Taxi!

Hello  Sweets,
between two meetings today, I decided to take a little break and spoil myself with a little shopping spree at faMESHed and The Gallery Gift Shop. And best, on both locations you can find great items from NYU – Minimal High Fashion Couture. So I decided to combine them both to a great look.

But before I tell you a little more about the items, I want to point you to my new haircut. Have you noticed? I made a steal at [e] during their annual hair sale. Today I’m wearing the haircut called Figure. You still can find the great mesh hair at the mainstore from Eliktatira. For 250L$ you can choose one colored version, but there are also Essentials Collections (280L$ – with up to 8 colortypes included) or the Fatpack (1400L$ – all available colurs included). Of course demos are available to check the look before purchase.

Let us start with this great done Trenchcoat I’m wearing today. This is a perfect match for the upcoming fall season and it is available at faMESHed from NYU – Minimal High Fashion Couture. At the venue you can choose between 12 great colors for 300L$ each. Or you can take the fatpack (all color options included – 2000L$).  This mesh item comes in five different sizes with matching alpha layers. And, as always, a demoversion to test your personal fitting is also available at the venue.

Okay, back to the taxi, and next stop is The Gallery Gift Shop. The new items are out there for a few days now, so it will be hopefully not crowded. And I was surprised to see that NYU – Minimal High Fashion Couture offers there the great Studded Sunglasses for 230L$. In total you have 256 different color combinations available with just one pack. But, please keep in mind, that the sunglasses are also mesh items.

And finally, my bag is also from NYU – Minimal High Fashion Couture. But, for more information about this accessoriy, I want to point you to Nestors Blogpost Enter the Runway. You find the bag at the current cycle of L’accessories.

Now it’s time for me to say goodbye. The next meeting awaits me. But I’m pretty sure I will make a great impression with my modern and classy look today. Thank you designers, for these wonderful creations. While I’m in the meeting, I have preapred the credits for my todays look and hope to read you all soon !

Enter The Runway

And here it starts again: the third edition of the Runway Perfect Hunt – the hunt that brings you everything a model needs. And lets start with this neat prob from WetCat. It is a red carpet with loads of poses for him and her included – some are shown on above picture. So if you want to make a glamour shot – this is definitely the right gift for you. The complete outfit is the very generous gift from FATAL and it is called “Westwood Prince”. It is mesh in male standard sizing and has many wearing options also. The shoes are also included in the gift (and also the socks that you can hardly see in the image 😉 )

The bag comes from L’accessoires and is the item from NYU – since my today look is blue-ish, green-ish i decided to get me the “Neutral Blue Briefcase”. The briefcase comes with holding animation for left or right hand – and with no animations also – so perfect for every purpose.

List of stuff:

Outfit: FATAL – Westwood Prince (mesh in male standard sizing) (for the Runway Perfect Hunt 3)

Bag: NYU – Minimal High Fashion Couture – Neutral Blue Leather Briefcase (for L’accessoires)

Prob: ::WetCat:: – Perfect Red (for the Runway Perfect Hunt 3)

Accessorize Me

Let us start todays blogpost with the good news first: remember the 49 L$ Sale for Dudes that was on a year ago and then vanished into thin air? Well gentlemen – better do not plan anything for this weekend in second life because the 49 L$ Sale for Dudes is back! And one of the items you can get for a snip is my hair (with sun visor) from Atro Patena. The visor can change the color and the hair is available in 4 maintones – each including 5 subtones.

The neat sunglasses are from The Gallery Gift Shop and are the share of NYU for the current round. Available as chin and mouth-attachment and of course cou can costumize it by mousclick – the top and the frames can be colored individually.

And if we are talking about accessories we hardly can miss L’accessories, can we? These super neat Armwarmers are from ~Tableau Vivant~ and they are available in 8 different colors at the venue. They are rigged mesh and there are male and female standard sizes included. So – like siad – do not make too much plans for your weekend in SL – because you definitely have to go on a shopping spree.

List of stuff:

Hair: [Atro Patena] – Kevin Black (49 L$ Sale for Dudes)

Sunglasses: NYU – Minimal High Fashion Couture – Studded Sunglasses (for the Gallery Gift Shop)

Armwarmers: ~Tableau Vivant~ – Armwarmers Green (for L’accessoires)

Homestory

Happy Sunday everyone. Missed my blog post about houses and furniture? Well good news is here: you will get an overdose today. And you will only see bits and pieces of myself since the main actor indeed is the fabulous new skybox LONDON Appartment from [AF]. And since this skybox is huge (but only has a Land Impact of 58 thanks to mesh) I decided to show you room by room, making a little homestory about how I start my day.

So – obviously we begin in the bedroom (above left). I just crawled out of my snuggly bed from Scarlet Creative. The Noelle Modern Bed comes with multiple poses for single and couple usage and what I like most about it is the fact that you can actually move the poses to your needs. The books and the lamp left to the bed are also from Scarlet Creative and they show so much love for detail. The rounded shelf is from [bauwerk] and will become released soon. And the candles are a gift from Designer Prims.

So I am on my way to the bathroom. And I am wearing the Silk Flare Pants in autumn bleed which are the huntgift for the Autumn Effect Hunt from 22769 ~ casual couture. And talking about gifts. The washing table in the bath is the new Groupgift from the same store. It comes with three animations (washing hands, shaving and brushing teeth). It is the first piece of furniture I know that works with the new Linden Labs Functions like temporary attachments. Because the washing table attaches the razor or the toothbrush to your hands, but they do not clutter your inventory.

After doing my morning stuff I relax a bit in the Retro Bubble Chair (again from Scarlet Creative). And then it is time for getting dressed and a breakfast to start my day…
List of stuff:
Bed: Scarlet Creative – Noelle Modern Bed
Books (on Bed Shelf): Scarlet Creative
Lamp: Scarlet Creative – Adler Lamp
Ballchair: Scarlet Creative – Bubble Chair
Rug: Scarlet Creative – Adler Rug
Candles:  Designer Prims – Candle Set Cream
Shelf: [bauwerk] – curved shelf (soon to be released)
Art: Gabrielle Swindlehurst – Fields Of Gold – Five (for the Gallery Gift Shop)
Books: BoatHouse – Book Stack 5
Washing Table: 22769 ~ casual couture – Good Morning Gorgeous (Groupgift)
Plants: Scarlet Creative – Love Leaf Jug Plant
Pants: 22769 ~ casual couture – Silk Flared Pants autumn bleed (for the Autumn Effect Hunt)

One of the things that really amaze me about the LONDON Appartment is the hallway and I am sure you will love it as much as I do. As you can see in the panoramic shot (the middle one) the texturing is gorgeous and not too heavy.

So – I found my denims and my jumper and are on the way to the living room and kitchen wich are downstairs. One thing about design in secondlife: there are classics within secondlife. Like furniture that was created in admiration of RL designs and I absolutely love that. But there are pieces of furniture that became already classic pieces WITHIN secondlife. And one of these rare items is for sure the Asylum Octo Lovec Chair from LISPs Bazaar. It is strange, it is quirky and it is a beautiful piece of art coming out of secondlife. Everyone needs that chair (or another one out of this series). Another wonderful piece of interior design is the Light Tree from ICONIC you can see in the middle shot in the first floor.

As you maybe know I come from Germany – and around here it is common that we a) have our wastebins in the hallway (in huge, old buildings) and especially for students like I am b) that we do not leave our bikes on the street.

List of stuff:
Chair: [bauwerk] – cube chair leather (soon to be released)
Potato: [bauwerk] – rattan sitting bag indian spice (soon to be released)
Shoes (foreground): :::GABRIEL::: – Driving Shoes Brown (Groupgift)
Boots (behind): DUH! – Brown Suede Workboots (Finding Fab Free Hunt)
Chair: LISP Bazaar – Asylum Octo Lovec Chair
Lamps: [North West] – Petite Lamps (closing sale)
Art: [bauwerk] – Vertex (soon to be released)
Tree: ICONIC – Light Tree
Wastebins: Urban Spirit – Domestic Wheelie Bins (MP Freebie)
Outfit: 22769 ~ casual couture – Autumn Outfit (for the Gallery Gift Shop)

My mother always said: the heart of every home is the kitchen. And wo am I to disagree. There are a lot of kitchens in secondlife, but this one is definitely my favorite. It comes from Trompe Loeil and is the current item for Collabor88. First – like everything that Trompe Loeil releases – the texturing and the overall look and feel is flawless. What really impressed me a lot was the set up of this kitchen. With the “kitchen planner” – wich is also the rezzer for the kitchen – it is so easy to move the complete furniture to the right spot. One click install – this kitchen definitely fulfills this task. Of course the kitchen comes with cute animations and of course there is a version available with NSFW animations also. The kitchen is available in green, orange, purple – and shown here teal.

Noticed the hot water maker on the kitchen? This is a gift that can be found at the Gallery Gift Shop and it is – like the whole event – way cute.

List of stuff:
Kitchen: Trompe Loeil – Timeless Kitchen (for Collabor88)
Hot Water Maker: Gift at the Gallery Gift Shop

Finally breakfast. I am sitting on the Adler Dining Table from Scarlet Creative – and it is way cute. First of all I love to combine rustic furniture with way modern things and second the table rezzes different meals – from breakfast to sushi – there is everything you can dream of. The Classic Fireplace also comes from Scarlet Creative and the drawers are the plain version from the last cycle of the Mens Dept. by floorplan. The skyline picture is again a gift you can get at the Gallery Gift Shop. And the lamps are a freebie from nordari.

It is time to get prepared for work. But first I rest a bit on my new won Baroque Bench Popular at the Arcade Gatcha Event. The bench – again – comes from Trompe Loeil and it is super cute and it comes with 15 different animations. My students bag – where i carry my notebook and books and all student stuff with me comes from NYU and is from L’accessoires. Look at the detailing on this bag – isn’t it wonderful? Finally the water dispenser was the huntgift from Nudolu for the Gallery Gift Shop Anniversary hunt.

Well – that was a lot! I hope I showed you enough of the fantastic LONDON Apartement by [AF] that you start drooling already. Please note that I did some minor modifications on the skybox since I removed the panorama view over London for lighting purposes.

List of stuff:
Table and Chairs: Scarlet Creative – Adler Dining Table
Lamps: nordari – Recycling Lamps
Fireplace: Scarlet Creative – Classic Fireplace
Art: Gift at the Gallery Gift Shop

Bench: Trompe Loeil – Timeless Kitchen (for the Arcade Gatcha Event)
