Steppin' Out

Spring has finally finally arrived!! I couldn't be more excited because ugh, I hate winter so much. Well, okay, I think snow is pretty and all, but I love spring!




Coldlogic welcomed spring with a big release this past week! I love a great halter, and the Pruitt one is super cute. But I definitely love the Jay pants! They are so cute and casual, and very perfect for spring!

A few weeks ago, my plurk friend Amaya of The Big O asked for some shoe inspiration. Well, you know me and shoes! I tossed a few pics at her of shoes I liked, and was pleasantly surprised when she actually made one of them! The LB heels are fun and ladylike, but also great for pairing with dresses or jeans or whatever you'd like. They are add-ons for the SLink medium feet, so don't cry if you go to get them and you can't wear them because you still have janky system feet.

I hope everyone had a great spring weekend!

So Let Me Be A Sparkle One Night

FaMESHed and The Arcade are still going strong!




IKON has released mesh eyes for FaMESHed! I'm wearing the Spectral eyes in blue. They're easy to adjust to fit really any eye holes [I guess you'd call them eye holes??] and you get the sizes like you get with the regular IKON eyes. I am not SURE if you can wear two different colors, but I don't see why you wouldn't be able to.

I've been wearing the Daisy hair by D!va for The Arcade probably since the moment I got my hands on it! It's all messy and lovely and I think the stars on the headband are perfect for the holiday season. Of course, you CAN turn the stars off...but why would you want to?

I hope everyone is staying warm and safe this weekend!

Hey-yay-yay Yeah!

The title of my post today doesn't mean anything. I've been watching a marathon of Dawson's Creek lately and on the Netflix version, there is a different theme song than when it first premiered, and now it's stuck in my head.

Now let's look at my legs and feet!




Fri.day has made some awesome things lately! The new Lovegood.Heels are for the Wizarding Faire and they are precious. They are made for the SLink flat feet [the AvEnhance version] so you'll need to have those. They are the sweetest little mary jane style shoes with a thick kitten heel. They come in all the House colors [like Lion, Snake, etc], plus some basic dark colors.

The new Knee.Socks are the perfect pairing with the shoes, too! I've been looking all over for some great socks that have mesh tops and SLink appliers, and these are just what I wanted. The mesh tops come in different sizes, but they are modify if you need to fix them to fit your legs.

I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!

Toothache!

Ouch, I have a toothache tonight! And why? Because of Candy Fair! It's so sweet, it made my teeth hurt! Candy Fair starts on October 4th, but I got a chance to head in early today to look around.




There are three sims of sugary goodness that includes everything from clothes to poses to kids stuff to home decor. I will admit that I didn't care for a lot of the clothes that I've seen so far because I kept stumbling onto candy colored corsets, but I lost my mind in the poses and home decor section! The things for the kiddos are so so cute, too! There really is something for everyone at the Candy Fair.

The Candy Fair starts on October 4th and runs until October 18th. Remember to bring a toothbrush!

Anything But Ordinary

There's a big new Coldlogic release today! Lots of goodies just perfect for this time of the year!




I just adore the new Hedley tops! It's a great knit cardigan with three-quarter sleeves and a fun fringe. You can wear it with or without the tank top. I think it goes perfectly with the Seyfried jeggings. The awesome part about the jeggings is that they come with 3 different cuffs, so they are a little easier to pair under boots.

Happy shopping!

Ooh, it's hard on the man.

A new round of The Boutique opens up tomorrow, September 15th, and it's a great theme this time: Fifth Avenue! I threw together a look with some of my favorite pieces from this round. Although I normally go for more girly pastels, I thought this was classy and kind of sexy. [Well, as sexy as I seem to get, anyway.]





We'll see you at The Boutique tomorrow!

Song of the Woods

I went to The Seasons Story today and simply fell in love with the Kalli2 hair from D!va! I had told myself that my next blog post would not take place in our autumn woods, but well... rules are made to be broken at times, am I right?




D!va seriously does the best messy hair. All the cute little wispies and the messy side braid combined with the awesome leaves and fruit band makes this just the most awesome frolic-in-the-leaves hair style ever! You also have the option of turning off the fruit on the band, or hiding the band altogether so you can wear this hair any time of the year.

If you haven't hit up FaMESHed yet, you need to because Emery has these awesome Mykonos pleated long skirts available. I'm not always huge into maxi skirts, but I feel like this one works really well with this time of the year because while the skirt is sheer, there is good coverage up at the top.

I have more dancing in the leaves to do, and you need to go shop!

We'll Just Be In Our Melody

I think I've finally pulled myself out of my Arcade induced haze. *snickers* And that means I'm so so ready for fall! I threw this look together today just by playing in my inventory. Although we do get involved a lot of the time trying to promote the newest things, that doesn't mean that the older items in our inventory need to be forgotten!







FaMESHed and Collabor88 are going strong, and The Arcade still has people beating down the door, so I'm sure you all have a lot more to do this Monday than read. Have a great shopping day!

A Girl Can Do What She Wants To Do

Did you know that a long time ago, I used to be a model? Yep! And one of my very very first modeling jobs was for SySy's. I was a live model for her in her store, and even got to model for her on a Second Life tv show! Of course, that was many years ago and no one is paying me to stand around looking pretty any more, but I still love when SySy comes out with something new!




The new Geste halters and skirts are awesome! They come in both florals and solids, but I wore one of each for this photo.

I think it's time to just go stand around looking pretty!

Is It Raining With You

Collabor88 started today! Woot woot! The theme this month is "Rain or Shine" and the designers have totally had fun with the theme as usual! I know there has been some debate lately, so I'll just say this: C88 was NEVER intended to be an event where people would sell everything for 88L. I have been blogging C88 from the beginning and never never never was it said that all the items would be 88L. If things seemed less expensive in the beginning, it was because it was in the pre-mesh days when a lot of things were less expensive! If you have a problem with the price of these items, you're certainly not required to shop there. But I hope you still will go to Collabor88 and support the designers, because these items are pretty darn awesome. :)

Collabor88 is open! And ladies, it's our month, because there are so many soft, lovely, girly items! [There are a few things men will like, too. I promise!] The theme this month is "New Romance" so expect ruffles, lace, and soft colors. Collabor88 also has a great new build, so you guys will have lots to see this month! See you there!

You don't drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there.

Zodiac is still going strong and honestly, I think this might be the best round yet. Now, I know I've said that before, but wow, this round is something! If you haven't been yet, hit it up this weekend!

So Really I Better Scurry

Hello readers! Did you miss me? I know, probably were too busy shopping to notice I was gone, right? I don't blame you a bit! Sooo much goodness has come out in the past week!




Collabor88 is unbelievable this month! I'm so happy with the Chaud dresses from Ingenue, I hardly know what to do. I've said it time and time again, but I adore simple pieces that you can dress up or down in so many ways, and this fits the bill! I dressed this one up with the Baboushka fur collar and fur hat from Maxi Gossamer at C88. I love all the fluff! And Fashionably Dead has some awesome Knee High mesh socks [the tops are mesh, not the actual sock part] that I couldn't resist wearing. My thighs might get cold, but who cares when I look this cute, am I right?

Also at C88, Trompe Loeil has the cutest little mesh winter cottage called Frostbite! Because it sits on its own snowpile and has trees, you really could just put it anywhere! The inside is basically just one room and has a fireplace. Cozy!

You have more shopping to do, and so do I!

Here In My Deep Purple Dreams

Collabor88 is open! If you like fun, colorful, kitschy things - this is definitely the month for you!




Trompe Loeil did this awesome Dreamy Genie bottle and oh my God, is it cool! You can fit a bunch of your friends in it, and it comes in different colors and in both adult and PG versions.

My lovely lilac Cindy shoes are from Ingenue and I can't call them anything other than adorable! I love a great wedge, and with the sweet little bows on the tops, they'll be making a lot of appearances on my feet!

D!va brings us the Norma hair, a messy curly short style that makes me want to just put my fingers in my hair and play with the curls all day. The hair comes with 2 different bangs.

In non-C88 news, last night I had a nice little conversation with PXL skins designer Hart Larsson. What a sweet guy! I'll admit that I'm not really very familiar with his skins [I tend to find a skin I like and stick with it for ages] but he introduced me to his Kate skin. I just love it! It has a very cute face and lots of makeup options. Total love!
