Armed Face

Fashion for life a fundraising event for Relay for Life will start today. On 10 sims designers show their latest creations and help raising money for cancer research. But Fashion for Life is way more. There are events as runway shows as well as live djs. The range of items at this event is very wide. There are of course women's outfits as well as clothing for men and children. Even hair and posemakers take part. The official website contains way more detailed information.

The Sehr eye device from Crie Style is one of the most awesome items which are sold at fashion for life. It is made of unrigged mesh so it is possible to move it a bit but it is not possible to make it smaller. The device looks like a sight device with added projectiles worn directly at the head. It is an item which most likely is awesome for roleplay and besides of that also looks very good.
The skin and the shape come from Deluxe Body Factory while the dress is being made by [sYs].
The Sadie hair comes from Wasabi Pills. It is a very playful hair style with braids and a ponytail at the side of the head. The pose has been made by purple poses.

Hunger

The sound she made when she moved was slight but he could nearly feel her boredom and even more her hunger. But they had just arrived in the town and now they would need to wait until the furniture they had ordered would be brought into their house. The house was new as well. When it would be fully furnished there would be nothing in it which had ever been used by a human. It was difficult enough to have to deal with items which had been build by them. But with the time the marks left by humans would fade and the house would feel like it should and not give them the feeling of being surrounded by food. If they would have known what it means to be human they would have described the feeling like starving while being surrounded by the smell of wonderful food without being able to see or even eat it. Not that it was about smell. They were not vampires.
Still they lusted for humans. But now they had to wait he was not willing to leave the house before it was not completed. Which meant he would need to distract her but there was no reason why demons should not have fun as well.


The whole female outfit is built around a collar 22769 is selling in a gatcha at an event called L'accessories. It is a unrigged mesh item which can be addjusted and used as a eyecatcher. To balance the outfit it is needed to keep the rest of it rather calm, for example by just using a reduced amount of colours. The corset from Ison is very well made and the skirt from hucci is short enough to make sure that the boots, which hucci is selling at collabor 88, are seen as boots not as some kind of leggins. The Mia hair from Wasabi Pills creates a very dramatic look. It is made of rigged mesh. On both avatars horns from Cerridwen's Cauldron are used. They are available in a gatcha at their store. It is possible to choose the colour of the horn as well as the colour of the glow. Here both are white. The horns are made of unrigged mesh and it is possible to edit them to make them fit. On him the hair also comes from Wasabi Pills. It is the Teeloh hair which is inspired by the German singer Tilo Wolf. The hair is also available for females. To have a more interesting look at the shaved part a tattoo layer from Jomo has been added. They have several with different patterns. The eyes are mesh eyes from A:S:S Vision called Naga which look like reptile eyes and are great for roleplay. The skin comes from Nivaro. At the same store there are also additional tattoo layers with beards sold. The clothes are being sold at the mens dept and come from epia. The suit is made of rigged mesh and comes in one piece. There are three sizes included. The shoes are not rigged and have a resize script.
The big picture in the background is made by Spyralle and sold at Futurewave, an event which will end tomorrow. The Voronoi House from 22769's Furniture/House line Bauwerk can also be bought at future wave or directly on their sim. It is a low landimpact mesh house with beautifuly detailed windows and asymetrical windows. The stonegarden on the terrace is a pretty and unique add-on. The Beanbags are being sold by Apple Fall on the Collabor88 event. They include several poses. The kitchen which is seeable on the side on some pictures comes from Kuso.
The used poses come from Captivity Co., Ma Vie and Purple poses. Especially the suitcase poses are great for travel or moving themed pictures.

Caretakers

The wind made slight sounds while blowing through the leaves. But there was an other sound, the soft sound of creaking old moss covered twigs. For a moment the sound stopped and a woodden hand reached out to pick up a leaf which had fallen into the water. The leaf was turned to the side and bathed in bright white light for a moment then it started to age quickly until only crumbs of soil rested on the bark. The sound of the slow steps started again. They moved over to a tree then the being started to collect seeds.
After a while it seemed to be satisfied with the loot and went on. It bent over and started to poke one of it's long fingers into the ground until the digged hole was big enough for one of the seeds. Apparently it was searching for a fitting spot to plant the just obtained seeds. With every seed it planted it seemed to move slower and also the light in the middle of it's body seemed to glow less bright. Until it completely stopped to move. For some moments it stood completely still then suddenly there was a movements. The toes grew until they started to root in the ground. The light inside the being started to glow again and life returned to it. Until it started to continue it's path through the forest taking care of the trees.
The Tinderlings from Cerridwen's Cauldron remind on golems made of wood, eventually driven by the sigil on their forhead. They are complete mesh avatars with the posibility to adjust some of their features, for example the colour of the sigil, their eyes and also of the light in their inside. They are materials ready and it is possible to choose between several kinds of textures for the eyes. The hud which is being used to make those changes also allows to form the hands to fists and to decide if the included particle effects should be used or not. The sounds of the Tinderlings is an other speciality of those avatars. When moving they sound like twigs hitting on each other in the wind and when chatting there is the sound of wind blowing through the forest. The Tinderlings will be available in three different versions: Forest Tinderlings, Mushroom Tinderlings, and Boreal Tinderlings . Each of those is available in the size of an average avatar and a tiny.

An elephant journey

The first time Jiiarale had heard about the garden was when she was still a little child. Some of the women in the harem had talked about the rumor that there was a place where they could live without having to serve. At this time Jiiarale had not even known what it meant to serve but when she grew older and learned the important rules - for women - in life the idea of the garden returned to her mind.

Most of her sisters disappeared when they reached a certain age, Jiiarale did not want to allow others to determine her future so she started to read a lot. And finally one night she found a book which contained all the information about the garden and how to get there. But it would be a long journey. She did not want to go alone so she started to try to talk with her sisters but it seemed like they would not even want to think so making a plan about how to escape was far from their minds. In her lonelyness she started to spend time with watching her fathers elephants and one day she realized that one of them was supposed to have a similar fate as hers. It was planed to give Geena away to the sovereign of the neighbour country and then Jiiarale learned that she was supposed to go there as well. She needed to flee and now that she had more pressure to come up with a plan her mind started to work faster.
 At the end she was surprised how easy it was for Geena and her - and also Geena's calf - to escape the guards who were supposed to bring her to the neighbour country. And then they started to travel on their real journey. Jiiarale had not supposed that Geena would be willing to come with her but it seemed like the elephant knew that she had nothing bad in mind. For a long time their days consisted out of endless hours in sun or rain which never seemed to end. While the elephants seemed to become stronger with every day Jiiarale became more and more exhausted. So Geena wrapped her trunk around her at one day and placed her on her back. From then they started to travel faster.

The sun was low when they finally reached the garden. But both elephants and the women knew that there would be many days of sunshine would follow.


Elephants are some of the cutest beings on earth. So seeing that Bare Rose made rideable elephants was just great. The elephants are available in a black and a white version. Each of those packs contains a special Elephant riding ao, an adult elephant with saddle and one without and an additional baby elephant. The elephants are attached to the avatar and when running the ao it looks like the avatar is riding on them.
Apsara has a wide range of asian outfits. All of those are available in a wide range of rich colours. The scarf and the long shirt are both made of mesh. The bottom of the pants is made of non rigged mesh, while the rest of the pants is a normal clothing layer pant. This makes it easy to combine those.
The Shiki Hair from Wasabi Pills looks like a looly bound ponytail with some decorations. It is possible to tint the hairclips as well as the hairband with a hud, which is contained in the pack.
The pictures have been taken at Ode. One of second life's most beautiful garden sims.

Secrets of the sea

Deep waters did not speak. At least not with the ones Lucille did not want to know her secrets. It had been ten years ago when she met the waterman. She still did not know why she dared to go swimming in the lake although she was not a secure swimmer at all. But the heat at that day had been nearly unbearable and the water was delightful until there was something around her ankle which felt like a hand and pulled her down to the depth. She remembered how she wanted to scream when she saw the being which had pulled her down. Somehow her will to fight him seemed to have impressed him or he simply did not think that she was too tasty, or he had a completely different reason to pull her to a small rock island too far from the shore that she could have even thought that there would be a way to escape. There he offered her a deal. She would bring him humans of her choice and in exchange he would let her go and also supply her with items of worth he found in the deepth. Since then she traded everything he brought her. No matter if it were pretty shells, old coins or drug packets the best was it was so easy to get rid of everybody who was in her way. 
The fantasy Gatach event will end very soon. 22769 made the Helice dress for it. It can be worn in roleplay as well as for afternoon events. The skirt is made to look like it consists of very big leaves. The used skin, shape and the eyes come all from Mirror's Enigma. It is their new Stella skin. There is makeup for the skin available as well. The scarf is an old huntgift from bubble, and although it is not made of mesh it looks great. The morgan hair from Wasabi Pills is a great undercut hair, which goes well with modern outfits but can be used also to bring a break to classical outfits. The heels come from L'aph and are available in a wide range of colours. The used pose is available at purple poses.

Trapped

Some day she would have her own little cafe. At least that was what she had been planing. For years, actually for many years. But this would only happen when the debt was payed. The debt which she had with those smugglers who brought her out of the lands she had been born in.

But this would take the same time again. Maybe if she would find an other job. But what could she do. There was hardly anything she had learned or which was able to stick in her mind besides of how to make coffee. Making contracts with coffeehouse demons was really not the best idea. On the other hand she could have gotten worse contracts, the accounting demons were always searching for new victims.

Auxiliary takes part in the rack this weekend. For this they made a sweater and a scarf both of rigged mesh. The sweater is wide enough to be combined with mesh pants as for example the hotpants from 22769. Those are available in several colours in their mainstore.The legwarmers come also from Auxiliary and are sold in a gatcha vendor at the side of the store. There are demos available so that it is possible to check which size fits best before using the gatcha. The horns also come from an Auxilary gatcha. They are made of nonrigged mesh with some lovely perl bands wrapped around them.
The hair is an other gatcha item. It is being sold at the legion project. There is a wide range of colours available.

Dead Actress

The smoke escaped her lips in rings which slowly drifted through the room. She reached out and started to balance one of them on the tip of her finger. Her nails destroying the sensitive structure. Waiting was something she used to hate but she had spend so much time of her life with waiting so that it was nearly like home for her. At least way more home than the house an expensive intereur decorator had furnitshed for her. It was nice. And it impressed others. There was nothing else she could wish for. At least it was not empty.
When she started to become popular she would have been surprised when hearing what she would archieve.
But with every role she played she lost more of herself. Until she was nothing but a blank page.
It is hard to find a mix of clothes which looks elegant while having that slight hint of darkness. The mesh boots from slink are perfect to create this kind of look. Being available for some time now they managed to become basics which shouldn't be missing in any second life closet. Years ago Mijn Seoung the owner and designer of mijn.bötique made some very well textured bodysuits. A good reason to have now and then a look on her creations. Going with the technology she creates now lovely mesh items. For example this combination of a top and a short skirt. It is available in other colours as well and comes of course in the standard sizes.
The furniture is also made of mesh and comes from Apple Fall. The design is modern and all items very well created and textured.
The hair has been of course created by Wasabi Pills. It is called Nikki and sold at Cinema. The look suits every dramatic actress. The poses from Purple Poses are sold at the same event. The set even includes a cigarette holder.


Dress: mijn.botique / Mesh / Peplum Dress (neonblue) (100 L$)
Hair: /Wasabi Pills/ Nikki Mesh Hair (1500 L$ for fatpack 250 L$ colourpack sold at Cinema)

In Aqua

It was time for the opening. Nistra Ophelia Sami had a good feeling. And so did her little friends. They were running the salon for private music recommondations now for some years and with every year they got more customers. Many of them were musicians who had lost their creativity. Nistra somehow knew what to let them listen to inspire them. It was a rare talent and so she could have been able to demand high rates. Of course she didn't do so. Helping musicians to create what they could do best was what she had been born for. Now and then people in extra fancy clothes visited her little store and tried to make her work with them. She rarely was willing to do so. Not because she disliked the record companies those people worked for more because the effects she caused on the people they sent to her were to odd. At least in her opinion. It was like she made them burn so that they made one or two songs which were nice and after that even she wasn't able to inspire them anymore. And who had ever heard about a muse who cared to create one hit wonders?
The wonderfully creative and talented Aphrodite Outlander is back to the grid not only to move her first store Perse (which had some really great boots) to the marketplace but also to open a new store for mesh clothes : L'APH. The fleur grande dress is one of the first releases from there. It comes in all the standard sizes and is available in a wide range of coulors. For those who love shades of blue and green the blue dress is perfect. It has a pink border which allows to combine it with accessories and shoes in the same tone. The ones used for the outfit are pretty old but still great and come from Ingenue. Being made of sculpts their price is reasonable.
Booshies does not only take part in the finding fab free hunt. They also got new Lil'PetZ in their gatcha. The pet on the head is called Fentrili and in 6 different versions in the gatcha while the one on the shoulder is called Girecko and the gift in the finding fab free hunt which will run till the end of september.
The hair is made by Wasabi Pills. It is unrigged mesh hair which allows to resize it. The hair comes with a hud which allows to choose different colours for the hairslides. The cut goes as well with kawaii style as with business outfits.
The poses belong to one of the latest releases from Purple Poses.

Items:
Dress: -L'APH- Fleur Grande Dress Blue (299 L$)
Hair: /Wasabi Pills/ Noriko Mesh Hair  (1500 L$ for fatpack 250 L$ colourpack)

Dragonbreed

Their whispers wandered through the cave. Slight questions and answers were exchanged then finally not only their hands touched but also the wyrms they carried on their heads. Informations flew from one to an other. And they were one again.

Being apart was always a pain for them and so were the moments when they met again. Akalaia the female one had not managed to stand the pain and fallen onto the soft wet ground so that her companion had to help her up again. He felt weak himself but tried to force himself not to feel the pain because he knew that she would feel it too which would make everything way worse.

It was surprising enough that they still were alive. Ages ago when their kin and the wyrms had managed to nearly kill each other they decided to have ambassadors who would be both wyrm and Nyroyama. So each year the most sensitive children were choosen and forced to unite their mind with a wyrm. Most of them did not survive, the shock of feeling an other mind in their mind was too much for them, others who survived the first shock were not able to stand the pain the foreign thoughts created in them. The feeling of bathing in fire and swimming in lava was nothing they were able to deal with. But some of them managed to realize that the wyrms were forced as they were and managed to find a way to communicate with them. Not that they were able to teach anybody. Every connection was unique. Those were the ones who became ambassadors between the Nyroyama and the Wyrms. Sometimes like in their case they connected somehow to one of those who went through the time of the first massive pain with them. Not that they ever were alone together. The wyrms never left them.
Xoph does not only create the best tentacles in second life. They also normaly take part in the twisted hunt. This time their huntgift is an awesome mix of a dragon and horns. It looks like a bonedragon would be sitting on the head between two impressive horns. The item is resizeable and the set contains a set for normal avatars and one for petites.
At Xoph you actually do not have to search for the twisted cube. You need to solve a ride which includes finding totems which give you some answers. At the end you need to find somebody whom you tell those answers and who gives you the huntgift in exchange. It is fun and there are some cool items to play with in the store. And who wouldn't like falling through a tunnel of lava or to find a path through disappearing stepstones?
RokumeikaN also takes part in this hunt. Their gift is a complete outfit called Knight of Darkness. It suits men as well as women. All primparts have a resizescript, the textures are very well made.
An other great hunt started today. Finding Fab free celebrates 5 years of the FabFree Blog and many stores take part in this. For example A:S:S who made a dragonskin tattoo layer and dragon eyes (made of mesh) as hunt gifts.

The couple pose used in the  picture comes from exposeur and the single poses are both available at purple poses.

Seawitch

Bubbles were floating through the big room. Later it would be crowded with people. Sarfenia was satisfied with the decorations. There wasn't too much of it and still everything looked nice.
She was already dressed for the party. As normaly she was mainly wearing green. A green dress, green shoes and she had even used moss to make her antlers green. Normaly those were white and reminded on bones but that wouldn t have fitted to the dress. And it would maybe have scared possible guests away. Seawitches were not to popular. A reason for this might have been their massive thirst for blood an other their love for war and a third their yearning to be rich. The last one was the most important one in Sarfenia's life. It helped her to have all the interesting ideas. The bar had been her last one. In combination with a little bit of magic it allowed seapeople to look for some hours like humans and to do all the things they thought humans would do. 22769 created some wonderful classic dresses for the vintage fair. The Jacky ones go well for business as for taking tea with a friend. They are made of mesh and the pack contains all five standard sizes. Besides green the dress is also available in blue, red and black.
Despite having a fantasy origin Wasabi Pills made some hair which makes every woman to somebody a future mother in law likes. The Veronica hair has that certain mix of being open and still classy. The Daisy high heels are one of the latest releases from Miamai. The shoes are available in many colours and made of mesh. Skins from Mirror's Enigma normaly come with fitting great shapes and is the same with their Socordia skin. The sets contain three shapes which are very well made. The skin itself is cute and versatile.
Poses are always important for pictures. The one used for those belongs to the Stella set by Purple Poses. It is currently sold at the Fashion Voodoo.
The background is the Water Disco by Garden of Dreams. It  looks like a underwater club. Being made of 274 prims it comes with dance poles, dancing animations and places to sit. It is a great place for pictures and to hang out with friends.

Escaping Thoughts

A bird softly hit the window after some few moments it found the opening and managed to escape. More were allready escaping her brush. This meant it was time again. She should go back to work. If she didn t put them onto paper or an other material the things she had in her fingers escaped. At the moment it were only birds but she remembered the bread which had escaped very well. It tried to pose on a rock and it took quite a while until she managed to catch it. The birds would only confuse some biologiests and this was something she didn't mind at all. The latest round of Zombie Popcorn brand started today. The mesh dress by Epic is one of the items which is being sold there. It is available in four colours and each of them contains five sizes of the dress. It can be mixed easily with other items to go for a more grunge like style when combining it with battle boots and wristbands or when using sweeter accessories it fits great to a girlish look.
The idea of beings escaping a brush is just lovely. It comes from DownDownDown and is being sold at the gallery gift store. It is also the anniversary of this very cute event. So there is currently a hunt going on.
The hair is a hairfair release by wasabi pills. It reminds a bit on their teeloh hair but this one has a braid instead of open hair. The hairband can be tinted with the help of a hud.
Losthaven is an amazing store when it comes to clothes and more for roleplay. For example the armwraps on the picture. They can be mod (the set includes a version for guys and one for girls) and come in several colours. The brilliance of items from this stores is grounded by how versatile everything is. The armwraps go as well for postapocalyptic roleplay as well as for medivial storylines.
The make up was an item in a previous event and comes from Sweet Antidote, the boots are available at Death Row Designs.
The used pose comes from Purple Poses.

Black sun

The sun was high on the sky when she reached the builds. It was the weekend of the year when they would honor those who had died before them. The path had been long. So she was wearing comfy boots. Now that she had arrived she recognized that she must be one of the first. Later the area would be filled with people. All dressed in black. Elegant but silent.

It is Relay for Life weekend. For this last big relay for life in second life event this year many creators set up amazing builds. The one the pictures have been taken at is "The Dancing Sun" by Alia Baroque - who is not only the owner and creator of Fallen Gods Inc. but also supporting Relay for Life for years. The built will be only seeable this weekend which makes it even more special.
The dress on the picture comes from tomoto. I like how it looks elegant but still playful because of the frills.
The troy boots from Muism have been blogged before but they also work on females as they have a resize script. They are a gift in the make him over hunt which ends today.

Time to rock

The light was perfect. Just pink and yellow like he loved it. Those were the colours he always prefered even on the arrow which had been painted on his cheek by a girl he maybe would lay after the show. Well if he would manage to remember her name. It was now three years ago that they had released their first album and the time since then had been like a dream. Sometimes he was afraid that he would wake up soon but it never happened. The shows were fun although he was normaly so drunken that he hardly ever remembered them. It was now three years ago that they had released their first album and the time since then had been like a dream. Sometimes he was afraid that he would wake up soon but it never happened. The shows were fun although he was normaly so drunken that he hardly ever remembered them.
 Sometimes it is fun to style in a special way for example as glam rocker. The ziggy makeup from 22769 is great for this. It is available in many colours and looks great in any of them. To complete the look there are currently some neat items available in the make him over hunt. You need to be member of the huntgroup to be able to get those. The Bone Leather Jacket from BC322 for example. It is made of mesh and comes in several sizes. There is of course an alphalayer included. The boots from Muism are an other great gift in this hunt. They are extremly well made and remind a bit on tanker boots. The guitar and the microphone plus the speakers are all gifts from a store called Witch Babe. They sell many guitars and in the video below you can see the awesome dance which is included in the ao which comes with it. Tableau Vivant takes part in the Femboy Hunt. The gift is a skin which cost 2 Lindens. Purple poses made a set of guitar poses and the static one used for the pictures is one of them. It is possible to buy it with guitar but the poses themself also work with other guitars. Wasabi Pills made a lot of mesh hair. The Hawk one is great for fantasy styles but also great for rockers.

Dance with demons

The club was the most popular one in the town. People came from all over the country just to have a look at it. Of course most of them had no chance to get past the doorman. Often there was somebody screaming in anger and this was one of the reasons for the existance of the club. Humans were so entertaining when they were angry. And eventhe recation of those who were allowed to go into the club were delicious. The club had been founded by Sabitha. Some called her the queen of the night. Her crown was famous and rumors that it wouldn't be a crown but horns triggered even more interest. She herself mainly loved pink and the feeling of souls falling around her.

The Inferno Horns from Wasabi Pills are available for a long time. But its rare to see them in other colours than the dark tones. There are actually 12 textures to choose with the help of a script inbuilt into the horns. A nice addition is the possibility to choose how much grey should be added. The texture used for the horns on the picture is the neon pink one. The unrigged mesh hair also comes from Wasabi Pills. The version on the picture has only been available for a limited time but it is of course still available in the normal Wasabi Pills colours. The whole outfit is kept in pink. The dress with the jacket are made of mesh and come from 22769. It is available in the standart sizes. The textures used are very pretty especially the ones on the jacket make one imagine how the fabric would feel in reality. The combination of the jacket and the dress cause that the outfit looks elegant although the dress is pretty short.  It could go well at an elegant party or at an evening at the beach. There are also other colours available. Currently the outfits are sold at the ArisAris Summer Fashion Festival. The pink clutch is also an item from 22769 but not available in this colour anymore.
A demon would be nothing without some claws and the ones from ni.ju are not only available in several colours it is also possible to tint the colours of the nails. To go with the outfit the ones on the picture are the white ones with nails tinted in pink.
Ingenue does not only create wonderful dresses, their shoes are always worth a try. And of course this outfit needed classy shoes in a fitting colour. The Gatsby Heels in fushcia are the perfect choice. They are made of mesh and look business like.
Without good poses it would not be possible to take good pictures. The one used for this one comes from Purple Poses. It is sold at the current Zombie Popcorn Carnival.
The skin and shape come both from Adam and Eve.

Im your dog

It was a beautiful day. Eliza had spend it at the beach. The people there knew her allready. She was that girl with the bone. Thats what they called her. It was wrong. The truth was she was the dog with the bone who looked like a girl. She never talked much the bone was also a good excuse. It was the only which she still had from her first owner. It was in the late 1970ties when they met. Eliza had run away from her mother and the fellow puppies as those always pestered her. And somehow a magician found her. It was the time when people said that they would believe in magic but in truth only believed in powerful drugs. The perfect time for a true magician to live less like an hermit. With her dogmind Eliza wasn't able to understand what really was going on but then her owner transformed her. Maybe because he thought that it would be horrible to see her die so soon as dog years are so much shorter than human years or because of reasons a normal human could not imagine. Changing the shape also changed Eliza. She became smarter but the rites of the humans still were a mystery to her. And some habits she simply couldn't change. She still loved to chew on bones and was as faithful as only a dog could be. Of course it was her master who died first. Some hippies finally found out that the tricks he showed them were real and killed him when he was not willing to abuse his powers. Since then she was alone. With the time she learned to deal with her human body quite well but still she didn't manage not to carry now and then a bone around. 
The Gallery Gift Shop is one of the cutest monthly events in second life. Its a mix of a gallery and a shopping event. Kumaki Glasses Style is one of the stores which take part in it for a long time. For this round of the event they made a bone which is worn between the lips. It has a tag on it which says "Im your dog". The bone is made of non rigged mesh. So are the crowns which are worn around the wrists from DownDownDown. The set is available in a metalic version and one which reminds on water. The outfit is the current groupgift from 22769, a store which besides this also takes part in the Gallery Gift shop. The gift is an alternative looking outfit for guys and girls. It includes a top which can be worn with and without primsleeves, trousers and a belt. The boots come from Duh! and are currently available at the Zombie Popcorn Brand event. They have of course a resizescript and include not only an alphalayer but also invisible prims for those who do not use a viewer which can handle alphas.
The design with the tattoos on it is great and they are even unisex.
The pose on the first picture and the scooter on the second picture are available on the same event. The pose comes from Purple Poses and the scooter from !Bang. The scooter includes six poses. Its a loveply poseprop which has to be rezzed which makes it possible to use for photographers. The only problem I had dealing with it was that I didn't understand the notecard with the posesettings inside of it so I was not able to adjust the poses. But it looks very lovely and I guess with a bit testing it should work to adjust the poses. It is possible to test the scooter in the store.
The Hair from Wasabi Pills is called Lola. It is made of rigged mesh. The set includes it in a boobs and a normal version although its rigged for women so its more a bigger and a not so big boobs version. It also comes with a hud which allows to choose between 15 designs for the scarf and 14 for the bands which hold the braids together.
The skin and the shape come both from Adam and Eve. The shape was a gift there sometime ago and isn't available anymore but the skin still is.  It is called Victoria and the used version is the sunkissed one.

The pictures have been taken at Lost Beach.

In a painting

Turning around she had to recognize that she was missing most of her shadow. The world was surreal like it was only held together by a few strokes of a brush. Niamath knew what it meant. She had not secured her mind when going to sleep. For some moments she was shocked. Everybody could make mistakes but not her. The pace of her heart started to become faster at least she thats what she thought she was feeling but being caught in a painting meant that she had no controll over her body. Niamath was not able not to appreciate the style of the artist who caught her. The elegance of the style was impressive. But this was the wrong time to admire art. The war of painters was going on now for months. Many had been killed about questions of light, details and even not managing to agree about how to hold a brush could cause a slaughtering. The most effective was was to catch the oponent in a picture and then to simply let their body starve while the mind was not able to escape. Some had become insane in pictures and had been released or had managed to find a way out. But they were not a big help in developing strategies about how to escape out of a picture. As pretty the picture was she knew that it would make her insane having to see it for longer than a day and if that wouldn t happen her body would die within the next four days. It was hard to fight the urge to cry but now knowing how connected her body was still to her mind she didn't want to loose any liquid.  When her hand moved up to her head in the urgent need to stroke over her forehead to keep herself calm she felt the feathers of the collar of her shirt. One moment she recognized that she was standing in a lake of ink. The feeling of hope started to grow in her chest but she knew that she would need something to paint on.
....
The marks never disappeared from her skin. But they were what most people wanted to see when they met Niamath for the first time. Especially the door on her arm fascinated people. It was what they called the opening to peace. She was the first one who had managed to paint herself out of a picture. Knowing this people started to carry a pencil some colours and - if they did not want to be marked  -  some paper into their dreams and they were always able to escape.
The third zombie popcorn brand wave started and Wasabi Pills made a most lovely mesh hair for it. Its a pony tail with some nice braids on the front of the head. The hair fits to many different looks from playful to elegant. The blue top and the pants come from miamai. The pants have been released at Culture Shock which ends today but are also avialable in the Miamai store now. Being made of mesh there are the five standart sizes included in the set as well as an alphalayer. The pants have the typical sophisticated and elegant maimai style. They are available in various colours and prints. The ones in black like on the picture are great to combine them with more colourful clothes as they fit to nearly everything. The top and collar originally belong to the Loue dress in springblue. But they go very well also just as top. On the picture they are worn together with the pants of the dress. The collar is mod. This dress is only available on the marketplace.
The leather belt has been used to give the whole outfit an edge. It comes from bitch, which is a clothing store for mesh items for women by the rustica owner Maxwell Graf. As it is not rigged it is possible to resize the belt.
The poses come from Purple Poses. They belong to the Alexia set which is also only available at the Zombie Popcorn Brand event at the moment.
The pictures have been taken at a sim named China. It looks like being in a traditional japanese/chinese painting. Its a stunning sim and worth a visit.

Surprise in the morning

The sound of the waves was calming but none the less the feeling of dew on her skin wasn't something Martha enjoyed. For some moments she curled together trying to hide her bare feet deeper in the wide pants she was wearing. After some more minutes of uncalm sleep she realized that she was at the wrong place. This was definitly not her or Phil's home. Slowly she pushed herself up. The pain in her head made her regret this. But while pressing her eyes together she forced herself to get on her feet. It wasn't a big surprise that the rest of her body did ache as well. The veil was something which surprised her. There was dirt on it so Martha supposed that she had used it as cushion or blanket. Not that this was important. She was wearing a veil, didn't remember what had happened during the night it was clear that it finding out what happened in the night would be way less fun than those things she forgot.
Miamai's latest relase is a wonderful brideswear collection. Of course it is outstanding,especially the Marlene Outfits. This consits of elegant meshtrousers (in standard sizes) with a frilled top and a big veil and also fitting upper sleeves. The upper part of the veil and the sleeves are made of unrigged mesh so its possible to resize them. The lower part of the veil is made of flexi prim which allows it to move.
The red hair comes from Wasabi Pills. It's the Dragon Hair which is very versatile.
Purple Pose released a set of pinup poses. The pose on the first picture belongs to those.
Adornotropia, the sim where the picture have been taken is not officially open yet. But it is allready possible to visit it. If you have a chance to do so take a ride in the rollercoster.

Holidays in the Sand

The sand was nearly glowing while the wind blew it through the valley. It was like it should be. The air was hot and cured sorrows and lung problems. Sina would spend two more days in the dessert. It was her holiday. One week without any people just surrounded by sand. The food was delivered by a robot at five times a day and it also brought drinks. It was what she needed. At least that was what the computers said and Sina didn't care. They sent her anyways always where they wanted her to be. And a dessert was better than the holidays she had to spend in a galaxy entertainment spacestation. The fantasy faire will end today. So this day is the last chance to do the wonderful Faireland Saga hunt to win items like this wonderful Skybox made by Garden of Dreams. It has around 240 prims and a wonderful desert inside. Those skyboxes are like little worlds made to enjoy. There are even several poses inbuilt into the tent.
The clothes worn on the picture are released in the latest Zombiepopcorn Brand round. They come from Blah. Both, the top and the shorts come on all layers which even includes the tattoo layer. The bands of the pants are made of prims. 
Top: Blah. (My Relaxing Spring Top) (100 L$ sold at Zombiepopcorn Brand)

Lovely Pet

The neighbours tried from time to time to complain about the strange sounds, which were located on the balcony. It never helped. Hestor hadn't served for centuries in hell just to let humans ruin his retirement. He always had dreamed of spending time on a calm island after having finished the years of work he owed some demonlords. But also wanted to live close enough to humans to be able to corrupt one or two of them to his own pleasure. He had two choices either he would bring people to a calm island or he would bring an calm island to a town. Knowing his obsession for all kind of entertainment a town offered he prefered the second. So he somehow transported a part of an island onto the balcony of his flat. Luckily the walls were high enough so people were not able to see much of it. Unfortunatly he also brought a aligator egg with the rest of the island. And when the aligator hatched Hestor wasn't able to resist its cuteness. He had to keep him. So he decided to call the aligator Pinky and Pinky grew fast. Hestor was not worried about it. He had dealt with way bigger beasts and he loved his aligator as much as a demon was able to love. Hestor did his best to get meat for Pinky and even tried to teach her - he had found out that the Aligator was female - how to eat well mannered as he always dreamed about taking her out to dinner. But Pinky was not able to learn those things at all. She kept eating very very loud. Not that Hestor cared of course it would have been nice to go out with the aligator but there were other jolly things he could do without Pinky. Only the neighbours were a bit annoying as they complained about the sounds Pinky made while eating. But with the time Hestor had less and less neighbours. Ursula allready blogged many of the lovely things De la Soul released to the Fantasy Faire. This demon is a mix of some of their items. The Wings, Horns, Feet and shape belong to the purple demon set. This set also contains a skin and ears. The skin is one of the relay for life donation items from the same store. I really like the patterns around the eyes it has. The skin comes with fitting ears. The decorations in the background and the aligator come from 2xtremes. Its a great store for elegant furniture, skyboxes and wild animals. The aligator can be chained and has a great animation which looks like it would eat people when they sit on it. Besides this it makes all the time great munching sounds. 2xtremes has more animated animals and its worth to visit their mainstore to have a look at them. But the store takes also part in the fantasy faire.
The hair is the Telooh hair from Wasabi Pills. Its a really great mesh hair which is available for both genders. The poses come from purple poses which have a growing section of male poses.

Shopping helper

It was not easy to be the adoptive daughter of one of the lords of hell. Anubia had asked her father several times why he hadn't killed her or something like that when finding her but somehow she must have been a very cute baby so he had decided to raise her as his daughter. Maybe he also only wanted to have somebody close who would not plan to kill him at the end. Of course Anubia sometimes thought about killing him but it would be a bit difficult to get somebody down who was ten times bigger than her and also resistant to most poisons. As cruel as he was to other demons as fatherlike was his behaviour when it came to Anubia. He had sent her to some exclusive schools where she was supposed to learn to behave like a Lady. She turned out like a Lady who was used to deal with deviant creatures and was not offended when seeing somebody eat other beings. But all in all she did quite well. And she loved to shop. If anybody would have heard about her he would most likely have supposed that she would wear typical black dresses with many frills but Anubia loved modern clothing. Her father had offered her slaves to make her clothes but that wasn't what she wanted. She wanted to buy clothes like a normal human. Her father was of course always worried when she went shopping so he started to send some of his servants with her. It was entertaining at least for the servants, Anubia normaly ended totally embarrassed and well the stores looked very different after she and the servants left. Luckily money wasn't a problem so she was still always welcome. But even her father had to admit that it might be better not to send demons with her who had nothing else in mind than making stores look like their normal home and that they hung the shopassistants on the ceiling was also not a behaviour he could call wellmannered. So he started to send a hellhound shopping with her. It went more or less well. He only stared in an inappropriate way on some women and when she told him to stop he stared at men instead. Unfortunatly he started then to be interested in the things she bought and demanded to get clothing as well. Anubia decided that it was best to leave quickly again. The next time she would ask her father to send a succubus shopping with her. This wouldn't be a good decision as well. But after the succubus was done with the storeowner he granted Anubia a big discount at least.

The current round of the Zombiepopcorn event will only go for a few more days so its time to jump there and to buy the cute items which are being sold there. For example the Dominique mesh hair from Wasabi Pills. Its rigged and comes in two versions. The one on the picture is the version with the pony covering the forehead. The sweater from pesca is available in several versions. This one is the black one. It can be worn with a sculpted bottom but there is also a version included to be worn without that sculpt. The meshclutch bag comes from Tea Time. The set includes it in three versions, one without a pose and two with a pose. Aura released those mesh pants some weeks ago.
