I don’t have a premium account because I do not own any mainland parcels. That 100US/year or less membership fee is nothing compared to the outrageous island fee that I pay each month. So quit your bitching, kthx.
Instead of thinking of ways to restrict people from the grid, or who deserves to be on more, I think LL should definitely find ways to ensure that everybody that wants to login can login. As an island/biz owner I want more residents online happily shopping away, NOT LESS. KTHX.
New Exile hair texture – Stefani (with roots) | Stefani (no roots)
OMIGOSH YOU GUYS! New Exile hair textures are so fantastic! As you know, my favorite Platinum Blonde from Exile was previously the Harlow color, but that color is gone from the new pack, and replaced with an even better, more vibrante Blonde color — Stefani!
I lifted this image from Kavar’s Flickr account to show you guys all the new colors and color packs available. I’m loving these!
Exile – Alyssa | Danika | Annalise

There are two male hair released as well, so there’s something for the boys but I don’t wear boy hair so you’ll have to go check it out yourself!

Hello from Serendipitous Sands! This dreamy beach sim is the perfect place for today’s outfit. I am wearing this adorable Pico Top from A N E Fashion, and pairing it with the Cia Highwaist Shorts from The Secret Store.
I wear a lot of shoes from Ingenue, you could say that it’s my go-to brand for shoes. Most of the styles are available in plenty of colors and prints, and pairs well with casual styles. I am wearing the Elodie Flats from Ingenue. Exile is killing it with this gorgeous Long Beach hairstyle, available at Summerfest! It feels like summer is a year-long season in SL, which is alright with me cos I mostly live on the beach.

I bought a bunch of stuff at the Gatcha Gatcha festival but my inventory is a mess and they weren't labelled "Gatcha" so I can't remember what they all were. Here's the stuff that I DO remember!! Katat0nik is practically giving away these adorable Kattypop purses – you pay the lil' Katat0nik machine $15L per play and get a random color. They are no copy/transfer so you can exchange with a friend or give it away, if you get doubles. The purse also includes the 'hold' animation, and works great with your AO.
Don't forget to try the HANAUTA food machine! On my first try I scored the Petit Tart in Strawberry flavor. Whoohoo! It matched the Katat0nik Strawberry Dollie Dress perfectly.

LeeZu has just released a ton of goodies!! This is fast becoming one of my favorite shops in SL for casual and dressy pieces that work so well together. I'm wearing the Au Revoir de Sade Jacket in Blue. This jacket has 3 versions, and is unisex (yay! guys can wear it too!).
I'm a short jacket kind of girl, but I really like that it's offered in 3 versions.
This is the Margo Jacket in Snow. It was love at first sight! I like this top because it has elegant sleeves and ruffles, but is totally revealing and sexy without being slutty. It's just different, and I like that.
Last but not least, the LeeZu Lana Top in Blue. So sexy and who doesn't love a little but of under boobs showing? I'm pairing it with the LeeZu Brit Pants in Silver, which is one of my favorite pair of dressy capri pants. <3
Tp to LeeZu!

You might have already seen the Neva River sim featured on a few dozen SL blogs. I’m late to the party, but I tend to avoid places that are over-hyped, cos I know it will be extremely crowded and I can’t de-render anyone or anything since I use the official SL Viewer. Finally, I went today, cos I wanted to see it once before it closes to the public.
I was sick all week, but I’m feeling a lot better now. Send me some good vibes, cos being sick was just awful awful awful awful awful.
I’m loving this new Caprice hairstyle from Truth so much, that I haven’t taken it off for days. It’s so sweet, and one of my favorites. Also, the other half of Mon Tissu released some lovely Collared Shirts, and Tulip Shorts. The shirt includes a long version, and a short (tucked in) version. This outfit is so casual, perfect for exploring new SL sims! 🙂

After I linked to my Ruthed.com post, a couple of people went out of their way to leave Anonymous “hate” comments that was neither necessary nor relevant. I have no issue with Yoko Leeroy’s pricing at all — in fact, I talked to her today, and now I have a clearer understanding of why her Pick was worded that way. It was rude, but she said that some fellow creators sent her IMs saying she was ruining their only source of income — which sounded familiar to me. When Eloh Eliot first released her skins PSD, some people also had the same outrage. And look where we are now? The skins economy is not ruin, and in fact, we have even more brands to choose from than before.
I am happy when I can talk things out with people who may offend me at first glance. I can’t say the same for some of you guys in SL though, who went out of your way to IM Yoko after my link and said, “I can’t believe what Gogo did to you!”
To people who went out of your way to IM Yoko, LOL @ YOU. It got you into her shop didn’t it? Shame on you, for trying to fuel the fire 🙂
Yoko thanked me for her extra sales today 🙂

I’m glad someone said this. The problem isn’t about who gets in, the problem lies in the fact that LL has not made an effort to make sure everyone can get in. Asset servers and database problems have been off the chart lately, making life extremely difficult for anyone who buys or sells in Second Life – add on to that the number of consumers dropping because they can’t even log in… sigh.
Agreed. I don’t have a premium account, but I participate just as fully in SL- I work in world for a non-profit; I pay rent, which allows my landlord to pay LL; and I shop A LOT (seriously, A LOT). When I can’t log in, all of those little things I do to support the SL economy don’t happen. Multiply that by all the users who can’t get in, and I’m sure the effect is huge.
As grungestyle said, isn’t the point here to make sure that the grid can accommodate us all so we can all contribute the SL economy in our own way?
