Meditations in Midnight.
Breathe, chill, relax, switch to decaf…(ignore that last one O_x)…
Even in Second Life, a body can get a little stressed out. Between lag, hardware issues, script bugs, animation quirks, and other grid gremlins, even a saint could get a complex. Hence the above reminder. Much like RL, I find myself needing the occasional prompt (ok—a large thermonuclear device detonated on my head) to focus on what’s really important.
What does this little jaunt through the slightly sleep deprived corriders of my pixelated brain have to do with fashion, one might inquire. Just this…when I take the time to make myself comfortable in SL, like RL, I find myself encouraged to relax. It’s odd I realize but somehow it works. All right, I admit, I’m probably the only av that changes into pjs before returning my consciousness to RL (yeah Ryan, I’m nucking futz but you knew that already) but it is part of my personality. So there. XP (more…)

Most of the time, the designs I review here are things I’ve found myself inworld, or read about in an announcement somewhere, or had brought to my attention by the designer him- or herself. This is one of the relatively few times a blog reader has come to me and said, “Hey, have you heard about this? Do you think you might be reviewing it?” I’m happy to get inquiries or suggestions from readers, although I can’t promise that every one will result in a review. This time, though, it did.
Rockwell Maltz’s new EOS (“Evolution of Sex”) Suit isn’t just a good-looking, classically styled suit–it has been designed with with a constant eye toward flexibility of wear. With its generous variety of wear options, this suit will take you from the boardroom to the bedroom without breaking a sweat, or even breathing hard. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist. It’s a sickness.)

Like the song says… “Working for the weekend…”
This outfit, which I’m calling The Weekender, is simply something I’d throw on without really worrying about **gasp!** having to look good. Although, the finished result shows anything but. Okay, I admit it. I’m guilty of the crime of being vain…XD
It’s one of those types of getups where the usual Jeans + Tee can be redone with a twist. More than the usual casual sets that one finds in either RL or SL, part of the look depends on what one makes of it. This look wouldn’t be out of place at a club or just cruising along doing nothing. (more…)

Someone once said that clothes make the man…
My name is MaxmillianDArgent Ferraris. My occupation, newest connoisseur of Second Life Fashion. My passion, putting it together and making it real…so to speak. My objective is to put together a wardrobe any av would be proud of. Professional, casual, romantic, urban, cyber, goth…whatever theme draws my attention…if I like it, I’ll get it and show it off. In each post, I’ll be including accessories, hair, and the occasional props with each outfit. I’ll also be listing the designers, stores, and prices for everything I’m wearing. Gotta do that publicity thing! X D
Each outfit can be either a mix/match of things from different designers or a set from a single artist. Depends on my mood naturally… (more…)

If you’re familiar with designer Rockwell Maltz’s line of skins at Made Men, you may already be saying, “Hey! That’s not exactly new.” You would be correct–these skins were released just before my vacation at the beginning of May, and then there were all these other things to cover, and Rockwell completely redesigned his shop…you see how things go. These new skins are still the most recent addition to his line, and they’re impressive enough that I wanted to be sure to cover them here. Rockwell calls them ”Young Gotti,” and they are indeed skins for a young man–smooth, muscular and well defined. They’re for the man who likes to go out, who knows where to find a good time, who knows what he wants out of life, who always has the most beautiful escort on his arm. They could be for you. (more…)
