VvB Stiletto Heels

While I was visiting Addictions Latex I notice some shoes off in the corner made by VvB. I thought this was a usual case of designers co-locating. It turns out VvB has a few locations and the main store is at Dark Eternity. The vendor displays seemed a bit dated and dull, but I'm not into the goth scene, so maybe it's just me. The shoes look nice and there are matching cuffs.

I was disappointed that there were no demos available until I ran into the designer and owner Viktoria Brandenburg at Hugo's Design. I was speaking to the manager of Hugo's and out of the blue Viktoria gave a pair of shoes as a free gift :) I did not recognize her at first. I must say, these are some mighty fine high heeled platform shoes and boots!

When you visit the main store be sure to go upstairs to see the boots.

Hugo's Design

Upon first arriving in Second Life I found my way to Hugo's Design. I didn't have any Linden Dollars so I wandered on, forgetting about the store. Upon finding my way back my memory was jogged and I knew exactly what I wanted. Well, except for the color. lol

Hugo offers the sexiest latex at a premium price. Offsetting this are some free heart pasties when you arrive at the store. I was surprised to find the vendor displays had text covering up some anatomy with instructions to click in order to see the non censored images on Hugo's web site.

The store manager Bianka Bookmite was working, look for her behind you when you teleport in, and gave me some names of other stores on where to find matching shoes/boots. Her #1 recommendation was Bax Coen. I'll be making my way to the others as I work through my backlog of stores. Shopping is so much work.

Eternity Brides and Seldom Blue

Let's start with the bargains. There are four prize chairs in the lobby with a 20 min countdown to the next letter is chosen. Freebies include hoop earrings and the Sky Dress in pink. There are some L$1 necklaces if you keep your eyes out. A couple of gowns were free and L$1 over at their shop at Sxy2nd SIM. It's been a while since I've been to a store with so many bargains, so please excuse my excitement :)

I found the store to be eerily familiar because it is a SomethingReal Atkey prefab that is also used by A&k Designs. Like the A&k store this one is divided up into departments.

The Exotic department offers exotic clothing and accessories. There is a Poses department, but some pose demos didn't appear to be working (and I turned off my AO). The poses are by Covenant Laval. It will be interesting to see what future poses bring. The Day Wear department uses the paper doll clothing display style (flat images of the clothing hanging from racks) but did have good photos for the posters- just not the model's back showing in all of them.

The Lingerie departments have excellent multilayer lingerie sets with several options for mixing up the outfits. I particularly liked the Latex Lucy line of trousers and basque. There are some lovely gowns on the first floor and up on the second floor are wedding gowns, jewelry and soon wedding cakes. While looking at the jewelry I wondered if I could pull off a tiara while dressed in lingerie.










Price Range:
  • Exotic Clothes, L$495-525
  • Exotic Accessories, L$79-195
  • Pose Sets, L$149-299
  • Day Wear Clothes, L$1-200, Packs L$760
  • Sexy Stella Lingerie, L$250-792
  • Kira Lingerie, L$465-792
  • Gowns, L$375-575
  • Wedding Gowns, L$1,500
  • Jewlery, L$1-325
  • Lingerie, L$30-245, Packs/Sets L$700-1465

Karu Karu

Chane Karu says that she offers "The finest and most afordable fetish fashion in Second Life" and she is right. Her store layout is the best I have seen, her displays show the outfits perfectly, and the most expensive outfit is L$299. Good luck finding a pair of shoes to match for less than that.

The only criticisms I have is that Karu Karu does not list permissions (no copy, no modify, no transfer- given the price I'm not surprised), no matching shoes/boots are offered, and the store models are not properly posed and are behind tinted glass.

More Entries for the Sintimacy Photo Contest 3.0

I've just submitted three more entries for the Sintimacy Photo Contest 3.0. Second Life photography could become as addictive as shopping :) If you haven't noticed I have managed to combine the two. Somewhat obviously I had to shop for the Sintimacy outfits because the rules require Sintimacy outfits be worn for the contest. When you look at the photos with Jeri you will see that she is outfited with additional props, her motorcycle in the previous batch of entries and her headphones as she DJs in this batch. Just one of the many little things that go into great photography.
