A Blue Jeans Sort of Day

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Blueberry is one of my fave clothing makers – the quality and fit are really some of the best in Second Life. Recently they released a new pair of jeans that not only look good but are nicely versatile too, featuring both flare and skinny jeans versions.

The jeans feature a string detail in front and the fabric has richly detailed creases and folds.

The flare jeans feature a tall hip hugger style, with two versions, one for high feet and one for flat feet with your toes peeking out.

The jeans are for Maitreya Lara, and come as a fat pack with 29 single colors, as well as various pattern options and ombre colors. It also includes two sets of options with the belt or without.

The skinny version features a lower cut over the tummy, and string detailing at the back of the ankles.

Snuggle into some jeans with me? Cheers!

While further tidying my inventory, I came across this outfit that I got last month, I think on a hunt.  I’ve failed to photograph it at the time so I’m not sure, but it’s available in-store for L$400 for a pack of six colors.

The fit it Maitreya Lara only. The top and panties are separates and come in Lavender (worn), Night, Crimson, Cloud, Sand, and Ocean.

Sometimes, when your inventory gets as large and as messy as mine (it’s not really messy, I try and keep reasonably well organized, but messy sounds good hehe), you come across stuff that you have absolutely no idea where it came from, who made it, or anything about it really.  Case in point is this nightie I found languishing in my “Sleepwear” folder.  It’s not accompanied by an advertisement texture, it has no HUD, it’s just a lone item.  And of course the creator is “Unknown”.

But it looks really nice as it’s fitmesh for Lara.  So, even though I can’t tell you were I got it, enjoy the photos anyway 🙂

A flyaway dress for a breezy day

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Happy Aloha Friday, my wonderful friends!  I thought I’d share this beautiful summery dress that I picked up a bit earlier in the season with you.  Summer for Your Heart is a beautiful fluttery dress from DE.Boutique that just calls to me on such a beautiful day!

  • DE.Boutique — Summer to Your Heart dress (Freya/Venus/Isis/Maitreya/Physique/EBody Curvy/TMP fitmesh)
  • EarthStones — Playful Dolphins necklace and earrings
  • Persefona — Samia Wreath (navy)
  • Rebel Hope — Laguna mesh sandals
  • an lar [poses] — The Julep Series – Two pose

Summer for Your Heart has a beautiful eight-texture HUD that has some wonderful patterns on it: I have a hard time deciding on my favourite! 

I totally love the Laguna sandals from Rebel Hope.  I just wish, I really really wish that creators who made barefoot sandals would rig them for the SLink Kitten feet!  PLEASE!

I’m going to have to run back and see what else DE.Boutique has to offer.  In the meantime, have a wonderful happy Friday!

A hui hou kākou!

Summer is coming to an end, and soon we’ll be in warmer clothes for the fall, but before that, one more pair of shorts!

These separate shorts and halter top were a previous group gift from NyDesign.  Their group is FREE to join, and as of this writing, they are still available in the main store.

There are sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Physique, Hourglass, Curvy, and Fine.  They also come with a HUD with six plain patterns for the top and belt, which you can texture separately, and six matching colored patterns for the shorts.

Fitmesh white jeans!  Yay!

This was a MM win from Artic Storm.  Good jeans always seem to be one of the things that I end up buying, but not this time.  My other pair of white jeans are only standard sizing, but these come in fitmesh for classic avatars, Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Fine, and Curvy, and the top is in my colors in the same list of sizes 🙂

The jeans are very nicely rigged, and the textures are excellent.  Thanks, AS!

I’ve mentioned here recently that I love one piece swimsuits.  Seems like someone has been listening to me, and I keep finding them in hunts and MM boards!  Not that I’m complaining!

This one is from MOoh, and comes in standard mesh sizes, plus fitmesh for classic avis, plus Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Ebody, Hourglass, Physique, Curvy, Fine, and TMP.  The crochet look is wonderful!

There is a HUD included with white, black, and eight other bold colors.   Another lovely addition to my collection 🙂

Mix and Match Sci Fi Edition

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

By now my followers know I love mixing and matching things up. Today let me show you another one where I have gone totally to town, and in fact maxed out my attachment points in the process 🙂

The base bits (body applier and gloves) come from Xtra Ordinary’s Sith Lady Outfit V2, for Maitreya Lara. On top of this I added (and added and added) more things. Most of them are components from Sole, who make some amazing hi tech looking gear. In my photos I have a rotating rainbow swirl light attached to me, and this makes the materials in Sole’s products just shimmer. I also have a variety of smaller attachment items from a couple of outfits by Grave (always a good source for sci fi gear).

The boots are Foxy from Blueberry, who while certainly not the first name that come to mind for sci fi outfits, has some wonderful shiny materials on these boots that are just right.

Here’s a close up and you can see the absolutely wicked detailing on the Sole Mask, as well as the Holocle Visor from PsiNanna. And that hair!  Medusa Cyber Hair comes from A&Y and includes various tubes making it perfect for all your cybernetic needs. The tube types can also be colored independently.

  • Outfit components: Dragon Gloves and Dragonsuit applier from Sith Lady Outfit V2 by Xtra Ordinary (XO); Armtech Mk2, Backpack Mk 2, CLT Gadget, Mask 7M, and Regulator by Sole (Marketplace only); Holocle Visor by PsiNanna (Marketplace Link); Disc, Arm Cuffs, Belly Buckles, Chest Buckles from G369 Gravity and Pocket Belt from G566 Widow by Graves
  • Hair: Medusa Cyber Hair by A&Y
  • Boots: Foxy by Blueberry
  • Poses:  Candy pose 2 by K&S; crossed hands 1 and female-09Fby Lumipro

Have I hooked you yet on the fun that can be had with mixing and matching? Cheers!

I haven’t photographed a gown for a while!  This one is a past group gift from Virtual Diva.  Their group is FREE to join, and there are a number of past group gifts available.

This gown is only standard mesh sizes (no fitmesh, *sobs*) but looks lovely, and it gives me a chance to wear my full set of diamonds!

I mentioned the other day that I’d done the Frog Prince Hunt, and this hairstyle was a prize in that hunt.  The designer was very generous, and had two hunt items available.  Both are normally in browns, but they come with a color wheel HUD that allows you to add a tint.  All it takes is a little pink, et voilà, I nearly match my normal color 🙂

I love one pieces

blue LotD

Hello, sweets!  I have another one piece swimsuit to show you, and to add to my collection!  This was a past group gift from NyDesign.  Their group is FREE to join.

This one comes with a fab cover-up, which unfortunately suffers from showing the triangles making it up as a lot of double sided mesh does when you make it semi-transparent.  It looks pretty good as long as you don’t get too close.

Both pieces come in sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, Curvy, and Fine.  It also comes with a HUD with five plain colors, and five fruit patterns!  You can also change the transparency of the cover-up, so the problem I mentioned is not really a problem.

Oh, and the suit is cut really high 🙂
