KDC - Paw Mittens

Deirdre:
Some heavy leather restraints for a change : these are the KDC Paw Mittens.

Those thick leather pads should convey a good bondage feeling to your pet.

The leather textures and seams look great, and this is a great example of using mesh and prims together to best effect.

Mesh and alpha means these are not suited to v1 users; as more and more cool toys start using the new features, it will become harder to hold back.

The second pic shows the back of the paw, and the inside part with toe pads.. just so you don’t go thinking lelo sprained something really badly, those are two pictures ;)

You can see Kyra's awesome documentation here :
http://kdc.ethernia.net/docs/doku.php?id=touchbound_system:paw_mittens

So lay your paws on some good puppy AO, and you’ll be all set!

lelo:
Here’s another mesh product from our friends at KDC, waves at Kyrah.

These mittens feature a lot of the things i love about KDC’s products.

First there is the great quality of the design, just that a look at the stitching on them.

Then there is her leather textures, especially the orthopedic, shown in the close up is one of the best i’ve seen in SL yet.

You get a choice of 10 colors for the glove and strap and 7 colors for the metal parts.

Finally there is the TouchBound locking system, arguably the most intuitive locking system in SL. i love it, just point and lock, you can’t get it any easier.

Ohh and when you get your paws, take some time to unpack them, the opening of the package is another little work of art... enjoy..

Bax Coen Design - Prestige Boots Latex

Deirdre:
We’d call this post “hot off the press” for any other designer, as they came out Saturday, but the whole world probably knows about Bax’s latest release, the latex Prestige boots.

As if that’s going to stop us ;)

The Prestige boots have been my favorites from way back, and while we’ve used the patent ankle version with many a latex outfit, this new version is going at the top of my shelf for future photo shoots.

The texture, as with other Bax models, is perfect. The shine and folds suggest thin latex and the boots look stunning from near or far.

The colors are quite varied and should match all outfits save the most psychedelic (hey, here’s a thought : zebra latex!).

And speaking of the sixties, the black boots include a black-and-white vertical split design which is fun and distinctive.

Bax herself told me the colors should match Hugo’s, and the Ghost White matches Elixir’s.

In fact, if you drop by the store, you may recognize the Elixir latex raincoat we featured some time back.

The awesome fitting system is still present in this version, so I was able to paste the cool cryptic string that represents the painstaking fitting session I received at the store from a helpful Bax associate.

The price is not low, but is absolutely fair for the quality of work and generous variety of colors you get in each box. And face it, we’ve all paid more for less fantastic footwear.

lelo:
Bax took her designs into the realm of fetish by making her already famous Prestige boots in latex.

As you might expect the texture is perfect and she smartly took the Hugo colors as her base.

There are 4 color groups each giving you a few color:

- Candy gives you: blue, purple, pink and baby pink.
- Black gives you: black, black & white and a slightly less shiny black
- Red gives you: Venetian, maroon and blood.
- White finally gives you: white, ivory and ghost.

So go for the Candy, that way you get the most bang for your buck and everyone will be wearing black. *winks*

Next to the main color you can customize almost every bit of the boots.

You can also play with the sleeves of the boots, where i wear them up, Mistress doesn’t wear them at all, you also get a left over of the fashion boots, denim sleeves.. *shudders*

The boots have been upgraded to feature the old invisi-prims or the alpha layer, this upgrade is also available for the older leather versions of the boot, updating is painless and fitting the new boots is easy with the most amazing fitting system in SL.

So get them while they are hot.. i know you want them.

Why are the old pics so small?

If you use our blog as a reference - which is totally our intention - it’s possible that while looking up something, you’re going to pre-January 2012 posts and clicking on pictures to zoom.

Instead of the gorgeous large snaps we’ve gotten you accustomed to when you try to zoom, you are now seeing pictures that are only 512 pixels high.

Still far from shabby, but what happened, you ask?

Well.

Blogger changed some things recently. Mostly for the better, I have to admit : the Lightbox way of looking at a posts’ pictures is pretty nice.

But the pictures we upload in Picasaweb are displayed with a link that contains the picture size parameter : /s400/imagename.jpg is the thumbnail, and /s1600/imagename.jpg is full size.

Now what *used* to happen was, a picture with the /s1600/ parameter was *not* resizeable. So you couldn’t see the real size we had snapped, but saw a fixed height.

Removing the /s1600/ was therefore a clever trick (us webgoddesses have our ways!) for a number of years.

But no longer. Since the new updates, a picture displayed without the size parameter shows at a fixed size : 512 pixels high.

So the clever removal of said parameter - for the last 800 posts or so - is shooting us cleverly in the foot.

We’ll slowly go back and fix the pics; it’s an easy if slightly tedious thing to do.

But in the meantime, if you want to see a pic closer, open it in a separate window and add /s1600/ in front of the picture name, and it will appear at the size we intended.

Direct as many angry letters to Google as you want. Please.

Naughty N Nice - After Hours

Deirdre:
We first noticed the After Hours booties at Naughty N Nice’s Rubber Room mall shop, then looking closer, saw the cool matching outfit, which turned out to be just as well-designed as the boots themselves.

While they look a little Lady Gaga-esque to me, (not that there’s anything wrong with that!) they cried mama to lelo, and so here we are featuring them.

The heel-less design is somewhat reminiscent of pony gear, but this is clearly a fashion boot. I love the little knotted laces and jewelry hanging from the buckle.

The shine is excellent, matching the skirt perfectly. The price is also quite reasonable. I’d say run to the store, but careful not to run on the way back ;)

lelo:
After Hours is sold in 3 separate parts, the lovely boots, the shown miniskirt outfit and a pants suit in the same style.

You get a choice of the white or a sheer blouse and we know you love our little hearts but we have a limited supply so we went for the solid white blouse.

The blouse has a prim collar and lovely prim sleeves, where the skirt comes with the prim inserts i love on these short cloth-layer skirts, there are also laces for the corset.

All the prim parts have their own resizer script built in for ease of fitting, though i only had to move the collar slightly, ohh and there is an easy script delete option.

And then there are the boots, the thing that caught my eye in the first place, yes i do see boots that aren’t ballets. *winks*

The heel or better the lack of heel is great, i just love off the wall designs like this.

They fitted me instantly, just needed to pull them up a bit to show all of that lovely “heel”, but if you want to adjust them, there is a lovely HUD with a resizer.

So if you are looking for a sexy little outfit for that perfect first date with a kinky twist, this is what you should go for... at least i would, full latex, ballet heels, chastity, collar, tight corset might give the wrong first impression.

Marianne's Boutique - Estelle Red

Deirdre:
We love Marianne’s reds - last time we featured her (November 2010, where does the time go?) was Paprika.

Estelle is a complete outfit, boots included. The whole thing is no copy no mod yes trans - buy it as a gift or pass it on to a new resident in six months, as you wish.

The boots look good with the dark decorative straps, but they use invisiprims to ensure leg fit.

This is where a mod-copy-no trans version would be more interesting - I do like to fiddle - but it’s the one or the other, I’m not complaining.

Some clever tattoos provide a bit of modesty up top, as this is a wide-open catsuit.

An inexpensive, excellent quality outfit once again from Marianne’s. Drop by the Rubber Room if you want to catch her DJ sets, and tell her Deirdre sent you!

lelo:
Don’t unpack Estelle inside, or you will damage your ceiling for sure. *winks*

The outfit comes with a good looking tattoo layer tattoo, guess that’s how they came up with that name.

The catsuit comes in top and pants layer only and you also get some underwear pasties for the shy at heart.

Finally there are the lovely belted boots, which still use invisi prims but as they are used separately you can always use an alpha layer to hide your feet.

So if you are looking for a sexy catsuit, look no further you found it.. ohh, for now there is only a red version, but as she names the color there is hope for more great colors.

AW Designs - Vervetki Boots

Deirdre:
A very fancy pair of transformer boots from AW Designs, these are the Vervetki.

Lelo would find black ballet boots in a cavern with midnight lighting on, and she immediately spotted these when we swung by Latexia.

I said, sure, sweetie, let’s get you a pair.. but, aha! They also transform into a very elegant pair of high heeled boots.

A distinctive fold above the ankle strap and the two-part upper design mark the Vervetki as one of the fancier fetish boots we’ve seen in a while.

The cool prim elements on the foot, like the little chain and rings under the heel carry over from one version to the other.

You can color darn near every part of these boots, resulting in two-color vertical splits if you like.

That’s more adventurous than conservative little old moi really likes, so I went for the lovely Venetian red all over. Which, not coincidentally, matched the Xonirated outfit from AW very nicely ;)

The boots are fully resizeable, you’ll be pleased to hear. The script is only in the right one - I started adjusting sizes manually before noticing that.

This is not an inexpensive item, but when you consider most stores sell other colors as other items, you’ll see this is in fact a bargain.

And don't forget to visit Adrina's blog : http://www.awdesign.se

lelo:
Yes i know i’m a ballet boot junkie, but hé there are worse addictions. *smiles*

The boots come with a pretty elaborate menu that is controlled from the right boot only.

First on the list is the appearance, containing a good working resizer, shininess, colour and if you want to change the left, the right or both boots.

The coloring can be done by selecting the two halves and selecting a color for each or you can select one of 8 separate parts, hows that for choice.

The next option in the menu lets you select if you want to wear a ballet or a more comfortable style of boot.

Next come the RLV options, including an operators, sounds so much more elegant than owner, selector and a lock and fly/run restriction.

Lastly you will find 3 buttons sending you to her website, online help and a in world help note.

So go get these lovely boots before everyone is wearing them, you get 21 colors in one boot and that’s not counting the mix options.

Hugo's Design - New Releases and Hunt

Deirdre:
There are literally more releases than we can fit in a post from Hugo’s Design this week. We picked a few, and we’ll show you the rest next week!

In the first pic, I’m wearing the Xyx Body 4 with green highlights on black. Sweetheart cutout, finglerless gloves and stockings make this a good continuation of the Xyx line. An open top and bottom version are included, more bedroom than clubwear.

In the second pic I’m modeling Zee, in red. Introducing strategically placed vertical straps, this is another pretty naughty outfit, but I think that by now you’re not expecting blue jeans and fluffy sweaters from Hugo’s.

Aside from this cornucopia of new outfits, Hugo’s is offering a cool little freebie called Stripped, which can be the start of a good slave outfit.

There’s also a hunt going on at the store right now : bits of an outfit are spread all over the place. If you haven’t seen the new layout yet, it’s a fun excuse to drop by.

lelo:
Seems Hugo found a new texture, net latex, never seen it in RL but it is a thought.

First i’m wearing the net cat in black, which comes with or with out a seam. * little red heart is not included.

In the second picture i’m wearing Nanda in yellow, this one gives you a netted or plain latex version.

You also get a catsuit and the top and pants version i’m wearing here, the fingerless gloves are an optional extra.

As with all Hugo’s design the standard options come in the quick on tattoo layer, but you also get all the parts in all the available layers so you can mix and match to your hearts content.

Kinky Comic

Sadly this week no news from the world of SL ponies so here is an fun little comic for your amusement.

It from a while back, 2006 was the last post, but the humor is or was good.

And for you pushy bottoms out there, there is a hidden message in it, see if you can find it.

Enjoy :)

Moyet - Josie Corset

Deirdre:
I’d love to say we received an anonymous tip made of cut-up newspaper words suggesting we visit Moyet - but it was just an IM to lelo ;)

The much-appreciated tip (Thanks Hecate!) brought us to a skybox two kilometers in the air - no horizon at that height, just clouds - with a very clean layout.

We saw some lovely latex, but the thing that grabbed us was this lovely prim corset, called Josie.

The colors are quite distinctive, so it might be a little bit tricky to match them.

The textures alternate between a very good impression of Chanel quilted leather, and grey leather with a good grain you can see from up close.

The quality is quite good, and the price fairly low. It’s not a little black dress, but you can probably find a home for it in your wardrobe :)

lelo:
Guess how got a brand new corset in the mail this week? It still smells new and is stiff as a board, just the way i like them.

The look is great, i especially love the leather texture and the rivets she used.

I’m sure this will be one of the last prim corsets we’ll see, while the mesh corsets will take over in time, this still looks better than the mesh corsets we have seen till now.

The resizing takes a bit of getting used to, and you'd better take a reserve copy just to be safe in case the restore fails.

Ok one down side to this one, no scripts to restrict you more and more or locking stuff, but you get one very good looking corset.

Dari Returns to Second Life

Jaydana (yes, she’s still around) tipped us to a very cool bit of news : Darien Caldwell has returned to SL, after a long absence.

http://slfetishfashion.blogspot.com/2009/05/daris-haus-closes.html

We caught Dari in world and we were lucky enough to have a nice long chat with her. It vaguely started with the intent of being an interview, but it’s a lot longer than you probably want to read ;)

My first question (I’m of the W5 school of journalism!) was why. Why did she really leave, and what brought her back in the world?

While she was indeed concerned with the Lindens’ adult content policy in 2009, the fact is that she was overwhelmed between first and second life and was heading towards a burnout.

She’s determined to avoid that mistake in her new endeavour, a store called [H]arsh.

Dari’s Haus is no more, as she feels the brand has been diluted by the occasional misuse (ie, sale of her free items). Her loyal fans did follow her to the new VIP group, however.

She already has a few items : one for sale, one in the works. And she will take the time to do things right, so don’t expect a ton of new items at once.

Even the existing ones required months learning Blender and perfecting some cool techniques : Dari will be able to offer custom fitting of mesh items (until parametric deform gets here) relatively easily.

So if you’ve missed Dari’s Haus, visit her cool little store, become a group member, buy the new items and join us in welcoming Darien back to Second Life :)

Xena's - LatexHood XT

Deirdre:
We saw this amazing hood at Mesmerize Dungeon - still a terrific place to hang out if you want to do some fetish people-watching.

Lelo dutifully made a note to investigate.. then, not a week later, we ran into Xena herself, wearing the hood. I think that’s a good sign :)

It’s a very cool, very well made sculptie, as you can perhaps tell from the first picture.

Aside from the simple shiny black, excellent color textures can be applied, although the black with just a touch of color looks great.

Xena’s little shop is worth a visit : she has a spinning model of the hood you can see before you buy.

You can also buy mannequins of the same design - the hood is actually a mannequin head. Just the thing to decorate a fetish club!

lelo:
And we thought we had seem them all, but we are glad to bring you some new fetish gear that really caught our eye.

The hood fits me pretty well and i have a big head, at least that’s how it looks to me, though just in case you have some bits sticking out you can always resort to alpha-layers.

The hood can be personalized to your own color wishes, all 13 pieces can be given their own color, but there also is an "all" button for quick changes.

You have 37 colors to choose from, including the most popular POC colors.

The prim parts like the eye bits or the hair tails can be turned on or off, giving you more room to express yourself.

For some play you also get a mouth dildo, which we, as usual, don’t show.

All options can be set from the good looking menu system, she did a great job making this extremely easy to use and readable.

You might expect it and you won’t be disappointed, it does support RLV, ohh and be careful when you let someone weld your hood on, a rescue kit will cost you an extra 200 L$.

Kinky Comic

No pony post this week, but no sweat : here’s a puppy strip!

This is a recent page from http://collar6.com/, a fetish and BDSM comic.

It’s been running for quite a while, so if you start at page 1, you have a lot of reading ahead of you.

This black and white strip is a break from the main storyline, in a lighter, non-preachy tone.

Enjoy :)

Needful Pixel - Food Gags

Deirdre:
We got a call from Ilse Bellic, of Needful Pixel : would we be interested in reviewing some of her things?

Turns out Ilse is a friend of Jaimie Earst, so we said sure, and went to visit.

A lovely surprise was waiting at the shop : the cool little gas station at the corner of two Linden roads which we frequently use as a starting point for motorcycle trips sits right at the shop’s doorstep, and was in fact created by Elke Wylie, the other partner at Needful.

We had a look around, and saw a fair bit of cool stuff, but the latest releases are the ones we ended up picking : the three fun “food” gags : strawberry, lollipop, and cupcake.

I’ll let lelo describe them in detail, but this is just the fun sort of stuff we wish we would see more of in Second Life.

I won’t swear she’s working on it as we speak, but Elke did seem to like my suggestion for a banana gag ;)

lelo
Well after all those clothes it’s high time for some toys, so here are the fun looking gags by Needful PIXEL.

Elke and Ilse took the standard ring gag one step further by adding some fun and tasty items in the mix, those rubber gags do have their own special taste.

As you might expect from a gag like this you get the full RLV options, but as a nice little extra they also are Xcite! compatible, so that should give it a new dimension.

The menu offers you a good help note, which explains all the options you get with this gag, better be prepared for a bit of a study, the options list is pretty long.

For now you have a choice of the shown, cupcake, lollipop or strawberry but rumour has it that more fruit is on its way.

You do have the option to hide the strap while leaving you gaged, so a PG friendly gag at last, no one will think twice when you walk around with a lollipop, though the strawberry and cupcake might take a bit of explaining.

I’m glad, all those cupcakes and lollies make fitting my corset quite a bit harder lately. *winks*

Lady Anne's - Queen of the Night and Mistress’ Heart

Deirdre:
We took our friend Hikari motorcycle riding a while back. She seems to have gotten the bug, because she tipped us to a really spectacular riding sim, Mystic Falls.

Aside from the most amazing covered sky roads I’ve ever seen, the sim sports Lady Anne’s Latex Emporium and Legacy Leathers store, where you can get custom designed MC colors, and a few nice latex outfits.

I’m wearing Queen of the Night, a fun goth-vamp-buckle fetish outfit. The cape immediately cried mama to me when I saw it, and I was lucky enough to win the outfit on the lucky board in the store, so here it is :)

This is a full outfit, with boots and an AO with sexy walk. Fun extras include fangs, poseball pairs for biting rp, and a cool little coffin handbag.

The ankh design is reprised on the chest plate, belt buckle and purse, so maybe Lady Anne was influenced by Anne Rice’s Queen of the Damned.

The boots are mod copy, so take a backup if you decide to resize them a bit.

This is quite a decent outfit for the price. Visit the store, and bring your bike :)

lelo
The Mistress’ Heart out fit comes with a nice mix of prim and cloth layer clothing, there are also boots included in the pack.

The under-layer clothing offers you a fully closed catsuit and the pants and jacket layer shows a bit more skin, like shown in our pictures.

The prim skirt is very simple but of the kind i really love to wear, short and floaty. *smiles*

Sadly the lovely boots suffer of what we call the black on black problem, you must get really close to see the details on them.

Those of you still stuck in the V1 viewer will be glad to hear that the invisi prims are included in the back next to the alpha layer.

You also get a nice paddle with the outfit, but as i don’t have a licence to use one we don’t show it here. *winks*

Ohh and when you are at the store give the trampoline in front of the store a try, works with an AV but on a bike you really get some air time.

Morgan Fenwitch - DIY Mesh Catsuit

We met Morgan at Rubber Room last week, and her catsuit really impressed me.

A closer look revealed the reason : it was a mesh catsuit!

I immediately pounced, and she was nice enough to tell me about it... and allow me to drag her to the studio for an impromptu shoot :)

First, forget running to a store (as I did), because she made it herself. It’s custom-fitted to her shape, and she’s not taking orders.

Morgan said two things : “It’s actually not too hard to make a suit like this.” and “Blender makes it easy with wrapping and subdividing modifiers, but you do need to have avatar mesh to wrap to.”

Well. I think I understood the first.

So drop your modifiers in the blender and get creating :)

Jaimie Earst - Mesh Boots with Esnya and Prima dresses

Deirdre
I haven’t seen any others, so I am going to call them the first ever in SL, okay? Introducing the incredibly awesome first mesh thigh boots from Jaimie Earst.

I’m rapidly falling in love with mesh. When I told lelo “Let’s take our time and make sure these are fitted perfectly”, she was nice enough to not say anything.

So, duh. You can’t edit or adjust mesh clothes - they line up with your bones. So in a few moments, I picked the tightness I wanted (size 2) and I had perfect-fit boots.

Oh sure, they depend on alpha for a cheat.. but they fit the way I *want* my boots to look.

To stop gushing about the boots for a moment, I’ll gush about the Prima minidress, which looks simply awesome.

Excellent shine plus a skirt prim I’d call the best I’ve seen since the one from Drawmachine. I nearly regret not modeling the pink Prima - it looks like a candy apple :)

If all of this isn’t enough to get you to run to Jaimie’s, the red mesh boots are free (until Saturday Jan. 14th, so hurry!)

As a PS, I'm completely satisfied with Phoenix 1.60 so far. So if you were hesitating, go right ahead and dive in.. the water’s fine.

lelo
Look at the knees, the knees, look at them, i mean really look at the knees.... now this is what we were waiting for, next get group chat working and we are cooking with gas. *winks*

Jaimie gives you 5 sizes of the boots so they will fit your thighs, yes that’s still a little draw back with mesh, no resizing, but then no long fitting sessions as well.

The Alpha layer comes in 2 sizes, but if you need more i just point you to last fridays post.

Ok so we love these boots, but let's not forget the matching dresses she offers as well.

Mistress is wearing the Prima dress which is a lovely latex dress which is fully closed in the front, but almost fully open in the back, people will love to see you go...

I’m wearing the Esnya dress which has the same open back but comes with a nice low bust line, and the amazing prim breast cover which is fully adjustable.

Both skirts have a mesh skirt cover, which just snaps into place.

So run and get your favorite color and the one you like a bit less, and.. ahh just get them all, she’s practically giving them away.

Avatar Alpha Masks - Imnotgoing Sideways

Do you know, I thought something like this would be out there, because it’s so useful and it makes so much sense? I had a peek on Marketplace, and sure enough, there it was : Avatar Alpha Masks, by Imnotgoing Sideways.

Included in the kit are the alpha masks, ready to use (36 as I write this) and textures, suitable to save as tga and edit with Photoshop or similar.

They’re free, so I encourage you to mail Imnotgoing some cash if you find these useful.

She updates the box every month or so on marketplace, a little less at the shop.

So, if there’s a shape you need and you’re not feeling creative, have a look now and again.

Imnotgoing is very nice, and answered a question in such a clear way I’ll just quote her :

Deirdre Young: ah, the negative numbers on the feet alphas.. do they mean something?

Imnotgoing Sideways: Yeah. 0 is the seam between the leg and the foot in the UV map. Positive numbers go up the legs for boots. Negative numbers leave more visible foot for open shoes. (^_^)

The textures are covered by the very cool Creative Commons Attribution license so you can share or adapt them, but you should make it clear she made the originals.

Now go fix your feet ;)

Graves - The Cat

Deirdre
A new-ish release from Graves (I’ve had my eye on it for a while now!), this outfit is simply called The Cat.

The Cat includes a bunch of good prim parts : goggles, gloves, arm straps, zipper, belt, whip, collar.. and the cutest lil' ears :)

The clothes layers are all there, but you can wear the catsuit and mask on the tattoo layer and save all that.

Surprisingly, there is no closed zip version of the catsuit. Guess this is not really an outfit meant for stealth ;)

Textures look great from up close, dark from everywhere else. At their smallest, the goggles fit me pretty well, but I have a smallish head - it shows when I’m not wearing hair.

So a great, inexpensive outfit considering all that you get - just add heels and you’re there.

Aaaannnd... there is in fact a bowl of milk included.

Here kitty kitty kitty... i’m sure i’ll get into trouble for this but what’s life without some thrills. *puts down a blow of milk and runs*

It had been a while since we had a look at Graves so it was high time to give the store a look.

The Cat just left from the entrance caught our eye and before i knew it, Mistress was purring at my side.

It is hard to place this outfit, the collar says sub, the zipper says sexy, the ears say sneaky and the whip says domme.

Well all added it says yummy to me, keep bringing them on Jackie, we love your outfits.

Red Devil - The Red Devil

Deirdre
Let’s start the new year on a naughty foot (or cloven hoof) : Introducing the Red Devil outfit by Red Devil - what took them so long, eh? ;)

It’s a handsome fetish outfit, with brilliant color and good shine. The devilish details (horns, tails and wings) are well executed.

Add a suitable demon skin and you’re there - Lelo looks way too wholesome ;)

The front sports a yellow abstract flame-like design, possibly symbolizing heartburn - no, I kid, it’s a nice touch.

The fetish demonette wouldn’t be complete without her hooves, so a nice pair of ballets are included.

They’re red and shiny and look good, but don’t look for an exact match to the stockings - we know by now how tricky that is.

So drop by the Red Devil and pick up the Red Devil, and go win some contests ;)

lelo
Fun little number tonight from Dementia at Red Devil, and yes those are ballets. *winks*

But first things first, you get a few lovely options with this outfit, like the option to wear this with or without bottom, sorry guys, our rating and all... *winks*

The top comes in all layers including an applier for lolas! implants, now isn’t that a nice extra.

To complete the devilish look you get the horns, wings and a choice of 2 different tails.

Ohh, and to replace the hooves you get some very nice ballets with a lovely heelless design.

One final thing, just in case you don’t go for the devilish things in life, Dementia has a lot of new gear in her store, better check it out.
