My friend Itny told me to head to a store called [insert cool name] a while ago, but (as is usual) I forgot. She reminded again a few days ago, and this time I went right after she told me. I found a nice box of goodies there for 1L. Curious to see if I could find more, I checked through the group history and found a few more things. As I was busy poking around, I ran into Malte Antfarm, the owner of the store. Malte is a pretty nice guy, and we ended up talking for a bit. As I was talking to him, the topic of his next freebie came up.
I mentioned that guys tend to get plenty of shirts, but everything else is much less common. Therefore, why not make his next freebie a pair of pants? Sure enough, a day or two later, Malte dropped the shirt and pants I’m wearing here on the group. I’m pretty sure he mentioned that they’d be packaged in the box as well for when they age out of the archives. Anyway, enough back story, on to the clothes. (more…)

Designer Shinichi Mathy described himself to me as “a newcomer to the SL fahion scene.” He may have arrived relatively recently, but I hope he sticks around for a while. His shop SHIKI presents a generous collection of unabashedly colorful, breezy casual designs for men, and a handful of items for women. I’m pretty sure the shop was redesigned within the last few days–it had a completely different layout when I made a quick last-minute visit last night. Things do come and go so quickly around here.
Although I’m not featuring them here today, you’ll also find a few decidedly informal suits…perhaps just the thing for a summer garden party or evening cocktail cruise. The pieces I’m wearing here are just a small selection from Shinichi’s Spring and Summer ‘08 collections. (more…)

I never covered these because I figured they’d be gone too quickly. However, 3 weeks later these dollarbie gifts are still around so head over there before they actually do get yanked. There’s a nice red top and green pants, as shown by my friends at free*style.

I don’t care how cut up they are, they’re currently my favourite pair of jeans and I’m going to wear them. They’ve got a lot of life left in them and they’re comfortable and they’re so London. The Union Jack on the front is ok, innit? But the London Underground logo on the back pocket is well bad. And I’ve washed the things so many times that the reds and blues are just faded enough. But the best part — you ready for this? — the best part of all is I can wear ‘em with anything. ‘Cos they’re actually two jeans in one. Low risers, for sure, you’ll see them in the other photos, but these are the high risers. Both in the same folder, pick whichever suits your top. Safe. They’re handmade for you by Maruko Sakigake of WMD — how can you not love a company named Weird Monkey Design? They come in lots of colours and designs; mine are Ronin London Edition; L$199 for the two pairs. There’s also a plain blue set for the special knock-down of L$50. Go get ‘em. (more…)

The best part of being in contact with other freebie bloggers is that they remind you of items you’ve picked up and then totally forgotten. Half the stuff I’m wearing in this post have been available for a long time and been in my inventory for months, till I was reminded of them by seeing others wear them, mention them, or somehow remind me of them.
Gecko Gorilla, the new resident male freebie hunter at Free*Style, reminded me of my Amsterdam free shirt, the subscribomatic joining gift from Hoorenbeek. He wore the blue shirt so I decided I’d wear the brown shirt. I also seem to have a brown sports jacket from Hoorenbeek which I suspect came from either a sale or the subscribomatic, but I’m honestly not sure. If it was from the subscribomatic, I suspect its long been flushed from history. Either way, clicking on the sign still gets you two free shirts. Poking through the history will most definitely get you some notecards and perhaps a sports jacket. (more…)

LeeZu Baxter has started making men’s clothes; this is good news. Among the pieces at her new island, To The Nines, you’ll find this complete outfit, called JoJO. It’s a luxurious affair, with the broad pinstripes on the trousers matched by bands of stripes and ribs on the coat, including on the magnificently tall stand-up prim collar. (As usual, click on any of the photos to see a larger version.)
The long coat is formed with one of those flexiprims that attaches from the chest. If you’ve followed conversations in the comments to Express’s articles, you’ll know that some of us have trouble with getting these to fit. I approached with some caution, but LeeZu helped by offering to wear my ’shape’ and try it on. I had no problem at all with JoJO — it worked right out of the box. (more…)

Literally as well as figuratively right next door to Artilleri, designer Floatie Hock’s Hell Bop Bar and Clothing Garage in Saimaa sells retro clothes at great prices.
My favourite has to be this olive-coloured shirt. Perfect for bowling, but without any wordy or cheesecake logos, just this screaming tiki figurine (click the photo to enlarge), the 1950s olive colour and broad black stripe up the middle. Superb. It’s called Bob Olive Shirt and it comes on shirt- and jacket-layers for only L$75. (more…)

Thing is, sometimes you just want simple. Simple and comfortable. Simple and comfortable and quality. It’s the last one that’s often the difficulty. Understandably, great designers tend to tackle difficult things — complex pieces with many layers and brocades and stripes and often prim add-ons. And, yeah, we love ‘em. But sometimes, you just want simple.
So here’s a set. Alphamale is an up-and-coming shop, maybe even an up-market-and-coming-on-strong shop. Yelmer Pfeffer is the main alphamale and his partner, Mariska Simons, runs Blacklace next door. They’ve been up and running for months, but when I stopped in this week, they were going through an impressive and extensive remodelling and an expansion that included culling older pieces with which Yelmer was no longer satisfied. He was wearing some excellent blue jeans with a blue t-shirt. I turned immediately to the vendors but bought this colour instead. It’s a set they call, simply enough, Brown Jeans with Two Tees. And the contents are exactly as stated. (more…)

I’ve been having some recurring issues with my wrists of a late, so typing has become more of a pain. Therefore, I’ll let the pictures do more talking and minimally explain the relevant information. First off, I’m wearing a free sweater, scarf, and sunglasses from the Rahz II Store. There’s also a free necklace available there too. The store has a 50L sale going on where some of the items (often packs of 2 to 3 shirts) are sold for only 50L. It doesn’t apply to every item in the store though, so keep an eye on prices. The items are mod no copy so pick up a few and tint away. The hair is Sleek in “Faded Chestnut”, available for 1L from ETD. (more…)

One of the things I enjoy most about SL, and this opportunity to share some of the stuff I find there, is hearing about (or from) new or unfamiliar designers and trying on their creations for the first time. Whether they’re just getting started, or taking their design work in a new direction, there’s something actually kind of exciting about it. Namida Akami has just two items out at her new shop MUWU, but they’re her first two designs for men, and they’re fascinatingly different from each other in approach, style and execution. “The English Boy” (L$90) is a classic ensemble: navy blazer over sweater vest over white oxford shirt. It’s eminently sober and respectable, just the thing for a full day of classes or an afternoon of quiet study at the library. (more…)

Phew.. Easter is over. Should be good till the next giant holiday.. is it Mother’s Day? Anyway, back to business as normal.. or business I forgot about because I was too busy egg hunting.
Adam n Eve recently opened a new boutique a Genesis for a line of high class fancy clothes. In order to celebrate the opening, sachi Vixen decided to put up two freebies — a polka dot dress for the ladies and polka dot shirt for the guys. Now when I saw the shirt the first thing that came to mind was disco. Unfortunately, I’m a bit too young to remember disco, so I decided to inspire myself with the closest thing I do know to ridiculous dancing and outfits — A Night at the Roxbury. More specifically, my speakers were thumping Haddaway for a half hour as I put this outfit together. (more…)

Two questions for you: (1) Do you love sword & sorcery role-playing in Second Life? (2) Do you collect memorabilia from the Lord of the Rings films?
OK, yeah, me neither.
So why am I standing here in front of a map of ‘Middle Earth’ wearing clothes with names that are spelled a little like Welsh railway stations? If you have to ask, you clearly haven’t clicked the photos to enlarge them. These are beautiful beautiful clothes, detailed and rich and luxurious. I’m telling you, the role-players are better dressed than you. (more…)

Reaction has an Easter Sale going on from the 19th, until the the 23rd of March. All items will be 50L or less, so a shirt, pants, and shoes set will definitely be under my weekly limit of $150L. The Alternation crew (Reaction, Reaction Girl, and WRONG) have a long history of generous freebies. Back around Christmas time last year, they released a series of daily gift freebies. In addition, the owner of Reaction, Radical Twang, was handing out gift cards up to $1500L for relatively minimal work. The giftcards were even more useful when the Alternation crew pulled a Crazy Day sale in early February, featuring prices as low as $3L for a shirt and $8L for shoes. Needless to say, I’ve picked up quite a few Reaction items over time.
Reaction is primarily a surf shop, so expect a wide variety of board shorts. In the picture to the left, I’m wearing the Skullies boardies with a black Rashie. All of Radical’s textures are created from scratch, and his detail work shines through. He’s managed to find just the right amount of shading and wrinkling so that his clothes look neither flat nor photo-sourced. (more…)

Just so you’ll know, I do occasionally learn from my own experiences. Although I’m embarking here on an overall designer review (rather than a specific new release), I will endeavor not to make again the tactical error I made when I reviewed Gaia Goodnight’s Darkstar Designs earlier this month, namely the ill-advised decision to include umpteen different outfits and items in a single post. And don’t get it wrong–the temptation to do so again with Kavar Cleanslate’s designs at Exile was very, very strong. However, I’m confident that you are a gentle and patient people, and you’re willing to accept delayed rather than instant gratification. If not, you can just TP over to the shop and check things out for yourself. 
Kavar mentioned to me that he’s really into themed outfits and costumes right now, and I want to cover a couple of his new releases for you here. Imagine the possibilities for themed nights at your favorite club! Hmm, sometimes there are cash prizes…I’m just sayin’. (more…)

It’s been months since I showed you around hyasynth Tiramisu’s Silent Sparrow collection for men. Since then, she’s released several wonderful outfits for men and remodelled her sim and shop. I’m told by reliable sources that it’s totally amazing if you use the Windlight viewer. There’s a big reopening party planned for this weekend.
The most fabulous of the new releases is a new steampunk era suit called Sprocket. It comes in 6 flavours; I chose ‘dusk,’ the purple one (but couldn’t resist some extra colours, as you’ll see). The folder contained a jacket garment with prim jacket tails for men and for women, two pairs of trousers, two shirts (on the undershirt layer) with dusk-coloured ties/cravats painted on, and a dusk-coloured waistcoat/vest (on the shirt layer).

Sometimes guys just want to have fun. I know, I know, in the song Cyndi’s talking about girls, but fortunately Jeanni Nishi knows the real truth: it’s guys, too. (You know the song, of course. If not–first, shame on you, and second, you’ll never win on Jeopardy if the Daily Double is in Eighties Pop.) Jeanni is just starting to roll out designs at her new shop Sweeet!!, but she already has some fun stuff for the guys, and the girls haven’t been forgotten either.
Here I’m wearing the Seersucker Shirt (L$100) in Brown, but you’ll find it in a variety of other colors as well. I’m layering with the Tartan Vest (L$100) in Red, because as you know I’ve got something of an affinity for the family of warmer tones, but you have plenty of other color choices. Hey, it’s a guilty pleasure, but I’ve decided not to give it up for Lent. (more…)

To start off, I figured I’d do a two-parter post where I go back to the basics. When I first jumped into this virtual world, I followed a few online guides to help me “get started.” Two stores always came up as the places to go: Free Dove and GNUbie. These two places are are pretty solid start. I’ll focus on some of my favorites at Free Dove in this post, and follow up on my favorites at the GNUbie store in the next one.
Free Dove is organized as a bunch of tables with signs on them. The store is pretty self explanatory and everything is free — zero lindens. “Men’s Clothing” and “Men’s Shoes” are both to the left of the teleport spot. As a word of warning, Free Dove, unfortunately, is for “humans” only so if you’re trying to be a stylish anthro make sure you throw on a normal skin before you go there. (more…)

Since one round of Valentine’s Day-appropriate ideas seems hardly sufficient, I thought I’d share a few more suggestions with you. Here’s hoping that one or more of these designs will fit into your romantic plans. And remember–sometimes, something you buy for yourself is also a gift for some else…if you do it right.
Keth Mommsen’s “James After Hours” (L$150) is part of the “Signature Line” at Eros Designs. It seems to be conceived and presented primarily as an add-on to the James Tuxedo (L$500), but it also stands on its own as great, inexpensive “after-party” formal attire. (more…)

Whenever I heard the word “romantic” I am immediately reminded of a scene in the movie “Moonstruck.” You know the scene—where Raymond Capomaggi, still madly in love with his wife Rita after many years together and apparently all but undone by the lovers’ moon that seems to be influencing everyone in sight, sings aloud a snippet of Rogers and Hart’s “Isn’t It Romantic?” Apparently, he was a tiger last night.
One thing we can take away from this delightful moment is that romance is not the exclusive province of the young and beautiful—anyone can be romantic. Maybe this is a bit of a stretch, but I think this also suggests that dressing romantically doesn’t just mean lipstick-kissed boxer briefs (not that there’s anything wrong with that)—it can be anything that represents an effort to connect to your significant other and make something special happen for both of you.

I am unsure how he found me? But, clothing designer SerJordan Bonetto and owner of Men’s and Women’s clothing store Emery, contacted me this week about the possibility of writing an article for the blog. Being a polite person and always looking for the hot new item, I quickly finished what I was doing and rezzed. I was immediately blown away by the fantastic sense of style his men’s department exhibits. The best RL comparison to make would be a merger of the Gap and Urban Outfitters. The eclectic mix of merchandise ranges from the funky and nostalgic to the fashion essentials Du Jour. If you need to put together a hip and unique wardrobe for a low price Emery should be in your bag of tricks.
I asked SerJordan to define Emery’s image. “If i had to choose an image, I think I would get Debbie Harry, Morrissey, Nicole Richie, Pete Wentz, and Jared Leto and take a picture of them all together after one long night…” (more…)

Are you a lookr? That’s the slogan Lookr is advertised with. If you think yes is the right answer, then you should definitely teleport by the store sometime.
Lookr sells both men’s and women’s outfits, but most noticeably also makes custom branded items. These items are paid once, by the brandowner, and then handed away for free to the citizens of Second Life.
When it comes to the unbranded stock, Lookr doesn’t have a huge assortment yet. There is some choice already though. Currently available in the men’s corner of the store are sweaters, jeans, tee shirts and hoodies.

The first thing I want you to know is that I have manfully resisted the temptation to shout, “Extra, extra, read all about it!” Except now I’ve gone and said it anyway. My apologies; apparently you’re just going to have to live with me. The second thing I want you to know is that I can’t begin to imagine where Shai gets her ideas and inspirations for her new clothing designs. In this case, one hopes it wasn’t from repeated rentals of “Newsies,” and if it was, one hopes further that this is because she’s got a thing for musicals, or Christian Bale, or whatever, and not because of its status as a modern classic, because it’s…kind of not. (Flawed as it is, I think “Swing Kids” is arguably somewhat better. Yes, I see a lot of crap movies.) Shai’s new Newsboy Outfits defy easy categorization and immediate understanding of the Why behind the What. This in no way keeps them from being a lot of fun. (more…)
