Style: a prevailing mode of expression

The Greenies may "Green the Grid," but SL Residents are all about the orange when Halloween rolls around.   Costumes and spooky decorations along with all things pumpkin are popping up left and right.

I'm getting pumped for Halloween in SL myself.  The virtual world is a fantastic place to celebrate the holiday. You don't have to go into temporary Halloween stores advertised by a scary giant clown holding a sign by the highway. You don't have to pay $50 US for something mostly made of vinyl and itchy felt that you'll only wear once, and you'll only wear drunk because it's ridiculously skimpy. You can do so much more with your avi, who isn't confined by the limits of hair spray and doesn't have to worry about uncomfortable shoes!
 

New Kewl Tshirts with clown faces now available in Carnival of Doom. Clown Skins also available in Carnival of Doom.

While you are there dont forget to pick up your freebies for Halloween by the Novelties store.

Today at Carnival of Doom at 12pm SLT PG Broadband will be filming.If you would like to catch your fame and be part of the evil clowns then dress up and come over to Carnival of Doom where the evil clowns will scare the newbies to Hell.

Put your bloody costumes on and come and join the fun with the rest of the carnies and the ring masters.

Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting Takeshi in Crimson Shadow as I introduced him to our new line of male skins in Crimson Shadow. He has taken this beautiful photo and yes I do look really pretty in that dress. Dynasty dress will be on sale in Crimson Shadow today. Please read more on Shop with Takeshi and see more of the gorgeous photos.

To satisfy your curiosity, we've found some photographs from the last time I visited the Rezzable HQ in London. Sadly enough, RaR succeeded at escaping the camera BUT I did get a few nice ones from Miss Lokum:

Miss Lokum, working

... or gender bending. Kinda depends on how you look at it. Male skin testing, she claimed!

Miss Lokum, checking progress on top secret 'Project Grow Pose Ball'

Ok. I guess I screwed the 'secret' part up. Anyway, our R&D department says that it's going fine, but we're encountered some minor problems with letting a diversity of animations grow inside. Also, inserting Mono into the tree's DNA is giving us some problems.

When I first joined SL, I quickly discovered Ivalde and her collection of discounted clothes.  At the time, I was living off sploders and didn't have much money to spend.  What I got from Ivalde only whetted my appetite for more, and when I finally did have the means to buy clothes other than those on the "discount rack", Ivalde was one of the first places I went.

The clothes that I had been drooling over for months did not disappoint.  Neferia was one of the few designers at the time, who had put in as much effort into her discounted/free outfits as she had her regular priced items. 

The "Passions of Black Swan" event has come to a close after twenty of SL's most talented designers came together to bring you their own take on the magic of Black Swan through their creations.  Timeless Modeling Agency will showcase these designs one last time at 2 pm SL today to finish the event with a flourish.  Be sure to arrive early and follow the path to be able to have a front row seat as the models walk the runway one last time.

Every good thing has an end. We have been delighted with the beautiful creations from Passions of Black Swan for the past two weeks. During the past two shows, I have met some great talent and wonderful people and we had a chance to open the doors of Black Swan to many visitors who truly enjoyed the whole experience.

The Passions of Black Swan is closing today with a great big fashion show organised by Timeless Agency today at 2pm and an after party.  I would like to invite everyone  to join one last time and celebrate the endless possibilities  of creativity in SL so come and join us in Black Swan at 2pm.

Winter saunters into the dressing room and sits down in front of the useless mirror. He picks up the style notes and scans them. Suddenly he freezes, and his eyes open wide. He turns to his typist and snarls "A pixie? You turned me into a PIXIE???"

Yes, I did. I figured it was the best way to display the Batpunk set from Crimson Shadow. You can't keep wearing red and black in these blogposts forever, you know. And you know you like wings.

When Clio Cardiff was looking for inspiration to create her "Passions of Black Swan" dress, she found it at the very heart of the sim.  Her gown "Embrace" came from the statue in the middle of Black Swan depicting a man and a woman tightly holding each other.  The statue is one of the many pieces from Light Waves. This master of prim sculpture first envisioned Black Swan and gave it life, especially with his towering statues placed within it like the one Clio loves.
