It has been too long since I last made a shape! I made this shape for the LeLutka May Bento Mesh Head. I have made a handful of shapes for Simone, Chloe, and Spencer mesh heads from LeLutka – so I will probably not make any more shapes for those faces. I will try to make shapes for the ones I have not, such as May, Greer, Cate, and Bianca. I wear Chloe a lot, but they’re really all gorgeous when paired with the right skin.
Buy the Juicy Sara shape on Marketplace or in my store.
SLink – Kiera, Genevief, Leona II (True Red)
I am pretty obsessed with Red hair shades today, thankfully, these three new SLink styles are fantastic in any color. Genevief is my favorite style, and it happens to be the donation style as well, so this is a bonus!

My friends are laughing at me for being obsessed with cheap skins but I am totally obsessed with Mother Goose this week. This Bini skin is just $50L for a set of 4! I read this hot tip on Banana Vella’s blog, so ty Banana! I ran to Mother Goose to pick this up because I didn’t see it when I was purchasing Josephine a few days ago.

I love my outfit today, it’s so sassy! I do however have a gripe. This necklace I’m wearing is from MANDALA. For some reason it is full-bright only and of course, the necklace is no mod 🙁 I’ve tried to contact the owner via notecard to get a non full-bright version and they’re not responding to me. Screw you MANDALA! I’ve always thought their jewelry was perfect (the other necklace I have isn’t full-bright) so this is highly disappointing.
What I’m Wearing:
Kyoot – Beneath My Bones (Stumblebum Exclusive)
Decoy – Dana 76 Jeans (Black)
MANDANA – Soul2 Necklace & Bracelet
January is all about cozy vibes and bodysuits. I tried on numerous bodysuits before settling on this adorable Ramona bodysuit and matching cardi from Littlefox. Everyone seems to be embracing bodysuits this month, but the reason I chose this one over the others is because I like the cleavage, textures, and colors it offers.
I love Rosé’s twin buns hairstyle from the APT music video. So when I saw that S-Club released the Pinky hairstyle, clearly inspired by Rosé, I immediately bought it. Although S-Club’s prices are on the higher side, at L$999 for fatpacks, I know I will wear this hairstyle frequently. If you do not opt for a fatpack at S-Club, unfortunately, you won’t get access to all of the hairstyle options or accessories.
This week I realized that I have matured because I no longer feel rage about anything in Second Life. X (Twitter forever) is all about AI. Meanwhile, on Bluesky, Second Life residents are making lists and expressing their concerns about AI usage. There are many issues to be upset about in life, but AI is not one of them for me. You may choose to be upset if you wish, but many brands in Second Life are employing AI to edit their photos and videos. They are also utilizing AI to generate textures and sell “art” at events. While I do not necessarily endorse these practices, I recognize that I cannot control other SL residents, nor can anyone halt progress. AI is innovative and here to stay. It can be integrated into our workflow without eliciting accusations of thievery. If you choose to boycott certain brands, I suggest doing so quietly. I myself boycott several brands for various reasons, but I do not feel the need to publicize my decisions.
Although I consider AI a fun tool to experiment with, and I have used it in the past to edit a photo or two, most of my images come directly from Second Life. It is quite evident that many skin designers are now using AI to enhance their skin advertisements. Proceed with caution, and be sure to demo everything before making a purchase.
What are your thoughts on brands that utilize AI to enhance their product photos or sell AI-generated textures? Let me know in the comments!

The House of Rfyre released Dysis recently, a magnificent all black ensemble with pieces you can mix-and-match to create a unique and moody look. I love the oversize cape with sculpted puffy sleeves. I’m pairing this with J’s Goth Boots (Lace-up version) and Curio Psychobilly hair. LOVE this hair <333
There’s also a men’s version of the Dysis outfit, and I found this yummilicious picture on the House of Rfyre official website. Mmmmmmm hot model! DROOLS :P~~
