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!
I went blonde again for two of the latest hairstyles released at LeLutka, Addison and Rain. The textures on these are great, with the roots especially. I might have preferred to get my usual brown packs but I don’t think you could see a colour variation as much on there. I might still get the browns for later; I love the airy flow on the sculpt work. And then I also went back to a sweet look with Dutch Touch‘s Mensje.

New stuff coming at Kari ! Long, long promised, it’s all cute, fun and really well done. Starting with the specs which are colour-change and which I loved, though perhaps I did regret a little the absence of brown as one of the colour options. But they’re definitely going to be my new favourite geeky glasses. Next up is the wristwatch, of which I didn’t take a close enough picture, but it looks really good up close. Among my other instant favourites were the newstand and the robots. One of them speaks French and I had to laugh when I first heard its love declarations. To see more of what’s new, check out Menno Ophelia’s website.

I have not worn Dutch Touch skins in a while, because though I find them a really unique and extraordinary blend of hand-drawn and realism, the faces often tend to be too perfect, and also a little too mature for me. But not so with the newly released Mensje and Megan faces ! They are youthful, softer and have some elements of quirkiness about them that makes each face stand out.

I’ve had many bits & bobs accumulating for months now because I’ve not really felt like doing a big décor post lately. But, enough ! I’ll at least air some of it out now, throw it together in a jumble even for just a snap or two, because I wanted to show this really, really pretty gift just out at Kari, for Christmas. Oh, and I apologise in advance for anymore gifts that may no longer be available…

I’ve been looking forward to the opening of Lamb Bellic and Julliette Westerburg’s sim Lula for a long time (or Belmar as it was called then), ever since hearing that Turnip Sorbet was building a French village for them. It has been long in the making and so well worth the wait. I was excited for it, and the result goes way beyond my expectations ! So much attention to detail, down to the custom made fields, stone walls, shutters, etc…

These afros from DUBOO come in 7 different versions, each one more cute than the others, and this was my favourite. Also, they are for Project Themeory, so unless I’m wrong, they cost 75L only ! They should be out next Saturday, and the theme will be, I believe, DISCO !

Here comes my last furniture spam of the day, I promise. And it starts with beautiful lamps from Phi. 150L, no mod/no copy.
Ishi I didn’t know and I think it has pretty awesome stuff and there are going to be so many more good things to come from it in the future, I’m sure. I got pretty enthusiastic today about their cottage. There was no demo, but the owner, Butterfli Summers, was kind enough to rezz a copy so I could look. It is pretty primmy but really detailed, and if you don’t have to count your prims, you might very well fall in love with it. It is so cute and charming. There are recesses perfect to place a little bed or a rug or cushions on and dream inside, while looking out the window… Butterfli also has the best pricing system as well. Her prefabs (she has two so far) cost about 1L per prim ! So this cottage is only 850L for, that’s right, 837 prims. But that means she has another build, a skybox, really cheap for sale next to it too !
Trash Wahwah, from the blog “Blah to wah“, has put out some really cute things of his own for sale, and this is his ottoman, I love the colours !
This table I made ! And I’m selling it at one of the stands at ALBERO, too. There are 9 colours, 75L each, and there’s a texture-change version too that costs 325L. The menu is slightly cumbersome to use, I’ll admit, but I’m hoping to replace it as soon as the texture-change script I got gets an upgrade. The tables are no-mod but I included three sizes. They’re kinda like stools in proportion. I had started to make those a couple of days ago and I kind of put them out on an impulse during the night and I didn’t even have time to think of a proper brand name. I didn’t want to be lame and sell them as “Lili’s tables”, though, so “North West” will do for now.
