Skin Fair ... sorta

I made a very lame attempt at attending the Skin Fair. I did it half-heartedly as I'm such a loyal fan of Chai and a few other skin designers that I just adore.
Browsing became more comparing to the skins that I already own. I really didn't see many skins that gave me that "oh I have to buy" and not many that I haven't seen before the Fair. Did I miss those new skins? Maybe... but! I did find a cool "new-to-me"designer.
La Sylphide has some gorgeous skins that I am thinking about purchasing. At the main store, I found this freebie skin and got inspired! If her freebie sparked this outcome, then just maybe I will get a few of her not-so-free skins.

Press Release: KMADD Event

The Urban Adventurer. This phrase conjures up a vision of business people, clad in Hugo Boss and Armani suits, making their daily commute through the urban jungle. Wearing their skull and bones messenger bags, they artfully dodge cabs while crossing the street, all the while balancing a Venti Starbucks latte in one hand and the financial paper in the other. Head over to TheZoo Fashion Show on Saturday, March 1, 2008 at 4:00pm SLT and see how SL designer Froddo Beck applies the urban adventure way of thinking to his designs. MAD Agency is producing the show, and KMADD Enterprise CEO Kirk Claymore will be creating the "ode to nature" backdrop.
TheZoo designer Froddo Beck has cornered the market when it comes to the adventurer style. The clothes are simple yet wearable, perfect for the man who wants to ‘blend in’ with his surroundings. As the company tag line says, there is no fur, and the colours are not loud, opting more for more muted earth tones. Stylistically, think of a modern-day Indiana Jones but not costume-y or gimmicky. According to Froddo, “TheZoo is not about printing animal textures on the outfits, it’s about the wild (nature) side of life.”
TheZoo offers high quality clothing, with shirts, jackets, and pants seamless from every view. Images used are 1024px textures, and clothing items are always packaged as a complete adventurer outfit. Whether a true nature adventurer or an urban jungle explorer, any man would find designs from TheZoo a welcome addition to his wardrobe.
DJ Kromus spins the tunes for the after-party at 5:30pm SLT. Close your eyes, let go, and prepare for the adventure of a lifetime!

The icing on the cake...

What's my favorite way to spend a Saturday in Second Life? Fashion shows, of course! And today is no exception. Today the fashion show I plan on attending will be the *Icing* Fashion Show sponsored by the incredible MAD modeling agency. Miko Omegamu happens to be one of my favorite designers in Second Life. Her clothes have a quiet confidence, that to me is the definition of sexy. I can't wait to see what goodies they have in store. Head on over to KMADD Enterprises at 4:00 SLT. I'm sure it's a show you do not want to miss. Stick around after the show as DJ Kromus Korobase spins some tunes. It's a party you will definitely not want to miss. Dress fashionably: the theme is French Country.
