I’m Ready for My Closeup

Posted on by admin

http://I'm ready for my closeup

OK, I’ll admit it… I’m on a classic movie binge.  There are just so many with lines that are so iconic, they’ve made it into that little book of sayings we all use.  Hopefully, I’m not being quite as pretentious as Norma Desmond (the character in Sunset Boulevard), but I do find that close-ups are always harder than I remember.  At first, I’m always “this will be easy to pull together, it’s just the head” but (and it’s a BIG but) it actually takes just as much if not more prep.  You’re not showing an entire outfit, but SOMETHING always gets into the shot, so you still need to coordinate it all (except shoes… you can get away going barefoot lol).  And let’s face it… if you’re not shooting at home, you need to be dressed and not just running around in your skin.  A beautiful hairstyle may not work well on a closeup… in a case like this one, it can’t block the eye makeup or the earrings, and those hairs that sometimes pop through your ears?  Poses (which you need in order to stand still) create other issues… closeup they may not look natural, or the shoulder looks non-human, or the jewelry goes into your neck or shoulder.  And then there are the eyes… I’d be lost without my eye poser, sitting there waiting for the combination of facial anim and eye position to happen.  I guess if I did it more often, I’d be better at it.  I look at other bloggers/photographers who do head shots all the time, and I marvel at their talent, their ability to capture a moment.  But for me, it’s just part of my “portfolio” and what keeps blogging interesting and fun! I will say that it took a while, but in the end I was definitely ready for my closeup!  😉

  • Makeup:  SlackGirl –  HD32 Eyeshadow.  Almost like jewelry for your eyes, this stunning shadow includes soft color for the lid plus a bold black catliner with what looks like little diamonds… adds so much to your look!  Includes 8 awesome shades in a HUD for AK & as system tattoos for BakesOnMesh.  Available at the Designer Circle 18/19 Sept 8th – 21st.  Demo available.  Also worn: Thay Deluxe Lashes
  • Jewelry:  Eclectica – Baroque Earrings.  Absolute stunners for your ears, these dressy earrings add gorgeous color & style to help frame your face.  Original mesh, these earrings are available in six beautiful colors. Each pack includes 3 pairs of earrings, with silver, gold & dark metal finishes; each has a slightly different gem color as well to give you some variety. The colors are all so gorgeous, you might have a hard time choosing… I know I did, but for a closeup I finally decided to match my eyes! But if you can’t make up your mind, there is a fatpack including alllll the colors! At the Designer Circle 18/19 Sept 8th – 21st.  Demo available.
  • Head:  Akeruka (AK) – Cleo, one of the new deluxe bento heads from AK
  • Skin:  theSkinnery – Giulia (Freckled version)

  • Freckles:  Izzie’s – Heart Mole & Freckles (Omega)

Bicycle for Two

Posted on by admin

http://Bicycle for Two

So I’m really sorry (and a bit ashamed) to admit that I seem to have gotten lazy when it comes to some parts of my blogging. I don’t have automatic backups (too costly), and after my one problem a long long time ago, I just drifted away from always putting a copy of my blog post text into a Word document. And today, I’m paying the price for that, because my blog post from the 18th — where I introduced Crichton — is gone.  Just gone. Error message 404!  So I had to stop everything in the midst of doing THIS post, and go back to try to recreate it as best I could — at least the credits, I didn’t even try to redo the introduction because I have no idea what was on my mind lol —  because it’s simply not fair to my sponsors that the post advertising their products has just gone poof.   Now that it’s all done and posted, Crichton and I are going to enjoy the rest of this beautiful day, and relax and forget about my oversight and the additional work it caused!  And yes, it’s a good lesson learned, but wow, is it ever frustrating! 😉

I’m wearing:

  • Outfit:  S&B Fashion – Bralette with Capris & Heels, 3 Colors; a perfect casual outfit for that perfect spring or summer day! The top is adorable — not too short, not too tight, just the right amount of sexy cute with a 3-color HUD. The capris are also just right — not too low, not too high, just the right height for the top.  And the shoes? Well, they’re just right too… a great wedge heel with a cork base & lacing up the back that adds the perfect finishing touch to an overall winning little outfit.  Sized for Tonic, Belleza F/I/V, Slink H/P, Maitreya, Ocacin, eBody, TMP, & Classic.  At the Designer Circle 08/19 April 14th – 27th. Demo available.
  • Body: Tonic – Curvy Beauty + Booty Control
  • Head:  Tonic – Abbi
  • Hair:  Argrace – Mayu
  • Brows:  DS’Elles – EyeBrow Series 8
  • Freckles:  Izzie’s – Freckles & Heart Mole (Omega); DS’Elles – Freckle Body (Belleza, Slink, Maitreya, Omega)
  • Nails:  Plastik Flagship – MadPea Iconic Heat Polish
  • Pose/Prop:  DS’Elles – Bike of Love w/ 3 Poses, FREE GIFT at Mystic Timbers location
  • Location:  My new home at Klamath Isles South

Crichton is wearing:

  • Outfit: Allure Couture – Levi Sweats in Brown, a great casual outfit consisting of a solid color Muscle Tank, plaid sweat pants, & canvas slip-on shoes.  Comfy & relaxed, goes just about anywhere, looks great. What else could a guy want?  Available in multiple colors, Levi is sized for Slink, Adam, Aesthetic, Jake, Gianni, TMP, & Classic bodies.
  • Body:  Slink – Physique Male Bundle Mesh Body, including Physique Body, Dynamic Hands, & Feet

Why So Blue?

Posted on by admin

http://Why So Blue?

I’ve been so happy, busily landscaping and setting up decor for both my new primary home and my island hideaway escape. My hideaway escape has undergone radical change since I first opened it. First off, I’m no longer alone… I’m now part of a collective or compound of sorts; incredible fun! Secondly, I knew that a 512 lot would never suffice… not only did I add another 512 for myself, but Crichton took an adjoining 1024, so I’ve had plenty to play with.  A prime position facing one of my nearest neighbors (NOT part of the collective lol!) is held by this awesome beach scene… I loved it so much I had it for blogging when the island was still just a growing thought… And now it’s all done and I get to lay in the sand, watch the horizon, and wonder why it’s all so blue… how absolutely delicious! 😉

The Anchor Tropical Scene:   Tm Creation– Beach tropical scene with rocks, anchor, flowers, stump, exotic plant, cormorant, toucan… everything you see but the trunk of the tree in the foreground and the boat in the background (and of course, me lying on the sand with shells).  The scattered leaves are included as a separate, optional item. This incredible scenic piece is absolutely perfect for any tropical setting.  It has everything, without being overwhelming.  Do note that it is decor only; there are no animations. It’s 100% Original Mesh, and fully copy/mod, so you can use as is or unlink all the pieces & use as you want.  Available EXCLUSIVELY at the Versus Event through April 30th at a 10% Discount; starting May 1st, it will be available at the main store.

I Wanna Sea Cruise

Posted on by admin

http://I Wanna Sea Cruise

Many years ago, I lived on a huge series of interconnected sims with lots of open sailable water.  In addition to having wonderful views of beautifully landscaped islands across the way, one of my greatest joys was to hop in a boat after a stressful day at work in RL, and cruise the waterways… looking at what other people had done with their property, marveling at the creativity (or on occasion, the lack thereof), imagining the breeze in our hair, and the feel of the spray on our skin. Then the sim owner split the sims into a checkerboard “for greater privacy”, boating was lost, and ever since it’s been one of those things we’ve talked about finding a way to do, but just never have. Until now.  As I said a few posts back, I recently purchased a tiny oasis connected to a sailable sea, and have been busy boat shopping whenever I can. It’s a lot harder than you think, especially when you’re dealing with very limited prims and space (some of these boats have more land impact than my lot can hold with nothing else on it lol!).  And because they’re SOOOO expensive, I do want to be sure that we get the best one for our needs… which means it not only looks good and is fun to drive, but is loaded with anims that make me look good too! We’ve narrowed it down to 4 choices, and I’m really pressing to make a decision.  Maybe it’s this one? Or this?  Or wait…  I think THIS is the one!!!!  😉

  • Outfit:  Wang – Kamily Skirt & Top, that looks almost like a dress.  The top is just a sexy little ruffle that’s waaaay-off-shoulder & then sheer netting; the skirt has some of the netting but adds lacing down the front. Includes 4 color options (see the ad below), so you can easily make this dressier or more casual & look awesome either way! Sized for Slink P/H, Belleza V/I/F, & Maitreya.  Just 99L at the Designer Circle 07/19 March 30th – April 13th. 
  • Shoes:  [Sheba] Creations – Helen Sandals, have that open summery look that can dress up or down, which makes them the perfect addition to every closet!  Includes a 50-texture HUD that lets you set a main color for the base of the shoe/heel & another for the “strips”; in sizes for Slink, Belleza, & Maitreya. Demo available.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Alexandria has a beautiful island feel, with very light freckles & moles (I, of course, add more!), beautiful shading around the eyes, & the barest dark pink gloss to the lips.  She’s so gorgeous & so indescribable, I included a pic below.  She’s based on the new Genus strong face (which frankly, I’m dying to have!), but since she’s an Omega skin, she looks simply glorious on LAQ & other mesh heads too.  She’s the EXCLUSIVE at the Designer Showcase that opens today, April 5th, with 14 skin tones available individually for just 175L each or 800L per fatpack of light/dark tones.  I’m wearing her in Cashew with the browless option.  Shape & demos also available. 
  • Body:  Slink – Physique Mesh Body Original, Full Version including Hands (Dynamic) & Feet
  • Head: LAQ – Athena (Bento)
  • Brows:  LAQ – Brows 1
  • Freckles & Moles:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Moles & Freckles; this Skin Fair exclusive of 28 options that apply as a face tattoo, sold singly or as a fatpack, is now available in store. I’m wearing my favorite (& what seems to be permanent mainstay) #5;  Izzie’s – Heart Mole (Omega); DS’Elles – Freckle Body (Belleza, Slink, Maitreya, Omega)
  • Hair: Lamb. – Sunshower
  • Eyes:  Avi-Glam (Marketplace Only) – Luminous Eyes, in Ivy
  • Jewelry: Maxi Gossamer – Parisienne Love Heart Necklace & Earrings; Chop Zuey – Bel Aire Gold Women’s Wedding Band
  • Location:  The Mesh Shop

Taking Abbi for a ride!

Posted on by admin

http://Taking Abbi for a Ride

This is the first time I’ve ever done my blog “on the road” so to speak. It’s been quite the challenge, from getting my laptop to allow me to save pictures (my virus protection was blocking it), to remembering/installing the name of the font for my “signature”, to getting access to my WordPress dashboard when everything that I had installed at home suddenly didn’t work when I was away.  I had been so worried about connectivity too; the last time I was here visiting my mom, the wifi had been at a snail’s pace and it was impossible to be in SL. They recently upgraded the community to fiber optics and wow, the difference is amazing! The speed is even better than I have at home, which is going to result in several phone calls when I return!! I guess I needn’t have worried about hitting my requirements and getting my blogs out on time, because it’s not an issue getting it out while away! And it’s been awesome being able to be in every night and just play around, which is perfect with so many events opening this week!!! I’ve been blogging and blogging Abbi, the new bento head from Tonic, in pre-release; but now eBento is here and so is Abbi!!!! YAY!!!! 😉

She’s fully mod & Omega-ready, so it’s easy to achieve the look you want, the look that’s uniquely “you”.  
  • Dress:  Marquesse – Flower Crop Jacket  in 5 different color options. All are sized for Tonic F/C, Belleza F/V, Slink H/Physique, Maitreya, Ocacin, Voluptuous, & Classic S/M/L.  At the Designer Circle 03/19 Feb 3rd – 16th. Demo available.

Sized for Tonic, Belleza F/I, Slink H/P, Maitreya, eBody, & Eve.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Baby is just what she sounds like, a young fresh skin. And Baby in pineapple (which is freckled & includes the no brow option) is the Stupid Cupid Hunt Gift available somewhere in the store through the 28th.  Other tones — like Oak Freckled, which I’m wearing in the Browless option — are also available for sale in the store.

Shopping with Santa

Posted on by admin

http://Shopping with Santa

I remember when I was a kid and I never knew what I was getting as gifts for the holidays.  Sometimes my sister and I would peek into the unwrapped boxes if we’d find them, but we’d always get things wrong. Nowadays, it’s rare that I’m surprised because I’m always asked to provide the dreaded list, while the fact is, if it’s something that I REALLY want, I’ve already gone out and bought it. Frankly I’d rather just be told here’s X amount of money; go out and spend it; which, when you come to think of it, is what gift cards are all about. It’s like Santa taking you shopping lol!  (though he generally doesn’t wait sullenly in the car!)  😉

  • Top:  Graffitiwear – NEW! Jill Frost Cropped Hoodie, choose from 3 different 10-texture HUDs ( darks, lights, & prints; once again, a tough choice on what to wear!); sizes for Tonic, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Ebody, TMP, Ocacin & Classic Fitmesh.

Jill Frost Skirt, two 10-texture HUDs (pastel or dark tones); sizes for Tonic, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Ebody, TMP, & Classic Fitmesh; snug, sexy fit without being too high or too low cut… perfect for any kind of top you might want to pair with it!

http://Is That Santa Coming?

I’m still not done with all my holiday shopping, and I’ll admit I haven’t even BEGUN to start wrapping up any gifts, but I’ll admit it… I’m ready for Santa. Maybe the Grinch has just got me in his grip for a day or two, maybe it’s the birthday blues, maybe I’m just tired of all the non-stop Christmas this and Christmas that and the TRAFFIC and the CROWDS, but right now, this moment, I’ve had enough.  (And yes, this happened with Halloween too; maybe it’s just because everything and everyone just goes so overboard and it’s just such constant bombardment day in and day out. I recovered at Halloween; hopefully I’ll recover now too!) So yes, I’m looking to see if Santa is coming, cuz I don’t know about you, but I’M READY!!!  (At least I’m not saying “Bah Humbug!” and I’m definitely dressing — and blogging — in the Xmas spirit!)  😉

A Toast to SL Christmas Expo 2018

Posted on by admin

http://A Toast to SL Christmas Expo

The minute I knew I was going to blog both Chance and Miranda, the two formal holiday outfits in this photo — which are BOTH 100% donation items for Relay for Life at SL Christmas Expo 2018!!!!, I had a vision in my head… and no, it wasn’t of sugarplums dancing, it was actually pretty close to what I ended up achieving. That’s pretty rare… the vision generally morphs slightly due to necessity or ends up veering off into a totally different direction.  And I really do have to give special thanks to the sim Let It Snow! for such success in this case, because I’ll admit that I’d almost given the vision up after having completed two photo shoots at other sims when the owner gave me temporary rezzing privileges so that I could use my own couples pose here at Let It Snow! at what I felt in my heart was absolutely the one-and-only perfect pavilion for this shot. Thank you, thank you, thank you Milly!

Thanks also to my good friend Nick Patrono, who volunteered to stand in and model for Chance. I think Nick did a fabulous job, which is why the next champagne toast (yes, it’s off-camera) was to him! Thanks Nick for being my other half in this shot, and looking so good at it!!! 🙂

  • Men’s Suit: Allure Couture – Chance, sizes for Classic Mesh XL to XS. TMP, Slink, Adam, Signaure Gianni Aesthetic and Belleza Jake.  100% DONATION EXCLUSIVE until end of Expo, then will be released in a full line of different colors perfect for all your holiday & New Year celebrations. Includes shoes for Classic, Adam, Aesthetic, Belleza and Gianni (socks too for Classic avis).  Here’s your taxi to Allure at Expo!

and I’m wearing…

  • Gown: Allure Couture – Miranda, a bit of old-fashioned formal style with her cloak & gloves, but definitely an elegant yet sexy modern look. Sized for Tonic, Freya, Venus, Slink Physique & Hourglass, & Maitreya; includes gold high heels for Belleza, Maitreya & Slink. 100% DONATION EXCLUSIVE until end of Expo, then will be released in a full line of different colors perfect for all your holiday & New Year celebrations.  Would look fabulous for those cozy little sleigh rides or caroling with your beau!  Here’s your taxi direct to the store, Allure at Expo!
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Itske, worn in Butter, browless; I keep wearing this BEAUTIFUL new skin available in 7-packs of light or dark skin tones including a no-brow option for either Genus & LAQ (I’m wearing my favorite light tone for LAQ using the no-brow option); shapes & demos also available, Itske is still currently EXCLUSIVE at the Sense Event from Nov 15th to Dec 8th
  • Body: Tonic – Curvy Beauty (I have to say that in this shot you can really see the effect of Tonic’s “Booty Control”, a little add-on that lets you further customize the shape of your butt… I use “up & out +1″… LOVE IT!)

  • Hair: D!va – Gracie in Garnet

Hello curvy world!

Posted on by admin

Although I’ve been in SL for more than 10 years, I only recently converted to a mesh body. For the first time, I’m free to look exactly the way I want… not a cookie-cutter shape, not a “skinny mini”, but uniquely curvy to my own individual taste. From the day I first put on my Tonic Curvy, I’ve NEVER taken it off (at least, not intentionally!). But fashion is decidedly different when you’re full-figured, in real life AND in Second Life. Clothes don’t hang as pictured, and rather than enhance those sexy curves, sometimes they just look dumpy. And although Tonic sizes are becoming more common, I still feel triumphant when I discover one that’s worth my precious lindens (not to mention a spot in my Appearance closet lol). And that brings us to the launch of Ceja’s Curvy Chic, where I’ll share my experience of the Trials and Tribulations of being curvy in Second Life… and put my shopaholic tendencies to communal use!
