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…)

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…)

There’s a sale going on at the Creator’s Pavilion with at least one product from just about every content creator on the sim. I’m wearing a freebie shirt from =about= and 1L tartan pants from Kilin. Off the top of my head, I also saw some guy’s clothes from Sey and Arai out in the sale area.
Sale ends March 3rd, so head to creators pavilion asap. The sim map is after the cut so you can see all the other stores there. (more…)

It’s very much with mixed feelings that I share the following sale announcement.
Beginning at 9:00 a.m. SL Time on Friday, 11 January 2008, all items created by Ginny Talamasca, Katterina Dagostino and Devyn Carmichael went on final sale for L$100 each. Permissions for all items are now Modify / No Copy / Transfer. All items will be permanently retired at the conclusion of the sale, which will run for approximately one month, possibly longer if demand permits. (Details are according to entries on the Last Call website.)
Chances are you have heard about the sudden and unexpected passing in late 2007 of one of the two partners who together were Ginny Talamasca. (The formal announcement can be found here.) I don’t think it’s too great an exaggeration to use the phrase “end of an era” in attempting to describe what this means to the SL fashion world. Ginny’s designs for women (those gowns!) were beautiful and distinctive. The clothing lines for men were fascinating, striking and sometimes controversial. It seems difficult to overstate the the importance of Ginny’s contributions.
I claim no special relationship with Ginny, in fact I met him only once, when I chatted with Devyn for about an hour for an interview. What I remember most about our conversation was how passionate he was about the work, how invested in the creative process, and how much fun he was having, even in the midst of the craziness that was the Last Call grand opening. It seems appropriate here to remember, appreciate and celebrate Ginny’s amazing clothing designs. Whether or not you loved or wore all or any, you had to admire not only the items themselves but the care and passion that went into their creation. (more…)

Sometimes bad stuff happens to good people. I’ll let Dis tell you the sad tale in his own words, for maximum effect and play upon your sympathies:
“Hey there everyone…for those of you who don’t know my computer has decided that its New Year’s resolution was to kill itself. SL is my main source of income, so it’s urgent that I get a new computer in order to release new products–the laptop I’m currently on barely logs me in. Everything (skins and all) in my main store is 50% off. It’s a great chance to buy all the stuff you didn’t have the money for, seeing as this will probably be one of the few sales I have this year. All the funds are going to buying me a new computer so I can work again. The sale lasts as long as I’m on this laptop, no longer; so get your cheap merch while you can!” (more…)

So, I was trolling around on the web recently (I get bored at work sometimes, you know how that is) and came across Jesseaitui Petion’s blog, where he’s beginning to share pictures of the progress he’s making on his new skin, called “Reclaim,” currently in the works. I think it’s great when a designer is not only willing to let us in on designs in development but also interested in feedback along the way. Take a look, see what Jesse’s working on, and give him a little encouragement now and then–I think he’ll be glad to hear from you. He says he’s really taking his time, enjoying the work and loving the new skin. His current plan is to have “Reclaim” ready for release in January or February 2008. In the meantime, you can pick up his current skins, due to be discontinued at the end of November, at great sale prices: L$600 for “Premier,” L$900 for “Advance.” (more…)

Due to a massive power outage in my building I was unable to access the internet. After going through the five stages of grieving (denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance) I decided not to stare at my blank computer screen and went out to enjoy the Canada Day atmosphere and celebrations across the city. Canadians and Americans, please enjoy your festivities.
And now on to fashion. As always, if you have your ear to the ground and stumble across a really great designer please send me an IM. Please note that for the month of July I’m taking a break from this weekly column.
Casa Del Shai. A follow up to the suave elegance of last week’s Barong Tagalogs with a westernized twist in the Amorsolo and Luna suits. The traditional Filipino shirts have been paired with a suit jacket that has been embroidered/screen printed on the back panel and a crisp pair of matching slacks. The ensemble sells @ 600L and can be purchased in Deco (112, 150, 30).
Sale @ Indie. Don’t forget to check out Indie Rainbow’s stores in Louise and Sede di Marte before July 5th and take advantage of the liquidation sale on his hand drawn goodies for men and women. Once the sale is over his current collection will be retired.
VR Phlux. Another addition to the swing collection. “Harris” is a sharp tweed suit with shirt and tie, vest with pocket watch detail layer, jacket layer and belted “Hollywood” slacks. The suit sells for 300L at phlux (169, 163, 35).

Following some constructive and pointed feedback from our valued readers the format of this segment as been slightly adjusted. You are really making me work for this. But I enjoy a good challenge. Items have been arranged in categories and descriptions have been made more concise (3 to 5 short sentences each). Due to time and resource constraints designer-created images have been used in the product highlights. If there are any further comments you may have on the changes please feel free to post.
Is it any wonder that this was also a week that was rife with male fashion content? We’ve got a fairly diverse round-up with amongst the categories in addition to two sales. And of course I felt obligated to write about the quality products I saw and/or tried on.
