Pika piiii~

Ever have one of those nights where you get smashed, get married, then end up married to three other girls, and are suddenly a Pikachu dancing around Morrigan Denimore? Doesn't happen very often, even to me, but welcome to last night.


The evening started off innocent enough, hit up Violent Seduction to check out Iki's new skins, but ran into Iki and Aura of tacky stars, and the night began. Lolli eventually came around, and it was on.


Really though, I have just one thing to say. PHE4R.




outfit isn't for sale, have to be part of the Harem of Munster to get one :O
The shoes though, the shoes you can get.

Chipping Away at the Inventory of Doom

I finally caught a few minutes to sit down with my inventory last night & catch up on the mountains of stuff I've accumulated over the last few weeks. It was getting pretty dangerous in there :/

Anyway, I found all these boxes from the Designer Showcase Network Subscriber Group (DSN) that I still hadn't opened. And, omg so much good stuff! If you haven't signed up yet, you're just being a leotard. You get presents every night from the categories you sign up for - 9 different ones in all. Tons of great shops are involved. And everything is totally 100% FREE!

Here's just a little of what I managed to unpack.

You might have noticed the cute peep-toe shoes in those pics above. Those are from Plausible Body & the Fatpack of 9 colors is on XStreet for FREE. It even comes with a pair that are scripted to color change, so you never even have to take them off your feet to match your outfits. Super duper thanks goes out to the sweetie Isadora Vayandar for tipping me off about this fabulous find! :D

why am I up at 4:30 am?

A lot of fun stuff appeared in my inventory today, be it from ruthless shopping, or generous designer faeries leaving gifts for me to squeal over. A little bit of hair fair, a little bit of lucky chair, and a nice group gift to round out the post.



First up, Crimson shadow has a new outfit in the lucky chair. Putting it on made me want to find tall structures to crouch on top of and watch the tails of my jacket flick around in the wind, so I did. I think its one of the best lucky chair choices they've ever made, ugh I love this outfit. It totally doesn't hurt that I have a ridiculous fetish for crosses.



The hair I'm wearing is probably one of my favorite finds from Hair Fair this year. It's Exile's 'Lolita'. It retails for 250L, and is worth every penny. The hair comes with two sets of accessories, simple heart barrettes, and then the amazing 'kawaii' barrettes (shown below). The barrettes are color change, and I can't get over how cute they are. Oh, those little hearts under my eye are an accessory that comes with the hair as well. It's a great deal for everything you get.



Before I wrap this up, just a reminder, the Nomine specialty skin sale is still going on. I'm wearing the 'Vampire - Touched' skin, which is only 100L, for a limited time. I figured this would be a great outfit to dig it up for. Finally, while it's small, the *BP update group had a new group gift dropped last night, its just a set of cute ltitle twigs that rest on your lips, but they are adorable so I thought I'd mention them. Oh, and these were shot on the Sick2 sim.

I just thought I'd take a minute to give you an up to date- Today was my mother's last round of Chemo, and she came out of it like a rockstar. She's never been so lucid and about her wits after Chemo as she was today, and it gave me a really positive feeling. After today it's a waiting game. She's going to be getting a CAT scan and meeting with her doctors in a few weeks. Right now is the time to pray, and I thank you so much for every prayer and thought you utter for my family's benefit. I hope in the next few weeks I'll be able to tell you all she's cancer free, only time will tell, won't it?

Nyaaaa~<3

Edit: I took the pictures on a laptop I don't normally use, and the pink lighting didn't come off so severe, the skin is black and white and the gothic lolita dress, is black with white trim, I was surprised when I loaded the blog after getting home to see they looked neon xD

I'm a big fan of Curious Kitties, just in general. The name can be misleading, a lot of people think *neko* when they hear the name 'Curious Kitties'. Which is fair enough, they do sell ears and tails and cat skins, but they also have great clothes, hair and non-neko skins. The store is huge and can be intimidating, but they have a wall of freebies, and recently, new gifts have been added to it, you can find it near the drop point in the store, just cam around it'll be on the side wall.



This year Curious Kitties has a shop at hair fair, and I have to say, Curious kitties hair is among my favorite on the grid. Its playful and adorable, on top of that, its totally affordable. They've has recently released her newest line of hair, and its pretty unique. In the past she had scripted colorchange hair for 200L, and you got nine colors with that, now, you buy the hair for around 100L, depending on style, and then, you buy color HUDs for the colors you want. These color HUDs aren'n just for hair though, this will be adjusting color for ears, tails and accessories as well.




The color HUDs come in various forms. there are 'lite' HUDs, which come with four colors, and retail for 100L, and there is the Full hud, which has EVERY color (33 of them) for 700L. I personally adore this idea, this way you can get all the hair you want, and if you only want it in black->white, you get them super cheap, but if you'd like to get the reds too, you're only paying 100L once for the reds hud. (or 700L once for all of the colors). Obviously this isn't economical if you aren't a big fan of CK hair, but for those of use who *are* (hi, me.) its brilliant. No more buying fat packs, or packs of blacks and reds and whites, just one hair, and one, to a few HUDs.




Curious Kitties has four hairstyles available this year at Hair Fair, one of which is free! All of these hairs follow the new HUD coloring system, except for the locks of love donation hair. the LoL hair is ridiculous and I'm totally in love with it. Its a whole lot of look, but completely fun to wear at the same time. The Curious Kitties Shop is totally worth checking out, especially if you've never been before because of the Neko connection.




The new freebies in their main store are pretty varied, a couple of dresses, a pant outfit and then, one of their cat skin sets. It comes complete with tail, ears, whiskers, eyes and a shape. It seems pretty unique in terms of neko/kitty gear, most nekos are just human with ears and tails, but thsi is really kitty, without looking super Anthro. I thought the eyes were pretty cool, just how they mix in with the fur parts of the skin.






My Heart Belongs to Daddy

Back when I was a lowly noob, Retrology was the very first hunt I ever did in SL. I had been wandering around for weeks in the worst of the worst freebies. And then I found Retrology and my SLife was changed forever. I had finally discovered that there was all this great fashion to be had, that there was a place where an avatar could go to look stylish and unique. Retrology is still one of the top shopping sims in SL. Every shop is just brimming with great clothes and stylish furnishing, all at affordable prices.

To find out that they are hosting yet another hunt, this time in honor of Father's Day, you know I had to get my ass down there double-quick. The My Heart Belongs to Daddy Hunt ends today, so make sure you don't miss it! You're looking for little hearts hidden around the sim. Look inside & outside of all shops. There are tons to be found. Lots of great stuff & all of it FREE! Here's just a little taste what you'll find :)

Kiss and Swallow



you might have noticed recently, I really like House of Munster. Apparently House of Munster really likes me too! The Lovely Lolli Munster has created five new hairs for the Hair Fair this year and each one is ridiculous and fantastic, just like everything else that devious girl creates. She has short hair, long hair, and 'hawks to be claimed, and each is more fabulous than the last. The variety of looks you can get from the styles kills me, as you and really pull off a punky yet antiquated victorian look, to straight up punk rawk bitch.

Lolli's prices go like this, Solid color sets are 250L each, tipped sets are 400L, and her monster packs are 1k each. There are two monster packs available, a tipped monster pack, and a solid color monster pack.



If you aren't familiar with Lolli Munster's hair, she makes some of the most fun scripted hair on the grid. All of the hair in the shots except for the last one, are her scripted tipped hair, and depending on the hair, you have options to tip the bangs, the hair, a streak, you can make the hawk part of the hair different from the bangs, and the bangs different from the hair. Another great feature is that you can turn the mohawk on and off in some hair styles, so you can use these hairs in a huge variety of ways.



For the fair, Lolli has placed her Sprite hair as her Locks of Love donation hair, so when you buy it, half of the price of the hair goes directly to Locks of Love. This hair is so much fun, with three different areas to color, it looks great whether you're of the fae persuasion, or just really like spikey hair, and really, who doesn't like spikey hair? Its just so much fun to touch.




My favorite hair of the bunch I think is Nina though. Its long, funky, and comes with two hair pieces. A hairbow and a headband. It also has one of those awesome 'hawks that you can turn on and off. Another treat concerning this hair, is that the headband and barrette are color change as well. You can wear this hair so many ways its ridiculous, and I love it.



Between Axel, and this hair called 'Ballz 2 the Wallz' I'm pretty sure you've got your crazy hair covered. I love the risks this hair is willing to take and it totally works. Its another hair with a 'hawk that can be hidden. I wasn't too sure about this hair until I put it on, and it was love. With or without the mohawk, I love it. Its like a punk rock peacock, and how is that *not* cool?



But that's not all! Oh no, Lolli has updated the House of Munster group gifts. She's put out 'Buttons' and 'Rabid' a brand new mohawk for all you girls who fancy yourself a tank... you just like to shave your head. 'But Wrenja!' you might say. 'You showed us Buttons in your last big HoM post!' . I totally did, you are correct. BUT. Buttons has been updated, its now scripted colorchange just like the rest of Lolli's hair, AND, it now has nine colors available as opposed to the previous five.




I'm also willing to bet you've been oggling the skin I'm wearing. Well my darlings, this is also a new gift in Hotel Munster! The lovely Ikaru of one of my new favorite shops 'Violent Seduction' has dropped this for group members. She just released a new line of skins with some fantstic and vibrant makeups, and totally worth checking out. Like I've said before the entry fee to the House of Munster Group is 50L, but it is so worth it, I can hardly believe it.
