Hello world, hello you all, this is my first blog entry ever, so dont take it as serious. Strange enough, had so many things to start with – well but as always – something diffrent comes up, so let see if I can get it done! Dont worry – wont bother you with boring RL stuff too much – but these words have to be said:
Mura’s spiecy Style Review on boring G8 summit, somewhere in the nowhere of eastern Germany:
To start my first fashionista style comment, I think this message is very important to all of us. No matter if you are an Ava getting stuck in a laggy animation or find yourself back in RL feeling awkward – it happens always, and believe me: Nobody cares. You still can end up in daily top story, as this example shows:
But now let’s have a look on some better style examples: Do you see it?
Yes, I knew you would see it: It is all about the sneakers! You see the black Addidas sneakers with white stripes on the right background – and how cool he looks? See the no-name white sneakers the boring guy with the white jacket standing in the middle wears? Who you believe these really cool looking girl on the left with here olive-green colored jacket is looking at? …
No, it is not all about sneakers? Right you are. It is about picking the right piece – and make it look really good. I am not selling you the Addidas brand – just have a look at a guy who had chosen quite similar looking sneakers – they are not the same. He has chosen a completly outfashinioned, overdone “Retro”-edition – just look how these sneakers worked for him:
Well, enough for the loosers – here I show you a style that rocks:
OMG – unbelievable.
I counted it: he wears more than 6 different pieces of clothes – all in the same anthracite grey color. The only style highlight he allowed him: the light grey stone. You couldn’t see the stone better even if he dressed up in pink having his stone in neon-green color! What an appareance – no wonder the whole audience rocks as you can see on the pic:
After this style highlight another important lesson:
When you arrive new at a place – it is always difficult to orientate yourself and finally finding the dance ball that really rocks you. Don’t feel ashamed – its the same thing in RL, but when you finally succeed, its worth all the efforts you have taken.
Just look at the pic:
He might be alone, but he really rocks! Finally he found the dance ball – cleverly tarned as police truck – and now dance ball animates Avatar!
And now another lessons: Some learn it only from the hard side – Shape First, the rest like skin and color will follow!
See him – how strained he tries to put himself with his red jacket into this scene? He is surrounded by red looking things underlining his style: his own hairs, the burning red stool behind him, the red helmet in the left background – what do you think?
I think with a shape looking as ridicoulous like his he could have covered the whole scene in red – still it wouldn’t be a match! His body is half the size of his jacket – may be when ever he comes to SL he should start as a fur…
Ok, enough with the loosers
– open your eyes right wide open and look at this!
Ain’t he.. ain’t he.. cuuute?
You see how lovely the color of his hairs matches with the surrounding color of fire? How nicely he poses? You see his eyes – how much khol he must have used? And his fingers.. not sure if you can see it on this blog.. it looks as if he has polished them! Really, this is “grand cinema”! Of course I would love to see him inworld, and even forgiving him using nail polish! If he stays in style like this, he could talk for hours about his revolution and so on – it wouldn’t bother me!
But now to an other important topic: Peer Pressure!
You feel it, you try to avoid it – but faster than you can look you get stuck.
Just see here:
Aren’t they are all dressed nicely in suburban style? Grey in grey? Having fun and dancing all the time? ….
… would you like to join them? Of course not – I dont want to convert to the Army of lover of grey clothes, and obviously the whole crowed in the background dont want it, too!
If one of them would be dressed a bit different – may be they should ask a pink dressed girl to join them – how much bigger this party could grow!
This might sound a bit sarcastic, but my message to you comes deep from my heart: dont let you be overcome by peer pressure – you wont shine, as little as they do on the pic: Better you just follow your way!
….
And now here we go – The final style finishing: Who’s the winner?
Before we come to the solution, just take this little advertising break:
“Mura’s Spices” – my mission is to spice up your second (art) life – don’t take it easy – I will send you messages you wont forget – in which life however! If you think its just for the fun – just look at this message from me:
Green, the color green – are you crazy to play around with it? It does exist less than SL is real. Its just a mixture of yellow and blue. You don’t believe? Just try out with your watercolors. You will see the problem with green: Even with watercolors you can create nearly every shade of green. But when you mix it – you always have to find a compromise between the dominant yellow and blue color. So, a nicley olive green really is no natural fit with yellow – orange color. Can be, but mostly its not due to the high blue concentration in the olive green. If you ever see a difference between these dominate poles – better run away.
You think I am kidding and you have no idea of what I am talking about:
Look at this!
These boys got the message! Just see how the try to run away in their olive green dresses before getting photographed in front of this orange fire! They know how to be in style – so you better should do the same!
— end of ad message: Here the winners are:
No. 1:
I have talked a lot about peer pressure, but in this moment even me wouldn’t like to be dressed in pink – subtle shades of grey and dark blue match much better to this forceful looking photo shooting location!
… and the second winner – No. 1.1:
What a shame – they really got the better, even more powerful looking setting. And they all dressed perfectly – same style in grey anthracite, ready to impress.
But sorry, this was The Final, a decision had to be made – blame it on the guy dressed with this really un-appropriate red vest, but failures wont be accepted in RL as well as in SL:
Attac is the winner in Mura’s Spicey Style Contest No. 1!
