Japan

I am generally fascinated about Japanese culture. I've never had a chance to visit Japan tho. But give me some time...;) In a meantime I decided to become Japanese for a day in second life. I think the result is pretty good. All items you see in the pics cost 0 or 1L$. Not bad huh?:)

Christmas at Seldom Blue

This cute lingerie in blue is waiting for You girls for just 1l$ at Seldom Blue store. It features lovely, shiny fabrics and is full of sparkling attachements.

 

Also as a Christmas Special you will have a chance to grab a red long gown in a reduced price. Surely worth checking out!

It's getting cold...

But I have a perfect solution for a chilly day - warm outfit which you can get at FA Creation. It's a dollarbie and it's hidden in a one US dollar note (behind sofa cushions). Outfit includes: pants, socks, jacket, top and boots. And this little, white fellow comes from a marketplace store called ::relaxin':: and doesn't cost a thing:).

FTLO Scavenger Hunt is ONNN!!!

And it is cute!! Here's some of the gifties I wanted to show you.



Worn:

Hair: Bliensen + MaiTai ~ Blooming Simplicity (FTLO Scanvenger Hunt, available til 18th August),
Bikini: [Sleeping Koala] ~ Fruiti Bikinis (FTLO Scanvenger Hunt),
Mouth Flower: *Epic* ~ (FTLO Scanvenger Hunt),

Skin: :GP: Airhead.

(FYI: surf-board is not a part of the hunt, just a prop I used for the photo).



Worn here:

Bikini: Waffle! ~ Polka Dot Bikini (FTLO Scavenger Hunt),
Hair: *RezIpsa Loc ~ Helen, Bzz Bzz (Hair fair dollarbie, dunno if its still available for L$1, sorry),
Skin: Imabee ~ Stigma - Rory (previous hunt giftie),
Eye-makeup: elegant epiphany ~ queen of nothing make-up (available for L$8 on marketplace here),

Roller Skates: ANA_Mations ~ LoTopRollers (these are not free, but come with fabulous custom-made animations and are completely texture-change),
Pose: With love & squalor.

FYI this hunt is really unique in that it comes as close to a true scavenger hunt as you can possibly get in SL. Instead of hopping from store to store searching for a hunt item, grabbing the giftie then tping onto the next store, for this hunt the gift (and lm and clue to next store) is hidden amongst regular sale items in the stores, but that item is priced at L$1 so not only do you get the super cute hunt gift, but you ALSO get the reduced item too, all for L$1. I do recommend this hunt as there are lots of really good stores in it, and it is FUN to do. The hunt starts at Pestle & Twig, and there is a hunt group you can join too for help if you get stuck!

There are tons more cute stuff in this hunt that I could show you, and maybe I will when I get more of it done, so consider this a taster :)


Happy Hunting!!

Summer-chic

So its July and there are a ton of new, cute hunts that have started with loads of cute gifties to be had, as well as some new group/ subscribo gifties.



I'm simply loving this fun, cute dress from Circus Noir. This is their gift for the Greedy Hunt, which Tesh already covered some other gifties from here.

I'm absolutely in love with tattoos in Sl right now, I love the versatility of them, being able to change tattoos in SL is awesome, something I kinda wish you could do in RL (I have a couple in RL and have obssessed for yrs over whether to add another or not, lol). So I was always going to love actchios' latest subscribo gift, the realm of the gods leg tattoo. Completing the look is urban republics' tattoo gift for the Cupcake War Hunt, and dollarbie flats from chuculet.

Hair: shag - sweet treat (L$75 for project themeory, dunno how much longer this will be available at this price),
Skin: Glam Affair - Layla (My Second Wardrobe discounted item - this is a new sales event along the lines of The Dressing Room),
Chest tat: Urban Repulic (Cupcake War Hunt gift, this hunt started today and runs til July 31st - thank you!),
Leg tat: actchio - realm of the gods (subscribo gift),
Shoes: chuculet - ballet flats (dollarbie).


Oh, and if you like the cupboard in the background, that is la'licious' Cupcake War Hunt gift.

Hope you are all having a great summer!

Kouse's Resolution

My darling friend Elliandra blogged this dress but I'm sure she won't mind if I share it with you.  Kouse's Sanctum has a gorgeous gown, Resolution, out in black for only 1 L.  It is stunning and the top layer of prims don't lay like that.  I am on an alt and she has no poses.
