It’s hot!

Checkin’ the sights @ Baja Norte

Yes, I’m still alive, but barely. This month’s heatwave in my area has been very draining, to say the least. I have been drinking at least 100 oz of water a day (I know some people drink that all of the time and more but not me lol), and I still feel dehydrated.  Between that and feeling not creative, I had decided to take a short break from blogging. But some things started to happen, so I wanted to share with you what’s going on right now.

This is a project that I have been working on – Fashion de Rigueur. Basically, FdR is about helping people look their best in SL. Eventually I want to have workshops that focus on helping people with fashion basics…there are a lot of people with misinformation or little information on how to look their best. I’ll give an example. One of my friends swore that she couldn’t wear mesh, and after I gave her some pointers, she was able to fit into a medium size at Maitreya (gee is their sale still on? I have to go if it is).

In order to help launch FdR, right now we are taking applications for free makeovers. If you visit FdR inworld, you will be able to pick up an application there. Also, FdR is looking for workshop leaders to help run the workshops, so if you are interested just shoot me an IM inworld.

The next thing I would like to bring up is is the Love Donna Flora event that starts on July 25th, and will end on August 11th. I was happy to participate in the Donna Flora A – Z project the other year, and even though I didn’t have the time to apply for official blogger for this event, I still wanted to give attention to this. We have so many charity events in Second Life – it’s nice when it benefits good people that we know personally or through their works and actions.

Currently there is a sale at Glam Affair - 100L for all older skins, which will be retired after the sale is over. The Glam Affair website doesn’t say when the sale will over, so I suggest you go ASAP. I remember when W&Y Hair was closing, it was supposed to be open for 2weeks, and instead it was only 2 days because the owner of the sim did not like the way the traffic was messing up the sim. I was right there…I could had grabbed the hairs! Anyways, the two skins I got (and recommend) are Lilith and Cassiopea. They both use the newer skin tones, so you won’t have to worry about not being able to match your skins to the latest products from other merchants.

Stay tuned for more shortly – I’ve been busy :D
