I went to Coney Island by myself! Usually I love having a whole sim to myself, but I think this sim is haunted. It was creepy being alone, wish you guys were here! My look today was more Wintery, but I changed my shoes at the last-minute, so it has more of an Autumn vibe. I love this LUCK sweater from Emery, it does look cozy!
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel Skin
Truth hair – Katya
Emery – Sweater Luck Blue (S)
Monso – My First Jeans (Deep Blue) S
Ingenue – Pickford Heels (Cherry)
Flair – Fingernails Applier SLink A/E – Set 12
Amitomo – Watch C White (L)
The only thing on my calendar this weekend is the Spoonful of Sugar Festival. This event raises money for MSF/Doctors Without Borders, and I always admire the designers who donate their time to causes in Second Life, especially the smaller or lesser-known charities. Every year I look forward to SOS because some of my favorite creators are part of it.
This year it feels like a lot of people might be skipping the festival. The Seraphim mention didn’t include a gallery, and even SOS’s own website doesn’t have one. That made shopping a little tricky, but I went straight to the brands I love such as Izzie’s and Alaskametro and found some great things. There’s even a gacha area if that’s your thing.
Pro tip: Keep an eye out for a bowl of sugar if you want to grab some L$20 bargains from participating brands.
Izzie’s – Age Yourself (BoM Layers) – Left: Bare skin | Right: With face wrinkles added
One of the highlights for me was Izzie’s new Age Yourself set. Wrinkles and aging looks seem to be getting more popular in Second Life, and honestly, she’s scary good at transforming skins. The set comes in 50%, 70%, and 100% opacity layers so you can blend the wrinkles with your current skin.
I also picked up the new Soft Brows from Alaskametro. I never use the brows that come with a skin, so I’m always hunting for new ones. These are the perfect thickness, and they looked great when I tried them on. The only thing I wish is that they came with a HUD so I could play around with the opacity. I like layering BoM brows under LeLutka HD brows. On the left you can see the light colored brows, and on the right the tinted ones. You lose a bit of detail when tinting, but it’s fabulous that the option is included so you can get the exact shade you want.
Check out the SOS Festival, show your favorite brands some love, and support a good cause while you shop.
This gorgeous new Chanise dress from Compulsion is so sexy! I love style & lace, especially the backside, it’s so well done and fits perfectly. The fatpack includes a HUD to change color, but you can also buy individual colors too.
KoiKoi is the new footwear brand from Eku Zhong, whom you may know from Culprit and a few other projects on the grid! The gorgeous Gloss Pumps include a HUD to change the Trim, Shoe, and Heel, so you can mix-and-match to create your own unique pair! I think the heel shape is gorgeous on these, very well-balanced.
My look today is based on my current tv show obsession: Downton Abbey! I love their clothes and hairstyles, but it’s very hard to find something new in SL (in mesh) that fits the time period. I didn’t feel like wearing a long mesh skirt (hate them), so I wore the Secretary Skirt from Leverocci. It’s too short and tight for “Downton” but that’s okay, this look is inspired by, not an exact replica! 🙂
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Kumi (Peach) Pure (bwnbrow/crease)
Truth – Lavinia (Swedish)
Mon Tissu – Longline Blouse (White)
Leverocci – Secretary Skirt (S) Meringue
G-Field – Flower Pumps Eve (Cream)
LaGyo – Cherub Necklace & Ring
The Secret Store – Tiny Satchel (Scarlet)
These new ✿ cheLLe ✿ Tropical eyeshadows goes so well with Bubblegum colored hair. I can’t wait to do a bunch of looks using the different colors from this pack.

Hi Caramia,
The beanie is attached to the hair, and includes a texture-change HUD.

Perhaps 🙂 It’s a new WIP of Sora — already released in a makeup I think!
Aw, very nice 🙂 Mochi trikes again! <3
