Ho-Hum

Just a quickie... to let you guys know I KNOW I've been gone a while. RL and then laziness when RL is quiet have kept me from you! So here I am contemplating what I'm going to blog about next. There's a lot going on right now... <3

Cassiopea by Glam Affair


Isn't she pretty? I have been waiting for this skin since seeing the preview on flickr. I'll show more later, but I wanted so much to do a quick post to show you guys!!

PS- All I did to this photo is crop it. I did nothing to enhance the skin itself. So pretty!!!

Brow Beating

Ok, so sometimes I decide I want to do something. And usually... I get it done and all is good. Well, this one time.. I called on my friend Cole to help me highlight some male/female poses... but they didn't make it through my questionable editing process fast enough. He was sadface, so I promised him a blog post. Here is me NICELY asking him to help me out:


Thank you for all your help, Cole!! ...even though I didn't do what I was supposed to... (He really only likes me when I speak in my British accent.)

This pose is "Say Uncle" by Pulling Strings

HAIR FAIR HAIR FAIR HAIR FAIR!!!

Ohhi, did I mention Hair Fair 2012 is going on RIGHT NOW?! Well, it is. Here are a few of my favorites that I snagged and want to share with you:





Top to bottom:
Epoque - Stabilizer
Wasabi Pills - Aida
Slink - Mica
Elikatira - Morning

I enjoyed all these, and more. The Wasabi Pills hair is not my norm, but I thought it was fun. I will admit that far and away, my favorite style is the Elikatira one. It's retro, sassy, and so much fun. Go check out Hair Fair!! xoxo

GLAM AFFAIR SALE!!

Glam Affair is having a 50% off sale on her skin lines. This is a can't miss, ladies. Try Giselle, Leah, and all the other goodies!!

ALSO... Aida has treated us to a new skin called "Roza". This skin is only available at Collabor88 (3 make-ups, 188L each), One Voice, Glam Affair (she has one out in the middle for 70L), and, as featured below, one for 70L at The Dressing Room. I went with two photos of this skin because I find it so very versatile. Roza is awesome and I really hope Aida plans to grace us with a full release of her:



So far, this is only available in one tone, Natural, like she did with Mia. Again, I am really hopeful she will do a full release of this one. Roza is beautiful!!! Love you guys to pieces!

Boom!

There are several stores I frequently check for new cuteness. I realized I hadn't been to Boom for a while. Omgah! So I went... and found this "backless tee":


I'm all shy and demure in that pic, huh? 

What I'm Wearing:
Hair: Elikatira - Abbey
Skin: Glam Affair - Leah
Dress: Boom - Baggy Backless Tee
Shoes: Celoe - Xylia Pumps
Pose: Glitterati - Nude 6


I realized in editing I did not get a shot of the back... and it's not called "backless" for nothin'! The back dips way down, and it's so pretty! The only issue I seemed to have with this is in the shoulders. Mine showed through when I moved a certain way. It won't stop me from wearing it because it's not all the time, but be sure to demo demo demo!! xoxo

Maitreya Jeans!

Maitreya recently released several items, among them... this fantastic flared mesh jean in 8 colors. Other than the Buid jeans I blogged earlier this month, I had yet to find a pair of MESH jeans that didn't make me look like an "invisible pony rider". The gap is a little wider than my true shape, but nothing too shocking. Maitreya did very well with this release. Jeans, tanks, HAIR, and a very pretty dress. Make sure you check them out here.


Hair: Exile - Kiss Me
Skin: Glam Affair - Mia
Top: fri.day - Striped Capsleeve
Jeans: Maitreya - Mesh Flare Jeans

Rompers!

There seems to have been a run on rompers for the summer season in SL! It makes me happy, because I think they're adorable. Coldlogic has some great ones, and GField released this amazing contribution:


Cute, huh?

Hair: Slink - Angel
Skin: Glam Affair - Mia
Romper: GField - Halter Bow Romper
Shoes: Celoe - Zoe Pumps
Pose: Glitterati - Long Hair

As a side note, Slink released this hair at the Hair Fair last year and it's, in my opinion, one of the best bobs on the grid. <3 it!!

Izzie's Dailyn Skin

Izzie's released a new skin named Dailyn. While it's not ground-breaking, it's very pretty! Again, if you or a friend is looking for a good skin bargain, Izzie's is most certainly worth a look. Her technique continues to improve. Case and point: The lips on this skin are lovely and lush. 1170L for a fatpack, it comes with 4 different brow options, which is always awesome! Lots of makeup options, too! Here is the body and a close up on the face with minimal to no editing:



Check out Dailyn at Izzie's! xoxo

Bubblegum!

One of my favorite bloggers instated "Bubblegum Weekends" several months (or more!) ago.. inspiring us to go a little crazy with pink hair on the weekends. I've never done it! Until now.

Slacker...

Boo real life! It took me away for too long. Ok... that, and I'm a slacker. I don't have an official post today other than to let you all know I haven't forgotten you and will be back in action within the next few days.

Look! I was contemplating everything as I got ready for game night with Elle:


Love you guys! xoxo

Izzie's Cuteness!

Hiiii! So, I headed over to one of my favorite stores in SL, Izzie's. I can always find something cute there. And, sure enough, I did! Cut off shorts and a precious striped tank! This tank reminds me of something I wore as a kid.. but, you know, without the boobs.

Also, if you're looking for a good price on a pretty skin, Izzie's should be on your list. She offers fatpacks for 990L! I could buy FIVE packs of her skins for the price of one of some of the others I wear! And they're very pretty. The price makes up for any minor flaws I saw.

Here's my whole Izzie's look!


Wearing:
Hair: [e] - Over
Skin: Izzie's - Bonita
Tank: Izzie's - Striped Summer Top
Shorts: Izzie's - Ripped Denim Shorts

Have I caught your attention, yet? I hope so. Izzie's is awesome!

Kawaii Fair!

There's fun and cute shopping to be had at the Kawaii Fair, going on right now! I love the build:

Kawaii 1:
Hair: [e] - Daffodil (mesh!)
Skin: Glam Affair - Leah
Dress: Mayden Couture - Mimi (Kawaii Fair! Mesh!)
Shoes: Nardcotix - Gator Peep Toe
Earrings: Mandala - Senjyu Tokyo Neon
Pose: LAP - Barbie12

Kawaii 2:
Hair: !lamb. - Sweet Jane (mesh!)
Skin: Glam Affair - Leah
Top: AstonisHD - Tuff Cupcake (Kawaii Fair!)
Skirt: AstonisHD - Jean Skirt (Kawaii Fair!)
Shoes: *GF* - Alex
Pose: LAP - SA - Are You Sure

To be honest, there were a lot of fun goodies to pick up. I found myself wondering if I am entirely cheap, or if 200L for a kitschy necklace was too much. This was a necklace I could see myself throwing on once, maybe twice... I don't know, maybe I'm just a jaded blogger sometimes. But I know I'm not cheap. I spend a lot to support the designers of SL. *shrugs* Either way, go check out Kawaii Fair. xoxo

Pose Fair 2012: Pulling Strings

She has several more poses she is releasing, so this is just a teaser. Just make sure you make it to Pose Fair to see it all. I've seen the build, and it's worth the bald head (KEEP YOUR SCRIPTS LOW, LADIES!!) to check it out!

League - Jen

*Sigh* So, yes... League came out with a new skin. It's called Jen. It's beautiful! This skin seems to look really good on everyone. I've seen it on a lot of different people, and it doesn't disappoint at all. If you're in the market for a new skin, this is one you simply MUST try.


I will have more goodies to share this weekend! Stay tuned! <3

Happy Monday After!

...Easter, of course! I hope your sugar hangovers are sweet (heh) to you!

I have something to share for those of you who are super-frustrated with your prim lashes! I picked up the Filthy group gift for April and found these fantastic tattoo layer lashes in it!! I had seen them on a friend who has unusually shaped eyes (more round than almond-shaped), and they looked so good. She didn't have to try to fit them because they fit right away! I don't generally have a huge problem fitting lashes, but really wanted to share these because a.) They look pretty damn good, and b.) It's another fun option for us! If you're not a member of the Filthy group, it is 250L to join, but there are many perks... such as a 50% discount the first weekend a new skin is released.

A close up on the eyes:


And the whole face with the tattoo layer lashes:


So give yourself a gift and go check out Filthy!

Springtime

I am really excited that it's spring. It was a warm winter, but I'm ready for the flowers!! So ready, in fact, that I pulled out my Daisy poses from Pulling Strings and snapped a quick pic of what I find to be a frighteningly precious outfit! :)

My Talented Friends!

Forgive my indulgent post today, guys, but seriously, sometimes you just gotta point out awesomeness!!

You all know I have an extremely talented friend in my BFF, Elle Kirshner. She designs furniture in her shop, Second Spaces. She also has a pose shop called Pulling Strings. She started her own look of the day posts on flickr, and she has a ever-so-slightly read (ha!) blog about home stuff in SL. She's done pics for me on this blog, as well, and I suppose I realized recently that I never gave her the enormous props she deserves for all the hard work she puts into making our second lives prettier! Check out her awesome shops/blog/flickr, please! Kthx!

THAT being said, I also want to plant a little focus on my friend, Vlad Sharktooth, who is a master with photoshop! He wasn't in SL for a little while, and the first night he actually came around while I was around, I demanded he take my picture! And because he knew I would not shut up until he did, he told me to put on something pretty and he'd indulge me. We did two. One I have linked above, as well as used it for my header... and the other he has yet to finish. He will be taking paid clients as soon as he gets a few things sorted, and finishes the free stuff for his greedy friends! But here is his flickr, and you need to check his stuff out!!


This pic was taken on the Mayfair sim! xoxo

BUY ALL THE PANTS!

There is a FANTASTIC new release at The Sea Hole! I've always loved what Drinkinstein Sorbet comes out with, but these pants really impressed me. I love the texture, and the fit is so pretty! There are several colors available and I can not urge you enough to go check them out!!!


As a side note, I always respect designers who are able to take suggestions with grace. There was an issue with the alpha layer that came with the demo when I first grabbed it. I loved the pants so very much that I dropped a notecard on Drinkinstein and asked if she would consider fixing it. She was extremely gracious, and as it turned out, didn't realize she hadn't put one of the alphas in that she had intended. She was so friendly and understood my intention was not to criticize. In fact, it was completely selfish because I wanted those pants, damnit! ;) Thanks for being SO awesome!

Ok, now I want to point out the awesomeness that I discovered via another blogger! Ohmaiblog had this eyeliner on display a few days ago (here!) . I loved the look of it and followed the link to Marketplace and bought this pack of eyeliners by Soapherian, and they're totes awesome! I liked it SO much, I decided to buy a pack for a friend, too! Get it now!


Details!:
Hair: Lelutka - Toni
Skin: Glam Affair - Leah
Top: Boom - Cashmere Sweater
Pants: Sea Hole - Silk Dupioni Beachcombers
Shoes: Maitreya - Flip Flops
Eyeliner: Soapherian - Ultra Eyeliner


Two assignments! Go to The Sea Hole and get pants! Follow the link to Marketplace and get that fabulous eyeliner pack! <3

Maitreya + Truth

That's like saying "peanut butter and chocolate" to me. It's such a yummy combination! This weekend, Maitreya released some basics that I am soomgahsuperexcited about! Jeans, boots, leggings, and my personal favorite has to be the mesh skirts available in tons of colors and three lengths! Below the knee, above the knee, and mini. Yeah, I can see myself needing several of these...

And now to Truth. Mr. Hawks treated us to 3 releases this week. Two are mesh, and one is not. All are very cute. I'm featuring the Savina here.


This Stuff:
Hair: Truth - Savina (new!)
Skin: Glam Affair - Leah
Top: Decoy - Manzano
Skirt: Maitreya - Mesh Pencil Skirt Lth2 (new!)
Shoes: GField - Alex
Pose: LAP - BG1 - Barbie10

Ok, so I've linked you to Truth's Truth District store, because he puts his new stuff there, too, and it's usually way less crowded than the big store. If you want to check all his stuff, though, just go here.

Aoharu Trench

I got this trench coat a while ago, but kept forgetting to feature it. Isn't it precious? Aoharu has some pretty nice mesh stuff, so I urge you to go check it out! But, as always with mesh, remember to grab a demo first!


I feel a little bit like Twiggy here. <3
