This weekend sees the second SL Sci-Fi convention held in world over 4 sims. It looks as though it’ll be a great event, and there’s representation from all kinds of Sci-Fi genres..including Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Dr Who and lots more..I love events of this kind, it gives me the opportunity to dress the part, but also you can’t help being carried away by the enthusiasm for all things geeky at these events. I have embraced my inner geek and happily acknowledge the fact that if you cut me, I probably bleed in a slightly Vulcan manner:) The next few photos will all come from various locations at the event!

Atomic cheer-me-up time…
So I’m still reeling from my massive inventory loss, and also the fact that Linden Lab Support haven’t yet had the common decency to get in touch with me…but more on that later.
A notecard dropped in my inventory earlier from ATOMIC, announcing new releases, and here we have them. This aubergine ‘Swooped Sweater Dress’ and these rather lovely tied ‘Ribbon Leggings’ are new releases in store, and of course come in an array of colours for your mix and match happy. Sweater dresses are ten a penny in-world ( not that I’m complaining, I love them) but what makes this one above average is the fact that the swooped-cowl neckline is resizeable for a perfect fit. I really like that, it’s just an extra from the designer to make you happier with your purchase and shows real thought..same for the leggings actually, they have the same resizer scripts built into the ribbon embellishment. Something else that really impresses me is there’s no lumpy prim hanging around my fanny area and spoiling the line of the dress, it fits *beautifully*. I’ve finished the look off with my UBU trainers ( thank god they didn’t walk from my inventory) and Magika hair in ‘Sinner’, which is probably my favourite bobbed style of 2009…and I do like a good bob..ho ho! My sad lil chops are smiling again because I got me some Atomic happy..I suggest that you do the same. Oh, and if you join the group(costs L$250 but well worth it) you get a special edition of this dress and leggings too..which is nice:)
Swooped Sweater Dress: L$150 ( Bloody bargain)
Ribbon Tied Leggings: L$100
So there I was…dancing with the ‘Tainted Boys’
I was mooching around the metaverse, feeling very sorry for myself, when I happened across an art gallery in Second Life. It gave away a free HUD that when clicked takes you to different galleries in world, so I spent a happy hour wandering the grid and being very cultured. But best of all, I found a gallery adjacent to this club, called ‘Tainted Boys’, and I’m having an amazing time dancing with the beautiful fellas and enjoying the fantastic dance music provided by uber DJ Adonis Lubitsch..what a corking find. It’s put a huge grin on my face:) I’ve rarely heard such good mixing nor seen a club so full mid-week. It’s a credit ti the place, and I also really like teh fact that they have dances available for wheelchair users..littl;e things like that make a difference if you ask me. I’ll certainly be visiting again!

Arm warmers ahoy!
I’m really becoming rather keen on ‘Concrete Flowers’, which is a fabulous, somewhat eclectic wee store that sells a wonderful array of clothing and oddments. It tends toward urban/grunge styling, but is not as in your face as other outlets which means you can mix and match their wares rather well with more mainstream brands.
I took a wander down there yesterday and was delighted by these amazing armwarmers that they sell in a great range of colours. Aren’t they neat? They look so warm and chunky and I could so imagine having these in real life..in fact, I yearn for some. I love the dangly bits on them too..they’re just such a great addition to any outfit and look extremely realistic. I’m also wearing a dollarbie that’s currently available in stoire too- this wee four leaf clover in a bottle is very sweet ( look-it has a ladybird on it!) and is designed to give you lots of luck..it’s well worth a linden. I hope it works, my inventory drama is still going on with no updates thus far. My inventory is determined that it only has 13, 333 items in it, which is all well and good, but it should have LOTS more than that and it’s all my good stuff that’s gone missing:(
