Great denim from Razor and Aphorism, the latter's "Loaded" outfit includes a little something extra to keep you safe, whatever your line of work, in the big, bad city. Nice casual styles from Etham and Howl - love blogging those - and great accessories from Eudora 3D and Gabriel too. Go check it out!

Last day for the Men Only Hunt! You still have time to run out and get some of the great stuff shown below. And like every month, Mens Dept is underway, where you can pick up the Monso hair and Clef de Peau skin my avi is wearing, or Gabriel's awesome Summer cardigan set with texture change shirt.

The Valley

Here are some photos done at Silver Sea, a great Sim to escape the Holiday bustle, filled with interesting nooks & crannies. I stuffed my backpack with enough outerwear for an extended stay, again all from Mens Dept, where you still have time before the end of 2013's last round.

      Jazz Diva

      Think Billie, think Lena, think Ella... the current Singer Icon fair led to thoughts of the real Diva's that paved the way for so many of today's icons. Their timeless style and grace and incredible talent continues to inspire and they shouldn't be forgotten. 

      I've tried to recreate that jazz diva feeling with ArisAris's new exuberant dress and BSD Design Studio's surreal abstract shoes from Shoetopia. My look is completed with a new shape from Baholi (all of Baholi's shapes are divas!) plus the latest gift skin from Deeesses and hair from Ploom.

      Also featuring Lover Man Ravi on piano and modeling some great new releases available at Mens Dept until the end of the month.

      Vroom, Vroom

      Have you been to Rockabilly Fair yet? Such a cute event with little 50s style houses set up on suburban streets. My clothing here from American Bazaar and Mirrors Enigma are new releases for Rockabilly. Don't miss it before the event fades away like Buddy Holly on the 23rd.

      If I could have rezzed at rockabilly, I would have taken Bauwerk's Vroom sofa for a spin there. Instead it gives a lil 50s flair to my living room as I wait for my Peggy Sue. The sofa and many other great items are available in the November Mens Dept round...

      Mini-Squall

      At 6:00am it had all the makings of a fine day, the kind you dream about in October, but you never know when you’re offshore. A patch of dark clouds was gathering through the morning haze and we were heading right towards it. Half way to the pots, the wind picked up and the first drops began to fall. Rule No.1: keep your neck warm - so I grabbed my Gabriel sweater. You know, the one that goes right up to my ears. The one I never take off the boat.

      By the 20 mile marker, it was a damn mini-squall. The sky darkened again, the rain rolling in like sheets and we went for the foul weather gear. Did I mention the wind, I guess I did. I threw on my Deadwool slicker. Yeah it’s covered in grease from the engines; it’s not a fashion show out there. It keeps my hands free and the rain off my back, that’s what matters! Anyway, we got our pots in though, cause that’s what we do...

      Clothing from Mens Dept in this post includes the DeadWool raincoat and Gabriel’s sweater. The skin is from Mens Dept as well so go check out the round (ends Oct 31) - there is awesome stuff there. Also some cool new releases from Fashion Emergency and great grungy jeans that I used throughout the post from American Bazaar.

      We Will Rock You!

      My recent posts have had a few items from the Men Only Hunt 3, but here is a whole lot more featuring three dudes who just love to rock. There are lots of great gifts in this hunt - the theme is Rock n Roll this time - and hunters will find pretty much everything they need to create that rock look, whatever their preferred era. Great shapes (I'm showing three here, but there are many more), skins, clothing... I had mentioned that the hunt would be epic - well it truly is. Crank the tunes, stock up on the beverages and do the whole hunt - you'll be glad you did.

      Big Game

      Part 2 of my Africa themed post (see Part 1 here) with some shots outside the lodge in the game preserve. I'll do a final roundup before the end of the month with some more decor & fashion shots featuring the Scarlet Creative build from Part 1.

      Male fashions here are from Mens Dept. I particularly like gO's Morten pants and the sweater from Sleepy Eddy in this round, but like every month there are some great items at good prices so don't miss it (ends February 1). Thanks as well to Ruby Vandyke of Rodeo Horse & Farm Animals for providing me with some mod versions of her rideables.

      L'Heure Fauve

      A little bit of green in the month of March is always a good thing. Of course, living where I do in the middle of a big city, it's not always easy to find nature, but sometimes nature has a way of finding you, as shown by the two beasts keeping me company for this post.

      The build here is a hunt gift from dirty.little.secret, fully furnished with lots of decor & an upper level not shown in the post (it will be available at a nominal price after the hunt). Also I want to thank Draven Schapire of Bad Cat Alley, who lent me Oliver, his furry pride and joy. Check out his store if you are in the market for feline accompaniment.
