Studying With Reek

The semester has started, and I am procrastinating severely again (it’s in my DNA!). On the plus side, this Reek apparel has done a pretty good job capturing the comfort look I tend to gravitate toward when lying around staring blankly at my books.

A Girl and Her Closet

Trying on clothes is so much more fun in SL than it is in RL (mainly because I don’t get all tangled up trying to take my pants off).

Shoe Fair Pt. 3

Two words: fetish boots.

Shoe Fair Pt 3 Blog 1

Featured Above:
Shoes: !Drakke! “Elektra RLV” Fetish Boots (Black/Black Heels) (Located on Osmium Sim)
Pose Seat (Left): estetica: Shoe Seat Cubed (Located on the Rhodium Sim)
Pose (Right): estetica: love your shoes (Located on the Rhodium Sim)

Hair (Hat Included): fri.day – Joanna – Sensitive Black
Eyes: ::Umedama Holic::GemStone eye G04 (In-Store Freebie)
Outfit: Pig Shop – Liza Minelli is ALIVE (Past Project Themeory Item)

Though this shoe has a built in RLV feature, I haven’t tried it out for myself. (Mainly because I know I’ll end up naked in the ocean of a random infohub.) There is also a version of the Elektra Fetish Boots without the RLV option (they are less expensive as well). These boots also come with a hud allowing the user to change the band color on the boots.

The Platform Pumps can be worn with or without the front strap, and each section of the shoe can be retextured. The DARE Booties also include an easy to use HUD that allows the wearer to modify toe and toe nail polish color. There are even slots available to save custom toe colors.

As mentioned (and shown) above, smartHUD v3.0 contains 4 effects categories–Emotions, Animations, Screen FX, and Avatar FX.

  • The Emotions category allows you to change your facial expression (some of these expressions also include a full body animation).
  • The Animations category allows you to easily perform preset animations (such as the AFK slouch, shrug, and backflip).
  • The Screen FX category allows you to choose an effect that will be displayed directly upon your screen (this will be visible to only you). This category also allows you to add custom screen effects.
  • The Avatar FX category allows you to choose an effect that will be displayed upon or around your avatar (this will be visible to everyone around you). This category also includes animations with some of the effects. Be sure to wear the smartHUD body effects v3.0 attachment, when attempting to use effects from this category.
