This is a really nice fitting dress from the MM board at TRS Designs.  It’s available for all of April!

It comes in standard sizes, plus fitmesh sizes for classic, Belleza, Maitreya, Physique, and Hourglass.  The belt is part of the texture, but is very nicely done!


Open Collar

I put up a post a couple of days ago that linked to The Temple of the Collar.  Someone asked me if I used RLV because of the link, and yes, both Aeon and I use the Open Collar scripts, but not in the necklace I was wearing.  Rather, I took the script set and put it in our rings.

As Aeon made our rings, I had to understand how the scripts worked and how make an attachment to place the scripts in. This is a quick tutorial on how to do that with your own objects.

Firstly, you need to obtain the scripts.  They are available at The Temple of the Collar for free.  The object you get is a very plain collar called “OpenCollar Six”, and as you will see, it’s constructed exactly the same as what I will show you below.  Don’t panic!  There are quite a few scripts in there and you will have to use “edit linked” and move them to your inventory.

Next, you need to create a linkset with six prims.  For nearly everything you could wear, five spheres at their smallest size will do just nicely as we are going to make them transparent anyway (at least for the ring.  If you have an attachment with at least six linked parts, , that’s all you need, visible or not).

Here’s a photo with the ring and five sphere’s rezzed beside it…

Each of the spheres needs to be named in the edit window’s general tab.  The names must be exactly right for the scripts to work.

Name the spheres from left to right:

  • Settings
  • Animator
  • Authorizer
  • Dialog
  • RLV

Now, from your inventory, you need to place scripts, notecards, and animations into each of the spheres, and the ring.

Here’s a photo for how each object’s contents should look, starting with the ring, and then followed by the spheres in the same order as above.  Note for the Animator, the contents are not all contained in the photo of the window.  Just drop the notecard and two scripts you can see in the photo, and all the animations from OpenCollar, into this sphere.

I can now link everything together.  Make sure you select the object with all the scripts (the ring, in my case) as the root of the linkset!  Reset the scripts in the object, and if everything has worked ok, you should get a message that says “RLV ready!”

Now you can position the spheres and make them transparent.  I just selected the root object (the ring), copied its position, and pasted the position into each of the linked spheres to position them all with the same center.

And that’s it!  Take the object into your inventory and wear for your personalized RLV enabled attachment!

 


Sensuous lace

Light as a sunbeam, soft as a feather, a caress of lace and angel’s wings… Carrie’s Lingerie brings you Sensuous Silks, a beautiful little set of applier lingerie and silks that’s simply angelic.

I added my new favourite feathered wings from Bare Rose.  B-Wings are bento-enabled, and have the most amazing bird-wing like fluttering!  They’re full mesh, so they have proper three-dimensional structure: they’re not flat flexi-prims.  They’re GORGEOUS, and they come with a small flapping AO hud.

Oh, and one other lovely — I just discovered that my favourite hair stylist, Calico, re-released many of their recent (past year or so) hair styles with an improved colour HUD that features their older shades!  I get my light ginger again!  Yay!

Sensuous Silks is available in six lovely pastel shades, and comes with an additional modesty version.  No, I didn’t show that, what, me modest?

Mahalo my friends!  A hui hou!

 


Birdy Blue

While I was running around checking MM boards yesterday, my letter came up on a Lucky Letter board twice in a row!  This pretty little applier and prim dress was the first of them 🙂

The top and pants are on system underwear layers, and there is an Omega applier too.  The prim skirt doesn’t have a resizer, but it’s modify, so if you need to, you can adjust the size to fit you.

This color happens to be one of my favourites as it suits my hair so well.  Pinks and reds?  Noooo.  Blues, purples, and greens?  Yes please!


Indira’s light

Bee and Solas at Silvan Moon Designs bring us a new wave of fashion that I’ll show over the next couple of weeks.  Today is Indira’s Light, an elegant little mesh gown in four colours.

Indira’s Light comes in SLink Physique and Maitreya Lara fitmesh, and consists of two fitmesh pieces, a dress and coat piece (both shown).  There are flexi bits for a little swirl as you walk and dance, and two decorative mesh pieces at the belly and for the neck.  They’re extraordinarily elegant, although the neck piece looks like it might be a little pokey.  🙂

Stop by Silvan Moon Designs and take a look!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 


Rebel

SL is liberating in some ways.  I have no tattoos in RL and I doubt if I would ever get one.  I do have a really good friend who got a large one (think playing card size) on her inner wrist when I would have thought all thoughts of tattoos were left behind in her teens or early twenties, but it did have very special meaning to her.

Having said that, I’ve collected a couple of tattoos in SL and I occasionally wear them to the beach or a special event (such as, you guessed it, a “Best in Tattoos” competition).  I even have made some that are available in our store.

I realized I hadn’t taken any pictures of them for the blog (other than the angel wings and the hip tattoo), and as a dutiful reporter of all things you can wear in SL, here are some photos of one I recently picked up from a midnight mania board 🙂

This tattoo is on upper system tattoo layers and comes with appliers for Omega and TMP in dark, medium (which I’m wearing), and light.  The artwork is very good, and the shading, particularly on the hands and under the arms, is superb.  If the creator is not a real life tattoo artist, I’ll be surprised.

The above photo has a tiny retouch to hide the join between my hand and arm, but normally, you can’t see it in world.

And again, the shading on the back is excellent.


Life’s a beach

This cute little trikini is a group gift from Scandalize.  Scandalize is L$100 to join, but this swimsuit alone has to be worth that price!

The size is Maitreya Lara fitmesh only!  So make sure you have Lara before running off to the store and paying your join-up fee!

A simple sea-themed necklace and bracelet compliment this nicely.

 


Rainbow Rave

How about some rainbow colors and a bikini?!  All set for a rave!  I hope they have glow-y necklaces at the event!

The rainbow leopard print is in system and appliers.  And the bikini comes in standard sizes plus fitmesh for Freya, Isis, Physique and has a two color HUD, this pattern plus a plain lime green.

My tail is from Psychotic Neko, and I’m still convinced it’s the most versatile tail in all of SL!  It has a staggering range of textures, colors, and glow options, and different parts of the tail can be set to any combination you like.

  • Tattoo: Rainbow Leopard by Catseye
  • Body: Lara by Maitreya
  • Hands and feet: Slink
  • Lipstick: Marcia Blues by F&TJ (no longer available)
  • Bikini: Festival Bikini II / Peacock by Mon Cheri
  • Hair: Nyanotech Hair [Type B] – Cyaolick V3 by Curious Kitties
  • Tail: Extreme Neko Tail – Corset by Psychotic Neko
  • Necklace: Long Stone Necklace 1 by Meva

 


Scandale

Hello lovelies, today I have a little mini and jacket to show off!

This is a complete outfit, and includes the lace jacket, the dress, the heels, and the leg straps.  It also includes the necklace and a lip/ear chain which I’ve chosen not to wear as it’s no modify, and doesn’t fit my face.

The jacket is fitmesh and comes in one-size-fits-all.  The dress comes in fitmesh sizes for eBody, Lara, Hourglass, and Physique, and two fitmesh sizes for classic avatars, large and small.

As I couldn’t wear the piecing in the pack, I added some from my jewelry box 🙂


Relay for Life magic

A spring evening, a glimmer in the moonlight, a glimpse of something magical…. Carrie’s Lingerie offers Dreamy in lime, complete with lingerie, wings, and makeup as an exclusive supporting Relay for Life!

Some matching makeup?  Dreamy includes eyeshadow and lippy, and it works so well with the ensemble.

I’ve added the Forest Edge mask from Spyralle and a beautiful pendant from EarthStones here.

Carrie’s mainstay has been in standard layer and applier items, and Carrie does it to good effect.  skin-tight clothing, things that should look painted on work so very well!  Add in some flexi gauzy panels and we’ve got something beautiful going on. Now… if you want something a little racier,  Carrie’s Lingerie includes two options in Dreamy: the opaque butterfly top and panty shown above… or a very lacy one shown below.

Best of all, Dreamy is one of three outfits offered by Carrie’s Lingerie for Relay for Life.  Proceeds go to the fund, so please stop by and help out the cause, and get yourself a little treat in the bargain.

And those stars?  Those are my falling stars from Blue’s Fantasy!  They’re in the inworld store, so check them out!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!
