Drama Queens

American Bazaar has been coming out with great stuff all month, but my favorite are the cool retro tops and pin-up shorts combination from the latest edition of the Boobies Show. These outfits with their various color combinations and vintage vibe are perfect for your inner bad girl and are guaranteed to bring lots of attention as you wander around the grid starting drama (see the last pic for why).

The hair here from Tableau Vivant and MONS are both gifts from Hair Fair, which ends today (or maybe tomorrow, I'm so confused). In any case, if you haven't been, rush over there before it ends for the latest releases and some amazing free stuffs (see my recent post for the gift from MiaMai).

I mentioned in my last posts featuring BSD Design Studio and Shoe Fair that there were some great things to be found there. Well the mesh platforms shown below are a free gift from Deer at Shoe Fair and come with a texture-change hud with a bazillion colors to choose from. Check out SL's top shoe designers all in one place before the event ends on July 31.

Little Warehouse

The Challenge's 4th round this month has a factory/industrial theme, which is a style I frequently come back to in many of the builds I feature on the site.  Here I've taken Bauwerk's litttle warehouse skybox from this round and imagined it as a combined work/home space for an architect or engineer, using many of the items from the Challenge round as well as other pieces that work well in the build.  The decor emphasizes metal as well as wood, which softens the space quite a bit. The pictures below feature two of the stand-outs from this round: an excellent drafting table and assorted decor from Follow Us and Plato Novo's beautiful "Factory" chairs for %Percent.

The avi features a new release skin from (Red)Sand and super nice texture-change hair from Exile, on sale at Mens Dept and available in various tones. The clothing is also from Mens Dept, except for the shirt from American Bazaar that I quite like and previously blogged in a different color here.

As this post was getting long, I'll have more shots and review of the build and furniture in my next post, but in the meantime previews can be seen of all Challenge items on the event website.

Monochrome

I always think about color when I plan my blog posts, which is why I was looking forward to the latest hunt from Monochrome Hunts. Silver Lining is the second in a series of color-themed hunts - this time the theme is silver - and there is a nice range of items to be had (I'm featuring the furniture from Pestique, Circa & Estatica). The gifts cost 5L, but are worth far more than that - check their blog for photos of most of the gifts.

Today is also the last day I think for the Black Event on the Wash Sim, where I picked up some excellent textures from Timeless Textures and Far Concepts for only 10l that fit well with the theme of the post.

Update Dec 1: Wash Sale still going on. Not sure when it ends.

Silver Lining
Decor
  • Furniture Set: Circa - Starry Night (5l, Silver Lining Hunt until Dec 5)
  • Texture (Wall): Timeless Textures - Black Beauty 1 (10l at Wash Sale for Texture Pack until Nov 28)
  • Texture (Floor): K.O. Textures - Black Parquet 2 (40l for Texture Pack)

Outtakes

Here are a few scenes inspired by the Cinema event that runs through Oct. 31. If you haven't been you must go check it out. The event takes place in a giant Multiplex replica with movie clips playing in various themed areas (such as Sci Fi, Adult films, Action/Adventure, etc). It is really quite fun and there is some great shopping as well, featuring many of SL's best creators.
