Peace – that was the other name for home. ~ Kathleen Norris
Some of my friends in SL travel a lot in RL, for work or pleasure, and they have told me that the stability a home base in SL provides for them means more than they expected. Sitting in a hotel room, using the crappy wifi, sometimes it’s a balm to log in and see your comfy sofa and favorite art on the wall, right where you left it. I arranged a comfortable room with furnishings from Shiny Shabby. Some are gacha, like the great pieces from Kunst Himmel and the sofas and pieces from Marinestella and Serab, and some are just pieces you can purchase without chancing it, like Colleen Desmoulin’s sofa and mirror. Amazingly, they all fit together.
I wore a boho elegant outfit, pairing a translucent top from Poulet Koenkamp that includes a lovely set of textures and a great sheerness, with jeans from Paul Lapointe and Bastchild Lotus. These flares have been out a while but Paul has reconfigured the mesh to fit the Maitreya Lara body, and they fit like a glove, especially with the perfect L&B ass. I wore Aikea Reiko’s lovely jewelry for Shiny Shabby and new shoes from Senzati0n Domenitzo that she is, omg no, featuring in her own store and not at an event!
I have put Aleida Rhode’s Omega applier for the Devine II skin on the Logo head here and damn if it doesn’t look just spectacular. I think some skins with Omega appliers are not meant for the Logo head—the brows don’t extend far enough, the lips look overblown. With this skin, it’s perfect. Brown eyes from Ikon Innovia from Shiny Shabby and VivienMarli’s sleek long hair finish a beautiful look at home with this beautiful furniture.
