Chillin at the Beach!

Both on the Beach

Good furniture, and I mean “Good” furniture is hard to find in SL, while some creators really put a lot of effort and creativity in their work, mostly you find the same pre-fab sculpts, textured badly and put together, no offense to anyone. NOTsoBAD has been one of my favourite stores for quite some time, be it builds or furniture, the quality has been exceptional and the designs, exquisite.

Today I wanted to review one of the new releases, ASPEN set, by NOTsoBAD. The set contains 2 deck chairs, 1 table and 1 parasol. They are all scripted for color changes and pose adjustment, a wide variety of colors are available from dark to light and bright shades. The texturing on the furniture is very fine, the sculpts are nicely finished and hold out even when zoomed out. The shadow work is nice and provides some nice added eye-candy, yet In my personal opinion I find the shadows a tad bit too sharp. The table in the set holds a magazine, some much needed sun-screen and a drink! The set is perfect for setting up outside and catch some sun with some pretty gals!

I absolutely love working with Grazia, she is gorgeous, has a great sense of style and well..she is gorgeous! She helped me so much with this review, the location is her private hideout, where she landscapes often and creates some beautiful scenes, she setup the whole scene for this shoot and well, helped me with her gorgeous presence!

Phew…the sun and well, the hotness Grazia is radiating, made me sweat, glad im not wearing much!

Them Apples, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Just a quickie to share Reek’s latest release and Flowey’s lovely new skybox “Hide me in your pocket” with you.

Flowey’s Flutter Memel is a sweetheart. She’s one of my favorite (but currently not adding new) posemakers, and recently she caught the building virus and now she makes lovely, dreamy skyboxes. Riq Graves, from Reek is my go to creator for quirky well made stuffs. Last weekend he released these cowboy hats with 2 different hairstyles for the ladies (wearing Savannah) and also a hat only version which leaves you more freedom to mod your hair of choice to fit the hat. Also he made these saddle stools, with 6 animations, from cute and casual, to hilarious.

Other need to knows: skin Breeze by Curio, jeans by Atomic, tank by Niniko, boots by Hoorenbeek, scarf by Maitreya (xmas pressie).

Blogger Challenge: Barerose 2010, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz. Photo edited in PS

I was over at Barerose earlier and seriously… June Dion from BareRose is one of the all time most fabulous, consistent and creative content creators of SecondLife, who just is underexposed on the blogs. Maybe because she’s such a constant factor, that people tend to focus more on the novelties, but anyway, I got fascinated all over again with the incredible variety of fashion, fantasy, historical and just plain outrageous outfits, all under 200L$ for multiple colors.

Last year our resident vampire fashionisto, Winter Jefferson, started a BareRose appreciation week, which was a huge success. I wouldn’t go that far, but this week, I’d love to see a lot of you going crazy creative with BareRose outfits!

I have picked the Chimera Huntress outfit for this picture, combined with PXL Creations’s Efe skin and L.Fauna’s red Allure eyes.

I’m looking forward to see your entries. Please leave me a link in the comments, so that I can see yours too!!!

❤ Grazia

Rock Me

Rock Me
“Looking like a Rock star” is often a very nice compliment, yet open to so many different interpretations of the “look” itself. When I decided, I wanted to be a Rockstar today, I wanted to look different yet stand out. Some great Soap hair, a nice Ce Cubic long coat coupled with the Rockstar pants at Zoobong and some great poses and a guitar prop from Glitterati did the trick for me, I am wearing a tattoo from my own store again, only because I felt it was warranted on merit! Hope you all like it too!
How to become a Rockstar:

Jacket – Ce Cubic : Coat Long & Short
Pants – Zoobong : Rockstar Pants (Red)
Hair – Soap : Fury (Red/Black)
Glasses – Reek : Park Shades
Pose & Prop – Glitterati : Rockstar M
Tattoo – HUZ : Horn-Eye
Shoes – Akeyo : Lowtop Chucks

Congratulations, Luca!! (Little RL message… as a reminder that I need to call a special, old friend today)

These weeks are hectic, but it’s still fun to throw an outfit together. I must admit, I am very happy with Hunain being on a (blog) roll right now, no pun intended. His contributions challenge me to be creative and to look into new stuff. Like for today’s look, it probably would have taken me like uhm… forever, to discover the awesome (unisex) pants at Zoobong, or the amazing and oh so affordable stuff from HoC.

Anyway, let’s get down to business, shall we?

Hair: Gritty Kitty Butters (blonde)
Skin: Laqroki Pearl 09 (fair)
Shape: custom by me, not available

Tattoo: HUZ tats Wave
Bikini: BOOM infinity bikini thick stripes cool
Necklace: Mandala Hannya silver double
Top: Surf Couture Coastal tank white
Pants: Zoobong rokstar pants yellow (including prim buckle)
Shoes: Orange Creations Mercy magenta

Glasses:  Aviator style glasses by HOC

Enough!

Enough is Enough!
According to me, nothing says “Sexy” like great jeans! I openly admit how much I like Zoobong for their pants, the “Cali” jeans from Zoobong really does it for me, I like it so much, can’t get it off me! We all know how great the stuff at Sey is, I am sporting a very nice scarf from there along with some absolutely cute Gritty Kitty hair and wicked HoD piercings. The Tattoo I have on is my own, a new release at HUZ (Self Promotion?), the shoes are from HOC, these are possibly the best shoes you will get for this price! Finally, the location is the nicely designed Primitive City Sim, sporting some really nice items of their own!
Details:
Hair – Gritty Kitty : Flynn – Liquorice
Scarf – Sey : Afghan Stole
Pants – Zoobong : Cali Jeans (Aqua)
Tattoo – HUZ : Veritas
Piercings – .HoD. : Fusion v.2 – Smite
Shoes – HOC Industries : Easy Striders – Viewer 2.0 Shoes
Location – Primitive City
