An elephant knit sweater? Yes, please! I was about 75 pages into the Women’s Tops MP category when I stumbled upon this adorable sweater. It comes from Lowkey Shawty Boutique, and isn’t the only similarly-styled adorable sweater. This prompted me to visit the Lowkey mainstore (link down in the clothes list), and I was pleasantly surprised at all the adorable things there! These sweaters, however, are only available on the Marketplace (to the best of my knowledge) –> Lowkey Shawty Boutique on the SL Marketplace The Clothes Lowkey Shawty Boutique – Elephant Sweater Maitreya – Zipper Skinny Jeans Milk Motion – Tennis Sneakers The Looks Maitreya – Lara Body Glam Affair – Sia Skin Truth – Colbie Hair Ikon – Promise...

Are you tired of your Second Life snapshots looking like junk? Yes? Good, because I’m tired of looking at your junk-ass pictures! Ok, seriously, they’re not THAT bad, but they could be better. This is the first in what I hope is a long series of tutorials to take you from Zero to Hero in Photoshop. Keep this in mind: These are not tutorials on how to take better snapshots INSIDE Second Life. Stillsky and I assume that you are already familiar with and somewhat comfortable using, at the very least, the basic sky and Windlight settings. These tutorials are designed to enhance well-taken snapshots, nothing more! Why the tutorials series, guys? Great question! Stillsky and I don’t agree on a lot of things when it comes to Photoshop, but the one thing we do seem to agree on is that the internet is inundated with overly-complex and bloated tutorials that take a million steps to accomplish things that could easily have taken 5 or fewer steps. And while hard drive space and memory is cheap enough to come by, and most people seem to be rocking decent enough computers to handle heavy files inside Photoshop, it still seems silly to go ham when you really don’t have to. Our goal is to show you ways to achieve great results in as simple a way as possible with as few steps as possible. Cross-Processing To understand cross-processing, it helps to know regular processing first! Once upon a time, cameras used film. When exposed to light via camera, film would capture the image invisibly. The film would then need to...

Yes, it’s true! Another “fashion” blog. Whatever! So many blogs like to focus on the event stuff, and that’s all fine, well, and good. Every blog pretty much looks like every other blog though, and the result in-world is everyone winds up wearing the same stuff. Admittedly, I’m not really that different. While I don’t clamor to get in to every event right away, I do try to make a point to get in before it shuts down to grab the handful of cute things that caught my attention. I really want to focus on the random finds and other interesting clothes that take up valuable real estate in my closet, but usually don’t get any love. So without further adieu, I present to you my very own Crap in my Closet blog series! Up first, this cute little outfit I threw together in a jiffy!
