I&#8217;ve been debating how to handle the mesh body vs classic avatar conundrum, and I&#8217;ve come up with what I hope will be a good solution. Tags are all well and good, but I don&#8217;t have a visible tag cloud on the blog, so I thought it would be a good idea to put the requirements for each post in coloured text or images at the top of the post. I&#8217;ll put both in this post, so you can see how it looks. Let me know which you prefer!<\/p>\n<p>The text-only version &#8211;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">&#8211; No mesh body or body parts required. This one works for classic avatars!<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #800080;\"> &#8211; No spend look. Completely free!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The image version (I may change these to be smaller and less obtrusive) &#8211;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/nospendnomesh.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"143\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now that&#8217;s out of the way&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Today we&#8217;re going Goth, because I like to choose a theme sometimes and see what I can do with it. We&#8217;re visiting three places:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maps.secondlife.com\/secondlife\/Gallii\/137\/113\/34\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Free Dove<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/maps.secondlife.com\/secondlife\/Solaria%20Isle\/114\/207\/25\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shop FreeStyle<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/maps.secondlife.com\/secondlife\/Snatch%20City\/120\/192\/30\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sn@tch mainstore<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/gothgoodies01.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"623\" \/><\/p>\n<p>First up: The Free Dove. Mar picked up this cute little velvet dress and tights set by Stellar in the women&#8217;s clothing section there. And in the women&#8217;s footwear section, she found these colour-change (soles and straps) boots by Sn@tch. The bracelets (also by Sn@tch) are at Shop FreeStyle.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/gothgoodies05.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"741\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <em>awesome<\/em> (and a bit scary; no picking your nose or scratching your bum with these on!) nails are by Gorgeous Dolls, and are in the accessories section of The Free Dove. The ring can be found in the &#8216;freebie TV&#8217; in front of the freebie wall at the Sn@tch mainstore. (I tinted the gemstone a bit more purple, to match the outfit.)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/gothgoodies03.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"624\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As well as being scarily sharp and long, the nails also come with an amazing HUD. You can colour each nail individually by clicking it on the HUD, and there are <em>tons<\/em> of options to choose from. Here&#8217;s a screenshot of the HUD itself:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/gothgoodies06.jpg\" width=\"601\" height=\"431\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The necklace is a <a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.secondlife.com\/p\/Edenia-Free-gift-pentacle-necklace\/6926663\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">freebie from Edenia on Marketplace<\/a>. It&#8217;s tintable (it&#8217;s black when you buy it, but edit it and you can change it to any colour) and really easy to resize using the manual sizing tools. The lipstick is from a huge pack of freebie lippies by 7 Deadly s{K}ins at The Free Dove.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/gothgoodies04.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"604\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll find the curly lashes (by BKB) on the second floor at Shop FreeStyle. Look for the orange upward-pointing arrow just inside the door to teleport to the second floor! The hair by Adoness is also there (although I didn&#8217;t make a note of which floor that was on &#8211; oops!)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sl4nowt.com\/blogpics2\/gothgoodies02.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"676\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Finally, the skin is by Avi-Glam and can be found in the skins section at The Free Dove. Please note that the purple eyeshadow is <em>not<\/em> included with this skin! I&#8217;d originally planned to blog that, too, since I picked it up in a hunt gift at The Free Dove, but when I went back there &#8211; just hours later! &#8211; the hunt items had been removed. It turned out that was a leftover from the December hunt!<\/p>\n<p>Total spend: Nothing! This look is completely free :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, peeps!
