11/2: Bumped this post to the top for the weekend, and added additional nomination guidelines below -- please read carefully before nominating!
There's lots of stores supporting Second Life brands, but which brands are your personal favorites? Iris Ophelia and I want to create a New World Notes Reader's Choice List for Second Life-based brands of all kinds, so please post your favorites in Comments. We will prominently blog those with the most total nominations during the holiday shopping season. Here's some guidelines:
- List your favorite five or less Brands in Comments, but no more than five!
- Can be any kind of SL-based brand -- fashion, housewares, weapons, vehicles, etc.
- Brand must have a Marketplace listing
- Must have one of the following: blog, Flickr, Twitter, Faceobook, my.secondlife.com, or Plurk account
- Must have new content from this year
- No brands with blatant knock-offs of other brands, RL or SL
- When nominating, post 1) brand's Marketplace listing, 2) the brand's blog, Flickr, Twitter, Facebook, my.secondlife.com, or Plurk link and 3) the brand owner's avatar name.
Please follow the guidelines very carefully, or your nomination may be discarded. Nominations end after the first week of November, so we can compile the Readers Choice list in time for holiday shopping! Please feel free to discuss your selections below, and be sure to share this post with other fans of SL brands, so they can nominate their favorites too!
UPDATE, 4:30pm: Some readers have wondered why we're asking for a Marketplace listing. Iris explains that well:
""A Marketplace listing lets people see what the brand has to offer immediately. They get much more click-through traffic than SLurls to shops because a lot of readers aren't in SL when they're reading blogs, so they're much more useful for readers and designers alike. SLurls are pretty useless if you're not able to get on SL right that minute. Marketplace stores also (usually) have the most up to date blog and shop locations for each brand, so if people do want to visit in-world but the shop has moved since the article was posted, a current MP storefront gives them easy access to the new location without having to fumble with SL Search. Think of it as a landing point for people to start from if they're interested. It's free and easy enough to set up, and though it's time consuming to list all your products, it's better to list your five favorite items than to list none at all. Even that is enough to drive traffic to your in-world location-- people who may otherwise never be exposed to your work in-world can stumble across it while browsing the Marketplace. That absolutely minimal presence, which you could set up completely on a Saturday afternoon, is basically free publicity, and anyone running a business should know how valuable that can be. A regularly updated MP store also lets people keep track of you without going out of their way (or capping their IMs with subscriber messages), like a Plurk or a Flickr account can, so that it's far less likely that someone will forget you even exist between releases. And, in a practical sense for this particular nominating process, it's can be a good way to easily identify if a designer is still actively creating or if they've been idle for years."."
So there's that. Also: The SL Marketplace has about 470,000 visitors.
Update 2, 4:55pm: While this Readers Guide will be based on total nominations, NWN reserves the right to disqualify brands with Adult-only content or other content that doesn't meet NWN editorial standards.
Update 3, 11/2: Added my.secondlife.com account as another nomination option.

It is a mistake to require a marketplace listing, because some truly awesome sellers specifically DON'T have a marketplace listing in order to have people shop at their inworld store. (where there is no commission btw). Also some great sellers don't have blogs either. But they are blogged continuously by others.

To Restate my premise: It is a mistake to require a marketplace listing, because some truly awesome sellers specifically DON'T have a marketplace listing in order to have people shop at their inworld store. (where there is no commission btw). Also some great sellers don't have blogs either. But they are blogged continuously by others.

"Also some great sellers don't have blogs either"
Don't have to have a blog. Like the guidelines say, "the brand's blog, Flickr, Twitter, Facebook, or Plurk link". Any of those are fine.

The problem with SL is, that with the diversity it has, you might get the result that every one answering posts different shops. And of course there are so many shops that I really found it hard to select the favorite 5. It would be more like .. post 5 favoirte shops for a certain style or topic. That would be considerable easier ;P
But anyway. Some good stores that I knew and like have been mentioned already but those I found myself to be shopping more at lately (favorites shift a lot for me) are:
Insanya (Tatyana Ultsch)
I knew this one for some time now and always returned there to satisfy my punky clothing needs:
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/19580
Erratic (Erratic Rain)
The newest addition to my favorites links:
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/58203
Graves (Jackie Graves)
Always and forever in love with Graves ... not only because I love science-fiction but also because Graves outfits are always perfectly mixable and they will fit with each other no matter what parts I would decide to choose. Some of my outfits use parts of 6 different Graves sets and they still look like they would belong together. What is there more to love? ;D
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/20249
Grasp (Asalt Eames)
I always recomend this store to people who look for nice urban-style clothing:
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/21087
Huamnoid (Marcus Adkins)
Because I can't really imagine someone making better dances. And I just love those videos in their store and said store is so well designed that I consider it to be one of the sxamples on why inworld shopping is great and will always be better then simply browsing the marketplace:
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/107586
But there are so many others ... Little Britain, Blitzed, Harsh! and KDC for the adult content shoppers, Ducknipple, B@R, the already mentioned Tonkastic and Maitreya, ORACUL of course ... so many *is burried under LMs for great shops*

Homes:
For reasonably priced, beautifully designed modern homes by Maven Homes (Cain Maven who also has another brand Quantum homes as well)
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/42256

Vehicles:
HaruMotors. Some of SL's most beautifully designed and well-scripted luxury vehicles.

Hair: I picked Alice Project for the extreme level of customization and fantastic variety of colors available from one hud. Excellent value, and beautiful mesh hair
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/18518
http://blog.alice-project.net/
This list will leave out most Second Life Skins, because most of the top-tier skin creators do not have a Marketplace Store. So...although these aren't part of my "official" picks, two of my favorite skin brands are Glam Affair and League. Glam Affair offers a very nice variety of beautiful skin tones with blonde, brunette and red eyebrow options. You will often find special edition skins at Collabor88 and The dressing room for bargain prices. Beautiful, high quality skins for a fantastic price.
League skins come in beautiful tones with lots of makeup options. Highly detailed, beautiful skins.

Just go to the marketplace, hit blank search, and sort bu "Best selling". Then hit any shop there, click the upper left seller name, and you get their SL profile with the social media stuff.
- Consumers' choice -
But this list will be totally different from the perception of any fashionista/SL nerd/hard core SLer/SL blogger/and so on. But it tells you about SL's reality beyond the "marketing" aspect, that you emphasis so much by the layout of your criteria.
