Perhaps this outfit wasn't the best for as snowy and cold as the scene turned out, but oh well. It never quite feels cold in Second Life. Today's post pulls in items from a number of stores and events around the grid, centered on the outfit from Elegance Boutique.

Zoe Top and Skirt - Elegance Boutique is still a pretty new store to me. I have often passed them up at events but recently been taking a closer look. This outfit at the current round of Cosmopolitan caught my eye. We see a lot of cage style tops on outfits, but often that is all there is. This outfit adds a ruffle on top, lets call it a modesty ruffle, to keep things a little less exposed. The top fits very well on the Maitreya body, but the skirt did need some alpha work. No auto-alpha is included which is a good and bad. The alpha on this with my body shape goes right to the top of the outfit. It works but if you are a little bigger than me you could have an issue. It does work though and once applied this high waist skirt fits just fine. The outfit does not come with panties but i was easily able to wear a thong from Nerido.


Diva Boots - King Deccan does it again. Deccan Arida is the creator behind The Forge in Second Life. His profile picture shows a rather royal figure in a crown and Sami and I have taken to calling him King Deccan. Anyway.. the boots I am wearing were up for sale at the recent Shop and Hop event that Linden Lab hosted. I am pretty sure they came from an earlier event but we just bought them there. The are really nice, thigh high boots and the fat pack has a ton of color options. You can change four different areas and each area has 9 colors. The pastels matched up well with the skirt and top. I have to say the fatpacks from The Forge are a terrific value and nearly always worth the price.


Valentina Clutch - This was a gift from Belle Epoque. I think i got it because I took a picture for a contest she had associate with Kinky Monthly. Its a simple clutch, came in 4 colors, each with a scripted hold. The best thing though is that they are modifiable so I was able to remove the hold and position the clutch for this picture. Very helpful, especially with accessories like this when you can do a little modding. Thanks to Belle Epoque for leaving that option open.

While going through the items from Remnant I recalled this rather unusual headpiece from Dead Dollz and figured this was a good one. Paring it up with the eyes seemed a good fit, and the rest simply fell into place. Lets look at a few of these items... Bejeweled Headpiece :  Thi...

From now on just call me Butta Liarpants because guess what? I bought the January Luxebox . Yes I said I wasn't going to, but hear me out. I really wanted to see what would happen with the changes that the Luxebox team made for 2018. The big changes for this year are dropping the number of designers down to eight and dropping the price to just 1000 L$ per month. So? Did they really listen, did they do enough. Will the new year bring a renewed "Luxe" to this aging...

Butta's Review - November Luxebox: Seul

My last post covered five items from the November LuxeBox, and I want to continue my LuxeBox coverage with one last item, the Linked Skirt and Top from Seul. Linked Top - Seul for LuxeBox Linked Skirt - Seul for LuxeBox Kerria Heels - Empire for LuxeBox (See Samira's Post for Review ) The Linked top and skirt from Seul come in sizes for Maitreya, Hourglass, Freya and Isis bodies. The included HUD changes the top and skirt independently between black, white and nude. The skirt is side cut with three thins straps around the waist. The top is a strappy cropped tank. The straps do sit a little high on the shoulders. The waist of the skirt does have a noticeable gape in the back but otherwise seems to fit well. I think it is fair to say that this is the item I am struggling the most with from this months box. We created this blog to give a brutally honest opinion of the things that we purchase, and my goal in doing this review is to highlight things that I feel can be impro...
