(Video)Model for a day

...or video killed the radiostar...that's more what happened!
Sundaynight I had one of the most exciting experiences so far (duh! poetical freedom) in SL! Out of the blue I got a groupcall from Shorne Boyd, who was about to open his club Xanadu on Kuduran. He needed people who'd like to star in the vid that was made to show what his beach club was like. It took me 3 nanoseconds to respond: 'I want to, me toooo'. 'Cause who could possibly resist the opportunity to star in a video, yet very sexy but without the monomonous rap, gangsta-filth and too much bling-bling??? Add some dragonfire to it and it still will be very spicy! Mmmm...almost BBQ-feeling! So, I took out my sassy silver dress and tp'd over.
Arrived at the beautiful beach resort we got instructions to dance in sync and show that we had fun there. Well, np...the host made us feel at home ;))
I tp'd my friend Sappheire over, who was such a sport to come right away. She on her turn got her friend Mal over, who later became a unexpected star in the movie...Bebop, the vid-man, make short-cuts from various scenes, from the dancefloors to the beach and laid out his plans for an exciting ending. First we had to take the jetski's out and show what we got! Well I got it until I crashed with a girl and we both we're going down into the ocean full throttle...which was filmed...lolGuys, look at that water..the ripples...woww...
When we all had returned to the beach and dried ourselves with the towls, we learned that we had to dance again and that we would be attacked by dragons! Here's the part where Mal comes in: he is the shiny, metallic Red Dragon! I love it, Mal! Let the pics speek for themselves, awesome!!!The only thing I wasn't able to take a picture of was the end...all the models dead on the beach...I was afraid my pictaking animation would ruin the vid ;))
Aaah..all's well, that ends well, and some actors ended with the obligatory hug at the end (couldn't resist the pic, guys ;))
Readers, pay Xanadu a visit!!!

Viva Mexico!!

Today a friend of mine asked me if I had seen the ancient sites of Mexico, called Mexico-Chichèn Itza-Archeological site and New World Wonder!
When they say this about a place, well you may expect something! Ha! And darn, they were right! The whole site was beautifully made with very authentic looking buildings, excavated objects and mexican rugs... I loved it! Right at the landing zone it says you can get an audiotour...therefore you need to follow the instructions and sit on the butterflies back. I did not try it, but I went for a stroll along the island...please, do the same! It is awesome in its details!
I let the pictures speak for themselves!

Let's elope...

To my astonishment I received an invitation last weekend for a wedding from a girl from my friendslist, whith whom, I'm sorry to admit it, I had only spoken once, briefly. And if that was not surprising enough: the wedding was supposed to be in half an hour!!! This is enough to make a girl go crazy, looking in her closet and noticing she has nothing to wear! It said on the invitation though: dresscode red and black. Mmmm...what kind of wedding is that? Sure, the location was a castle...
I hurried over and entered a hall which was very nicely decorated with red and white roses. Black and red was everywhere, but actually it was not tacky or strange at all.
I expected the bride to be in red or black, but she appeared in a lacey, beautiful white gown and walked through the isle to her future husband.
I watched the ceremony which was short but very sweet (everyone was still grey, but after that I could take pics ;)) If you are a bit longer in SL you'll notice that a wedding is a serious matter there! From the first meeting to proposal and the wedding, art imitates life here! Many relationships in SL have an effect on the RL, either good or bad, but you can't ignore it. The universal longing for a mate, companion, partner or lover is always there...
Good luck, Debbie and Bulldog, and I hope you will continue to be very happy together!

Italia Paradiso Fine Decor (furniture)

My good friend Tiberious Babenco and his girlfriend Carinna Roffo have recently opened a very nice store in the Ilha Brasil, called Italia Paradiso, with their handcrafted furniture Mediterrenean style. You see materials like marble, glass, teak, ceramic etc. in warm colours, to decorate your villas in a luxurious, yet very nice priced style.
Look around to see if one of the many marble fireplace sets is just what you need at home! Refine the look with comfy couches, lazy deckhairs, candles in glass, vases in various decor, lampshades or a stylish photograph of several famous sites in SL.
Look around, you are always welcome, like you expect from la familia Italiana!

Gracile shoes

Sometimes you find the nicer things in SL: scripted heels and boots! Not only with bling, but sometimes with all kinds of textures, that makes them really versatile! You buy one pair, but you get multiple with these ones!
Gracile, has next to skins and jewelry, some nice displays with lovely scripted shoes and boots. Try a demo to see how it goes with that pants you have (sometimes the boots come through the pants! Another thing: black with the boots isn't really black, but more dark grey, that is a shame, I think). The boots are deliverd with both large and small tops to adjust to your leg. Textures are mouseclick menu-driven and for the cute Stone Queen, matching earrings are also included.
Because these items are somewhat pricy, try out the demo if you like all the textures before buying!

G-Axis: Go-Kart!

Last weekend I paid also a visit to very nice place, if you want to take your guy out on a date, that he'll totally love. It's not romantic, so ideal for a first date, when you just want to have a good time! Check this place out: G-AXIS-Kart-Race-Cars-Helicopter-Boats-Racetrack.
Just rez a kart by touching the boxes along the grid, choose your fave colour kart and check the controls to drive! You can change your speed by Pg Up & Pg Dn button and direction with the arrow keys. Good luck, it's a bit tricky, but a lot of fun!
The computer of the track will state your fastest lap etc. Try it out! The man who made it all, has alongside the track also a nice collection cars and several other places for all his vehicles. Have fun!
