Something different all over again.

I ended up wearing an outfit from ADN called Lilu, given its name and look one doesn't have to work hard to come up with the inspiration.  Well, the inspiration put me in the mood for SF so I revisited a couple of Adult SF inspired sims, and I also was thinking about making another purchase from Jomo.  When I visited there, I found they had redecorated and added a dragon.

This image was taken at U.F.O. Abduction the SexXxperience.

The following ones were taken at Skara Brae.  I was trying to recreate something that was evocative of the outfit's inspiration.

 And here we have the the Dragon at Jomo.

Lastly outfits I wore for brief visits on the 5th & 7th.  The blue outfit is mostly SF designs, the black and red one, nearly all Grumble.  The blue outfit snapshot is from an art gallery called Pirats SAS Art Gallery, the other was taken while I was dancing at the Hard Rock Shemale Club.

Purple Passion

Not sure how I end up doing this, I don't try, really.  But when I look back over the daily outfit snapshots, I often see an obvious trend.  Recently I got all purple-ish.  But I got over that today when I woke up in the middle of the night and logged on for a while. 

The emo pants are from ADN, the shirt is a dollarbie I picked up someplace, boots are grumble.  The dress is a from a shop that makes many variations on that theme, as well as some other cute stuff.  And I'm wearing old style prim feet from Slink.  They've come out with some new mesh ones, but I tried the demo and couldn't get them to blend into my avatar any better than these really.  The last outfit is mostly stuff I've worn before, with a strappy number from Hybridz.

All locations for these snapshots are someone on the island at Pair A Dice.

Black & White & Grumble All Over

Been in a Grumble sort of mood I guess.  Most recently wore outfits that are mostly Grumble.  The black and white one posed in front of the fountain at SF Design's formal wear is all Grumble, boots to top.  Except for the jewelry and hair.  The white outfit is nearly all Grumble except for the pendant, hair and top.  The top is from Baby Monkey, the location is back at the vast Rose Theater.

TG Beauty Queen Ousted

It seems a very lovely woman, named Jenna Talackova, who was born male and has gone through reassignment surgery, was expelled from the Miss Universe Canada contest.  You can read about it at Yahoo news.

My thoughts are that if there was no rule requiring that contestants be born female before she entered, then that is wrong.  If there was, then she should not have entered.  I don't condone such a rule, but entering under false pretenses of any kind is not right.  Also, if they did expel her without a pre-existing rule, then these people are the worst kind of bigots, hypocritical ones hiding behind "The Establishment."

I don't really like beauty pageants as they are commonly done.  They epitomize many of the things I think are wrong about how our western society views women.

And if you think guys can't be as beautiful as women, check this out. Google Image Search for Andrej Pejic.

Back in Black.

I wonder if one of the reasons so many submissives in SL approach me about topping them is my wardrobe?  I like black.  In RL and in SL.  And in SL it seems that if you wear black it's sort of visual code for dominant.  Pink seems to be visual code for submissive.  I think too many people rely on those visual queues.  Anyway, I do wear a lot of black.

For example, a leather vest, black mesh shirt and leather pants all from ADN.  Though each is from a different outfit.  BDR hair, jewelry from Grumble and some freebie boots.  The sunglasses are also freebies and I think must be very very old.  No sculpty work in them at all and very few prims.  I tweaked them quite a bit before I liked them enough to wear.

Then there is dress from Nyte'N'Day, fur trimmed leather shrug from ADN and shoes from Baby Monkey with a blond do from Grumble.  Or, a top from Pixiedolls, cords from ADN and boots from Grumble with my favorite Bryce hair.

The first snapshot was taken at Kowloon, a pretty famous "tourist" stop in SL.  The middle one was taken at the new Ladyboy Beach.  And the last, once again at my stopping grounds, Pair A Dice.

Happy Anniversary to Me.

Just hit me after I made my postings for today, that this blog is now one whole year old.

Que the cheering!

Okay, enough of that.

O' Caledon!?

I was recently showing a newcomer to Second Life around and took them to Oxbridge College at Caledon.  I have no idea why I've not mentioned this place before.  Caledon is a great place to visit, something like twenty plus sims full of Steampunk wackiness and friendly creative tolerant people.  There are trains and airships that will carry you about the vast estate and let you see the sights.  There is so much, I don't even know where to start, other than to say, you really should go see it.

Please note that it is not adult, and asks folks to respect "Victorian" sensibilities a bit.  Meaning, please dress, and if practical, dress somewhat formally and in period.  If I can figure out what to highlight, I'll post more on this huge and delightful place where I've spent hours and hours exploring in times past.

Note: 6/2012 - If you would like to wear a nice outfit that fits the steampunk theme, Blakopal always has a free out for both men and women at the main shop.

Blow the man down.

Not feeling really perky today, so getting to the point...

Since I'd worn two of my three skirts from Blowup, I decided to opt for that on my next time into SL.  Then, when I returned later, I got to showing someone around the Pair A Dice sim, which is where all the snapshots are taken.  And decided on a rather risque look.  Lastly, the next evening, feeling more like a night out dancing, I went with a club look.

First: The red plaid skirt is blowup, the short jacket my favorite from B@R.  Tie from Mimi's, pasties and shoes I picked up years ago and don't remember where.  Socks are from Baby monkey.  Hair is from Sirena and has color changing removable scrunchies.

Second: A ripped up wench's dress from Copper For Your Fancy.  Copper makes the best "Wench" dresses I've ever seen, in different colors and states ranging from quite prim and well cared for, to rather care worn, to ripped to rags.

Last: An off the shoulder LBD from SF Designs, along with a belt from that same shop.  The belt comes with a system skirt, but it works well with other things, such as this dress which also uses a system skirt.  Hair and shoes are from Grumble.

Blowing Up on the Beach!

One of my favorite old hangouts, Ladyboy Beach, has been reincarnated.  Not exactly the same, but very close.  Been there the last couple of times I've been on.  Good music stream, good dance ball, friendly folks.  What more can you ask for?  Oh, huts with naughty stuff, they have those too.

Speaking of which, I love Blowup skirts.  But since my avatar has snake hips, to get them to fit correctly I have to shrink them way down.  This means I have to wear some undies with them, or be very naughty indeed.  I also picked up some "strapped" platform boots from Grumble recently.  In blue and red.  I haven't worn my blow up skirts much lately, so decided to remedy that.

First snapshot is me in a mostly ADN outfit with a blowup skirt and my favorite hat.  Boots from Grumble.  The next shows me in some awesome platform boots from a shop whose name escapes me, but if you love them and want a pair, IM me in world and I'll find out.  The skirt is blowup, the top is grumble, as is the hair.  Last, I'm wearing a vest from Blackopal with a very low cut pair of suspender pants from ADN.  The boots are Grumble and the mohawk is Bryce.

BTW: The girl behind me is really a very well done prim sculpture.  When I first saw it I almost said hi, then I realized it had no name bubble. :)

St. Patrick's

I was only on very briefly on St. Patrick's day this year, I wasn't feeling well unfortunately.  But I made it on long enough to put on my Shamrock covered dress from Grumble and tint some BDR hair green for the occasion.  The background is Lar's, still on my list of stops and still with some good DJ's even though there is now a new location.  Evidently they were filling up the sim too often, so it seems like they have extended and split the club across sim lines, which pushes maximum capacity up.

Hope you had a great holiday.
