There’s even more to explore in the 6pi sim (featured in my previous post). The 110 Prims Junk entrance looks unobtrusive from the surface–no more than a sunken pathway to an abandoned platform.
Just wait until you tumble into the entrance, falling underwater into what appears to be a submerged laboratory. The ethereal light filtering through the water and the glowing canisters set up inside the dark, caged-off rooms feel chilling, creepy, and fantastic.

Many sims may be built for shopping, but they’re worth exploring for their visual interest and beauty. One perfect example is 6pi. After seeing Krissy Muggleston feature this sim on her blog, I had to go exploring!
One third of the sim is dedicated to the luscious nature of Alirium Gardens. The trees and plants are affordable and sweet, and the creator, Alir Flow, has set up many poses in translucent blue boxes around the picturesque landscape to take advantage of the the most photogenic moments.

I’m a bit too in love with this amazing lavender Bael skin from The Plastik. I can’t take it off! The intense, fantastical features on a dusky purple skin give my normally pale visage something extra. The only gripe I have with them are the eyebrows which are not as realistic as the rest of the body deserves. The Bael Elven skins come in a wide variety of colored tones. Each makeup option of this skin line comes with matching elf ears and eyes. Break out of the norm. This is what dressing up in Second Life is all about!
I decided to stick with the dark-with-blue-undertones theme for the leggings and fluffy shrug, both by the fabulous COCO. You can grab the leggings for free on the store wall if you’re a group member. My favorite Maitreya hair and heels (note the tinted feet. I give myself credit for matching this unique tone!) round out the outfit, and this awesome tank from Emery is one of my new favorite shirts! You can grab the Glow Studio crow ring at the Designers United II event going on now in the Cupcake sim.
Note to the wise shopper: I post-processed these snapshots a bit, so the coloring may be slightly off, so you should check it all out for yourself.

As soon as I buy something new in world, I feel an overwhelming compulsion to put it on right away and totally redo my outfit for that one piece. The problem comes when I have heaps of newness on the same day! How do I fit it all together? Thankfully today’s purchases and freebies didn’t overwhelm my attachment points or layers, so here we go:
Atomic gave their group a skin gift in two makeups and freckle options. I went with the more dramatic plum lips. Kiss my gloss, baby! Manna, the maker of some of my favorite primtastic belts, has recently created this lovely necklace with flower and leaf detail, glowing clear crystal beads, and a central charm containing suspended cherries. Grasp’s deep green down jacket fits the female figure perfectly (it’s a bit too short on the males) and keeps me snuggly warm in the falling temperatures.
I couldn’t resist playing up the purple theme with some classic Armidi Gisaci slacks. And even though my RL skin looks sickly next to gold, my SL wardrobe is filling up with gold accents and clothing pieces. This top is an old cheapie from Garbage and I tinted the Atomic facial piercings to match. For some reason (lack of imagination, perhaps) I chose black accessories. The Gritty Kitty hair/hat combo won won me (and my chilly body) over easily. I had to make a warmth sacrifice with the heels, however. Who can overlook the hotness of the best feet in SL by Maitreya? I’m trying to wear them all the time to justify the blodsucking price. It’s almost working…
