You better wake up.

So you may wonder why I would title this post, “you better wake up!.”  It has nothing to do with the current political climate at all…It has to do with me believing that my outfit is a bit like Sandy’s last outfit in Grease.  HAHAHA!  Anywho.  I found a new store, and it’s great.  It’s called Miss Chelsea. I dropped in while doing my regular Fifty Linden Friday route, which as always, is a great little event to find new stores.  I cannot stress this enough.  FRF is one of those events where you actually GO to the main stores and not only pick up a deal, but get to peek at the stores offerings.  Like everyone, I shop events.  But I really like checking out main stores too!  There were at least 3 new to me stores in Friday’s event, and I love finding new spots to shop.  The top and tights are from Miss Chelsea, and the sky high heels are from Breathe. Hair to love is Monso and the fantastic tattoo is White Widow. As always, the outfit credits and SLURLS are below the pictures and all this and more can found on my Flickr.

The eyes have it.

So I’ve been hunting and hunting for eyes that were…errr…me.  And YAY!  Finally I found them.  And the winner is, Banana Banshee “Hely” eyes.  I’m sort of weirdly picky about eyes.  I could have gotten a HUD with 1500 different options.  I tried a demo and was lost in about 5.5.  I have this thing about Mouses’ eyes.  First off, her eyes are grey, with a hint of blue.  A bit steely.  They go well with black hair.  I’d actually found a few that were good enough, and even tried some of Banana Banshee’s other eyes, but nothing was working. Then found BB’s latest at Lost & Found and these are perfect.  YAY.  Oh and they were free.  The grey eyes are the demo! The other eye colors are fantastic too so go check them out. The rest of the outfit is a comfy cardigan from BlueBerry and some great hair from Doe, a new to me brand that I find I like a lot and will prolly go hit up the main store, since the last 2 styles have been from Gachas.  You can find more pics from this series on my Flickr, and as always, outfit credits are below the pics.

Finding Unicorns

Well some days you just don’t feel like working, heh?  That’s me these days, and so when I stumbled across a mystical being, who am I to pass up the chance to hang out?  Honestly I can’t recall where I am, just that I literally stumbled onto this and starting snapping pics.  I’m slumming it in the hooded sweatshirt from Vinyl, a new to me store, and a short fun casual skirt to go with.  As always, the outfit credits are after the pics and all these photos and more can be found on my Flickr!

Lovesick

So one of the things about mesh heads that you have to deal with are appliers.  An applier, if you don’t know yet (there’s got to be someone lol) are little boxes you attach to your avatar, click a button and walla!  You have eye makeup, lashes….lipstick.  You also have tattoos!  So whilst playing around with my February Powder Pack new appliers, I came across a cute one that puts “lovesick” across your temple.  I can’t figure out why it won’t go away.  NO WORRIES!!! I’m going with it.  Looks cute, though..sad.  I’m not currently lovesick, though I imagine that I COULD BE!  Any who, the other parts of this post that I love.  This jacket combo.  I feel like I’m out, wandering around the cold cold world, but snug and warm in my jacket. Other things I like in this post, the hair by Mithral, I wish I could get my hair to look like that in RL, and the tweed boots from S@BBiA. Also, just a reminder, you can find these photos and all my pictures on Flickr!

Opening Doors

So, I’m trying to keep a positive attitude these days.  In Second Life and in Real Life.  It has me thinking about doors.  Opening doors on the future, closing doors on the past.  Moving forward.  So that’s the theme of this post.   Lots of beautiful things to be had in SL these days.  I needed all new makeup for my new Catwa head, so I purchased the February Powder Pack Subscription Box.  Buying it before the deadline is 1/2 price – now it’s at full price.   I thought it was a good deal, gave me lots of cool make up for a low price.  Quality varies, so caveat emptor!  The shoes are from Livalle, and you really cannot beat the deal, which was a FATPACK for $50L for Fifty Linden Fridays.  You can view all my photos, past and present, on my Flickr account.  As usual outfit credits with SLurls are below.

A new SL me.

So I FINALLY found a mesh head that I like,  with the help of Bento.  It’s been months, I know forgive me.  I could find little to be excited about over the last few months.  Then one night when I was bored, I decided to try the Catwa Mesh Head, Kimberly, with Bento capabilities.  What a great thing.  I was able to pick a head that I felt was close to my old SL face, and tweak it to look like ‘me.’  Anywho, here are the results!  As always see below for full credits!  Pics are also posted to my Flickr!
