And what girl doesn’t desire a new pair of shoes? Well, this weekend we are going to be completely spoiled! Not only are we getting these beautiful rigged mesh feet, but a whole line of shoes coming from the all new Gos Boutique. Gos Boutique is a part of the Gos enterprise and the main focus of the boutique will be on women’s shoes. So ladies, I suggest you guys make some space and join the Gos Boutique inworld group right now to keep up with the shoe craze that is about to hit the grid.
The best part about these feet and shoes is the actual tinting, it is so simple! Gos’ coders have scripted it so well and it’s all done through a website. It literally took me a few minutes to understand, pick my favorite five skins to add to the hud, press one button and voila, my feet were matched perfectly.
If you haven’t seen this video of the sexy Ms. Elysium Eilde showing step by step how to use the HUD, then you really must see it! You will see just how revolutionary this system is.
I do love all of the shoes, but I have to admit that my favs are the Mae heels, they just make me melt. You can see me wearing them on Secondlife.com right now!
Mark your calendars ladies and get your lindens ready, it all starts tomorrow! <3

My sincerest apologies for all my blogging spam lately, I have just been feeling so inspired and wanted to get all this desire for blogging out of my system before I leave for vacation in a few days.
Also, I just noticed that the pictures that I did for Linden Lab back in November finally made it up on SecondLife.com today. This time I have two up there which was even more surprising. I did two because I couldn’t decide which look to do so I decided to send them both and let them decide, didn’t think they would use both, LOL! But, I’m glad they did, I really wanted this second one up there and I’m glad it made it.
This time they asked us to create images with the theme: “Winter Holidays” and I think everyone did a fabulous job with that. Also congrats to Miaa Rebane, Faint Paulse, Vixie Rayna, Sixx Yangtz and Harper Beresford for getting their images on SecondLife.com as well.
Don’t forget to follow Second Life on the following social networks.
People always ask me how I get my picture on the SL main page, if it was some sort of contest I entered or something. Well, one of the Lindens emailed me and asked me to do it and I’m assuming that’s how the others that are there were approached as well. I’m not sure how the Lab heard of me, but I know one thing that might help you get noticed by them is by submitting your pictures to the Second Life Official Flickr Group! They choose a picture of the day from there every day to showcase. However, make sure to read the terms at the bottom of this page so you know what they can use your images for once you submit them there!
Finally, a big thank you to Linden Lab for reaching out to the community this way!
Happy Holidays everyone! <3

I had the honor of being interviewed by Bare. Bare is a project started by Adorkable Peapod and TrinityBelle Meriman where they interview different SLers around the grid. They just recently started it but have a few interviews up already. They’ve started with approaching regular plurkers, so if you guys are on plurk make sure to add Adorkable Peopod to keep up to date with all the Bare posts.
I’ve really enjoyed reading the interviews they’ve done so far and am honored to be included. I know I’ve been interviewed several times before, but I did get a bit more personal and intimate in this one. Hope you guys read it and comment! <3
Thank you again Adorkable and Trinity for this opportunity to share a little more of myself. <3
Although my birthday starts now (the 22nd of September) I’ve been feeling like it’s my birthday all day. You see, the bratty Mr. Prad Prathivi decided to give me a surprise and sent me on a birthday quest (although at the time I had no idea it was him). And so I asked my plurk friends to help me out and after 5 hours of ripping our hair out kind of fun, LOL, we found the surprise!
You can read about all the adventures of the quest in the following plurks:
I am still giddy and blushing and in shock from all of it but it was so much fun. Thank you, Prad, for one of the best birthday gifts I’ve ever received! <3 And thank you to all of the people that helped me with the clues. I know there is NO way that I would have figured out all that by myself. Some of you are pure geniuses!
Hey it’s my birthday, and this is crazy, but here’s a picture, so pile me up, maybe?
I processed the first image for a quick birthday post and after processing it, while I was writing this I remembered that I usually do a pile up for my birthday each year. Here’s my post from 2011 and the one from 2010. So I decided I would just put both images in (the processed and raw). I would love it if you guys would take the time to pile me up. If you’re not familiar with the concept of piling up, you can check out the pile up flickr group for more details. Basically you can take the above image and do whatever you like to it! (Except add mangoes :P).
Thank you again everyone for making this birthday of mine so much fun, even though it just started. I love you guys!

I couldn’t resist using my ALT today to show the back of this hot new mesh dress. This sexy dress came out in perfect time to help me celebrate my Plurk Anniversary today. Four years ago today I found plurk.
I admit, I have somewhat of a love/hate relationship with plurk at times. Since I’ve been there four years and my timeline is public (and I rarely remove people), I have accumulated quite a number of friends. At times, plurk can be very overwhelming, but it is definitely my most favorite social network of ALL of the social networks I am on. Plurk is where I go to rant, gossip or just share silly articles and my blog posts. Whenever I have a question about anything, especially if it’s SL related, I always turn to plurk because my plurk friends are just brilliant it seems! They ALWAYS have the answer to everything. I have blogged about plurk in the past, many times, and even did a “Berry’s Favorite Things Post” about it once.
Plurk has somewhat of a bad reputation for being a drama-ridden hell-hole and although at times it can be :P It’s not like that most of the time, not for me anyways. Plurk is what you make it. I like to use it to be goofy and playful but I also like to use it to stay informed.
I’m going to list some plurkers now that I think are a good follow if you’d like to stay informed about SL related things. (I made sure all of these plurkers have public timelines, are open to having people friending and following them and are relatively drama-free most of the time):
@Codie – If you look at Codie’s start date on plurk, she’s been a member since June 2008. To my understanding, she was one of the first SLers to discover and join plurk and is currently the one with the most friends and fans. She plurks a lot about technology and current events. Lots of intellectual discussions happening in her plurks but at the same time, she also plurks a lot of herself sharing personal things as well which is always a nice mix.
@anubisdarkwatch – Anubis is an SL DJ but in plurk he is the person I turn to when I just want to relax and have a good laugh. He always has a funny picture or meme up his sleeve. He’s genuinely nice and friendly with everyone, and that’s what I love about him the most! <3
For news and updates about mesh the following are the plurkers you want to follow: @EmmaG, @DamienFate and @maxwell_graf. Of course they do plurk about other personal things, current events and things they are creating inworld. However, whenever there is any news about mesh with jiras and linden meetings, etc… they are usually the first to know and plurk about it.
Informative ladies: @Vaki and @cajsalilliehook – Both of them share a lot of great information if you want to keep up with current events, especially leaning towards the political side and of course they throw in SL fashion in the mix as well. These are the ladies to have on your timeline if you want to have intellectual and informative conversations about a variety of topics.
SL News: @danielvoyager, @nalates, @Hamlet_Au and Inara_Pey- All of them will keep you up to date with everything going on in SL from events to technology and even other virtual worlds. Their blogs are where I get the latest SL related news from.
And FINALLY, don’t forget to follow @Secondlife they plurk all sorts of information on a daily basis, including the Picture of the Day! Which I was chosen for today, so thank you Second Life for that! :D A lot of people ask HOW do you get chosen to be Picture of the day, well all you have to do is submit your picture into the Second Life Official Flickr Group, but make sure to read the description of the group carefully so you know all the terms before submitting your pictures in there!
There are so many more people that I LOVE to follow and read but the majority of them have private timelines or plurk things that are very personal to them so I didn’t want to link to them out of respect. But once you join plurk, make sure to add me and join the conversations! Also, if you are already on plurk but not on my timeline, I am really shy about sending requests to people because I don’t always get a chance to read everyone. But if you ever wish to add me, please feel free to send me a request, I always accept!
Finally, a big thank you to all of my plurk friends for putting up with my goofy plurks and answering the dozens of questions I ask all of the time. You guys have been there for me a lot, especially recently when I’ve been having a lot of ups and downs. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you! It’s been a wonderful four years and I look forward to many more! <3
