There has not been much that has been able to awake me from my much appreciated state of hybernation, but last weekend's stir up has even reached my lair and I just have to add my 2 cts.The blatant skin theft that has been going on is not only damaging for our content creators that put hours and hours of work and a lot of love in their creations, only to see some jackasses riping it off and

It's your turn because I am not going to review RaC skins. Honestly, without ranting about it, it is one of the skin brands I like less in SL. Like probably everyone else I was smitten with the cute faces when I first got to know this brand, but when I tried on the demos my love died pretty fast, if not instantaneously. Too many flaws and details that I didn't like caught my eye as soon as I took

.... you have no time for blogging. Work is crazy, a project I am working on is in a critical phase and needs all my attention and energy. I hope to be back by the end of the month when things are getting back to normal. See you all soon!

Wicked Starley… not only her regular Vogue and Charmed skins are 50% off, to my big surprise I saw that her brand new Fall collection is priced at L$ 500 for a single and L$ 1500 for a fat pack too!!! . I just had to stop by her sim before heading off to RL work today but I had no time left to stack up some L$ and I will have to go back  later to buy them and try them on, but I just wanted to let

Starley Thereian, over at Celestial Studios, has decided to put up her Vogue and Charmed skins (singles and 4 packs) with a 50% discount from Wednesday September 26 through the weekend to celebrate the upcoming release of her fall skins. So I thought it would be a nice occasion to report on the Vogue skins.Now, unlike a lot of residents, I must admit I am not a huge Starley skin fan. I think she

Down Time Wednesday (DTW)... so what does a girl do to satisfy her SL fashion hunger? Scroll the blogs!There are 2 good skin deals I picked up from Fashion World : Tuli Asturias is considering leaving the prices of her skins down at L$ 500 for series 1 and L$ 850 for series 2 and would like to hear what YOU think of that... as if you are going to protest against cheaper and gorgeous skins.....

Oh my, in a world where looking great is only a matter of stopping at the right shops and buying some decent skin (yay), hair, clothes and accessories and play around with the shape sliders for a while, it's incredible how eager everyone is to be in beauty pageants and model contests. Let alone the shameless self promotion on the various blogs and feeds.Sorry, but the "vote for me" bogus is

Bad, bad Sezmra Svarog.... After having tortured zee boyz last fall.. winter and spring in anticipation for her update of the male skin line, right now she is well on her way doing exactly the same with us girls.. giving us preview after preview of the sweet new Samantha faces, but never the notice attached that she actually released them. Sezmra's RL is keeping her from it... Yeah.. RL is a pain

With all the in world reactions I have received on my first few blog posts, there was also the question if I apply a review policy. Well, honestly, I can be quite concise about it: if a skin has my interest, I will probably write about it, I do accept review copies (see Q&A) but I am not going to ask you for them. Other than that, I have not really given it any thoughts yet.Now that is a bit

[UPDATE] I have had some questions in world if I would list all the issues in this skin and post piccies. I won't. Suffice to say that I examine skins either by sunrise or sunset, with local lights on and rendering sliders (prefs) in the middle. Noon light is generally skin unfriendly so I'm not using that.Naughty Groupies that cannot stand any critical comment on their skin of choice... please

Some time ago I was over at Calla and saw an absolutely stunning Tigerlily Koi on a vendor ad wearing a skin from Adam 'n Eve. This reminded me that the skins that Sachi Vixen makes are indeed of a flawless perfection, and that my dears, is an understatement.The skin looks buttery soft and I have never been able to spot seams in any of the skins that Sachi has released. I really wonder why other

Hi people, I'm so happy to hear that Tao has added my little blog to to the roll. I have started this blog not too long ago, inspired by the Savoir Hair blog. With all the fashion on here, I felt there was missing a blog that specializes in skins, just like Teagan and Laynie do for hair.I do not pretend this blog to keep up with all the new releases in skin land, nor do I want it to be the wiki

About 2 weeks ago, CJ Carnot and Roslin Petion, owners of Tête à Pied have released their new skin line Vivant. For those of you familiar with TaP skins, you'll have noticed by now that they have made quite a change in their business concept and made great improvements on the skin.In June, Roslin called out for people to send feed back on TaP skins, and even more than her customers opinion, she

And now for something completely different.... Fantasy skins. Oh my, it is so not my cup of tea, but I had a blast trying these skins and taking photos of them. So I thought, since I had the material anyway, I'd be foolish not to blog them although I do not intend this blog to be a new release blog at all. But fantasy skins do deserve a place on Skin Score too. And I must admit... these are well

Fashionably Dead, Toast Bard's shop in Tableau, used to be the best hidden secret of the sim. It took me some time to find out that I had to enter the freezer to get to the goodies. In the mean time, Toast has put out some vendors in the actual shop, together with some totally annoying... ermmmm... adorable noise making sheep, but the skin and hair, as well as the eyes are still in the basement,

Once again big changes have been announced for the Pixeldolls shop and brand. After 2 sim rebuilds in a relatively short period, Nephilaine Protagonist has decided to abandon her current mega store concept and put her lovely designs into several smaller boutiques. In preparation to that, there is quite a sale going on again, but there is also newness: Pixelspa is being brought back, also in

Joannah Cramer's skins have been on my wish list for quite a bit. I think they are among the best in SL, but you don't hear that often about them. I believe Haver Cole won the Lacoste Contest last spring, wearing the dark version of this skin, I decided to show you the medium Brunette version of Lustre, with the natural make up.Buying Lustre is an investment. For only L$ 1,375 you get 4, actually

Shapes and skins are the basic look determining items in Second Life and it seems that more and more content creators are getting into creating them. There are so many fashion blogs, all of which cover skins more or less too, but the idea for this blog first popped in my head a couple of months ago, when I started to read the Savoir Hair blog... I thought it was a wonderful idea, a blog
