Moyet - Spiked Corset and Latex Body

Deirdre:
To be perfectly clear, the kit I’m wearing tonight is Moyet’s Spiked Corset, along with the Spiked Collar, and Spiked Cuffs, three separate items.

If you think “Klingon Lingerie” when you see this gear, you have the same sense of humor I do. I recommend seeking help ;)

The lovely and wicked spikes on all three items look quite good (and fierce) at fairly close range, but fade a bit from a distance. Nature of the beast, and definitely not a bug.

The corset has a good pose included. By good I mean that it holds the corset solidly in place, affecting walk, stand and sit poses.

The collar has a wicked-queen look to it, but sports a set of five cute little padlocks in front (the first one is even monogrammed!). So I’d say it’s suitable for domme or sub.

The generous invisiprims around the corset are mod; take a copy before you start, and reshape and resize them at need.

Then go hug rubber dolls.. or, try ;)

lelo:
Don’t worry your eyes are still working fine, just happens Mistress ended up with the spiky stuff and for a change i got the sexy clothing *yay*

I’m sure somehow i’m going to pay for that, but hé whats life without it’s little risks.

The latex body comes both underwear and normal wear layer, giving you room for jackets or lingerie.

Next to the stockings and gloves, you get the fluffy collar and cuffs in the set.

The overall design is simple and i just love that, no overdone, “only works in SL” stuff, simple is good in these basic clothes.

Just add shoes, jewelry, the normal or locking kind and you have the base of a great outfit here and the fluff makes it stand out from the crowd.

DS Tech - Rubber Puppy

Deirdre:
We got a call from Taenil Auxifur, the general manager of DS Tech, inviting us to visit the store and review their new Rubber Puppy avatar.

Taenil is a friend of Aria Warden, our fellow blogger (and new friend) at Restrained Reviews, so it was with pleasure that we accepted the invitation.

The DS Tech Rubber Puppy takes root in Alexie Birman’s K9 gear, which she open-sourced when she closed shop two years ago.

That said, some serious work is added to the original package. While the original was an ear and muzzle set, the DS Tech head is a full hood, with only eye slits.

This is intended to reflect the reduced view the puppy gets through a detailed puppy-play HUD.

The detailed owner’s manual is a must-read to understand some of the unique features of this avatar.

One striking example is the word command system : the puppy learns verbal commands which, once learned, unlock extra features.

This is a new item, and features and accessories are being developed as we speak. DS Tech is definitely a store to keep an eye on.

lelo:
Ok it’s high time we did some puppy play again, so Taenil’s call came just in time.

The outfit looks good, even if it’s a bit black on black, but as usual the real beauty comes from within.

And within means the scripting this time, the owner has two forms of control, the usual collar click commands, including the usual lock, timer and leash stuff, but also some play things like toys and treats.

The second way is the more “normal” way : by voice commands, and here the fun and in-depth role playing starts, you have to train the pup to understand human, which will take some time so better prepare for that.

At first the pup will only get meaningless periods and comma’s, but over time 20 commands can be taught to the pup.

The pup itself has a rather amazing HUD to control it’s contact with the outside world, it can bark, sniff, emote... all with a simple touch of a HUD button.

The pup also has to work on it’s stamina or the eyelids in the HUD will close after some playtime, which only a good sleep can restore.

This is one of the most realistic puppy simulators i’ve seen yet. Be warned, this is full immersion puppy play.

Ohh and you will love to hear that more additions to the world of the DS Tech puppy is on it’s way, happy playing.

Other Blogs : The Maurers

One surprise we never tire of is finding new sites pointing to us.

Not all blogs have to do with commercial activity.

The Maurers, Diomita and Jenny, share their adventures in SL with the world.

New subs, rubber mares... I’m not going to sum up, I’m going to link to it and let you discover it for yourself :)

Latex Web Inc. - Dark Faith

Deirdre:
Introducing a spectacular new outfit by Latex Web, this is Dark Faith. Not that I mean that their other outfits aren’t spectacular, you understand.

The big cloak and big headdress may remind of you the Norse goddess, Hela - the Jack Kirby-Marvel Comics interpretation, at least. I don’t know if Hela is supposed to look like a seven foot-tall fetish model in the old tales.

Dark Faith is apparently intended for busty goddesses. No less than seven different implant applicators are included.

Neither lelo nor I knew there were so many brands : BitTits, eCorp, Icon, Lolas! (natural and push-up!), Universal and VS.

I adore the cloak.. the semi transparent plus shine look is just beautiful. Same for the mask!

The headdress is awesome, and I’m wearing it here with the Latex Web hairsticks - no such a thing as too much :)

I even dyed my hair black for this shoot, and it looks pretty awesome with the accessories.

This is a full outfit, lacking only boots. The top and bottom are available in all layers, so if you want to wear a green catsuit underneath, nobody can stop you ;)

lelo:
It had been a while since we last visited Darkadia and boy did things change.

Ok the bad news first, well to some of you, the Le Fétiche club is gone.

On the upside, more room for Darkadia itself and the club took quite a bit of lag with it.

While we were having a look around and a very nice chat with some of the residents, we saw a big new sign in the Latex Web shop.

Mistress was totally taken by the Dark Faith outfit, though to me the spikes look a bit frightening, i’m a rubberdoll after all. *winks*

HybridZ - Atemkontrolle

Deirdre:
As you may (and I didn’t) know, Atemkontrolle is “breath control”, and this is what this cool new mesh avatar by HybridZ is all about.

As I’m sure all you kinky kitties know better than to breathe through long tubes in RL, Second Life is the very safest place to play with breath.

The avatar, then, is a smooth pillar of latex with a discreet tube leading to a hand-held device (imaginative roleplay types will come up with a better name than “handbag”).

The hood looks like a pump-up latex one, and the whole effect is very good, if a little eerie. Oh, and the walk is great : a perfectly suited geisha shuffle.

The colors are sold separately. Lelo is modeling flesh, then black; Atem is also available in cyan, orange, pink, purple, red and white.

We hear that more mesh goodness is on its way from HybridZ; do visit the new and improved store and have a look around, it’s worth the trip.

lelo:
Guess who started using Mesh? yep, you guessed right, the girls from HybridZ and they went all the way, not just a piece of clothing but a full AV.

As you might expect from a full Mesh AV there aren’t that many parts in the kit, the mesh outfit itself, a full body alpha, the RLV control, a breath particle dispenser and the AV shape.

The full body alpha is fun for next Halloween, makes for a great ghost outfit.

The RLV control prim covers the mesh head and is invisible, a very smart solution to make the mesh klickable.

The menu is kept very simple and simple is good, direct control buttons for all the usual RLV options, including of course a owners function, to give your owner access to the menu.

The included AO works great with the outfit the poses are very submissive looking and especially the walk matches the look of the outfit perfectly.

The supplied shape should make sure that no bits stick out, though the mesh also works great with my own shape.

So great step into mesh by HybridZ, i’m dying to find out what they will come up with next, seems the sky is the limit now.

But for now, get into the latest trend in full body confinement, ohh and if you want a less intimidating look there is also a doe AV in full mesh.

NV Corsetry - Envy and Ordained

Deirdre:
We saw a notice go by a few weeks back with our old friend Lexie’s name on it, mentioning a new corset store, NV.

We dropped by the elegant, classy store and were pleased to meet the owner. We had a fun chat at his workshop, and were invited to pick a few items for review.

The gorgeous black leather of Ordained immediately caught my eye; this is some of the best leather textures (yes, more than one) on a prim item I have ever seen. In fact, here's a closeup.

Fitting any prim corset in SL is a challenge, but the script included in the NV definitely make things a lot easier.

I’m wearing the full Ordained outfit here, nice top and shrug with prim cuffs, plus good pants (they had cuffs too but they displaced my Prestige.. capital sin!).

This is a very promising store by an experienced designer.. we’ll definitely keep an eye open for the new developments.

lelo:
Another name joins the ranks of corset makers in SL, Khurt is going to try and surpass Rosal, good luck, competition is always good for quality.

The texture on these corsets is very good, but they do suffer the usual problems you get with prim corsets.

On the upside these corsets come with one of the best sizing options yet, you can re-size every direction at once or do it by the separate axis.

And when you have found your perfect fit you can save it for later use, how's that for ease of use.

We went for the full outfits, adding in the case of Envy some great boudoir style underwear and to finish your burlesque look you get a nice prim skirt.

Ohh, almost forgot this part, but his "wear this to unpack" bag is a stroke of genius.

CorinS Fashion - BossHoss and Catwoman

Deirdre:
We hadn’t visited Corin’s in a while - a dangerous thing ;) The store changed layouts in the few months since our last post.

And as usual, Corin’s been busy making nice new outfits. I’m wearing BossHoss, an awesome latex cowgirl look built around Corin’s awesome latex jacket.

There are resizer scripts in all the prims and they’re easy enough - one is the usual 1%, 5% and so on, the other (in the hat, for example) is bigger +, bigger ++ .. you shouldn’t get too confused ;)

The chaps look more like a garter belt and stockings set to me, but let’s face it, we’re not really worried about the wind or horsehide burns in SL.

If a ponytail looks suitably western to you with the hat, it’s Sirena’s excellent Denna hair I’m wearing in the second pic. (Making sure you can see the outfits we model dictates more than a few of my hair choices.)

The BossHoss Latex Set I’m wearing here comes in black, but the jacket is available in black, blue, purple, red, pink and white.

lelo:
*sits on a moon lit rooftop and licks her paw, purring softly*

Oops, this outfit really puts you in a cat's mood, well it does with me.

After some time unboxing and sorting through the new folders you can start wearing this lovely outfit.

All you need to add are some good looking boots, but all the rest is included.

First of all you will find the lovely catmask with it’s prim ears. Next to the prim ears you will also get a prim belt, a whip and pointy nails in 3 sizes.

In the cloth layer department you will find a bra, panties, a breast harness, pasties and legging, all in most available layers.

Corin also includes the Peidra semi transparent smoky catsuit in the set, just in case you want to show some more tanned skin.

This might not be our first catwoman but with the nails and all the options, it's one of the best till now.

List of blogs is no go

Well, the poll results are in: 73 in favor, 10 against.

I think the list of SL blogs will go in that huge bin of cool-but-not-quite-enough projects.

But all is not lost! Kitty Lalonde was kind enough to point us to an existing - and quite big and comprehensive - SL blog list : Blogging Second Life

The blogs are separated in lists by topics, with a large sub-section of stores and creator lists.

This is a huge undertaking, as I had imagined, and quite a few people are working on it.

I was lucky enough to catch Cajsa Lilliehook and Evelyn Hartshon, two of the prime movers of Blogging SL in-world, and bounced some of my ideas (searching and sorting and so on) off of them (bonk!).

To sum up, yeah it might be cool, but there hasn’t been a lot of demand.

Also, we learned something interesting. Many fashion blogs don’t directly highlight one outfit as we do, but rather build whole looks from varied items - “look of the day”, Cajsa called it.

Well, I say “learned” and I should really say “were reminded”. When we were on the fashion feeds, I did notice that many posts were of that kind.

So. A difficult project, low demand.. while I agree with the people who think it would be a cool thing to have, I think it would be too much work to make.

We’ll find something else cool and interesting to fill our second lives.. stay tuned ;)

Powers of Creation - Nurse Florence

"Doctor Doctor, gimme the news I got a
"Bad case of lovin' you
"No pill's gonna cure my ill I got a
"Bad case of lovin' you
Robert Palmer, “Bad Case of Lovin’ you”

Deirdre:
I had this in my closet for some weeks now, but it’s still in the “New” area at POC so we’re good ;)

This versatile outfit is Nurse Florence, by Powers of Creation. It’s available in Blood (the color!), pink, white, and a very good medical green.

I am pretty impressed by the number of versions of this little dress. There are no less than six different tops! Closed (worn here), then one, two, three, four buttons undone, and an eye-popping “too tight”. All of these in all three top layers.

But it’s not just the top. There’s a panty-revealing “too tight” bottom, a closed, and a version to wear with the skirt prim-part.

Speaking of which, that accessory has the first double-click menu I’ve ever seen in SL. Don’t say mama Deirdre never gave you good info :)

Add some white or contrasting heels, and go minister to the sick.. or the naughty ;)

lelo:
It was high time we visited the master of high gloss latex again and find out what’s new.

Kai conveniently has all the new stuff at the front of the store, making our job a lot easier.

So what’s new except for the Nurses outfit:

First there are the buckled garters in black, blood, gunmetal, midnight, pink, purple, red, white and wine, for 150 l$, i just love the look of these.

Next there is Sexy Sue, as shown in our third picture, available in black, blood, chocolate, darkgreen, gunmetal, midnigh, pink, red and wine for 250 l$, which include gloves, stockings, a minidress and a torselett.

Finally you will find sheer sin, Jessa a fifties looking lingerie set in amber, amethyst, diamond, emerald, onyx, rosequartz, ruby and sapphire for just 300L$.

So give PoC a look, it’s worth it and also check out the discount on the back wall, you never know what you might find there.

Lady Anne's - Yes, Mistress

Deirdre:
“Yes Mistress” by Lady Anne is a pair of matched (although sold separately) outfits, one for the domme, one for the slave girl.

The domme version comes with a quite a number of interesting parts.

Four tattoo skins provide a full latex catsuit with varied face options : open eyes and mouth (worn here), open-face hood, eyes only, and full coverage. The face shown is a winter pale skin.

If you like the mistress-doll look, you’ll find some latex “hair” to complement your hood. A prim latex mini-skirt is also included.

Very good knee-high buckled boots (v1-friendly with full invisi prims), an underbust corset, garter belt, gloves and stockings.. even without the skin you’ll be dressed to impress.

Not enough? How about a 26-prim shiny black strapon, and some anatomically correct “underwear”? How about all that for 199L$ ? ;)

This is a generous kit for any beginner domme - just add a whip and you’re there.

lelo:
The “girl version” of Yes, Mistress, i’m wearing uses the layer system of SL as it was intended.

The underwear layer gives you a brownish, chocolaty, colored catsuit, with sheer panels in the right places.

The pants/shirt layer add some modesty cloth strips and the jacket layer adds an nice chest harness.

Anne kindly added the best freebie bondage gear by Dari’s haus to the girl version of the kit, making it an instant bondage bunny dream.

Finally there are the boots which bind the Domme and girl version together, aka they are the same. *winks*
