Sleepless in SL

I received a set of wonderful skins from +Aii+ today. The skin line is called Sleepless and ironically, they arrived in my mailbox at 3:05 a.m. I was having one of those nights and wandering SL in hopes of finding entertainment till Morpheus could overtake me.

With names like Frail, Sick, Tainted, Withered and Dead, you can see that the skins are for those special occasions when you are in need of some special care. Each comes with a no brow, dark and white brow standard skins as well as TMP and Omega appliers for both bodies and heads.

I'm wearing Weary, which is the darkest tone, and exactly how I was feeling. There's nothing like playing with new skins till the sun comes up to help you forget those pesky worries that are hissing in your ears and keeping you awake!

From Fantasy to Outer Space

Fantasy Collective (March 22 ~ April 15)
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/The%20Fantasy%20Collective/133/175/27

I was online when the notice went out that group members could visit the Fantasy Collective a few hours before the official opening.
The wee hours of the morning found a number of us rushing around admiring the offerings for this round.
The designers have answered the call of spring and there all lots of unique clothing and accessories in spring colors and themes.
Hair ~  Rezology Pulled Back Perfection
Dress ~ Jinx Amelia Spring
Jewelry ~ Earthstones Ariel in Sugilite
Boots ~ Gaall from the Rodeo set


Lost and Found (Opened March 22)

This round held more interest for me than the late winter one. It's a fun place to wander around.
Clothing and furnishings all have a retro accent. Each little store offers only a few items with about an equal number of gachas and direct sale items.

Hair ~ Wasabi Pills Fay Crystal Pink
Dress ~ Doll House 50's Vintage Dress Cynthia
Shoes ~ Alyce Seductive Heels


Sci-Fi Conference (March 18-27)
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Nimoy/70/123/1002
This RFL event covers several sims.  There are donation kiosks and special sale items with the proceeds going to the Cancer Society.  There are rides, entertainment, stores and event-wide hunt with some cool gifts and some really nice freebees for Sci-fi fans, but most of the builds are designed to entice those who are already active fans to join a particular RP group. If you like sci-fi, you might just find some kindred spirits to conquer the galaxy with.

Skin ~ Plastik Astrali Skin Plute

+Aii's Oracle

Oracles live lives of solitude and often of anguish because of their ability to foretell the future. 

She clings to her talisman and counts on the protection of the words and sigils flying about her to protect her even when the vision has brought her to her knees.

I combined the Opalite Oracle Robe and accessories from +Aii+ with a couple of sacred talismans also from +Aii+ to create a tribute to those ancient and modern women who live apart and tell the truth.


+Aii+ ~ Cloak, chains, and floating lights
+Aii+ ~ Sacred Talismans in hand and surrounding me in the air

Head ~ Genesis Makena 2.0 Albino
Body ~ TMP free body, hands and feet available @ the Shops
Hair ~ Red Mint Hair N0,15'13
Collar ~ Curious Silver and Diamond collar

+Aii+ @ Skin Fair (March 11-27)

March 11-27 http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Bikini%20Bottom/92/113/22

+Aii+ has released a few mesh heads in the past including the Arachne ones I blogged back on October 2, but these are different. The single head can be used as an everyday head and then there's the triple head...

Each head comes as a blank white mesh which must have skin texture applied using the Omega hud, which is available either in the +Aii store or on MP.  This was my first attempt at applying a skin to a head, but the process was very simple and I love the result.

There is a textured spot on the forehead to apply a third eye and +Aii has third eyes available for purchase in the store. I opted for the more elaborate Jewel Demon Eye.
