The Pierced set by Aries Bricklin is very good prim work and so sexy! Even though I don't normally wear this many piercings, I love the hot pink ribbon going through each metal ring. A lot of care and patience was put into this set and it shows! The corset-style piercings are all prim, the rings changes to 12 different metals, the ribbons changes between 15 lace textures using simple voice commands.
Are you feeling sexy?
Tp to Aries Celestial Designs for the Pierced set and more!

Thanksgiving in SL is like an early Christmas! Gifts galore from all the fabulous designers.... <3
Minnu Palen sent this gorgeous group gift of an unreleased skin (I think, since I don't recognize it). It's gorgeous, and it does remind me a lot of my fav Minnu (Gen4) skins but with a bit more detail and gorgeous eyebrows. O M G! Can't wait for these!!
[ Left: Gift skin | Right: Gen4 ]
[ Close-up ] Sooooo purdyyy!!
I like the light blush on this skin a lot, since Moscow did seem to be a bit heavy on the blush/cheek bones shading. Glossy lips on these would be my perfect skin. Oh my god I miss the gloss... LOL
Join the MM Skins group in-world to get these. There's a $250L enrollment fee but SO worth it!

While iheartsl.com is not as popular as worldofsl or nwn, it has definitely grown in the past couple of months. There are now over 200+ authors/contributors and I still see requests daily to be included. Most people use it as a way to be syndicated on fashion planet, so iheartsl is 95% fashion, and maybe 5% other Second Life stuff.
Crossing the 40,000 unique hits monthly mark
I wonder many people actually go to iheartsl first, or go to iheartsl via fashionplanet.
Anyways! I've finally stopped being lazy and updated the group icon on flickr for iheartsl:
It's pink.... but I'm open to ideas!
Redgrave has recently released the Vivian skin, a much anticipated (aren't they always?) new face amongst the gorgeous collection of skins. Vivian comes in pale and tan skin tone, and 15 makeups for only $2990L. Fatpacks at Redgrave are totally irresistible because the pricing is SO cheap! At other skin shops, $2990L would only buy you 3-4 skins, but when it comes to skins it is about quality not quantity right? Still, I can't help wanting them ALL! So quality + quantity = happy Gogo.

Pretty new nose....
Pretty Wintery looking makeup...
Skin designers take note! I'm really into playing with Slow Mo Emoting now, so please make sure your teeth are nice! Redgrave Vivian has nice teeth.
Tp to Redgrave
My sl kitchen is a work in progress. Wilma said I should pretend like I'm baking Apple pie, so here are all the ingredients but I'm searching on SLex right now for a baked Apple pie to hide in the oven for later :P
You know you want this....!!!! TheAbyss has recently released the Aria51 Full Avatar Doll. Included in the package are shoes, the complete outfit, skin+shape, hair, eyes, lashes, headphones and earrings. My friend Wilma and I Lovelovelove this outfit, we even bought matching Breach guns because hot girls and guns are a sexy combo!!
At $2229L, the Aria51 doll is not cheap but if you plan on wearing the shape and skin included in the package, I think it's a good deal. We're way too attached to our own shape (plus we both like our boobs and think that Aria's are a lil bit small!!). All the prims are no mod but includes a resizer script, so just a heads up if you like being able to mod/tint your prims.
Aria51 vs. Gogo
My friend Krystal made the best video of herself in the Aria51 outfit.. seen here on youtube:
Wasabi Pills has just released a new line of skins named Miss Friday. The skins are available in 3 skin tones: Fair, Bronze, and Cookie in 12 different makeups each. Shown below are the BRONZE tone and all the gorgeous makeups. The eyeshadow on these are striking, a pretty blend of bold and girlish colors.

Here's a close-up of some of the makeups, you'll see what I mean about them being totally gorgeous. Oh, and they make a great base for tintable lashes!! I've tinted my lashes to match each skin:
Tp to Wasabi Pills on the Osaka sim for all the latest!!
While the SL client does not have built-in emotions for our avatars to express themselves, there are free Emoters available in-world with over a dozen facial expressions. I rarely ever use it, but I find myself wanting to, every time I see screen captures from The Sims!!
The reason I think that most people don't use Emoters is because it makes our avatars look more creepy than cute! And if you're a prim-lash-wearing-addict like myself, the prim lashes stay in place and appears to be floating away from your avatar's face rather than move along with the eyelids. Currently there's no way to force prim lashes to move, but for photography you can edit them to fit each emotion and fake a perfect fit. :P
I'm not a Photoshop genius, so I try to set up the shot as close to what I want as possible in-world.
1. Press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+D, to bring up the Advanced client menu
2. Go to Advanced -> Character -> Slow Motion Animations and click to enable it
(Slow Motion Animations is a feature that slows down animations on your client only, so others will not see this but it is useful when trying to capture dances, emotes, poses, etc.)
*note: Don't forget to uncheck Slow Motion Animations once you're done using it, otherwise animations will look too slow on your client.)
3. Play with the random expressions on the Emoter and snap away!!
For the photograph above, I used a combination of "Mouth Open" and "Big Smile" to create a totally new facial expression! I haven't experimented with all the expressions to see what "new" emotions I can create, but Slow Motion Animations is a great feature and lots of fun when combined with an Emoter HUD.
Happy...
Unhappy....
Where to get an Emoter HUD? I use the one that came with my MystiTool, but they're free everywhere!! Ask someone you know, they might be able to pass you a copy. :P
For this blog entry, I've tried to use lighting that has more shadows because the images are captured with scenery, rather than my usual prim background. Do you prefer photographs that are typical blog-style (see my Lighting Tutorial) or with more depth? I've been criticized for taking 'flat' photos because I eliminate all shadows when I blog items... so I'm really trying to experiment with other lighting!
A typical Gogo-style blog photo:
With Shadows:
I agree the 2nd photo makes SL look way better, because SL is beautiful!!!! <3 Windlight. But when I'm blogging skins I prefer well-lit images with no shadows.
