Happy Sunday everyone! One of my favorite sims to photograph at is ChouChou! I know everybody photographs there but it’s worth revisiting every now and then. I want my own ChouChou-ish sim…

Fishy Strawberry is back after a brief hiatus! The new Apron Top and Waistband Mini is available at TDR Fusion this month. I especially love the bow & ribbon on the backside of this top, so adorable.
What I’m Wearing:
Exile – This Years Love (Vanilla)
Pink Fuel – Harley (Peach)
Fishy Strawberry – Apron Top (August Peach) S
Fishy Strawberry – Waist Band Mini (Classic Denim) S
CandyDoll – Oxygen II
Sugar – Yummy Bites Headband (Carrot Juice)
Pink Fuel released Appliers for SLink Avatar Enhancement Feet! Even though I’ve always been able to tint my hands and feet to match my skin, I’ve found that appliers work so much better under ALL lighting conditions. I can’t wait to have matching fingernails and toenails polish! The default polishes that came with SLink feet are plain and without designs, but SL residents have really made some stunning ones for the Av Enhancement version.

As you can see, I am wearing the same size feet (Small) in both picture, but the Av Enhancement version is slightly bigger, not sure why! I thought my tinting for SLink’s feet was pretty good, but now that I’ve seen the Applier version, I like it a lot more.
I don’t change my main skin often, but I do like to bounce around between the skin tones. Since appliers were introduced, I tend to stick to one skin tone more, cos I don’t want to buy more appliers or have to re-apply all my attachments. I know a lot of you guys change your skins and skin tones often, do you also buy appliers for ALL of the skins that you wear, or just your main skin?
Before I end this post, I just wanted to post a picture of the default SL feet, hopefully never to be seen on this blog again!!!!

Didn’t I warn that Bakes On Mesh was coming? I did. I said this was going to force mesh head makers to revert their UV maps back to standard SLUV, too, because everyone is going to start using standard skins more and more now. If you are a mesh head developer and your heads don’t adhere to standard SLUV, get on it. You will lose money eventually because customers are going to want to wear whatever skin they want with whatever head they buy.
Bakes on Mesh (yes, plural, according to this SL wiki page) is a new feature in Second Life that automatically “bakes” your standard skins and tattoo layers to your mesh bodies and heads. Whenever you switch skins or wear different layers of tattoos on your body, your mesh will automatically update your look without you having to do anything.
Over time, there will be less and less dependency on applier routers like Omega, because now Second Life’s system is the applier. However, you’ll want to check with your mesh body maker to be sure their body is BoM ready. If it isn’t, they should be updating soon.
Only certain SL clients can render Bakes On Mesh, too. If you want to be absolutely sure you can see the new feature, head over here to download the official Second Life client.
Read More “Bakes On Mesh”I love these photos taken at The dome by five minutes after! I went here to buy the wood fence for my sim, and was blown away by the lovely mini-city build, all inside a small dome. It’s so pretty, and definitely a great place for photos! I used Torley’s Windlight settings for these pictures, and didn’t Photoshop them at all. I wanted to mimic a light leaks effect sometimes seen in film photography.

Happy Tuesday!
I love the Teefy items so much, I am wearing it again today, in a different color and print. Instead of a retro look, I’ve decided to go with a more modern and casual style by wearing a plain White top with darker floral prints. At times I am insanely jealous of my virtual wardrobe!!!!
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel Skin
Truth – Zoella
Teefy – Laura Unbuttoned Knotted Shirt (S) White
Teefy – Leah High-Waisted Skinny Jeans (S) Floral
L.Warwick – Umbriel (High Strapped Heels) Noir

When is a t-shirt more than a t-shirt? When it's a BOOM Essential T that comes with 4 different levels of sheerness! The Essential T has includes the Layerable, Sheer, Faded, and Regular fabric option (shown above). I like that this t-shirt is longer and reaches the waistband on pants, too.

The Layerable option is my favorite because you can pair it with very sexy lingerie underneath. The Essential T has great shading, it's one of the nicest sheer tops I've seen.
What I'm Wearing:
LeLutka – LondonRevolutionLight-makeup1
Zero Style – Ayase (Swedish Blond)
Blowpop – Yvette sheer lace set (pink)
BOOM – Essential T (Men's/Unisex)
skream! – veritas rosary necklace
hoorenbeek – Air Force (Pink/White)
And I just want to quickly address a comment someone left on my site saying my shapes are too fat. If you're talking about Gogo's shape, or the shapes in my shop (which are similar to my size, not fatter), I completely disagree. My shape is average, compared to other shapes in SL. There are very thin avatars, and there are avatars with a lot more fat/width. My shape is "fat" if you prefer sliders at 0.

From Left to Right: My shape vs. shapes from various shops around SL. These are shapes that were either given with a skin or freebie/dollarbies that I've picked up. Gogo is not "fat" and I've tried really hard over the past 2 years to add more boobs/body fat so that my avatar is not a stick, either. I'm annoyed when people do this… ~.~
