TP gift from Sass

This little top is a gift for members of teleporthub.com.   This group is a mere L$10 to join, and you’ve heard me say it before, there are dozens of gifts scattered across the grid for you when you join.

The top is only in sizes for Lara and Hourglass.  Included is a ten color HUD in black, white, and eight nice pastels.  While it’s rigged nicely, with the straps being off-shoulder, there are some minor problems with them.  But you know…

I’m going to use it as a night dress, so, who cares? 🙂

This fabulous outfit is the current group gift from Seniha.  Their group is FREE to join.

The top and pants are separates, and come in sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, and Hourglass.

There are two variations of both the top and pants as separate objects (rather than a HUD).  I really like the belted frilled top pants 🙂


Stargazer

Aloha kākou!  Hello, my friends!  I wanted to share a little lovely outfit from Jazabelle BoutiqueStargazer is a wonderful ensemble with the most amazing jacket and maxi skirt that’s sure to make your statement.

Our very own Jaz has been putting out quite a few full ensemble outfits lately with a variety of options, and this one is no exception.  It features a full outfit, with bandeau top, the lovely jacket, necklace, boots, and a choice of mini or maxi skirt.  I totally adore the jacket… perfect for any astronomer… and every dreamer.

  • Jazabelle Boutique — Stargazer complete outfit (jacket, bandeau top, maxi and miniskirts, necklace and boots) (Lara fitmesh only)
  • [Kikay]look up! pose

It may be a bit hazy to use my telescope tonight, but there are other pretty shinies to enjoy.

The maxi skirt has the most wonderful animated starry texture: the stars swirl about you in a slow but noticeable fashion.  While long mesh dresses and maxis can be… awkward… to dance in, this one is nicely rigged, and dances gentle dances quite well.  That said, I probably wouldn’t try a dance that’s too flamboyant!

Stargazer is at Jazabelle’s in-world shop now.  Stop by and take a look around, Jaz has been having a lot of fun putting things together for your enjoyment!

Mahalo!  A hui hou kākou!


Darkness again

And yet another hunt item from The Darkness Inside Hunt.  When I get on a roll with a hunt, I certainly get on a roll 🙂

This is a very simple mini dress, in sizes for Lara, Physique, Hourglass, Isis, Freya, and Venus.  The real win on this hunt item find is the boots, which come in sizes for each of the bodies mentioned!

The lacing on the boots is really nice.  I wonder if there is a corset lacing plugin for Blender?  lol

The Darkness Inside Hunt is on at the moment.  It runs though until the 25th of April.  Here’s the first item I found.

This is an older fitmesh dress for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass and Physique.  There is clipping at the left waistline that you can’t hide with alphas because of the asymmetrical nature of the dress.  Walking around in it is just fine, and I certainly like the print.

Also included in the box are panties in the same sizes as the dress, which you certainly need lol.


Winter Noir

This, my sweets, is an amazing gown from Sasheba’s Closet.  It’s their hunt item for the Strut Your Stuff Hunt, and it can be yours for an incredible L$1 if you get in quick before the hunt ends at the end of the month (and you can find it of course!)

There’s a lot going on with this gown!  Firstly, the gown itself is fitmesh for Lara, Venus, Isis, Freya, Physique, Hourglass, and TMP.  It also comes in the five classic sizes.

There are three pairs of flexi skirt layers, and you get to choose just how many you’d like to wear.  Or you can turn the mermaid into a simple sheath by wearing none at all.  In these photos, I’m wearing all three pairs.

Despite being completely cut away, the gown is pretty modest.  The only problem with the low leg cutaways is that you can see the top of the skirt groups through them, but with the overall stunning effect of this one, no one is going to notice.

Materials.  Oh my, this gown makes serious use of materials, and you really must find it so you can see them for yourself!

It has a HUD to control the level of materials in use for both the gown and the skirts.  There are three levels for each, from just a little glitter to dazzling.  You can also adjust glow in the HUD and you can change the tint to anything you like with a universal color picker.  When the tint color is set to white, the gown’s overall black texture dominates, but as you can see, adding just a touch of light blue changes the look by tinting the highlights.  The HUD even has eight save slots for your favorite tints!

I’m wearing the medium glitter in these photos.  In the photo below, you can really see the sparkle in the dress just above the skirts.

Oh, and lastly, if you really really must, included in the box is a cloud particle emitter you can wear that well, emits clouds… around your feet lol.


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!

The Strut Your Stuff Hunt is on at the moment, and runs through the end of the month, so you still have a chance to find some of the 35 L$1 hunt items!

This top and skirt are the hunt prize from Changed Seasons.  They are separates, so you can mix and match (this top would be nice with a lighter skirt I think).   There are nice attention to detail touches, including splits at the front and back of the skirt.

The two pieces are in sizes for Lara, Isis, Freya, Venus,  Physique, Hourglass, and TMP.
