And We Don't care About the Young Folk

And Arcade is upon us.. an after opening a lot of goodies, crying and agonizing about the things we wanted, and parading around in our new goodies, I decided to blog about some of my favorite things.. keep in mind, oh, there's plenty more, this is just what fit with the theme I had in mind, and the new exile hair for fameshed! And the new tank top from E! that I'm just absolutely in love with. So.. here's a couple of things, both wears, and furniture goodies. If you haven't had the chance to go to the Arcade yet.. you should, I mean, all the goodies are just amazing, the designers really did do a lot of amazing stuff this round, all of it is so.. I don't know, playful that it really reminds me of my childhood, been rather nostalgic while opening my goodies. Anyways, round one of the Arcade goodies that I have, enjoy! And visit now! It's worth the fighting to get in.

So, I have sneaked in a couple more hidden gems you can find in there.. just remember.. Fezzes are cool. Basically I couldn't get to the picture I wanted to do, so I made it for today! Yay! Then.. we have a The Challenge starting today. So.. what is the Challenge?

Youth Without Youth

Sooooo... I have a giant pencil, whatever argument you might have is invalid. Yup. So.. Arcade is almost upon us.. and I wanted to do a huge post, but.. for the last two days I've been working hard on the way the blog looks.. and I finally got done today. But.. it meant this post had to suffer a little. I have another picture that I will edit later when I wake up, and I have another shot with some awesome goodies to do pretty soon. Olive has some AMAZING stuff. It's pretty random, but for us that are odd, and ecclectic.. I mean.. giant pencil, poop mobile? Need I say more? Further more.. it's all just so cute, and they have fez lamps. Fezzes are cool. So, I wanted to do something cute for today, and this is just an adorable little look I compose together.. ChiMia is a new store on the blog, and they're textures are pretty cool! I do love the HUD method for the fat packs, lets you change colors of your outfit.. without cluttering your inventory with a fat pack. Love. I guess that's about it.. I'll update this a little later! Or add.. I'm not sure. But.. yeah! Here go the credits, because I'm tired as heck!

Souls on Ten

Sometimes all we want to do is have fun, and it reflects in SL. Like.. I have a huge thing for cute things that are just.. random and whimsical, and cute, and maybe a bit on the childish side. Sometimes even extremely eclectic. I don't know why, but things like that always draw me in. That's why when I got the sneak peek at MishMish's items for the Arcade, I squealed like a little girl.. water fights? Cute fishy water guns? Ums.... YES PLEASE! If I didn't get them.. I would have gone broke trying to get them all. I mean.. MishMish is known by now for their adorable and cute designs, and whimsical toys, The monkeys.. the shrubbie.. how freaking adorable! And now this collection is going to be a must for all of us that are still a huge kid at heart.

Oh, yeah.. and it's about to become very serious when you start shooting the water! It comes with a pose included in it, and it's very serious! Now.. I had to keep the carefree with this cute little hoodie by R3volt. Nyan Cat? Um... again.. YES PLEASE! This is a new release, and their attention to detail is what really got me on this guys.. it's got detail even on the inside of the hoodie, instead of just leaving it blank like many others do, so bravo for this guys! Blueberry also has a new release, and I'm huge picky about mesh jeans, and these.. absolutely amazing, i don't look like I have bow leggedness. I love them, and they come in leather front version, and bleached like the ones I have now.. sometimes the texture, in some colors, can look a bit on the odd side, but I really liked this color, I also think that they might look a lot better with some boots on! But.. I needled flip flops for this water fight at the beach! THISWASSRSBIZNISS.

Strangeness and Charm

I wanted to do a very quick blog post because I'm not feeling well, and quite honestly, the editing of the photo took way longer than I expected, and into my writing time, but.. whatever. Today I went to Hogwarts. Why? Well, I got this awesome print shirt/robes. For 50L. Hoora! It's sad that Pink Outfitters is having a retirement sale, I love them D: But.. 50L for a Slytherin shirt? Freck yeah! So I'm rocking it today! New skin for the Zodiac, and I'm loving Essences skins again, totally 100% in love with them, and the make up is so sexy on  this one. Rawr, and for people that don't like huge eyebrows, this is perfect for you, the skin has more of a soft feel to it than anything, and now they have appliers, the skin is only 175L, so go grab it while you can! Finally, cute little skirt by Cute Poison for the 100 block. It's cute.. I mean, I kind of wish it was mapped out with more detail, but I love the fit. On to the styling credits!

Ice Cream Girl

I love sweet, and cute things, like.. okay, when Nat came out with her new release for Noodles, I died. For more than one reason really, Harry Potter, and unicorns... together.. I think my world about exploded. So.. Of course I had to get my unicorn on! I mean.. come on! It's adorable, and I'm totally the type of dork that this headband takes. I don't care, I'm walking around with my unicorn headband, and SL will like it. So.. The whole headband inspired this shoot today. Who would have figured? Let's see.. where to begin? First off, I'm still rocking my new awesome skin by Essences, Opera, I love how the eyebrows look on it, and now they have feet and hand appliers, which is the reason that I didn't wear any shoes, to show off the new appliers. The one downside to this skin is really, you need brown or black hair to pull it off, the blonde and red eyebrows look a bit weird for my tastes, but it is definitely worth the darker hair color, I mean.. really, look at it, it's awesome! And now with appliers. I'm swooned. Then you have new hair by Exile, which is also amazing, I am in love with their new HUD color changer now. New Blueberry too! The cute little tank tops are now available for you to purchase at the main store, and really.. can you have enough tank tops? Not only that, the eye for detail that they have, and the fact that you don't have transparent parts on the back showing through when you wear it.. you know.. when people don't mesh out the inside of the shirt so you can see just.. through the shirt... Hate that, btw, but.. I love that in this shirt, I actually angled it so you can see what I'm talking about, that's not photoshoped, that's actually the inside of the shirt, so.. <3 for that. And then you have new shorts from Sassy. A lot of her things are a hit or miss for me, mainly due to my personal style, but the shorts are amazingly rigged, and very well meshed out, just watch out for the weird sizing, I'm normally an M, but I'm an XS in these shorts.. I don't know how. But.. well, Love them! That's about it for today, I think I've rambled enough. On to le credits!

Ready for War

So.. I'm kinda stuck in one place, unable to do much of anything, not understanding Maya because.. seriously, I think I could learn Chinese faster than I could this thing.. so I thought.. mom's laptop has Photoshop . why the hell am I wasting time? So.. I tried to do another look for the poster contest model search thing. Chandni from Hopscotch was incredibly kind in making a pose for me to use, woman power, I think she's also going to sell it in her store too. So.. I nagged for my tablet to be brought, and my mom had like no say, it was getting installed into her laptop, and I was going to do pretty pictures. Because.. well, fuck all, that's why. So.. I finally got the look that I wanted to make, a Rosie the Riveter look for this new amazing Truth hair that I have, doesn't it look amazing? I also bought the new skin for Essences, Opera, after looking at it for like an hour deciding if I was going to buy it or not. Literally. I have been staring at it for days, hours total, trying to talk me into it, or out of it, finally I just went and bought it, and no shame, I adore the softness in the face for this skin, and the detail of it, lovely.
So.. with that said, this is my Rosie, and I hope you enjoy!
