Let's get glamorized!

I have bemoaned the SL economy for most of this year, as many stores appear to have gone out of business. Yes, the real world is harsh right now, and many SL players have to economise on their RL budgets, to the point where a hobby/pastime/social networking service like SL takes second place. Even without owning a shop or house, I've found myself being frugal with my linden dollar spend this year, and it all mounts up to a gloomy SL economy.

So...with just a couple of weeks left of 2010, it's just fabulous to bring you some great news about a store that is bucking the trend and providing a whole stack of exceptionally affordable skins, clothes, poses, teeth tattoos, etc.

I sent Mal over there with L$20 to see what she could achieve and she came back as an almost entirely new Mal! With change! LOL. Suitably buoyed by this, I tp'ed over myself to pick up a few items.

I got wind of Yoko Leeroy's store via the Juicybomb blog (an essential read!) and you can visit Glamorized via the link.

There is a marvellous array of exceptionally affordable items in the store, and there is no skimping on quality to provide these items at these prices. Look at the two photos of Mal above. The first is a skin which, as you can see from the nude photograph, is of superb quality. In the second Mal models a set of glasses at L$3, and a tank top and hippie jeans priced at a couple of dollars each. I mean, wow!!!!

Do these items fit into this blog's brief, I hear you ask? Absolutely. From newbie to glamour babe in three easy movements which are, essentially, 1) join SL, 2) spend three real life dollars on it, lol, and 3) visit Glamorized.

Let me say, just before closing this post out, and immediately beginning Let's get Glamorized part 2, is that Yoko Leeeroy has achieved a breakthrough of sorts here, and the sort which can redefine and reinvigorate a relatively flat SL economy, an issue as close to my heart as the exploration of the sexy when inworld, and more of which in the next post. Bye, sexuals!
