Stranded, but at least I have...

Stranded on this desert island, fortunately I have new Lolas appliers for the Wild Style Bandeau Bikini!  And new SLink flat feet.  And new glasses!

I was looking through my inventory the other day for some cool glasses to wear with a bad-ass outfit, and all I could find were my old Kalnins with a crazy number of scripts in them.  I got to thinking "Why don't I make a pair?  So I whipped together a design.  Nothing super-fancy, but functional and served what I needed for the outfit.  The more I wore them, the more I liked them, and started giving them to all my friends.  Then I decided to give them away to my store group.

Experimenting with making shimmery clothes...

I saw some clothing in SL that had this "shimmer" effect, and talked with people at Builders Brewery to see how it's done.  It's easier than you might think!  So, clothing designers, if you're interested in how to make your mesh outfits shimmer, here's an option (besides having a texture animation script)...

Basic materials!  (requires materials-enabled viewer to see the bumpiness, which makes the whole effect):

Want it?  If you already have the mini, just let me know, and I'll pass this to you FREE.

Ribbon Dress update

This week I'm re-releasing the ribbon dress, complete with Lolas Tango appliers and Deviance [d] Lush implant appliers.  If you have ::mused:: or some other implant and want an applier, let me know.  I'll try to put one together.  I find that those other appliers are very tricky to set up, so I probably won't do them anymore except by request.

For the ribbon dress redesign, I softened the flexi fabric attachments at either end of the ribbon, in addition to uploading all new textures to support the implants.  I hope you like the result!
