Backdrop City

I found a very nice photography sim recently. 

At Backdrop City, you can choose from the various scenes, backgrounds and objects to perfectly tell the story through your camera. Best of all, you are given rezzed right if you join their inworld group. The group is FREE and there is no lag at the sim. :)

Using Anypose and Lumipro, I managed to do a few pictures at Backdrop City. Below is the one I did yesterday with the pose I have created using Anypose.

PurpleMoon Creations closing down sales!

It came as a surprise when Poulet announced that PurpleMoon Creations,a One-Stop shopping for any occasion, will be closed soon due to her RL commitment. PM has been one of my favourite stores for its glamorous, haute couture formal and casual outfits and accessories. Though a little sad, but I guess RL always comes first. We are not sure when PM will be officially closed but for now, everything in the store is going at 50L! It is a good chance to spur on all your favourite pieces now! 

Clad in Sascha'sDesigns new release suitable for this Spring season, I am heading down to PurpleMoon after a cup of sake.... come with me?

Another new release from Sascha's Designs which you can only get it from Swank. The unique part of this outfit is that it comes with 3 different sleeves via a hud. 

Though this Lois outfit is tailored especially for Maiyatra, Slink, Tonic, Belleza, Fitmesh, I found that the Slink cut is also a perfect fit for my new AltamuraBa's body. How wonderful :D. Check out the February round of Swank before it ends.

Secret Love Song

Found a pretty little glittering dress from Sascha's Designs that comes in 6 colours and is specially tailored for Maitreya, Slink, Belleza, Tonic, Ebody and Fitmesh. To create the chic look, I found a perfect hair from .Shi. It comes in two styles and a 5x hair colours texture change via HuD and a 5x hair-base color change via Omega Appliers.

Both dress and hair are so versatile that you can easily wear them on your various mesh heads and bodies...!

SCALA™ - YinYang Event July Post 3

The Scala YinYang event will be up and running till July 31. If you have not been there, you really must. 

I am wearing the Chic Julya Dress by Zickenkiste which comes in yellow and blue. It is on standard sizing but it fits my Maitreya body after some tweaking of my shape and adjusting of the ALPHA HUD.

The jewellery that I used to style this elegant chic dress is from the Cassiopeia Gown pack from JUMO.  Not sure if it is still available at the main store but it is surely worth a visit to check out their full range of elegant collections.

SCALA™ - YinYang Event July Post 1

The amazing sales event at SCALA™ - YinYang Event begins July 15 featuring many exclusive designers' items.  

For my first post, I am dressed in this sassy midriff dress from Black Rose that comes with a 16 textures hud. It is made to fit most mesh bodies such as Belleza, Slink, Maitreya and TMP. 

To keep the styling simple and yet stylish, I chose to wear just a bold make up from Alma to compliment the dress. This make up which is compatible with Catwa and Lelutka heads comes with 4 lipsticks inspired by the Moon's colours and 4 by the Sun's colours.  Each lipstick also has a matching eyeshadow. You can always mix and match the different eyeshadows with your favourite lipstick. 

For a final touch, a matching nail applier from Livia that comes with 8 nail art designs for Maitreya, Slink, Omega and Vista Bento's hands completes the look for the day.

Debbie Jasper and I recently opened our Pose Talk store, both inworld and on the Marketplace, and while we work on expanding our selection of poses, it gives me a chance to blog our creations as well. We make editorial poses, high fashion poses and custom poses. Please feel free to stop by our store, leave us a message if you have a request or question. You can find our contact signs in our cafe.

For this shot, I'm wearing the Denim Zip Up Jacket from Gabriel. A really nice quality textured open jacket as we are used to from Gabriel. You have the option of wearing the t-shirt or not. The jacket comes in a few different colors at the store. I chose the white jacket that includes a black and white shirt under the jacket. The sling bag is all so included and wraps really nice around the body.

For jeans I'm wearing Zips n Pockets from JZ. Extremely well textured with incredible minute details. They are available for Adam, Aesthetic, Slink, TMP and standard body. At the time of this blog was written it was available at the Chapter Four event. But you can also grab them from the JZ store.

My trusty SLink sneakers are from ILLI. They are HUD controlled and giving you countless combinations.
