Shout out to Kirsten Corleone for making a fabulous rigged mesh tutorial video! I thought I knew everything about editing mesh (and prims) to fit myself, but even I learned something new! Check out the video and her blog, for more information.
Do you already know everything mentioned in this video? If you found it helpful, let me know in the comments!
Summer is almost here, and that means lots of cropped tops and colorful, fun prints. LG Femme has just released a pretty large collection of items that’s perfect for your sumer wardrobe.
I am wearing the adorable Lobster Wrap top in Blue, and pairing it with a pair of new Jeans from Sweetest Goodbye. I can’t get enough of a jeans in SL, they rank very high on my list of “must haves” items. These Jeans comes with sculpted Capri and Skinny cuffs.
Here’s a couple of more casual outfits I created by mixing-and-matching new LG Femme tops with different color jeans.
What I’m Wearing:
Milana – Dunne hair
Laqroki – Linnea (Fair) Light Brows – 01
LG FEMME – Inca shirt (Coral)
LG FEMME – Lobstar Wrap (Blue)
LG FEMME – Cross Top (Mint)
SG – Jeans (05), Jeans (01)
LaGyo – Queen Deer Ring
Mon Tissu – Montsegur Pumps (Black)
As I promised in my last post, I am wearing some new clothing pieces from Tableau Vivant, and they are a little bit on the daring side. A reader pointed out that I did indeed blog about prim v*gina one time, but I am trying to clean up this blog by showing less and leaving more to the imagination.
I just love this Gaveston top from Tableau Vivant, the texture and lace is gorgeous and will probably layer very well over a dark colored tank top if you want a more modest look. I didn’t really like the over-sized sculpted sleeve, as it’s not very pose friendly. I hope they release a sleeveless and more modest version, I would wear it all the time.
I’m pairing this top with the Rhet pants, also from Tableau Vivant. I normally don’t wear long pants with flare legs (it hides shoes) but I’ll make an exception for these, cos they’re so sexy and I love the low waist.
What I’m Wearing:
Maitreya – Lara II (Platinum)
Laqroki – Linnea (Fair) Light Brows – 02
Tableau Vivant – Light&Shadows – Aquamarine
Tableau Vivant – Costume Design – Gaveston Shirt
Tableau Vivant – Rhett Pants
Gos – Pimp Your Pumps (Buckle Ballet)
Welcome to another Previously in Second Life post! Here are some interesting news around the grid you may have missed:
Join the Celoe group in-world to get this new Chelsea dress (in Champagne) for free! Celoe is the new brand from the talented team of LeLutka creators. The new Celoe main store, and also Mon Tissu main store will be housed on the Mayfair sim. I don’t know if any single sim in SL can handle so much talent, but we shall see!
Have you heard of Standard Sizing? Some brands in SL will now create things in Standard Sizes, which is suppose to help people fit mesh better (if you happen to be sized pretty close to these XXS-Large Standard Sizes). I fit the M(edium) from this package pretty well except for some areas (boobs, body) buuuut…… I thought it looked kind of BULKY! So I modified my shape and squeezed into the S(mall). What about you? Which size do you fit with the new Standard Sizes?
Also as a side note…. I don’t really agree that Gogo is M(edium). I’m petiiiiiiiiiiiite!
What I’m Wearing:
AOHARU – Hair Megan02a (Chocolate)
Celoe – Chelsea Dress (Champagne) S
Nardcotix – Esther Vintage Pump (Teal)
LaGyo – Roslyn Necklace
I’m very attached to my Aphotic Gloom eyes (not mesh), but my second favorite, is the Liquid Light Mesh Eyes from Mayfly! These colors aren’t a new release, but I went and added a few more colors to my collection this week. Mayfly eyes are mesh, includes 4 different levels of “Whites” and is scripted to change size.
My friend Aemeth Lysette is participating in the Numberology event! The event started yesterday, so stop by and get her gorgeous Nails HUDs (they work with SLink av mesh hands). You can also get this adorable Sweet Dreams Faun Necklace by Lark at the Funny Puppet Fair!
Aemeth Tie-Dye nails, so pretty!
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Harley (Peach)
Exile – Longest Night
Lark – Sweet Dreams Faun Necklace
Vive Nine – Baby Rib Cropped T (Coral)
BOOM – Feel Free Shorts (Pure)
SLink – Mesh Hands (av)
SLink – Mesh Feet (Rigged) S
Have you seen the new LeLutka EvoX Gaia head? I found this head to be very young-looking compared to Avalon and other heads in the LeLutka lineup. This head is packed with tattoo options to create a fantasy look, or you can wear it as a regular head.
Thank you Gogo!
You can actually “snag” mesh objects in your inventory. I found that it is so much quicker and easier to do than the way that it was shown by Kirsten. All you do is go into your inventory, right click on the item that you are wanting to edit, then click edit. Easy peasy! I don’t have any rigged mesh skirt prims so I don’t know if you can use this method without the need to drag things out to edit them like it was shown in the video. Also, for those that haven’t seen how to select a different layer on the mesh body parts…. Another easy thing to do. So you have your mesh body part selected (body, boobs, butt, etc.), click edit linked, then hold down the CRTL button, then press the comma key until you have selected the layer that you need to edit. You can see what layer you are on by either looking at the texture on the texture tab or under the general tab, looking at the name of the layer. Hope this helps some of you!
Thanks for those extra tips Ruiniel! I am always finding different ways to do things in SL.
