The Savvy? Man - Robin

New Item:


This is my very first attempt at menswear... I can't honestly say that I am completely happy with Robin. I can, at least, be proud of myself for putting an awful lot of work into it. This set comes in the same colours as Robyn and these are set for 150L each or 500L for the fatpack.

On the Blog:
I am a very, very lazy blogger. This is kind of surprising as in my first life I'm in the middle of my Bachelor of Fine Arts majoring in Creative Writing Production. I find that by the time I've birthed a new item I'm tired and just can't find the words or the concentration to write about it. It's not just 'Kota's Knickers either, I write for Fashion Victim and at the moment I have a small collection of review copies staring accusingly at me from my inventory. I will get to them, it just takes me a while. Honestly, Stephanie deserves review copies much more than I do - and if you're looking to be blogged fairly quickly send her your stuff. Plus she's a much nicer person than I am and her avatar is better looking - win win!

You Made my Day:
One of the two people who made my day today was Gillian Waldman, who wrote a very kind piece about Savvy? in her blog Deux Looks and made it a lot easier for me to get on with my day this morning.
The other was Catero Revolution of Men's Second Style who cheered me up when I was feeling left out and made me feel good about my plumper-than-average avatar. Thank-you.

Comments:
Thanks for the comments everyone. I love hearing from you both on the blog and in world so PLEASE do leave me messages. As international supermodel, Haver Cole, says "I'm never too busy to suck your face."

You can burn in hell, Stephen Bentham. /blogwar on

Concrete Park


Concrete Park, originally uploaded by Kota Buck.

Those readers who speak to me on a daily basis may have noticed that I've suddenly gone missing. I'm writing this now at 1pm on Tuesday afternoon (7pm Monday SLT) but I have no idea when I will be able to post it as I am currently without an Internet connection. It would seem that when the household bills were transferred into my name, because the person who was previously in charge of them was moving out, there were still debits on the cable Internet connection. Our ISP - OPTUS - kindly put the account back into his name without telling us and cut off my Internet connection. The account going back into his name meant that, after two attempts and a total of four hours on hold, I was informed by the tech-support operator in Bombay that he could not tell me why I could not connect to the Internet because I was not the authorised account holder and it would be at least 14 working days before the account could be changed over (again) and after that time they would tell me where my Internet had gone. So I called up my ex-housemate and he said he would call them that night when he had the time to sit on hold. He did this and that was when I found out it had been cut due to an unpaid bill (or rather several). According to the ex-housemate the bill has now been paid and the receipt number given to OPTUS who said it would be reconnected in 15-30mins... that was at about midnight last night. It still wasn't on this morning so I SMSed my ex-housemate to let him know - mainly because I can't put the money he paid for the bill in his account until I get the Internet back. He called OPTUS again and they said they'd reconnect it (again). That was a few hours ago. So basically I have no idea when I will get to post this, so I guess as I write it's still unknown... OMG! It's back! Yay!

So, on other things. I have another set up - Concrete Park. There's no nudity so I'm sure it won't go as well as it might, but I like it. I have more sets planned, including with every one's favourite model - Satine Dot.

I've lost track of what else I wanted to say, see you in world. x.

High Time for an Update

It's been a while, hasn't it? Well I've been a combination of uber busy and away from home (and my high-speed internet) but fret not, I'm back in action.
I'm not sure if I've blogged it but most of you will know that December and I parted ways right before Buckie's grand opening. My single days did not, however, last long as I now have a new man in my life. Ephraim Massiel, cliques that hurt my credibility as a writer seem to be hard to avoid. He's lovely. I am happy. He's also totally ace at Photoshop so expect some collaborations from us soon.
I'm a little irritated at the moment - and not just because the grid is down. Attempting to read issue #6 of Second Style Magazine I began to get the feeling that maybe there is room for another SL mag. I found the graphic design somewhat lacking and each to their own, but I find that I just can't get into Celebrity's writing. My friends are such talented and creative people that you never know, a new SL publication may be on the horizon.

Love, Kota. x.

Malkov

It has been brought to my attention that I didn't mention Malkov at all in my last post. Which was quite an oversight considering the fact that I haven't take the duck derby he made off since I got it. I'm not sure if I've made it quite clear enough how awesome both the hat and Malkov are. I felt the need to illustrate this with a series of unrelated pics from the past couple of days. As you can see I am wearing a dead duck on my head in all of them.

I think this is really a great example of the awesomeness of this hat. Malkov has managed to design this item so cleverly that it allowed me to approach this parrot to the point where I ended up on the perch with the other bird. I don't know what's in this hat, magic maybe, but I was the yay being surrounded by birds. I'm a really bird person, I've had budgerigars for as long as I can remember. My current baby is Hamish Wallace Hughes. Yeah, he's ended up with my ex's last name. I hope I always have budgies, but I'm also kind of planning to be an old lady with a pair of whippets. Whippet's are great dogs, I miss my darling Peggy (she still lives at my mum's house). I will have a male and a female and the lady whippet will be called Twiggy after my favourite model and the male will be Devo (if you don't get it you are better off).And here's me with Angelique , the duck derby still. How cool does it look from the side?! For those playing at home my t-shirt says UNICORN POWER because I am very hip. I have very little to say about this shot. I'd just finished my DJ shift, Meso had just started his and the "Bikini Bod" event was just kicking off. You can't see the hat too well but it's there and still being awesome, and sure the pic is poorly framed and unrezzed but there are two bare-assed DJs in the one picture. Enough said.And of course, in this picture you can quite clearly see this brilliant creation of Malkov's. I should point out that the sleeveless jeans jacket is also by Malkov. I would not look anywhere near as awesome if it weren't for Malkov. Go to Old Gravy, bitches.

'Kota.

Note: Tomorrow I will probably be posting pics from the photo-shoot I did with Alla the other day.
