The Karma of India Nadeau

Pose Fair 2012

April 19, 2012

All shopping events, expos, and fairs have their own unique draw and flavor.  These organized affairs allow designers to come together in one area to show off their new creations, and allow us a first look at some new exclusive content that hasn’t yet been placed in store.

I really enjoy these events, but I admit, I am so directionally challenged it’s not even funny!  I find myself getting lost in even the best laid out places.  I usually have to re-orientate myself with the landing point and familiarize myself with what direction I have already explored.  Anyway, aside from my own personal compass being wacky, the layout of this year’s fair was well done and the design was a nice expression of artistic minimalism.  So, whenever I was getting my directions mixed up I could easily cam around and see things clearly without obstruction.  It also helps to have the handy dandy list of SLURLs at your fingertips!  This is the third Pose Fair and so far the largest at 120 vendors!

Needless to say, that is a lot of poses to take in.

The fair began April 15th  and will continue until April 30th.  There is also a photo contest going on for fair shoppers to showcase their skills.  Just upload your images showing off your Pose Fair items to the official Flickr Group.

Now on to my first purchase at the fair.  I chose this camera pose and prop set by {what next}.   The poses are contained by the camera props.  There are five of them, and you simply wear one of the five cameras and you are posed!

I’m Not Just Your Ordinary Jane

March 3, 2012

March Mesh Madness has begun, and the event is currently in full swing on FATEisland.  A number of talented mesh creators have some amazing items to display, and hopefully I will be able to get a few more posts about it published before it ends.

I am in awe of many of the creations showcased at MMM.  First of all, as someone who is struggling to learn the 3D modeling program Blender, I appreciate the agony many of these artists must have gone through learning their respective design programs of choice.  To be able to create a realistic looking dress out of a cube  or two is mind blowing.

One dress I particularly loved for its clean design, popping color, and somewhat bohemian feel, is this Emily Dress by Jane.  The top portion is loose and free, and the skirt has just enough flare at the bottom.

The jewelry set and hair are also mesh and can be found at MMM as well.  The jewelry pieces, by Maxi Gossamer of MG, are fantastic quality and design, as well as very affordable.  You can buy one color of the Giselle Opal Set, or purchase all the colors in the fatpack.  I loved this new long hairstyle by Magika, and it comes with a convenient color change HUD and a mirrored version of the style.

Let’s Go for a Sunday Drive

February 26, 2012

Spring is coming (I think) and I felt an overwhelming need to get creative on a project I had been thinking about.  I haven’t written too much about it in previous posts (um, actually nothing but I added a page about it).  My partner and I, Zaap, created a brand called N² Pixel Studio for our photo studio and projects that we partake in together.  I haven’t bothered creating another blog for it because it is just a hobby thing.  I suppose one day I may need to create another site for if we make more items or take on other projects under the brand, but for now I guess I will just be using my own blog for N² Pixel Studio promotions.

So, now onto the shameless self promo.

I have loved fashion and clothes for years, but one major thing that inspires me is fabric.  It is fun for me to check out different textiles and imagine the possibilities the fabrics can be used for in real life.  I am physically unable to sew, but I can still visualize what I would make.

Second Life textures are also fun for me to look at–I check out the Marketplace often to find inspiration.  Recently, I found some textures made by Alex Bader of Studio Skye.  All the textures I have bought from here are exceptionally well done.  Studio Skye is one of my top picks for texture artists.

The floral textures I found inspired the Sunday Drive Dress I created.  I utilized two texture patterns in various colors, and I modified some colors to suit what I wanted.   The dress is mesh, and it comes in four sizes.

To view anything created by N² Pixel Studio, we have a Marketplace presence: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/57565

Like A Kid On Christmas

January 30, 2012

I was like a kid on Christmas when I logged in to SL this evening to find some blogger goodies from coldLogic, the new brand I featured in my last post.  It was something I was not expecting, and I feel very honored to have been allowed an even bigger peek at coldLogic’s upcoming collection.  I sense some big things from this new designer brand, and I really think I have found a new favorite store (once it opens).

I just wanted to highlight an ensemble I put together quickly; I was eager to blog it.  I have another look in mind to blog for next time, so watch for it in the upcoming days!

So, in keeping it short and to the point…photo and credits below.

Sunday Was Lazy, And So Was I

September 4, 2011

Sorry, this is not a mesh post!  Haha!  I have only tried a couple of mesh pieces, and I think it is a great addition to SL.  But…my mesh posts will have to wait for now!

I took some photos today with the intention of getting them up in a blog quickly, but  I began editing (playing) in photoshop and got lost in trying different effects.  I also wasn’t really in a writing mood.  The funny thing is, when the photos are complete I then want to post them as soon as they are done–but I don’t like posting them anywhere  without the blog entry ready.  Thus, I usually get myself to then write the blog.

I will keep this short and get to the fashion goodies!

I was in a purple mood again and bought the Careah dress from Lelutka.  I really love it!  The sculpted parts are fantastically made and textured, and the skirt is just the perfect length to have an elegant flow when moving.
