Post #79 The Comeback

Been away for a while again, but back!  Busy with school and stuff, oy... Was great to get back on SL and put some sweet outfits together.  

 First thing I did when I logged on was hit up The Dressing Rooms, and found these awesome pants at The Dressing Room Blue.  Two pairs of jeans for 70L!  You can't go wrong with that price... I need to make my hips a bit narrower to fit into the small (or make them wider for the medium)... but they fit pretty good.

Still love my Lelutka shoes.

Post #69 Feel Like a Bee

I was really excited when I went to Chemistry today to get the landmark for this tanktop and found they had hair there!  I do love hair and I was quite impressed with their offering.  This was one out of three releases and I think it was well done.

 There is a sale going on at The Sea Hole, as they have moved.  I love these mesh pants so much they are so cute.  I give props to The Sea Hole for being so original and really cool.  I love that store so much.  I remember when they were so small and they have grown so much.  Definitely one of my fave stores, and 50L for many selected items right now.

 Nice butt!  I feel like a bumblebee in yellow and black!

Got these boots at Deco.  It was for FLF but I believe they are there now at regular price.  I paid 50L for them and never got the first pair and had to buy them again, sent a card to the owner and told them what happened along with proof of purchase.  They never contacted me back so watch out if you accidentally buy two things there or buy again if you don't recieve an item.  You might not get a reply.

Post # 62 Burnt Umber

Burley has some pretty neat hair.  I don't know if it's super popular with everyone, most of the people I see when I go shopping there are probably controlled by younger people.  I mean I see a lot of the "invisible pony rider" types there.  I have nothing against them but some people definitely do.  I think these are older people.  I am sure this is not 100% but a lot of times I can tell the general age of someone in Second Life.  Even the ones that are dressed really, provacatively, shall we say?  This has nothing to do with my post.  It's just me babbling.

 I like the slight 'fetal alcohol syndrome' look of this skin.  I look bitchy and it's rad.  I was gonna take off the sweater for the pictures because I know they don't sell it anymore.  It's a good sweater.  I remember when Sweetest Goodbye was a really big store with expensive stuff.  Now it's another store, Monso I think, and there is a small section of select SG stuff in there.  I went there yesterday to see if this sweater was still there but it's not.  They had a cute mini skirt too to go with it.  I guess mesh killed the prim like video killed the radio star.  Or maybe the SG people just decided they didn't want to have clothes anymore.  Anyways, I bought lots of their stuff when they closed.  I don't do anything on Second Life but take take pix and blog so the clothes are kinda useless to me since they don't exist anymore.

Omg I remember when I saw these shoes at Aoharu back in the day.  The picture they have of them makes them look simply ethereal.  They are pretty nice but don't turn me into an instant gel on the lense angel.  I had to remove the invisaprims from the shoes a while back and find an alpha layer that fit.  Think I'm using my Maitreya one.  I ike the Whippet & Buck skirt, even if it's primmy (is it just me or does the name of this store sound extremely DIRTY)

totally lovin the way everything i'm wearing is 'creaaaaamy'...

Post #50 Zip Down Skirt

Oh wow don't we look professional.  Hair all up, business type bag, sensible shoes.  It's not like me to dress so fancy, I feel like I should be giving some sort of SL presentation.  On what I don't know.  Maybe how to be an armchair detective, or a spider solitaire expert (why am I addicted to this silly game after years of ignoring it on my computer?), or perhaps how to google your weird health symptoms to end up with some horrible disease.  Damn you WebMD!!!

Or maybe how to remember to do up your skirt zipper.  I have to admit the first time I saw this skirt I was like "oh no way I can go there with that".  It stuck in my mind though and I just had to end up buying it.  I was with a friend at the time and she had to get one too.  Of course a coy little thing such as myself had to make it look all fancy so the slutty part was a suprise.  Business in the front, potential hooker in the back.

I do love the clove cigarette in a holder getup from The Sea Hole.  I also love that past Collabor88 things are in her store for you to get, at the same price after the cycle ends.  That was a bad sentence! This was from the Parisian set.  I also love the Ghost hair from !lamb.  I think it was the first hair of their's that i owned.  The shoes are cool too because you buy them kinda blank and can change the color, add texures, get rid of the strappy part and do all kinds of things to it, all for the low price of 95L.  Maybe I'll pass myself off as a professional shoe color artist!

Post #44 Swanky Shorts

I felt like making some crazy daring outfit to go with my new mesh shorts.  Because really I couldn't find anything that really went with them.  Being leather, I knew I had to look pretty glam and stuff, which is not a look I really wear.  I don't know if this is glammy or not.  LoL.  But I had fun smooshing clothes old and new together.

 I bought this gold bikini/glove/leggings set at The Sea Hole a while ago when they had a half off sale.  I actually thought it went pretty good with the shorts.  I like the two colors together.  Like earthy with some water thrown in.  The skin was really nice, you can get it at Collabor88 in three different makeups.  Glam Affair = glam look...amirite?

Great rings at The Dressing Room Blue.  Had a lot of fun changing the colors on them.  Good waste of 10  minutes.  The necklace I'm excited about as I lurve Kosh to death.

Oh So Glamoritey...(is that a word)

Post #33 True Blue

I found this absolutely lovely mesh skirt at Collabor88.  I really sent some linden love to the designers this month.  And I'm not even half done buying what I want.  I'm so thankful for great quality events such as this.  The prices are so low and the items blow me away.  And I love the themes.  Have you ever checked out the theme boards for the events they choose?  They are so pretty!  Collabor88 Main Website

I recieved this free skin from Mojo, and at first I didn't really like it.  I usually wear super light hair and the dark tan & eyebrows look strange.  So I threw on a darker shade of hair and it was a great improvement!  Now I will make use of the darker shades in blonde that I get in fatpacks and ignore.  I kinda felt a bit 'sexah' in this skin so put on a sweet black top from Ronsem to look the part... of a tart!  haha.

The skirt from The Seahole (of course) mellowed out the tarty look.  I ran to G. Field and got their new boots in black (if you like these boots I suggest you buy the fatpack, so you don't end up like me just going to the store everytime you need a new color and end up spending 2x the price by buying them one at a time, because trust me these boots are major versatile!  You need these boots!).

I took pictures today in my house.  I thought the skirt matched my decor! Hehehe.

Post #26 Shopping Spree! (and a freebie)

Oh boy did I ever blow my weekly budget today!  New dress, new shoes, new hair, too many poses, and a free skin!  It was kind of an accident as I was looking for a new skin and since I try not to buy the 6 zillion low priced template stuff on the grid, I started going to the more expensive shops.  First place I hit up was Al Vulo.  Jeez!  The April gift was so pretty!

Since it was quite tan and tan skins kind of turn me off, reminding me of glamazons dancing in 80's themed clubs, I thought I should soften it a bit and try to dress as bloody innocent I could.  Fashionably Dead sent out info on a new dress they had just released so I thought I would check it out.  I like their original styles very much.  The dress is mesh, and fit me so well.  It also has added flowers to it that make it special.  I bought it no questions asked haha.

This dress is the BEST!

I found the perfect shoes to match in the same shop!  How lucky was that!

I got all the great poses at the Pose Fair.  They are made by D.Luxx Poses.

Reasonably priced and pretty nice!  Check them out!

Post #18 Collabor88 & Paris

April's Collabor88 is here and I teleported my excited little avatar into the darkness that is the store entrance.  Man it was packed!  I got all rubberbandy with my walking and kept mowing people down and walking forward, backward, all over.  Finally I said 'ugh no way' and logged out.  Came back later, about 4am to be exact and it was a lot more manageable.

Fell in love with this super cute Kyoot top even though it wasn't mesh.  I've become a mesh snob sorta.  But.. I'd rather have a primmy top that looked good than a generic mesh template (i wanted to type platelet !?).  The pants are really nice in detail and I might go back and get more colors although I really shouldn't as I already have six thousand different types of capris in my inventory.  Yes I enjoy exaggerating numbers.

The Sea Hole has some fabulous jewelery and a great dress design this month (mesh too!).  I have to pick up all the colors of the jewelery.  It comes with a cigarette & holder.  Very "classy broad" look.  LoL.   The skin is Illusory and I quite like this brand.  They do remind me a bit of Atomic, (how they make my face look, rather bitchy but not too much).  I wore the toothy smile skin for this.

Since the theme was french this round I had to find somewhere french to take pix.  So I typed in 'paris' and ended up at this place, it's pretty nice.  They have an eiffel tower and lots of fake 1912 looking people standing around.  I didn't want to be obvious standing next to the tower so I chose a simple street to stand around and act like an attention ho.  I'm not qute sure if my outfit is more french or more sailor.  I'll settle with french sailorette.

Post #12 Cold Logic Mesh Goodies~!

Fricking awesome new top at Cold Logic.  I got the notecard today of a new release and I teleported in and the place was packed!  I had just bought these new boots by Ten"10 and I wanted something to go with them!  So I fell just in total love with this cute top and the color matched perfectly.  I even got a compliment from a random stranger telling me they loved the look.  She had on another new release, which I bought too and will get to later.  Anywho, picked up a few things, this is my fave, and it fits perfectly and looks really great.  I'm a size small.  Oh yah, I read on Seraphim that su.vida was closing, I had never heard of it before but everything was 10L so of course... I picked up this dreamcatcher arm tattoo.  They had those template jeans there so I didn't buy any clothes.  Just tats.

 Of course when I enable my maximum graphic options on Starburst or whatever it's called (oh Firestorm I mean)... Shit gets 'real' and I can't move or click stuff without serious lag.  So what I have been doing is setting up my pose, and then clicking on 'enable deathly shadows'.  Of course stuff starts fading in and out and it takes like 20 seconds for the picture to snap, AND I don't seem to have the habit of checking pix I've taken so I end up finishing up my pix, changing into something else, looking at my pictures, realizing my tattoo and undershirt were blurry and the only pix that had them clear my eyes are closed... oy!  Of course it's too late to go back, as I am not standing in the same spot, I forgot what my lighting was at, and I really don't care by this point.
Boots are awesome though!  I asked a girl at Collabor88 where she got them.  I had seen quite a few chicks wearing these boots.  I got the brown ones cuz everyone else had the black or white ones.

YOU NEED this top!!
The place I took pictures at was a really nice little coffee bar.  I was looking for a totally different place and ended up here by accident.  They had great music and lots of couches and chairs to hang out on.  It was empty but I'm sure they probably have some sort of action going on some time during the week.

Post #2 Visiting Drowsy

I went to the Drowsy sim to look for a store (BP*) and all I really found was some sort of boat.  Didn't find what I was looking for but did find a cute swing set and pretty scenery to take some cute pictures in!

Still wearing those awesome green d.select green nylons.  I picked up the cutest red shoes at Collabor88 a couple of days ago, and I don't know if those colors really do go together but in my world they do!  I loved sitting on the swing, since I haven't been on one for years.  I didn't actually move of course, but you get the gist of the 'fantasy'. 

I TOTALLY FELL ON MY HEAD AFTER THIS JUMP AND HAD TO BE KEPT UP FOR 12 HOURS!!!  Totally worth the concussion though.  That boat place is behind me.  Took me like five minutes to get back up the stairs in that darn boat, I kept getting knocked back down, lol.  Actually I'm not even SURE it was a boat.  Some people are just to creative to have their inventions labeled I guess.

I left drowsy to find a backpack i again checked out on this really cute girl at a dance club... I love those little snuggly short girls that look all dolly like.  Yeah so this place was called JPK Village, some sort of steampunk place.  Didn't find the thing I was looking for.  But LOTS OF BIRDS!!  Love this purse I got from a gatcha fair.  It's Tee*fy, which is one of my fave stores.  Goes great with the nylons no?

 Love the skirt too, the criss crosses on the side make me feel a bit slutty, something I don't usually do but the nylons underneath totally give me back my good girl cred.  I actually saw some chick wearing this skirt (in a much more sluttier fashion) at a sales event and totally clicked on her to find out where she got it muahaha!  I do that way too often.  But I sure have found a LOT of great stores that way!

I love this picture.  The bird tweeting at me... the green radioactive goo on the ground... makes no sense.  Reminds me of a quote from Hayley off American Dad "Evolution is like Ikea for animals".  I've always wanted to use that quote somewhere. 

I'm so happy my nails aren't all discombobulated from lag...

Ciao!
