Ævi Líf – Eternal Life

I feel it’s important to point out that most Scandinavians, or Nordic even because it includes Iceland, during the Viking age… weren’t Vikings. They did make blood sacrifice in honor of the Norse gods, yes, it definitely was a rough time during the Middle Ages but most people weren’t savage warriors however; they were farmers and fishermen and merchants. When iron was put to use in farming, production went up and land became scarce and some people decided to set sail to other countries to raid and plunder in order to make a living. They went ‘viking’ and they gave a name to the entire Nordic poplulation that lived during that time. Ok ok you say, so what am I blogging?

I’m blogging some amazing creations that have been released for this round of Men Only. The beautiful tattoo is by CORAZON, the kilt by L’Emporio & PL and if you look close enough you can see face scratches by NoRush. I’m blogging them again later, and closer, in another picture just because they look amazing as far as scratches go.

Gone Shopping

Even though the Christmas holidays officially start December 25th Norwegians kick off Christmas in style on December 24th, on Christmas Eve. The stores all close at noon and following tradition people then attend an afternoon church service and after the church bells ring Christmas at 5 pm it’s time for family and friends to gather for Christmas Eve dinner and the opening of presents.

MYSA helps us count the sleeps left until Christmas with the ‘Sleeps ‘Till Christmas’ sign. It’s an interactive Advent Calendar; click the date and the little tree moves! Available in 3 different colors, two versions included – Group Only and Everyone permissions.

The Lapointe & Bastchild Jett Chinos are available in Jake, Gianni, Geralt, Slink, Legacy and AES sizes. Include both regular and cuffed versions.

Merry Christmas with the Carol Snowmen from CHEZ MOI! Touch it to display the sound menu and some random Xmas sounds will play – you can set the volume and frequency.

Replenish Your Soul

I love this lodge so much! The Oillala Mountain Chalet by DaD is at FaMESHed this round. Two floors with ample space. A large living area with a stone fireplace to keep you warm and built-in shelves to decorate with your favorite items. Two other rooms on the ground floor, one with a fireplace as well and a open room, near the stairs. Upstairs has two spaces, one with fireplace to use either as bedroom or another common area. Throughout you get a combination of dark wood and stones, with beautifully detailed flooring and beams. Spend the days and nights outside on the front or back porch sipping the hot beverage of your choice. The Chalet has a footprint of 24.5×20.5 and is 107Li out of the box. Copy / Modify.

The Gooseberry Mailbox by Tuesdays that has previously been exclusive to the Gooseberry Estate is now released to the public at the FaMESHed November round. This mailbox is multi-purpose with a texture change hud for the metal and wood parts. It will also allow you to put in an address and has been scripted to work with Casperlet specifically though you can use any rental system.

Elms are stately and majestic trees that are an asset to any landscape. Elms are loved for their graceful, stately shape, with branches like spreading fountains, and green leaves that turn gold in fall. You can find The Little Branch’s Elm Tree v2 at The Mens Dept.

Ride

Always remember, your focus determines your reality.

George Lucas

Let’s focus on that sweet ride first. It’s the [amc] GT3. I’ve blogged it before but you know, [amc] don’t mass produce vehicles, they don’t have a new car out every month heck not even every other month, and so I wanted to give one of their previous releases some more attention. Most of us understand that creating high quality items takes time and I always prefer quality over quantity. I eagerly anticipate their next release!

If you want to focus on me next that’s fine because I’m wearing a new release from Nero. The Akane Shirt is available at this round of Cosmopolitan. This is a solid color shirt with stand collar and assymetric hem. The shirt is compatible with Jake (shown on me), Legacy and Gianni male mesh bodies. The fatpack offers 12 shirt colors. I’m wearing jeans and low tops from Lapointe & Bastchild and sunglasses from BONDI.

Wearing:

  • Nero – Akane Shirt @ Cosmopolitan (through October 16)
  • BONDI . The Sublime Glasses
  • L&B * JAKEfit* Swear Boss Jeans
  • L&B * JAKEfit* Swear Old School Low Tops
