Exclusives and Hunt Item Gallery

Today is the last day to swing on by, get great deals, and find those eggs!

I really enjoyed covering this event, as I was able to do so many different looks wit what was offered. The setting itself was really beautiful.

I am not one to generally enjoy Easter. There are only two commercialized holidays I really love, and lets just say, easter is not even close to being on the radar. I did enjoy Ostara's Alter though, as it appealed to my darker side more. It is not specifically dark themed, it just had a lot of items outside the normal concept of  "easter".

So make sure you visit, and if you are really lucky, and see this post late, still come by, most events don't knock back booths right at midnight, so things still might be out at the event site.

I'm also wearing the Sweet's L$1 Mesh Body. It fits most Maitreya clothing, you just have to fiddle with your shape a bit. Also, due to BOM, you will need additional alpha layers for some parts of the body, to make certain clothing work. I do like the body though, it is a great asset for the price. Wouldn't call it perfect, but it is nicely functional.

I decided to play with colour a little bit today, and had some fun with purples and reds. Not normally a combination I play with, but it seemed to work out.

While hunting for some new appliers to try out this Genus Project Free Mesh Head, I stumbled on Velour, a new to me store. They make fun ads, at least I think.

I really enjoy the store NeverWish, and was happy to see that they are still around and creating. I don't normally like a bunch of flowers everywhere, but these roses on the earrings are super small and not overpowering. The earrings are an exclusive item at Ostara's Alter, and come in a bunch of colours. You can even find a matching nose ring in the hunt!

Ostara's Alter has all sorts of nifty prizes in the event hunt right now. The hunt isn't hard, the eggs are rather large. This polish is from Koffin Nails, and is only L$5. You get 6 options to choose from on the applier hud.

Genus Project - Free Bento/BOM Female Mesh Head

Genus has just updated their store with their Skin Fair heads, and as a #Stayhome initiative, they have also created a Free Head of their Strong Line.

It is Bento/BOM enabled, and totally new!

You can try to fight the hoard that are grabbing Skin Fair Heads, or you can join the Inworld Group, which is Free to Join, and grab the head out of the notices.

They have also reduced their heads by 40% until an undisclosed time. You can read their official note on that in the group, or on the flickr ad above, just click it to port to the flickr account.

Good enough to Eat

30L Saturday has been a staple of my weekly shopping experience for a long time. I enjoy the fantasy, along with the other things I wear, and there was always some of that mixed in the weekly list.

Well, they are having their 10th Anniversary, and for a wee bit they have all the list's designers in one spot.

There are gifts abound, just got to wear the group tag(Free to Join). There are L$30 items in every booth, as well as 50% off items. Some designers also have Gachas.

Nails can be hard to see in torso shots, so that above is the gift nails I am wearing. They are Bento enabled.

The event ends tomorrow, Feb. 27th, so you might want to rush on down and get yourself some goodies and a few new and cheap treats.

Mish Mash Mesh my Face

I saw this mesh head from Boataom, and had to blog it for you guys. It comes with a cosmetics hud, with 3 options, which change your eyebrows, blush and lips. It doesn't change them separately, it is all baked on one texture for the changes. I am wearing the 3rd option, as there was built in eyelashes, and it saved me from having to fit a pair.

You will have to wear mesh eyes with this head, and adjust them a little bit. I am wearing the current group gift from Maylfy.

I didn't like the shape that came in the package with the skin and mesh head, so I chose one from my collection of SL Marketplace finds. It's better suited to standardized shaping for mesh clothing, as well as your slink hands(if you have them).

***Note - The building at Boataom is set for sale for L$200. Be very careful as you are moving around and clicking. I set the landmark to the location of the gift, so follow you directional beam, of you have them on. Double check what you are purchasing, to be sure you are not buying a copy of the building.***

Touch of Colour

PixyStix is in this round of Bewbapalooza, offering up a cute little summer bodysuit in multiple colours. They are only L$69 each, and they have patterned short bottoms. If you join the Bewbapalooza group while at the event, you can get a pink and purple version of this body suit for FREE! As with all PixyStix products, they have appliers for all sorts of things, so it is likely that this will work for whatever mesh body part you own. Get the gift, try it out, use it as a demo of sorts, then pick your fav colour to buy!

Pulcino is at the Okinawa Summer Festival this year. They have a cute set of eyes for offer, which are only L$1. There is a green and blue pair, both with system and mesh, so you can wear one of eye each if you like that sort of thing. After you visit their stall, why not head to their mainstore, that is where my nail applier came from. They have a few lucky boards, as well as some group gifts out. The group is free to join.

Fi*Fridays is having a little event, called Soul De Soleil. So not only can you come visit for the regular round, which all items are priced at L$55, but you can visit outside, and find even more offers and deals. There are even some gifts littered about.
