City Lights

Hey, Whit?  If you’re out there, I still think of you every time I post a video to go with a post.  🙂  Some appropriate music, courtesy of Annie Lennox:




Gazing out above the city streets, the glitter of lights…. a different kind of beauty than the shining stars on a moonless night.  A million lights, out there unseen a million lives, a million stories, each one shining bright in its own way.  A million sequins sparkling in the velvet black, bright in a neon glow.

Aloha kākou, my friends.  You may know how much I like the amazing textures that Ally Adventure creates for their fashions.  Demetra is a two-piece top-and-skirt outfit that is available in two different textures, a lighter glitter sequins with gold accents and a darker glitter sequins version with silvery accents.  I opted for the light/gold one.

Demetra is available in fitmesh for all of the major mesh bodies plus five standard rigged mesh sizes.  Ally Adventure appears to no longer have an in-world store, but is still actively producing new clothing and can be found on Marketplace with demos for all their items.  You should definitely pick up the free demo to see how it fits on you — and which texture you prefer.  I’ve been so happy that they’ve been producing fitmesh for the mesh bodies now!

Also a side note, I combined Leela and Squeeze hairstyles from Analog Dog here.  Both are independently wonderful styles, but pairing them gave a huge curly mess that… just felt right.

The real magic of Ally Adventure are the remarkable materials-enabled textures.  The sparkles just have to be seen to be believed.  To my knowledge, every clothing item Ally sells comes with a set of face/body lights that are designed to enhance the sparkle without being too annoying to those around you.

No matter what your view of the world is, stop a moment… bask in the life around you, the shining lights — starlights, city lights, blinking lights — and enjoy the view.

Mahalo nui, my friends!  A hui hou kākou!

 


Nai’a

I’ve shared Sparta from Ally★Adventure with you in the past, so I thought I’d show you one of the other lovely products Ally has produced.  Dolphin is a sexy monokini with an amazing reflective (and transparent!) texture.  It comes with appropriately-positioned body lights to show it off just so — without being annoying as so many face lights are.

Dolphin (or nai’a in ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi) is available in the five standard rigged mesh sizes.  It appears that some of Ally’s newer items are available in fitmesh, you can be sure I’ll be checking those out!  And you must have a materials-enabled viewer to take advantage of this one… but the sparkle and shimmer are amazing.    You can find free demos of everything at Ally★Adventure, so please stop on by!

Mahalo! A hui hou!

 


Stars and sand

The skies darken as night falls on the beach, but the stars stay bright wherever you are in this happy little romper from Petite Mort!  Sabina was a 2016 group gift that I wanted to share with you, and I’m finally getting around to it!

Sabina  is still available right now at the old location, but might not be if you wait.  The store is in the process of moving, and that will happen SOON!   The new landmark is HERE: Petite Mort (new location).  I wouldn’t count on the gifts still being out once the move is completed!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!
