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...

Sami's Review - November Luxebox: Sintiklia, Cosmic Dust, Empire & Jian

All right guys, here goes my very first blog post.  I know this is going to be a work in progress until I get comfy with what works and what doesn't, so bare with me.  Feel free to offer up any suggestions or criticisms in the comment section or hit me up in world. Butta and I decided that we should launch off our blog, with the very thing that caused us to get the idea for doing this in the first place.  The Luxebox November edition.  There are a total of 12 items inside the Luxebox, so we decided to split them up (6 items for each of us) and review them for you.  You can find her blog post about the items she reviewed here: Butta's Review So let's get started shall we! Hair:   Sintiklia - Taya Hair, fatpack (I'm wearing from the browns HUD in the picture) First off, I want to say that Sintiklia is quickly becoming one of my new favorite hair designers.  Her textures are beautiful, real life looking and her designs are always gorgeous (as...

Sami's Review - November Luxebox: Pretty Mess & Ariskea

Here we go with part 2 of my Luxebox November review.  In this review I'll be discussing the earrings & top by Pretty Mess, as well as the cabin by Ariskea.  In this picture, I'm also wearing the Wait hair by Lamb, the Mara Jersey Skirt by Rowne, and I'm using the Modern Luxe Bench by Fancy Decor, which are all also in the November edition of Luxebox this month.  You can find Butta's review on these items here .  So let's get started! Top:   Pretty Mess - All Seeing Earrings, Lily Split Tube Top What a nice surprise to get 2 items from Pretty Mess!  Thank you!!  The earrings come in both gold and silver versions, which makes me happy.  I am not a huge fan of yellow gold in RL and it seems that that follows me into SL as well.  That's not to say that the gold version of her earrings are bad.  They're not at all.  It's a very soft yellow gold, so it's very pretty.  Not an in your face, bright gold that you see in SL, ...
