I’ve been asking Minnu for months when “new skins” would be released, and I’m sure I’ve been driving her a bit crazy with it but FINALLY, Lola is completed!! Inside this giant LeLutka makeup compact is Lola, and she’s gorgeous! I love the name, it’s so sexy sounding. Lolaaaa…. Lola Lola!
Here’s a sneak peek of the face. Yes it has layers 2.0 makeups, yes I’m uber excited. I’ll show you guys the rest when soon! You will probably see Lola on other peoples blogs & Flickr if you look around. I love this new face, but can I give up Ife?
LeLutka – Lola (Light tone)
I forgot to mention that I’m also wearing the lipstick 2.o tattoo layer here. LOVE IT! Red lipstick all the tiiiiiiiiiiime.
My shape (current) | My shape (downturned corners/previously) | Frowny Mouth example | Smiley Mouth example
Have you ever looked back at your older shapes and thought, why did I think that looked good!?
I’ve had a couple of those moments throughout the years in SL, but my most recent shape disaster moment came when I realized I didn’t really like the downturned corners on my mouth anymore. I fixed it right away, but I was careful not to make it smiley mouth! I guess I like a neutral expression more than something that looked unhappy or psychotic.
Did you have any shape disasters in SL? What was something that you use to like, but now you don’t?
I woke up late and didn't make it to the Lelutka show, but I am anxiously waiting for the grand re-opening!!! More London skins, here I come! I'm wearing the LondonSunkissed-makeup4b, a slightly darker tone than I normally wear but it's perfect for a beachy look! The hair is 'Erin' from TRUTH and fantastic Stone Bead Choker from Sable Rose by Rosie Barthelmes.
Visit Sable Rose, a new shop to me but their line of necklaces are really cute!
Cajsa Lilliehook started a new site called Blogging Second Life, that lists Second Life blogs (separated by category) and also creator’s profile & store marketplace link.
I think it’s brilliant.
There are lots of blogs written by lovely SL residents (like me, lol) and if you haven’t noticed, there are way more female bloggers than male! WE WIN! This is why there’s an overwhelming number of fashion geared towards female avatars (we shop more, we blog more) and a smaller percentage for male fashion.
Someone asked me where to find male fashion blogs, well here you go. Follow this link, there are at least 20 fashion blogs listed here.
This is a great new resource, so if your link is not listed, go ahead and submit!
DO use this list to discover new awesome blogs DON’T use this list to spam bloggers
I am inspired by Daniel Voyager’s blog post listing his top 10 blog posts and search terms, so I am posting stats for JuicyBomb. WordPress has built-in site stats, so this information is gathered from the stats page of my dashboard.
I’m not surprised to see that there’s a good mix of informative & useful posts and some drama posts that have made it to the top 10! It’s encouraging to see that the top post is the Newbie Style Challenge, which was a really fun challenge. And… you guys love my Windlight tutorial! I promise to upload them some day, I have dozens and dozens that I’ve made for different skins photography indoors and outdoors. I’m inspired by the best, Torley Linden, who has hundreds of Windlight settings available for download!
Here are my top 10 posts of 2010 and top 10 search terms
I wanted to show you my Victorian Linden Home. It’s beautiful, it’s my favorite. I was watching the latest Second Life Concierge and Land User Group meeting, and Izzy Linden mentioned that this is not a popular theme, but I disagree. This is easily in my top two Linden Home themes. I’ve been on this region for over five years, paying for Premium to keep this home, and the coast was absolutely finished in my eyes. It never looked like an unfinished edge. If you look at my photos, you’ll see that it looks complete, well terraformed, and beautifully done.
That’s why it devastates me that Second Life decided to stamp out the new Ridgewood Enclave right in front of my house. Right now it’s only one region away from blocking my waterfront view. I’ve been anxiously watching Ridgewood Enclave regions come online, and so far they’ve gone west, but the moment they finish the region that corners mine, my view will be gone. I took a lot of photos because the Victorian coasts on OG Bellisseria were the best thing the Moles ever made, and nothing since has matched them. It would be such a shame if this gets blocked. Second Life can still fix this by moving the Ridgewood Enclave Canopy region one space west. There’s no reason for it to be pushed up this close to the Victorian coast, ruining the views for everyone. And honestly, as much as I don’t want to see Ridgewood Enclave, maybe they don’t want to see pastel Victorians either.
For now, my view is safe, but when I look off the side of my porch, I see Ridgewood Enclave spreading north like a slow creep, and I know it will eventually erase everything I love about this house. I hope that when Izzy Linden says he empathizes with people whose views get blocked, he’s also thinking about long-time residents like me who have been paying customers from day one of Linden Homes. I’m a huge fan, but if residents can’t trust that finished coasts will stay protected, then what’s the point of Linden Homes? People pay extra for Premium to secure their perfect home, and it’s crushing when that view you chose suddenly disappears.
Wow, hey you look really hot in this. What exactly is different here from Ife again? Seriously, girl, you rock the blonde. Stick to it, no one pulls it off as well as you do. Especially with Minnu. It’s PWN-ilicious. 😛
