I tweaked the shade of the black sweater (in the picture) to make it closer to a black than a dark grey. I also have 10 possible colours, but I'm not sure if I should put all of them into the fatpack. If you could let me know the color numbers you like, I'd greatly appreciate it. #SecondLife

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 14/10/2026

I have a WIP of an update for an old design. I have several colors available, but I'm not sure if I'll use all of them. What do you think of the sweater in black? It's for folks who hate how all the end of the year holidays have been compressed into a single long holiday. #SecondLife

021

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 09/10/2026

Hey y'all, I made a design in 2019 promoting the idea of celebrating one holiday at a time instead of shoving them all into one combined holiday pattern. Would you be interested in my updating it for current mesh bodies? #SecondLife

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 29/09/2026

I finally got the leather of my Make a Wish outfit to look right, and after a lot of fights with the current Firestorm crashing (stupid old computer), I finally have pictures taken. Now I just need to make it for all the bodies and get it on sale. #SecondLife

021

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 25/09/2026

I have an outfit I'm thinking about using for this design. I wish the location I took the old picture at was still around, but I think it went to the Great Bit Bucket in the Sky. What do y'all think of this outfit? #SecondLife #WIP

I've updated my old Make a Wish design, and I'm trying to decide what to put it on for #SecondLife this year. I've already gotten it ready for real life merch, and I'm just waiting to publish it until the SL merch is ready, too. This is the old version of it.

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 19/09/2026

Happy Talk Like a Pirate #Caturday! I updated my red Pirate Nanci outfit for my Prima Busty body, and since it's Caturday, I had to make a feline version as well.

Evening, y'all. I was checking the SL News feed to see what's new, and as I checked some of the Destination Guide spots, I saw this coffee shop. I wonder if anyone's tried to build a shop like this in the real world. secondlife.com/destination/... #SecondLife #Architecture

The Pumpkin Spice Cafe, a building that seems to be sitting on part of its "roof," with the front side open as the "bottom" of the building is standing above ground level. There is a window in the "bottom" of the building, showing a second level, but I don't see how to access that level.

I'm finally getting ready to put my new Cats Hoodie on sale. It says, "I love my CATS more than I love most people," and I'm trying to find the best shot for the advert. This is my favorite so far, but I have to make sure the text will fit around it. #SecondLife

The other day I posted about my new We the People Strapless Top, and now it's available in a sleeveless hoodie. It could be the perfect top to complete your 4th of July ensemble. It's only L$100 and is available for ten mesh bodies. #SecondLife Your limo: maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/E...

I have another of my previous designs about to drop as a brand new hoodie for newer bodies. I just have to bag them up and get them tested so I can put them into my vendors. #SecondLife #Pride #BLM

Does this mean I'm a real person now? 🤣

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 18/06/2026

My goddess. I've been fighting a minipack I'm selling at Second Pride because I kept screwing something up, but I finally have them made. I just have to bag them up and test them before I put them on sale, but you'll only be able to get the minipack at Second Pride. #SecondLife

Ad for the Nanci's Naughties' Life's a Bitch Pride Minipack. It's three sleeveless hoodies that say, "Life's a Bitch then you become one." One has fuscia letters on a lenurple (lavender) shirt, the other two have white lettering on a black hoodie with either the inclusive LGBTQIA+ flag and the Straight Ally flag. The minipack will cost L$250, with single hoodies (and 14 other designs) will be available at the Nanci's Naughties mainstore for L$100 each.

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 14/06/2026

Making the panties fatpack took a lot longer than I expected it to, but they're done. I kept messing up something, so it took me about 4 tries to finally get them made. They're bagged up now, and will go on sale this week. Next up: 17 versions of my Life's a Bitch hoodie for #Pride. #SecondLife 1/2

The ten different colors the Nanci's Naughties will come in with the fatpack. They'll be $L500, and they'll only be available in the fatpack.

Since 2019, I've sold 9 versions of my Life's a Bitch tees for various #Pride groups (including a plain version with no flag). This year, I'm making 17 different versions (including a flag-less plain version) that will be sold at Second Pride and my store in Electra once it opens. #SecondLife

I'm about to bag up my first brand new item for my new store, and I have a question for the #SecondLife folks. How do you feel about being able to buy just a fatpack versus individual colors plus a fatpack?

A preview of my Nanci's Naughties Panties with it's color-switching HUD. I'm wearing the panties in Lenurple with the Legislation Hoodie in Lenurple I use the Prima Busty body, but the panties will be also available for Maitreya Lara, Lara X, Legacy, and Ebody Reborn.

I've put up some preview pictures of my new tops at the tent Nanci's Naughties and Pride Lanes is sharing at Second Pride. You can also get a preview of our new wet towels. Once the store opens, I'll replace pictures with vendors so you can buy them. #SecondLife maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/S...

...stand took a few hours. This is just one page of what I came up with. It would help if I had taken notes of which picture used what pose, but I didn't take the time to do that. One day I'll put together a pose stand with all of the poses I use for pictures in a single object. #SecondLife 3/fin

I took a picture of my meshing area to share on @secondpix.bsky.social (you know about SecondPix, right?), and I'll share it here as well. The 1st photo shows new shirts and hoodies being made, while the second photo is my meshing mat with the various mesh bodies I'll be supporting. #SecondLife

The meshing area in my office in Second Life. On the left are my new Legislate Shirts in lavender, and on the right are my Cancer SUCKS hoodies in red. The clothes in the lower right corner is my testing area, where I play with new designs. A dress with the Inclusive Progress Pride flag in in the back of that area, but I can't get the seams to line up properly. Also in that area is a wet towel with my 'Viva la Queer" design. I still want to work on that one, but it will have to wait until after I get my old designs onto new mesh.

The "meshing mat" that I use to lay out mesh clothing to put designs on. It includes spaces for Legacy's Classic, Bombshell, and Perky bodies; Maitreya's Lara, Petite, Lara X, and Petite X; Prima's Busty and Petite, and the Reborn mesh bodies.

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 24/05/2026

I'm finally getting new shirts made for me new store, and that means new product shots. I'm glad I'm able to the Second Pride dance floor as a location for taking Pride-related pics. Of course, I'll use other parts of the Second Pride reginos for some pics, too.

Some of the pictures I too of the new Legislate tees in front of the stage at Second Pride.

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 13/05/2026

Now it'll be easier to decide what tee (or hoodie) to work on next. I created a list of the designs I need to upgrade, with product pictures. As I create a tee I can cross it out so I always remember at a glance what I've done already. #SecondLife #MeshClothing

I've been fighting with Freedom in Art's long-sleeve shirts for days. I want to put some of my designs on their long-sleeve shirts, but the front is split into two sections, and I always get a 1-pixel break between the two halves. But I found the solution! #SecondLife #MeshClothing #creators 1/2

I'm working on another hoodie for my store, but this one will be a benefit for the ACS Relay for Life in #SecondLife. I'm not sure how the design will translate to other mesh bodies, but it will be available in white and black. Unfortunately, it will only be for women this time. #CancerSUCKS

021

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 23/04/2026

I've finally laid out a spot for applying textures to mesh clothing for my store. I'm going to be redoing most of my tees to include support for Prima bodies, but I'm also working on some new things. First up? We the People sleeveless hoodies. #SecondLife

A "mat" with the Nanci's Naughties logomark sits on a slate floor. On the mat are 10 mesh sleeveless hoodies, all placed on a spot labeled for each mesh body they fit. The design on the hoodies says "We the People." The words "We the" are split across each breast, and a distressed American flag is placed under the word "People."

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 23/04/2026

I have a room in my new skybox that I didn't know what I'd use it for when I set it up, but it's turned into my office. I work on new clothing designs in it, and I have a virtual home studio set up for my music. #SecondLife

The office in my new house. The walls are white, with a slate grey floor, brown beams across the ceiling, and a door on the far right of the picture. Along the back wall are a drafting table with a stool, a desk with three monitors for a home recording studio, and a guitar and amp, with an effects pedal rack in front of the guitar. On the right wall in the back is a keyboard for when I want to lay down some keys.

In front of the desk, centered horizontally in the room, is a mat with the Nanci's Naughties triangle logomark. Sitting on it are two dresses, three sleeveless hoodies, and a strapless top. The clothes are being used to work on new items for my store.

041

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 22/04/2026

I've made a small tweak to the design, and I like it even better. Now I have to decide if I want to make a version for darker t-shirts or just limit it to my lighter color fabrics.

I have another WiP, this one being a tweak on my We The People design that's already in my real-world shop. What do y'all think? I may have to bring this variation to my real-world shop once I get it finalized. #SecondLife #WIP

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 19/04/2026

In my profile picture, I'm wearing my Legislate tee. I was never happy enough with it to sell it in SL, but it is available in my RL store. I'm working on a hoodie version for SL, and if I can get the women's version right, it will go in my new store. Yes, the men will get one, too. #SecondLife #WIP

Now that my bowling center has been opened in #SecondLife, it's time to turn my attention to the new home for Nanci's Naughties, my snarky t-shirt store. Setting up the store is a little harder this time. My past stores have been open plan, but the new store has a center display wall.

The new Nanci's Naughties store. There are so many blank walls, and I have to decide what will go where. This is the hardest store I've had to set up because of how it's all laid out.

Hey, y'all. It's a beautiful day in my neck of MA. I've been keeping busy getting things set up in #SecondLife. The Pride Lanes Bowling Center is finally having its soft opening, with the grand opening coming later this month. Taxi: maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/E...

The bowling center is coming along nicely. I've added places to sit for the lanes, and I started setting up the bathrooms. I found a sign similar to one I saw around here a while back, and I couldn't resist putting it up to direct folks to the bathrooms. #SecondLife #snark

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 05/04/2026

I finally got most of my new skybox house set up how I like it. I have a room I haven't touched, and a door has gone wonky on me, but I like how it's turning out. Next up: find a building for my bowling center and get it set up. #SecondLife

My new living room has a table and chairs, a sofa (changed from what came with the house), a nice-sized TV, and some superhero-themed art on the wall. Most of the walls are white, but the two walls between teh living room and the kitchen are red. The ceiling has dark brown beams with a black ceiling, and the floor is grey tile.

I replaced the center island and counter with a cooktop and sink, although I left the cabinets over the old island. I now have a shorter center island with a sink and a tray with a French press, mugs, and cream and sugar. Along the wall is a shorter kitchen set with cabinets, an animated stove and oven, and a double sink. Beside it is a double-sided refrigerator. The set came with cabinets and a wine refrigerator, but it doesn't fit along the wall, so I left it out.

My new bedroom features a raised area with a square tub with an outdoor deck chair beside it for chilling out. In front of the tub is a bed that I swapped out that sits on a lavender rug to cover the shadows that fit the original bed. On the opposite wall is a large fern (?) and a long, low table that has books on either end, with another television mounted over the center. Between the telly and the door is a large piece of art that I can't identify, and on the wall to the right of the door is a black and white photograph of a woman unbuttoning her blouse. Under the photo are steps to the upper platform with a mound of pillows between the tub and teh bathroom door.

The bathroom is a longish aisle with two windows with white curtains drawn back on the right side of the room, as well as a single window on the far wall. City views are visible through all of the windows in the house. On the left side of the room is an opening to the shower, which I replaced with a shower that has more fun bits for women to use. Beyond the shower in the center of that wall is a slightly elevated platform with a double mirror and two sinks. I replaced the cabinets and sinks with a pair of sinks that are more hers-and-hers than the his-and-hers sinks that came with the house.

Nanci Barthelmess @nancisnaughties.secondlife.bio · 02/04/2026

Hey, y'all. I haven't had a chance to stop in here for a while, but I have good news to share. I've closed Pride Lanes and my Nanci's Naughties store for now, but that's because I finally bought some new land. I won't say where yet, but I've already rezzed my new home up in the sky. #SecondLife

I looked at some new buildings for Pride Lanes, but what I'm finding is either not the right dimensions, not preview-able inworld, or or a lot more than I'm willing to spend. Oh well, it's back to looking for my next bit of land. I'm glad I can narrow the options down from my SL sofa. #SecondLife

My Never Again sign has needed tweaking so the wording is easier to read, and I finally fixed it. I'll update the products this evening, and I'll push out the updates to anyone who has already gotten it. I'll also update the design in my Spreadshop in the next day or two. #SecondLife #Palestine

Two versions of my Never Again design. Both versions feature the word GENOCIDE above the flags for Israel and Palestine. On the Israeli flag are the words NEVER AGAIN, and on the Palestinian flag are the words FOR ANYBODY. On the original version, the words used an almost blood red text, which was hard to read against the Palestinian flag. The text is now a bright red color, although it makes the first letter of ANYBODY a little harder to read. The two versions are labeled "Original Version" and "New Version" below the graphics to identify which version is which.

It's been a long time coming, but Nanci's Naughties is getting closer to having an inworld store again. I have to make (and hang) the sign and build the walls, but it's getting close. But whoops! I forgot to place one vendor as I spaced out the other vendors. #SecondLife #SLshopping #WIP

Inside the walls around the new Nanci's Naughties store at the Pride Lanes Bowling Center. The temporary walls are still up, but 12 vendors have been rezzed. Yes, I just realized one vendor didn't get placed properly.
