Hey guys! So I'm just dropping in quickly to let you know about a new LIMITED EDITION skin from Stix! Twee will be available in very limited quantities: 35 copies total! Initially, 10 will be available on the Marketplace, and 20 inworld. Afterwards, only 5 will be available inworld, but for a much higher price. Then she will be retired and never seen again. When you purchase the absolutely gorgeous Twee limited skin, you get it in EVERY SINGLE TONE! Yes, all 19! The pack is currently $L300, and includes the skin with and without brows, regular layers, face appliers for LAQ, Genus, and Omega (body appliers are free, and can be found inworld). I've picked out a couple of tone and head combos to show you just a few of the options possible!

 Skintones (above) : Cream / Chocolate

Skintones (above) : Onyx / Stardust (anyone who follows me should have seen that one coming!) 

(p.s. sorry for the collage images! I didn't realize the size of my photos was square instead of my normal rectangle till I went to edit them! Also, absolutely no editing has been done to these photos, other than adding the numbers, separation stripe, and watermark/box)

Hey guys, it's another fun FLF friday, and I've picked up a few things to share with all of you. I'm nearly head-to-toe deals today, so be sure to check the credits below! My luscious flowing locks are the FLF deal from Astrology today! They're back in a HUGE way and the FLF hair comes with a fatpack of tones, as well as the normal hair and a mirrored version. Even though I'm not a huge Catwa fan, I couldn't resist how adorable the FLF skin from Glam Affair was! It's catwa exclusive, but includes all of Glam's current tones, in one brow option. Cureless has become a fave of mine for eyes recently, and today's pair is no exception. The Keratoplasty eyes come in dark and light sclera versions, with 2 variants of each of those. Finally, the adorable PJs I'm wearing are the FLF item from Miss Chelsea! There's 2 colour packs available, and you can toggle the "baby girl" text on or off on each piece. These are perfect for valentines, or just for hanging out! Sizes in the pack include: Slink Physique and Hourglass, Maitreya, Belleza Isis, and Belleza Freya. Sizes for just about everyone!

Hey guys! I'm SO excited about this post today! After months and months (years? it feels like eons!) of waiting, the female Belleza bodies finally got an absolutely incredible, HUGE update! You can find all of the info about it ---> HERE. For those of you who know me well, or know me inworld, my excitement will come as no surprise; the Belleza bodies are absolutely my favourite bodies on the grid, especially the Freya body! A very dear friend of mine bought me the pack of bodies when they were still sold in an all-in-one pack, and I just fell in love with Freya. They're all gorgeous, but nothing (in my mind) beats the lovely softness you can achieve with that body! But, enough about me! This brand new update introduces a whole slew of new features:

•     Bento hands
•     Targeted appliers
•     Omega Evolved
•     Mesh Nipple Button on Alpha Tab
•     Updated skin appliers for improved neck blending
•     Improved Materials Adjustment Options  for Skins, Nails and Layers
•     Fixed Mesh Nipple Issue
•     Fixed Kill Scripts Issue
•     Fixed Nipple Tinting Issue
•     Updated applier system
•     Updated auto hide system

Holy crap, right?? I've been playing with these new features since I got the update, and I'm in love once again!
*Note: I have not retouched these photos in any way. The only alteration is the black strip and my avatar name at the bottom. Everything you see in the photos is as it will be inworld.*

BENTO!

Hey guys! The best day of the year is FINALLY here....it's.... MY BIRTHDAY!

[Have you ever started a blog post, and just have it come out completely wrong? I have been working on this post for.... about a month or so now, and I've written it, no lie, probably about 5 times. I have photographed and re-photographed for this post over and over, and it never reached a point where I was completely happy with it until now (finally...)]

For all the time I spend in the water, you would think I was an Aquarius, or maybe Cancer, but no, I'm actually a Scorpio... but that's beside my point. Astrology is a brand-spanking-new hair store (formerly Alice Project!), that made their debut at May's round of Uber... and what a glorious debut it was!

I simply cannot get over how gorgeous the new Astrology hair is! The textures are so lovely and shiny, they look like real, perfectly healthy hair, and every colour and shade is realistically tinted. No fake looking hair colour overlay here! Astrology even uses a special HUD system that lets you make your own packs and demo all of the colours, as well as change things like part colour, right/left colours, baby hairs, and more. I attempted to take some GIFs of the sexy HUD action, but my GIF program decided it didn't like to make them as large as I needed... so you'll have to go and check out the HUDs for yourself in their main store! Even the demo features completely working HUDs!

My sweet vintage-style swimsuit is a brand new group gift from Belle Epoque! The group is $L10 to join, but I feel like that's totally worth it to snatch up this lovely vintage-inspired suit. The Daisa swimsuit comes in Maitreya size only, but includes a HUD to change the top and bottom independently to any of the included 6 textures. Mix and match to your hearts content!


Finally, my nails are out right now at the Vintage fair and are from Dark Passions! Each pack contains 12 different vintage-inspired nails, which are available in Maitreya, Omega, or Slink, and each pack is on sale for just $L100 (or $L275 for the fatpack!) at the fair!

Hey guys! I am back again with my bestie from The SL Chatterbox for another cross post! We decided it had been way too long, so we put together something cute, fun, and matching. We didn't have to look too far for something, because {vincue} & Kibitz seemed to be thinking on our wavelength with their new Harty Gacha! We each put together outfits in our personal style with some of the pieces, and added on to them, of course!

Hey guys! I found this really lovely group gift from The Beautiful Ones today, and I just wanted to share with you! The group is $L25 to join, but you it gives you access to a whole slew of past group gifts. If you're in the subscriber, you get another gift as well! I'm wearing it with shoes by QQ in this month's Cutie Loot box, (which I subscribed to for the first time), a skin by Lara Hurley (25% off for We <3 RP!), jewelry by Cute Poison, and nails from Dark Passions (out right now at the Black Fashion Fair!)!

The Sabrina dress includes sizes for Maitreya, Slink Physique, and Slink Hourglass.

This dress is equal parts sexy and elegant. If you're planning on wearing it (and you definitely should!), you should make sure that either A) your skin has a PG option, or B) You're not on a G rated sim!

This skin includes 4 brow options, blush, and freckles. It is actually made for the Catwa Catya head, but I absolutely love it on my Aisha head! There are no system skins included with this pack! My nails are currently availavle at the Black Fashion Fair, and are an exclusive item from Dark Passions! the Black Fashion Fair runs from April 7th though the 21st

Hey guys! Me again! I'm back with part 2 of Lumae's offerings for Skin Fair! The Ella skin is made for the Catwa brand of heads. Below I'm wearing it on the Aisha (non-bento) head in skintone #1 - Milk (my tone of choice!), but it is available in Lumae's full range of natural tones. You'll be able to snatch this gorgeous and exclusive skin up only during Skin Fair, so be sure to move that booty if you love it as much as I do!


In addition to being available in all of the standard natural tones, each pack includes:

•  Catwa Head Appliers
• Maitreya, Belleza, SLink, Omega and TMP Body Appliers
• LOGO, Bentbox, Soul Uni EAR Appliers (not head appliers!)
• Leevi Ears in 3 sizes
• FACELESS System skins (for use with mesh heads)
• Modifiable shapes 
• Cleavage options on tattoo and undershirt layers

With Sn@tch's Omega applier appreciation sale still going on, I couldn't resist snatching up more lingerie to help really show off all of my Skin Fair finds! This is the Pixie set in pastels, which includes 10 colours, and omega appliers for each! Right now, you can grab this set for just $L75, which is an insanely amazing price! The sexy lace lingerie is so lovely that I didn't want to take it off!


If you're in the market for nails to match, stop over at this round of Genre, and pick up the "To Harriet, with love" set from Dark Passions! This design features french tips and a lovely rose in the center, in 6 solids, and 6 stripes! Appliers for Maitreya, Slink, and Omega, are available, as well as a  fatpack, with each set at a deep deep discount for the event!

Hey guys! It's only February (almost March), but spring has sprung in my neck of the woods, and even here in SL, i've been wanting to shrug off the winter layers in favor of something lighter. I hit the $L25 tuesday list in search of something lovely and springy, and was certainly not disappointed! I've snagged a maxi dress from On a Lark and topped it off with hair from Besom, a gorgeous skin from Lumae at Genre, and jewelry from Maxi Gossamer!


My nails are a previous group gift from Dark Passions! The "Round & Round" nails come in maitreya, slink, and omega options, and the pack features 6 beautiful colour options. I'm wearing the one in the red box above.

Hey guys! Happy NYE! Today is the last Saturday sale of the year, which is awesome because it's also the last DAY of the year (thank god, right?). There's a lot of great deals in this saturday sale, and it's also a bittersweet one, for me at least. Today is not only the last Saturday sale of the year, it's also AlterEgo & Enertia's last saturday sale, and the last day that they will be open. I've been a patron of AlterEgo for years and have too many of their skins to count, and the Saturday sale item from them is one that I actually suggester/requested personally. ♥

For their final saturday sale, AlterEgo has out the Mochi skin in several tones that it wasn't offered in before. I snatched up the Ivory tone literally as soon as Toxx put it out for sale. Her notice about the SS item apologized for not being able to do more, but for me, having my request fulfilled, and having her make my wish come true with the final item that the store would release means more to me than I can put into words here.


Next, I stopped over to Dark Passions to pick up their Saturday sale nails. The "Werk" the Spotlight set comes with belleza, maitreya, omega, and slink applier HUDs and includes 5 glittery colours!


Then I grabbed this cute sweater and skirt outfit, which is the saturday sale item from 1Hundred. It comes in sizes for most major mesh bodies, and is available separately in a bunch of colours.


Finally, I popped in to Reign to grab some shoes, because where else do you go for amazing shoes?? It just so happens that they are having a year-end blowout sale right now, and everything in the store is 50% off! I snatched up the fatpack of these shoes, as well as a few other items and high-tailed it before I could do too much damage to my wallet!

Hey guys! There are a whole bunch of hunts going on right now for December, not to mention advent calendars, and more, the whole month is just a freebie-splosion! I've done a few hunts, and just wanted to share a cozy outfit I put together with prizes from some of them with you guys!

First, these fun candycane-tipped nails are a prize in the candy cane hunt from Dark Passions! The pack includes Omega, Maitreya, and Slink HUDs and comes in 3 candy cane tipped neutral-toned nails, with and without a green stripe.

Here's a closeup of all of the options!


Next, my sweater and leggings are hunt gifts from Wicked! The olivia sweater, which is the enmeshed into winter hunt gift, comes in the 5 standard sizes, and one labeled fitmesh. The christmas-themed leggings are actually applier and system layer, and the hunt gift, from the candy cane hunt, includes 8 different pairs! (2 printed, 2 argyle, red, green, white, and grey).


Next on my list isn't a hunt gift, but it IS a new release! The Vera boots from Little Sparrow Boutique are unrigged original mesh, will fit just about any avatar (big or small!), and come in 5 neutral suedes to match every outfit! There is also a FREE pair in one of the gift boxes under the christmas tree at their main store!


Finally, I'm delighted to show off a new skin from Stix! This one is currently available at the Winter Solstice event and comes with system skins as well as appliers for just about every kind of mesh on the market, tons of brow options, monolid and regular lid options, 2 liner/shadow options, and 2 lip glosses, but only for a couple more days, and I'm topping it off with the Irena hair, which is one of the current gifts available to Truth hair VIPs!

Okay, so that wasn't my best title, but I hope these fab saturday sale items will help you to forgive that!

I've definitely deviated pretty far from my "normal" look with these, but I really love the way this whole thing came out! Please bear in mind that some of these items are on sale for one day only, and some are LIMITED and only available today, so if you like what you see, GO GET IT RIGHT NOW.

1 Hundred's outfit for the saturday sale is equal parts sexy and sweet, and is perfect for a day at the beach, hanging out, or just about anything! The pack includes pink and violet, and includes enough appliers to cover everybody!

Enertia's Bali top was a MUST-HAVE for me in this round of the saturday sale! There are sizes for maitreya, slink, hourglass, ALL of the belleza bodies, and even a few standard sizes to boot! Gotta love the fringe!

If you are daring enough to bare almost everything, you'll love Bishes sexykini. I grabbed the light pink colour from their saturday sale spot. It includes sizes for TMP, Slink, hourglass, Maitreya, all of the belleza bodies, and all of the standard sizes!!


The sexykini is delightfully skimpy from the front and from the back, but The real star here is the gorgeous hair from LCKY that's currently out for Midnight Madness! You can grab the fatpack of the hair I'm wearing for FREE if you can get there in time! There are only 1500 copies available, so GOGOGOGO!


Cae has an adorable set of butterfly-themed jewelry out for this round of Midnight Madness! It comes with a necklace and earrings, and includes a HUD to change the metal colours! If you're one of the lucky 1500, you can snag this set for free!


And finally, Reign's offer for the Saturday Sale is one you cannot refuse! A FATPACK of the amazing Livi V2 wedges! This comes with a HUD full of reign colours, AND a HUD that matches BLUEBERRY colours as well! You seriously should not pass this up, if you do, you're gonna have a bad time!
