One with the tea

Hello lovelies! Strangest thing but this post isn't Winter or Holiday related! I know - it's madness! I'm sure this is a fluke don't worry ^_^

I miiiight have mentioned this but I <3 The Arcade. Flowey is one of the delightful new discoveries I made during the December go around and gosh these poses are cute! For some unknown reason I immediately thought of the new Wicked Nights Nerdy Needs group gift. Granted this tank is gorgeous and looks so comfy but I don't know many people that practice yoga in leather pants.... >.>

If you aren't yet aware, Little Bones has upped their generosity even higher than before and group members now get mello yellow, antivenom, and mousse along with ink pot shades for new hairs. Crazy! A notice was sent around that the group would be changing to a 250L join fee soon so be sure to join ASAP! Finally Filthy has very kindly set out another skin gift, again in the three tones so yays! That's all my goodies for now! ^_^

Hello lovelies! I have an assortment of goodies for you that'll send you far and wide, from sim to sim! Yay adventures! ^_^

The Singer Icon Fair is open and full of gifties! Xxanaa showed you some of the free/cheap things to be had here and there are even more than I'm also showing today so drag your butts over and revel in the affordable goodness! I mentioned last time that The Thrift Shop had opened and the hair I have on above is one of a few options Alice Project is offering in gacha form! These pants are being offered completely free by Cheeky as a gift for the Dirty Turkey Hunt 4.0 and if you haven't made that hunt yet get to it! It's really really really worth it. I've discovered several new stores along the way and so many gifts! So go! If you've got a couple minutes after all that, head over to ViVi and look for your letter on the lucky chair to win this cutes lil top! Phew! Now for some relaxing FLF shopping..... ;)

The Love of a ballerina and a Cactus...

is clearly a precious thing! ^_^ So I was at The Thrift Shop, feeding my terrible gacha addiction, when I came across these super cute poses from Vanity Poses! I'd had this ballerina outfit kicking around in my head for awhile and this pretty much sealed it for me.

A warning about this tutu dress - the alpha didn't fit my shape at all so you may need to do some shape adjusting to make sure you're all covered. Time to dance off into the sunset with my darling Cap'n the Cactus!

Home Cookin'

So in real life I may be known to have started a fire or three in my cooking adventures [sadly not the fancy flambé kind] but one of the wonderful things about secondlife is that even I can't mess up cooking on it! ^_^ I first discovered Follow Us! on the marketplace within a couple weeks of joining SL. I was taken aback by how cute everything was and how I could afford it without tears! Joining their completely free group hasn't disappointed me; they have new gifts every month and season and the quality is still fantastic.

This cutes cooker has both the coffee pose I'm showing above and another that has you cooking and is the group gift for November. It does come with a coffee mug but I substituted this super cute VIP gift from Sway in it's place. I naturally wanted to get all dressed up in casual cooking-wear so I swooped up the Crystalline group gift by Little Bones, lil grey top by Sn@tch, aaaand flipflops from HopScotch. It was finally time to do one of my favorite freebie things: type random words in marketplace! The marketplace is a treasure trove of items you don't even know you need until you type in elephant and realise there's always been something missing in your life. Typing in apron found me this super cute lil chef set by Plausible Body which comes with multiple color/visibilty options and is just really cute. Here's to hoping your cooking adventures on and off sl go better than mine! ^_^

Happy Halloween!

Hello all you spooky lovelies! This is a very quick one to show off the generous gifts set out by Cubic Cherry Kre-ations and the free-today-only hair at Alice Project. Plus this cute lil lamp post for some last minute Halloween decor from Kei-Spot. The dress I'm wearing comes in 8 colors; 3 of which are bloody versions and there are other horn/moufie options in the gift boxes too! Xxanaa showed off one of the previous Alice Project hair gifts here and if you missed it or any of the other days you can still grab them at a discounted 50L. The lamp post is actually fully animated poses and some are quite silly in a wonderful way. Hope you enjoy and have a safe, happy Halloween!

HALLOWEEN!!!! You may not have noticed, but some of us are getting a teensy bit excited for Halloween and - thankfully - creators are just as much in the spooky spirit. PopTart is holding a Spooky Hunt until October 25th so you have a lil under a week to find the 8 bats! A warning, there were a bunch of us in store who couldn't find #6 so it may have been eaten.

I'm also wearing one of the pay-what-you-want Halloween items from Wicked Nights Nerdy Needs. You need to have the group tag active but it is free to join. That's all for now; I'm off to find out what the number of the day is.... ^_^

Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

I think so Witchy, but aren't all murderous flesh-eaters tragically misunderstood? No Barbie! I meant that the Boo Bunny Hunt 2 has officially started! ^_^ Hunting alone is no fun so I quickly dropped by Collabor88 to ask Witchy here to come with me. Clearly she's the Brain of the two of us.

Thank goodness she did come along because otherwise I may not have figured out how to get to the evil forest full of sponsor gifts at the end. This creepycute skeledress from ViVi is my favorite of the lot and it even comes with Lola and Phatazz appliers!

Witchy talked this giant bunny we met at UI into joining our plot and told me the only real way to ride a giant bunny was to do it blindfolded. Seil Xpression supplied a festive one and we're set. She is the brains here after all. Just between us, giant bunnies are the secret to global domination. Don't tell too many people.

Too many Moufies, not enough moufs!

Hello again all!

In a rare break from zombie-slaying I managed to dash over to the Body Modification Expo currently being put on by Depraved Nation! It just opened on Thursday and will be around til November 3rd so there's plenty of time to get cleaned up and go crazy! Some creators were also kind enough to put out free gifts as shown below and I luckily found 3 or 4 new stores that I'm now crazy about.

On a much sadder note, Atypical is closing it's doors at the end of October for some serious maintenance. They've become my favorite place to go to for fun extras so while there is no ETA for a return as of yet I know I'll be watching closely! Some items will be moved to the marketplace while the brand is reinvented but I strongly advise you to hurry to the store before the end of the month for anything you might like. In their usual generous fashion they've set out 3 cute Halloween group gifts you can pick up in store and through group notices.

 

                               

Welp it's back to the ole zombie bait-n-slay for me! I hope all the Canadians out there have a great Thanksgiving weekend! ^_^

Barbie the Zombie Slayer!

A young woman walks down the darkened streets, seemingly unconcerned about the news stories full of shambling hordes. What's that behind her? Is she bound to be dinner?

No! For she is Barbie the Zombie Slayer! The chosen one to fight back against the seas of undead! Or at least it's a lot of fun to pretend! :) When I received the notice from ::WetCat:: about their October group gift I knew my calling had come at last. Beware Zombies! ^_^

Bring me Rainbows

Who doesn't love rainbows? They always have had a magical, mystical meaning for so many. There is also that vibrant splash of colour just after a quick summer storm, or a beam shooting through your sprinkler, as kids jump in the spray.

I found some extra things, so I tacked them on too, since they were sort of rainbowy.

Should I pay fees to join groups? Yes!

Sometimes you see a wonderful group gift but the group has a fee to join and you have no clue if you should pay for it or not...

All depends how do you really love that store.

There are three paid groups I joined and never leaved , for totally different reasons, the first one, Auxiliary, because the store is really awesome, they send new gifts quite often and the old gifts are all there to grab.

The ID. group, because is my favorite eyes store, and she also send gifts of her new releases quite often.

The other is Elikatira ... because I really wanted to know when she would be back, even with the lack of notices... because.. is Elika! And those who remained all this time on the group are now rewarded, the group is closed, but soon Elikatira will reopen and she sent a teaser hair  for vip group members, and it is cute!

And I know i already blogged here, but is cool to remind you all, Filthy Group still free to join and you can get the previous gifts  too!

OK, Let's See What We Can Do!

So, as you likely know by now, "mesh" has arrived in SL. What does this mean for you? It means right now there are lots of free mesh gifts out. :P No, but for real if you have no idea what mesh is I would check HERE for more information. The person who wrote that post also happens to be the owner of SLink, where I got these lovely pants for free! Three colors and several sizes are included but you might still have to change your shape to fit into them, like I had to. Also, you need to be using the latest version of the official viewer or the latest version of the Kirsten's viewer to even see the mesh items properly. This sucks because the only viewer I can use shadows on is Firestorm, which doesn't have mesh ready yet, so you'll have to enjoy my "awesome" made-in-photoshop-instead-of-inworld shadows. xD

The hat I am holding is one of the subscriber gift hats from Croire. The hats are meant to be worn on your head (le duh) and you can see them worn that way HERE. I tinted the ribbon black to match my pants and I attached it to my hand instead of head because...well...there was some nipple action happening since this shirt from M*Motion is sheer. Some people, I am sure, do not want to open the feeds and see my booblies all over. Anyway, awesome pants in three colors that you need a special viewer to see, awesome hat in three colors that you can see on ANY viewer, and a cheap skin and shirt to support boobies and such!
Worn:
Pants: SLink, free
Hat: Croire, subscriber gift
Shirt: M*Motion, free
Skin: Flithy, Platinum Hunt 10L item
Hair: Lamb
Eyes: Kmadd, part of the 1L Your Inner Bunny Hunt gift

Wait, Look Where?

I was trying to get my av's eyes to look straight ahead for this pose but then I realized that this side look was kind of fun because it made the picture seem like my av is going "Uh, wait, my hands this way right?  Wait look where?  And then what?  huh?" or something. xD The shiny eyes, sparkly clothing and glamorous jewelry make for a fun photo shoot!  If you want to step it up a notch you can wear the skirt part of the Khush outfit to make it a dress.  What can I say, I have a thing for bodysuits!

Worn:
Clothing: Khush, (it's actually a dress) 10L in the Platinum Hunt
Jewelry: Glow Studio, 10L in the Platinum Hunt
Hair: Dura, 1L in the Your Inner Bunny Hunt
