The Pornstars' Rack: A new one!

New year, new magazines! Well, new issues of good ole magazines, that is. Here's the launch of the latest ...
  SL Connoisseur

January, to quote the incipit of an article here, can be a 'long and boring month', coming down from a big time of holidays, gifts and multiple hos. This issue though pulls out all the stops to be packed with content for every taste, with the staff working extra-hard, sometimes twice or thrice as hard and with new angles on true and tried features. An extra special instalment of SL Connoisseur that gets 2019 off to a good start!

If you wonder about the party dress code, what can I say? Less is more, sometimes!

Speaking of good starts, I like to remind you that the best and sure way to be part of the magazine, and be part of any and every gig in SL, is being the first to show interest. How? For instance, showing up at the party ! At 11 PM SLT today Thursday 3rd, SL Connoisseur throws the release party, which gives Kiki (Kristina Deschanel, the person in charge of putting together this publication!) the material to begin and end the issue. A great chance to meet the staff, starting with the owner Edvard Taurion, and be photographed by Kiki in some candid shots - including possibly the party star full pictorial!

That is a great policy, try and do  THAT on MP! pfft!

Starting to dig into the plentiful offer of this issue: as you can expect there are several product features and related interviews - I am especially happy to highlight the presence of renowned designers such as Bandor Beningborough of Maui fame, and Toxxic Rhiannyr, whose reputation preceeds her and that brough in the past her expertise as judge for the SX Awards. Both have been supporters of the adult arts in SL, with Bandor's Debauchery brand sponsoring Miss Emily amongst others. It is really nice to read some more about them, together with other usual suspects from Edvard's list of patrons.

Sneak into my club will you, you wasically wabbit?

Avielle Jewell led not just Toxxic's interview, which would be already a pretty formidable contribution, but also once more gives a different spin (wait for it...) to the Nightlife feature, this time not focusing on a club/location, but on a person. With all the wonderful DJ personalities we have in our group, I am sure I don't need to tell you how fascinating it can be to sit down and talk to someone about their choices and inspirations, so why not? DJs are often the soul of clubs more than the venue itself. Osiris Leshelle too pulled double duty, in two sim features that show quite nicely her range: one comes across as more photography oriented thanks to the flow of a sharp descriptive style of her writing, the other is built around the conversation with the creative mind behind the sim(s). Both are lovely shot travel diaries worth checking out.

Fetish activities? Oh I have this hunch about some of our readers interested in that...

I almost forgot the models! Not really, i was saving the juiciest parts for last! Across the past months and since her addition to the roster, DJIceQueen has provided photography to support several features as you can see in this issue she is tasked with a Pet of the Month pictorial featuring Sᴀɢᴇ Hᴇᴀᴛʜᴇɴ Vɪᴄɪᴏᴜs (MsKittenheel )! She shows dedication and talent. Both the 'studio' pictorials this month had to go with the new year theme obviously, and again I have to congratulate Kara Hawk for her centerfold, as the boobylicious (seriously, check those curves out!) Maya Moon is skillfully highlighted in every bit throughout a sexy and playful countdown. Kara's creative approaches to pictorials is truly one of the highlights of the magazine.

Some lovely baloons to greet 2019 with!

Now speaking of countdowns...You gotta come over to the party! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ADRENALINA/207/113/3502
Featuring DJ Leannan McCormick's tunage, Kiki's watchful eye and a sure shot at SL glam (make believe as it may be!), paying a visit and a homage to the hard working people involved is a no brainer. The magazine is here on MP for you to check out, if you like to do your research first! otherwise, just come over and discover it as the party goes by. And yes, you may become the party star too, just like Natasha Deir here!

The Pornstars' Rack: Countdown to XXXmas!

A new month can only mean...another unescapable holiday to celebrate, right? What are we promoting now? What new merch are we gonna stock on? Hmm? Hmm? The answer can be found of course in the newest issue of...

SL Connoisseur

But of course it's Xmas! We can't miss that one, or the good people at Coca Cola are going to be mad at us, right? It's no suprise to anyone that a December issue would contain plenty of gift ideas and be immersed in the holiday spirit, and this issue surely does not disappoint There are several lovely items , and sims, that bring you fully in the mood.
You can check them all , and you should!

No better image to show it than with Osiris LeShelle in another sweet sim report!

Since 'tis the season of giving, SL Connoisseur this time brings even more features than usual, with some sweet variations to its consistently applied formula. The most notable one being the presence of an 'extra' Pet of the Month, in the person of the sensual Mina Grace (6pinkpassion9). Her pictorial adds a different, adumbral take on the holidays, and looks just charming.

Extra, extra! More pets for December! Read all about it!

Another surprise within the tradition, is the unique blend of fashion and venue coverage, rolled in one! DJIceQueen brings an editorial contribution combining the two for the nightlife/club scene feature, this time taken at an event that involved music and a store presentation.

Hey, that's today!

A nice new take for what already is the freshest addition to the magazine formula. Is is also worth noting that the second 'youngest' member of the staff Avielle Jewell has a full fledged interview with what is definitely one of my favourite cosmetics designers around, featured in several top of the line events in SL. Together with the usual parterre of designers who have been working with Edvard on the blog as well, will give you a slew of products to check out.

With PEA as Pet, we have the T&A fully covered!

As for the rest of the crew that has been on the magazine longer, no better way to sum it than giving a shoutout to the covergirl herself, the prized Kristina Deschanel, shot by Kara Hawk. Without forgetting the gorgeous Pet of the Month, PEA Pevensey, captured in her beauty again by Kara, I am especially glad to see Kristina experience again the camera from the other side. Life and soul of the SL Connoisseur processing in every page, Kristina has the never easy task an editor has, to try and make everything fit before the end of the month thanks to everyone's contribution. A task to which she adds the entirely different challenge to keep those party photos coming seizing the moment every first Thursday of the month!

I too wish to every girl a xmas with so many big socks.

Forrrrr....the Party, of course! Which will happen, if you need a reminder, today Thursday 6th at 11 AM SLT, here! With the tunes from the awesome DJ Leannan McCormick! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ADRENALINA/207/113/3502 
I keep mentioning it: SL Connoisseur is the one magazine that guarantees you to be in the next issue with your photo captured at the party, in fact it opens with it, and it may even also close with it in a full pictorial spread! And that sort of keepsake should only be your initial motivator to do what we always promote through the Pornstars parties and any other sort of promotion related to the adult arts: be part of it, provide feedback, show interest, don't just wait for anything to happen to you.

Show up at the party, get your photo captured (you may also become the Party Star like long time model LauraSpain Neox above!), and interact with the hard working inviduals who make this magazine. A word and a testimony of your interest can bring you far.

Rack me up when September ends!

For our latest instalment of "The pornstars' rack", here we are now, fresh and recharged after the summer break. Oh? We did NOT have a summer break? Well damn, they DO say there is no rest for the wicked!
SL Connoisseur

There is no rest for Edvard Taurion in his blogging activities, could there be any for his magazine SL Connoisseur? Obviously not, and this issue shows all the classic features of the lifestyle publication we have been knowing for almost 3 years. This time with a few notable news and additions to the lineup of a couple or real crown jewels! I am so cringing at how obvious this joke is but just read and tell me how could I refrain from not saying so!

Will 2018 be a fine vintage? Only one way to find out but looks good so far!

Let's start by giving precedence to, obviously, the cover! Arielle Darkstar (Arielle Jewell) has to be the postergirl of this issue, since non only she is casting her dreamy gaze at us from the very first page - and MP page...

... oh btw, why don't you just get the magazine from MP? -just saying-https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SL-Connoisseur-Magazine-September-2018/15411135  ...

....but she also happens to be the newest Fashion Editor of the magazine. I have to praise her interview style, with original questions and a nice natural flow. She did really well and I am sure we'll hear about her again a lot. You may wanna follow also her fashion blog, just saying!

The fashion expert Avielle to the bare essentials for this lovely magazine spread.

Back to the cover: the artist photographing her is none other than Jewell, yep, Jewell Infinity, a name the members of our group know so well. In her centerfold feature with Arielle you find all the markings of Jewell's praiseworthy work as photographer: a sexy agrestal shoot in the summer haze, managing to keep the model at the centre using the unique blend of nature and architecture to her advantage.

Had she brought that leg ALL the way up, her toes prolly would have gone past the ozone layer and got a lil sunburnt.

And this month as well Kara Hawk managed to excite me with her Pet of the Month shoot! Her assignment this month was a model who is a pretty spectacular photographer herself in Jessica Moonlight. It's a common trait throughout the history of the magazine, to provide with its essential features a focus on so many real gems from the world of erotic photography. Of course, and you know I am closing the article with this as well, some also help themselves by doing things like you know, showing up at the events! Like the gorgeous Cassandra Hastings (alexxyes), a model I always had a soft spot for through the many years we crossed path being in porn.

The party star Cass beckoning at the paparazzi!

Oh dear, I am running a bit long now and haven't even touched Osiris LeShelle's location feature, this time in the shape of a road trip through the iris countryside (SL style of course!), the contributions from Edvard himself with his multiple sponsors, and the wonderful Kristina Deschanel's work. Talking about her work as editor who physically layouts and puts together the whole magazine, and that rises to the occasion every singe time during parties taking shots of the various guests. Such an essential role for the magazine's formula.

I would have so loved to ride that bike with Onyx and enjoy the marvellous sight! ...yeah, of her ass,  you got me.

 A formula that is meant to give YOU a chance of being part of the whole magazine experience like no other virtual intellibook publication does! Show up today September 6th at 11 AM SLT, and you WILL be part of the magazine! Leannan McCormick is your DJ, Kiki will be taking pics of you so you WILL be in the next month issue, and who knows, ampler features may happen! No excuse not to join (and being a party by Ed, of course there's a rafle too)! http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ADRENALINA/207/113/3502 

See you at the party!

The Pornstars' Rack: August, with Gusto!

Okay if last month was hot, now THIS month it is REALLY REALLY HOT. Am I really talking about the weather? Yes, because it is REALLY , REALLY...okay fine. Part of it has to be attributed to the sexy stuff here. Judge by yourselves when you check out this issue of...

SL Connoisseur

It's always a tough choice when it comes to start these posts, because...where to start from? Oh, the magazine knows perfectly where to start, and how to end, in a circular structure of sort. It's a well oiled machine that since its very inception almost 3 years ago brings every month to its readers a perfect structure for its goals. A regularity that is a distinctive trait predating the magazine itself when you consider what the name Edvard Taurion grew to represent throughout the years in the world of porn with his blog. One of those ever-present features are sim reports, and it's a particular pleasure to talk about this one here...

The Mystic Timbers representatives here!

Because this time it's about the gem of a sim co-owned and managed by our own Rachel Swallows! Osiris Leshelle, true to her style, organized this article very well, switching flawlessly between the two different subjects of the interview (Rachel and fellow co-owner Sol ) to produce an agile, informative and entertaining piece of work, rich in photos just like Mystic Timbers is incredibly rich in variety. A must read-and-see to anyone who has not been there yet, and some who may have been already and missed some of the latest surprises the sim keep offering.

Cally made for a perfect model in this photoset with a touch of timeless charme from Kara

Of course, what else are you looking for in this magazine if not...how do I euphemize this? Oh right, it's the PORNstar blog so I need no euphemisms! I'll then uh, synech-do it for you ( no i am sure it's not a word). So, tits! ass! pussy! Because yes, there's some real white hot exploticism (explosive eroticism...another word I made up!) in this issue, black and white hot in one case, too. And with some names I have been hearing for years and that thrills me to see featured. I am talking about Tegann Parx and Cally Janus, two bombdacious (no it's not a word either but I think it's effective!) babes who respectively as centerfold for Theia and Pet of the Month for Kara Hawk, really bring the sexiness value off the scale!

Oh looks so mouthwatering! Ok, that kinda applies to every part of the photo, minus perhaps the flamingo...

Besides the ever present double 'studio' model shoots, and I have already had chance to praise Theia's flawless pinups and Kara's constant growth into the role (just look at the shot presented here!), there's always the more spontaneous shot of the Party Star.Here's the part where I remind you how freakin important for this magazine is the infatigable Kristina Deschanel, sure, but also, wow, here's also when I tell you how you really should come to these parties! ƊƛƳԼƛ (dayyla) got in some neat photos taken at last month's party! Now it can be your turn! Yes yours!

At the SLC parties, a moment of distraction and BAM , Kiki's camera caught ya!

Which other magazine offers you a free , sure, chance to be in the next issue through the party photos roll, and a high chance to be in a pictorial taken right on the spot? And you know, that adds to the ever present chance in every party in porn, to be noticed and to make your qualities count. And for a magazine!

So without further ado: August 2nd at 11 AM SLT, aka today, it's time to PARTY with the SL Connoisseur staff! Leannan McCormick will be the DJ, Kiki will be taking pics, Edvard will be Edvard, with the raffle and all that...what are you waiting for ?
  http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ADRENALINA/207/113/3502

Check out the magazine before getting to the party zone through the MP link
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SL-Connoisseur-Magazine-August-2018/15221915 or just get it during the party itself....you'll be flipping pages instead of checking out the hot guys and gals there then! Your choice, I am sure you can do it stealthily and look all cool as a cucumber when it's time to be photographed! See you at the party, and enjoy!

The Pornstars' Rack: I plead the Fifth!

Is it hot in here or what? To be honest, it IS damn hot. Let's make it worse with a magazine of sizzling babes!

SL Connoisseur

So it is time for another release of SL Connoisseur! Which means, time to have another party! Which will happen today Thursday 5th at 11 AM SLT. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ADRENALINA/207/113/3502 

There will be a chance to win furniture with the raffle, and Suffy's tunes (and her voice!) are always great to listen to. But what's the best selling point for parties in this industry? Exactly, the chance to network and be noticed! SL Connoisseur is the one magazine that guarantees you to make an appearance in the next issue thanks to Kristina Deschanel's camera roll. And even to become a star, literally! No, not a big ball of hot gas , but SLC's Party Star, with an extended feature that traditionally concludes the issue.

Sｏｎｊｉ aka Sonji Prevost is always a gorgeous presence at parties. Look at those beautiful big letters! 

And obviously, getting to the party also increases the chance to be part of the main course of the magazine as far as erotic photography is concerned. For over 2 years and a half now SL Connoisseur has featured talent in the guise of the Pet of the Month model, and the traditional centerfold covergirl, the most coveted spot for obvious reasons. The former is handled by Kara Hawk, the latter by Theia. What to say about their work that I haven't already covered in the previous issues?

Now that as sexy as a cowgirl position as you can do solo!

Theia's artistic rendition of Lady Stromfield aka Dream gives her name full justice, and Kara continues this month with Chelsea Gravois to imbue her photoshoots with sexy cheekiness.
And still talking about hot chicks (where would a magazine of this kind be without hot chicks?), besides Kristina 'Kiki' Deschanel's photo and editing work that glues the magazine together, we get this month too Osiris LeShelle's photo report from a sim with a lil bit of naughty broiling underneath the quiet look. A nice talk with chatty and entertaining owners, and their dog! Well okay, the dog does not talk. Okay, no spoilers.

And Kirby. Let's not forget Kirby.

SLC througout the years has helped enormously to discover new talent and make people from this community step up their game and measure themselves with all the pressure and expectations that magazine work brings. Its ultimate look and purpose is of course dictated by the core business of its owner, Edvard Taurion, as an important part of the magazine itself is based on product features made in the tried and tested style of his adult furniture review blog, but the magazine provides a lot of value besides the obvious usefulness of the products in the spotlight.

Leannan McCormick is always entertaining and a great DJ. Even when she forgets to plug the console in!

And again, the most obvious value comes when you get to be part of it, which is in some shape or form the easiest way to be in any mag and most immediate of any magazine. Show up and you'll just have to wait a month at most, for the next issue. Wanna check out the magazine as you haven't yet? It's been around for 31 issues now, but I know that in the world of porn it's very easy to miss something. So, come check it out at the party, and perhaps you have a place where you wanna put a new kiosk as well! The mag is available as well on Marketplace, for FREE.

https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SL-Connoisseur-Magazine-July-2018/14999277

See you at the party, and enjoy!

The Pornstars' Rack: June Mag!

Oh man, it's time for the hot season. Feels like it's the rain season actually, here but...let's not chitchat about the weather, and let's get damp with...

SL Connoisseur

As you know, from time to time I like to begin directly in the publisher's words! So there you go...

Dear Readers and Friends,
It is my pleasure to present to you...the new June issue of our ~SL~ Connoisseur Magazine.
I'd like to thank you again for all the messages and ideas that you sent to us straight from the beginning, my dear readers. Always looking for more of them. And never forget, we do what you wanna and ask to read about!

We have given you the best from fun and interesting locations, and products, as well as our hot Centerfold and Pet's of the Month for June.
Be sure to join our ~SL~ Connoisseur Magazine Fan group to keep updated and be more informed about what we are doing with the magazine and to be informed about our promo parties with furniture raffle and maybe even you become our next Party Star.

Enjoy SL with the always hot, new, informative and original ~SL~ Connoisseur Magazine.

Sincerely,
Edvard Taurion
Owner & Publisher

I am disappointed by the lack of any French stereotype I can make fun of!

So let's analyze the last claim: 'new' is self explanatory, this is a new issue! 'Informative' ? Ah, SL Connoisseur since its inception has brought intriguing sim reports for your travels, and without a doubt Osiris Leshelle grants you exciting virtual trips. To France, in this issue. Osiris is one fine travel guide with her talent for capturing shots of photogenic spots: her writing here serves as pleasant and terse introduction to a well conducted interview with a sim owner very passionate about his work, deeply rooted in RL history and geography. And, still on the 'informative' side, let's not forget how SL Connoisseur features a variety of products and interviews with their maker (this month, a treat for Goreans out there!). Not to mention, a pink bear named Eliza. 'Original' ? Check!

Oh yeah, THIS is what I call a hot spread in a magazine!

 Now, 'Hot'? Oh, it's not just because it is the June issue: the hotness is guaranteed surely from the topics covered, featuring some nice kinky finds, but first and foremost by the photography! SL Connoisseur notoriously uses a double (with a third in the mix...more about it later!) centerfold format, with one being the cover girl, and the other being in the 'Pet of the month' spot. The names for both need no introduction for our group members: we are talking about the gorgeous Jewell Infinity and a model truly with a sense of style, Heather Ashford!

Trifecta of present and past protagonists of SLC's picture spreads, right here in this impromptu shot by Kiki!

I have been waxing lyricals the past months about Theiasky's skills as she delivers the ideal centerfold pictorial every month; Jewell is such a babe and get her to show off basking in sun and waters was all we wished for for a June issue. I have spent even more lines lines praising Kara Hawk's ever growing photo aptitude and fresh approach to the material: this issue too explains why, in a BDSM theme shoot that stands out for angle choices and forays in black and white. Without a doubt memorable shoots for both models. What's also memorable? The feature that certainly can get the fresh reader interested the most...

Theia's photography is as usual top notch and showcases Jewell's big jade eyes quite perfectly!

The best aspect of SL Connoisseur's originality from the reader's point of view is the ample room given to its community: the magazine opens and closes with material captured by the hardest working girl on staff and true cornerstone of the mag, Kristina Deschanel. Simply put, coming to the release parties with your best look guarantees you to appear in the next issue: that means, in the picture roll that opens it. And, if your look is particularly memorable and with a naughty streak (not just meaning you'll end up all naked :p), you may end up being celebrated as Party Star! As it happened to the showy Jasmine (Ladyannabellelee) So, the essentials here!  Visit the party, which starts at 11 AM SLT today, with Suffy (Leannan McCormick) as DJ!
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ADRENALINA/207/113/3502

 And check out the magazine right here https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SL-Connoisseur-Magazine-June-2018/14758720 , don't just take my word for it!
Come over, enter the raffle, have fun, shake your butt (as I said, that alone will make you appear on the next issue), but also take your time to talk to the staff, congratulate them for the good work, and perhaps you will find a way to interest them in having you business/endeavours/sheer pulchritude in an ample feature soon!

The Pornstars' Rack: April Foolin'

Having April Fools and Easter the same day was kinda confusing. Made me kinda cautious about cracking the eggs open. Well, let's now open up the newest issue of...

SL Connoisseur

For this first spring issue, Edvard Taurion's magazine hails a couple of welcome returns from major players of the previous issue, but in different, fresh capacity. When I put in written form my appreciation for the actress and model Kara Hawk, March's centerfold, did give a passing mention of her newfound interest in photography, that really got her on the map in a new light since the beginning of the year. We have here a shining example of these skills in this issue, with a beautiful display of the Pet of the Month for this month, a model that needs no introduction and deserves repeated viewings: Rachel Avro.

No stranger to the spotlight and a highly ranked photographer herself, Rache is a gorgeous model in this issue

Also making a return in this issue as object of interest is Stroker Serpentine, and how in the world could I not mention the appearance in this magazine of one of the main locations of the Official Pornstars Parties? Vice Beach is home of the Hoobs Hotties parties, and the Hard Alley Social Club is just around the block! Osiris LeShelle brings one of her sim reports and there could not be a better and more pornable location than this to be featured!

"The Sim is open to everyone. Rules are no Child Avatars and no Assholery" - Stroker Serpentine. Read the interview!

So, besides the roving sim reporter (and ad photographer , and hard working gal who knows how to squeeze some fun in the busy office hours...) Osiris and the beautiful feature by Kara, what do we have? Oh, of course we have a beauty of the month - and another one familiar to the party goers - in a pictorial by Theia. Just look at the cover and tell me you don't wanna check -so much- more of CandyCane Gloom. Plus, obviously there's Kristina's work...

See, look at how she grabbed shots of those people obviously just disrobing!

Kristina Deschanel's dependable work as usual translates in making the whole magazine possible through her editing, plus the party photography, featuring SammieP as Party Star, and all the other sexy peeps that made their appearance at the past release party!
Because let's not forget: SL Connoisseur guarantees you an appearance on the next issue by showing up - so dress up at your best, who knows if you'll end up getting an ampler feature! And of course every party also gives a chance to win raffle prizes, kindly offered by Ed and by - her again! Kristina. Sooo.....what are you waiting for ?

Don't you love when they kinda look like they wanna cover up...but are only showing off MORE? I do!

Well, waiting for the party to get started I hope! which will happen exactly at 11 AM SLT today April 5th, with the always fun and vocal DJ Leannan McCormick.
Here!

The Pornstars' Rack: En avant, March!

In what is a snowy 1st of March in my RL, all I can do is hope for a nice warm spring, and obviously curl up reading a mag! Ok, and writing about a mag. That's less snuggly, but can get squirmy! Especially with one such as...

SL Connoisseur

SL Connoisseur takes partying very seriously, so, let me tell you about it first ! Starting at 11 AM SLT with the incomparable Suff (Leannan Lockjaw) as DJ, the release party of SL Connoisseur is always a good one to hit. Where at? Ah, here!

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/ADRENALINA/207/113/3502

It's the easiest chance you have to end up in the magazine, and not 'just' because you WILL be in its opening feature, which has been for many issues now a photo report of the previous month's, but also because the porn 'business', is as we keep reminding you, a lot about networking! Often simply showing interest, showing awareness and oh yeah, simply showing up, can truly make the difference.

No preferred dress code, feel free to bring your tiara, lace leggings and fluffy tail if you wish!! 

 I do usually write 'business' between quotation marks talking about the porn scene, but as anyone who follows Edvard's work even just through his blogging knows, the man DOES mean serious business! Some of the designers highlighted by Edvard have a broad and non specifically porny selection of items, but others are as big of a part of the porn community as it gets. I can safely say that one of the most interesting features of the issue is indeed one of commercial nature, being the interview with Stroker Serpentine. If you are following the pornstars group in world, I am sure you have seen the name of Stroker pop up quite often these days, thanks to his investment in pornstar parties and the presence of the Stroker Girlz!

Stroker's presence in the porn community has been a constant since the early, and I mean very very early days of porn in SL - heck, even of sex itself in SL - read the interview on this issue and you'll find out!

In addition to your shopping tips, you can enjoy another quality sim report and lively interview by the fantasystic (see what I did there?) Osiris LeShelle, and sexy pictorials of lovely girls! What would SL Connoisseur be without a centerfold model and the Pet of the Month? The latter is Kay Hemming (Kayleen Avedon), in a photo spread by the real jolly of the team, Kristina Deschanel, who on top of traditional spreads is also always a reliable hand at the camera for party shoots and with the layout job on the whole magazine.

I really like her subtle jewelry and the tats and ....yeah, ok. I know what you are looking at. Pervs.

About the beauty that is the centerfold model, I was delighted to see in yet another quality photoshoot from Theia one of the most active starlettes in porn these days. I am talking about Kara Hawk! Edvard has shown good instincts in the past grabbing models that are really 'trending' (just today you may have seen the announcement of her 'girl of the month' SLC interview as well!), and this delectable blonde is a fine example. Kara is enjoying these days a renewed passion for photography herself after a career as model that saw her star in the past in some of the best work by Isabelle Cheviot: a magazine cover is a fitting celebration of more than just a wonderful start of 2018 for her! I tend to root for performers who go through positive phases and are more active in the business. Err, 'business'! I sure would love to get busy with her! Take a look at the cover again and you see why.

Buzzing parties open up opportunities, a rule always to remember for porn happenings!

So! get your copy of the magazine at this link, and swing by today at 11 AM SLT!

Always something nice happening! From the obligatory photo that goes in the next issue - that could be much more if you become the Party Star like Kαѕuмι Sтαrѕi Cyhtleen) - to winning the raffle to...oh you know, meeting people and talking with photographers, producers and yes, magazine editors and owners, stuff can happen! Don't miss out.

The Pornstars' Rack: Fab Feb !

February, the month of love! And not because it's the shortest one, silly people!

SL Connoisseur

It's because of Valentine's day! One of those festivities that SL loves so much..designers especially! The feature that got my main interest in the issue has been the debut of Osiris Leshelle for a sim spotlight article: photos and interview with the sim owner equally pique interest, in an ideal destination for a romantic - but naughty too, read the details! - mood! Osiris has always been a supporter of the magazine and a lively presence at the parties, on top of being quite easy on the eyes herself, but I digress! Congrats on her journalistic merits displayed in this issue.

Of course of all photos I'd pick the one with the model mostly horizontal...

You know how it goes, Cupid's arrow has a tendency to pierce holes through the wallet, and that's why you need shopping tips. Obviously in this issue of SL Connoisseur you will find some, as expected in a publication coming from Edvard Taurion, who has made a business out of product promotion for years now. You can charm your belle, you can...wrestle her, too? I am not judging you. It's a fun and diverse selection and you'll have to check it out!

They say shiny lights are distracting, but she has a way to keep your eyes on her!

But merchandise aside, SL Connoisseur has a lot of goods on display in this issue! In its established structure, Connoisseur has a centerfold, a pet and a star, and each one is a real feast for the eyes! Theiasky, again photo editor for this month, offers a truly evocatory pictorial of the exquisite Rena Guisse. And then there's Kristina...

I think Valentine's Day got a few seconds closer just by looking at this picture...

Kristina Deschanel, technical editor of the magazine since almost 2 years now, brings a welcome Valentine special photoshoot with the Pet of the month Morana Erin. That's on top of her usual impeccable (and time- critical!) job as photographer for the parties, which opens the magazine and wraps it up sending you off with a big smile thanks to the party star: Sam Glitter is dazzling covered just in hair and tats!

All that, Glitter's!

So! You want to end up in the magazine? Surefire way is, be at the release party! You'll be in the opening feature the month after, and countless times it opened the doors to more. Plus it would not be a party with Ed without a raffle. So be there, at 11 AM SLT, with the one and only Suffy (Leannan McCormick) as dj.
