[#501] Way Down In Kokomo

Everybody knows a little place like Kokomo
Now if you wanna go to get away from it all
Go down to Kokomo

Beach Boys, ♫Kocomo♫

While it might be nice to take a tropical vacation somewhere in reality, the best thing I can do is achieve that in the virtual world without spending nearly as much money and not have to worry about getting on a plane since that would probably be a fun task (much akin to Mr. T’s character in the A-Team). There’s a lot to cover in the next couple weeks so by the time I am finished I just may find my way back to the beach for a little bit of deserved R&R.

Pose Fair is back for it’s July round and let me tell you that when I start seeing poses come in I get pretty excited to see what kind of things I can do with the creations that the talented pose makers and their brands have created for the event. I’m starting out with a gacha pose set from Ardent Poses and one of the things that I do different is that I blog common items because sure RARES are the thing that everyone wants but in my mind is they are harder to get most times and by featuring one that might be easier to obtain it might give someone an idea for a photo of their own.

Here is the key for all the poses/props included in the Ardent Poses – Summer Photobooth Gacha

Modulus has released a hat/hair combination that I felt was perfect for this scene because it really goes well with the rest of what I picked for my “vacation” outfit. “Ben” is what I would consider a pork-pie hat that has a row of locks peaking out from under it and for this entry I used the Monochromes version which deviates from my usage of the browns but back when I started blogging my hair was always black so this is a bit of a call back to those times. This item is available right now at the equal10 event until the 5th of July so time is coming fast for you to be able to grab this before the event ends and it is moved to the mainstore location.

Pose Fair runs until the end of the month so you have until the 31st of July to find all the things you might need for your blogging or photography needs.

Modulus – Ben Hair features:

• 40 hair colors to choose from (via 5 color HUDs)
• 5 different hat textures (included in texture HUD)
• Resizable
• Integrated tinting in HUD for added customization
• Available @ Equal10 until July 5th

Recently I learned that the Signature Event was back after a long break and it’s been a while since I really bothered with buying clothes for the body but considering when you look at the money involved in purchasing something such as a body I definitely want to make the most of it so it doesn’t feel like I’ve wasted funds on something that I rarely use.

With that said I went to the event hoping to find something to go along with the Chuck Size “Benjamin” shorts that I’ve featured in other posts. My thoughts were leaning towards a Hawaiian type shirt and wouldn’t you know that the moment I walked in there staring me in the face was a dual shirt combo (the outer shirt was a tropical type design and the inner was a tanktop). Shopping trips like this are the best when you can find something right away and get back home to put it on and get to work. At this point my outfit was complete as I intended to do an above the knee shot which wouldn’t require footwear and also I would be on a beach (no shoes, no problem!)

HEVO – Revere Floral (TEAL) features:

• Includes HUD to change inside shirt (11 colors)
• Sizes for both Signature Geralt and Gianni bodies
• Available @ The Signature Event until July 20th

With so many new products and events coming there will be plenty for me to do this month so check back to see what else is new on the grid; The Men Jail is also fast approaching so there will be some fun stuff from that event as well as The Men’s Department which is always a fave of mine. Until our paths cross once again take a peak at the credits and also take a trip to Splash Beach where I shot this photo and have a beach day of your own!

Onto the next conversation…
