SLink Gets Strappy

Siddean Munro of SLink has released the Ilena Sandal, a strappy sandal perfect for summer. Ilena is an add-on for SLink's rigged mesh bare feet which means no fussing with skin coloring for a different shoe. Just wear your SLink feet and then add the Ilena Sandal and you're ready to go. Not having to recolor the skin saves frustration, but having the shoe as an add-on means a slight loss in realistic detail as there is no shading or changes to the foot from wearing the shoe. The Ilena Sandal can be dressed up and down making it a lovely addition to your shoe wardrobe.



Ilena is available individually or as a fatpack of 11 colors - aqua, black, blue, brown, gold, olive, pink, purple, red, taupe, and white. As with all mesh content, you must use a viewer that supports mesh in order to view them properly.

Sexy And I Know It.

It's been a while, and I have missed so many great shoe releases... but I have been lucky enough to take notice of one or two, and it has inspired me to post a few modest pics (no fancy stuff). One of these recent releases comes from Nardcotix, a surprising peep-toe with toes, in a sexy faux gator skin with metallic spike heel. This isn't a typical spike heel... it is, in fact, a spike... careful not to step on any toes. These NX Mana Era Gator Peeps are only available at Nardcotix's OGlam location, but they are well worth the trip.

Visit Nardcotix at OGlam.

Gators

Gos' Gators are going to be taking the grid by storm at 4 PM SLT when Culture Shock opens its doors to the public. The textures and details on these mesh sporty clogs are absolutely amazing. I'll be completely upfront here - I am not a fan of the Gators' real life counterpart. I can't really explain it, they just make me cringe but for some reason in SL they're really cute. Gators can be worn by pretty much anyone, including child avatars, thanks to the resizing menu. The other nifty thing is these can be worn along with prim feet! So you can get a super-realistic look.



Like the rest of Gos' footwear, there are a ton of possibilities for the Gators thanks to the EIGHTEEN color updaters and extensively scripted menu system that allows for total customization. The strap, logo, upper, and sole can all be textured white or to whatever color updaters have been applied. Basically, you buy the base white Gator (during Culture Shock, 100% of the base Gator sales go to Doctor's Without Borders) and then buy whatever color updater you want.

Miel Timber Boots

Miel released the cute Timber Boots earlier this week for women and men. There are two versions of this boot, natural and brights. Each version comes with a number of colors and a TON of options.



 The boot, metal, soles, straps, stripes, socks, and laces can all be changed via the menu, allowing these boots to be completely customized. Resizing is also available via the menu and includes the ability to resize the height, width and depth of the boot for a perfect fit.

Desire Boot by Gos

The Desire Ankle Boot is the latest mesh boot from Gos and it is stunning. With a simple click, Desire can go from a seemingly tame leather ankle boot to an edgy, cap-toed boot with a ton of attitude.  Available in four colors - Crimson, Black, Chocolate, and White - the Fatpack option is the way to go as usual. The Fatpack allows you a ton of possibilities to completely customize your boot as it gives you all four boot color options.



The HUD and menu system on Desire allows the toe cap, sole, heel, and metal accents to be changed with a simple click. The unrigged pair is resizable via the HUD, allowing the wearer to both scale the boot and individually stretch the boot in each direction as needed. Desire includes rigged, standard sized versions as well as a non-rigged version that is resizeable, if needed.

Triumph

 You have probably seen these boots a million times by now, but they are just so amazing that we'll just make it a million and one. Gos released Triumph, a mesh Doc Marten style boot that is half laced with wide ribbon. Triumph can be worn three ways - full height, folded to reveal the texture-change lining, or under pants cuffs making them incredibly versatile.



Available in Black, Pink, Massai, Brown, Worn, and Red, Triumph is sold individually or in a fatpack. The fatpack is not only an incredible bargain, but allows you to mix and match all leather options to completely customize your boots! Triumph includes rigged, standard sized versions as well as a non-rigged version that is resizeable.

Great Gatsby

As part of this month's Collabor88 collection, Betty Doyle of Ingenue has released the Gatsby Heels. This gorgeous mesh Mary Jane has a pump-style heel and is trimmed in metallic gold. Currently available in five rich colors at the incredible Collabor88 event price, my bet is there will be a full release of these very soon.
