A guide catering to the shopaholics of second life. You know, those of us that when we see linden up in our display.. we just have to buy it all. We are all caught up in this love affair.
Guys, something is off, I'm blogging too much. I do have the blogging itch though. And with all the events starting off tomorrow, I decided that I should do a quick blog post to show case some of my favorite things. I'll be like your Oprah.
THIS IS SASH'S FAVORITE THIIIIIIIIIIINGS!!!!!
I bet you read that in Oprah's voice. You better have! Else Sash is very very very disappointed in you. But, first off, my crap. I made some crap. \o/. Oprah promotes her crap too. I don't want to hear it. I made the collar, which is scripted or unscripted, depending on what you want, original mesh and textures as always, and only 70L At the Fantasy Room, opening really soon. Then I also made the snake armband, in bright gold. I kind of did an experiment to see what kind of textures you guys like more, the bright, or the duller silver style. So we'll see. There's so much to learn with running a store, and trying to see what others like! URGH. So hard. But.. that's for we <3 RP, starting tomorrow. I love the dress from Peqe too, extremely sexy. The hair is also available in we <3 Rp tomorrow by Calico, and only 150L. With the headpiece. And another hair style. Total bargain.
So that's all for Sash's favorite things right now. I hope you enjoyed! Until next time. This has been....
It's been a while since I've blogged home. And it's a shame, I love it. Hell, it's hard for me to blog as it is, but I do try when I get the time to do so every now and then, and I actually do love this, I've always enjoyed serene dark spaces that make me feel at home. I think how this room was pulled together is very me, dark, yet comfortable, and with books. I do love me some books.
I'm going to keep it short and sweet because I'm falling asleep, but have you seen the new stuff by Trompe? For Fameshed? It's freaking amazing. The materials in it really make it pop and come to life when you kick in your ultra settings, and the fountain.. urgh, so perfect, flows water, and it just feels so high class and relaxing. Over all, Cory did an amazing job with this set, and it comes in naughty naughty adult version too for those of us that are a little extra.. not nice.
I paired it off with an old set from Cheeky Pea that I actually love, and used the home from the October round of Collab from Trompe as well, since it's one of my favorite houses, the texturing and materials together really give it a some what peaceful creepy feeling, if you know what I mean.
I tied it off with some lighting, one from the Arcade from Trompe, and another one is the candelabra from Floorplan that I absolutely love. Tegan never fails to amazing me with her lovely talent. The blinds are by LISP Bazaar, and I consider them a most at any house to really pull it together. They're very low impact, and linking them together will even lower the LI a lot more! Allowing you to give an air of reality to any home. And the rug? Well, that's my all time favorite rug by Lame Furniture. So.. that's about all for this quicky home blog. Hope you enjoyed!

Some pictures just dont need any words, I think this says it all, I really don't care to get into a huge emotional essay of some sort explaining all the feels. So... today.. just a pretty picture that really speaks for itself.
Other than that, Lark made a cute new dress that i just love, it's such an airy feel, so soft, and cute, I love it. And the hair is new from Lelutka, and the arm cuff I made, going to be released for We <3 RP soon, but.. yeah, it's snake shaped, with color changing eyes, and scales into the model. Yup. I think that's it for newness too.

Yeah, yeah, we all know I'm addicted to that movie, and I have all the feels for Elsa, and that's why when I saw this morning that a hair store came out with an Elsa hair style, I was like... lol, bye! So now I have the Truth one that is inspired by coronation Elsa, and then we have the braid style from ^;^CaTwA^;^ that I love. I don't really have much of the store in my inventory, truth be told, but.. I absolutely loved the execution of this hair, it's flawless.
So.. c'est tout for today, I just really really wanted to share this hair that I saw today because.. Frozen. That's why.

Recently I don't know why, but I've been feeling more down than usual. I guess it's just the date, and being afraid. God only knows. But as the fear comes, just you feel more isolated from people. Even if it's not true. Even if you're the person alienating yourself. It's an odd feeling to have, and I guess lately I've been longing to reach out to someone, bahhhh. Feelings suck. Fear sucks. Doctors suck. Yeah, I think that's the moral of the story. Everything just urgh. Then when I hear this song I want to cry, because it's like an anthem to myself kinda deal, just.. I don't know. My thoughts are very mumbled tonight. I am so sorry. But anywaysssss
I put up a cute outfit that goes with the way I'm feeling right now. Just... left alone, and scared and blah. Whatever, pretend the words to this post don't suck. Please? Sounds like a deal <3 Anyways, let's just go on to the credits because I can't think for the life of me.
So, there's two things in my agenda today before I head into the oblivion that sucks out my life that we call here "the hospital". I'm going to be gone for a little bit, I hope, but just in case, I wanted to do one last blog post before heading out, just because I missed working on pictures really, and there are two things that stole my attention today. First off...
Monday Meme. Oh, and Berry. It's after midnight. Hence... I did do the blog in time. You know. On Monday. UNLIKE SOME OF US. Kidding. I have nothing but love for that wonderful mango loving woman. But today, it's all about what huds and what not we use in SL in order to make it easier to take pictures. So Im posting my raw shot with the things that I use in here so you can see what my interface is when I take pictures. And just why the heck I lag out so much.
1. Anypose: Berry blogged this one too but it's just that amazing, okay? It lets you control your eyes, no more blinking while taking pics, and it lets you have facial expressions if you want too. Amazeballs.
2. Animare: How many times have you gotten your hand stuck in your skirt, or something? It majorly sucks! And it's like.. 30 minutes AT LEAST to properly fix in photoshop, or do the layering trick with PS where you have to take more than one shot. But let's face it, it takes away from your shadows, and it messes up everything in the world.
3. Kokopelli HUD: This HUD is actually free, and though I'd like to be able to organize it, let's be honest like.. I never will, I'd rather just endless scroll through there if I'm out taking a picture and let people laugh at me. I think that HUD has about 200 poses, and still no where even near the cap.
4. Phototools. It comes in Firestorm, and I use it to do a quick shot with shadows, most of the time I'll just layer that shot on top of this one, and just keep the shadows, saves me time and what not. And I love that phototools just lets you adapt everything graphic wise in one little window. Makes firestorm my go to place for pictures, even though it's laggier.
My second theme of the day has to do with... well. .feeling alienated, really. It's no secret that I used to be a huge rp'er. I miss it to this day, so so much, but with blogging and designing, I just don't have time for anything anymore. But I still do have a twitter account, where I follow some of my old friends that rp. Sometimes it's hilarious, and I wonder really if I used to look that crazy rp'ing, because, I swear, as an outsider reading these, you'd think this is a bad episode of some badly scripted reality show.
But here's the thing though, I was looking there, and came across something that I personally found offensive. Maybe I shouldn't have said anything, but at any rate I did. I said that it was offensive, and their reply was "Oh, it's just an rp post. I'm fat too". I had to stop for a second. Hold on. So let me get this straight. The fact that you're rp'ing makes it okay to be insulting towards others? Or post things that can be insutling? And why does it matter your size, or color, or anything? I honestly think, it's like the "n" word. If you don't want other people calling you it, then you shouldn't call others of your race it either. Just.. no. It's wrong. At least I feel that way. So I have to wonder now.. just.. where do we draw the line?
Putting aside the second issue, let's focus on how far can we go with our words and actions to be offensive, and still be okay with it being just a character. My belief is, if you say it, you feel at least in a part inside of you that it's true. Regardless of a character or not, you're giving credibility to the problem. Now, there are other people aside of you that read that, people that don't rp, people that don't know even what rp is. And when they read these things, they take it to heart. You hurt them. Even while rp'ing. Your actions and words ic can break someone oocly. Now.. it might just be me, I don't know. Maybe I've just been away from RP for too long now, but this is genuinely how I feel. So I just have to pose this question.. just how far is too far on what we say in an RP account?
Gosh, I'm so totally obsessed with this movie, and the song, and anything frozen. Just.. urgh. Can we say just amazing above perfection one of my favorite Disney movies ever just.. URGH.
It's funny because I really identify with Elsa. In the relationship of my sister and me. When we were younger, I actually dropped her in the head, Debs now has a lightning scar on her forehead, and I just.. withdrew from her after that, so seeing this movie was just so emotional, because for the longest time, the relationship that Elsa and Anna had, was that of my sister and me. Needless to say, I cried like a baby. But it's Disney, it's a given that I would cry like crazy.
Any who, on to the fashion, yes? I've been really busy desning lately, and going to doctors, so I haven't really had the time to blog as much as I used to, and it's killing me, I adore blogging, sharing my thoughts, likes, and pictures with you all, but it's soooo hard at times! URGH. I'm hoping that post surgery next week I can do a home shoot, I love those, just.. time is a killer really. So..
The crown, I actually made, it's Lord of the Rings inspired for the Fantasy Gacha Carnival. And since I can't get Frozen out of my mind, I kinda threw it in with an Elsa ish inspired look. The blow dress is from Junbug, along with the shawl, from Collabor88. It's truly magnificent, and this picture doesn't even do it justice. The skin and mesh eyeliner are from Glam Affair, in the Cosmetic Fair, I really adore the eye make up on thsi skin, and eyeliner is a weakness of mine in SL, the unique shape of it really makes it something, I love it. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this little quick blog post. On to the credits. Allons-y!
