PETIT CHAT: HEALING MY HEART-NEW JEWELLERY SET @ PRETTY THINGS SHOWROOM

Petit Chat has joined Pretty Things Showroom this month. We created an exclusive jewellery set.

Rather than doing a bleeding heart set, we prefered to be positive and we did a healing heart set. Yes… Bleeding heart was sad, but we did put a strap on it, and now it’s recovering … Because time heals everything. Of course scars remain, but there is a saying : “if it doesnt kill me, then it makes me stronger”. So we are made of our scars too. They are a part of what constitute us.

So we wanted to bring positivity and hope to all those sensitive hearts in the world who have been harmed one day. Some of them already know that after the rain always comes a beautiful sunshine. But some others do not know yet. So this jewellery set is here to bring hope, or just remind there is always hope.

Each "Healing heart" jewellery set includes a necklace and a pair of earrings. They are 100 % original mesh and texture. 

The set is materials enabled of course, and there are 5 metal colors to choose from + 1 big fatpack that will save you money if you love them all.

More details on our website (http://petitchatsl.fr/).

The event runs till March the 6th.

The Best Wedding Rings in SL- Tea Couturier Reporting...

If you are getting married in SL and looking for the perfect wedding bands, It can be a bit challenging to find that perfect matching set for you and your partner.

To help you in your search I suggest 5 of my top finds for wedding bands for him and her.

Exquisite Mo Anam Cara White Gold Wedding Collection Gift Box

This set is of black titanium & white gold bands encircled with the Gaelic words "Mo Anam Cara" which is translated as "My soul friend" or "My soul mate". The rings contain no stones or bling and are engraved with "I love you". The set includes a man's ring, a woman's ring and two smaller filigree rings. The larger man's ring and woman's ring is fitted to the left hand while the smaller filigrees are fitted for the right hand (though they can be easily worn with the main rings using a newer viewer which allows multiple attachments. The rings have removable resizers, come gift boxed and are transferrable. The rings are also available in antique yellow gold. Priced at 1,200L.

A Quick Guide on What NOT to Wear Once You Have Passed the 2 Month Marker in Second Life- Tea Couturier

Now I am not one to tell people what not to wear and what to wear in SL, however, I do feel I could help give a few pointers about what to avoid wearing to not make yourself look like a noob or one that has not moved along with the fashion times in Second Life.

When you first enter Second Life, your first point of call is the freebie shops. However, once you are a regular and have been in SL for over 3 months. I feel it is time for you to start looking at what you’re wearing and worrying about your appearance. Your appearance can reflect on you and your social life in SL. Remember, first impressions are important.

Real-life 3D printing of Second Life © Designs – Stareyes Galaxy Reporting…

Three-dimensional (3D) printing of small objects at home has become a popular hobby for wannabe designers, and this shows also in the new technology “hype” statistics.

Anything from decorative and hard-to-find spare parts to the constituent parts of the printer itself can be manufactured using mesh designs and an export file for the printer in question. Second Life © (SL) is also a viable platform for viewing the designs before printing them in 3D, and now also designs made for SL can be printed in glorious 3D for real-life (RL) use. Stareyes Galaxy discussed the technology and real-life examples of SL jewelry with Joja Dhara and Maxi Gossamer.

Bodywear Jewelry: Interview with Kimber Carter – Tea Couturier Reporting…

We can say Fashion is a big part of our SL lives. What we wear signifies who we are and what message we are projecting about ourselves. However, clothes are not the only way to express one’s self. You can use bodywear jewelry to do this too.

What is bodywear jewelry, you ask?

Bodywear jewelry is big in Second Life© and there are quite a few designers out there who create it . However, to explain this jewelry in more depth I could not think of a better creator than Kimber Carter who herself creates one of the biggest range of Bodywear jewelry in SL and is also the owner of the famous CCD jewelry store in SL.

Spotlight Feature: Deliziosa Vendetta, founder of Gems and Kisses Fine Jewelry ~ Shon Charisma Reporting

I am a lover of creativity and imagination, the ways in which people use these tools to fashion things no one else could. And speaking of fashion, well, we know that I am also a lover of fashions, from dresses to jewelry. When I was asked to talk with the innovative and unique designer Deliziosa Vendetta about Gems & Kisses Fine Jewelry, my heart went all aflutter. Before you even marvel at her jewelry designs, you are greeted with the simple, yet strong, elegant jewelry box design of the store. Needless to say, I emptied my bank account while perusing Gems & Kisses, and was excited to talk to Vendetta about her inspiration, creativity, and Season 1 of Gems & Kisses Royal Miss 2012, which kicks off this month.

Take Five with Jewelry Designer Earth Nirvana

I love clothes. There, I've confessed it. When I'm on the grid, if I'm not working, I am at some store (or on Marketplace) looking through outfits to buy. Clothes and shoes. All the time. But there is another important component to a Fashionista's diet besides clothes and shoes: accessories! The right pair of earrings or set of bracelets or sparkling necklace can set off an outfit. I will admit that in the past, I wasn't as focused on my accessories as I needed to be, but over the summer, I began to appreciate what a little bling on a ring could do for my wardrobe, so I set out to find me great pieces that could be worn with my traditional tee-jeans-sneakers 'fits or my steampunk puppet 'fits or my...well, you get the picture.

I met Earth Nirvana through Facebook. We became FB buddies there and occasionally made comments about each other's postings, and then I realized that she actually was an artist who designed jewelry in-world. Of course, me acting like I had all the money in the world, quickly went to her store on Marketplace and began buying up. Not only does Earth offer great pieces (I so <3 her earrings and bracelets), but she offers these wares at awesome prices. With SL's ELEMENTS Jewelry Fair 2011 kicking off this past weekend, I thought I would talk to Earth about her wares, her inspirations, and her goals for the next year.




Earth Nirvana, born in-world December 26, 2008, is a mother of two and the sole visionary and creator behind Earth’s Bangles & Other Creations, a business that prides itself with supplying SL residents with quality items at low cost. Earth’s Bangles complements all looks from the glamorous to the casual with a $50L or less price tag. Using various shapes, colors, textures and styles, drawing inspiration from everything around her, Earth manages present an array of fashion and costume adornments.
