In Mah Skivvies

A heat wave is coming. So I ran over to Magical Fairy Designs and picked up the airiest thing possible. Now all that is left is to sit by the pool and enjoy a nice cold beer.

Ahhh, Can you feel the breeze?

SLexy Judgy Wudgy Committee, Session 1: MetaMan.

It's SL men's fashion week, so our SLexy resident man Gavin McGinnis agreed to take on Sileny's blogger challenge (the assignment: to create a "Preppy" look) + be generally objectified by us ladies. We decided to make a go of it by shooting 3 looks + inviting a few of our SLexy fam to freely judge/comment/snark away. Take a look.
Journey Lorakeet: Um. Lol.
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: I think somebody got lost on his way to Williamsburg.
DreamAngel Larnia: I think Charlie Brown lost his sweater.
Journey Lorakeet: Hipster!!
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: lol right Journey? it's d-bag time, fo shiz!
Journey Lorakeet: He's definitely channeling Charlie Brown with that sweater. But I don't think the bag matches anything, rofl.
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: Yeah it does -- there's some light red on his plaid shirt! And I like the yellow glasses. That was G's idea, hehe.
DreamAngel Larnia: Is Snoopy hiding in his backpack?
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: OK, this was G's "Preppy" look for Sileny's blogger challenge.
Journey Lorakeet: Ohhh, now this I like. Nothing bad to say, it all looks good.
DreamAngel Larnia: Agreed.
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: The golfing gloves are free, actually G found those! Gold star.
DreamAngel Larnia: The grass is definitely "greener" on this side. Sexy shot!
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: I think this is how most (straight) guys would dress themselves. Like, on a good day.
DreamAngel Larnia: I'm stumped on this one.
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: Well, if you saw a guy wearing this in a club, what would you think?
DreamAngel Larnia: I dunno, he would kinda blend in with the crowd... nothing stands out?
Journey Lorakeet: He needs accessories to complete the outfit, a watch and a nice leather belt.
DreamAngel Larnia: Yeah, agreed Journey. We want some bling!
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: Bling?! This ain't New Joisey. Come on!
Journey Lorakeet: He looks like, um, a high class call guy.
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: Well G's avi is here, and he is afk at the mo', so...we could rent out his body + make some $L.
DreamAngel Larnia: Hmmm... lol.
Journey Lorakeet: He left his body!!
Teshan2222 Wycliffe: Lol. Yes.
Journey Lorakeet: Yay!

Um, ahem. Any suggestions for Gavin's next look are welcome (my vote is for any 1 of the many dresses he's won at lucky boards whilst hanging out with moi, lol); subject to the SLexy Judgy Wudgy Committee, of course.

Huge *mwuahs* to Gavin McGinnis for being such an uncomplaining Ken doll. Judgy wudgy wuz a bear love + fashionista kisses to all!

Taking Over the World. . .1 Donut at a Time (My First Post!)

Hi, Gavin here. Those of you who might've seen my name before might know me as one of the manshionistas of SLexy (or at least that's what Tesh likes to call us male models) but now I'm going to open my mouth and prove I'm more than just a pretty face.

Exploring the many SIMs in SL I ran across this awesome donut cannon. Yes I said Donut. Cannon.Strapping on this monster started giving me visions of taking over the world. As in, blasting anyone who got in my way. With donuts.

Loaded up with everything from powdered donuts to my favorite (the almighty glazed donut) I was successfully TP'ing from SIM to SIM, donut conquering everywhere I went. All was going to plan until I ran into my favorite fashionista and blogger extraordinaire, Tesh.
She was armed with the only known defense, a can of Flattery Salmon. This can of flattery salmon is very powerful. It distracts an unsuspecting victim with flattering pick-up lines to move in and disable them.
As Tesh approached me I heard stuff like this:

"For a moment I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Now I see that I am very much alive and heaven has been brought to me."

Then another one:
"If I received a nickel for every time I saw someone as stunning as you, I'd have five cents."

And this:
"Excuse me, I'd like to have kids someday, and I wanted to know how your parents created such a beautiful creature."

I became so distracted by all the flattery that before I knew what happened, Tesh had pinned me on the ground and knocked the donut cannon out of my hands. Thanks to a fashionista, the SL world was safe again to travel.

I would like to thank Tesh for being so supportive and helping me with my very first blog. Without her this post would not have been possible. Thank You

Gavin McGinnis
I liked writing my first blog.

Her Majesty, Donna Flora

Donna Flora creator Squinternet Larnia is debuting 4 new pieces with unmistakably royal flair at the Accessory Fair that kicked off this weekend. Let's take a peek, shall we? *gets serious gown face on*
Check out a close-up of the magnificent necklace from Squinternet's regal "Victoria" set. Just look at this crazy thing.
As always, couture lies in the details: the crowning emerald gem, set in yellow gold, conjures a feeling of a majestic heirloom piece + these teeny-tiny seed pearls totally channel a vintage feel. I love the simplicty of the dark eggplant-colored velvet cord, which sets off this meticulously bejeweled look so perfectly. It's like a details bonanza.

This exquisite "Pink Spring" choker features a fuscia "gem flower" with utterly realistic cabachon texturing (take it from this RL jewelry designer -- this type of gem "vein" texturing is tha shizzz). Medallion-like earrings round out the set.
Squinternet's new "Estre" earrings have a bit of modern edge to them with a tiny gold spiral border + suspended oval loops "catching" these suspended seed pearls. ZOMG are these cool.
The "Emmanuelle" set showcases one of Squinternet's signature design styles: this necklace combines several types of gems going all the way around the neck + plays with stone size, featuring clusters of tiny little gems dancing alongside clusters of lustrous round pearls. Matching earrings cascade down the earlobe in a stately "chandelier" style.
This ridic gorges gown I'm wearing thruout is the current group gift by Marinoco Fashion + I think one of the best $1L finds on the grid right now. This rich creme/light nude beige color is baked to satiny perfection + the knee-length sheer skirt adds a subtly sexy touch; I just luhs these Breakfast At Tiffany's-like long arm gloves with this strapless look. (This gift also includes some awes purple-tinged wings for anyone into the fairy thing; I'll try to show these on a fairy look post for Free*Style). The Honey Kitty knee-high socks are just for added sass.
*Mwuahs* to Her Majesty, Squinternet Larnia for once again letting me showcase her drop-dead gorges creations. Jewelry love + fashionista kisses to all!

Grin & Bear It

I have a particular fondness for bears + some recent gifties + other bear-y cute finds seemed to call for a li'l showing.

I won these free cute slippers in the Mocha lucky board about a month ago + I've been parading around in them ever since. The lucky boards are giving them away in cream, dark brown + light brown colors, in addition to some girlie-girl high-cut panties. The store has moved slightly (a little down the road from its former location) so take this updated sLURL here to hit it. How cute are these li'l guys?
Kue just started a new MM board giftie, this free adorable bear pillow. It comes with 2 sits (shown here) + is such an awes thing to chillax with in front of a fire. The bear is even holding a little red heart. Awwws! Fair warning: the count is low on this MM board -- like, 10 low -- so if you want this thing, it's best to plan for an early slappy.
These earmuffs were a $20L find by Ruru@Pino @ Last Period. Aren't they ahhhdorables?
This red + black striped minidress that I'm wearing with these fluffy bear earmuffs was another $1L find at Last Period (I believe it's by MeteoRain but don't quote me on that). This belted mini is such a fun party look. I couldn't resist adding the smexeh schoolmarm glasses that are free by NALA for the Cupid Heart Hunt. Love the unique red "heart shadows" that sit below the eyes on these. Life is all about the fashion extras.
This pretty updo hair by Junwave can be found for $1L at the new KDC Hair Mall. In honor of the new opening, nearly all the vendors have set out free + $1L gifties. (Somebody please holla at me if you see a "T" in that Salon Cri-Cri lucky board -- that ribbon hair is just too kyoot!) This Junwave updo is really cute; you get 3 colors + there's a handy auto script resizer too.

Here's a close-up of the To. Die. necklace I'm wearing with this look, which is a spectacular emerald Art Deco design by Millette @ Switch. This is one of those exceptional finds that I just could not believe was a gift. This fastidiously detailed piece will set you back all of $1L.
I'll close this post with a quick shot of what struck me as being the anti-teddy bear: this red-pinned voodoo doll, which you can scoop as a photo studio with 2 poses by Tuft at the $50L Valentine's Bazaar (where I also scooped this pretty $50L Pink Fuel skin I'm wearing in these last shots). Too bad Gavin severely underestimated my superior voodoo powers here.
Hope everyone is having a bear-y good Hump Day. Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Casual Friday

I've been in a major minidress mood lately + wanted to show a quick look I threw together mostly as a hooray since I finally got the Junwave lucky board to show me some love. -- Now I realize that the writing on the side of this cap might be whatevs, but this hat hair is still tres cute.
I didn't realize it, but Junwave has a whole wall of $20L gatcha games (random gift giver). It's along the same side of the store as the Profile Picks rewards (to the right, when you walk in). My $20L got me this cute white skully wristband, which totally fit my mood with this look. The smoky purple rose ring is another gatcha at Mocha (for $10L per play), where you can win all sorts of rose, heart + gem rings in fun colors.
I've been seeing this Glam Affair necklace on the feeds paired with more dressed-up looks, but to me, this chunky gold chain accented with these way fun white and gold stars begged for a more chillax style. I also liked how this $1L navy blue tattoo echoed the deep, rich hues of the dress.
The tiny cherry red heart pendant necklace I'm wearing is part of the new Valentine's Day $1L gifts set out at Mayden Couture. This necklace features tiny little metal studs that give off a subtle sparkling effect + comes with matching earrings with the same sparkle. (They have 4 gift bags here, including some pretty "bow" lingerie + some stuff for men too). Gotta love the whole layering the necklaces thing.

Hope everyone is TGIF'ing the day away. Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Leggo My Aoharu

If the words frugalista + fashionista reside anywhere in your SL shopping soul, you've likely been trying to battle your way into the Aoharu + Anexx SIMs to do the grabby grabby thing at their much-anticipated 50% off sale.

Because these stores have such classic pieces for guys -- it's definitely one of Gavin's faves -- we thought it would be fun to shoot both guys + girls looks to show you. -- For my frugalistas: as usual I've tried to incorporate at least one freebie or other gift into nearly all of these looks, so even if you have zero spare $L, hopefully you'll still see some things you wanna scoop below.

I have a thing for jackets + when I saw this candy pink cropped leather one with roll-up sleeves + a blue denim lining, I was a goner. (Or more precisely, my $L were Just. Gone). This thing is bursting with details, from the gold studs on the jacket to the "rough" collar texture. I layered this jacket on top of one of my go-tos tank tops, the free white lace-edged pink "Spicy" tank by PARADISIS. -- Gavin's black vest + gray hoodie combo is one of my faves on him -- especially with these black "vintage wash" jeans. To me, this guys' look oozes relaxed cool, with none of that TTH-ing (you know, Trying Too Hard) thing.Here's a close-up to show a second look at the open black lace "patchwork" that's inset into these jeans. (Sorry this image is a tad fuzzy, SL refused to cooperate with me on this shot). The little scratchy textures might be '80s-retro but as in RL, that style period throwback simply refuses to vanish completely. LOL.
Isn't this 1-sided pony cap hair cute? It's also free, courtesy of the MM board at IrEn. It comes with your several color change optionns for both the hair + the cap. There's more cute free hairs here scattered thru the store (as hunt items + other gifties) too; be sure to scoop the free "Geisha" tattoo on the ground which is kinda cool (look near the freebies table).
I've had my sad, /me-wants-those eyes on these Anexx "ribbon pumps" for awhile now. Good thing 50% off sales are like, instant mood lifters! *happy dance*
One of the best men's holiday gifts previously at Le.Look! was the men's brown leather jacket by Aoharu. Gavin liked this jacket so much that he scooped the black leather version as well, which comes with the option of wearing a just-wrinkled, button-down black shirt inside (that's nicely unbuttoned at the bottom). -- Here I'm wearing Aoharu's belted black snakeskin trench dress which I have a feeling is gonna become my go-to for when I can't decide what to wear. You literally just slip it on + hey presto! Instant pulled-together look.

See how dressed up we get for sushi here.
Yes, I am a Truth hair addict. This "Saskia" style is one that I actually purchased by mistake (by chatting + not paying attention + hitting the "Buy" button . . . danger!) -- and then promptly fell in luhs with. My $L have a deep + abiding connection with the Truth store and I am powerless to stop it. *sighs*
These Aoharu lace-up platforms are both dramatic + sexy; the gold-tinged ribbon at the back adds just the right oomph of color contrast. These are such a statement, especially when worn with a clean or relatively simple black look, so that the ribbon lace-ups on these really pop against the legs.
Gavin + I decided to do a li'l record shopping, so a more dress-down vibe was in order. Check out this slouchy, off-the-shoulder zebra top that I'm modeling here, that I paired with these black lace "patchwork" gray jeans (both by Aoharu). The PacMan necklace is free by Ducknipple + this ridic sexy "Reese" hair (with choppy layers that fall longer in the front) is -- yup, from Truth.
Isn't this skin divine? It's free in the Cupcakes group Notices (the group join fee is currently $0L until I believe this coming Sunday). These undereye bags are somewhat of a novelty in face-perfect SL skinland; there's funny "drunken" skins included in the gift too.
Gavin is modeling the Aoharu men's jeans in "vintage blue" wash here. He's also showing last week's $1L men's fashion week giftie from Connors, this beige henley with a nicely shaded V-neck collar.
Of course a certain someone couldn't resist the 99 cents bin.

"Geez, they don't they have any old Boyz II Men albums here! -- Wait! Is that an original Britney Spears in this 99 cents bin? Score!"
Meanwhile I was having awes vinyl scoring luck too. Here's me getting my paws on an original De La Soul 12" -- also in the 99 cents section! Somebody really needs to pay better attention about their store inventory here.
These Anexx yellow gold "fringe pumps" were so yummehs that I had to score the fatpack (actually the best deal for how many colors you get, especially after the 50% off). -- See how my SL gfs failed at preventing me from yet another shoes splurge? *giggles* Oh wellz. Life goes on.
Check out how snuggly these light pink Anexx boots are. You get your choice of 2 textures; I'm showing the "Nordic" legwarmers knit here. My calves are so warm + toasty now. Oh yes.
This is another denim jacket by Aoharu (it comes with an optional leopard print which I've left off here), which I've paired a sexy sheer cami from Sassy! that you can get for free in its subscribo. I'm also wearing the free Fhang Candy skin that you can win in the store's MM board. The skin has intensely-hued makeup with a candy-pink lip, and a gorgeous tan glow. *mwuahs Michi Fhang for the bazillionth time*

Gavin is wearing the free unisex sunglasses gift for the the Shoes & Accessories Hunt by Kumaki Glasses Style (this is such an awes store for both glasses + sunglasses), which come in your choice of customizable tints + shading colors. I'm wearing another color of the Aoharu black lace "patchwork" jeans here. -- Aaaah this brisk winter air is so great for striking these super nonchalant poses.
Now for just the thing after a hard day of elbow jostling + battling the dreaded lag monster . . . a foot massage . . . by a guy! This sweet + funny foot massage animation chair is the Burning Hearts Hunt gift from Kabuki Creations + comes with a gentle foot stroking ani. -- Ladies: this is life as it should be, no? Many thanks to Dudda Susa for helping me with this one . . . . my weary feets were thanking you girl! *mwuah*
The Aoharu + Anexx SIM sale runs thru January 24, so you have time. If you've got some $L to spare, shoe mavens will wanna do an Anexx drive-by. At the 50% off price, most shoes seemed to be under $300L (with some under $200L). -- At Aoharu, a single piece of women's clothing started roughly around $150L-$200L; guys' clothing started even lower (for example, jeans and tops seemed were around $100L per color). Fatpacks were also a far better deal per item so make sure you check them before you buy the single (I found these worth it if you really like 2 or more colors of the same style).

O you amazing sales. Why do you always end up costing me more $L? *sigh*

Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Arcade Games (i.e. Pizza & Ice Cream Night)

"G, I've been hitting the treadmill like a crazy woman all week. Where can we go for some yummeh ice cream?"
"This place has great pizza + old-school arcade games. But I wanna shoot some hoops first. We can get your ice cream after."
"Listen, they don't call me Gavin "Hoops" McGinnis for nuthin'."
"McGinnis drives in from the outside for the 3-pointer!"
"All those hoops sure made me hongry. This pizza sure looks tasty."
"But G, I don't want pizza. Besides, this vending machine has my Cheetos."
"Woman, don't argue. You're going to eat this pizza and like it."
"But G . . . I really want a club sandwich. With no lettuce and extra tomatoes."
*best cute face*"Um yeah, can I get a club sandwich for delivery please. No lettuce and extra tomatoes. That's right I said no lettuce. And could you guys hurry? Kinda gotta hongry bear situation over here."
"Awww, they even remembered to put the little flag in it! Too bad they forgot about the lettuce tho'."
"Looky G, I can munch my club sandwich + play Skee-Ball at the same time! We women are such awes multi-taskers."
"And I haven't been real thrilled with all your bossyness tonite. Your PacMan ass is grass, McGinnis."
"Dream on, Wycliffe. I've held the PacMan Hi Score here for like, a bazillion years."
"Fine, Mr. Bossypants. But I got mad skillz on this here Dance Machine. Try to keep up, buddy."
"No, it's right, THEN left!"
"You can't beat my Soul Train moves, G. I watch it every Saturday, right after America's Next Top Model, so now I'm like, le good."
"That's mighty impressive + all, but I am the Whack-A-Mole king."
"OK Mr. King, knock yourself out. It's strawberry ice cream time for moi."
"Well I prefer vanilla anyway, so that's what we call a win-win.'"
"Dibs on the cherry. Ha. MINE!!"
Ahem. We wanted to kick off the new year right with some arcade games + junk food (take that, resolutions!) Not to mention some good old-fashioned competitive spirit + a teeny tiny bit of female (sandwich) manipulation.

Plus our outfits just seemed so wrong for a retro arcade games setting that they just had to be right. You know how that goes sometimes.

Btw this arcade had a fabby lucky chair, where you can win everything from free '80s movies posters to a free arcade games set for your home. Too awes! (Somebody holla at me if they spot a "T").

Happy new year everyone! Love + fashionista kisses to all!
