Lush new dresses at Nymphetamine

Wednesday, August 16th, 2006

paeoti Pomeray hates writing about her designs. She’d rather be working in Photoshop or on some new prim creation than figuring out how to put text with her distinctive ads, so I hope she won’t mind if I try to do them justice.
In recent days, Paeoti has released three new dress designs — all of [...]

Marilyn by Dazzle

Wednesday, August 16th, 2006

Last weekend I was splahing with Ginny Talamasca about Project Runway episode 5. The challenge in that episode was to “update a look for a fashion icon.” We both loved the “gothic” Marilyn dress by Kayne Gillaspie. She said, “I’ve sketched it — and I’m going to make it.”
zOMG, here it is! In [...]

Dancing Queen

Wednesday, August 16th, 2006

Unlike Hamlet Au who generally considers the compositions of Swedish supergroup ABBA to be a crime against music, I must confess that there is secret love in my heart for all things disco and Dancing Queen in particular so my heart leapt up a little when I spotted this outfit by wuvme Karuna.

New Designer: Sol Columbia

Wednesday, August 16th, 2006

I am so happy that Sol Columbia’s new fashion line Luminosity has taken flight so quickly. You might know that Sol is a well known and talented LSL scripter — she’s made everything from a prim texture toaster to the color changing scripts which show up in so many other products. And just a few [...]

What should replace the classifieds?

Wednesday, August 16th, 2006

Everyone knows the new products classifieds are going away — it will take longer, but they’re going, going, gone. I am very curious to hear from readers what kind of system they’d like to see replace the new products classified forums. I’ve been thinking about this myself for several days.
I’ve heard everything from blogs, [...]
