Ok, first up, I finally got a chance to swing down to the Albero Winter Sweethearts Festival, where I picked up the blue top in the first pic above from The Sea Hole and the black top in the first pic below from Vena Cava. Both of them are adorable and totally affordable. While you're there, slap the Subscribe-o-Matic for Vena Cava - there's a free pose auto gift. Heaps more down at Albero - I need to go back as soon as I have some more lindens XD
I also got a chance to swing through part of the Shoes & Accessories Hunt this weekend. So much great stuff! :O You have no idea how hard I'm kicking myself for forgetting to return my application XD Oh well! There's some truly fabulous shops involved and the gifts are really generous. In the top pic, I got the Sunglasses from Kumaki, the bag from Indyra and the boots from R2. And in the bottom pic, I got the shoes from Nardcotix, sunglasses from Hoorenbeek and another pair of shoes from Kalnins that I didnt even realize are color/texture change, till I'd already uploaded these pics. I should also note that a huge portion of the gifts in this hunt are unisex and most stores are offering gifts for both guys & girls. Drag your friends along - it's a good one!
Oh, and speaking of things you should not be missing out on, the Aoharu sale... Do you really need to be told why you need to go? Honestly - 50% off everything, all of it great quality and worth far more! I grabbed the bedazzled prim-footed shoes in the top pic, along with the little fun fur jacket and the denim jacket in pic below. Go. Go now.

All Poses - fri.day - $45L each
If all that doesn't bust a hole in your wallet, how's about some new releases from Fri.day? Ugh - who can resist their hair?? Seriously - some of the best quality on the grid today. I've got 3 different styles in the pics above. And to top it off, all of the poses in the pics today are from Fri.day. They released 2 new fatpacks of poses that a pose junkie like myself cannot resist. Like everything else they do, the poses are classic, clean and just what you need.
Last but most certainly not least, I cannot tell you how floored I am by what's happening over at the Red Cross Skybox on Scribble. In just 5 days time, the skybox has doubled in size, as more and more designer donations crowd up and down the walls. There's new stuff being added daily! Check back regularly, cause you would not believe the diversity and quality of the items on offer. Every penny of which is going straight to the Red Cross. And, last I heard, the grand total raised so far is just about $2 million Linden dollars! That's roughly $8000 US. Could you just cry? Don't you just want to see that total rise?
Please run your pretty butt on over there right now and see all the new things you need to go pick up, like the Maitreya hair that's just $50L, the Leezu dress (only available at her mainstore) that will be priced at just $100L for a limited time, the Fri.day striped top, the Mocha skirt and the Trolleywood angel wing jewelry set that's just too adorable for words. Or maybe you need to go grab some new and exclusive skins from both Rockberry and Cupcakes, just $250L each! It's everything you could ever want, all for cheap prices and all for an amazing cause! Go be generous! Let's see if we can top $10,000 US before the weekend! ;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
As the heat of Summer blazes on, it's time to turn up the volume on color. And the latest Group Gift from Baiastice is just in time.
Outift - Baiastice_Summertime Green - FREE (Group Gift)
Skin - [ROCKBERRY] Uma DDOS Hunt gift tan TINT - FREE (DDOS Hunt)
This set comes with the matching shoes, as well as a pair of funky sunglasses & a non-legging skirt option. The skin is another tone from the Rockberry Uma Gift that I showed you yesterday. I swear, the Uma Skins are my personal favorite. It was such a major treat to get more of them. Far and away the best skin I've ever found for my shape. Lovelovelove them!
Okay, so, I'm not going to try to act like I'm the biggest Michael Jackson fan in world, but when I was a kid... Dude was a giant.
I can't even tell you how many hours my friends and I spent sitting out on the stoop, with my little cassette player, listening to Thriller over and over and over and over... We knew every word by heart. And every time he performed or released a new video, we ran out the next day and practiced every move. I know this is true, not just for the kids on my block, but for kids all around the world, who grew up listening to his music.
I won't attempt to comment on the controversies of his later years. I just wanna celebrate the life of that fresh faced kid on TV with the best dance moves, perfect pop tunes, loads of soul, mountains of talent and a love of sequins. So much of what he created in his youth - from the soaring Motown anthems, to the booty shakin' Disco jives, to the 80s-defining Pop - stands the test of time, and frankly beats the crap out of the flaming shite on the radio today. His contributions to American music are immortal.
Deep thanks to all of the designers who have been passing out Michael Jackson-inspired gifts today. Personal favorite is this set of poses from Sugar Mill. You can find them in a giftie box set out by the entrance - totally FREE.
Poses - Sugar Mill - RIP Michael Jackson... - FREE

Hair - booN NMR32 hair black small

Shoes - Armidi Gisaci - Vidalia Pump - Metallic Silver
Ok, now I have to share something else with you. You see, where I come from, when a celebrity who has brought us joy passes away, we don't really mourn them. We celebrate them. And celebrate my city did, last night in front of the world famous Apollo Theater in Harlem. Check out this spontaneous gathering. And then check out the original. Double dog dare you not to sing along & do a little chair dancing. I already know you know all the words. ;D
To celebrate the opening of a shop on the Polly Jean sim, Myth has set out this cute dress & it's totally FREE.
Dress - MYTH - Polly Jean Gift - Blue Dots Dress - FREE
That dress looks even better when paired with the new Group Gift set of Uma Skins from Rockberry. They are stunning - join the group to get them!
