Getting Burned By Friends

There are some people in Second Life that have that creative spark that makes me so happy to know them. Amadeo Dubratt is one such person, he is endlessly creative and so very sweet, I will admit to having a bit of a friend-crush on him. He sent me over some of his latest releases, and I had to show you why he makes me smile so. Not only are his Nail Polish appliers fabulous, like this brand new Ama. Aloha set, made especially for the The Aloha Fair 2014 which opened today, but he is very gifty, and has put out a great Ama. Sandy Feet Slink foot applier for all of you to grab up too. Just take a look at how he burned me but good, and he can burn you and all your mesh bits just as well with his new Ama. Sunburned set. It is a full body tattoo layer burn in two extremes (I chose the Full Lobster) for various different 'clothed' parts. I went with the Bikini burn, but there are bare and even shorts options in the pack. Available now exclusively at The Aloha Fair 2014, the set comes with appliers for all your mesh body parts (hands, feet, bewbs and azz) and full bodies (wowmeh and physique), and also includes non-tattoo system layer options as well. It is really well done, and I think I can say I have rocked this look in my real life and once was enough to keep me out of the sun forever. Which is why it's wonderful to fry up my avatar for fun, no worries about sun damage here, just some hilarious photo ops! Thanks sweet Mr. Dubratt for the ouch free fun of getting burned but good!

Wild Kingdom

One thing has become abundantly clear to me since my return to Second Life many months ago. I am a sucker for Gacha anything. It would be sad if it wasn't for all the wonderful items I am now happily hording in my inventory. Today, I took a visit to a new event, the Wild Things Summer Gacha Event. Oh there is so much wonderful at this event, I can hardly handle it. Too much to show off in one post, so to start, here is my adorable new friend from FRESH, the Pogi.  Isn't it just "Squee" worthy! While he surfed the trees and came back to my arms, I got a chance to play with another great item from the event, this sweet Anachron (Redux!) Wild Thing Gacha Phone. It's a little different from most phones I have, as it has a heap of cute built in animations, and all you have to do is wear it and click away. 

In this "I work at the local Zoo" look, I am also showing off a new favorite wig from TRUTH HAIR, one of the most recent releases called Xantheanne.  Look closely, because I am giving you an awesome sneak peak of one of the most amazing necklaces, coming soon, to the Tales of Fantasy Event on August 10th/2014. The [Fetch] Birna Necklace is a stunning huge wooden and metal statement necklace, perfect for both high fashion and role-play, or in a Safari Chic look, like this one. I will show it off again when the event rolls around, for now you can just drool and mark your calendars.

FFL - Wander Your Own Path

With only ONE DAY LEFT to get yourself to Fashion For Life and shop for heaps of Exclusive Items while donating to Relay For Life of Second Life at the same time, this will be my last post for the 2014 event.  Despite my focus on the amazing fashions and accessories available at this year's event, the cause has never been far from my heart.  Second Life is a 'Game' to many people, or at the very least, a pleasant distraction and escape from the every day grind. But it can be so much more than that when we come together as a community and spend our Linden Dollars for a purpose. The purpose in this case is to provide much needed funding to the American Cancer Society, which has many projects underway, including the funding of Cancer Research. 

Whether you choose to give in-world, at event like Fashion For Life, or donate directly to a charity of your choice, know that you are what makes the difference between a successful event and one that falls short. Please make sure you visit the event before it closes on June the 21st, and spend a little good will, buy something great or just donate directly at a kiosk. Every single L$ counts. Perfect examples of items you don't want to miss out on are this adorable Legal Insanity party dress, and sweet Nailpolish HUDs and GACHA Prizes from Frogstar. 

Below you will find all the shopping details, including the teleport to mainstore locations. To get a TAXI directly to the store at the Fashion For Life event, click on the Fashion For Life link after the item name/description so those lindens can really add up as donations to Relay For Life of Second Life. Happy Shopping!

FFL - Getting Really Steamed

I don't get the opportunity to role-play in Second Life as much as I would wish to, but today brought the opportunity to really get a little Steamed. Steamed as in Steam Punk, and this absolutely brilliant spot-on Neo-Victorian look from :: PurpleMoon ::. It is one of the Fashion for Life Exclusives, with 100% of it's purchase price going as a donation to Relay for Life of Second Life.  It is incredibly detailed, fully mesh in only 2 pieces (it also includes a pair of boots), and sexy as heck.  I paired it with another FFL treasure, this amazing ring from VINTAGE JEWELS, also in a Steam Punk style with gears aplenty. This look is an absolute instant favorite, paired with the new Birdie wig from TRUTH HAIR, and my favorite - TESLA - Ziggy2 Boots, I felt fully prepared to travel through time and explore a little. A visit to New Babbage - The Steampunk City brought so much fun to this shoot, it is a wonderful place to visit and you can rez your own poses and pose stands.

Good Ship Lollipop

I channel my inner Shirley Temple and pull a giddy Good Ship Lollipop  with a little help from some great new Sari-Sari poses, available exclusively at Pose Fair 2014. With the help of great D!va Hair and The Secret Store fashions, I hit the mark with geeky joy. These pose sets, just $100L each for a set of 6, just can't help but make you feel Happy and Playful. There are more images of these pose sets on my flickr stream, simply too fun to resist showing off. Thank-you Shirley Temple for your endlessly sweet inspirations, you are missed (April 23, 1928 - February 10, 2014). Remember, Pose Fair 2014 runs up until May 5th, 2014, so there is still time to get there and get pose joy for yourself.
