Fionay, creator of Little Fish dropped by to see how her store is doing caught me vaccuming...I mean, I just had the urge to, with this new Catherine Dress!

Vacuum Service

Little Fish - Catherine Dress in Blue, not free, but seriously cute

ALB

After a good clean around Fionay's store I went back home to have a nice long bath...then changed into this set of white lingerie...as you do...

ALB ROMANCE lingerie set by AnaLee Balut, $0L for one month!!!

Ow My Head

So I woke up at 4am this morn after a sum total of an hours sleep! Hangover ahoy!! Not only was it NYE for me, Q's hubby got back yesterday too FTW!

p&p4

Anyhoo, logging in at 4am led me to Prim & Pixel for a mini hunt. These silks are your prize, divided up into 5 snowflakes for you to find. They're very well done, and I didn't have to adjust the prims, yay! I hadn't been to this store in a long while, Halloween was the last time I think. It's all changed now and an absolute pleasure to wander round. Check out the beautiful skin. This is a New years gift from Tokeo Plastik. You'll need to join the group and head to the main store with your tag active.

p&p3

This lushness is the Prim & Pixel POE gift, which I stumbled upon during the hunt. Royal Purple is one of my favie colours, never fails to make me smile!

p&p5

The cute lingerie was a group gift from Damiani, and I've shown it with a skin I got from Prim & Pixel. Heaps of you asked about the masked skin Sasy made, so when I found this I was terribly excited! It was a Halloween gift, but it's back out and still free, I don't know how long for though, so best to grab it now.

p&p2

This powerful piece is from Luna's Boutique, a new to me store that I found through a Fashcon notice. It's another New Years gift, it will vanish on the 2nd I think, possibly sooner? I got so many notices today I'm totes confuzzled.

p&p1

And last but not least, a blood covered Cinderella dress from Little Heaven! The blood looks so awesome, all soaked in and old mmmm! Okies, time to flush my head down the toilet have a shower. Ash out.

Group gifts from Canimal and MichaMi

canimalgroup

Hi. Sleepy Ach here. I woke up at 5AM for no good reason, so I decided to write about two awesome group gifts. The first is Canimal's brand new subscribe-o-matic gift, a cute little dress called the Naughty Nautical. I'm wearing it with a free top hat that I found on onrez from Curio Obscura. I'm a huge fan of that shop, and the top hats are nicely made! They come in a box of five. The second outfit is from MichaMi's update group, her December gift. It consists of two lovely corset-outfits, the Carmela Bustier in green and red. So cute and carefully constructed!

Frost.

I've been horrible. I haven't been on Second Life for an extended period. I jump online, check notices, irritate people in IM, and then I poof! back into the real world.

The lovely Ashia and her Q told me about a delightful skin that makes me feel all frosted chic.

tasty
This is the gorgeous skin given to the group members of Rockberry!!
The lips are so delicious! Look that them! H-O-T.
I love the gorgeous details around the eyes. Stunning!

To get this skin, you'll need to shuffle up some room in your groups. Join the Rockberry group, check the notices and wear, wear, wear!!!!!!

Thank you to the lovely Ashia, yes, you may impregnate Dahlindah with your Pixel babies. ^^

Woa!

So just before Christmas, I got a cryptic IM from Sasy. Something about cats and my fave way to kill spare time in sl!! Turns out, there was a purpose for the vagueness, cos when she tp'd me, I squealed like a 16yr old school girl seeing her favorite boyband! We were in the Popfuzz basement, where I'd been a million times, but I hadn't seen *this* before!

lcs

Do you see that picture? Zoom in if you need to, then take in the awesomeness. The deal is this. There's a pad with the alphabet on it to the left. You click on your letter and it brings up the slurl of any chair that's part of the network and currently on say "A" for example. You pick the prize you want, click on the slurl in local chat, and away you go!! I'll also copy some of the card Hazel gave me:

lcs2

1. Besides the alphabet list on the side, you can also click on the blue letters directly on the board, those are the newest listings.

2. This board is moderated, we try to keep it filled with decent designers and creators who make their own things. Stores with chair farms, business in a box or resale items are not allowed on the network . We encourage chair hoppers to let us know if a shop isn't up to par.

3. You can contact Hazel Coppens or Indigo Lucerne if you'd like to get a Lucky Chair Box for your shop. Indigo Lucerne scripted the board and was/is instrumental in its being here.

4. Although you need to visit on-site, you can choose as many locations as you want as SLurls via chat.

lcs3

I've shown just a couple of things I picked up. There's some huge designers already taking part, if you're not part of the network and would like to be, contact Hazel to get your kitty box! It's dead easy to set up, apparently you just fill in the settings card and you're good to go. Chair stalkers, remember your chair etiquette too, as I'm sure the place will get packed! Ash out.

Kuri Style Yummys

Normally our darling Miu would blog the gorgeousness from Kuri Style, so I hope I do it justice!



I found these 2 beauties outside the store. I love love the knit detail, seeing as it's Winter in SL land!



These New Years dresses are 2L each, and can be found in a room off to the side, along with some gogeous kimono, eyes and other goodies.



And this gorgy tartan number, for Creams!! Go grab it! I know I'm wearing hoofies that dont match any of the dresses today (I usually try and co-ordinate colours!) But that's because these were a present from the luffley Adi for Christmas. I'll be showing what all the girls got me, mostly cos I'm totes chuffed, and they have impeccable taste!! Ash out.

Edit: I forgot the slurl, bah!!! Too much cold and flu medication. Anyhoo, there's a new freeb there now too. This will take you to the 4 dresses outside, the rest I mentioned are all inside xoxo

Gifts from Sprawl and Rebel -X-

sprawl02

I come bearing two lovely gifts on this strangely warm Christmas day! The first, above, is for boys AND girls from the newly-rechristened Sprawl. There's a box for each gender in the upstairs part of the store beneath the cute /artilleri/ Xmas tree. The scarf, it is huge, and it covers the face like a fremen's robe.

The second is below, the adorable group gift outfit from Rebel -X-. It's purple so that you can wear it beyond Christmas day, and it's got subtle reindeer cuteness peeking from the front of the jumper. Also nearly free are the dollarbie skins that I'm wearing for boy and girl ach -- both from the treat tray that still remains in the skin room of MiaSnow's shop in Hwang.

Only a week until 2009! What a year it's been...

Guest Post: Silver Belle by Jhuzen Ketsugo

Almost everyone knows that Neferia Abel of ~~Ivalde~~ has been gifting us all something fabulous each and every day of December with her amazing Advent Gifts. Today marks gift number 25, and this is the one you absolutely cannot miss out on. Not only is it an absolutely darling ballerina inspired party dress called Angelica Ballerina the box comes complete with a special set of jewelry cooked up by ~*Fresh Baked Goods*~. Just wear your ~~Ivalde~~ (Ivalde,Embla&Ask Design Group) Tag and touch the box numbered 25 under the tree in the main entrance, and you will be delivered a folder including all the goodies your little heart could ever desire on Christmas. There is a group invite sign at the main store, in case you can't find it in search.

FreeStyle_01

The dress is a frothy silver confection, with a sculpted ruffle skirt, a sculpted bodice with ruffle, and a matching pair of ruffled thigh high stockings. The ~*FBG*~ Angel Food Cake jewelry set includes the Tiara, Choker, Tennis Bracelets, and Matching Ring. Really a lovely set that is apparently only available with the Angelica Ballerina gown. Also included in the Advent Gift is a Guitar made by Neferia's husband Brumm Bricklin, so something for the guys and gals alike!

FreeStyle_02

If you haven't been to PXL Creations yet to get the lovely Profile Picks Gift yet, make sure you head over to get it while it lasts. This amazingly stunning skin is Hart Larsson's gift to you this holiday season. Just put PXL in your profile picks, wait a short while (may take up to 24-48 hours) and then touch the sign in-store to get this Frozen Skin. The fluttery lashes I am wearing are another 'hurry up and grab em' gift from [the oBscene] at the Crush Row location. The Silver Ice lashes can be found in a stocking at the Crush Row location of [the oBscene]. Check the awning outside of the shop, but hurry, this stocking and over a dozen others are out in every store in the shopping district, but may be gone very soon. Just as a reminder, the hair I am wearing here is ETD's Juliana, and it is currently available for just $30L or less, as is the rest of Elika's amazing hair, shoes, and other offerings. The sale ends tommorrow, so make sure you get to ETD while you still can.

It's 12:30am here...officially Xmas YAY!

Why am I still up? I fell asleep next to my little girl at 8pm when I put her to bed, and now I'm wide awake. So I thought I might as well make myself useful and write a blog post, since all pressies are wrapped.

I found a really cute little store a couple of days ago, called Cube Sugar (not to be confused with Sugar Cube). There's some lovely little free gifts at the door. Sweet little PJs like you wore as a kid, some cookies shaped like Xmas trees, a gift box with 2 poses and a bedtime santa story book with laying down pose.
