Meet Colette or Copyblog.com
I found and fell in love with Colette……
For each of my new faces I created a look incorporating something I saw in another blog and I just had to have. Imitation is the best form of flattery as they say, or copyblog.com (as I would say :))

A number of friends...
What I love the most about SL is the abundance of creativity you see where ever you go. Never before in my life have I been in a place where I am exposed to such a width of talent, which simply blows me away. It’s slightly mind boggling. It also makes me think of what abilities we as humans really have, so much potential and capacity that perhaps never would be realised if it wasn’t for SL. I know that is why SL is so captivating to me. I can let my creativity loose here, and it makes me feel good inside.
If you have tried to create something in-world you know how much work, time and effort that goes into making things, specially things that have amazing quality and ooze originality.
I think about the people that have created such items, their personality and different preferences, their background and lives. Who they are and what makes them tick, and how that is reflected in the things they make. They are all artists. I am very happy to have met and know some of these amazing people. I have been there when they go through the creative process and it is very rewarding to see.(mind you sometimes it’s pure torture, for them!) In this post I am wearing items by people that I have gotten to know quite well here in SL and I am very very proud and privileged to have as friends.
Erpla Prieto creator of Periquita shoes made boots after being in a rut. I asked her how she would create something inspired by her early creations but with her current skills, and these Kitchorific boots came to be. How fun aren’t they! Erpla is one of the most intelligent people I know, her brain works so fast it’s slightly scary at times(mostly cause it makes me feel like my brain goes in slow mo.)
Undo Hermano, behind SHADE THRONE, is like the coolest and most confident diva “bitch” with style I have ever met. I remember the first time I saw one of her sunglasses in a post and literally being bewildered by its design. My first visit to her store just had me perplexed. Her stuff is so “outside the box”. Apparently she designs in her sleep, so she can release new items every 2 days.(or so it seems) LOVE!
Anemysk Karu, one of the designers of [GLOW] has an eye for detail and a crisp vision of fashion that reflects in her graphics work. Her flickr stream is always refreshing to watch. Her sensitive and mature nature is balanced by her driving force to see things from a new angle, to always be on the forefront of her ability. Just look at the patterns of these FOLK earrings, inspired by Polish culture. Simply genius.
Last and definitely least, in avi size! (LOL) is Anya Ohmai. It is difficult to not be smitten by Anya’s charm and endearing character. On top of that she has the ability to transform simple garments into beautiful pieces of clothing. Her first tank top she made in one day, and it was the best tank I’d seen in SL! Her sense of color, shape and proportion is really impressive. Her clothing feels so natural! Talking to her about life in and out of SL has made me think a lot bout my own life and she’s quite mature for a young woman. I love her to bits, even though I nag on her like an old dad!
I know this post had a lot of text, but I wanted to let my friends know how I feel. And I hope everybody can and will tell the people near them how much they are appreciated. We all contribute to this small world we live in, let’s make it a positive and generous contribution!
Happy Halloween!

Shave off some years....
How old is your avi in SL? I seem to be in the 28-35 range, mostly I think because I have my goatee and not so sporty style going on. In RL I actually feel a bit lost and naked without my goatee. (so deep I know!) But I thought to give it a go in SL, and I am glad, cause I look so much younger! ..::MAI::.. Justin skin is great in quality and has a nice charming face, it managed to lure me off my Belleza. I styled myself not so young though, more relaxed stylish artsy kinda way. I'm still in my SHIKI clothes, this is the jacket part of the new coat from SHIKI fall collection, the pants are from the black fall suit, LOVE the color splashes in it. The blue belt was what got this outfit going. The GLOW hats are very elegant, I modded the shape a bit and I really appreciate when you can mod accessories. The FD belt has been in my inv for ages and I love the feel it brought to this outfit. The Shiny Things shoes are so damn good, I want more!
So yeah here I am all shaven and "dapper", quote from Vanity, muah!

Get SHIKI with It!
I love Second Life! Love it! Where else can you step into a store, fall in love just about everything in there, friend the designer and be given a super cool gift, just for being in the store? I mean, imagine me stepping into Armani, texting Giorgio, "hey man love ur stuff!" and next day find a suit on my doorstep. (no don't think so...)
But this is what happened when I discovered SHIKI Design during the Stepping Stones hunt. I had one of those wonderful click everywhere experiences that don't happen all too often, specially not for men's ware, and ended up chatting with Shinichi Mathy for quite a while. Anyway...I've been wearing SHIKI ever since and FINALLY I am blogging it. I meant to do it like during the Stepping Stones hunt, which was like forever ago, but better late than never, right?! What I love about SHIKI is color and pattern. Shin mixes textures and patterns with a wonderful color palette. Most clothing comes with different color choices and alot of it is quite bold yet stylish, totally not over the top. Well..except for the pink gingham suit that I drooled over for a while. I'm like " No He Didn't!" but he did, and I wore it out! LOVE LOVE LOVE!! I also have to mention that there are freebies all over the store, and they are great! Just join the group.
I wanted to use the same accessory base throughout, together with each look, but it didn't quite work out. First items were the super cool hats from Surf Couture, however the denim look needed hair. The shoes from Shiny Things, not new, but still wonderful, complemented the clothes so well. Although the pink gingham suit worked best with light shoes.
I created 3 looks based on SHIKI.
Autumn, Dark Denim and Pink Madness.
You figure out which is which.....
The detailed texturing on this suit is amazing. I chose to darken the collar a bit, cause I'm cool like that. And the suit is mod, so adjust the tone however you like. The tank top from Shai adds that pop of color that was needed. I don't know why, but I always feel right when I put on my Armidi Aviators and FNKY cigg, they go so well together and bring that hip edge to any outfit.
Pose: Snook
Pose: KoumB
The pants is love! I'm a sucker for anything checkered. The scarf from LaGyo, makes this outfit really stand out to me, Gyorgyna Larnia has an amazing feel for details and the tassels on this thing move so realistically.
Pose: PDA
I have to thank Thalia Jie for pointing me to MANDALA and Anya Ohmai for sending me to Ordinary Design.
I'm ready to go do some more fall shopping...coming with?
Hugs!

Le.Look, it's a Posers Hunt
Exciting news!
I was asked to be one of the stylists for Le.Look! shopping district during August! We are looking at 4 weeks of great styling fun, and everything we wear basically you can get there. It is one of my personal favorite shopping sims, so I was thrilled and honored when Anemysk Karu of Glow Studio asked me to do this with her!
For our first week we decided to go with retro glam fun schawam! Every Saturday you can see what we come up with on the Le.Look blog, and you also don't want to miss out on the amazing photo work of Jordan Giant who will be photographing us. I'm so excited! (Can you tell?)
Next!
I will participate in my first hunt ever! Weee!!
The hunt is special because it highlights us pose makers in SL! The PRO POSERS hunt goes from 15 to 30 August.
Over 30 pose shops and makers are participating and that is just fantastic.
My hunt gift is some fun poses inspired from the 70s, one couple pose and some cool moves.
You can see the couple pose and one (mine) single pose in the Le. Look Aug Week 1 style post. There are more poses in the gift pack, but you're gonna have to pick it up to see them! OK?!
Click on over to the Le. Look! August Week 1 post
and check back on Saturday and start hunting then too!
Here is the Slurl to Le. Look!
That's the adorable Anya Ohmai, twirling with me! ;D
Weeee!

Skip To The Pose!
I have been heavy in pose making mode and decided to throw someting quick together, before friends started accusing me of being indecent. I've been walking around almost naked, she-male style, male skin/female shape.(no it's not pretty).
It has been a while since I posted an outfit! Lord, it doesn't take long before you feel totally out of the loop. I don't even know how to write anymore, so here follows some random rambling on some awesome stuff.
The see through cotton t-shirt from Doppelganger I saw on the Jewnas Brothers blog first, a total must have! A funny thing, on Fashion Feed of SL I was set as a Jewnas brother, oh I wish they would adopt me so that wasn't just a bug on the site!
Zaara has to make more men's stuff!! Just HAS to! These chinos are unisex and total love love love!.
The hat and hair from MAD Design, I am still wearing(note to self, wash hair)...it's so in fashion atm, specially in RL I see this hat everywhere.
The Miguel skin from Belleza just make me feel kinda smexy, love the fact that it resembles me a tad in RL.(let me dream.....OK!)
Steinwerk, a new brand to me, very sleek design on the glasses and Ubu Drunks shoes, both these items are top class sculptie design/texture work, and both have unbelievablely varied customization menus, you can change just about anything on them. Perfect for matching to what ever you have on.
The Yummy necklaces I bought years ago, but they still rock! They have that perfect male jewellry,"I don't care what I look like, but I wear necklaces"-feel.
Now on to the poses, which made me wanna blog this outfit in the first place!
These two poses are part of a Skipping Stones Hunt gift from PDA, and the whole set from them is just so fun, unique, full of character and quirkyness I feel so cool using them. (I really shouldn't tell you guys bout them, cause I want them all for my self!)
Get on the skip and look for those stones, there are some great gifts out there from some the best bohemian and alternative stores in Second Life.
There are over 50 stores in the hunt, so you will be sure to find lots of amazing gifts and hopefully some new favorites.
It starts here:
Happy Hunting!
