Awesome Sauce

JUST. READ!

(yes, you, too!)

……

Still here? loser….

Flutter Memel of Flowey has caught the building virus and has made a couple of  ueber cute sky boxes. This is one of them”White.Lies” It’s 7×7, so really  fit to be on any plot.

For the decoration I turned to Art Dummy! from Gala Charron and LISP bazaar from Pandora Popstar.

From Art Dummy!: Chalk Dust bed, Sitting Dummy Candle, Standing Dummy Candle, Pandora’s Wooden Legs chair

From LISP Bazaar: Rattan trunk  (with 2 loose, texture change cushions), Message in a Bottle collection, Life is Beautiful molded shelf (with candles and pottery), Nautical Rug, Montmartre white Easel.

Other used items: LP2 flower color 3, Nocc Ivy

New @ Michami June 5 2010, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

It’s no secret that I am totally in love with Milla Michinaga from Michami and when we grow up we’re going to get married and have prim babies :-D. In the meantime I entertain myself playing with her latest release, 3 co-ordinated separates, the Nina capris, Nina crop top and Nina mesh tank. I have combined the tank with the khaki Cafe shorts from Surf Couture (50L$ Friday item).

Other need to knows: skin Pearl from Laqroki, hair Neva by fri.day.

During one of my many attempts to downscale my inventory, I came across this dress again. It has been in there since… well.. I think since September 16, 2006, which is the day after I originally rezzed, and it was kinda old back then already. It has survived every inventory cleaning so far though and I think that it still looks pretty amazing after all this time, right?

Chip Midnight was one of the first designers around, and probably, the first ever to make photoreal skins commercially available to SL residents (many still use his templates for skins). I don’t know if he ever logs in these days, my guess is, he doesn’t because his profile still links back to onrez,  but his shop is around still (charter members got a plot of free land for life) . It is like a step back in time, vendors with models in system hair (he actually still sells some textured system hair models!), skins which now look bad, but at some time were top of the bill (do consider the fantasy skins though, they are still wonderful, though to today’s standard, expensive), some clothing that just makes me smile when I look at it because… well, because it’s just so very 2005…. But among all the fossils of SL, there are also a few gems like this dress. If you like SLvintage, Chip’s shop is definitely worth the TP.

Anyway, I am rambling, lets just jump to the credits:

New @ Truth 100604, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Yesterday there was somewhat of a panic on plurk. Truth hair day… but…. where is the hair??? Oh my, we are so conditioned to Thursday Hairday that people plurk around frantically to see if they can get their weekly fix.

Best proof that regular, scheduled releases work!!

Anyway, today I woke up to an offline from Truth with the wonderful words: Truth Hawks has offered you ‘TRUTH New Release 4 June 2010’ in Second Life. Log in to accept or decline the offer”

Now I am not going to pretend this is as good as early morning sex, but, for your resident hair addict, it gets close. And Mr. Hawks is a top hair crack dealer… he always knows how to make me happy.

This week’s hair clockwise, starting with the updo: Tina, Lourdes and Marni (streaked and non streaked included in the pack)

Colorful


I was not a big fan of bright colors, but I seem to be liking them more and more now, this time I wanted to mention how wonderfully colorful are the new shirts from Reek. Also, one of my favourite hair, from Soap, the hair come with the cap, the cap only is also an option, it is scripted and changes logos on clicking, very interesting options. Finally, I love these fleece pants from zoobong!

Shirt – Right Stripes Tee – Reek
Pants – Gym Fleece – Zoobong
Hair – Billy – Soap
Piercings – Knock Out – Chill – .HoD.

Chrome Byte

Chrome Byte, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

Chrome Byte is the name of this new specialty skin from sachi Vixen of Adam ‘n Eve. Honestly, I want that name for an alt!!

This skin is also available as Chrome Natural (without the chip “shining” through) and also in a gold version.

Fun for styling or RP, or just, because sometimes a silver accessory is just not enough.

Hamlet Au picked up on  sachi’s new release after reading Bettina Tizzy’s tweet about my blog.
