I missed the LeLutka Ultra fashion show yesterday, but I heard it was fantastic. These are some of the outfits featured in the show. I’m a huge fan of the more casual outfits, but I’m not sure I like the single prim sculpted long gown. I like my gowns to have movement, but that’s not possible yet since we don’t have flexible sculpts.
If you went to the LeLutka show, what were your favorite outfits? Would you wear these outfits out of the box or mix-and-match?
Shout out to Hamlet’s Patreon for consistently recapping exciting Second Life news before everyone else. I suppose that is what being an insider is all about. I recall that years ago, Second Life was already running inside a browser through third-party services, so I have wondered why it took Linden Lab so long to offer this feature. Clearly, I am not a fan of the current mobile app. It is far too small anyway, even if it becomes functional someday. For users with high-end computers, running Second Life in a browser may not be as exciting; however, for those with low-end computers, it will be a game changer. Finally being able to run Second Life and see it as it is meant to be viewed, likely using cloud hardware, I assume? I’m not particularly technical, but many services now exist that allow users to access a higher-end computer remotely to play games or use 3D software.
Why is playing Second Life in your browser better than the mobile app? For one, whoever Second Life is trying to attract would likely prefer to experience the world on a much larger screen. During the brief few minutes that I tried SL in my browser, I found that it rendered everything quite well. Having access to the full Second Life viewer UI is essential. I can change my clothes, edit items, and perform any actions I normally would in the SL viewer.
I already see Second Life on ultra settings, so I wonder if someone who typically runs on low or mid settings will notice an improvement when viewing Second Life in high to ultra settings. If you are one of those users, please log in and let me know if you observe any enhancements.
As we begin a new year, I predict that this feature will eventually be mostly free for Premium Plus Second Life accounts, with limited usage for others. Perhaps they will even offer different plans for usage similar to streaming services. I hope that Premium Plus users receive it for free, as they should replace Speedlight access with this feature.
Will this attract new or returning users? Yes, people prefer ease of access. The mobile app is not user-friendly. This is straightforward. Will this benefit current residents? Yes, it is ideal for a quick login session to accomplish whatever tasks you need without the hassle of installing a viewer. You could likely use it on your $200 Chromebook if that is all you have.
Will this work on your mobile devices? No, it might function on an iPad, but when I logged into SL on my phone, I could not view the entire screen or access any navigation tools or my on-screen keyboard.

Truth hair – Micah, Tallulah, Paloma, and Harper in Almond texture.
New Truth hair!! I’m liking this week’s release a lot, and enjoying all the new hair textures. You can find these new styles and more on the new Truth Hair sim.
I was digging around in my skins folder and found a stray skin simply labeled ‘Maya Prototype’ – it is one of the skins that Desidelia Vella is working on! This skin will be a new skin line at Free Speerit, whenever she gets around to completing it. It’s one of my favorite faces — so I’m hoping to see it released soon!
Ohhh…… you have my encouragement to bug Desidelia about it too! Send her IM’s tell her to H-U-R-R-Y!
What I’m Wearing:
Free Speerit – Maya Prototype Skin (not yet)

Leverocci is a new-to-me brand that recently caught my attention with the release of their latest mesh Pacaii Pumps. I went to their main store to check it out, and noticed that there’s already a small collection of shoes, hair, and clothing for sale, along with a section for Beauty (skins?) that has yet to be filled.
As you can see the display and presentation is nice, it even has an “Armidi” feel to it. I inspected a couple of the prims (display rack, lights) and some prims are made by former Armidi alts. At first I thought perhaps they could be Armidi alts, but after I demoed some products and looked around at the ads and display, I didn’t think this was the work of former Armidi designers cos it doesn’t have the same “look”. I asked Jin Elfan (Leverocci designer) why some prims in her shop belong to Armidi alts and why her land is on Barcola, and she said they’re just friends. I normally don’t believe it when people say this, but I believe her, cos the style just isn’t the same as Armidi style.
These mesh Paccai Pumps from Leverocci are pretty but I found them a lil’ difficult to fit. It took a bit of patience with re-sizing and moving the shoe around until the alpha was no longer visible. The HUD is easy to use, very intuitive but there’s an extra click to ‘to apply the tint’ that made the tinting process so much longer. Unlike other shoe HUDs that shows changes immediately when you click around the color picker, this HUD requires you to click “appy” before any change is made. The extra click is kind of a pain, but I managed to get a decent match 🙂
I purchased the Seam Detail Mini Dress (in Silver) from Leverocci to match the shoes, and I was kind of disappointed that it came with a prim crotch. The display rack showed a dress with flawless (no) seams, but when this dress is worn, the prim texture & the dress texture did not line up very well at all for me. It may work better on someone thinner or smaller (not sure).
I didn’t buy any hair, but I demo’d some and they looked alright. There wasn’t a nice a Platinum Blonde hair color, so I passed on it. Leverocci is a brand to watch, cos they’ve shown that they’re able to create a range of products and hopefully, it will get better with more releases. Right now I feel that their shoes may be their best product, the rest of the things (clothes, hair) are just alright, until they update their textures and work on incorporating more mesh sculpts into the clothing.

FAB Design has cute fun styles, and they’re all perfect for summer.
I *LOVE* this outfit!! Could it be any pinker?!!! <3<3 I think I’m channeling my inner Britney here (before she went crazy…)
***NOTE*** I’m a bad fashionista! So apparently I had forgotten to take off an underpants layer I had on. Please ignore the white layer underneath these shorts 😛

This outfit reminds me of an Italian guy on a gondolier, so I searched google for a picture and found this!
The boy equivalent of this outfit can be found at SF Design, who knew? LOL
Happy Valentine’s Day! Spring has arrived on Aurelias, and it’s just the perfect weather for a stroll around town. When I’m not wearing casual outfits, I love to dress up in frilly Victorian-style looks, or my interpretation of it.
I had a grand time today riding the Linden Love Train and meeting some Lindens and Moles at Isle of View. This year is my first time attending the Dunk & Hug a Linden & Mole Event, and I was disappointed that there were only a few Lindens in attendance. It was definitely exciting to pose for a photo with the most popular Linden of all time, Patch Linden. I wanted to meet some of my favorite Lindens on the Concierge team, but they were probably busy working.
