jfl hats - what a great find!

Hats, Hats and more Hats!.. What a find. Recently opened at Gay Fun World, I came across the wonderful establishment called JFL Hats. These hats are as unique as they can be in SL.Being a Hat "freak" myself, I went in search of the creator. As Johnfrancis Laville said "I began making clothes in 2009, and have had a store in-world since then. Last year I decided to switch to mesh, and began making mesh hats as a practice. I had so much fun making them, I kept doing it! I sculpt and texture the mesh myself, everything is original and can be found only in my stores." - Here, I am presenting only 4 of the designs.

The NEW Bolero V2 that JFL Hats has created is awesome, and I actually bought the set for myself at the recent The24 event!
Styling: NEW Bolero Hat V2 Black/Grey- JFL Hats; the 24 Exclusive suit - XIAJ; Omimi Ears - Mandala; Backgrounds from NEW Ghostville Pack 2 & 3 - KaTink - Pose from NEW Mr. Runway Pack - KaTink


The JFL Hats Red Velvet Pork Pie hat is a favorite of mine and also comes in six colours! SO fashionable both in SL andRL!

None of us can do without a Bucket Hat. It is so versatile and can be dressed up or down. JFL Hats has a standard version as well as a camo version. Each design available in six colours.

Inside out - after 3 years, still producing the highest of quality, style and comfort!


I was chatting to Viktorious [Viktor jolbey] the other day about the success in Inside Out… Here is what he had to say: "I began designing in Sl about 3 years ago. I found that there weren't a lot of nicely done casual male clothes out there that were stylish and affordable. I started out with tees, and slowly expanded from there into a variety of different clothing, accessories and tattoos for men. I love creating clothing and fun, new looks to make every man in SL feel stylish, comfortable and able to express themselves from the Inside-Out!"

Having been a fan of Inside Out for some years, here are a few of their great NEW outfits!

Perfect for Autumn [Fall for our USA readers] - beautifully textured 3 quarter sleeved Light Shirt, teamed with red jeans and a great grey wool scarf. Just love this outfit from Inside Out. Going to be well worn by me :)



For those living in the southern hemisphere, summer is on the way. How about this cool blue tiger Tank Top teamed with blue Hawaii Boardies and the coolest of mesh sunglasses. Inside Out are known for their very clean and well designed tattoos. This is their Maorie single arm and chest set.



Moving back to the Northern Hemisphere where winter and snow is on the horizon, Inside Out has created a great Hoodie teamed with blue Jeans and a black Tee. There is also a White Tee to go with the outfit. However.. The best for me is the cutest Brown wool "Cat-Hat".. I am a cat lover in RL :)

ayhan vaniva makes sure that l'uomo mesh avatars are fashionable!

With the advent of Mesh in Second Life, so many possibilities have been made available to creators. For those of you who want to show a little more muscle and definition, Miro Collas of Animations Rising  fame, has created a superb range of male mesh avatars called L'Uomo.

LeCock offers both fashion and accessories mainly for L'Uomo Mesh Avatars by Animations Rising and finely designed unique items of new age body jewellery for men. All items are exclusively created by Ayhan Vaniva. No matter what L'Uomo avatiar you have, or decide on in the future, Ayhan's clothing is available in all L'Uomo shapes.

Here, I am introducing you to three of his designs and hopefully, will be featuring more of his designs soon. "Gary", is my preferred L'Uomo shape. Do not listen to what people say, L'Uomo is not difficult to wear. Just read the note card from A to Z and with a day's practice, you will be having a wonderful time with a new state of the art avatar!

I just love this open shirt and pants outfit from LeCock, it is available with or without the collar. It feels and looks very sexy and can be dressed up or down, depending on your mood.

The blue dress pants from LeCock fit like a glove. This outfit includes the open shirt, prim cuffs, collar, tie and of course the pants.
The open shirt from LeCock comes with prim cuffs and collar. The black lie is included in the outfit.
Polka dots all the way from LeCock. An evergreen and Never out of fashion. One of the aspects of these outfits are the subtlety of colour and texture, so casual yet so up-market :)

Just so understated and up-market. LeCock comes up trumps with this dotted shirt that comes with a prim collar.

It is always great to have a creator like LeCock that produces not only clothing, but the accessories as well. Shown here are the Renewed Gem Passion necklace and Leather/Silver bracelet.

Here is the shirt without the collar. I think the colours suit me :)
Winter is on the way and I am prepared with this wonderful LeCock Tweed Jacket to keep me warm. It comes with long sleeves that can be rolled up.

mmmm... pretty sexy. Looks as though he needs to go to the bathroom. Must be the sexy tight fitting blue drss pants from LeCock :)

A closer shot showing the detailing. Ayhan knows his trade!
