Ispachi Gabriel Preview

carthalis — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 22:11:48 +0000

You all know how much I love the Trey line of skins from Ispachi. It’s one of the few skins I wear and adore. Since Berry’s original post where I saw them, I bought the entire pale line of skins and loved wearing them.

It’s a privilege to preview this new line of skins from Ispachi called ‘Gabriel’ that will go on sale from Monday 6th September. There’s a number of things I love about the Ispachi line of skins; the attention to detail on the skin from veins on the arms to the stomach, the body hair options are not over the top and one of the biggest reasons I like the skins is for their slightly maturer look. It’s not obvious at first glance, but there are little details you notice that I love. And all of this is carried on and expanded into the new Gabriel line.

There a total of 8 skin tones to pick from and they are all just gorgeous. I can see myself buying quite a few of the skin tone packs.

Below is a selection from the Gabriel Pale range of skin tones. Just gorgeous.

Calling No. 07

It’s always great coming across new places that you’ve never visited before and see clothes that you love. Of course it’s then fatal because I end up buying loads of items. Visiting No.07 a couple of days ago I ended up doing that very thing, but it was fun and I went back today to take some photographs to share with you. All clothes are available from No. 07 except the shoes and bracelet of course.

Project Donate

carthalis — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 19:03:45 +0000

Project Donate is an idea conceived by Truth Hawks as way for the Second Life community to help make a difference in the lives of people in need. This first event starting today is to help raise money for the UNICEF Pakistan Flood Crisis Fund.

We’ve all seen it on the news, the floods and the devastation this has caused to the people living in Pakistan. Project Donate is helping to raise money for the UNICEF Fund and many designers have come together in Second Life to help in this cause. There are hundreds of items to pick from ranging from skins to hair, clothes to furniture and some gorgeous prefabs.

The event runs from September 4th to September 19th.

Hair Fair 2010

carthalis — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 22:20:50 +0000

Bare with me as there’s two events going on this weekend that I believe you should stop by and support if you can. The first one kicks off tomorrow and is the annual Hair Fair in support of ‘Wigs for Kids’. Money raised from the event will be donated to this very worth cause.

This year there is some fantastic male hair to take a look at, pick demo’s up and buy if you like them. I was like a kid in a sweetshop purchasing hair, and I know I’ve missed some stores so this is just a small selection that will be available from Saturday 4th September and will run till the 19th September.

No.07

While were on the subject of hair I just want to mention this new release from no.07, this one you can pick up now from his store. The hair uses the tattoo layers and its something I’ve been waiting for. Really great and well worth buying.

Call of the Wild

carthalis — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 12:13:39 +0000

This fantastic new skin from Fallen Gods is part of a new set that comes in various colour themes. Skins like this I just adore, as it really does allow you to be something completely different from what you would normally wear or look like. Lots of choice if you head over to Fallen Gods and it was a difficult task just picking out this one skin, but I did buy another skin from another new set that I’ll show later on.

Hair: Wasabi Pills Werewolf Hair

As soon as I saw this hat at Intrigue Co I just had to get it and they have some really cool and crazy hats there. The strawberry seats I’d had for quite some time, so with the hat and the seats it all pretty much came together.

Play It Again

I love these trainers from Akeyo. Originally picked them up at the Shoe Fair, but are available to buy in the store. You can either pick the colours you want from the hud or as I like to do select ‘disco mode’ and then watch the colours change on a random basis. You can select the frequency on which the shoes change colour by either speeding it up or slowing it down and even freezing it if there’s a selection you like. Great fun.

Skin: Ispachi Trey Hair/Pale/Chin Curtain/B.Hair
Hair: MADesigns Black Skunk II
Hoodie: Intrigue Co. Piano Hoodie
Cargo Pants: Saikin Cargo Pants Beige
Trainers: Akeyo Supercobra

Let’s Fly

carthalis — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 00:30:25 +0000

Two fantastic new items to share with you all.

The first is a new tattoo called ‘Let’s Fly’ from Hunain Bellic at Huz Tat’s. It’s a great looking tattoo. You will need the 2.1 viewer to use the tattoo as it comes with tinting options where you can pick any colour you want for the tattoo.

The second item is a necklace from Mandala and I just adore the jewellery from there. Lovely details and they just look gorgeous.

Tattoo: Huz Tat’s ‘Lets Fly’ *
Necklace: Mandala Takayama
