one of these days i'll time how long it takes me to pick up freebies, lose them in my inventory even though i have a completely useless folder named "!!!BLOG ME FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!11," find said freebies, acquire more, get distracted by something shiny, remember that oops, i promised to blog things, take pics, hate them, upload them anyway, hate them some more, mess around in picnick, realize it's past my bedtime, realize i have yet to even get anywhere near blogger, yawn, stretch, get a drink, scratch my ass, and all that was like, yesterday.

ANYWAY.


the i <3 the starlust group is the group i think i want to hump mostest at the moment. their generosity is so frequent that i do believe my timbers are thoroughly shivered. some recent gifts include a bouffanty 'do from pudge and schadenfraude's scrumptulescent pair of dinosaur socks complete with wee prim dino toes. TOES.


[glasses: fnky, dame (not free, but they're color changing so it's like having 394578 pairs of sexy librarian frames, which may or may not be all you ever need)]

free speerit's owners have clearly gone completely mad or whatever because they just gave their group a ginormous array of gifts in one fell swoop... including the pink cheeked skin you can barely see here, because obviously i was more consumed with looking pathetic than, god forbid, showcasing a skin. the skin folder has several super fun, err, makeups (one has a dainty moustache drawn on). the obscenely short shorts were a twosome group gift which i belieeeeeve are still available in the notice archives. the emodorable shirt (which instantly puts this song in my head :D *pauses for an impromptu chair dance party* ) from the paper street soap company wasn't free, but for 25L i couldn't pass it up. there's tons of other affordable cuteness in the store including a bukkake skin, which little birds tell me will be the next hot makeup trend.


so speaking of the starlust, split pea's given away a couple fantastic hats to the starlust group as well, like this delectable thing:



[hair: DP, 04 (not free); skin: sin skins, valentine kitten (199L); blouse: aoharu, ruffle shirt dress (240L)


this isn't, admittedly, my first run in with split pea prettiness. i wandered into split pea a million days ago or whatever, and totes interrupted the sublimely talented melatonin hax while she was doing fancypants haberdasher store-ownery things. i bought some of her loverly wares and scampered away, and next thing i knew i had this wicked confection dropped on my head (which'll only set you back 100L at the store. did i mention the feathers and stars and things have a lazily charming underwater sway to them? because they do):




so, what else... sevan's changed their name to pink couture, and opened a new store and all... if you enjoy bright foofy little dresses a la cupcakes, you must visit this store. to celebrate the new beginning, they're giving away this flowy pink babydoll which immediately made me want to be blonde and (badly) channel my inner gogo:


[skin: fleur, boutique lotus shoujo florence (not free); hair: detour, hope (not free)]


and last i've got a pinuptastic bathing suit gift from artilleri's group. a girl can never have too many polkadotted things!:


[skin: aden, ebony torrid (900L); hair: truth, bridgette (not free)]; shoes: juicy slingbacks, (not free)


sweet jesus i'm worded out.
