Vo in Cheerno

Vo Pralou

Shirtless boy week continues with these photos of the new Cheerno skins (named Wady, left, and Teseu, right), adorning Mr. Pralou here. I like how Asian his shape looks. I grew up surrounded by whip-thin Hawaiian boys on the Big Island, and my internal version of reality very often has Asian bodies being 'normal' and everything else as 'bigger-than-normal.' I mention this because I'm certain other people might find his avvie super-thin, but I'd like to raise the idea that body norms are actually cultural.

Anyway, the thick brows are definitely a Cheerno standard by now, and Vo pulls them off with a delicate nose and pouty little mouth. I admit that I zoomed way in on the nipples and stared through the objectifying lense of my SL camera… boy those are realistic lookin', complete with "I'm cold" bumps. Wonder who my shirtless boy will be tomorrow? (SLURL to Cheerno)

Winter in underpants

Winter Jefferson

I'm continuing the shirtless-man theme in my blog today with Mr. Jefferson here. He got talked out of his clothing to show off his new underpants from Zaara… I love that I asked for Winter to strip and his outfit credits are still longer than mine usually are. He also showed up with a perfect red manicure. What a vamp! Zaara's underwear are as well-made as the rest of her clothing, and I particularly like the, well, the shading, on the…you know. Bumpy parts. (SLURL to Zaara.)

I'm kind of liking this theme. Who's next? :D

Cosimo Goth skins from MiaSnow

Lucius Godard in MiaSnow

MiaSnow's new COSIMO goth skins suited my bro here better than they did me, so he won the job of modeling for me today. I dig Luc's style -- he has minimalism down to a science, including the Lennon-esque prim feet instead of shoes. MiaSnow's skins are as manly as always while yet having cool makeup. I love the wash of color around the eyes as well as the sixpack. Maybe I'll punch Luc repeatedly in the stomach to see if my fist bounces back. (SLURL to MiaSnow)

Introducing {MV}

Before anyone hollers at me, these poses are all by the super-awesome Dove Swanson of Long Awkward Pose. They can be found at the LAP booth at the pose fair, and they're the Model Boy Poses. I loves them long time. Make more already, Dove, K? K. (SLURL to Pose Fair.)

I'm waving at you sleepily from my Easter-brunch-induced coma. Instead of napping like I shoulda, I photographed clothing from {MV}, a new shop that's going to open up tomorrow at this location. I'm pretty sure that some of these items are meant for girls, but they're made by Vo Pralou and Millan Parx, so I bet they're actually just deeply metrosexual. How was your Easter, everyone? In honor of Easter, I hope to lure a certain infamous boy blogger into his skivvies, later on, to photo him for these pages. And I'll let the speculation begin… (SLURL to {MV})

iWhat?

hyasynth Tiramisu

hyasynth was so adorable in teal and purple this morning that I photographed her instead of myself. She's in her usual mashup of friends' stuff, and as always, a little bit fey and inhuman. I don't think I've ever seen hyasynth without something that shows her true faery origin...

My daughter just climbed onto my lap and stuck her cold toes on my leg, and I realized that I'd much rather be playing with her all day than getting ready for the battle… In real life, it's the launch day of a certain much-touted application, and I'll be working all day and night to make sure it is disseminated to the masses. Please let me not be trampled! Please!

Yes means yes

My brain is fried from teaching. Three hours of student speeches does that to a woman. They were all uniformly good, of course! So yes, this is the last day for the Black Bacchanalia, and I'm in the offerings from Sn@tch, demure little skirts and proper pants that are perfect for secretarial work or church on Sunday. Ok, maybe not. The hair is new from Pazazz, and looks astonishingly like my real life hair.

Blue and Purple Bacchanalia

I've enjoyed having the Black Bacchanalia on hyasynth's sim. It means that I can stand around the Rookery and run into friends without having to leave home. I've encountered all of the pretty gothy/alternative women in Second Life, and even a few men too (a rare breed in this online space!). I'm in a few more outfits from this event. Some of ~silentsparrow's~ gatcha items, her Batty babydoll, and a super-fluffy dress from Blue Blood. Beware of the evil gatcha machines!

(SLURL to ~silentsparrow~) -- once you get there, click the mushroom in the courtyard to TP upstairs to the Rookery. Oh, also, if you love the Rookery's look, go see the other things Azazeal has created at October Rust.
