69 has new hair! I think the textures have been updated because the blondes pack are a bit nicer than before. These two hairstyles were hard to fit but not entirely impossible. Grab a cup of coffee and go slow! 🙂
Chloe is here! Exile has just released this gorgeous skin in 10 sexy makeups and two different brows colors. I’m wearing the Light brows option in Blush tone. I loooooove it. Yes I’m frolicking around naked on La Reve sim (private) I hope my friend Lashy doesn’t mind!!
Hello from the It all starts with a smile sim! I am rocking the new Carmen Midkini from The Secret Store. I’m so delighted by this cheerful banana print, it’s so perfect for summer! This midkini includes a fully customizable HUD to change the ruffles, braces, and belt color. This item is fitted mesh, it’s the best and easiest way to wear mesh clothing. If it’s not fitted mesh, it’s not awesome!
House of Hucci is a new brand that is a collaborative effort between two designers, Raven Callisto and Eboni Khan. The newly formed House of Hucci brand already has an impressive collection of formal and casual gowns, individual casual pieces and tons of glamourous jewelry!!! I am completely impressed with the huge collection of sparkley and dazzling stuff – the brand officially launches this weekend but you can shop now, the sim is open to the public!

The jewelry pieces are amazing – all necklaces includes earrings (sometimes matching bracelets and rings, too). The gorgeous House of Hucci jewelry pieces are unique and lovely, and the sparkling gems are even more beautiful in-world than on these pictures.

House of Hucci can be found on the Penrose sim, along with other fabulous shops!
fri.day group members were given early access to the Friday sim today, but due to some scripting issues with the vendors, the sim is closed again. When the sim re-opens officially tomorrow, check for 3 gift boxes containing basic items like the cami & shorts worn above, a pair of flats, and some bikinis.

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:
Was the anti-AI policy made clear before the purchase?
Was the person in question a store blogger or an event blogger?
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:
Should a customer be banned for using AI on a photo featuring a purchased item?
Should designers disclose AI-related policies before selling items?
What are reasonable boundaries for creators who don’t want their products used with AI?
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.
Hi Gogo.
You are looking smashing!
I know you love a good juicy gossip lollipop more than anyone, so here I go.
I recently had come into contact with a girl named “Tegan” on Second Life. (If you decide to spread my story, anything, I will give you the full name.)
I met this girl while I was at a virtual beach. Of course, sometimes we all love to bust out of our Armidi clothing and show our gorgeous carved Lelutka boobage. I guess this girl was no exception, but she lacked the “Armidi” and “Lelutka” parts. Basically, she looked a bit like a noob, by my standards.
I didn’t think anything of her until she started insulting me.
She kept telling me I was “whining” because I was making comments about lag and how I had crashed fifteen times during the last thirty minutes.
I decided to ignore her a little bit, she was just a noob. I didn’t care much.
Then, I typed to a sandbox to take pictures with my friend.
My friend wanted to send me the photos, and so I told my email address in public chat. Little did I know, this Tegan girl had overheard that I was tping to Skybeam Sandbox, and was lurking underneath, listening to the chat, while I pasted in my email.
I decided to let it go, and I logged off, a happy little camper, to go get some icecream.
Three hours later, still today, I log into my gmail account, which is what I used to set up my business myspace and also, my Second Life.
I looked into my outbox, and there are literally 46 messages (I counted) responding to craigslist ads labeled, “ANAL play for you and I”, “Lonely Mom Seeking Young Female Lover”, etc.
It is a person, saying her name is Tegan, saying she plays the game Second Life, claiming she is on her “roommates email”, and listing at least 12 different AIM accounts to contact her at.
I also have my paypal information and Wells Fargo information set up through that email.
Currently, from paypal purchases to Wells Fargo withdrawals, this girl has taken $10,000 of real, United States Dollars.
I am currently, right now, in the process of contacting the police.
Ami – Once again you demonstrate that the only thing your head is good for is a hat rack.
In your post, you say “Basically, she looked a bit like a noob, by my standards.” This, from an avatar that prances about Second Life in all her demo regallia? You can’t be serious!
You don’t wear radar? You can’t see when someone is within chat distance of you? You call out your e-mail address in publc chat? And from your e-mail address she was able to hack your Paypal and Wells Fargo accounts? And you post here before you contact the Police?
This is an incredible story Ami – Maybe you could sell it to Wired Magazine and make back that 10K in US dollars you say you lost. That you actually expect people to believe your story is another issue all together.
You are in dire need of inpaitent care Ami – and I hope you get some soon.
I am sorry, but in reading your post, I have additional questions.
“I met this girl while I was at a virtual beach”
“Then, I typed to a sandbox to take pictures with my friend.

How could this person track you down? Even if she knew what sandbox you were teleporting to, finding you there would not be easy – we are talking about a sim here, not a 512 parcel. You expect us to believe that this person could pinpoint your exact location within moments?
Millie – sorry about the email earlier! I thought you were directing the email comment at me, since I didn’t recall doing that, but after reading Ami’s comment, it makes so much more sense now, lol.
Wow Ami Great story!! Have you ever thought of being an Author cause boy the stories get better and better, your standards? I don’t think I ever saw you without a demo skin/hair on, thank goodness most of SL does NOT fit your standards.
Because your mind cannot grasp the facts doesn’t mean they aren’t true, you pathetic skanks.
Obviously you haven’t seen my many times, because I am a model and own skins. Yes. And I look better than you in every one. Even if I am in a demo.
So, I understand the digs about my avatar, because its quite obviously jealousy.
But to stalk down my posts and comment on them, well, that is just insane. Please, purchase a life from one of your little virtual noob hangouts and leave mine alone.
Kthnxbaibitch.
LaDonna –
Quite funny you find it hard to locate one person at a sandbox!
It’s not a whole sim, actually. It’s a not-too-large parcel of land surrounded my stores. Its not too hard to cam around and look for a persons avatar. Actually, noobs can do it! Ha!
LaDonna, again, because LaDonna obviously feels the need to investigate every corner of my life, and make a comment about it –
I’ve seen YOUR avatar, darling. And LadyCatherine’s. You stand in no place to make comments about it, unless that comment is praise, saying how incredibly gorgeous I am.
On to the next.
No, I don’t wear radar. I’m using 2.0 and have yet to find my radar button, and FRANKLY, bitch, I didn’t think that this would happen. You lack knowledge of the real world and the virtual world, so please don’t make comments until you’ve got your fugly ass head screwed on right.
Acting like a spoilt know it all,pathetic,girl you might want read back on your rantings and laugh,the only judgemental is the paranoid YOU.
WTG there’s two lives 1st and 2nd you obviously are the one who cannot differ between the two,let alone having to call innocent humans,bitches and skanks,i doubt anyone really cares what you think.
I would assume you are a troubled RL low-life:)) Greetings
Wow Ami…once again you’ve shown yourself up for what you really are. A nasty horrible piece of work.
And honey, you think we “stalk down your posts” to comment on them? LOL! This is a FASHION BLOG, not a place you come to share your crazy weird stories. Get over yourself, and get in touch with a shrink while you’re at it.
Well, do you need photographs?
What the fuck, because its fucking true.
Maybe you don’t understand what its like for someone to steal stuff from you, and the when you try to tell about it, warn people, some
Stupid
Ugly
Cunts

Doesn’t give you any reason to curse,swear and be generally jumped up and nasty towards others,call yourself a human being,yeah right,maybe you will find that a civil attitude will get you heard,grow up!!!Or actually get the faff out of SL if it aggrivates you that much,but on your mental level,understand this NOBODY GIVES A FUCK.And a female who swears is just pathetic call yoursef that? lmao yeah yeah!bah blah blah,droan,moan,i’m Ami and i’m a lil drama queen attention seeking skank.WE ALL IGNORE HER NOW:) isn’t there a MUTE BUTTON.

You are simply amazing.
Not to state the obvious…but maybe you should have thought twice before typing your email address in public chat.
How did she get her passwords? This story sounds odd!
Well, hello drama fest!
Ami – Good luck with that.
Millie – sorry about the email earlier! I thought you were directing the email comment at me, since I didn’t recall doing that, but after reading Ami’s comment, it makes so much more sense now, lol.
Bitch please WTF is this shit.
God Gave us IM so that the entire grid can’t hear us talk in chat. She should investigate it’s wonders.
Wow Ami Great story!! Have you ever thought of being an Author cause boy the stories get better and better, your standards? I don’t think I ever saw you without a demo skin/hair on, thank goodness most of SL does NOT fit your standards.
Blow me, stupid bitches.

Darling Ami
I have many things in life to be grateful for.
My health.
My friends.
and that I am not you.
Ami seriously chill out….this story had no relevance to gogo’s post at all. And I simply don’t believe you. Sorry.
Totally random and completely unnecessary…end of story.
Well, do you need photographs?
What the fuck, because its fucking true.

Any story that begins with
“I know you love a good juicy gossip lollipop more than anyone, so here I go.”
Sounds more like “LOOK AT ME!!!! LOOK AT ME!!!!” than it does “Don’t let this happen to you.”
So don’t go getting all holy here – you were not warning anybody of anything – you were just trying to get someone to pay attention to you.
And by what i have read in the posts here? No one really cares.
