Hey, While i’ve always liked your pics and write-ups, this one has me a bit sad. The title of the post is about boots, and then you proceed to go on about a jacket, showing only one picture of the boots which show nothing about them. for all you can honestly see in the picture, they might as well be just two black prims. some good pictures of the boots showing a side profile to them etc so people can see what they actually look like instead of simply two pics showing off how good you look in those pictures would be much more appreciated. a little blurb out of three paragraphs about the boots does not mean the post should be entitled Coco boots. -Quandri
Once in awhile, I get feedback on JuicyBomb that I completely agree with! You’re totally right Quandri, that was fail on my part to gush about the boots here, then not even show a close-up picture. What can I say? I was trying to do artsy in-world images and my train of thought when I do those are totally different from my regular* posts.
*Regular = boring snapshot on my pose stand with a plain background.
A lot of bloggers do Look of the Day (LoTD) type posts and never show any close-ups but I actually prefer to shoot something plainly rather than do LoTD type posts. I guess I like to mix it up once in awhile, but when I don’t do a close-up, I get totally called out for it! 😛
Doing close-ups with a plain background is faster for me than going in-world and finding a nice place to take photographs. But it just seems that people in SL are constantly praising the blogs that do “such amazing photos” or people who are awesome at Photoshopping that I feel like my blog is um, boring. Well, boring but it gets the job done because I get between 2000-3000 visits daily (and closer to 4000 when I’m bitching at something, lol).
Anyways, Quandri made a very good point about the CoCo Boots. I should have done a close-up photo. I don’t like it when people gush about something and you can barely see it in their photo, and then.. blah, I did it on my own blog.
So here you go, lots of close-ups! I hope these will encourage you to check out the boots in-world, there are demos! And I’m not paid for by CoCo to do this post.. (or given free shoes, sadly *sobs*).
CoCo – Engineer Boots (Black)
CoCo – Over-the-knee Boots (Black)
League has some shorts like that.

I don’t have a link for a picture but the only real difference between the one you have on and the league ones is a little pattern on the back pockets and the League ones have the front pockets hanging out of the bottom of the front. It’s actually a really cute little detail.
Booty shorts…League
I have a friend who only sells on Xstreet/Marketplace. She made these awesome short shorts in blue and black but hasn’t yet set them up for sale on the site. They’re dang cute and nice and short. I took a pic of the ones I bought from her; you can see it here: http://s958.photobucket.com/albums/ae70/Savannah_Humphreys/?action=view¤t=jeanshorts.jpg
IM Bugsy Braveheart if you want to purchase them. She’ll give you a good deal on the set. And if you do decide to IM her, kick her in the butt and tell her to list them already! 🙂
Yep I’d concur on the League recommendation .. heres a link to her Flickr page if you want a preview, they come in a few colors and designs … http://www.flickr.com/photos/leaguesl/4368853350/in/photostream/
I usually wear ones from Worldwide Industries, or Suicidal Unborn .. but I suspect if you want a look similar to the ones you have they are probably to short for you. I tend to go for the butt floss look. >.<
League has nice ones, but Emjay has really cute ones in various styles and colors, quite inexpensive as well.
Tres Blah actually released a super cute pair not long ago.
If you’re going for raw value, check out the jeans at The Plastik. For ~L$200, you’ll get a full set of jeans: basic jeans, ripped jeans (with digigrade and regular prim bottoms), capris (with rolled prim parts), mini skirt, and jean cut-offs (which are booty short style like you specified). Definitely can’t beat that!
I believe I saw something similar at Maitreya yesterday.

Very nice jean shorts and mens and womens jeans
Ditto on the League “Booty Shorts”, but you also might want to check out the “Cootchie Cutters” at Worldwide Industries.
I’m sort of partial to those shorts that Doppleganger released recently for FLF. They are pretty much a perfect length. Not too coochie cutting.
Hi! The top you have on in this post, where is it from? Is it Last Call?
hi Elise, this top is from Truth 🙂
