The mystery of the Fishy Strawberry lives on! You guys have such fabulous (and funny) answers, I thoroughly enjoyed reading all the responses. Alas, I had to pick just five winners, so congratulations! I sent the gift card this morning, so be sure to check your inventory! Merry Christmas!

mon tissu is a collaboration between Emma Gilmour (Surf Co) & Juliette Westerburg (Tres Blah), but you’ll know them as Elie Spot and Anouk Spot under this new brand.
I had the pleasure of visiting the new Lula sim a few days ago, and it is very beautiful, exactly like you would expect from a sim with a pretty name. I loved the small French village feel with colorful buildings surrounded by the lush Green countryside.
Here are some basic pieces you’ll find from mon tissu; they can be mixed-and-match easily and they’re incredibly girlie and casual. I predict that I’ll wear these jeans often, as they go with everything and there’s plenty of frilly tops to choose from at mon tissu.
1. mon tissu – Party Dress (Hunter)
2. mon tissu – Denim 1929 Cigarette (Light Gray)
mon tissu – So Boho Blouse (Pink)
3. mon tissu – Denim 1929 Cigarette (Original)
mon tissu – Prudence Gardigan (Yellow)
mon tissu – Provence Riding Boots (Chestnut)
4. mon tissu – Denim 1929 Cigarette (Ink)
mon tissu – Joli Beaded Tunic (Light Gray)
mon tissu – Provence Riding Boots (Gray)
5. mon tissu – Park Avenue Top (White)
mon tissue – Pretty Pleats SKirt (Sepia)
mon tissu – Provence Riding Boots (Chestnut)
mon tissu – Wool-Lined Deerstalker (Brown)
mon tissu – Provence Riding Boots (All 6 colors) includes alpha & invisiprim version
I can’t wait to put together an outfit and try to do some fashion shots on Lula (if I can get in, I hear the sim is incredibly busy right now).

Linden Lab launched the new username registration thing today and now you don’t need to choose a last name to have an avatar in Second Life anymore.
Register your new single name here
Someone grabbed Gogo and Gogolita before I could (sadface!!) but that’s okay because my friend Melanie grabbed Juicy and JuicyBomb for me!! These are the official new username avatars for Juicy brand, Juicy sim(s) and this website. YAY.YAY.YAY.YAY!
When I tried to use search and typed in “Juicy” — the newly created avatar comes up first, then my region. Before, region name had priority over everything else. I would suggest that people at least register their brand name, to be more visible in search.
And whoever has Gogo/Gogolita you can give it to me if you want 🙂 LOL!
* Btw, I did not register BetterThanYou, that was just an example.
MALT Fashions has such cute casual clothing but the "After 5ive" line of dresses are my favorite. I was a MALT virgin up until today, since I have never even heard of the brand before. When I got there, of course I had to tp my friend Torie and for some reason we thought it was a good idea to buy matching dresses and take pictures 😛
…and wear matching hair and skin!
We kinda failed at modeling the dress so off to the photo machine at Juicy for some crazy pictures!
How does this thing work? Being the nice girl that I am, I’m showing Torie how to use page up/page down LOL
Sexy MALT dresses! We’re both wearing the Marilyn dress, ETD ‘Elizabeth’ hair, Digit Darkes’ Messina heels on me and Maitreya’s on Torie.
See? Having a blast….. (ignore Torie’s petrified face, she’s just faking it!)
… Really!
Tp to Malt Fashions

A few days ago, Tuli released the Tuli Hope (Gothic) skins, and they have dark brows which goes perfectly with dark hair. But where are the goth skins for people that like wearing light hair (like me)? I mentioned this to Tuli and she created the Tuli Hope (Ivory) skins and they're yummy. The makeups are brighter & sexier.. imo!
Join the Tuli Update Group to get this Tuli Hope (Ivory) pris skin for free!
Tp to Tuli's Main Store
What I'm Wearing:
Tuli – Hope (Ivory) Skins
Exile – Aphrodite (Arctic) hair
Digit Darkes – Affair Slip Dress (Black)
Maitreya – Verve (Red) Pumps
FAB Design has cute fun styles, and they’re all perfect for summer.
I *LOVE* this outfit!! Could it be any pinker?!!! <3<3 I think I’m channeling my inner Britney here (before she went crazy…)
***NOTE*** I’m a bad fashionista! So apparently I had forgotten to take off an underpants layer I had on. Please ignore the white layer underneath these shorts 😛
[FAB Design – Sunny | Mirai Style – Romi (with hat) hair | Juicy – Slingbacks (Strawberry) | :69: – Necklace & Bracelet (free in shop)]
[FAB Design – Daily | Mirai Style – Miho hair | Juicy – Slingbacks (Apple)]
This outfit reminds me of an Italian guy on a gondolier, so I searched google for a picture and found this!
The boy equivalent of this outfit can be found at SF Design, who knew? LOL
I attended today’s Zoom meeting between Linden Lab and content creators/bloggers. The focus was on content theft in Second Life, and I will not bore you with all the details. You can read a recap of the meeting by Salt Peppermint. It appears that Linden Lab will soon revise their Terms of Service to include harsher penalties for any resident caught stealing content. Such penalties may include banning the offending account and all associated alt accounts, removing all their content from the grid, and potentially pursuing legal action.
Some of the meeting was dedicated to marketing. If any content creators wish to collaborate with Linden Lab by offering perks to residents, they should reach out. If you have an idea that could attract new residents to Second Life or help retain them once they join, Linden Lab is eager to hear about it. They mentioned that MadPea had approached them, but did not disclose whether they are compensating MadPea for providing their games for free to residents or if exposure is considered sufficient payment.
Regarding other marketing plans, Linden Lab is still assessing the return on investment for their marketing initiatives. They want to ensure that their spending to attract new residents brings in the right demographic—the residents who are willing to spend money. I believe Brad Oberwager (Executive Chairman of Linden Lab) referred to them as “monetarily valuable” residents. Essentially, Second Life aims to attract individuals who join, purchase premium memberships, acquire land, buy items, and continue this cycle. When I first joined the game, I was intrigued by the potential to earn money, but I quickly discovered that my true passion lay in dressing up my pixel doll. I believe the demographic that Second Life wants to target includes young, tech-savvy individuals who enjoy cozy dress-up games. While Second Life can be challenging, it is not difficult for those who learn quickly.
I left this meeting with the impression that Second Life creators have many ideas—such as a creator verification program—which could make the platform unwelcoming to new content creators or those who wish to create as a hobby rather than as a business. The beauty of Second Life is that anyone can create and sell anything, and implementing a verification system (like a gold star) could divide the community between verified and unverified creators.
I look forward to attending future Linden meetings and listening to fellow residents express their ideas and concerns. I believe Linden Lab faces a challenging road ahead, as marketing this game and achieving growth are not metrics that can be measured instantly.
If you are reading this blog post and are not yet playing Second Life, I encourage you to come and check it out! You can earn money here, and you can also be anything you wish to be.
I was so surprised when I logged on today! Thank you so much and merry Christmas! 😀
