Summer Storms

When Tyr Rozenblum writes, I listen. Ok not really but she’s an awesome chick! Tyr has a ton of imagination. She started designing for herself as she’s an experienced RPer. Over time, people asked where she got her clothing. Soon after her brand was born. Her products, whether its skins or clothing and accessories, have come such a long way.

Soon enough this outfit will be available for purchase. I love a half tank and super long skirt. These types of skirts are so awesome to for snaps.

This location is simply amazing. I highly recommend taking some time to explore. Its just so cool. With my new post payouts, I’m keeping additional photos under the cut with the details and location.

Lola’s Colors

Lola is full of color. So much so that I think I broke my CS5′s gif makerthingamajig. Please be prepared for some serious photo spam. You’ll just have to forgive me just this one. This skin deserves something and this something is a photo-montage.

Miss Launa Fauna will be launching Lola’s 2nd makeup pack very shortly. I love that she keeps her makeups in small packages of 5. Its manageable and small enough quite easily to fall in love with each of the personalities.

The incoming photos (after the cut) will make it quite clear as to why I’ve followed this skin created fro the past 3 years. L.Fauna, as its known today, was the first skin brand I religiously trailed. Just recently, she’s become a great friend of mine. Regardless of the friendship, the dorky fangirl still slips out when I see new makeups … and usually in-front of her. wow. I’m a dork.

Just a little KYOOTness

I’m catching up on my blogging. Aren’t you proud … all 6 of you who read my posts.

All joking aside. Kyoot came out with a few new items. Just this past weekend, its all about the bikini. The ‘kini has teeny little bows. Its cute with or without the bows. Either way, its an awesome product. I think this might be the first bikini from Kyoot. In my years of following the brand, I don’t remember a bikini. So yeah for swimwear!!

Since the next photo is NSFW, its after the cut. Its a must see since omg its the sex. Can I say that about myself?! lol

Her name was LOLA

L.Fauna gave us all a teeeeny little teaser a week ago on the new face.  As mentioned in my last post, its exciting to see a long time fangirled skin creator making updates to their skin line. LOLA is exactly that!

This new face has a few pleasantly surprising and lovable updates. They are so minor and look stunning on so many faces.  When I was seeing the skin during production I kept oohing and ahhing. Kinda embarrassing now.

LOLA’s first edition of makeups are due out very very soon. The first pack is 5 makeups. In this post, I’ll show only 2. Surely in upcoming posts you’ll see more but for now just the two.

Read on for the additional photo and credits.

Photo Contest – L.Fauna

L.Fauna has a new face and her name is LOLA. If you’re like me, you wore the LOLA teaser since its launch this past Friday. I’m really quite excited to see the skins released without the bodysuit (and full priced). Also, just this evening, I was given the sneak peek at the first fat pack of the new LOLA. Boy, is she gorgeous!!

There’s even a little photo contest to celebrate. The contest details are below

Sysy makes Express happy

Sysy is making guy stuff!! I sent Express over to get all the shorts. He asked me earlier today if I saw her plurk about shorts. Then he brings it up again … and then finally we saw them released. Immediately we ran over to get the full pack. The shorts are 80L and the full pack of them is 350L. That’s just awesome!!

Since Express was working on a RL project, I hijacked the blog post and took the pic myself. He was kind enough to give him his style info.

Skin Review: PXL Candy

A few weeks back, maybe even a month or so ago, I received a demo pack of the new PXL Candy. The purpose was to provide feedback. This is nothing new for me. Over the years of doing skin reviews, I’ve been asked for my opinion prior to many skin releases. I typically offer, like my reviews, very honest constructive feedback.

I was so more than elated to see the new skins in their pre-production glory. I did offer very open thoughts on Candy with raw pictures even. A few notes passed back and forth and weeks go by I forgot about Candy. Honestly, I did.

Then I saw the group notice of her release. I got excited all over again. PXL is on my very short list of skin creators I adore. Adoration is beyond love for me. Its complete happiness. And Candy is exactly that – happiness.

For me and me alone

My blog may not be the biggest or the most popular but I enjoy spending time on photos and flipping through poses and different looks. This one came to me when I saw the new Truth hair and the poses at !BANG.

Blogs are to be an outlet of self-expression. I’m sure looking back in my 3 years of blogging I look like a crabby blogger or a total nutball … or both.  Regardless of the perception I’ve done countless skin reviews, general reviews, men’s fashion and now a few home decor posts.  I’ve spent the last few day re-organizing blog posts and wanted to show off the work

I’m really proud where my blogging adventure has taken me and it shows solid growth. My blog is my SL profession. One of the designers many moons ago told me that I’ll always be known as a blogger regardless of what I do. He was right. I’m a blogger. Its what I do … and do for me.

Forgetting yourself for awhile

I’ve abandoned going to plurk for blog title (for now). I’ve turned to lyrics. I took these photos yesterday but never blogged them. When photoshopping a storyline for the post, I decided to go with this photo. Only this photo.

As you stand
Under the bar lights
And the band plays some song
About forgetting yourself for a while
And the piano’s this melancholy soundcheck
To her smile
And that white dress she’s wearing
You haven’t seen her
For a while

We all know I love a good sale. When Tyr Rozenblum writes to say, “I got an upcoming sale”. My ears perk. SALE?!?

So this sale: Starts May 17 at Midnight (so in a few hours) and runs until Thursday at Midnight. All things new and old at Tyranny Designs is 50% off. Yup, half off!

Some of those things even I haven’t seen before until she tells me to come over to see the store. Oh, yeah new store layout. I swear this lady has way too much talent. Very happy to see her growing from a tiny little store to a huge new store.

As you can see from the above photos with Scarlet, Tyr’s clothing ranges from the earthy to bold colored. Told ya she has a ton of awesome talent. Only a few designers on the grid are able to have such a wide selection done so very well.
