p.s. It's Labor Day weekend in the U.S. I know you guys wanna shop, shop, shoppppppp…. Happy Labor Day!
So many events going on right now! If you haven’t been to Summer Beauty Festival or Culture Shock, come check it out! Both are opened, and filled with tons of goodies.
I’ve been dying to show you guys this new umbrella set from LISP (at Collabor88). The Rainy Days Umbrella and Sunny Days Parasol (not worn here) are texture-changing and comes with 6 different poses.
How cute!
What I’m Wearing:
Friday – Tatum 2 (Happy Blond)
Mon Tissu – Ruffled Shell (Sheer) Yellow
G-Field – Frill Shorts (Ivory) @ Culture Shock
Gos – Rigged Wellington
LISP – Rainy Days Umbrella @ Collabor88
Pink Fuel – Yum Bubblegum!
The Maitreya Lara body is nearly a decade old and it’s still going strong. Despite other bodies on the grid looking quite good, I’m kind of loyal to the Maitreya body because I like the body shape and the HUD. If you own the Lara body, wear the HUD and hit the redelivery button to get the free update.
So what’s all the rage about LaraX? My first impression is that I really like the new smaller shoulders. The other updates are not that noticeable to me, so even though Maitreya says to consider this a whole new body, it’s basically the same body with some tweaks. However, the change is enough that most items created for Lara will no longer fit. You can always switch back and forth between the two body versions as needed.
The mesh of the LaraX body is also smoother and more defined. The geometry has a better flow, resulting in a rounder and softer body. LaraX has:
- Rounder wrists and ankles
- Thinner wrists
- Reshaped shoulders
- More defined groin area
- Reshaped arms
Because of these changes to the weights and to the mesh, content made for Lara will most often not fit LaraX. LaraX should be considered a new body, requiring content that has been made in her specific size and with her specific weights.
We will keep offering the original Lara body (V5.3) alongside the LaraX body. They will come together in the package. So that you can switch between them according to your needs.

What’s included in the Maitreya Mesh Body LaraX package? A lot! I was pleasantly surprised to find mesh lingerie from Addams, Blueberry, and Velour included. There are also body parts mods included for Appliers and Bakes on Mesh (BoM).
I snuck in early to snap some pictures so you’ll know what to expect tomorrow, when Skin Fair opens! My first impression is that this skin fair is extremely well organized, the layout is GREAT. Shops are arranged in a square, you can easily walk from one level to another and not miss any shops along the way.
There’s even a teleport board upon landing so you can visit just the shops you want if you’re in a hurry. I can’t wait for the official opening.. this will be a good one! 🙂

It’s official! SL is now officially no longer an “adults only” zone, as we welcome 16 and 17 year-olds from the Teen Grid. I know a lot of designers are looking forward to this, viewing teens as a fresh group of shoppers, so here’s my question for anyone who is a teen and reading this blog, how do you fund your SL?

You guys will never guess what I’m blogging in the picture above ^
It’s not clothes or hair or skin!
It’s the new Malt Cinch Buckle Belt in Noire. I hardly ever wear sculpted belts, but this belt is so easy to wear cos its worn higher on the torso and not right at the waist. I didn’t have to resize at all to fit, which is always a bonus 🙂
What I’m Wearing:
Exile – Venus (Dusk)
Zaara – Trishna Print Skirt (Aqua)
Zaara – Yauvani Tank (Electric)
Malt – Cinch Buckle Belt (Noire)
Naith Smit – Rock ‘n’ Rolla Chain
I don’t typically wear denim on denim outfits, but this Ammy Set from Art&Ko looks absolutely stunning! I’m dressed head to toe in denim, even my shoes. You can find this outfit at the latest round of Anthology.
To complete the look, I’m pairing this outfit with a pair of Mini Wings from 2AM. Full disclosure: I won these in a giveaway on Flickr, but I would have purchased them regardless. They are part of the Happy Weekend sale, so you can still grab them at a discounted price. I truly adore how tiny these wings are, and they come with charming realistic animations. Plus, their small size makes them versatile enough to wear anywhere!
I also took a trip to Jeju Island, inspired by a real-life island in South Korea. It’s a beautiful region, perfect for photographers seeking stunning landscapes.
