May 19-28 Home and Garden Expo and Prism Furniture
It's the 5th Annual Home & Garden Expo time! I thought I'd show some of the items Prism Furniture has to offer. Prism Furniture by Lilly Juno is so realistic looking. The garden seating comes with at least 10 very cute animated poses, some singles and some for couples. The Peace Fountain has 3 small fountains in the middle of the display that produces a relaxing trickling waterfall sound. The Dashwood desk set is very classy and looked amazing in my home. Great job Lilly. Check out the expo, share in the RFL fundraiser, and see some cool home and garden items. Also visit the Prism area for Lilly's furniture, poses, an outlet store and clothes including the latest mesh fashions by Journey McLaglen.

THORANUA Clothing -Great New Mesh
Visit SL Marketplace here: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/115084?id=115084 or direct link hee: THORANUAhere.
(Anua Difazzio, designer)
Today my friend Belinda Barnes introduced me to her friend Anua who is a designer of many things including this great mesh skirt Bel loves to wear and showed me today. Anua sells her mesh clothes at THORANUA Clothing on the marketplace, but is looking for a new perfect inworld location for her clothing line. The short skirts fall just right and are a great length in a wide variety of colors. Anua was wearing a pretty shirt she made today along with one of Bel's favorite skirts so I took a snap and told her I'd blog it as it really does look great. Bel said she has this particular skirt in almost all the colors and I can see why as it really does hang beautifully. She is multi talented and makes many other things so keep an eye on this one.

Neva River-Explore
Visit here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Neva%20River/83/55/21 or
direct link here: NevaRiverHere
Another beautiful sim owned by Atteris Amarth & Neva Crystall, sim design by talented Wendy Xeno (owner of HuMaNoiD sim), interior design by Neva Crystall. The sim opened last night. At first it doesn't appear to be as large as Humaoid as I didn't find any of the magic doors leading to others worlds to explore, but it's impressively filled with small pockets of wonderment throughout. It seems great care was taken with each selection of things in the sim that I literally wanted to photograph everything I could find. The longer I stayed the more I found I just wanted to absorb every inch and save with pictures.. so here goes. A string of photos. And there is sooo much more than what I will post here. Also mentionable is the very cool rock sound garden area where when you step on different stones you get a different sound, a music box you can wind up and dance on, pose and cuddle areas, and also simply the way the windlights offer varying experiences as they work so well. I mostly stuck on a pinkish tone but on landing they changed to sort of an orange glow that also worked well. I experiemented with others and all were so fun there. Check it out.
Well I have a ton more pics, guess they were just fun to make and will stay in my computer... but go and enjoy for yourself. : )

May's contribution by Fae Varriale's, "Wonderlands" is very fun. At the landing are the beginning of the magic doors and the start of the story with instructions. It is a beautiful, crazy, surreal experience that follows the path of Ellie through different worlds along the trail of her sister and missing father, but you can enjoy the experience yourself. Here are a few pics to get your interested. It's located at LEA6 and the grand opening was yesterday May 4th. Check it out for an awesome explore and when done look at all the other impressive LEA exhibits around.

Culture Shock 2012-May 4th-26th
Visit Here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/CHIC/150/121/6 or direct link here: CultureShockHere.
Chic management is hosting Culture Shock 2012 sponsored by MODAVIA Productions and the sims are packed. I popped in for a few minnutes last night, grabbled a couple of photos and had a quick glance but I had to go real life and now I can't seem to get back in for anything. I guess the busy sims are good for business and the charity, and lines will clear up later since it lasts until may 26th so there is plenty of time to get back. When visiting keep the prims down as they have a barrier where you have to drop prim until you meet their level which I forget what it was. I had on a mesh dress and hair and was able to walk through, but I know art skins are fun and keep the lag down too.
The events boasts 184 store spaces with a minnimum of one new and one exclusive item each. The choosen charity for this event is Médecins Sans Frontières (for the second year).
For a list of vendors and all the details check out the chick management web site here: http://www.chic-management.com/?page_id=1231 or direct link here: CultureShockHere.

"We appreciate all those involved in this project and we consider it a collaborative effort among numerous people inside SL as well as those looking in from the outside. This book is not intended to promote SL, but we seriously view it as a major platform for the creation of innovative machinima.
This is not the definitive voice in machinima, but a collective voice within the virtual filmmaking community that represents many perspectives.
