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!
Ever since I began this blog I always intended in the back of my mind to make a post showing all my favourite toys from RC Cluster, but my RC folder was so big (it’d now cover half of my screen if I wanted to visualise it all in my inventory) that I always found the task too daunting, and I would postpone it, postpone it some more, until it never got done. Well now, RC Cluster is closing ! So, I shook myself into action and finally did my post, although sadly it’ll be a goodbye post.
Random Person from Really Good Builds does some really good, fun avatars. And they’re cheap ! 300L each only, and most of them come really well animated. Beginning with the Tired Coffee Cup which moves waddling around, revolving around itself with an accompanying sound that is really rather goofy. I love the walk on Mr Spudsington, as well. And the legs on the crab all move individually as you walk, in a really realistic fashion. I don’t think the alien comes with any animation overriders, but then I think it’s even best worn with your own AO set since it has a pretty much human shape anyway. Only the Burger Cake at the bottom is not an avatar; it’s not meant to be worn but when you rez it and touch it, it serves out a slice like so, that you can hold and eat.
Random Person’s builds are awesome and what I love about them is how they really exploit well the potential for fun and creativity in SL. I hope they keep doing more like that !
One Eleven opened hours ago and if you were just blissfully unaware of it or simply absent, then you might have been spared the worst of the earlier crush and stress of trying to teleport in fast enough to snatch some of the items that were created by a selection of your favourite designers exclusively for this event. Still, worry not, you may yet have a lot of time to grab a number of those limited editions !
The event runs for a little over a month, and at this point, only a very small dent has been made in most of the items count (there’s some hot items that might well be gone within the day, however). Check out the One Eleven blog for samples of what you can find at the event, and here is the location slurl.

I was going to just blog this cute, fun post-it that I got from the marketplace but when I jumped on my posing stand I liked the pose I landed on so much I had to put together a wee lil’ look to justify posting at least one picture of it.
If you’re looking for something to do this week-end, this might interest you: the Franklyn Wescott Enigma is an intriguing grid-wide game that will commence today and run for two weeks.
For more information, check out the website and join the in-world group dedicated to it. There will be prizes !
