After skimming through my out-of-control inventory earlier this morning, I realized that this is the first League skin I have ever owned. I am totally shocked about that myself. Not sure why I didn’t get my hermit self there before but I’m really glad I did this time because this Jen skin is just outstanding. I’m so in love with it. It’s very rare that a skin has everything that I’m looking for. I especially love this tone on me. Check out all the details to Jen on Nena Janus’ flickr.

I’m probably going to get yelled at by Zaara for blogging this new lingerie set already, but I just couldn’t help it. Ever since she sent it to me a few days ago, I just didn’t want to take it off. It’s not set to release for at least another week though, sorry about that. The color combinations are amazing, I can’t wait for you guys to see them. There will be 6 color combos and I’m wearing the oreo. The name of the lingerie is Aksaka which means “sensual” in sanskrit and suits this style perfectly. Join the Zaara inworld group or subscribe to the Zaara blog to be the first to know when she releases.

Finally, I thought I would share this site, PicMonkey.com, because I find it so useful as well. If you want to do a quick edit on a pic or if you don’t have Photoshop or another photo editing program, I think you’ll find PicMonkey to be very helpful. The frames you see on these images were placed there using that site, it literally took me 2 minutes to do both images. They have lots of editing options and neat things to play with, so definitely check it out and have a little fun with your pictures!

Recently a lot of you have switched over to using Exodus Viewer and have been contacting me about a few things that you guys are all having problems with. I figured I’d cover them all here cuz it seems everyone is having the same issues.

1. Lines and/or glitches on your pictures: I did get that as well in the latest releases so I have actually gone back to Beta 5 which is available at this link: 11.10.31.1 That’s the release that is working best for me right now without any glitches or other issues. I will keep updating with every new release though and see if it works better for me.
2. New snapshot window: The new snapshot feature is actually part of SL Viewer 3 that Exodus has adapted. You will find the snapshot feature like this not only in Exodus but also in the official SL 3 viewers and any other viewer that has adapted the v3 UI. It’s a bit tricky to get used to but here are some screenshots of the steps you take to take a pic now:
   a. Click Save to Computer
   b. Click Resolution
   c. Choose your desired resolution and hit save
3. My resolution and graphics card: I shoot all of my pictures at 5760×3084 resolution and I have a gtx 560ti graphics card. All of the images you see on my blog are photoshopped (unless otherwise stated).

The tattoo I’m wearing is from Huz Tats. Huz Tats temporarily does not have an inworld location at the moment so if you’ve been looking to pick up some of the brilliant tattoos from there, you can try looking on marketplace or contacting Hunain Bellic inworld and he’ll be able to help you out.

It feels like I haven’t done a Love Thursday post in almost a year, not true though. :P I’ve just been slacking in the blogging department for a few months. But I’m trying to make more time for that now. What an awesome way to start up Love Thursday again! Just today one of my all-time favorite skins was released in an updated version. Dutch Touch Amber is definitely my most favorite, it has everything I’ve always wanted in a skin. It comes in 3 delicious tones and I’m wearing the dark tone which is currently free to all Dutch Touch VIP group members. Check out the new Dutch Touch blog for all the details: http://www.dutch-touch.com

The lingerie I am wearing is the new Intima line from Glam Affair. This stylish new lingerie line consists of eight extremely sexy sets. I am wearing more of the classic style with stockings, check out the other outrageous sets on the Glam Affair flickr.

Happy Love Thursday everyone! <3

This weekend has been great for new releases, especially in hair! I’ve always found Shag hair to be incredibly sexy, I love their textures. This new updo from them has become one of my favorites. They’ve had a few hair releases this week though, so the updo is not all you’ll find. This version of the Erotica hair I am wearing below is the submissive version with an option to also cover the mouth (which I’ve replaced with the pearls).

The new Lelutka Ava skin has a very pretty face. But one thing I absolutely love about this skin is the body…especially the back. It has just the perfect amount of shading in all the right places. The skin I am wearing is the group gift that was sent out this weekend, make sure to join the group to pick it up! They also sent out some nice male hair and a bag with AO!

I blogged a preview to the Luxuria line a few days ago, just wanted to let you know the whole collection has now been released!
