Bringing out the good stuff in Second Life®: fashion, hot spots, freebies, etc.

I loooove those pants, and got them in almost every colour.

The other day I said somewhere I would never be a blonde, so I had to go and contradict myself, of course.

I stood around kMadd a while the other day, and cammed in on this shop, Kal Rau. How come didn’t I know of it! True, it only does mens’ clothes, but they’re quality. I love, love it. Photosourced, but not harshly photorealistic, not emo, not rent boy sexy… perfection. The only other shop I’m aware of that does menswear like this is Redgrave, and I’m just over the moon at having stumbled by it. I know, small things.

Also, happened upon the news today that Coke Dreadlow from UBU had come out with canvas shoes and they’re awesome, as usual. A godsend with their customising menu at this time, even, because I’d been looking for some versatile everyday shoes that I could match easily, without having to buy a super expensive pack. So, yay, score, those are keepers.

A lot of new stuff released at various places, today: Sand Shack Surf co., Emery, Mimikri and bijou. The green skirt is actually not part of the new batch of releases at Emery but this is what I felt like wearing. Also, this cute lil’ backpack I’ve had my eye on for some time, but eventually forgot to grab after not logging on for a while, from HOC Industries, otherwise known as this amazing store with the awesome sculpted stuff for under 30L  or free (and they don’t have just clothes). Ooh, and again, if you don’t read the asides, P-K is closing soon and there’s a clearance sale going on at both these locations: Cupcake and Rue d’Antibes.

Jennie is the latest face released at Laqroki. And oh my god, hello cuteness! Here she is in the peach tone, and she is absolutely adorable, comes with blonde or brown eyebrows, and in eight make-ups: four dainty, natural ones, and four with slightly more forward lip shades for your dressed-up moods. Here’s for a close-up!

Today, featuring Manatee McMillan!

When I saw the über cute vendor poster she made yesterday for Gabby Lime’s AO set called ‘Weirdo’, I impulsively asked for the pictures so that I could post them here. These poses can be found at [twee], where Manatee also sells her cute, girly, whimsical dresses as seen previously blogged by Marni, Chance and Anya. I used to shop there when I was practically still a newbie, way before it had clothing of any kind, except for glasses, if that counts. It was silly fun stuff that was to be found there essentially, like Gabby’s wheelchair which is the default one I take out when I, erm, need one, or her ‘Free Hugs’ sign, that is also one of my favourite random props. I’m normally not the fan type, but I can remember [twee] as being one of the first rare eccentric shops I knew of for a long time that made irrelevant, amusing stuff just for the heck of it. Then it kind of all but fell off the radar for almost two years… and it’s fun to cross paths again, in person!

The stuff: Hair: Zero Style (Rei Gully), Skin: Curio (Gala Phoenix), Hairbow: Rachel Breaker, Jacket: &bean (Keiko Morigi), Dress: Thimbles (Apatia Hammerer), Turtleneck: Hal*Hina (Hinano Runo), Tights: Veschi (Alla Ruff), Shoes: Royal Blue (Marni Grut).

The stuff: Hat with hair & flip-flops: DP Yum-yum (toraji Voom), Skin: Curio (Gala Phoenix), Glasses: Pink Fuel (Mochi Milena), Dress: Shirohato (maruko05 Aya), Canvas bag with callas: LaGyo (Gyorgyna Larnia).

Like every creator with a modicum of talent, and Shade Throne owner has tooons, Undo Hermano has fallen prey to evil, mean copybotting, and as a result is currently going through the ‘I want to close down and quit’ phase. Please, help ease her hurt by buying plenty of her gorgeous stuff at her mainstore.

The stuff: Hair: Uncleweb (Din Raymaker), Skin: D-Skin (DynamiteTanaka Payne), Straw hat: Ordinary (shin Mathilde), Glasses: LeLutka (Thora Charron), Earrings & Free bangles: Shade Throne (Undo Hermano), Scarf: The Dogs (JDDM Catteneo), Tank: Michami (Milla Michinaga), Skirt: The Closet (bambi63 Rehula), Toeless ankle boots: Pretties (Jori Watler).
