This is going to cost me BIG TIME!!! (New Mina riding hat).

We all use SL for different reasons, living our dreams, making contact and friends with people from all over the world, some are trying to make an income and of course for some it’s XXXX fun and games. I SL for the clothes, freebies and being able to ballet dance and to own a horse.

Although I love and adore my “Fred” he is just a small shetland pony and is now so limited in his AO’s. This is “Sugar” my Teegle horse.

I am not going to bore you with too many details but once you see how these horses move and act and their ridability is just scarily realistic, even down to the nostrils flapping when it whinneys.

I’ve got the non-copy version which at 1250Ld is a pretty good price. I am more than happy with my non-copy version but if I or anyone wants to update then at the Shop and Hop event you can upgrade to a copy version and it was over 4000Ld which is at a discount.

This is the notice that came with the hat/hair.

” THE HORSE SHOW SALES EVENT It is a premiere equestrian sales event sponsored by Teegle! Featuring everything you need for your ideal equestrian lifestyle in Second Life, including equestrian wear, barn and stable decor, as well as skins and accessories for your animesh Teeglepet horses and Teegle bento horse avatars! It runs from October 24th – November 24th”.

As always when showing you a Mina product I popped to her shop/sim to take a picture and found a random horse lol. How weird. So I just snapped a picture away.

This is a very classic English styled riding hat and the hair is styled to a neat bun at the nape of your neck. You do get the massive colour hud as standard now but only the black hat. I don’t have the “styling hud” which has to be purchased seperately so I can only assume that it allows you to change the colour of the hat and add a fringe/tendrils to the hair? If I don’t get it to blog you can bet your last Linden I will be buying it for myself as being I love being a bit “horsey” in SL and I will add an update.

BTW. There is a special offer also going on in the Mina Mainshop. So for only 30Lds you can “gacha” yourself an “interactive Zombie hair”. This is a “Holiday Replay Gacha” offer.

LAST THING! Martha is a hair I wore not too long ago and although this hair isn’t on any sort of offer the style of it with a shawl draped over the head makes for a great finishing touches to some costumes and I think Mina must have thought the same as this has been moved into the reception area near to the Replay Gacha so make sure to check that out.

The Horse Show.

The Rose Theatre (Bloggers Delight).

I personally rarely use textured background shots not that I haven’t seen some used to stunning effects but mainly because it’s more things to buy and more items to lose in my invent.  So like many Bloggers I’m always on the lookout for great places to take photos and WOW did I find somewhere.

Angel Manor Estates is a VAST 4 sim build of a house and garden that rivals The Palace of Versailles.  SL miles of corridors and behind all the doors are rooms sumptuously laid out for ALL to enjoy.

Library, conference room, dinning room, indoor pool, indoor stables and on and on but you won’t find bedrooms.  This is a very adult sim but without the naughty adult aspect.  That doesn’t mean to say you couldn’t put on your finest gown and make an assignation with a loved one here in fact this place is screaming out for people to wander around in full-blown French period fashion.  An active sim by the visitors I could see on my mini map but because of its size you will get the peace and quite you want with a loved one or like me time to sit and ponder.

The Rose Theatre seems to be the heart of the build and you can see how big it is when you look at how small I am on the stage.

I took so many photos it was hard to just chose which ones to use.  As much as there is to look at inside Kaya Angel hasn’t missed out on the outside either.  Formal gardens and an informal outdoor pool all surrounded by a sim surround of mountains simply means a great place to visit or hang out.  Check out the rideable horses they are the most realistic I have yet to see in SL sadly for me I had to go check them out and they’re out of my price range (12,000) but it just goes to show that Kaya Angel hasn’t spared any expense to make this other peoples paradise.

Oops I was so busy thinking of how to describe this place I forgot that you can actually own some of it.  There is a shop and also a house rezzer platform.  Sadly this sort of quality doesn’t come with low prims.  You can’t buy ALL of the build but he has smaller versions of opulence for sale.  Sadly “opulence” doesn’t= low prims  but the prices for the workman ship, quality and size is more than reasonable.

If you can’t afford the price or the prims of a full house then you can pick up some period pieces of furniture and I’ve just clicked and picked up a very gold and ornate lamp for only 30Lds and 2 Prims.  What I really like is that although he has a shop with everything in one place if when you’re wandering around you spot a chair you like or a lamp then just click n buy. This makes it much easier than having to TP back to the shop although a visit to the shop will pay off as he has kindly placed out a box packed full of FREE furniture that is not for sale anymore.

It’s not often that I receive an outfit in Second Life that just forces me to take ACTION…but when I tried out the new Equestrian wear  from SF Design..I had to saddle up and ride ! Absolutely fabbo riding gear…and so very English in style…this is the new range of Equestrian pretties , and I LOVE them. They aren’t just lovely to wear and smexy in the way that only riding couture  is..but faithfully realistic…trust me I ride horses ! The breeches are briiliant..of course because I blog and fiddle with photos and light settings, its hard to see the damned fine details on them, but it’s there, knee creases, the correct stitching detail that makes the seams on these in real life almost indestructible…four colours to choose from, I went for the tone I actually wear in real life.

To get the look spot on…wear your breeches with the Charlotte blouse and jacket….full marks for realism yet again, I can recall a blouse such as this when I did pony club, seriously ! The jacket is beautiful…and its not just for riding…its a winner all round..three quarter length sleeves with a velvet turn back cuffs, nipped in at the waist…five colours in singles or a great big fat pack…this is green. Id wear this with a pencil skirt, its got a lovely retro feel to it. The blouse is a simple to wear affair…complete with neck stock and tiny silver horse shoe decoration on the collar…just perfect. Single jackets are just 100L, fat pack of all five is OHMYGOD only 350L …breeches are 100L for all four shades, and the Charlotte blouse just 150L for ALL four colours.

Ohhhhh btw, I wont claim this as my idea…cause it was Swaffette who reminded me, the SFD wellies go awesomely with this ensemble…I chose the “dirty” look ones, but you do get a clean pair in the box too ! Thanks Swaffette ❤
