Red Marketplace

One of my favorite ways to kill boredom lately is to just browse the Marketplace.  I pick a category and just flip through pages.  Most of the time I don't really find thing I love.  It's seriously a graveyard for items that were hot in 2007 and a giant pool of stolen content.  It can get pretty frustrating.  But then every once in a while I find things I love.  It's even better when they are freebies or cheapies!  One example would be CStar,.  For some reason they have a bazillion free fatpacks on the Marketplace right now.  I had to read the descriptions over and over again to make sure I was reading right.  These skins are gorgeous!  There is something for everyone, as long as you like things a bit quirky.

Another thing I found was this lipstick from Unicorn Dreams.  The red is the exact right shade that can fit with any skin tone and it's only 30L.  Love!  I thought this tube top was pretty cool and creative with the little lungs drawn on the front.  It's from a store called Paper Heart.  The store has lots of cheap things and they are generally pretty wacky and fun.  My shape was custom made for me from a store called Entropy.  I was on Plurk talking about how I was sad that the Eaters Coma brand hair just did not fit my head.  Next thing I know I had a gift waiting for me!  This shape was made with my body type in mind and the skin brands I often wear in mind as well.  It was a lovely surprise!  So if you want a shape check out Entropy. :)

Go Purple Go Purple Go!

Some free and not free stuff today. Every once in a while I like to mix some not free stuff here just to get your shopper's blood flowing! All the not free stuff is pretty inexpensive for the ultra high quality though so it's worth it. That said, check out some freebs! Who says black socks are bad? Not I! And not Berries Inc. Though if you like white socks they have those too. And stripes? Who doesn't love stripes!? I thought the summery top from Somnia at the Chic Birthday event was a fun addition AND you get a large pack of other colors included. Also the furniture from Entropy is hot stuff! I tinted it a little purple but it's a lovely shade of red.

This eye makeup is from the Musa Makeup subscriber kiosk. There are always lots of gifts and lucky boards here for soft makeups. My skin is a not free new release from L. Fauna which is awesome and I blogged about over at Broke By Payday. The necklace is from Lolapop! and not free but I have one super similar in RL so this excited me a bunch.

The shoes are not free and are from Lassitude & Ennui. You can get a similar style for free in the Black Butler hunt but I had to choose the skulls and purple!!
