Airedine Poe mentioned she created limited edition skins for the I <3 Originals fair going on and she was super kind enough to drop a sample on me. I was excited to see her work and here’s what she said in the notecard:
Offering a bunch of different makeups in two different cleavage options. The face is entirely my own, from scratch, the body is slightly-modded Eloh base (and the cleavage is entirely mine)
I’ll work on making the body entirely from scratch next time, but for now I’m too excited about making new makeups to do it right now 
Other skintones are in the works but for the AV fair only the Milk tones will be available. Keep an eye out for more!
My first thought is to get naked and get the skin on.
The skin I am wearing in this picture is Lily Milk Love Me C (the C stands for CLEAVAGE).
Here are the faces to the skins. The upper face is Lily Milk Love Me and the lower is Lily Milk Romantic. I am a big nose person. I have to have my nose look a certain way. I need my nostrils to show. (yes weird, but ya’ll knew that) This skin doesn’t make them overtly obvious but it does give the nose a shape that I find cute and buttony.
The eye makeup is very dramatic and accentuates my eyes beautifully. On the inside corner of the eye there is a bit of shininess that reminds me of a bit of makeup there to bring light into the eyes and enhance them and I love that little touch.
You get 2 options for the Sisters. They come in cleavage or no cleavage. Here’s a picture of both.
The top is cleavage, obviously. The bottom is no cleavage. Airedine’s cleavage is really nice. This is my first cleavage ever and I like it. It makes the Sisters look very perky and voluptuous despite the ‘bouancy’ is tuned to 58.
I think these are a great and I look forward to seeing more beautiful work from Airedine and her store Adore&Abhor.
To obtain these beautiful skins come visit Airedine Poe’s stall at the I <3 Originals fair.
Here is a direct SLURL to Adore&Abhor at the fair.
The I <3 Orignals Fair goes from from Feb 8th through the 14th.

I own 2 pairs of knee high boots in the 3 years I’ve been in SL. One is prim and I never wear them because the calf part looks chunky and the other is a texture based calf part which looks awesome but the shoes are seriously dated (um hello 2007?).
For a long time I’ve been meaning to head over to J’s shoes as I’ve seen them on various blog posts but I’ve not been able to make it into SL. So recently I created some new stuff and needed some shoes to go with the outfit so I said, “Hells bells, I will hit up J’s for some boots”.
Buying shoes that go up the calves for my avatar is difficult. Well let me rephrase that. It’s easy to buy any shoes in general but I am very particular about fitting things and finding something that looks good is very difficult. Usually boots make my calves look like elephant legs with no hint of an ankle at all. They cankle-ize me.
Look at how close the knee high boots fit to my avatar’s calves. It’s AWESOME!
Although I just demo’ed these (I plan to buy them later- the fat pack!!!!) the shoes I really needed for the outfit was the ankle high rounded boots. These look FANTASTIC and on hindsight I am sad I didn’t buy the fatpack.
Prim toes and Kesseret are 2 things that DON’T get along. My friend Iris Bourdielle made prim toes years ago and I wore her shoes for a long while but since then I’ve not found a pair that looked good on me or fit well. Sadly, since there are so many fantastic prim feet/toe shoe designers. (Despite the fact that many people have no reading comprehension skills and can’t understand the difference between not liking how something fits and writing about it v. completely dissing someone’s work I *do* admire Stiletto Moody shoes and their quality a lot.)
I love the fact that J’s offers demos! HOLY DEMO BATMAN! So I tried on these strappy numbers at J’s and they have a resize script (which I HATE) but it took 4 clicks and I was fitted. I also saw a delete option. How sexy is that? So I bought the fatpack. And you know what else I saw? THEY SCRIPT TEXTURE CHANGE! I AM IN LOVE! I love texture changing scripts so much that I actually use them myself.
Just see how sexy they look on me yourself:
I am still trying to figure out the toe matching to the skin. Do skin providers provide RGB info on their skins? I heard wind of it but never needed it before. If so can someone hook a sista up? 
But seriously, look at the way the straps fit! PERFECTLY! And this only took like 4 clicks to fit!!!! I seriously shit twice and died when I tried these on. My only desire is to have the script remove the resizing option and keep the texture change once they are fit. Which if it’s all one script that’s impossible. I am not a big fan of toe jewelry but I like the flower. It’s cute so I sometimes turn that feature on.
They are CHUBBY CAT APPROVED.
SLURL TO J’S
Love,
Kesseret
I finally got to see Tabitha Ninetails of Laughing Academy online and she was telling me about this beautiful dress she designed for Eye Candy’s Belisama’s Mantle. I had purchased Belisama’s Mantle sometime during the Jewelry expo and it wasn’t until Tabitha told me about the dress that I was able to wear it with something!
So I got dressed up and hopped over to Jade’s Jazz Lounge where I accidentally crashed someone’s wedding reception to take this picture. (oops)
Dress: Candace Aflame from Laughing Academy. There are so many good dresses, shoes, and jewelry there.
Jewelry: Belisama’s Mantle from Eye Candy. Lots of shinies there to covet.

An old friend logged in and we started looking at pictures in our inventory. We were laughing about the GTHQ sandbox and how much fun it was and the best times we had. I decided to post a picture from my inventory when I get in the mood. I hope that everyone enjoys looking at my last 3 years in SL and what I did when I wasn’t creating jewelry.
Search term in Inventory: RON
(I’ll start you all off easy, there’s lots of pictures of humping)
This is my friends Ron and Noam dancing at Jade’s Jazzy Lounge.
My friend got a dragon avatar and was showing it to me real quickly (i’ve been trying to watch Knowing for the last 6 hours) before I logged off. I asked to see his colon and then decided to cam on his dragon butt.
This is me, through the legs of a dragon. No colon, no butthole, not even dragon balls.
I will take a nice pic with this outfit sometime- I love it. I also think you should go shop at Dark Mouse Jewelry. Because Kess said to.
I am trying to figure out how to make my ‘default’ sky setting be a specific sky setting. Without inputting everything manually and saving it into default- is there a way?
I spent about 45 minutes working with the Stiletto Moody shoes. This is my report back.
1. No notecard inside the items so how was I supposed to magically know about the 1 ankle that had the menu system with the HELP button that points to the website?
2. It resizes but weirds out when I try to manual resize to 2.0. Could be user error here.
3. Only the ankle resizes and it looks absolutely ridiculous on my foot.
With that I’m going to sum up my statement from the last post which people clearly didn’t get.
1. Thank you Stiletto Moody for offering up this gift, happy anniversary and may you have many more anniversaries within SL or beyond.
2. They are well made and very good looking and there’s a reason for their fanbase.
Now to quote Gordon Ramsey in his typical method of dismissal: Piss off.
365:
So apparently Brazil (or someone using proxies) believes there’s nothing going on in my brain. Sweet. You’d be very surprised how much I don’t write about on my Second Life related blogs because I am sure no one is interested in Linux, RIAA and licensing for/and video games, working around a feedburner bug, fixing a Wordpress MU bug, and other things that I do, in my spare time, and contribute to a ‘community’ that isn’t Second Life related. But I digress….
So I thought I’d give Stiletto Moody shoes a try. In the spirit of the fatshionista I thought I would give these shoes, which have a large and vocal fan-base, a try. So when they offered a freebie due to their anniversary (Happy Anniversary Stiletto Moody!) I thought I would go for it. Originally I wasn’t going to because I’ve never been interested in spending a lot of linden on a pair of shoes but someone suggested that I just give it a whirl so I though this was the perfect opportunity. Trust me, I wouldn’t spend the money on a first time purchase, but if this gift worked for me you bet your sweet ass I’d be buying a plenty.
So I noticed in the pack there is a small, medium, and large shoe set. SWEET. Multi-sizes. Sadly, this also means NO MODIFY. So I try on the large and the shoes just don’t work. I am ANAL retentive about fitting my prims. I’ve had several people comment about how perfect my prim fitting looks. I just like it to be a certain way. These shoes did not cut it.
It wasn’t because the shoes were technically problematic. Oh no, they were sculpted perfectly and looked SEXY. I just had too fat of feet. Way too fat. I’m not a fan on changing my shape- this blog isn’t called The Virtual “Sometimes” Fatshionista (only when it suits me) so I just had to set the moodies away until I decided to wear another shape for pictures or something.
So here’s a picture of me after I tried to fit one of the feet. For you Moody-fans I can see exactly why you are. These things are sculpted beautifully. I just can’t wear a product that a) doesn’t fit me and b) can’t be modified to fit me. They also looked a bit unnatural because my avatar is 5′0 inworld, but part of that could be that they just were too “big” but not wide enough.
I’ve been alerted to this: GUIDE TO STILETTO MOODY SHOES and tomorrow will be diligently reading it over and report back. Maybe there is a resize option. See the ankle bracelet was INSIDE my cankle so it was too big… but here’s a plan.
This is my bestie Marissa Racecourse and I up in her skybox just farting around.
I noticed after I took it that my skin wouldn’t rez. I did about 10 rebakes and finally it came up but I didn’t retake.
Love,
Kessles.
Once my store is done being built I will rebrand and have plenty of work to do. Today I was checking out the build.I think it is fantastic and the coloring, while it may not be someone else’s fancy, is gorgeous to me. It reminds me of vanilla creme chocolates. YUM.
Most often I hop up on a posestand as soon as I log in so I can sort incoming notecards (even though I prefer IMs so I can reply on the blackberry), notices, IMs, and whatever else SL decides to toss at me while I am work. It takes about 15 minutes to finish all my ‘first log’ junk. Once I was done I had to log off for dinner. I live a fantastic Slife.
I love Second Life because I can’t play a LICK of piano but inworld I totally can!
The dress is Stellar (look in Lexi Morgan’s profile for LM to buy one!)
Hair is Truth
Piano is a Hermes MP3 player/piano. (You can go to Winterstock and see it)
Someone in the bunny group asked a question so I rezzed a bunny box to try something. Turns out LL fixed another ‘bug’ which really was better off existing.
Ozimals ftw.
I am using Annyka’s lavender world preset (it’s all in my Emerald folder) and I noticed I am missing more clothing but glad I found Hexed pink shirt here.
I have some serious cankles… 
Love,
Kess
PS: BUNNIES RULE!
I’m doing this early as tonight is dinner at Carrabas with my husband and his friends and then a night of drunken revelry and Rock Band. Not only can I sing but I can play guitar and bass (sometimes I can sing and play an instrument!) Honestly, it’s one of my few talents that have which is why I am all braggy.
I totally know I haven’t changed clothes in a couple days. Those pants probably stink! I would title this one, “Shhhh I put 60L Sunday out early because I’m going to be shit-faced and singing Social Distortion and No Doubt in 3 hours. (I also do a mean Still Alive since I’m a soprano I)
With love and Irish Car Bombs,
Kesseret
Time ran out on me and I didn’t do Day 6. This picture is of me working on vendors for my new release. (I originally titled this day 6- I can’t even keep track anymore, old age, le sigh!)
This would be titled: “Devil’s view”.(as it’s the view over my left shoulder)
I listen to that little guy A LOT.
Love,
Kess
Sometimes when I am engrossed working on a piece of jewelry I catch a glimpse of my avatar. I thought it would make a nice 365 picture.
I guess this is “from the jewelry’s perspective”.
