Menswear Fashion Week, June 10-18 2016

So if anyone of you have been wondering what Fordis has been doing all spring, here's your chance to see the amazing set he has created for the MWFW 2016. Let me give you a clue with an old movie quote: "Parigi, as the multilinguals say".

Here are three random thoughts that struck me when I visited the event yesterday and also dropped in at the the fun SL Radio Opening party with DJ Thorn and Esme.

1. My ass is - as always - too fat for Gabriel-pants, but I refuse to change it because it is perfectly perky and plump.

2. Yasum, which is a new brand to me, makes interesting attire in leather.

3. Kilts are naturally always haute couture, I am so going to drop in at Ohiomike's store, Ohio Kilt's, to see what he has been working on.

You can read all about the event here Siren Productions: MWFW 2016 (url), but here is a bit from the press release for this year's event:

"Siren Productions & SCALA along with Designing SL, Dope Magazine, ECLIPSE Magazine, L’HOMME, MENStuff, ModeLS Magazine, SL Live Radio welcome you to Menswear Fashion Week 2016 June 10th-19th, 2016!

Over The Rainbow

I got my first inkling that something was afoot three days ago, when Tomais told me to add the timeslot to my events calendar and asked me to make sure that I would be there. Then two evenings ago Hottie B spilled the beans and told me what was being planned.

Once I had been able to process it, I was very moved by the fact that this special tribute for Ars was occurring, and I am certain that my Ars would have been so also.

During Ars all to few years in Second Life he put a lot of time, energy and passion into the music industry here and I know he always tried to support the new DJ's who were emerging. I will most certainly be there with all - or most - of my family. Please take the time to join us, if you are able.

P.S. I hear through the grapevine that Hottie will be joined by The Disco Biscuits, i.e. JJ Goodman, Bambi Flores, Fordis Flores and Cupric Router.

Pride 2015 - Day 2, The Pride Parade

Franny Dean had outdone herself again. There were something like 73 floats and balloons/blimps in this years Pride Parade, some improved from last year but many new ones too.

The parade is always a highpoint for me, I simply love them! This year there were some initial problems to get the floats and blimps to rez due to lag, but nothing major or unexpected considering the amount of avatars that had assembled on the East and Main sims.

Sadly enough many of the floats went on by empty, so finally I could not control myself anymore but had to jump on. I am a hands-on guy and cannot stand and watch. Please don't bash me for only showing mostly pictures of myself in this post.

Cruising with Ⓕoгđιş

It was on the eve of my 2,999th day in SecondLife when Fordis decided that I was now old enough to visit the gay leather scene.

Although he is only 916 days himself, he was quite protective until he started hitting on two rough and tough guys sitting in a booth close by discussing sconces. From then on all his blood went to his "other head" and he forgot all about me... so I was free to cruise on my own.

Duo Rezday Pictures by JJ Goodman

The famous photographer JJ Goodman, my brother and friend, attended the Duo Rezday Bash on Saturday.

JJ was there because he is family and friend and had no obligation to take pictures, but he did so anyway... which I am grateful for, as I and the rezday boys were to busy with other stuff.

Thanks for the pictures JJ, as always you manage to make us all look wonderful!
