RUIN.

I've finally gotten the Cassiopeia eyes updated with petite sized eyes and I've put the free wearable rainbow colored demo and the fatpack up on the Marketplace! Because it would take me forever to list all 107 (!) colors, what I'm going to do instead is this: if there is a particular color you want without having to purchase the fatpack, just let me know and I'll put it up for you! The demo contains contact sheets of all the colors so you can figure out what you'd like :) Best ways to contact me: - email: sunshine.tentacles@gmail.com - IM me, Ruina Kessel, inworld

Get this demo for free ! Just a quick small note to say that the Moth facepaints are now up on the Marketplace and you can find them HERE . There's 15 colors available (besides the wearable rainbow demo)  and of course the fatpack . Enjoy! <3

I love how airy and summery these tops are :D Here's the run down: They come with six sizes. The sizes are a bit strange (mostly to do with various bust sizes), NOT standard sizing, so it's absolutely imperative that you try the demo. If you have no chest whatsoever, you'll have a hard time fitting in them, unfortunately, but for the bustier - these are way cute and fun! There are 96 colors in all, divided into 5 different groups. You can pick them up individually, by pack, or giant fatpack if you are so inclined! So, if your bored and can't get into skin fair and want something to do, come on over to my shop and give these a try :D Here is your taxi!

It's been a while, and I've been quietly working on things as I can. So! A couple pieces of news: Firstly, I am rebranding my shop! The new name is Devae and you'll start seeing it seep into product names and projects and such. I'm still me, still making the things I make, I just got tired of not being able to search my shop name (do you know how many websites, stores, and other things have the name "rue" in them? You know, because it's a french word for street, and a plant, and the name of a character in Hunger Games ... ). Plus, this new name has a more personal little flavor for me (it's the name of a fictional race I created that tends to inspire my creations), so it's fitting. The actual parcel name won't change for a while - the sim is scheduled for an overhaul and when it's done, my shop will be in a slightly different place - same sim, just different coordinates. So I'm going to wait until then to change the parcel name. Eit...

HORRORFEST and the Grande Olde HorrorFest Hunt openings have been pushed back to 11:59pm on Octoper 18th. Another way to think of it is two minutes before the 19th, or 30 hours from now ;)

.{Rue}. has amped up for Halloween and this month we're not only in "We Love Role-Play" but we are also in TWO MORE events, and there are some new releases at each! Opening today (October 17th) at 6pm SLT/PST ... Click the picture to go to the  blog with all the info! A long time ago House of Ruin (Ruina's old brand) was in one of Pulse Games' Halloween game/hunts and it was so much fun! For those unfamiliar with how it works - it's a massive horror themed game that takes place in a truly breathtaking build. You have to solve puzzles and figure out the story to get to the end. Along the way, there are all kinds of goodies hidden throughout the game by all the supporting designers. At the end of the build you'll find a little souvenir shop filled with cool stuff from all the designers who hide stuff along the way! So, this year, I've released some new EYES to go with the computer-y theme of the build: Singularity click the image to view la...

It's possible no one cares about this except me, or that folks might feel this issue is too trifling to comment on, but I feel it's important to acknowledge it anyway. "Don't be a jerk" has been a longtime motto of mine. I consider it a rule for life. Unfortunately, sometimes it's possible to be a jerk without knowing it, or without intending it. And when that happens, the best way to not continue to be a jerk is to own up to what you've done and make amends. I've named at least one eye color that I've made "Gypsy" (it's in the Tonic, Tonic XXX, and Pluto lines, at least). I always thought the word simply referred to a person (of any race or creed) that chose a nomadic life. I was peripherally aware of a connection to the Romani, but didn't think much of it. And I was very wrong. The word is typically used two ways - one, as a racial slur for the Romani, typically tied to an egregiously racist stereotype that they are all thie...
