I’ve always said that I hate teases, especially people who show things I cannot purchase right away, so forgive me everyone for teasing you with LeLutka’s upcoming Gem skin. Yep, she has a name now!
This skin is one of two new faces that will be released at LeLutka. I’ll try to show the other skin, Kit, in an upcoming post soon.
Magoa has a cute new The Brigadier Dress out and it’s adorable! Two different skirt styles are included with the dress, so you can wear it as a mini-dress or with a short poofy skirt.
I’m wearing the newest release from Exile for TDR. This is the Elena style in Exclusive TDR colors (not sold in the main store later). For a mere $60L per pack of 4 colors, it’s irresistible.
What I’m Wearing:
LeLutka – Gem/Golden-makeup 7 (coming soon)
Exile – Elena (Earth Mix)
Magoa – The Brigadier Dress
Donna Flora – Monica jewelry set
LeLutka – Saffron Pumps (Neutral Black)
I asked AI to generate a photo of a town with stores and cute cottages
I went to the SL22B Meet the Lindens meeting today, and right at the start, Patch Linden dropped a bombshell. He announced a new land product coming soon to Second Life called Ridgewood Enclave. He didn’t say it’s part of Bellisseria, just that it’s going to be separate and its own thing. That makes me think it might be a bunch of mini region clusters they can launch as needed.
Ridgewood Enclave will have both homes and commercial parcels. The plan is to release the homes first, then the commercial spots later. I’m so ready! Take my money! I don’t even have an in-world store in Second Life right now, but I still want to make a little office or something cute like that.
There was also a quick update that more Linden Home themes are on the way, a theme for Premium Plus and another one for all 3 subscription levels.
Another bombshell is that Second Life is not selling any Premium Lifetime subscriptions this year, which is kind of a bummer. Even though I said what I said in my last post, I know some people were really looking forward to that.
After that first question, I kind of blacked out. My brain was stuck on one thing: Commercial-themed land is coming soon!
Dear Melanie, you were the best friend that anyone could have asked for in SL. Rest in peace, I miss you so much already.
She passed away after a brief battle with cancer. I’m still in shock by this sudden loss, so I don’t really have much to say right now. We’ve been friends for more than 8 years, so knowing that she’s gone, is extremely difficult to process.
If you knew Melanie Kidd in SL and want to share a happy memory, leave a comment below.
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.
I had a different look in mind for this week’s Bubblegum Weekend post, but once I tried on this new Eve hairstyle from Wasabi Pills, I knew had to create a Mermaid look! The beads, and string are color-changing so you can create lots of cute combos to match your outfit. I chose to wear the Aquatic hair color, cos it just pops against my light colored Lumina Nymph outfit from Evie’s Closet.
I am wearing soft Vintage-inspired colors today, cos Pink & Brown goes perfectly well together.
These new Golden Life Sunglasses from Magic Nook are Ayumi Cassini’s very first mesh item, and they’re so adorable! Each pair of glasses is scripted to change 5 frame colors, 5 lenses, and you can also adjust the glow and opacity levels. I’m wearing the Pink color from the Pastel glasses.
Monso has new My Fabric Oxford shoes! A Texture Changer HUD is included, and is packed with tons of fabrics & colors, so you can customize and wear ’em with everything.
What I’m Wearing:
Truth – Froukje (Swedish)
Monso – My Tied Bratop (Pink)
Hucci – Shoshanna Denim S (Starfish)
Magic Nook – Golden Life Sunglasses (Pastel)
Monso – My Fabric Oxford
&
TokiD – Francis Lights (Small)
I am so getting that hair! Not just for Marianne but the alt will get a treat, lol. The Dressing Room/+Blue is as popular now as when they started, I am never alone there even when I log in afternoon European time and the new items have been up over a week.
I haven’t bought the hair yet, but I guess that you click on it and get a menu to make the bow visible/invisible. Or you can make a copy of the hair, and edit it. Like this tutorial: http://www.inaea.org/post/2009/05/28/Second-Life-building-tips-e28094-4-Edit-linked-parts.aspx When you have selected just the bow parts, go to texture and click it. You get up a new window of your inventory and type in transparent in the search, then you use the default transparent texture from your inventory. This will make the bow totally transparent. Remember to ALWAYS MAKE A COPY FIRST, because you will mess it up first time you try.
Oh my gooooodddd……. *dies*!

And Gogo, you don’t show short hair so often… Can’t you have a post about shorter hairs? I like boy short styles and unisex hair.
LOVE this. Cannot wait for that skin to come out, its stunning. I just bought the hair but I’m a total nub.. how did you manage to get the bow off?

Is this skin available yet, since it’s been a few months? D: I can’t seem to find it anywhere….
Nevermind~ I found it. D: <3
Sorry for the problems! >< So, one question.. Do they offer any kind of cleavage or cleavage enhancer with their skins?
