Okay, let's talk fashion, cause there's a buttload and a half in this post (and, I promise, it's not even scratching the surface of all that you'll find in the hunt)! The dress in the top picture is from Deviant Girls. The eyes are from Umedama Holic and they come with animated prim tears. The box is the latest release from Agent Orange, called the Breakup Box and it's way too clever.

The second picture has a shot of the MIU dress, the R2 shoes, the group gift handbag from Pacadi, the full ensemble from Mocha, the cropped jacket from MNK Shop & the skirt from Oyakin. You can even see one of the chocolates from Spica, one of the love letters from Atelier AM, and the glasses from NALA, that come with rosy prim cheeks.

Last, but not least, is the avatar from Niyari. It's so freaking adorable, you can guarantee you'll be seeing your fair share of these around the grid before Valentine's is over. Is it wrong that I want to nom myself?

Drowning in Deadlines

One more quickie before I collapse.



Dresses - {SMS} Summer Deco Dress - Blue & Pink - FREE
Shoes - Periquita - .:Bella Donna Poison #8 - $600L

Poses - Body Behavior - $5L each


So Many Styles has a new mainstore and to celebrate, there are brand new freebies! You can find these two dresses in the trunk by the entrance. The shoes are from Periquita and they are part of a collaboration with Donna Flora. The prim matching on the feet is a little tricky, but the jewel work is just gorgeous. Last but not least, the poses used here are from the discount section at Body Behavior. Go upstairs and to the room on the right. There you will find a ton of poses, all for crazy cheap: individuals for $5L, fatpacks for as low as $10L. Heck, you could buy out the entire room for just $110L! You probably should... ;)

Handle It

Ugh, I hate computer meltdowns. They make me miss important SL shopping time... :P



Clothing - Pig - Softies - Dandelion Puff & Dusty Plum - $125L (Stumblebum Exclusive)
Hair - fri. - Mandy.2 - Moody Brown, Scornful Red, Cynical Black - $250L/colorpack

Poses - fri.day - $45L each


At least the little compy and I survived enough to return in time for this weekend's Stumblebum Brigade! I just had to grab the latest release from Pig. Apatia needs to stop making things that make me jealous of my avatar. I swear it's kind of unfair how much I need this set in RL. The color set is exclusive to this weekend's sale and there are more layers than you'll ever know what to do with. It's crazy generous.



Tops - fri. - Draped.Back Sweater (Black, Navy, Emerald, Wine & Red) - $180L each
Hair - fri. - Mandy - Anxious Blond, Sensitive Black, Jealous Red, Timid Brown & Melancholy White - $250L/colorpack

Poses - fri.day - $45L each


My other new favorite thing is the new backless top from Fri.day. So cute - it's sexy and modest at the same time. Kind of mandatory for the old wardrobe. Plus it looks cute with or without all this sculpted prim attachments. And the new Mandy hair - adorable! You can get it with or without the scarf, but the scarf is scripted to color change and you get a ton of options. The shop has even released another fatpack of poses. I'm falling over from how much I love it all.

The city is all wrapped up like an Electronic Cocoon.

This week at +++Blue Blood+++ Ghanima has almost gone star child with her newest release 'Hawke'. Fourteen pieces of sexy, (almost)cyber, Japanese gear, complete with Obi style waist. The set is extremely versatile and there are any number of ways you can wear this fantastic set.

I've been trying to find a way to feature these Tengu/Koma slippers from DXD for a *really* long time now. Finally, the opportunity presented itself with today's outfit. While Xene isn't really creating much anymore, you can still find her amazing ballet boots, and everything else available, including these gorgeous Tengu/Koma slippers on the Blokksberg sim. With just a click you can change the number of prongs, colors as well as textures. These are considered slave shoes, so if you're into that thing, they have the support you need.

They are part of the latest set, specifically made for fedora hats!

It's a Carnival

Recently, Tacky Star has seen the release of a new line of affordable skins, Pollie. Gorgeous doll skins, priced at 100L each, and lots of different versions for you to choose from, each style coming with three different mouth options. It just so happens that today is also Aura Falta's birthday (you know her, she's generally making threats against your life in L/H group chat, and owner of Tacky Star). That means, the whole store is 50% off. Including the new Pollie line of skins. Through today, unless she forgets and decides to be nice tomorrow.

Another big find is the Lollidoom line at Rotten Toe, it's recently been shoved down into the basement of the store, and repriced to only 15L a set. That's 90L for the full line of dresses, and there is no reason to NOT buy every last one of them as they are beautifully designed and totally fun. Six different dresses in a variety of colors, and ugh so yummy. The corsetry on the dresses is a big gigantic heart for me. Thanks for the tip Ms. Core.

I'm also still wearing the new Exile hair. I can't seem to take it off recently, it's prefect because it can be dressed up, down, left, right, and sideways. The color range packs provide you with plenty of options and are pretty affordable to boot.

So happy birthday Aura, way to get old ya' hooker <3 also go buy stuff from her, cause it's her birthday and shit.

Furious Form

No freebies from me today but new creator Felon Fhang of Furious Form dropped a blogger pack on me the other day. It's a new store so there's not too much out at the minute but it should be worth watching for new alternative stuff. :3 The store is located in two locations - Delusion Kingdom and Draconis. All clothing and accessories shown are from Furious Form with the exception of the necklace, which is an old freebie you can still find at 19.


Currently liking this picture a lot because I never get to look tough. <.<


Detail on the shoes and tattoos. I think the boots are full perm mods. I like the Gambler's Hands a lot, I've kind of been wanting some hand or extended sleeve tattoos. :3 There's also a taller option on the boots.


Full length baggy pants. They come in straight leg too. :3

I noticed a few naming issues (left/right stuff) but I'll send the creator a NC so hopefully they'll be fixed. :3 And admittedly I wore my alt's shape because she's taller and it meant no editing on the leg prims, woo. x:

Oh, and Google Chrome has spell check, it is great although it doesn't know how to spell bandana. x:
