Allow me to whine for a bit here, cos my hard drive failed this weekend and I had to get a new one. I recovered all of my personal files, but lost everything else (programs, settings). I thought everything was alright, but my new drive started to give some errors too, even with nothing installed on it. I can’t wait to save up for this sexy Apple iMac cos I heard that Macs are magical and never have issues! 😀
I logged into SL cos I’m so behind on all the fabulous new releases this weekend!
If you haven’t heard, Luxuria relaunched this weekend with fabulous new lingerie, corsets, stockings, and tattoo makeup! As I’ve said many times before, texture clothing, especially under-garments is still desired on the grid! Roslin Petion does an amazing job with texturing and seams, which I’ve heard is no easy task!

SLink released an update for the SLink Avatar Enhancement Hands & Barefeet (for men too!). Usually I try to blog about a new release/extensive update, but I don’t think I could do a better post than what Berry has already covered, so go read all about the latest SLink AE Updates here.

A new round of My Attic started! The theme is Flowers in My Attic, which reminds me of the Flowers In The Attic book by V.C. Andrews. Did you ever read these books? Find the Sugar High hair that I’m wearing from Exile, new Flair nails, and ABC White Roses Topiary from Ohmai at My Attic!
I’m laying on the fabulous Haran Console from Lark, get it at The Neighborhood.
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Harley (Peach)
Exile – Sugar High
Luxuria – Amalie (Sage Green)
Ingenue – Delia Heels
&
Lark – Haran Console
MudHoney – Addison Chandelier (Yellow)
Ohmai – White Roses Topiary
Very pretty. Can you tell me what hair gogo is wearing in the pics?
Truth – Maxine (Chestnut)
so i brought this skin. love the face but i need surgery on my leg now, i have the worst blue veins ever, above the knee and on the back of the legs
anyone else have this issue?
The skins are wonderful! I love FLUSH!! <3 Looking forward to Le Cirque this weekend!
I really like the abs on this skin, they are very subtle but still muscular. More and more thats something I look for in skins is body definition .. theres tons of pretty faces out there but bodies are surprisingly uncommon when it comes to my taste.
Tried the demos and like how it fits my shape too, and will probably be picking up the darkest makeup (top row, second from the left). I like the dark eye pale lip one but it has the same problem alot of skins for me do, the lips are to pink. I love skins with pale lips but I prefer a more neutral tone and unfortunately it seems the way skin designers are going now are pinker hues and they just don’t work on me, being a bit gothy in my dress style.
Oh woe is me! I always wait with baited breath for Gogo’s new skin releases and up until recently have always been pleasantly surprised even if I didn’t purchase.
But… I am at a loss at the moment.
Ka Skins – Since the release of the first Bardot skin “Sally” which was superb and I still wear at times, the rest of the releases have really been lacking in the eye area. Something not right with the eyes especially when the make-up is light. The white dot (signature mark?) just does not work on all styles and the eye cut outs are getting cruder by the release….apologies from a big fan…
Laqroki…Adore Laq skins but they are all soooo twee and they all look the same now… Just a rehash and seem to be getting simpler by the release..When you have released as many skins as Laq you cannot keep using the same templates without getting boring…
Tuli ….Eva is probably the closest to perfection but even the designer re-issued V2 after a few days due to compalints of shinyness..V2 not much better inworld.
Gogo’s favourite Lelutka… Great skins but you cant get the right makeup with the right skin tone. Each one is different Aaarrg!
My favourite skin at the moment is Gwen at Dutch Touch but even that one has a wonderful ‘duck mouth’ pout which needs loads of tweaking to get right! (the same goes for all Dutch Touch designs) Cute, grumpy or just plain odd….
Having been in Sl for four years now I can tell you that the skins available by our top designers are fab, at least compared to how skins used to be and I feel a bit mean bringing all these points up. But, I seem to be spending a lot of money and not getting it right. Why are designers sticking to the same old thing even if it doesn’t work…
I understand that they all need their ‘signature look’ but more often than not their older work seems to stand out far more, even if less sophisitcated, than their new.
Too much worrying about the brand methinks. Yes there are new kids on the block coming up, but it takes years to get to where these girls are. I am in awe of their work and commitment to the cause, I just wish they would stand back and maybe take a risk or two..
Pleased to get that off my chest. Have a great weekend all!
