HOLY POSE FAIR BATMAN!!


Oh My GOD!!!  Grab your purses, drop those prims and leave your Stiletto Moody's at home!!! It's coming!!! Friday it will be here!!  Yes, I'm uber excited. Though technically I shouldn't be. I have enough poses to open a studio, fashion agency, modeling a....this really isn't that important.

But what IS important is that on FRIDAY, April 1 (yes...THIS Friday), two levels of around about 100 pose, dance AND AO stores will convene on this one location for fifteen days!! And they will be selling EVERYTHING under the sun here! New stuff, old stuff, thing we didn't even know they had kind of stuff.  AND...it's a multi-level structure this time folks.

What am I talking about?? POSE FAIR 2011!! Last year it was very well organized. Katey Coppola of Glitterati and her trust cohorts did a bang up job of organizing and managing the fair last year and they're at it again this year! The event will take place in a multi-structure facility and I gotta say this well ahead of time as a returning visitor: DROP EVERY PRIM YOU OWN, GO BALD AND IN NOTHING BUT CLOTHING LAYERS!! lmao


Yes, this is what I will be wearing (less actually).  It's last year's awesome pose fair skin! What you do is make yourself into a human (or furry or short) walking talking poseball. It's low lag, all the rage this (and last) year and you'll have a better chance of sifting through all of the scripted places virtually unscathed.

This truly can't be expressed enough, because people keep wondering why they're crashing. We all know everyone wants to look their best when they're out in public, but really??  DROP THE GEAR.  Walk like a noob for a day (or 15) so you can truly benefit!  Being cute will get you lagged, timed out and most likely crashed more than those professional mannequins in the car commercials.

Anywho...see you at the end of the week my fellow shutterbugs, dancers and walkers.  It's POSE FAIR time!

SLURL won't activate til Friday, but I can tell you it's gonna be on the Postura Sim.

Lazy Sunday Featuring Plastik!

Yes I am a huge fan of Aikea Reiko and her creative spark at Plastik.  I cannot rave enough about her infinite creative visions and how she continues to surprise even me – I am rather picky when it comes to my shopping and even more so when it comes to blogging something I like.

Bring in Lazy Sunday, and a new release from Plastik!  It is a full body tribal tattoo, but wait!  There is more.  This tattoo comes in 3 shades, tintable versions and non-tintable, and it even comes in an actual tattoo layer! The detail of this item is amazing, but what sets it off is the wicked green/blue eyes that accompany this week’s release.  HI5 Plastik, yet again you astound me and make me drool for more yummy goodness! 

It was so hot, I put on one of my least photographed Elven skins, from Plastik, and the Low of the week release from Blacklace!   Ladies it does not get much better than this.  Check out both amazing stores from Content creators that have been in word for years and have been setting the bar on quality and affordability!

The Creep

There comes a point where you look at all the pretty perfect skins, shapes, and fashions furrow your brow and say "eff this' to find something... different...

I was in one such mood.And so, I shopped. because that's what you do when you're feeling defiant. You shop.

I found the most badass shirt. I absolutely love it. It's by [ANCAYI] and I can't help but admire the texture work on it. I didn't see any seems in the shirt...

The pants however are another story. They are by A&C Design and you can see every seem on these puppies. From the front they're not so bad, and the jeans have A LOT of potential. However, the tip on the left hip is VERY obvious where the seems are meeting up. The prims are alright, but seem to be just a solid black instead of textured, not overly noticeable unless you're really looking. I wasn't too fond with how low they went in the back either. Pretty much an entire half moon is hanging out of your pants, and while, that might work in Detroit with a pair of boxers to cover your moon, it's not entirely how I enjoy my fashions. I do however like the overall look of the jeans. I think they could be better done and wouldn't recommend you purchase them.

Of course, what makes the whole look come together into a punk/goth fright fest is the skin. I couldn't have made it look nearly as creepy without the skin and eyes from FRICK. I LOVE Frick because they do things so differently, although lately I've seen a lot more conformity but, I suspect FRICK will return to their niche soon, I hope.
And with that, I'll leave you with a GREAT Bargain. These boots from Silent Fashions are a GREAT deal. UNDER 100 linden on the marketplace and they look fantastic! Great detail work!! I'm always worried about buying shoes that are inexpensive on the grid because you end up with something not pictured but these DID NOT disappoint.

And with that, I leave you on your fashion journey. <3 RD
