An ever-expanding directory of quality content in Second Life, for the Tasteful Shopper. We cover fashion, places to explore, avatars, furniture & prefabs, and other neat things to have or see, pretty much since the day before yesterday. All on the fly!
The stuff: Hair: Junwave (LGM Jun), Free headband: Miel (Mika Nieuport), Eye patch: Jugoya (D15 Koba), Skin: Infinity (Annyka Bekkers), Roll cake: Hanauta (Hana Melnik), Jacket: Milk Motion (Marie Lauridsen), Tank & Skirt: Cube Sugar (Sayuri Cremorne), Leggings: P-K (Polina Kaestner), Necklace & Sandals: Kookie (Kookie Lemon).
I did not log on with a very particular idea as to what to blog about today but fortunately I had a bunch of stuff backlogged I’d been wanting to cover for about a week or so, and wheee, I think I managed to sort of throw them together.
First off, a few more accessories from +plus, which has a very wide assortment of stylish, flawlessly executed handbags, necklaces, belts, and so on. I’d been postponing going to the shop to procure new things to feature because from the pictures on Helena’s blog, I had assumed I would ruin myself if I rushed there. Well, actually I wouldn’t have! Her items are surprisingly friendly considering the quality of her products, so you don’t have to hold off buying things in several colours to be sure you can match them with your outfit. Another reason to love +plus, that and also Helena Compton is an absolute darling! And believe me, I’m trying to contain myself here, because I already spent most of my afternoon privately gushing to myself over some of my friends.
Now, check those aviators from SteinWerk ! I instantly fell for them, and think they may be the best aviators I have stumbled upon to date, though I’ll have to give Emery’s a try sometime. I asked their creator to give me more of her stuff so I could show off some more items on the blog, so here are also the Scarlet glasses, the Nightstalker leather strap watch, and the Steam Machine, which can also look like you’re carrying a ticking little bomb on your wrist. And yes, I’m getting a kick out of that.
The brown double leather wrist strap is a freebie I just picked up at MM’s, the workmanship on that seems to me equal to everything else covered in this post, and I’m loving it.
Warmest thanks to the couple of awesome creators lately who have been willing to give me some of the items I wanted to cover here!
The stuff: Hair: Roge (Jurian Magic), Skin: Domestic V (Mairead Broek), Glasses & Watches: SteinWerk (Aveline Stein), Earrings & Bag: +plus (Helena Compton), Cigarette: Gentleman (Ralph Dirval), Free leather strap: MM’s (takawo Quan), Sheer Shirt: Ema’s secret (Emanuelle Bury), T-shirt: Little Fish (fionay Dill), Skirt: Bianca Foulon, Pumps: J’s (JB Gazov).
Wheee, I’m battling sleep half an hour more, all because of this sweet, sweet hair just released at Clawtooth by Clawtooth. Pretty good timing actually because I’d also been wanting to show off this skin from Domestic V, as part of a 100 skins pack at 500L, as well as this dress I brought back from my last trip to Emery. The pack, which contains all of the skins created by Mairead Broek this year, including various versions of this crackhead skin gifted in March, was supposed to be removed already, but it’s still around for now.
This exclusive magical skin was a group gift in April. It is luminous, lightly freckled and features natural lips and soft eyebrows, and just begs for cam love!
The stuff: Hair: Lis_Noir (Beatrix Hienrichs), Skin: &bean (Keiko Morigi), Prim cateye lashes: Glow studio (Jocelyn Anatine), Cigarette: Gentleman (Ralph Dirval), Earrings & Bags: +plus (Helena Compton), Shirt, Bra & Skirt: Emery (sunami Beck), Garters & Tights: Intimizio (Adian Armidi), Boots: Stiletto Moody.
Soon to be released at Shade Throne, these super fun “Pills” sunglasses, and the equally cool “Big ass rope” necklace. These shades and the previously released “Gaga” ones were inspired from glasses already existing in real life, but most of Ms. Undo Hermano’s other awesometastic designs are creations of her own mind, some of which can be ogled at here.
The other stuff: No longer available hair: Coif (Paulie Tamale), Skin: Infinity (Annyka Bekkers), Wet T-shirt: Naka-na (Naiman Broome), Fringe skirt: Milk Motion (Marie Lauridsen), Permanently free subscrib-o-matic pumps: Maitreya (Onyx LeShelle).
More Paper Couture love, i.e. clothes and hair.
I happened upon Chance Greatrex when visiting Paper Couture to check out the new line, and the outfits we both picked matched so well that we ran off to take some pics of ourselves. I am not altogether familiar with Mr Greatrex’s usual style but I like how he instantly caught on the Frida spirit ! The new line is too abundant with beautiful pieces to be covered in one go — what else would you expect from the Lu sisters, anyway — but here are a few that have already caught my eye.
I’m really loving the 60’s Acapulco jetsetters looks!
Head to toe shot of Chance by himself.
Another darling hair from Junwave released today. Can’t have enough of it with textures like that. Also, this new shirt free in the Pink Outfitters subscrib-o-matic. This green is pretty damn near edible! Aaand finally bothered to have a look at those books and fountain pen attachments I picked up for free at Tekuteku, the other day. Cuuute.
Other stuff: Skirt: &bean (Keiko Morigi), Tube socks: Rummage (Tray Calamari), Jellies: Fashionably Dead (Toast Bard).
A series of 8 new make-ups in 4 tones and 2 eyebrow colours has just been released at Bebae, in continuation of Torie Senne’s current line of hand-drawn skins featuring sweet faces, smooth cheeks and delicated shadowed, toned bodies. Loved the bellybutton especially! See samples of all 8 make-ups in the cinnamon tone here, and a peek of the full body here. From nude, to classic red lips or funky colour combinations, this line can cover your many daily styles.
… is the word that just popped into my head, for no particular reason. Let’s be random, it’s still Sunday.
