Valentine's Day is over but the Starlust Valentine's Hunt continues through February 22nd! Besides, every day should be Valentine's Day if you're with someone (my someone told me to say that) and there are plenty of prizes in this hunt that you will be able to use and wear long after the pink candy heart season has passed. If the item is credited below, it's a hunt prize!

Yes, Schadenfreude's items get their own gloriously ridiculous photo (though the skin is still the Polar prize). The animation built into the pasties has to be seen to be believed. Bonus: there is a lighthearted Satan theme on some of the underthings. There are lots of options to select from -- choose between different buttflossings, pasties and tassels. How can you go wrong, really?

Cheers,
Mako

2nd annual Starlust VD hunt begins TONIGHT!




OH it'll be a hoot!! All you have to do is go to the motel lobby at Lloyd (here) and grab a super awesome HUD. Click that sucker, attach it and then go about trying to follow the hints to find the 14 pieces of a heart that are hidden around the Starlust sims!! It's not easy but it's also not really super hard either - especially considering that there's the I <3 The Starlust update group for you to receive support and heckling from on your hunt journey! After you've found all 14 pieces the HUD works like a magic super awesome key that unlocks all the gift boxes the wonderful Starlust vendors have put out in their shops for you!!

Horstian Wildlife

Greetings from the snowy land of Horst. I was wandering around and ended up raiding the FreeStyle trailers. There are tons of freebies to be had and it's a great place to hit with a new avatar since shapes and skins are some of the most readily available items. I created this little av out of various products from Horst vendors, including the FreeStyle things.


That's the Tres Blah unicorn behind me, of course -- a great Starlust landmark! What I'm wearing is sort of half-assedly unicorn themed. Starlust knows all about unicorns, after all, and lots of unicorn-ish freebies are available in the motel in Lloyd, but I kept it light. And yes, I'm standing on a giant piece of delicious sushi.

HORSTY CREDITS:
Head pet: Pididdle wearable Unicorn, sweater - Pididdle Unicorn Sweater (Girl), skirt: This is a Fawn (from the Francophile Dress)

FreeStyle items (all 1L or less):
pose: Free Male/Female AO from Roenik Newell, shape: Beautiful Girls by Abra Exonar (Nile), skin: StarLight Mods by Sileny (Perma Happy -- yeah, it has teeth), leggings: Punch Drunk Heart Leggings (Blue)

After morphing back into my usual self, I did some more wandering and couldn't resist snapping a few pics. Butterflies move through the cool, colorful trees by the FreeStyle trailer as the Ticky Tacky giant ice cream cone, the sittable sushi and ZsaZsa's House of Beauty (inside the giant bra) create a uniquely Starlustian background landscape.


Climbing the unicorn's horn. A Starlusty stairway to heaven.


Looking out over Travis, the undeveloped and lesser known Starlust sim. One of Apatia's sheep stops grazing the Horst shore to wonder if I've caught on to the evil plan of virtual world domination he's been brewing in his head (yes, I have).


Have fun out there,
Mako

Dinosaur in Winter


Was passing through Bill earlier and couldn't resist snapping this shot as I was crossing the bridge.
Visit the freezing brontosaurus and warm your hands by the fire here:

Stay warm,

A Small Adventure in Floyd



Greetings from the beautiful mountainside of Floyd! This area, with the shops shaped like giant flowers and plants (bonus: some are dangerous varieties), was one of the first parts of Starlust I ever wandered into, so I have a soft spot for the shops in the shadow of the supersized Starlustland sign.

I was excited to discover a Picnic outpost here on the mountain -- that's new since my last visit. Several pieces of Picnic's signature furniture are available in this location, as well as a few items of clothing. I took a break from mountain climbing and did some light reading on the upper level of the little shop.


Further exploration led to the discovery of more fun stuff. A sampling of some of the things I found from these fine Floydian vendors:


Star 1A: Big Hangy Tongue by RC Cluster -- pure awesome, and it's animated!
Star 1B: Purply Plastic Bead Necklace (modded to black) by Chaos Lotus (freebie!)
Star 2: All poses shown are from two generous packs of free poses from VPoses (FM 01-04 and FF 01-04)
Star 3: Lace Gloves by Picnic -- these are sold in an inexpensive pack that includes socks
Star 4: Skelly Tights (available in lots of colors, not just black) by Vermillion
Star 5: Braid Crown by Scribble -- this is a really great idea

If you haven't been on the mountain in a while, head over and take a look. The Picnic outpost is a great place to start! SLurl: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Floyd/125/160/55

See you in Starlust,

Greetings from Lloyd!

Hello Starlust! Mako and Rach here -- we are excited to be new members of the Starlust blogging crew. We will be wandering through the lands of Starlust, showcasing what we find.

We're starting in Lloyd, the original sim and home to the Starlust Motel itself. Don't forget that the motel lobby is packed with unique freebies that range from sippable bacontinis to unicorn relics to all sorts of wearables... like these!
On Rach: I <3 Lloyd tee and Split Pea Big Pink Sunglasses.
On Mako: Meat Me at the Starlust shirt from Apatia's Ass-ortment of Tees.


Starlust is full of random animation opportunities. On a pair of poseballs outside Random Fashions on the upper level of the motel, we shared a slightly intimate moment with the motel's poolside elephant. It's still snowing in Starlust but we were impervious to the cold and wore items from several of the fine shops in Lloyd:
On Rach: jeans by Tyranny (Favorite Jeans), shirt by Toastface (Robots Love - Purple)
On Mako: shirt by Schadenfreude (Red Spider Electro-spook)


And, just because we always support lounging on random sittable meat, here is a photo of the two of us relaxing on the hot dog outside the motel. You too can experience some meat slurry down time by teleporting to this location via the SLurl below. Enjoy!


Have fun out there!
Mako & Rach
