Inventory Sorting

Yesterday was one of those days when I – after a long and hard housework day in RL – just sat down and did not want to think too much. So I started the most mindless work ever, sorting my inventory. I should have never started to make a “To Sort” Folder after I organized it, because now that folder is bigger than all my other folders *laughs*

Well anyhow, After sorting for a while I looked at myself and I actually liked the mix I found myself in. You know when you try out the stuff and don’t take them off before trying something new. So I made this my “Look of the day” to share with you.

What did I use and where can you get it?

50′s and a Kitten in my hair

On Friday my computer’s graphic card had a little melt down and decided it’s time to go, i could not get back into my windows but into recovery mode. After I have been trying to convince it to go back to work i knew that does not help at all and i was so sad that i could log back in to finish the “Make him over hunt” with my best friend and to get the lovely Fifty linden Friday dress from artilleri.

On Saturday another good friend reminded me of my on board graphic chip (which i totally forgot about), while i have been chatting with him on recovery mode (that mode is not really satisfying but did work okay enough to chat). So trying if that works i got surprised and was happy that i did not have to spend the rest of the few days until i get another graphic card in recovery mode.

And thanks to the lovely and fabulous Isabeau Reinard and Antonia Marat i logged in on Saturday into SL, with my super slow but working on board grahpics, and found the dress in my inventory – Thank you girls you made me happy

And i don’t know why but i wanted to wear my Mrs.Mittens hair, so it was having a happy moment in the 50′s, wearing a kitten in my hair and showing her around. Isn’t it cute? It meows when being clicked and it’s cute eyes blink randomly.

Rocking the Hair Fair with ARC 1

So I had my brave day today. I am having a very hard time IMing people and being around people I don’t know, I think I mentioned panicking when i am close to strangers before… Well today I IMed strangers, saw strangers, listened to stranger’s discussions and I was among them. And I cannot believe it but … I am still alive

The biggest mass of people I think i faced today during the Hair Fair. I actually wanted to wait a bit longer until it is more quiet but since I had my brave day and was terribly bored I jumped into the flood of people tonight. And of course as expected it was pretty laggy. But that was not only because of the prims around or the amount of people. No, of course not.

But who the heck dresses in a million prim outfit, wears a million prim Hair with scripts all over the items to a fair that expectedly will by laggy as hell? Well I could have shown You a few hundred of them. I was happy for my Derendering feature and was happily making people invisible and pretending the fair was made only for me – Mwhaha. And I was there without a single prim myself and still looking dashing *lol*

Before I went i was even bold but then found those cool shaved hairbases from boon for free and had to throw it on. Looks much nicer that way. And I was really lucky that the lovely Kesseret Steeplechase let me test her brand new Scratcher HUD (yay finally scratching for prices in SL *dance*) because I won this cute Top

In case that you did never hear about ARC and stuff and wonder what the heck I am talking about here a short explanation. ARC is short for Avatar Rendering Cost. Each prim, flexi prim, script and what not you wear goes with some formula into that cost. And the higher the worse for laggy situations. Each prim you wear adds more to the lag, because it has to be rendered by everyone around, the textures have to be loaded, the sculpts have to be loaded etc. So when you go to a fair or a concert or anything where you know you will be caught in lag – strip off your prims, go bald, barefoot.. you do not have to be naked, your layer clothes are not going into that cost obviously – the outfit i am wearing has an ARC of 1 – and the 1 is the avatar itself.

Help the fair and the visitors, also yourself and go lag free, no matter how that looks you can enjoy the fair much better without rubberbanding and crashing all the time

Namaste

Namaste, my friends – I bow to you.

Yesterday I have been visiting a place i have not been for a while and i was surprised, that I did not rezz in a Mall where I have to find the little shop at the corner, but stood in a beautiful place with flowers and trees, butterflies and right in front of me a big yak. I did not know before, that Yak & Yeti (a store with Tibetian, Indian inspired designs) now has its own place but it’s really lovely.

It got me into the mood to make something Indian. And since my name is Hindi as well (it means Moonlight – and no, I am not Indian *winks*) I think it’s about time to celebrate my love to India, it’s culture and its fashion with a blogpost of course the pictures are taken at said store

One thing I love about Indian fashion, and many corners in the country, are all those strong colors, mixed in all ways which gives it an always happy friendly feeling. I would love to have a nice dance to the charming music, but sadly the SL Avatars do not allow the proper finger positions so it would take away some of the charm – if LL ever updates the mesh, please free fingers to tons of movements, thanks

I wanted to show you the awesome jewelry in detail. When I saw it the first time i could not believe that it was free, such an amazing work. Yes, Yak & Yeti always has been the motto “Free things for Free people” so all clothing and accessories and even some of the furnitures in the store are all for free.

Some nights are just golden!

Last night I wanted to go back to this little Jazz club I have been in recently. But since I did not want to run around there for pictures in the same outfit as before I had to find something new.

Since I was in the mood for some shopping anyway I went to Trubble, a shop I was talking with a friend about recently. I cannot remember if I ever was there apart from hunts, so I took a peek. And i got lucky. As soon as i saw this black golden dress I had to get it for the Jazz club. It comes in three different skirt options and I decided to go for the miniskirt. Hooray!
