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.
I adore this round of Collab! Like.. absolutely mad about it. I love everything nautical, and the designers didn't fail to deliver in this theme. I'm feeling a little nostalgic today, so I decided to go for a darker mood picture, since.. like.. if you know anything about me, my pictures highly reflect my current mood. I guess that's why I love blogging so much, it's therapeutic to make a picture, let out your emotions, listen to some good tunes, and share your thoughts. I mainly enjoy doing pictures though, I love art, and being able to edit my art work makes me a happy person. Also, I got a new graphics card. Water looks beautiful. I didn't know it could look like that. Can you tell I'm a happy camper about that?
At any rate, I wanted to share some of the cute things available this round of collabor88, say hi, kinda forget about work for a day, and do a pretty picture. I'm gonna go to the credits before I ramble too much. You all enjoy!

It's been a long time since I've been here. Sometimes I miss it. Right now I honestly do. Sometimes I get carried away, and think that I want to be with others, and then when I do, something happens, and I realize that it's better to be the hermit that I am. I've been that way for a reason. I don't know how many times I have to hit myself against the same wall before I finally learn. So I've come home. Even if it is for a short while with all the changes coming. God only knows where the wind will take me, but this is for sure, I'll be in charge of where it goes.
To those that brought the drama against me, thank you. You've waken me up. I'm going to plurge my life. Start a new. Go back to the person I am, the one that I like, the one that I'm comfortable with. And to those that try to hate on that, I don't give a crap anymore. I cared too much, I got close to too many of you, and forgot that in the internet, the soul factor is lost. It's like being back in High School, a social climb after another, step over the other to look better, and don't care about the damage. I never did well in High School, it's always taken something major for me to walk away from those that I care about. This is it. No going back. Too many attempts, and it always ends the same. I'm very sorry it has to be that way. I guess from now on I'm coming to sl to do the few things that I love. Creating, photography, and shopping.
To put the rumors to rest. I barely get blogger packs. The people that I "blog" for, they know my situation, they know sometimes it gets tough for me to do things. I've never done blogging for the free things. I've done it because I love taking pictures. I love sharing. I love opening pieces of myself I'm not comfortable sharing in the real world. I do blogging because I love it. I miss it when I'm designing. But I guess bills have to be paid. And as a designer, I'll be fully transparent with this. Why don't we send out blogger samples to groups? For quality control, for one. There are events with more than 3 times the amount of bloggers. I share with those whose work I enjoy, and let others shop. Nothing personal, but I have to make a living myself. Secondly, because we already have a blogger group, and we need to make a living. Sure, it sounds rough, and crude, but it's the truth. I don't go around asking for free stuff, I spend way too much money in SL, and out of the very few things that I do get for free, I'm very thankful, and try to showcase them at least in a plurk to give some sort of notoriety. I feel guilty receiving free stuff, and even with friends, if I want something they've made, I buy it. The rumors of me making that stupid plurk are ridiculous. That's all I have to say about it. I've shown proof it wasn't me. Now I'm saying my peace about it. I hope the topic dies, it's been very hurtful. I have fallen jaded towards a lot of my friends. I honestly can't deal with them at the moment, the thought that they would help the rumor grow, instead of ask me about it, help me figure it out, and whisper behind my back is heart breaking. The fact that they believed it so blindly, and wrongly, just breaks me. I still cry about that, I"m not going to lie. It's been a rough couple days, I've even lost my desire to work. So I hope that's the end of this.
In hopes of you that don't know me too well, to know me a bit better, and hopefully stop something like this to spread in the future, I've decided to do Berry's meme. So let's give it a try. And guys.. I'm not a terrible person. I have my moments, my flares of anger, my moments of annoyance. I'm human. But please, in the future, isntead of sitting there gossiping about me. Come to me. Ask me, let's save the heart ache. And if it happens to someone else, I hope this is a learning experience of how to handle it. I know for me it is. Not that I would ever accuse a friend that I know wouldn't do it, much less without asking. You defend friends, not back stab them.
When and how did you discover Second Life? – 2006. Old boyfriend who fell for my best sl friend. GO FIGURE!
Did you know about virtual worlds before or was this your first experience with them? – I didn't. I used to roleplay in boards, but it was fun to change over to SL where it was more interactive.
Has Second Life met your expectations? – I didn't have any, so I suppose it has?
If you could teleport back to the first ten minutes of your avatar’s slife, what would you tell yourself? – DO NOT PUT YOUR CREDIT CARD IN, YOU CRAZY COLLEGE STUDENT YOU.
How long did it take you to master avatar flying and driving vehicles inworld? – I got flying down fast. I used to only get around flying. Drivng.. idk.. it took a while since I didn't do it when I first got into sl, when I was given a vehicle, I already knew how to move around sl.
Do you have a mystery alt? – I wish I did! But no. I'm too open, and the few times I've tried it, I say it's me.
Is your SL avatar a reflection of you, or someone you wished you could be? – Fully me, the emotions are real, the behavior is me, it's all of me. I guess that's why I fall so hard with my friends, and get hurt so easily .
Is there an individual you met in SL that inspired you in your RL? How? So many! I just can't think of any off the top of my head, but many.
Do you feel it is easier to create stronger bonds/relationships with people you meet inworld as opposed to the real world? – It's about the same I suppose.
Did you ever imagine or believe people could fall in love with someone they never met before Second Life? – I didn't, but I have.
How has your perspective of dating changed (or not) since you started playing second life? –Nope.
How has your perspective of employment changed (or not) since you started playing second life? – Yes, I never thought I'd have to work out of sl, and actually make enough to do alright in my real life and pay for my medical needs. It's awesome.
Name three things in both your lives that overlap each other significantly. – work, feelings, growth.
If you could live your life more immersively in a virtual world, would you? (Kind of like the Matrix) – Oh gosh no.
How do you think behavior changes for people if they’re inworld vs in real world? Why do you think that is? – People are rude online because they don't have to deal with the consequences of their actions. Much harder to be rude when you can see the effect it has on someone.
How has second life consumerism changed your perception of spending habits, the value of money, the need to be “bleeding edge” with fashion?– I'm a shopaholic and do terrible with money. Then, now and always. But it did give me a fashion sense.
Do you think virtual worlds like SL drive and redefine human interaction or do they narrow and limit it? – I think they broaden it and help people with fears like me, though sometimes that's a double edged sword.
If technology progressed tomorrow to allow you to send emotions to people the way you’d send text or voice messages, would it enrich your SL experience or infringe on it? – It would be awesome. Maybe less people would be rude, and people would start behaving like humans online.
Name three skills you attribute to having learned or honed in second lifealone. – 3d creation, photoshop, and fashion sense.
If your grand kids googled your Second Life Avatar’s name, would they be intrigued, disgusted, proud or something else? – I hope they would be proud of the things that I've managed to accomplish despite my handicaps.
So that's about it, I hope you guys enjoy it, happy arcade, and, let's go to the credits:

It's been so long since I've posted, and I don't mean for that to happen, just kinda does. As you guys know, I have like a crapton of health issues, so it's hard for me to balance designing, blogging, and my own health at times, but! Allons-y! I feel like there's way too much to recap, and lots of inventory to go through! How in the heck did I get over 80k items while I was gone!? Busy designers be busy. That, and I don't even want to try to do a search for "poly" in that mess. Nope.
So first off, the fabulous Aime bunny lady from Mish Mish made a gorgeous jewelry box for this round of Collab, and it actually has songs and it spins and everything, and at the other side it has this cute little ring, I'm just.. so in love it's not even funny. Then you have the fab Andel Rhiadra from A.D.D Andel that made these gorgeous winter candles, and since I didn't post in December, I felt like I could bring them in and tie the whole winter theme together, along with the shrubble.. well, not shrubble, but I shall call it my shrubble and it shall be mine forever because.. the first thing that I knew from Mish Mish was the shrubble, and now they have a snow version of it that you can sit on (big) and the small one, for travel size, and bed time, of course.
One of the best things about being a designer, I have to say, is that you can make the things that you want. Like.. No secret that I'm a huge Doctor Who fan, so for a VIP gift for Wimey, I made the bracelet. "Neither Cruel, nor Cowardly. Never give up, never give in". I have got to say that was one of the best Doctor Who quotes ever. So, I put it in a bracelet, silver, for free, just 100L to join the VIP group for future discount, news, and what not. Ison now has mesh eyes, available in Fameshed, and I'm totally in love. And let's not forget the new hair by the fabulous, unique Bubbles Clawtooth from Clawtooth, which will be in the mainstore soon, and was in the last round of Collabor88.
I think that was all. Yes? No? Questions? To the credits. GERONIMO!

*MishMish* Nostalgia Jewelry Box - Pale Pink for Collabor88 (1LI)
So I loooooove this song, Royals, like.. the more I listen to it, the more listen to it, the more I obsess with it, and throughout my hospital stay, that's literally all I could play in my phone. I think I made my husband sick. Soz. Not soz, really.
Anyways, I went to Collab, and that's all I could think when I saw the amazing stuff that the designers did this round. Can we please talk about the lightbulbs that Tegan Serin did from floorplan? I'm dying a little, and you can change them to any metal you want. Bronze, gold, silver, platinum, and charcoal. The textures are lovely, whenyou turn them on they don't look like a hot glow mess, and they're just fabulous. Then you have Trompe, and I adore these chairs, and the chandelier.. urgh. It's so classy, but not royal, it's just my style. The cat though, that's Sway's release for FLF, so.. make sure to grab it today while you can, so adorable, and unique, it's a cute must have piece. The rug is from Lark, and well, the scene just needed a cute rug to pull the look together, I think.
For clothing, I did all from Collab, the shoes are fri.day, and they're adorable, point heels, and with a cute little emblem on the side, can't really see it, but it's adorable, and works with Slink feet. The skirt is from Tres Blah, it has a minor problem with the rigging though, so when you sit, the studs, and the skirt sometimes go different ways, I noticed, it's a little on the annoying side, but for standing, it's the most adorable skirt ever. And the top is also from Tres Blah, and it's just soooo cute, I can't live without it. The necklace is new from Yummy, and seriously, they never cease to amaze me, it's so elegantly understated that it's just hte perfect piece to pull off the theme. New hair by Bubbles Clawtooth too. I adoooore Clawtooth hair, possibly because I'm a little obsessed with Bubbles and how fabulous he is, but.. also because the textures are always more.. I don't even know how to call it, it's got more of the indie vibe that I love in my styles, and for some reason I'm digging weird colors lately, so I stuck with the Princess Bubblegum color, but.. yeah, I adore this hair style!
So, that's my Royals inspired style, mostly from this Collabor88 round! Make sure to get it all because.. this round is truly amazing!

Skin: Essences - Lily Doux *blonde* Available Soon.
I needed to do a quick lotd pretty much because I've been wearing this outfit for two days I I freaking love it, but I couldn't take it off without like.. putting something out there for it cus.. I freaking love it. It's based on one of my favorite Disney characters, probably my second favorite after Maleficent, just because I completely love his song, and I totally love how it came out, the look I mean, the pic was a quickie, so forgive the lack of detailing on it, but.. Collab this round is totally amazing and.. BOOM totaly inspired me with the little top hat. I actually talked to her, turns out I got the inspiration right! And it isnpired a whole Dr. Facilier look. I wanted to do more, but I'm kinda working, and well.. yeah.. this is cute. You guys should dress up like Dr. Facilier, and sing his song all the time like me. Sound like a plan? Yes? Yes?? OKAY. Do it. I'm going to just go to the credits cus I'm uber busy with the fair stuff, and with making stuff, and trying not to be sick and die. Okay? Kay. Kay? Cool.

So it really shouldn't be a surprise that I love anything and everything Harry Potter. But.. well.. I should seriously change that. I don't love Harry Potter. I love the Death Eaters, and Voldemort, and the Malfoys, and Slytherin. So with school starting up, and also Mischief Managed about to start a new school year, I decided to do a small Slytherin look for my blog today, because.. I mean, why wouldn't I?
One of my favorite activities in Second Life is roleplaying. Before I got into blogging, and before I started to try to be a wanna be builder, all I did was roleplay. This goes back like.. Oh God guys.. 2006? I started out in Gor, like a lot of people, and then started moving towards either Hogwarts sims, or Urban sims. I still remember my first Hogwarts, with Harry Prefect and Darcy Ruthledge as owners. I met some amazing people there that I still keep in contact.. at times, I have to admit, I'm so shy at times I don't, but! I still keep in touch and love them, and have very fund memories of them. Now, I find myself in an awesome Hogwarts inspired sim, that is just so breath taking and well built, I guess it would be the closest thing to being in Hogwarts for real. I adore this sim, and I actually can't wait to be a part of the new school year! I'm going to be around amazing friends, new and old, and I think it's going to be fantastic.
So.. I guess this ties in with the group meme that Berry posted this week, because as a blogger, wanna be builder, and a role player, juggling group spots is sooo hard! So I thought I'd give a crack at the meme this week. Here we go!
Meme Instructions: Answer the following questions about groups and share some of your favs with us. Don’t forget to leave your link in the comments!
Have you reached the 42 group limit? Yup. All the time, regardless how many times I try to clean up! Welp.
Do you do a lot of group hopping to keep up with all the groups you want to stay a part of? Yup, it's the only way to try to be able to manage them, really.
What makes you want to join a group? Either they have to be a designer that I completely and totally love, a roleplay community I'm very active in, or blogger groups. With designers moving to subscriber style things that send you the item instead of you having to join a group it's starting to become easier to manage. Still though.. designers that don't use this system- PLEASE DO! Kay? Kay. I am so glad we had this talk.
A lot of store VIP groups have a group fee which you have to pay to join. How do you feel about paying group fees? I'm not a huge fan of group fees either. Though.. i guess.. at very few places it's worth it. The only two groups that I've joined that have group fees are Auxiliary, Mon Tissu, and Gos. The only reason is because the benefits surely do outweigh the cost. Though I'm starting to double thing about Mon Tissu, that was a hefty joining fee, and very little for it, I'll be honest.
Name a few groups that you are a part of that you feel everyone should look into joining and share your reasons behind that. –>Mischief Managed - why? Because Harry Potter. Need I say more? I've always wanted to embark in my own Hogwarts story, and I finally get the chance to do it, so.. if you're an uber Harry Potter fan like I am.. join! But keep in mind.. Slytherin are the only cool people. If you're not Slytherin, you're really not part of the cool group. Specially if you're a badger. LOOKING AT YOU SCARLET CHANDRAYAAN! –> Auxiliary VIP group. You get free gifts often, and even though you have to pay a joining fee, Tyr and Ivy's designs are amazing. Love them. –> Noodles VIP group. Because.. Nat is an amazing jewelery designer, and she gives store credit for your purchases if you're wearing your VIP tag, and free group gifts. Just for a small joining fee. So of course it's worth joining! –> SLBlogger support if you're a blogger is a must! You get to keep up with the community and what's going on, and there's always someone there if you have questions, and they have a nifty little website that keeps up with everything blogger. Love that group.
So that's it for the 42 Blogger challenge..and.. don't forget to join Mischief Managed to become a Slytherin today! Big things will be happening soon! I promise. And don't join the Hufflepuff house. Badgers like to pretend they're cool.. but.. come on, really?
I did warn that I got a lot of hair, right? I think so... well, more hair fair!
Hair Fair.. honestly one of the biggest events of the year. I get so giddy when I see it come about. And I still have more hair. Really, this is only part II and I'm not even blogging all the goodies I got, only my favorite styles that I found. I'm still irked because I keep hearing people say that it wasn't good. Like.. I suppose everyone is entitled to their opinion. Yet at the same time, I have those friends ask me where I got the hair I'm wearing. I'm just all like.. Err... well... Hair fair, it's magical. I have lost count of how many times I've sent people packing to hair fair, like.. come on guys! Walk through it! There's soooo many new names just.. It makes me sad to see that you're not taking the full advantage, and discovering! There's so much more to hair than Exile, and Wasabi Pills, and Lelutka, and Truth.
Now, don't get me wrong. I love those stores guys, prove is here, all three releases of Lelutka are in my favorites' list, but.. I guess I just tried to go out of my comfort zone and see what else there was. Like.. Baiatice and Auxiliary being in the line up. Ummm... Excuse me! Since when? And I'm not saying this is a bad manner, far from it, they're two of my favoirte stores, so... if anything I just got really excited. And they didn't disappoint me! Far from it, I was excited to see what they came out with. I know that Auxiliary has dabbled in hair before, just never seen something like this. And the Baiatice hair, well, that's for sure worth a second look. Then you have Alice Project. A lot of the times, her hair doesn't really fit my style, and it took me forever to color my hair because I bought the Create Your Own instead of Infinity, and tried using my infinity HUD on it. Well. Woops. These two hair styles though left me drooling. Alice really outdid herself for hair fair.
Lelutka, dear God. Lelutka can't ever do wrong in my eyes when it comes to hair, and one of them had a fades pack, I literally just threw my hands up in the hair and said good bye to my money, and bought. Loved. Eaters Coma also had a really nice release. They're not a huge name in hair yet, but I think they should be, a lot of their releases are just so cute, I totally love. And Last but not least, Clawtooth. I'm a huge Clawtooth fan, and I've blogged a couple of the Hair Fair looks as well, So.. yup! That's rounds off Part Two of Hair Fair. Stay tuned for the second part. After I really get some sleep. All this editing is making me die. A little. Each day. Kidding, but! I hope you enjoyed this, and it opened your eyes up to some more amazing hairs that you can find at Hair Fair. Don't forget, part of your purchase goes to helping Wigs for Kids! So each Hair that you buy helps make a difference in a child's life that is battling with cancer. I can't even begin to say how much this organization means to be, so be generous! And chop to your heart's delight. Sash out!

So... another week in the hospital, this is getting really old, but I'm finally back. Well, been back since yesterday, just took me a little because I really really wanted to do something good for this post! And I'm actually pretty happy. A lot of things have been happening. For one, HAIR FAIR. I love hair fair, and I was lucky enough to have one of my works selected to be displayed guys! And even though I didn't get to use my early pass for either hair fair bloggers, or my early pass for winning runner up, I am still so happy and humbled to be selected for both, so thanks to the Hair fair theme. And I still managed to shop.. over 20K worth in hair, trust, I'm a shopaholic when it comes to hair, but.. it's worth it guys, a percentage of your sales goes to Wigs for Kids, which also helps other kids with cancer .. well, have wigs! So I love this organization, and I have no problem on dropping a lot of cash to support! Make sure to go and check out Hair Fair this year. It's built in LEGOS. And it's amazing, they outdid themselves. Shame Truth wasn't there, and I don't even wanna know the story, so gossip starters, don't even! I also checked out collab, and that's where the rest of my linden went. Wops. But.. well, Aime actually gave me these cute little fairies, they're so adorable, and they make me cry every time I detach them.. because Aime is a very evil bunny filled with cuteness. I just can't. I wanted to do a follow through the forest kind of theme, reminds me a little of Sleeping Beauty.. following the glowing light to her doom! Except.. they're good fairies... I hope! So I also went to Maitreya and got the jeans.. because.. Maitreya has a sale, and they have the best jeans in grid, so I had to fat pack! All in all, a lot of shopping.
Oh.. yeah.. this skin? The newness of essences. It's so soft and adorable, Cho is a must if you are going for more of a youthful/soft look, or Asian. I went for youthful. And also, a plurker friend sent me these a long time ago, but.. I've been bad! So much going on, but.. doctor who nails. I'm a huuuuge fan of Doctor Who, so.. .yeah, I'm rocking these pretty often. The necklace is from Noodles ( <3 you Nat) and the shirt is from Milk Motion. All are available at Collab this round! Oh... and don't you love the eyes? Newness from Ikon. Sort of, just.. close up of them. Hope you enjoy guys! On to the credits!

Fairies: *MishMish* Lil' Fairies (Amoriata, Girosham, and Lockmeth) for Collabor88
That's kind of how I feel right now. I've been away from too long. From blogging, from life itself. Kind of sheltered in my little cocoon, afraid of hurting. Afraid of grieving. But I've been away from too long, so.. it's time for another post, and hopefully maybe soon I'll be able to take the step forth and face my problems.
But let's tackle a problem at a time! First.. what am I wearing today?
Adam and Eve has a new skin, that's completely adorable, and I'm head over heels with. I am a fan of Sachi's, I'm not afraid to say that. The main reason for this is that she does have original skins, and each one of her releases does look different, it's not a carbon copy. You can tell it's the same maker, they have the same element to them, but.. they're still original each and every one of them, which makes it a joy to go back to her store to get new things. You don't feel like you're paying for a skin that you already have slapped with a new name, and a minor change. Then again, I've always been one to praise originality. Also, her skins have dimples. Now.. in this skin, the facial features are so sharp that actually adding dimples aged the skin too much, which is a good thing if you're looking to play a character in her mid thirties.. but.. even without the dimples, it looks like a more mature skin. And by that I don't mean 60 years old. It looks gorgeous, classy, and mature.
=Krautuve= also has a new release, and it feels forever since they've had one. It's a release of kind of dark sweaters, but I did love this cross one. Crosses seem to be very much in as of lately, lucky for me, I do like this trend. I am very religious, and I'm sorry to say this, but.. the fact that a cross is trending to me is rather cool, means I get to show something I believe, and it has a good style to it. High fashion, and something I'm passionate about. Need I say more? Total love.
Finally, Collabor88 opened, and it's got me in for a shock. Truth was there! I mean.. I'm not blogging their look, but.. I was just shocked that truth had an item there this round. However, I'm totally in love with this new hair mesh style by Clawtooth. Also, the poses from Marukin are totally aodrable! Don't forget to go to collabor88 this round and get amazed!
Valentine's is almost upon us. And what is better than giving the one you love all you have? In more ways than one... I guess, what I'm trying to say is.. You can have it all, my empire of dirt. I will let you down, I will make you hurt. I know it sounds bad, but in my mind.. those lyrics are so.. lovely, just because they're true. Don't lie to me, tell me the truth. I know despite what you say, will let me down, time and time again, and I don't care what you have.. in the end.. it's all dust. But.. let me have it all. Hurt me, but be with me. When you see it that way.. it's romantic, isn't it? Or maybe I'm just weird.
And with Valentine's almost here, I thought I'd start by bringing the sexy back. Or rather.. Sassy is. This is for the Boobies Show. But.. lucky for all of us non lola wearers, this outfit still looks amazingly sexy without big knockers. Even though they sell it as a dress, I see it as an intimate piece.. Like.. sexy lingerie type deal. But then again, I'm extremely conservative, even in my sl, so.. no wearing this in public.. however, I will totally take a sexy picture of this in my bedroom, and post it for all of you to see. I paired it off with just a necklace, some easy sexy hair from clawtooth, which instead of taking away from the dress makes it look more.. classy and effortless, I suppose, and a pair of heels, so I could totally be the hot babe in the bedroom.
I think I'm ready for Valentine's day? A little early, sure, but I'm ready. Bring it!

That's exactly how I feel, maybe not psychotic and neurotic, but.. sick and all by myself. Yup. Then again, it's my fault. I decided to go to get cigarettes while sick, and it totally just rained on me.. hardcore. To the point that by when I got to the gas station, I was completely soaked. But.. it was closer than going back home.. so.. urgh. Stupid decision Sash. Now you're so sick you can't even smoke. Ha! I guess joke's on me.
So, since I'm feeling so sick, today is a total day of comfort. PJ pants, warm tea, humidifier, and fuzzy slippers. It's even so in Second Life. No high fashion today, just warm tea, and comfy sweaters while staying home. This big huge sweater by NiNight Creations completely fit the bill on what I was looking for, and it has a cute little pattern on the bottom too. I was lazy and just paired it with some old run down tights to give it the night before kind of feel to it, by Deetalez, and I'm also wearing the new hair from Collabor88 by Clawtooth.. Now, be warned, it's worked up a little to give it more of a sick stay at home look in photoshop, the original is no where near this messy. Just a slight sacrifice for the sake of art. And I did find this cute 1L cold/flu tattoo layer to add to my skin, it reddens the nose, and also adds little teary eyes to your skin. And it's 1L in the marketplace! I had to get it to complete this look.
Just because you're sick and wanting to dress down.. doesn't mean by any means that you have to actually look bad, now does it?
And I'm not a slave to the money only.. I'm a slave to fashion. And Second Life. Urgh. At least it'll make for an interesting life while I have it? This song kept ringing in my mind while I did this picture, it's so sweet, and soft, and true to an extent.. And well, you all know I have that soft weakness for melancholic songs. Ah.. The Verve.. this song always sways me...
Much like Collabor88. I literally stayed awake until 2am my time just so I could go to Collabor88 as soon as they opened. And they were a whole minute late! I was watching you all! But.. alas, minute late and all they opened, and the collection this month left me drooling! Tres Blah came up with something new, which made me grin like a little girl, because Tres Blah has been one of my favorite stores since.. well.. forever! And new hair by Clawtooth.. in mesh! And D!va was there too, in short, you seriously have to go to check it out.
I'm also using again that new skin by Adam and Eve, it's a really really old store, and I haven't been in so long, and even though the blonde eyebrows don't set well with me, I'm just.. in total love with this new skin of theirs. Dimples! That's something skins should have more of.. I know, I sound like a total dork falling in love with dimples, but for me.. that's just one of the cute things.. you know? Dimples and freckles, and the fact that this skin has a dimple tattoo layer.. I melted when I saw that.
Most of what I'm wearing for this post is from Collabor88, so if you like it, go and get them! One whole month for you to collect all their goodies, and at extreme low prices. I know I'll be posting more about it as the month goes and I get time. Hope you guys enjoy!
So, I think this might be the last post before I go away for two weeks. Again, fret not my lovies! Like the Terminator, I will be back!
I'm closing right about now with the day that I started my blog.. a month strong, and still loving it. I really do enjoy sharing my fashion tastes with all of you, and I'm guessing you enjoy reading about them and seeing the crazy I come up with, so thank you for that! It really does mean a lot to me.
So.. what do we have today... Fifty Linden Friday! Yay! It's time to throw your Linden up in the air and feel like a rich person!
For this week's collection, I really did fall in love with LaGyo, Clawtooth, and So Many Styles!, All had fabulous additions to the collection that made me feel like I could go for a glam rock kinda look to it. I totally love the vest! It's not something I normally go for, style wise, but.. It's totally cute and really can add the flair that your outfit really needs!
