Fascination

Just popping into the blog in between the 1647384884 other things I am doing, (eating prawn crackers and drinking wine, whilst making a hat in SL, whilst watching tv and plurking simultaneously. I'm a master multitasker (which explains why everything I do isn't that great, haha)

Fascino have given a gorge new hair out to the update group, perfectly coiffeured and looks fab with this exotic group gift skin from YourSkin & YourShape (you do have to adjust the hair quite a bit so that the scalp hair on the skin doesn't show though)

5AM

Mhm, it's 5am, and I'm awake.......WTF? Late nights talking to my friends in the States are totally buggering up my time clock. Wouldn't change it for a second, although I would like to sleep longer :P

First up is an outfit that isn't free, but all the proceeds go to RFL. This super cute offering from Lemania is my kinda gorgeous. Look stunning for a good cause, can't get better than that!! Have you noticed my rather fetching monocle? For that we have Azia Lunasea to thank. She let me know that it was sitting in Tekeli-Li's mainstore, waiting to jump in my inv for a linden! Yup a linden. Everything about the monocle is customisable, you pick your metal, gems, lens colour and glow. It's a limited edition type dealio, once it's gone, it's gone forever so grab yours now.

Seeing as the weather is getting warmer for you guys, I thought it was time to show off some swimwear! You'll find these beauties in the lucky chair at Swim. Shown here with the super extravagant hair from the Clawtooth By Clawtooth group, as blogged by the yummy Eden.

You can get this set for a linden at Swim, it's the April dollarbie. There's also a midnight mania board, so it's well worth joining the group to keep up with the happenings! Many thanks to Ianni Lane for letting me know! And with that I shall drag myself back to bed to grab an hours sleep before mini Ash wakes up! Ash Out.

Gloomy

Hey there. After all that 'disabled log-in' fiasco i've finally been able to return to SL. Today, I logged in to receive a notecard from Putrid Gloom, the lovely creator of Show Me On The Doll (*SMOTD*) asking me to blog her new dollarbie. And here it is!

This cute eastery Stepford Wife inspired hair is available from tomorrow in all of her stores for 1L and features daffodils and coloured eggs perched on top. :3

In these photos i'm sporting the stunning dress from *katat0nik which is currently available at the opening of the new store at the GossipGirl sim location. You better hurry up and get it because it won't be there long!

Also, I think while you're at Putrid's store you should most definitely check out her stunning carnival-esque dresses. She was nice enough to send me 2 and also her new "Tippytoes Ponyboot" which are not yet on sale. Join her subscribo because she sends out freebies regularly ;)

Channel Island Asylum

This is just one of the dresses on sale now at *SMOTD* but it's definitely worth buying! Keep your eyes peeled for the boots coming on sale because they're so hot!

Getting Dressed for a Party!

Oooh, I'm so excited that I had to blog...during class. Yes, I'm totally justifying not paying attention in my head (and in a blog post, apparently), but...DRESSES! Dresses are worth it! Especially FREE dresses! Le squee!

I'm one of those girly-girls who randomly pops on my fanciest Nicky Ree gown to go shopping for grunge clothes. Completely ridiculous, I know...but who doesn't like watching their avatar floating gracefully across sims with skirts trailing and hair beautifully piled up in an elegant updo?...

....and that's why I've been an enthusiastic customer of Kouse's Sanctum for as long as I can remember. Kouse Singh creates the most gorgeous gowns in a variety of styles with opulent, rich textures. And, she's incredibly generous to her update group members. For April, she's giving members the Tempest gown in "Iridescence," complete with a dainty crown, for all of 1 lindo! Just wear your group tag and visit either of her stores in Avilon or Seabreeze to get it!


It's fairy princess-tastic and the texture of the skirt is just breathtaking. But...that's not all! If you're a fan of the lucky chair and you happen to catch your letter, you can score this gorgeous dress too!



To pair with the rich blue of the gown, I went to Nomine to get this beautiful Sylvan "Morticia" skin in Ultralight for just $100L!! There's a sale on all the Sylvan skins - just $100L each! But you must be quick! It's only till Saturday! While it's not free, the sale is so good that I had to mention it.

I also have to rave about Philotic Energy's newest release. Above, I'm wearing "Stephanie" in rich chocolate, a very elegant updo with a perfect hairline (I know that sounds weird, but you have to try it to see what I mean!) and attractively loose pieces around the face and down the back. Again, not free, but if you need a hair fix like I seem to...non-stop...[twitch twitch!] check it out and her other new releases (ESPECIALLY "Fern!").



All dressed up...but nowhere to go? You can join Katat0nik for the grand opening of her GossipGirl location at 6 pm SLT TONIGHT (Thursday) for a block party-style celebration, complete with DJ Moogani GossipGirl's bodyrocking beats and....

...a gift for all party attendees! YAY! If you go to the party tonight, you can pick up this "Sakura Storm" dress in purple as a thank you for coming out. Hope to see you there! (I'll be there defiantly wearing my unicorn horn and hooves in opposition to the Anticorns!)

The great thing about this top as it comes in all layers so you can wear it with anything :D! The under-bust waistcoat and grey denim shorts are from other eggs also hidden in Cupcakes. I'm only showing a few items here but there are 2 stunning dresses, shirt, jacket and more to be found!

Is Shopping In Latex Ever Appropriate? Mmhmm!

When these outfits landed in my inv yesterday, I swear I was trying to think of ways to get away with going shopping in latex, cos there was no way in hell I wanted to take *any* of them off!

dd3

See this pink lushness? You cannae buy this, you can only get it in the chairs at Dare Designs. You have exactly one week of stalking before they go on sale. You get the choice of see through or not so see through, layers galore all sorts of ways to wear and play. The skin? OMG. Rosemary and Mimi of Cupcakes have once again taken generosity to a new level. There is an Easter egg hunt going on, you're looking for 20 eggs of deliciousness. You'll get loads of clothes and this scrummy makeup, in all tones from the brand new Seduction line.

And just because it's the hottest latex I've seen in awhile, here's a preview of some of the other colours you can buy from Dare Designs. The blood is my favie, just delicious, go buy it!! Now if you'll excuse me, I need some alone time with my screenshots :P Ash Out.

Corny Cupcakes

3rd part to my bloggy Series(Check Part1 and Part2 here***please keep in mind those are not Freebie blogs, tho they do have some free items, and in no way represent Free*Style though the actions carried out of those blogs***)

Like all critters in the world, there are many different species to one family line. Cats for instance. You got big ones, small ones, beautiful ones and fugly ones. There are alot of cats!

What does this have to do with anything you say?

Well the war is still on! There may be peace talks going on, but something might still be brewing, and we are recruiting all we can.

Here today I show you Mercornulus Brighticus.


These Mythical Unicorns evolved to live in the sea. They still have horns and glitter, just lack the hooves. Some still have kept wings, tho they are merely for show now, to attract mates.


They are still a rather show lot, and will strike a pose if asked nicely

As with their land brethren, they keep themselves as colourful as possible.
Till next time, with Unicorn Chronologist, Helena Stringer.

CUPCAKES!

OMG there have been so many. But these are super cute ones, and tho I'm so not into this stuff, there tends to be pastels associated with cupcakes(and pink . . . gag me now!), I do enjoy a good bunny anything.
SHHHHHH no telling people I like bunnies! i have an image to keep you know. At least my hair is spikey enough to gouge out eyes!
I was still in rainbow mode, post unicorniness, so I wore a rainbow skin I recently found. To tanned, but I can deal with that for a day.

I got this shirt and matching cupcake from a wishing well at Elate!, just throw in a linden and you get a prize.
You get the Bunny and Panda by nomnoming a big ass cuppy at Sanu. I managed to make it to one of her mini parties, and scored a few of these babies when it was set to 5 minute waits. You can't just climb back on, cause well you'd get everything so fast! you got to work for it a bit. They are trans, so you can trade, or give away you extras. Last I heard, there were 72 prizes in there.

Hello again!
Mozilla seems to hate me and freezes every time I try open anything so i've had to go and download safari and all sorts! *Sigh*

Okay, so i'm sure you've all started the Bunny Hop Hunt by now and i think these shoes have been blogged already but theyre soo yummy! I wanted to show the bag that also comes in the Sentou Yousei bunny hop gift, and how perfectly it goes with the gorgeous old Rising Phoenix Designs freebie dress; Unfortunately not available anymore. :(

Oh but this isn't all my precious freebie lovers! EVERYTHING in this post is free. Yep! That means outfit, skin, hair.. the works! The skin is from 1 of 4 lucky chairs (1 is a males only chair) in Little Britain Designs. There is also a weekly group gift for members, and 2 freebies available on the wall above the chairs.

Snapshot_016

Hair is a freebie from Glitter Hair. Eyes are are a freebie from Poetic Eyes i'm sure you all have already because they're lush! And the nose ring is a Twisted Hunt prize from Cyanide. Also, the poses are dollarbies from Essential Soul Studios. Phew! That's alot of yummy free stuff for you to rush out and get!

Fairyness! :3

Hiya! I think i should introduce myself first. I'm GG and i'm new here on Free*Style so this is my first post! Hope it goes well haha :)

This is actually my second post today, but for some reason the first post is "scheduled" so i don't know what's going on there Blogspot! >:(

Now, Ash has already blogged the pink fairy costume from *Deviance* but.. there is an aqua set for 1L on the desk, inc. wings, shose and 2 different top styles!

Laaaaaaaazy

Oh god I hate it when I wake up, and it's raining, been raining all night. Dark skies at 7am are just wrong. Specially on a Weds, specially when mini Ash decided at 2.30am that there was no way on earth she could sleep in her own bed. Specially when she takes up my whole damn bed.



Van Stantz, he makes me happy, in fact he makes me squee. These amazing boots are yours for free, for a limited time at EvA. As always, they are scripted sculpts of yum, and we are spoilt rotten. Be sure to fangirl Van and Evangeline if you see them!



Next we have a gorgeous opening dollarbie from Amaranthus, a new project from Elbereth Nightfire of Star Kindler fame. This is a bit of a departure from the jewelery we are used to from this talented designer, featuring Victorian gothic pieces that are just stunning. The perfect foil for these gorgy silks from Silk & Satyr, also an opening gift. Do hit up the subscribo, and do spend lots of lindens in this yummy store, it's my first choice for silks.......srsly.

lo1

And here is where Ash got thoroughly fed up today!!! Ash and Q were looking decidedly similar, so here we have the new (for the moment) Ash! I'm prob the only one that can tell the difference, but that kinda counts..right?!

lo2

lo3

I haven't posted about the cutest store on the grid for awhile. Lo*momo long ago claimed that title in my books, and there has been no contender since!! Shown here are a mixture of group gifts (avail in store with tag activated) dollarbies and the Bunny Hop gift. Ohh and there's 2 lucky boards there now, both dresses eluded me, but they are stunning. And now I suppose I shall drag myself off to do something semi useful, Ash out.
