In unknown lands the elf met a stranger…

Heya peeps,

so, after a bit of a blow up because a friend of mine didn’t want to tell some random impolite chick what her skin was, I will state this:

NO, it is NOT mean, bitchy, princessy and arrogant not to state where your skin and layers are from. Secondlife only offers a few things to truly customize your avatar. Creating a UNIQUE looking character for role-play that doesn’t run around with your generic XY skin requires quite a bit of Lindens and time and matching ‘skills’. So, if someone doesn’t want to tell every layer, how about you just accept it and move on to start to create your own ideas?

It has NOTHING to do with being a princess or wanting to be special, but it has everything to do with wanting to maintain unique features that fit the character you picture in your mind. It is another reason why most people who value a bit of a unique look do not go for mesh-heads…an army of clones really is a bit boring.

Going so far to spend your online time on finding out what skin person XY is wearing and how she combines her layers, to then spill it to the public in your profile, alongside with some incredibly idiotic rant only paints you as an uncreative mean chick who cannot for the sake of her own reputation accept a ‘no’ and create an avi herself.

/rant off. It’s so fun to rant at times.

Oh and by the way…mysterious woman, you got it wrong. It isn’t Pussy by The Bodyshop, as you have certainly realized by now. Since you apparently told her you are a blogger, from what I have been told, shouldn’t you have recognized it? ;D

I don’t know what you are looking for

I haven’t been super-inspired lately. For some reason I get the feeling that more and more of SL fashion is being overwhelmed with allllll the same stuff all over the place. I am not sure if I can only blame the templates, or generally US, the users, too. There are however a few notable exceptions.

Also, I switched back to my Orchid skin for good now, mixing it with a soft, naural lipstick from MOCK. I never liked the dry looking lips on Orchid at all, but the overall skin is just so nice and I got tired of my League skin (despite it being pretty!) for now. What do you think? :O Thoughts? I am still waiting for Laqroki’s new line…grrr!

If you let me go I’m running fast

Hello everyone,

time for a new post. Lately I was asked again and again if I could do a review on some items, usually though, I refused, for two reasons: Most clothing is after all a matter of taste, so my opinion is just that…my opinion and 2. I quite simply don’t have the time to do a lot of reviews. But, I decided, every now and then I will. Think it is a good idea? I am not sure yet, some feedback would be awesome.

So here we go, with a usual post first and later on one with a review. You’ll notice the outfit is a bit similar to the last, but I simply had to blog this stuff once more, this time with the soon to be released pants. Promise the next one will be different again!

It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for me

Just a quick statement, as I have heard that apparently some people claim to be me, which I personally wouldn’t care about if some creators would not sometimes send out stuff for me to possibly blog it. The ONLY three avatars (unless otherwise stated in the post itself) I use for this blog are Arica Storaro, Siamo Tedeschi (for freebie/cheapie posts) and Iorveth Resident (my male toon). Whoever else claims to be blogging here is quite simply lying. Please ONLY send stuff to Arica Storaro. I log only very seldomly on any other account I own, including the two above and the items might get lost. Thank you.

And last but not least: A friend of mine, Victor Klavinham, had a great x-mas gift for me: He hired a photographer in SL: Asami Schnyder. The guy’s work is pretty damn awesome. Here is a link to his Flickr: Asami’s Flickr. Thank you  so much, both of you: Vic and Asami. I LOVE The result! Only downside? Now I feel terribly lame with my oh so awesome photoshopping ‘skills’.
