Lyckliga Gatan

The caption is inspired by the Stockholm Street backdrop by Minimal that I’m using in this picture. A little piece of the Swedish capital’s ‘Gamla Stan’, which means Old Town, in Second Life. And a song found in my dad’s old record collection; ‘Lyckliga gatan’. It’s a swedish remake of the italian song ‘Il ragazzo della via Gluck’ and the swedish lyrics are about how the old happy street of her childhood is all gone, replaced by concrete and high rise buildings. It was a number one selling hit in both Sweden and Norway in 1967-1968. I’ve added a nice remix to go with my more contemporary picture but also the original, which I hope you enjoy!

Street Food

Street food, I believe, is the salvation of the human race.

Anthony Bourdain

I took a trip to the Asian Pacific Heritage Festival street food fair today and that’s where I took this picture. Their street food fair is a wonderful experience where you can get a little smell of the atmosphere of an actual asian street food market. Not only does everything look yummy, all the food on display comes with a recipe so you can make your own in RL!

Sari-Sari is at the festival with the delicious turon (banana lumpia) on a stick! Included in the pack are bento holdable turon M&F (left and right hands) and a turon plate for both decor and dispenser. Masarap!

ERAUQS is participating at this round of TMD with the Parker Jacket in 11 different options; leather and jogger textures. Wear it with or without the tank. Compatible with Jake (shown on me) and Legacy male mesh bodies.

IKON is also at TMD with the Legend Eyes collection which consists of 25 different eye colors and man, they are all such beautiful eyes! And I believe IKON has got you all covered with Mesh + HUD, BOM and applier eyes.

Rake is a new kid in town, or should I say discerning gentleman? Facial hair for starters and later more stuff, so I’ll definitely give them a follow. I’m wearing their latest mainstore release; the Matt stubble.

Provenance

History can promote sales but if you buy a famous historical house you should darn well make sure you can afford renovations and upkeep. Al Capone’s Miami beach house was saved last year from demolition by a local campaign to preserve the estate after its owner announced he was going to have it torn down in favour of a modern build.

The stunning Palm Ave pool house from La Petite Vie is on sale at this round of Cosmopolitan. A pool house with provenance but at a reasonable price!

There’s pink champagne on sale over at No. 59 for Wanderlust Weekend and if you haven’t been yet you should definitely check out the goods at this round of Men Only before it ends on May 15th.

The Sunshine of My Life

If you’re thinking about creating a new outdoor sitting area for this summer, you’d want to take a look at Dutchie’s Outdoor Lounge Set which is now available at the Dutchie store and marketplace. The sofa comes in 3 sections, each containing a couple’s menu so in total it can seat 6 avatars. The touch menu offers 6 different cushion fabric colors and 4 different wood options. The sofa comes in PG and adult FM, FF, and MM versions. Read more on Dutchie’s blog.

If you want to know if a man is well dressed, look down. His shoes will give you insight to his taste and preferences and much more. I just love my new double monk strap shoes from Lapointe & Bastchild. Sophisticated in appearance, easy slip-off design. A versatile footwear choice, monk strap shoes look great with everything from a suit to jeans and shorts, which ensures they never go out of style. The L&B Swear Gage Monk Strap Shoes fatpack gives you 41 colors including both plain toe and burnished, rubbed toe styles. Optional socks.

An Invincible Summer

In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.

Albert Camus

Would you look at that. I didn’t know when I got dressed today that everything I’m wearing is at Man Cave. Some coincidence! Anyway, the ensemble came together nicely; the tank from Erauqs, sweatpants from Duk and sliders from Gutchie. And I feel good today, yeah!

The Owen Tank by Erauqs is a super comfy tank top in 15 options sold as singles or fatpack with discount. Compatible with Jake, Gianni and Legacy male mesh bodies.

The snug and comfortable James Sweatpants from Duk come in 15 different options; 10 prints and 5 solids, sold separately and as fatpack. They’re compatible with Jake, Gianni, Legacy and Kario male mesh bodies.

The GUTCHI Snake Sliders come in a fatpack with 54 different colors for 12 customizable surfaces. Also available in 4 colorways limited edition packs of only 50 units each. Fitted for eBody Reborn // Slink F // Belleza M 2.0/F // Legacy M/F // Signature M // Maitreya //. I’m wearing them with the Belleza Jake V3. Check them out they look amazing!
