Say It Loud

Say It Loud

I love shape and skin hopping. After almost a year in-world I still very much enjoy the playing with paper dolls aspect of SL. I was lucky enough to win a major shape store’s big drawing my first week in SL, and I have at least half a zillion (yes, I counted) skins, demo skins, freebie skins, spam, eggs, bacon, spam and skins in my inventory, including a variety of ethnic skins I have played with from time to time. Nothing ever looked quite right, and many of the shapes I tried seemed overly exaggerated.

About ten days ago I saw an interesting post by Khitten Kurka mentioning the Kiko Life sim. I went to check it out and was immediately impressed by what I saw on the adboards. The shapes themselves were curvy and quite lovely, but I was particularly impressed with the time Kiko had spent on the faces. Full, but very, very pretty. Kiko himself happened to be in the store when I stopped by, and he was extremely friendly and helpful as I dithered, finally deciding on the Oyadele shape.

The dressing of cats is a difficult matter…

When I first met Kristya Svenska she was relatively new to SL and had her own photo studio. We also happened to have been pretty much twins, having both independently chosen the same shape and skin.

Fairies, butterflies, or super heroines. However your costume fantasies tend to run, the odds are you will be able to find a dollarbie to your taste at the hunt at Lemania Indigo.

The hunt started Sunday and runs until March 30. There are 30 fantasy globes scattered around the main store and sim with Lemania’s and Summer’s creations, and most of the other shops in the sim also have many globes scattered about, all for one linden each.

Christmas Mood Indigo

It scares me to think how big my closet might be if I had an unlimited shopping budget. One of my first SL friends was a lucky chair addict, and she showed me the wonders of lucky chairs, group gifts, and hunts. After a while, my inventory looked like the Florida Keys after a hurricane. Junk everywhere.

I have since become slightly more judicious, but still love a good bargain. I have a regular circuit of shops that have nice items in the lucky chairs.

At the top of my list is Lemania Indigo. She is one of the most generous designers I have encountered in my short time in SL. She has three lucky chairs scattered around the sim, and, like a good rock album, no filler material.
