, shaping our virtual and creative spaces right now. So, I did what any curious person might: I asked a question.
I tweeted to Philip Rosedale, tagging him in a repost of the original tweet by the designer, and asked for his thoughts on designers banning paying customers from their stores simply for using AI to edit photos featuring their products.
Let’s be clear. This was a paying customer, not a sponsored blogger who received the item for free in exchange for promotional content.
I also asked the designer a few respectful follow-up questions to better understand the situation:
Rather than engage in dialogue, the response was swift and hostile. The store owner became aggressive, and what followed was an organized harassment campaign: blocking, banning, public call-outs, and social media attacks from the designer and her circle. All of this over a question and a public repost.
Now, let’s talk about rights.
As a store owner, you absolutely have the right to decide who shops at your store. But does that extend to controlling how your customers use the items they’ve purchased, especially when they’re not violating any of Linden Lab’s platform rules?
Think about it: if you buy a designer dress in real life and enhance a photo of yourself in it using AI tools, can that designer dictate what tools you use? Should they?
That’s the heart of the issue.
We’re at a turning point. AI is a powerful tool, and it’s not going away. We need to find ways to integrate it thoughtfully and responsibly. Yes, AI raises valid concerns. Artists have every right to protect their work. But the real conflict is with the AI platforms and usage terms, not individual customers using generative tools for fun or creative expression.
What happened to open discussion?
Instead of resorting to harassment and public bans, we need honest conversations about how AI fits into our world. Shutting down discourse through bullying only creates more tension and alienates those who genuinely want to engage.
Second Life has always prided itself on freedom and creativity. Its slogan says it best: Your world, your imagination. That imagination now includes AI for many users, especially those who’ve found new joy and creative flow through it. If that’s discouraged or punished, we risk losing more of the vibrant community that keeps SL alive.
Let’s talk about it:
These are real, evolving questions, and the answers deserve more than a block button.
I’ve included screenshots and a timeline below of the events that unfolded. At no point did I attack or harass anyone. I simply asked questions and engaged with the issue thoughtfully.
I understand people want to support their friends, but inflating a single tweet into a campaign of harassment doesn’t help anyone. If anything, it shows just how badly we need open conversations around these new challenges.
Because one thing is clear: if people aren’t allowed to express themselves or explore creatively, they won’t need to be banned. They’ll just log out and may not come back.
