This week your $50L can do a hell of a lot more than you ever imagined.
Jacket - {SMS} Another Vintage Jacket Red for Red Cross - $50L
Skin - :: DUTCH TOUCH ::MaUVe:: Cream - Vamp - $500L
Pose - esme for (pda) Break In Case Of Anything - $100L (Fatpack)
Last night Barb posted a plurk asking people if they wanted to participate in a Red Cross fundraising event in SL. 24 hours and dozens of contributors later, more than $200,000L has been raised. To up the stakes even more, many of today's $50L Friday designers have pledged the proceeds from at least one of their items. In addition, there is an entire skybox filled with all kinds of exclusive goodies. And every single last little Linden dollar is going directly to the Red Cross! You have a chance to make your money do something really wonderful, so SHOP YOUR BALLS OFF!
Top - ~*RunoRuno*~ Wrap Tank - $50L
Hair - [Aden] Autumn (Black) - $50L
Jewelry - *Ticky Tacky* Save a Prayer Jewelry Set - Red - $260L
Pose - esme for (pda) All My Heroes Are Weirdos - $100L (Fatpack)
Let's get to the fashion! I'm totally digging the jacket in the top picture, from So Many Styles. It's really wonderfully crafted. You can purchase this right at the shop. The RunoRuno top in the 2nd picture can be found at the Red Cross skybox. Runo's fluid and organic shapes never cease to impress. It's a steal for $50L. For a bit more than that you can grab the special edition jewelry set I made for this event, from my shop *Ticky Tacky*. It's packed with options and it's pretty badass, so don't miss it! The hair is from the sale at the new Aden satellite shop at Starlust. All the hair is $50L, and this style features a tight little bun with a texture changing headscarf.
Top - *Fishy Strawberry* Wings Tee - Red - $50L
Skin - :: DUTCH TOUCH ::MaUVe:: Cream - Xtrema - $500L
Hair - Clawtooth: Let's Get Married (Valentine) - $50L
Pose - [LAP] - Slex-Cute Charlotte - $50L (Fatpack)
Clawtooth by Clawtooth has been rocking my world a little too much lately and this flaming red flip 'do leaves me a little breathless. The fact that this is CBC's Red Cross item only makes me love it more. Find it at the shop. Fishy Strawberry's Red Cross item also kicks some major ass. This perfect red, 3/4-sleeve top has adorable angel wing decals on the back. This is available at the Red Cross skybox. The skins used in this post are from the ongoing sale at Dutch Touch. I've rhapsodized about these before. No clue when the sale might end, so get them while you can. The poses in this post come from Long Awkward Pose and Penny Dreadful Arcade. The PDA set can be found up in the Red Cross skybox, along with loads of other wonderful things you need to go buy right now! :D
Today's the day, kittens... It's the $50L Friday to end all $50L Fridays - 45+ shops, all with at least 1 fabulous item for ridiculously cheap!
Jacket - *Fishy Strawberry* Tweed Jacket Beige - $50L
Skirt - Kyoot - Corduroy Mini - Nutty - $50L
Shoes - .:Periquita Q-Steps Shoe
Pose - (pda) Black Wave / Bad Vibrations - $50L (Fatpack)
There's so much great stuff available today, you'd be crazy to do anything but shop your little pixels off. First up, this killer little jacket from Fishy Strawberry. It works so well with the little mini skirt from Kyoot, you'd think they planned it. That skirt even comes with blue striped leggings that are good enough to stand on their own.
Dress - -L`Abel-Cara black minidress - $50L
Hair - !lamb. Bang Bang - Ink - $50L
Shoes - .:Periquita ChickyChic Pumps
Pose - (pda) Black Light - $50L (Fatpack)
There are 2 dresses available at L'Abel, but you know I had to go for the black one. It's got a hint of glitter and has a really casual sexy drape across the body. It even comes with 2 skirt options, the A-line (shown) and a classic tight prim. The hair was the winner of the popular vote on Lamb's Plurk, and gosh do the kids know how to pick a perfect prim hair... So sleek and sexy, it's mandatory to have in your wig closet. There are 2 others availble there today, so if black isn't your color, or you really can't work a blunt cut, you've got more to choose from.
Top - [W&B] I'll Be A Ghost Shirt - $50L
Pants - (Milk Motion) My wool pants - $50L
Shoes - .:Periquita Silly Wedges
Pose - (pda) Tes yeux noir - $50L (Fatpack)
The top here is a darling little, bow-necked sleeveless from Whippet & Buck and it works great when paried with the wool pants from Milk Motion. Have you noticed my shoes yet? All of the shoes used in the pictures today are from Periquita and you can find them all at the Shoe Fair. I cannot tell you how much in love with Periquita shoes I am. For less than what others charge for just 1 pair, you get a set of Periquita's with more color change & customizable options than you'll ever know what to do with. And no one does a cute, flirty quirky shoe quite like this. You need them all.
Top - Pig - Georgia in Black - $50L
Belt - Kunstkammer Cosmic Belt - Crystal - $50L
Shoes - .:Periquita S-Steps Shoe
Pose - (pda) Odessa (City on the Black Sea) - $50L (Fatpack)
The boustier top pictured above is from Pig and it comes with an optional babydoll flair prim. The killer Kustkammer belt you'll recognize from Wrenja's post. It even comes with just the buckle part, so you can work it into outfits in various ways. All of the poses used in today's post are from Penny Dreadful Arcade. You get a total of 10 poses for just $50L. I love how expressive they are. And this deal is too hot to pass up.
Dress - (Elate!) - Celeste - $50L
Shoes - .:Periquita Stilettos
Pose - (pda) Danse Des Mouches Noires Gardes Du Roi - $50L (Fatpack)
Last, but certainly not least, is this great little mini dress from Elate. A mini from Elate is always a must-buy, but one with a 3/4 sleeve, black top, and glittery sliver mini skirt... That's just a no-brainer.
There's certainly TONS more great stuff available today. You'll be kicking your butt till next year if you miss out. Happy shopping! :D
OMG! There are so many sales going on this weekend, I'm absolutely dizzy from it all. O.o

Okay, first up, if you love $50L Fridays (and who doesn't?), you're probably going to like the latest spin-off, Weekend Fever. This is the inaugural weekend and it's basically the same concept - a rotation of some fab shops with $50L items, but this time you have all weekend to grab them. For the first week, the line-up is pretty good. Fishy Strawberry is offering the comfy sweater dress pictured above, plus an outfit for guys. And Periquita is kicking ass with a Fatpack of 3 pairs of brown shoes. I also need to mention the poses used in this pic are a Group Gift from On The Cover, which is temporarily closing it's doors, while the wonderfully awesome owner pursues some RL opportunities. We're all going to miss her work while she's away. Break a leg, Mashi! :D

Sn@tch is getting in on the sale action - everything is marked down and insanely cheap right now! And, if you're familiar with Sn@tch, you know that everything is sold as a Fatpack. So, you're getting a pile of clothes for next to nothing! :O Run! Now's your chance to stock up! And, speaking of fatpacks, guess who dropped the mack-daddy Fatpack of the day... None other than The Lady Miss Tuli! There is a mondo Fatpack of her latest skin line waiting for Group members in the magic mushroom at the store. You would not believe the pile-up of rabid fashionistas we had there today when the notice went out! XD
Right - * MichaMi: Malina in Blue - $125L
Left - ~HSC~ Midnight - $138L
Among the mass of sales going on right now, there are 2 more you need to pop in and check out. MichaMi has a few selected items in her shop marked down 50%. I snagged this great little blue mini that also converts into a killer little longsleeve top. I needed another blue mini (cause who can ever have enough, right?), so I hit the 50% off sale at Haute Style & Co. This weekend only - so hurry! Loads of great deals - happy shopping! :D
There are two great events you've got to hit before the night is over!

While you're running around snatching up all the last minute Halloween gifties tonight, be sure to swing over to the Hodgepodge Sim. That's where I found that first top from Sugarcube. A bunch of stores there have gifts as well. So much generosity from such fabulous creators! Have a Happy Halloween, kids! :D
Bet you're wondering where exactly that might be, huh? ;D
Pants - {SMS} Pik Pants Brown - $50L
Hair - PIDIDDLE - Balloon Hair - Orange - FREE (Group Gift)
Burning Life of course! :D
I am so excited for the grand opening of this year's Burning Life festival! I didn't get to do my own plot this year (sadface!), but I am helping a friend with some finishing touches. So, that gave me early access to the sims. And, let me tell you, you are in for a major treat! There are some astoundingly gorgeous builds just waiting for you to ooo and ahh and explore. But since all of the builders are furiously rushing to the deadline, I'm not allowed to give you shots of full builds just yet. Till the sims open to the public this weekend, I can only show you teeny tiny peeks & give the event the hype it so rightly deserves :D
Dress - /artilleri/ - Wilma dress *lavendel* - $50L
Hair - Clawtooth by Clawtooth: A place to call home $50L
Pose - [LAP] - GG1-Joan PR4 - $50L (Fatpack)
Meanwhile, back in fashionland, it's $50L Friday time! Did you spend as much as I did? It was kinda hard to say no to so many fabulous items. I had been eyeing those leggings in the top picture from So Many Styles for a while. How awesome they went so well with the latest wild hair-do Group Gift from Pididdle. If SL ate yours the way it did mine, rest assured you can still get it from the Subscriber service at the mainstore. The fabulous retro dress above is from none other than the queen of retro in SL - Artilleri. And that killer hair is from the diva of all things ridiculously fabulous, Clawtooth by Clawtooth. Is it wrong that I want to build my wardrobe around that hair, just so I can wear it all the time? (And, yes, the birds chirp when you click them! >.<) The pose is from Long Awkward Pose & it's from the Girls' Fatpack. There's one for guys, as well. I got them both just cause they're all too good to pass up.
Dress - *Fishy Strawberry* Cuddle Maxipull - Hot Pink - $50L
Leggings - *Fishy Strawberry* Swan Lake Leggins - Hot Pink - $50L (Fatpack)
Last but certainly not least is this mini sweater dress from Fishy Strawberry. Perfect sculpty prim work as usual. I swear I just want to snuggle up in that dress in RL, it's so comfy. And to finish the look, there's a matching fatpack of hot pink leggings, also $50L. There's so much more great stuff this week. Just like the Burning Life builds, I wish I could show you everything. But you'll just have to scope them out for yourself. Have fun! :D
Catching up a bit after largely being off SL this week.
Top - *Fishy Strawberry* Jewelled Cashmere Sweater - Blue - $1L
Pants - *COCO*_Gift(Cutout-Leggings)_Pants - FREE (Group Gift)
Skin - [ROCKBERRY] Eva Light (Glow) - FREE (Group Gift)
This first outfit features two items you may have seen, if you're a follower of the fashion feeds: the cute sweater from Fishy Strawberry and the latest Group Gift leggings from Coco. There was another set of leggings last week, and that can be found inside the shop, next to the group joiner. This set, however, is for Halloween. It comes with a matching pair, with skulls on them & you can find it out in the courtyard.
Dress - Baiastice_Hershey dress - FREE (Group Gift)
Skin - [ROCKBERRY] Eva Tan (Glow) - FREE (Group Gift)
If it's a new month, there's a new Group Gift from Baiastice! SL has a nasty habit of devouring all the gifts groups send out. So, if you missed this one, like I did, you can still find it in notices. Another generous gift comes from Rockberry, which recently hit the 6000 group member mark. To celebrate, a full set of Eva skins - in all tones, plus freckles, plus glow, plus freckle glow - is available for free at the mainstore.
Dress - ~Ivalde~Aksana black set - FREE (Lucky Chair)
Skin - *CUPCAKES - Daydream - Honey - FREE (Group Gift)
Ivalde has restocked the Lucky Chair & there are lots of pretty dresses to win. The stalker crowd has been pretty consistent, so it won't take you too long to get lucky. This skin comes from yet another staggeringly generous Group Gift. Cupcakes dropped this sample of their latest skin line, Daydream, in all seven skin tones, plus freckles, on the group this week. You can find this, as well as a brand new Elf skin tone, in group notices.
Left - ::SPLIT PEA:: In your alligator shoes - ALLEGATOR Mask - FREE (I Heart the Starlust Group Gift)
Right - SPLIT PEA - Go absolutely cuckoo - Giraffe Mask - FREE (Split Pea Group Gift)
Split Pea sent out two group gifts this week as well - two more of the adorable animal masks. So freakin' cute! The Giraffe was sent to the store subscriber group, so I'm not sure there is a way to access past notices. The Alligator, however, was sent out to the I Heart the Starlust Group and you can find it in notices. I know what I'm going as for Halloween! XD
Thanks to all of the designers for being so generous! :D
I hope you've saved your Lindens, cause this week's $50L Friday is going to kick your wallet's ass!
Jacket -(Milk Motion) My admiral vest - $50L
Jeans - K&CO - Simple Denim - Warm Blue - FREE (Lucky Chair)
Pose - [LAP] - BG2-Barbie14 PR4 - $50L (set)
One of the big jaw-droppers this week is the admiral vest from Milk Motion. So many of us bargain hunters have visited the shop in the past and been able to do little more than pet the vendor and cry inside. Tonight we got to wipe those tears away for good and score this little piece of virtual fabulosity for just $50L! Don't miss your chance to grab it, too! The jeans are another great score from Kenzie & Co. Kenzie has just restocked her Lucky Chair with a ton of new items, among them, this classic pair of skinny blue jeans. The chair is set to just 5 minutes, but there's so much stuff in it, you're going to need to call up all your girlfriends and camp out. Totally worth it!
Jacket - *Fishy Strawberry* Waist Jacket - $50L
Shoes - *Kookie* Powder Puff ' Spikeys ' - $50L
Necklace - Kunstkammer Classic Coin Necklace - Silver - $50L
Pose - [LAP] - CC-Swagger PR4 - $50L (set)
The other big name on the shopping list this week is Kookie. While we wished for shoes, a few of us shook that idea off as just a fantasy. Leave it to Kookie to make a girl's shoe fantasy come true! This studded pair comes with both strap & strapless versions. Another stunner this week, the waist jacket from Fishy Strawberry. I didn't expect to like this as much as I do. It's scripted not just for resize, but texture change as well, offering up 15 different options. So, it's totally unisex and can match a ton of different outfits, not to mention the wonderful quality of the sculpt & the richness of the textures. $50L is a small price to pay for such a worthy wardrobe investment. The necklace from Kunsthammer makes me a little sick with jealousy. I wanted to make something just like this, but the ridiculously talented designer Nuala Shippe beat me to it and did a much better job than I could ever dream of accomplishing. Damn she's good! It's a perfect classic jewelry piece - you absolutely need it. And to top off this wallet wilting weekend shopping, a fatpack of poses from Long Awkward Pose. You get 5 poses for the low low asking price, and, just like last time, there's a pack for guys & a pack for girls - all of them perfection.
