Teeth. Hm. Yeah. Teeth.

hey all,

hope everybody had a good 4th. Mine was great, followed by a July 5th nightmare, but I don't think it will inspire a skin unless anybody can think of a way to incorporate the Dept. of Motor Vehicles and completely idiotic County officials into a skin. I dunno. Maybe a tatt...

So this is just a little teaser, but I took a whack at teeth and cleavage this weekend. I've attached a couple photos - I haven't worked these into a line, but I'm thinking about adding the cleavage as an option. If you have any opinions on that, I'm interested.

Teeth are odd. Mine all came out a little buck-toothed, but I still think they're ok. Decided to try dimples, too. What the heck.

I'll let you know when any or all of these features are released. As always, thanks for checking out the blog.

Cheers!

Let's Blow Stuff UP!

it's the 4th of July here in the US and that means only one thing - TIME TO BLOW STUFF UP! independence, in my neighborhood, takes a backseat to noisy barbecues and night skys blossoming with fire and color and the kind of racket that results in dogs being sent to the far reaches of heavily policed suburbs for a rest cure and some tranquilizers.

However you celebrate, have a great 4th of July!

So that has NOTHING to do with skins, so here are some photos of Amara, the new release. Drop by and pick up the Demos! Fat Packs on sale now!

Why SL is still worth it...

Everybody has their own answers, I know. Mostly I'm quite reclusive. Hiding out, not talking, wandering but maintaining a great distance from pretty much everybody else.

Still, when you have a problem, usually within a minute or two, somebody is willing to bail your ass out of even the most ridiculous situations (remember that box embedded in your head when you were a noob?)


So here's my latest experience with the loveliness of so many folks in SL:

[21:49] Anik Pavlova: hello all. is anybody aware of issues relating to missing textures on avatars - i'm solid black at the moment. i seem to remember having this happen last year, but clearing the caches has not helped. suggestions very welcome!
[21:49] Anik Pavlova: my eyeballs are floating under my hair. i hate that.
[21:50] Dorion Zenfold: i had similar problem couple of days back when my avi went completely white.
[21:50] Anik Pavlova: oh well, at least i have something to blog about now... attractive photo to go with it, too.
[21:50] Dorion Zenfold: re-wear your skin and shape
[21:51] Anik Pavlova: tried that earlier... oh wait. not the shape. ok. good idea.
[21:52] Dorion Zenfold: :)
[21:52] Dorion Zenfold: and change your clothes
[21:53] Anik Pavlova: ok. you're a freaking genius. the shape thing worked. didn't even have to change clothes!
[21:53] Dorion Zenfold: hahaha
[21:53] Anik Pavlova: thanks! give yourself a gold star and a nice chocolate ice cream cone :-)

I gushed with gratitude for several more minutes and then signed off from the Happy Hippsters group with my little problem solved, eyeballs properly veiled by a face. I'm so sensitive about that.


But stuff like that happens all the time. Something weird happens, you send out a desperate wail to the universe and somebody bothers to help. I like it.

So there it is. I have limped through another blog post. Don't tell me it wasn't fun, I see you over there with your eyes rolled back in your head smoking a cigarette.

Cheers,
Anik

The thing is....

I love SL. I love skinning for SL. I love checking out the fashion scene and wandering around looking at the amazing things out there. I just got a little loft from flowey with this phenomenal light sliding through the windows - it's beautiful. She also makes great poses and these cool signs with some great quotes on them. Prices? seriously MORE than fair.

So I don't know what I'll be blogging about. It seems sort of tedious to keep raving about my skins - check out my skins, see my skins, oh please please love my skins, mostly buy my skins memememe blahhhhhhh.....zzzzzzz....... but, you know, just assume I'm saying that every time you visit the blog and I'll plan on leaving it out of all future posts. Please. Thank you.

So I'm about to go looking for some good deals on decor for my new digs. I'll let you know what I find :-)

SL Fashion Bloggers...

or really any bloggers, if you'd like to be added to my blogroll, let me know. Yeah, I'm new, but I hope to gather a bit of momentum and I'd love to trade links.

I'm hoping to put up info about new YoLo skin releases and also make note of any special, rare, beautiful strokes of mad genius I fall over in SL. I don't have a clue what I'm doing and I don't sleep much... really, anything could happen.

At any rate...

Thanks for your interest and for checking out this brand new start for YoLo.
More skins on the way...

Cheers,
Anik

YoLo on Harlow

Hey All,

YoLo Skins is on Harlow with a New-ish store and newer skins, including Tornado Weather skins, on sale NOW for the Red Cross Haitian Relief effort. They're very reasonably priced in a variety of shades and fit a wide variety of shapes nicely, so please come check them out and try on the DEMOS!

Also on sale are all of my prior efforts - they're on their way out, so grab one at a deep discount before they're gone - great for newer players with budgetary concerns :-)

Thanks for visiting YoLo - I hope you like what you see.
Cheers,

PANTY RAID!!! YoLo Skins is Open on Floyd!

ok, that was not exactly how i planned on introducing my stuff, but what the heck. life happens. and as a result i have put some skins in some clams and scattered them around Floyd.

four years ago that sentence would have made NO SENSE AT ALL.

but in the glorious and magical now, it means there's FREE STUFF all over the Starlust sims. FREE and EXCELLENT and cool. undies and all sorts of other goodies (since some of us are not quite up on our undie knitting).

so hello. i'm from YoLo.

YoLo Skins. I'll edit this and ad a slurl later today. In the meantime I've got some photos on Flickr at: www.flickr.com/photos/yoloskins/ and a lovely spot in the watering can on the hill overlooking the tossed salad fabulosity that is floyd and the rest of starlust.

my line is... uh... MINIMAL at the moment, but more is coming over the next several weeks and i'm keeping the prices low low low until i have a bit more to show.

so that's it for now. hope you check us out, get a free skin and have a great time.

Cheers for now,
Anik Pavlova
