The Valley (Part 1)

This is the first part of a series of photos done at Silver Sea, a great Sim to escape the Holiday bustle, filled with interesting nooks & crannies. I stuffed my backpack with enough outerwear for an extended stay, again all from Mens Dept, where you still have a few days before the end of 2013's last round. My avi also features the excellent Xmas gift skin from Belleza, which is actually one of three you can find in Belleza notices (Belleza group joiner fee of 250l).

Abandon

Hola, SL Frees people! I'll be bringing you occasional updates on male fashion to complement Jo's excellent coverage and that of Estrellita and her amazing SL Frees team. You guys are lucky to have such a great group of bloggers showing you cool things on a daily basis and I'm pretty excited to be in their company.

Here are some shots I took while wandering through an abandoned building. You never know who or what you will find there...
