New From C.O.C.K.

So the fall is quickly approaching which means two things. No more summer loafing, and new items to be released weekly from C.O.C.K. Furniture Designs. This weeks bring my new Social Sofa. It is a 33 prim sofa that comes with a total of 26 animations which include Adult, Cuddles, Single Sits for Men and Women, and an option to sit up to (3) friends.
For now it comes in Mocha & Onyx. Each sofa also comes with a matching lamp which lights up on touch.
Don't forget H.O.K.K. debuts November 2011. Below is a link to my Marketplace Store. Enjoy!

What A Waste!

So, in true LOYAL CUSTOMER fashion, I decided that I needed to go out and purchase the Coquette shoe made by the creator of N-Core shoes.
It was the perfect little black pump. Nice satin texture, and of course the presentation was very impressive. Also impressive was the price tag of only L$295. Well...that should have been my flag that something was wrong. After plopping down my L$295 I went home to unbox the shoe and wear it with a nice knee length pencil skirt that needed dusting off from my inventory. When I put them on, I wanted to scream. The issue? Cankles!! (See picture below).
Now, for those who are not aware, 'cankles' are those little jagged, oddly shaped pixels that your avatar takes on when wearing certain footwear. Linden Labs is STILL working on it (so they say). What upset me was the fact that the picture does NOT show the cankles. Therefore, many consumers ran out to purchase this shoe (myself included), thinking they had found a way to maybe use the alpha layer to remedy the problem. Well, no such luck. I am more livid about the fact that I feel as though I was sold a false product than I am about the linden I wasted. There is nothing worse then showing someone a picture of Ferrari only to sell them a Yugo. It was after I heard from a few other friends that I decided I needed to let people know.
I still love some of their other creations, but this one was defintely A WASTE!!
