#294 The Chair

This fabulous Tramell chair  is a colab between Kuro and Junk for this month's Atalier Kreslo.  It comes in 6 variations, each with 6 animations, 2 of which I am showing here.  As would be expected of Kuro and Junk, it is beautifully made and textured, and undeniably out of the ordinary.  A glance of those crossed legs makes me smile every time (the chairs, not mine!)!

My outfit from Absolut Vendetta is one of the ones that got deleted in my inventory disaster last month (read about it  here) - I got this one back thanks to the designer who sent it personally, which I really appreciate.  I am going to work through all the items I got back this way, as a small way to say thank you to the sl stores and designers who really do go out of their way for their customers.  The outfit comes with an extensive texture change hud, as do my boots from Lapointe & Bastchild.

My skin is from Center Ville and is my first skin from them.  I am really fussy about skins, so much so that it is only recently I have managed to force myself out of my Belleza comfort blanket.  So when I this skin wasn't expecting to like it but I was so wrong, it is really beautiful, and I will definitely be featuring Center Ville skins again. 

My necklace is the Glint prize for the Candy Cane Hunt which runs till tomorrow, December 25th - but I am hoping that because of the holidays it will be out a bit longer.

#263 Those Fall Evenings

So Tomm took me out dancing last night, we had a wonderful night but I'm afraid I drank a little too many pixel cocktails, and don't really remember how I got home.  Then he showed me this picture and it started coming back to me, but my head was aching too much to think about it so I went back to sleep, leaving Tomm to do the housework and look after the kitties.  I felt a lot better when I woke up, but I think I will stay clear of those pixel cocktails for a while - well a couple of hours at least!

I just have to say a HUGE thank you to Tomm for his patience and help during our first official couple shoot, and for making the whole process such fun.  You really are the best, Mr M!

#240 Rhapsody with a Jazz riff

This is another post focused pretty much on Rhapsody, with my outfit and all the furniture coming from this fabulous event.  The chairs and benches from Kuro are all texture change and come in both suede and leather.  I have used two wall benches and one corner bench in the picture above.   My house is not really ready for showing decor, as I have only just changed houses and I have literally just started decorating so there are none of my own bits about, but I wanted to show you these things which I really loved. 

The Kuro jazz neon pics come in 3 styles, and 3 colour choices in each style - they can also be switched on and off depending on your preferences.  What I particularly love are the cables and wall plugs that are attached, which add an incredible note of realism.  I am showing two of 3 different jazz prints from Kokolores, all as stylish as can be expected from Sisch Firecaster!

My outfit is from [ SAKIDE ] for Rhapsody and is beautifully textured and available in an array of gorgeous rich colours.  My earrings are from aru, the new accessory store opened by Luana Dawg of Kuro, and the items are really unusual and sheer perfection as you would expect from Luana. These earrings are beautifully made and available in brass as well as the pewter I am wearing.  My necklace is from [LNS Designs], and I will be wearing the matching earrings and bracelet in an upcoming post.

By the way there should have been a wall behind me in the pic above but I accidentally derendered the house - makes a change from deleting it!

#223 I Hate Mondays (even on a Saturday!)

As someone who has dreaded Monday mornings since my school days, this Monday Haters chair made me smile.  It is a beautifully made collab between Kuro and Breno and comes in  dark, light, stained and white, with a choice of three "coffee flavoured" textures for the seat  cushion.

The chair comes with five fun anims, the one above is called Noooo, and I so know how that feels when you want to hide so you don't have to start your Monday!

Under the Sea

Click the image for a larger image on my Flickr photostream.

The story behind this prop is best told by it's creator, by Chandni Karfield of Hopscotch:  

"This pose prop is based on the photography if Julie de Waroquier. When I saw it I had this piece of story in my mind: "After a while in the world of the two legged, she wanted to go back to the sea. But she and her prince had moved and there was no water around. Only the little bit of undersea world in the aquarium. Maybe this was the way home..."

The aquarium comes in two versions, one with glow and light effects of the water, the other without. They are modifiable so you can adjust them if you need to.  This is currently available at The Surreal Complex.

The setting is Window 2.0 by KaTink , which is a mesh item, and comes with a hud allowing you to change the texture of the walls, curtains and floor.
