I was told the hardest thing to do when you’re a guest style consultant was to write a few words on the outfit. They probably had never met someone like me before, with a cazillion outfits and different looks in my inventory, by far the hardest was finding just one that shouted out here is jamie Cheeky, mainly because I morph alot on style.
The skin part is easy. After 2.5 years of running about SL in a old Naughty skin I decided to go for a new look. Zanzo Seraphim – Raphael (freckly) was perfect. I’m not a 6 pack lover or a gorilla chest freak and Zanzo fitted the bill. I got the freckles just because I thought they were cute and added a youthful spirit to the look. $L 1200 at Zanzo. (more…)

To begin with, in second life, I’m a DJ and manager at The Wharf. I host events for other Djs, as well. If you’ve never been to the Wharf, you are missing out on a fantastic place. Chester Howley and Finnegan Chesnokov are the dynamic duo that own the place, and have made it into the awesome place it is today. I love to talk to and meet people. And I love to share my music – hence the DJ thing.
You could say that I spend a great deal of time in and around music on SL. I enjoy exploring various places, whether its a music club, seeing interesting builds, or going shopping and doing things with my friends. I have met some fantastic people, and have grown very close to a few. (more…)

Nobody does vintage fashions quite like Antonia Marat. I think her feel for and expression of the carhop era are second to none. My only complaint is that she doesn’t spend all of her time designing for men. You ladies are lucky.
But I will gladly take home any if not all of Antonia’s menswear and be happy. Her new tanks for men (L$130 each) come in three styles: Skull Artilleri, Lucky Number 7, and 8Ball Flaming Skull. The ribbed fabric, double-stitched hems and wrinkle shading are realistic without calling attention to themselves, so the graphic designs can really shine. Oh, and it certainly doesn’t hurt that subtle pec definition reinforces your masculinity for the poodle-skirt crowd. These tanks come on jacket, shirt and undershirt layers and include an underwear-layer extension for tucking into low-rise jeans. Add one of Antonia’s jackets if extra toughness is called for.

A few days ago I got myself a freebie Benz from Akeyo, probably the best free car in SL at the moment. A couple hours later I get an IM asking if I was interested in covering her clothing line. I ported in to check out the store and after looking at the items there, of course I was.
The store offers a variety of clothing and accessories, mostly using sculpties for the prim parts. She sticks to using sharp and bright textures and offers her stuff for reasonable (though not excessively cheap) prices.
The items I’m covering in this review are the shoes, hoodies and caps. The shoes and caps are both offered in 2 lines currently. For the shoes that’s slippers and sneakers, for the caps that’s jeep caps and baseball caps.
