Bella's Second Life Style

Back before mesh avatars, I created an outfit, I scrapped it however thinking no one wanted texture applier clothing anymore.. I realised recently that there is a place for texture appliers since sometimes when piecing together an outfit you have clothes glitching through other clothes! So I've brought back my flame outfit, I edited it to improve the texture and created it in multiple colours. The inspiration to pull it out from the back of my hard drive also came from my purchases from Sole, they had a sale so I splurged to get their SciFi items; arm tech, greaves, wrap belt, backpack, mask and sword. As I was readying my outfit to piece with it, Azoury also had their Robotic head on sale at an event which was awesome timing for me.  You can grab my flame outfit from my store, Rariti on the marketplace. This is one of the bonus colours available for the Fatpack . Wearing in Top SciFi Pic   Head : ┍  Azoury  ┙ Nicodeme Robotic Head Body: ...

I am so excited that it's Christmas time! It's a time of love, joy and appreciation plus all the nostalgia of childhood Christmas'! My family and I's Christmas is a celebration of nature so in our house we have 4 Christmas trees, one for each season. It's fun to decorate accordingly as well as to appreciate nature! Christmas is also fun in Second Life with all the amazing things being made and the many gifts stores are giving out in their advent calendars! I enjoy digging through my inventory finding my Christmas stuff and this year I have created my own Christmas item! It started as a simple glowing red nose to go along with my deer body, turning me into Rudolph. My partner helped me to add a re-size script and an option to turn the glow on and off. Later he showed me that he could make it flash, give different colour options and make it flash rainbow colours! I have popped it up on my marketplace store . It's such a fun glowing nose for Christma...

I did a photo shoot for my ripped stockings ad and I liked how this pic came out! I enjoy deep thought and I like how my avi looks deep in contemplation at the end of the day, shoes kicked off, relaxing.

I've just opened up a Market Place store, called Rariti . So far I have my ripped stockings which I created and I am looking into full perm mesh apparel to start creating. I love creating textures and being artistic so I'm excited to get into it! I was inspired by mermaids, unicorns and holographic prints when making my logo and I had a lot of fun with it! These ripped stockings I created because I wanted some grunge stockings to go with my outfit for this photo. They are appliers which I like since they disappear with alpha layers and don't glitch through shoes or clothing.

I finally got a Catwa head and I love it! See on Flickr   Here's my tip to choose a head!  I have been wanting a Catwa head on and off for months but didn't buy one because I already had a head. In my shopping adventures I'd noticed that many head appliers are made for Catwa, especially gacha's which I love buying because I can pick up some really nice stuff for super cheap. So I made the decision to buy a Catwa head but that was only the beginning because then I had to choose one, there are 20! I spent days demoing different Catwa heads, some I didn't like personally but a few I did and I didn't know how to figure out which one I liked best because by the time I'd tried on a few I couldn't remember the first! *Giggles* So I tried taking screenshots then comparing but that didn't really help as a screen shot just isn't the same as in world. I shared my frustration with my partner, he was amused... but then he helped me out. He said...

One thing I love about Second Life is that it's open for complete creativity. You can be, do or have whatever you like and people's imaginations come alive! The same goes in your first life too, believe in yourself and allow your dreams to come true!

Recently in my exploration I found a fun kawaii type store with sales on! It's called *Epic* and I got these cute skates which include a skating animation as well as heart trail particles. I also got these ice cream wings which can be worn with or without falling heart particles and come with a re-size script. Please note: I stumbled across *Epic*'s sale in world and I don't know when it's ending, I also found that things were on sale in world but on the marketplace were their normal price. I also came across a cute store on the Marketplace called Ninet...

Today I discovered a store on the Second Life Marketplace called Casadel... They sell original women's apparel, their designs include buckles, straps and chains, I really like this style and everything is available in many different colours. I liked that they're average price was about $150L. Their items also come with HUDs to change the colour of the metal. You can try before you buy with demo's available from their MP store . I fell in love with the "Abigail" shorts and bought them in turquoise with mixed flowers and then mixed and matched them with items from my inventory to create this look. I'd love to know of more high quality, affordable stores like these with original designs, please leave a comment and share your favourites!
