Trick or Treat At Hide and Seek!

Oh man, did I ever have the PLAGUE this week. But, it's passing me by and one of the best ways to get over the plague is by playing gacha! I swear! And one of my favorite sims, the Hide and Seek sim, is having a Trick or Treat Gacha event!




The hoodie and cute ghost t-shirt are both from the BOOM gacha. The hoodie is a "rare" find and the shirt is "uncommon," which means you might not get them right away. The Pink Lady pumpkin pail I'm holding is from Olive Juice, and is also a "rare" find. I love it because it's pink! In my mouth is an adorable flower basket from Awesome Blossom. I don't usually put things in my mouth [that's what she said] but this was too cute not to. And on my shoulder is devilish Lucikat from ANA_Mations. I love kitties, even devil kitties!

If you like gacha, go go go and play out there at Hide and Seek! You have from now until the 31st to play. Don't forget, gacha prizes make great gifts, and it's always fun to share with friends!

Here are the direct TPs to all the participating stores, just in case of lag or you want to just go to your favorite store!

Me and Mrs. Luv

My older sister taught me to love thrift stores from a young age. You can always find cool vintage things if you look hard enough! The newly released Mrs. Luv coat from Jane reminds me of something awesome we would have found at a thrift store.




Doesn't it look deliciously 70s?? I'm pretty sure my mom had a coat almost just like this, but in black, back in 1979. This wrap style coat has a great thick fur collar, and a wide belt to tie in front. I wasn't too sure about the print when I saw it on the photo, but after I put it on, all I could think was "Dy-no-mite!" It's just too adorable!!

I'm wearing Mrs. Luv in Autumn Plaid, and there is another in green plaid as well. And as everything else at Jane is, it's extremely affordable. Go and get to shopping!

Halloween Hunt For Autism Starts Monday!

The Halloween Hunt For Autism begins on Monday, and I really hope all of you take part! You can find fab Halloween items, such as this Creepy Fireplace Facade from Funky Junk!




This hunt does require a $50L donation to get started, with the money collected going to Autism Speaks. Head to the starting point and pay your $50L. You'll receive trick or treat bag to wear and the landmark for your next location. Be sure to wear your bag to get your treats! I believe there are 50 stores participating, but don't quote me on that.

Normally I don't endorse many hunts, but this one means a great deal to me. Two of my best friends have autistic children, and even though I have seen their daily struggles, I cannot imagine what it is they truly go through. Pay your $50L, get some good stuff, and help out a great cause. It's win win. :)

Today's Gaze - Golden Goodies

I'm not always a huge fan of gold. But give me some pretties for free or cheap, and I'll change my mind pretty darn quick!




I'm simply in love with the new Delphines from much loved Shiny Things! If you're a member of the subscriber group, head to the store and pick up your free gold Delphines. And check out the other new shoes, too! Oh Shiny Things, thank you for coming back to us.

I showed newness from Jane on Friday, but what I didn't mention is that there are a bunch of free Intrinsic Tanks for the taking! I have a great love of basic tanks, as I'm sure lots of us do, so getting these for free is just amazing!

At fri.day, there's a little corner with some discounted products, and I was able to score a 24.7 pack of the Short Cardis for less than $300L! You get 12 colors and there are options for shorter sleeves [like I'm wearing], long sleeves, and some different cuff options. Wonderful! Not discounted at fri.day, but still pretty inexpensive, I also picked up these Low.Rise jeans in the light wash.

You've probably heard of the 10-10-10 sale that's going on, but if you haven't, check out Callie Cline's blogpost on it. I was able to get this adorable Padma updo by hair machine Truth for just $110L. Oh, did I mention it's a FATPACK for that price? Oh yeah, you need it.

And one of my favorite finds at the Jewelry Fair, I got this I Love Autumn jewelry set from Primagine for less than $100L. Cute cute cute!

Okay, I know, I got long winded. Go shopping now!!

Sweet Jane

Oh, Janie Marlowe. How we have missed you! The former Mischief designer has finally opened up her new doors with Jane! And I am SO SO happy she has, because I am in love with the new items!!




How is Jane different from Mischief? We'll let Janie speak for herself:

"Well, main thing is no more full outfits. Why? Well, because you have enough pairs of black pants don't you? Instead, mini sets and corresponding pieces will be offered giving you the choice of which pieces you must have, and which pieces you can live without. It's just JANE, but better than you knew her :)"

I'm just so into this Aviator Jacket that I simply had to greedy pack the 3 colors. And the corresponding Aviator Sweater is just gorgeous, with or without the jacket! The new 52 jeans are simply perfect and you can never never have too many jeans.

Trust me, I bought more than I'm showing here. At super affordable prices, you can't help BUT to shop! Get yourselves over to Jane and get shopping!! Oh! And don't forget to join the group for a great group gift!!

Wrapped up in a coat of goodness!

Last night I was thinking, "You know what would be awesome? If I had a red coat." Imagine my joy when I logged in today and this pretty popped into my inventory!




From FIR & MNA, the Dorset coat is just pure goodness! I love that it goes just below my hips, making this little cutie very versatile. With double buttons on the front and a nice plaid lining, you can't help but just adore this coat! I'm wearing, of course, the women's version but there is a matching male Dorset coat as well! Lots of colors, too, so you will naturally want to get all of them to match your outfits.

There will be a charcoal version available at FIR & MNA for this week's 50L Friday, so be sure to pick it up!

And I'd be a sad panda if I didn't mention that this week's Truth releases are just adorable as can be! I'm wearing Tara, a really high, thick, luscious ponytail. If my hair was this thick and gorgeous for real, I'd be one happy, happy girl.

No more reading. Go shop!

Today's Gaze - Autumn Mix

Do you eat Autumn Mix around this time of year? It's a bag of candy corn, but it's got more in it - like big sugary pumpkins. Love it! Why am I bringing it up? Well, probably just because that's the name of this post. And also because I really want some.

Today's Gaze is a mix from my inventory. There's some old, some new, and in my opinion, it's just like those pumpkins - just sweet, yummy goodness. Some of it you can run out and purchase right now as it's just been released, some might be just lurking in your inventory waiting to come out, and some you just might not be able to get anymore. I think we often get overrun with new pretties and we forget that there's so much wonderful in our inventories just waiting for the chance to shine. I'm not going to explain all that I'm wearing today because I'm pretty lazy, but I urge you all to dig deep into your inventories and pull out some older pieces to wear. Just because it didn't come out in the past week doesn't make it any less beautiful. ♥
