“A word of kindness is seldom spoken in vain, while witty sayings are as easily lost as the pearl slipping from a broken string.”

It’s time for another installment of Berry’s Favorite Things because my favorite eyes on the whole grid are on sale, 50% off, making all the eyes L$100 each. I’m wearing Poetic Color‘s latest release, the star eyes, named after the planets. These are definitely my most favorite and I just couldn’t resist and went and bought more fatpacks! :D But you gotta hurry because the sale is only going to be for 3 days.

Also, I think it’s been a while since I shared a quote…so here you go. <3

“In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.”
Anton Ego from Ratatouille

Olive Juice is definitely one of my top five pose stores. I just love IsabellaGrace Baroque‘s creativity in not only her poses, but the props that she uses and even her vendor images. Using her poses and props is always quite the adventure because she’s got simple fashionable poses and then there are others that are just out of this world. So if you want to be a country girl, a zombie or even a secret agent man, I am positive you will find something to your liking at Olive Juice.

Happy Love Thursday everyone! <3

Prelude is one of those stores that totally suits my style. The have just the right mix of sexiness, creativity and amazing quality designs that I crave in my Second Life. I just had a blast shooting these pics!

The story behind my encounter with Prelude designer Polaire Aeghin is a rather funny one. She actually saw me walking around a store in my male form yesterday and then decided to contact me. Needless to say, I was kinda embarrassed since all I was wearing was boxers! LOL I guess it’s my fault for shopping half naked. Anyhow, I’m glad she didn’t hold that against me and still decided to share her designs, because they truly are wonderful and I love how each outfit has so many different options.

The poses are from Miamai by Mavi Beck. I found these poses to be some of the sexiest I own and they seem to fit me perfectly, I love it when that happens! :D

The shoes I am wearing in this post are the sexy Mercy heels from Orange Creations. I love the little toes on these shoes, they are so adorable and perfect. The hud is really easy to use as well.

Happy shopping everyone! <3

Ispachi is a brand that is new to me, but they have been around for about 2 years. They carry a wide selection in clothing, jewels, eyes, shapes and these gorgeous skins for both men and women.

On my male shape I am wearing their newest skin release called Trey in the lightest and darkest tones available. This skin comes in 6 skin tones and 15 facial options. There are also options for hairbase and bodyhair.

The female skin I am wearing is Megan and she is their latest female release. She comes in 6 tones and 15 makeups. I am wearing the lightest tone. I really liked the look of innocence on this skin.

Both of these skins offer a variety of different makeups as well, which include dramatic, bruised, bleeding and battered. So if you are into realistic roleplay skins, these are a good bet.

Along with the skins, they have a great variety in clothing as well which I am also wearing in this post. One really neat thing I noticed about their clothing vendors was that they looked kinda like old school print holograms. I thought it was very creative.

Please keep in mind that these pictures were taken using the Caliah Windlight settings and then they were also photoshopped. Therefore, please remember to demo using your favorite shape and windlight setting so that you are completely satisfied before your purchase. They also have great shapes in the store to go along with the skins. Demos are available for free.
