Second Life's #1 Fashion and Gossip Rag
I do hate to sound like a broken record, but with favorite sims you must love (violently, flagrantly, er, abundantly) them while you still have them. I was feeling somewhat melancholy after chatting with one of my dearest friends in SL about the seemingly permanent death of Nexus Prime. Although Nexus and Suffugium are gone, [...]
Opium smoking has that amusing 19th century junkie chic feeling about it. Its so much worse than absinthe, and way more sexy, apart from the embarrassing side effects. Second Life has a fine tradition of letting people be tourists–lifestyle tourists, ethnic tourists, you name it. So I decided to spend some time being an elegant [...]
One of my very favorite things about Second Life, is the heightened sense of transience and intensity in all our everyday interactions here. There is a wonderful dream-like quality in the hyper-beautiful avatars that roam imaginative landscapes, meeting strangers and yet managing to connect mentally so deeply, sometimes only in the medium of text. These [...]

Beautiful store sims are awesome. I especially love the ones that make you forget that you are there to buy something, and compel you to wander around for an hour or more just sightseeing. World’s End Garden is one of those sims. It is deceptively bare-looking, but after the wild excesses of some places, at [...]

Don’t you stop loving me daddy, I know I’m keeping my Tedi.
It’s my most favorite time of the year! If you don’t know a thing about Dia de los Muertos or sugar skulls or la Catrina, then please kindly have a look at the links provided by my librarianish self. Yes, I am a librarian in real life, quite terrifying no? I am overly enthusiastic today, and there are plenty of cool new (and old) Day of the Dead Second Life themed things this year. And i want to share them with you.
Hello, my name is Juana Manuel, and I am a total Second Life fashion addict, a former writer for Second Style Magazine and Atomic Valley, and an insatiable fashion tourist. One of my very favorite things about Second Life is that you can accessorize yourself to fit your surroundings or make funny situations out of being dressed wrongly for a given place. Through the good offices of Lourdes Denimore, Kesseret Steeplechase, and all the fabulous people here at Shopping Cart Disco, I have been given the chance to share my journeys with you. Please join me Fridays at 3 for a new fresh half-baked adventure with me and my friends.
I thought I’d take a break from the usual Wednesday Fashion posts to showcase one of the coolest shopping areas in Second Life. It’s called Albero. I first discovered Albero during this summer’s Gacha festival. I saw some similar trees to these off in the distance and asked myself “Well what is that?” So I [...]

“Horst is the one with the all the S&M fetishes, and the fondness for angora sweaters.” calls Allegory Malaprop in a song-song voice, struggling to climb onto the oversized table and chairs. I didn’t ask who they belonged, but I’m sure the owner of said chairs would also own the leopard print bra on my [...]
