Feelin Good

I finally got into the One Voice event and was able to get a look see at all the beautiful things for sale there.  I did buy a great necklace set....and Im so glad they've extended the event, so I can go back on payday and buy some more shinies :)  I am even more happy that the fund raising event has turned out to be such a success.  I truly hope that this helps Gala Phoenix get through this mess and come back to SL with her beautiful creations. All my best wishes go out to her. 

If for some strange reason you do not know what the One Voice event is trying to accomplish... please research these links to educate yourself, and form your own opinion. Salome Says, Slunverse, Gala Fundraiser

Pretty in Pink

Apple May Designs new tanks and mesh skirts were so colorful and cute, I had to have them :)  So as usual once I got home, it was time to play dress up.  The pink lemonade combo is my favorite, and I found the pretty spring jewelry set in my inventory, from JKtrends....I got it free by sitting on a camping chair for I believe 45 mins.  I just went and fixed dinner while I sat my AV there :) easy peasy.  I TP'd over to the JKtrends store today, picked up new group gift and to check if that spring set is still available at the camping chairs.  It is !

Feeling Blue

I got the group gift from Baiastice today and it is gorgeous.  After I got it on and adjusted, I remembered I had those earrings from Magic Nook tucked away somewhere... I could never figure out what to wear them with.  The earrings are soooo pretty, and I love the way they look with this top :) Score!!

Real quick, off topic...Aline Verrazzano's blog has information regarding a fundraiser for Gala/Curio to help with legal bills.  If you are not aware of the situation, you can find info on her blog and on SLUniverse...read up and decide for yourself.  More info HERE.

A Simple Kind of Dress

I went to check out the freebies at Womenstuff, and when I got home...I unpacked this very simple, yet adorable dress by sf design.  When I put it on.... It just had so many style possibilities.  So I've put together a few looks that this simple dress inspired.  I also picked up a couple of free skins, that are so gorgeous.. and modeled with the dress :)

Womenstuff has a few walls filled with freebies... worth a look see. Also at Mother Goose, if you are not already aware, has a huge wall of lucky boards filled with skins... that store has some amazing looking skins, also worth a look see :)

The Genie is Out of the Bottle!

My very good friend, Lyric wrote about "baggy crotch pants" or "harem pants"....I prefer the term "harem".  You can read her blog here.  Anywhoo, her and I talk about fashion all the damn time, and I too wasn't to keen on the "baggy crotch" look. BUT.... I have found a couple that I actually like and wear.  I probably won't be buying a whole lot of them lol, unless I see some that I just cannot live with out.  The pair I bought at the Spirit Store, in my opinion have a very chic look to them...they can be dressed up classy or done with a more edgier look.  The harem pants from ALB are so unique and have a natural lovely look to them.  These too can be dressed up classy or you can go for a cute boho look. The ALB pants can be bought in variety of colors too. 

I want to thank my lovely Lyric for the inspiration for this post...and for kicking my ass to get this blog started :P

I added a couple of close-ups to show just how pretty [mock] cosmetics are.
