Shades of Gray


Shades of Gray. 

Photo taken at Nitroglobus Gallery; standing in front of surrealistic art works by Mistero Hifeng. Until half February you can visit the exhibition Hidden Faces by Mistero Hifeng and Nitro Fireguard at Nitroglobus.

When shopping last Friday nite at Maitreya I met Polly, who has a gorgeous avi and moreover is a kind and friendly person. We talked for quite some time and she didn't hesitate to tell me where she had bought this gorgeous mesh open cardigan Carla in beige, which looks so soft and comfy. Love at first sight; I had to have it and rushed over to Blueberry to buy it.

The lovely Amourous fallen Gray necklace I am wearing is a Bday gift of my dear friend Mina. I love it, thanks so much Mina!  

Another new item is the Loose Denim short by GizzA. I saw this in a recent blog post of Neva Crystall. Great textures, details and colors! 


At Collabor 88 I bought this really gorgeous D!va hair Kalli in Citrine. 
Hey this looks soo real; luvvv this flex hair!

Leather mesh skirt Frensa in black, which I also bought at Blueberry

Haven't takenAria off for the last days lol!

Moreover I am wearing Vanya one of this weeks cool Truth hairstyles. Mmm, yeah I know I am late blogging it. Reason: soo busy in Nitroglobus gallery with changing exhibitions.

Edith in Splash dress


NEW dress and hair and last chance to take a photo surrounded by the 'Pieces of Cica' installation at Nitroglobus. I will miss it tomorrow, coz then Cica will take away all and we will change on Monday and Tuesday. However, the next installation/exhibition will be super cool too! 

Wearing:
SYSY's mesh Splashdress in steelgreen. I love this dress, for a change size S fits me purrrrfect and lol it makes me feel so slim ^^
Nah, joking it's a lovely dress and available in many cool colors. 

The other new item is one of this weeks new Truth hairs called Edith, which comes with a tintable hat. Super cool mesh hair!

The skin I am wearing is not new; it's the Tuli Eva skin. Tuli hasn't been active in SL for the past year (maybe longer), which is a pitty coz she made super skins.
Oh and the little guy in the back is ARnnO, a photographer friend. We wanted to take some shots of the Cica installation before it's gone and put on his party outfit ;-)

The day after the party

Cica (right) with Quan

Yesterday (4th January) we (= Nitroglobus Gallery) organized a black & white party for Cica Ghost.
It was an enormous success, i.e. many came, others couldn't get in coz the sim was overloaded most of the time :-(, but hey cannot have it all not even in SL.

Soo many photos were made by those (photographers) present, really awesome. Wanna see more? Visit Nitroglobus Gallery on Flickr or watch Nitro's  video of the B/W party:


Cica her installation 'Pieces of Cica' will be in place at Nitroglobus Gallery for another week. We intend to change around 15th January.

Tomboy Dido


Elikatira (e) mesh hair Sound in Firey Red -  NEW super cool hair, I luv this style muchos!

As Nitro was not around I stole his awesome Kal Rau casual mesh blazer with hoodie. He won't mind coz he will smell my perfume, which he loves, when he wears ^^
Only problem is that my tits are gone when wearing this male jacket ... lol I'm a tomboy.



I might ask the designer to make one for girls too, coz I know there are more girls interested. For instance my friend Kooky bought the jacket (see her blog post on this topic). It's really good quality, super nicely made, great textures and details AND the hud gives you many hoodie colors. 
BUT hey there already are so many great female clothes and them boys they have soo little, so why am I complaining.

Btw the scrts Leo mesh jeans and the H.O.D. necklace both come from my closet.

Wish you all a super weekend!

Dead Dollz

The other day I greeted Kiddo Oh, who visited our gallery. She wasn't in a talkative mood, being very busy it seemed. Besides welcoming, I complimented her on her outfit coz I really liked the long lace dress she was wearing. 
I was surprised, however, when I received a notecard from her that evening in which she explained why she hadn't been talkative; she had visited the gallery looking for inspiration for an advertising photo for the dress she was wearing, which is a new release AND that she was sending me the dress as a gift! Arghhh, wow super kind of her!

Of course I visited her shop Dead Dollz, where I acquired also another outfit ^^, AND I decided to blog this awesome mesh lace dress Black Beauty.
Here's your taxi to Dead Dollz. 

Pose used comes from PoStyle. They have nice poses for mesh outfits, worth a visit: here's your taxi


All the rest comes from my overweighted closet (sighs):
Hair & Pony (separate items): LeLutka JASMINE in Almost Goth
Necklace & bracelets: Mandala pearl rain in maple black
Facial Tattoo: KOOQLA Winterbloom black
Body Tattoo: S*E (Sparkly Ephelant) Part-Che - Wildflowers

Ronda's Mushrooms



At the start of this year I'd like to give attention to a place worth exploring: Ronda's Mushrooms as I call it, although the correct name of the landmark I received is 'Eyelands' 
Designer is Ronda Saunders, a friend and very talented lady. 

Nitro and I went exploring the other day and we truly loved it! Sooo we invited Ron to exhibit at our gallery in the near future. Keep you posted ^^
Curious? Here's your taxi to Eyelands

Chillie



Wow, my dear friend Kooky (see her blog Kooky's Clobber) gave me a link to this shop called Chillie, where they sell a 'SMARTMESH' leather jacket. Yep smartmesh meaning you receive only ONE mesh jacket, which fits all! Sooo cool. 
For now Chillie offers only the Rider leather jacket in many colors, but more items coming. Showing the pink jacket, which you receive after joining the Chillie group (free joining). There is a hud included in the folder that gives you the opportunity to change: the texture of the leather, the color of lining, zipper and brand. 

This is promissing, I luv this smartmesh which gives you the opportunity to use your own measurements instead of having to fit into standard sizing and having to change your shape over and over again.  
Here's your taxi to Chillie.

Furthermore wearing and also NEW is the lovely Truth Group Gift 'Happy 2013'. Cool hair; a great start of another Truth year.

The Maitreya bodysuit de la Ruche in black, the mesh Sn@tch velvet skirt in wine, the PiNK CHERRY disco earrings in pink and the Blowpop seamed fishnet torn tights come from my closet.

Coz I couldn't decide which photo to use, I placed them both ^^
