Codie and I explored the sim, and all of its glittery goodness, over the weekend and it really is gorgeous.  What’s more, it is filled with snowy plants, trees, gems, candy canes and stockings that you can purchase to decorate your own winter wonderland.  Pieces are as low as L$25 each and are infused with Callie’s usual whimsical style.

My favorite items, so far, are the Happy Head Antlers.  They are available in three styles, each with color change gemstones. I particularly love the style I am wearing here as it is all decked out with candy canes and stockings.  You can find all three at the caLLie cLine mainstore, as well as at Winter Magic.

Be sure to visit Winter Magic and catch some holiday spirit of your own!

I posted today on my “other” blog home, Atomic Valley, about the price of vanity. A pretty performance penny paid, not by the wearers of Anti-Inspection Shields, but by everyone in their vicinity.

Here’s one of the snapshots we used to illustrate the point. Mind you, I’m wearing the shield, but it was Codie who suffered the 90% Frames Per Second loss.  (I’m still a little jealous that she starts at 40+ FPS to start with, no wonder I lag through the floor when faced with one of these things.)

Click over to Atomic Valley for the full story and how you can render Anti-Inspect Shields completely useless in 3 clicks.

Can you believe it’s been a year since we celebrated the Grand Opening of the Rouge Sim? And what a fantastic year it’s been!

Come celebrate Rouge’s First Anniversary TODAY from Noon to Midnight SLT.  We’ve planned an epic gala to mark the event…and we want YOU to be there!

Life, at Rouge, is always a cabaret, so come dressed in your finest burlesque and prepare for an evening of fun, frivolity and fantastic debauchery.

DJ Asreal Hax gets the party started at Noon and DJ Miss Cyberpink, Amanda Shinji, takes over the turntables at 2pm SLT.

At 4pm, Rouge’s own Nexeus Fatale steps to the mic with his signature grooves and DJ Genki Dreamscape turns up the metal starting at 6pm.

Nexeus returns to the DJ Booth at 8pm for an hour of booty shaking to get you all warmed up for the night’s Special Performance Event – SLag Fetish Burlesque presented by Glamouramama Boa and her amazing group of dancers with music by DJ xSaraho Mornington.

Finally, DJ Fine Caliber keeps the party moving right along until midnight.

Twelve full hours packed with the finest DJs and Performers on the Grid!

But, wait! There’s more!

Several of the grid’s most creative minds have donated gifts that will be given away throughout the event. Homes from O-Magine HomeWorks, Raven Prim packages from Raven Scripts, Special Rouge Edition Carmela Bustiers from MichaMi, Special Edition Gypsy Jewelry Sets from Puarangi Designs, Custom Shape Voucher from Hourglass Shapes, Men’s and Women’s clothing and shoes from Truth, clothing from Rose Petal Creations, an unreleased lingerie set from Annyka Bekkers of Blowpop, as well as gifts from Eshi Otawara, Mechanized Life, caLLie cLine and more!

Don’t miss the Event of the Summer!  I can’t wait to see you at Rouge!
