BUNNYYYYYY

As soon as I saw this Bunny Mesh Avatar as Work in Progress on Flickr I knew that I needed it. It is perfect for those days when nothing seems to cheer you up. That just happened today, but as soon as I logged in and saw this super cute Bunny looking at my camera I could not stop grinning.

So I decided to spread the cute and happiness it gave me today And the awesome part of it is, that there are a lot of different versions and they are all 50L$ at the Season Gacha event.

A splotch of Color

Thanks to computer problems I cannot do much right now, BUT I’ve got to make new pictures, so I will honor you with them

The sweater/dress is a subscriber gift from the coming soon shop “cold logic” and I just love it. It comes in three colors, all for free on subscription. I was in a red mood so here we go.

The shoes can be found at the seasons gacha and are from Ingenue. I got lucky and pulled out the fitting ones for this dress right on the first try. The necklace is from undefined lilies and available at the season gacha as well

The Make up has been the very first release of a dear friend of mine, naminaeko. I love the funky-ness of them and the vivid colors and so far they come in three colors. Link to her marketplace store will be below. I hope that she will do a lot more.

Pssst, it’s a secret!

I have been shopping a lot lately, though rather for my Roleplay characters at Hogwarts. So now it was time, to get some treat for myself again. And that happened right the day, when I read about ‘The Secret Store’ having a few items out on discount. Upon checking on that, I found a couple of red, white and green items and squealed of joy. They are still out and only 50 Linden each, so take your chance. I’m showing you a few of them I combined with a group gift of a store I never heard about. Thank you FabFree, that’s how I found them!

Looking through the filter

Just yesterday I’ve heard the good news of the Filtercam 2 Expansion Pack finally getting released. The MechanizedLife Filtercam is a Tool in SL, to add filters like peepholes, color overlays, frames and more directly to your snapshots, without postwork. You can also add your own filters which makes this tool even more awesome as it already is. (You can see a demo video here, by the way if you need a better idea.)

The Expansion pack includes 90 new preset-filters for the FilterCam, based on 50 different filter textures, like Vintage TV frames, sniper crosshairs, rusty frames and more. The feel of those filters are more vintage, dirty and grungy and really a great addition to the ton of filters of the Basic Filtercam.

Don’t forget that if you have FilterCam 2 already, that all upgrades from previous versions are absolutely free! If you only have FilterCam’s previous version, please contact CodeBastard Redgrave in world

I used the same Scene for the pictures to show you the different looks the same scene can have with the filters. It is so much fun to play around with it!

I’m gonna marry the night

“I’m gonna marry the night,
I will begin new life,
I’ll dance this new world afar,
And receive a kiss from that shining star.”

This is just one part of a poem called “Marry the night” by Timothy Ore.The whole poem you can read here. When I saw this dress, by the same name, from LuNi, I imediately thought of that piece of art.

I like this gown a lot, the lace the steps in the skirt with the long but still usable train, the lovely veil.. it is a fantastic combination for a lot of occassions, be it a ball, visiting a gothic sim or roleplaying. It’s simply beautiful and imho pretty sexy.

Legions at her hand

Yesterday my good friend Cale told me about a Micro Hunt at Barerose and as a longtime fan of almost everything they have been doing before T had to get on that hunt. It was a pretty small hunt – as said Micro – and it was fairly easy but fun

The Prize is The “Armor of Ordeal” for guys and girls, neatly placed in 4 parts in a little scavenger hunt. When you arrive at Barerose you have to touch the “The Mother Dragon” Hunt sign and get a folder with a landmark to start and an instructions notecard. The hunt goes along with a story that will give you some background and atmosphere while you are on your hunt and also a task you have to fulfill to get to the parts of the gifts. When you are done with the 4 parts you can also get a special extra that you will have to find on the sim, but you will get a clue and i found it easy to spot.

The extra contains the top, cloak and belt in the extra color pink for girls and blue for guys. One of the other 4 parts will give you this little sweet ride.

The Dragon is to wear, so it does not need any prims on the land or rez rights. It trigers the riding position and a soft up and down motion as soon as you wear it. It’s way too much fun to get off it again, so I’m riding it since I got it

Meshy Redness

So now that I can finally use Mesh and Shadows I wanted to use it both in my pictures. And although fixing the shadow glitches take a lot of work and time, I really like them

I doubt I’ll have to tell you anything about Mesh, since the feeds are full of them. These Boots are from SLink and each color comes in 4 sizes to make sure that you can wear them without changing your shape too much. Same goes for Jane’s shorts I am wearing. I love how Mesh moves with the body without looking stiff. Though I hope that LL will add some chance to edit Mesh rather than forcing designers to include several sizes. That would be great for those people with unusual shapes to keep their individuality.

The glasses I am wearing are mesh too and they look really great. I do not know for how long but right now you can get several packs of Mesh glasses (tortoise shell pattern and black, with big and those small glasses) for only 1L each at bastard. I had to get them because I really really LOVE glasses on me

Jareth likes it floral

Finally another blogpost of mine. I wanted to do one way earlier but fighting with my computer and mesh took a lot of time. I still can’t run it well, but might be able to make a mesh post soon, but not today

When I unpacked this outfit LuNi, I immediately fell in love. I love the shape, the casual but uniform like gothy look and I knew exactly what look I wanted to go for for the picture. LuNi released this outfit in Bubblegum, Cobalt, Grass (worn in picture) and Rust. Not forget that there is a purple version available as Twisted Hunt Gift.

The Twisted Fae Makeup I am wearing (the green eyeshadow) is only one of 4 colors that are available at LuNi only in this month’s Gacha. Last but not least: LuNi has a great sale this month on all PURPLE items in the shop, you should not miss that, Lucas Gerard and Nimil Blackflag have some great creations available for you

I rejoiced to finally have a chance and a fitting outfit to wear those awesome boots from lassitude & ennui. The lace on the boots is changeable between white, black and none, also the colors of the pearls and the metal in front can be change to suit your outfit more. I’m absolutely in love with this floral pattern.

This fantastic skin from Gala was part of the Seasons Hunt and was the icing on the cake for this look. I hope you got that prize because it is simply beautiful.
