Sing It Out, Girl, You've Got to Be What Tomorrow Needs

And another Friday is upon us, which means two things, The Dressing Room, and Fifty Linden Fridays. Both events that I die all week just waiting for them to happen and open up. And well, there were some few amazing things that are going on today on Fifty Linden Fridays and TDR! 
For one, Ingenue is part of this weekend's line up, and they came up with this new adorable skirt, and one of them, the yellow one, is available for only 50L today, so you better hurry up and get it before it goes back to full price! Then Deco is in the line up too, with these adorable mesh sequined pumps.
Essences is in this week's line up for the TDR, and it doesn't dissapoint, it has a 70L Skin out, and with a couple make up choices for you to add. If you wear Essences skins, even if you don't care for the paleness of this skin they have up for grabs this week, the lipgloss options are totally a must for any of their skins, so I'd suggest you rush over and quickly grab them before they're gone in two weeks!

All You Need Is Love... And Fameshed....

Ah, Don't you love the first of each month? I do, and I'll let you know just why that is.


Yes indeed, if you haven't heard, Fameshed is an event where some of the best mesh creators in the grid get together, and sell some of their collection in the Fresco sim. Oh, yeah, heads up.. fameshed has indeed moved! So, time to update those lm's. 

Now, they do have a lot of adorable things, my favorite was a little ensemble I put together with three of the items that they have in there. First of all. Tee*fy.. One of my all time favorite stores. I absolutely love their work, and their mini skirt for fameshed is just what my inventory was missing. Now.. as you also know, I'm a huge lover of The Secret Store, and they have joined the Fameshed crew this month with a little top that is just absolutely adorable and extremely vintage! And those shoes by NYU.. Need I say more? So.. I went for a very retro chic look for today with items that I found in fameshed. Totally worth the lag and the trip if you guys can make it out there!

You're jokin'! You're jokin'! I Can't Believe My Eyes!

And so, my lovies, it indeed has arrived, the day of days in this wonderful month- Halloween. As such, we will continue our exploration of Nightmare Before Christmas songs with one of my favorties.. 'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie Man, and you ain't going nowhere!

Right, so I wanted to do a classy, yet scary look for Halloween, well, my first of three posts for today. So, I did what any sensible person /would/ do and headed over to the Costume Ball, and checked out what they had.. I have to admit, I grabbed a lot of things, like the hair from Wasabi Pills which is completely adorable, some other things I'll be blogging about, and this little number by Happy Undead. It's called the Black Widow dress, and the corset work, and the way it fits with the dress, I love it. It's also got a cool feature I hadn't seen before. The sizes, they're divided like.. for me, I'm normally an XS size in sl, but in here, the XS sizes come as XS-S XS-M and XS-L. For me, I landed in the XS-M size, which.. I have to say, I love this system because it makes the clothes look closer to your shape, which is one of the bad things/good things about mesh.. it kind of resizes your av to the clothes at times. 

"It's funny, I'm laughing! 
You really are too much!
And now, with your permission,
I'm going to do my stuff."

The World is Not Enough

So, going through the grid, I found a great place for men's clothes that also has some female goodies, and well, I thought, why not?

You might have heard of it, it's a little place called Kauna and their clothes... well, they're to die for! The opened shirt for women it's a must have for all girls out there that like to raid their man's closet. And the military jacket that they have? Extremely cute! And not only that.. it has limitless combinations since it comes with an HUD that you can control the color of every piece of it, like the actual coat, the strands, the buttons.. so.. you can make every wacky combination your heart desires.

Today I'm going to be showing you my favorite looks, a suit for me, and the opened shirt for women, which make for an extremely sexy look for all. Classy and sexy, reminds me of James Bond. And since the model's name is James for my guy.. well, kinda fits, right?

Also, last note for Kauna, it's extremely reasonably priced. The suit was around 800L, and the shirt around 250L on me? So.. not that big of a dent in your pocket for the quality mesh work that they do.

Blowing in the Wind

Mon Tissu, in no secret, is also one of my favorite stores to go in this grid.. I seriously think I own everything they have.. not in every color, but.. well, every single style, I think I own. Specially when it comes to their mesh.. I love their mesh work, some of the best clothes wide in the grid in my opinion.

So.. it's no surprise either that I say that you /must/ grab their new pants and coat. It's really the right start to the winter/fall holidays. And the mesh work on it.. it's soooo fabulous. I'm seriously head over heels for the coat and pants.

Also, Tomorrow Today is a charity event going on in order to help resident Matchbox Resident get a dental procedure that he needs. Most of the money made in this event will be donated to the cause. Truth, Blah, Wasabi Pills, and many other big name designers have given their creations for this cause. My favorite by far was Truth, who gave a hairstyle fat pack for only 300L. Now.. I'm not talking a color pack.. I'm talking full out fat pack, all colors, and it's an adorable mesh hair style. So just for that, it's worth going.

You Got Me Begging You For Mercy

So, I bet you guys have heard of a little store called Apple May Designs. Before discovering Essences, it was my go to place for skins. Cheap, and adorable, and for the freckles look that I love, just a nice tat layer over it, and voila. However.. when I heard there were hidden goodies in the store for 25L, I had to do a quick trip down there to see what was there.. and I was not disappointed.

What did I find? This amazing little skin, and only 25L! Yeah, it's adorable, and it comes in all shades, from pale, to goth, to tanned, and dark. Gotta love it. And two make up styles for each tint of the skin. Apple May has me begging for mercy now!

I also picked up this little get up because.. well, have you seen it? Completely adorable, and I don't even like maxi skirts. Also, if you haven't gone... Exile has new hair styles, and they got me broke D:. Still, totally worth it, some adorable wavy styles, which are worth a double take, and finally, got some accessories this time around by Maxi Gossamer that made my day, and for 199L, it doesn't even break the bank like some of the accessories stores leave you, and I think it's the perfect pairing for this outfit and the make up of this adorable skin.

Labels or Love

I effing love new releases! And these two stores are some of my favorites on the grid. So.. check it!

It's been forever since Maitreya came out with something new, and well.. I've been very very very sad about this, but! I got a group notice, and it left my mouth watering with beautyfulness. Yes, I'm aware that's not a word, but it is in Sash's world. Either way, I was left with my mouth watering over this beautiful dress that just screams fall to me. It's casual, and it can also be worn with a pair of jeans to make it look more like a shirt, or you can also just wear it as a dress with a belt.. really, there is no limit on what you can do with this to make it your own, and to me, that's the best thing you can have in a piece of clothing, the capability to be versatile  Get the most out of your money. Let's face it.. in Sl, we change often, specially when it comes to personal style, the fact that you can grab a piece and transfer it from x look to the next.. it's always a plus.

In other news.. Truth.. What can I say about Truth that I haven't already? Their mesh textures are to die for. Dying. Dying. Yup, I love the work truth has brought to the table lately, and they came out with three new styles that I'm a huge fan of. So, here they are for your personal enjoyment.
