Miriel @ Miriel

Monday, August 4th, 2008

 
When in the fall of 2007 Miriel informed us that she had bought her own sim, and Fleur (back then stil Tête à Pied) decided to do the same, I was sad… sad because Nouveau, back then the home of Miriel, Fleur, and  until now, Lassitude & Ennui was one of my favourite sims. Beautifully [...]

I’m Bald… for a Cause

Sunday, July 20th, 2008

As announced in a previous post, I vowed to go bald for a month should SLRFL’08 raise more money that in all the 4 previous editions together. The bar was set to the equivalent of USD 167,000.  Today, during closing ceremony, the grand total of USD 195,000 was announced (that is over 52 million L$). So [...]

Stitch by Stitch and RFL (not sure how that came into it, but it’s monday morning)

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

Today I came upon the funniest store in a long while, Stitch by Stitch, and I just had to share some of the skirts that I found there with you. Besides the gipsy dresses and the Frida Kahlo dress and some of the items that Analu blogged some time ago, these are the items I [...]

What a fun week of events! Indyra Originals had a huge party to celebrate all the people who entered their model search. Over 200 girls applied. After making a call to Linden Labs to allow more people into the sim, the club was packed with nearly a hundred of SL’s most beautiful avatars. About a [...]

CG Facelight 4.0

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

I acquired an excellent freebie facelight from the Fashion Emergency group just a few days ago and I wanted to pass it on to all of our readers.
Cognitive Gears created a facelight which is 100% free - (copy/mod/trans OK) even the scripts inside the objects are copy/mod/trans. I put a L$0 vendor [...]

Our outage

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

Over the past two years, we’ve been running an ad server serving buttons and banner ads to several websites. The database hit 40 gigabytes and at that point, our site was suspended until I could fix this issue.
I apologize for the outage. I feel like I have a little idea of how Linden Lab must [...]

A Fashionista’s Guide to Gadgets

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

Something that can be overlooked when you’re putting together your look for a given day is the little extra conveniences available inside of Second Life. Sometimes I wish I could pop up a HUD in real life!
With that in mind, I wanted to write about some of my favorite gadgets in Second Life [...]

I also released a new version of the kiosk. Seems several people clicked on [...]

Computer security alert: QuickTime flaw

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

I promise I won’t make a regular habit of posting articles like these, but I felt like this is serious enough to break away from our regular programming.
You probably saw the alert the Lindens put up about the QuickTime security flaw if you’ve logged into Second Life recently, but on Fashion Emergency and some other [...]

Stranded at the Drive-In

Sunday, November 18th, 2007

Before I get rambling on my “stranded at the drive-in” story, here’s a really cute vintage sweater that just came in from Marlys Vintage Clothing. The sweater is called Sol’s Equinox c.1966 and I just love it for fall! It has sculpty prim cuffs and collar and just sings of the 1960s. You can’t [...]
