With the ground breaking change of being able to copy to text what we are wearing, it’s more important than ever that what you the creator name your product be intuitive.
It’s hard enough with a big inventory to find things. But that’s my problem not yours.
However, if your shop name is SUSIE’S HOT SHOP but your individual items have a name let’s say HOTCHA, and then inside of the folder of that item is shirt, pant, whatever….it’ll look like THIS when I copy paste it.
HOTCHA pant
Now. I’m a pretty attentive blogger, I just play at being scattered. Chances are good I’m going to change that so that it says Susie’s Hot Shop – HOTCHA + color etc.
But catch me on a bad day, and honestly, HOTCHA pant might just be what goes into my shopping list recap at the end of the post. Now people are searching for a store named HOTCHA. And that’s a waste of my time and you aren’t getting any sales out of it.
Instead, despite the fact that it’s a huge pain in your ass, it’s important that you help out not only bloggers but HELL your customers in general. Name your items consistently and name each and every item with your store name and the item name, THEN the individual piece designation.
Like THIS: Susie’s Hot Shop – Hotcha – Pant Blue
Abbreviating is fine, but do it consistently. don’t be SHS one time, Susie’s HS the next and so on.

Frankly, it doesn’t matter how you do it or in what order. It simply matters that you include
STORE NAME + ITEM NAME + INDIVIDUAL PIECE NAME/DESCRIP + Color
And, please name your alpha layers as well. You don’t know HOW many times I’ve been trying to figure out WTF is wrong because I’ve got the name of the item in my inventory search – and ONE PIECE didn’t have the name. That’s counter-intuitive.
This has been an IOF PSA. Now. Do it.

Ivalde has released a beautiful vintage dress at the Fashionably Late event that makes me feel like Jackie Kennedy. It’s a quickie today because it’s Sunday and I have the busy but I had to show you this beautiful dress that is sure to make vintage style lovers drool.

I have a good friend who’s mother is a bit of a nut. A loveable, quirky, 3D force of nature nut. Example, when we were in school, the soap dispenser in the bathroom of their house was a cock and balls. You had to squeeze the balls to get the soap to come out of the tip.
Yes, she was single. Continue reading

We all tend to be kind of possessive of our shapes. They are US after all. But sometimes, even when you’re an old wizened, shriveled up avatar (no not the one you think, I mean ME) it’s good to stretch your skin across a different look.
I’ve decided that like posers, shapers are the bastard children in the land of creators. No one credits them. Well, I do. But it’s because I’m a poser so I feel their pain. Continue reading

My friend Jori Watler was in a bit of a snit the other day (which is a whole other topic and best left out) and anyway, I’m the sort of friend who firmly believes that if you are in a snit, there is surely something horrible on Marketplace I could send you to cure you of this malady.

Ponies, pigtails and braids, oh my! Hair Fair is rich in tails and braids and there are some really great choices. A few let you customize them with color-change huds or scripts to alter the color of the pony fastener or the streaks in your hair. There are full-size pictures in the Flickr slideshow here. I shot these styles in a gorgeous dress from Vanitas Vesture that has such a great skirt, I decided to make a little video to show you how it moves in the newly released Model XXX AO from Behavior Body.

I think she’s doing a bang up job of creating fun and interesting images but still showcasing what she’s wearing, which is really sort of the point.
Well done! IT’S FABULOUS!
Hello!
Here are the hairstyles I (me, the picky one!) liked the most at the HF, the ones that made me go “wow!”, the ones that met my crazy taste. And yeah, something else made me go “wow!”, it’s the latest release from LAQ, a beautiful freckly skin that I’m wearing in the following pictures.

(R E D) M I N T: Hair No.11
Wild. With hud for the colour of the feathers.

(fashionably dead): Flying Fortress
Join the adventure! 😛
And keep reading, if you want to see some more awesomeness.

What are furbelows anyway? I googled and found out they are pleats or ruffles used to embellish your clothing – so good enough. This is collection of Hair Fair styles that are more casual and incorporate hats, headbands, ribbons, flowers or even butterflies. Any additional adornment or embellishment. There are 29 styles and you can see the full size pictures in this Flickr set.
Looking for a more casual outfit to show off these hairstyles, I pulled out these WoE Gauge 2 Jeans with the strawberry patch. The top is a shortie from Moonshine and the belt is from Coco.
