Shoes

Inspired by the conversation happening in The List thread, got me curious. I went and look up some Stiletto Moody pictures and they don't look bad at all, they look pretty dam nice and not just for tarts like Ann said.

With all our fashion mavens I bet we could get some great suggestions for the best Stiletto or place to get shoes. We'll need pictures of course.

Who makes a better Stiletto than Stiletto Moody? Seems that person is made to create the perfect Stiletto , even naming themselves after the shoe style.




This link to images of the shoes didn't show up, there don't seem to be a lot of these shoes images on a google search. The shoes look nice.

Who here owns a pair of the 8 dollar shoes? We'll need testimony.

and then I was thinking, do we even have a sub forum for fashion? and yes we surely do. Maybe this thread can be moved there, my bad.

I did say most looked like hooker heels, not all. And do they look 1000-1200L nice to you?

They look 700L nice to me. I would buy them for 700L. *shrug* I guess that keeps up the exclusivity of them or something.

I love that necklace in the first pic. It is from Shiny Things. I used to have it and gave it to one of my alts and then forgot which one.

Speaking of Shiny Things... Shoes from there are teh win and reasonably priced.

They do look nicely made. But they're not for me - chunky raised heels is about the nearest I get to stilettos!

I'm so spoiled by Fally and Armidi. Look at the crispness in the textures. The vertices have all been forced to the curves, to prevent jagged edges, and how the straps meld to the heel with hardly a shadow. The textures had materials sourced to them, but the light patterns are completely loyal to the material. There's shading to add depth and dimension. Each texture is unique. These are shoes for very picky builders It's obvious the model has definitely been optimized for SL.

With Shiny Things, her textures aren't always perfect, but her sculpts are flawless. So much love goes into these. You can tell she uploaded and re-uploaded and kept working tirelessly to make sure they fit and looked right, and she gets better and improves with every shoe she makes.

I used to be quite abstinent about Maitreya, but I'm happy I waited. She's another that's been steadily improving, and she's been learning the tricks to make her sculpts smoother. She still sources a lot of her textures from material pictures and it shows, but I bought a pair of her men's shoes and was actually quite happy about them.

If you're a builder, you know where your own challenges are, what you find hardest about what you do, and you just have to truly admire the people who can handle what you struggle with gracefully. You can also recognize the people who slaved over it too, and thank them for their steadfastness and perfectionism by spending your lindens there. I only have so much to spend, so I make sure it goes to the right people

Bea had several pairs from Shiny Things - and a couple of pairs of Tya's, too.

I have shoes from Shiny Things - those sandals I live in.

I bought Armidi and didn't like them that much but it was only one pair.

Maitreya where the most impressive sculpted shoes I had seen when I started buying them, the boots are fabu.

AND YES TYA HAS GREAT BOOTS AND GAVE ME THE WHOLE SET SHE MADE FROM MY PIC.

Fancy that, I am on my way to go look at shoes. I have to stay on budget though. I am saving my lindens for a trip to Disneyland next month for my mental health.

Some people go to therapy, I buy virtual shoes and stalk a mouse. And not that lame Honda one, either.

Tya, I'd only seen the button boots you gave out as freebies to the SLU folks who asked for them. Those look beautiful and incredibly crisp, is that an inworld photo or from your modeling program? You've really improved too

375L. And you could buy five of them for the price of SM's grotesque detached limb ho-heels.

And you could buy six pairs of these
