The new UBU Drunks by Urban Bomb Unit are incredible!! I'm a huge fan of UBU so I was so excited to see a new release and especially the new Customizer HUD which makes customizating SO much easier and more fun too! I'm truly amazed by the sheer number of options available, every part of this shoe that you see here is customizable with different colors and fabrics choices. Another perk is they are unisex! I've tried to make a variety of customs to show you that they really suit any mood – girly, army, gold (is that Burberry fabric I see?), and platinum!
In addition to the drop-down menu to change size, here is the new customization HUD. When you click a part of the shoe that you want to mod, it will turn red on the HUD. You can select several pieces at once to mod if they will have the same texture. This is genius…. I LOVE IT.
The attention to detail is amazing and everytime I get my hands on a new pair of UBU, I keep thinking they'll be the last pair I'll ever need. But with great shoes, one pair is never enough. I have every pair of shoes from UBU and I still get excited when there's a new release.
Right now these are on sale for $595L, there are gifting options available.

CUPCAKES has just released the new Seduction skins! Each skin tone has 10 makeups and freckles version. I chose the Cameo skin tone because I like the light tan but also because the brows are brown. Depending on which skin tone you purchase, the brows will be either brown or black. Brow options would be something that I think a lot of people would want, even more so than freckles.
I really like all the makeup choices, but especially 'Natural' since I love it when skin creators do the 'fresh-faced' look well. The lips on these are gorgeous! Here's a close up photo:
What I'm Wearing:
artilleri – dallas *brown*
CUPCAKES – Spring Halter (Floral) Pink
CUPCAKES – Jeans Shorts (Tan)
HUB – Venus Sandals, White Pearl
When I sorted through my inventory the other day, I noticed that I have dozens of hairstyles from one brand and only a handful or none at all from others. WHY? Sometimes it's because brand A has cuter styles that appeals to me more but let's just pretend that brand A and B both have cute styles at similar prices and I adore them both. Brand A fits 90% of the time straight from the vendor, whereas with brand B, the demo doesn't fit right and I can already tell that I will be remaking the hair pretty much, which I hate.
[ Example Brand A | Example Brand B | Example Brand C ]
For example, with hair A, most of the time it's a perfect fit and I don't have to move a single prim, but when I do need to modify, it's very slightly. Modding hair A would take me 10 seconds at most (edit, stretch a few decimals, done).
Hair B on the other hand, takes a bit of work. Maybe I can stretch it, but I also have to move some prims around too, since I don't actually want to stretch too much and have the bangs be floating too far away from my face. It all depends on the style.
Hair C, I'm actually going to avoid buying completely. I can already tell that I'll be spending most of the evening remaking this hair since too many prims are sunken into my avatar's head.
I can mod hair prims, and even with hair C, I did a pretty good job and kept the integrity of the hairstyle as the hair maker intended, but it wasn't fun! I don't mind modding hair, but I mind when I've purchased a fatpack and I have to do anything more than just simple stretching. I like all my hairs to be modded the same way, and it bugs me when modding a hair involves more than a dozen steps, ugh.
So yeah, hair makers of Second Life, if you care… that's the reason why I don't have more of your hair or none at all. They don't fit me! Your head/profile is too long, too flat, too short, too round, too narrow, too small, etc. When I buy a new hairstyle, I just want to wear it and not feel like I'm assembling hair from a DIY kit. I'm pretty happy when hair fits right out of the box, see below:
Some of my friends will avoid hair brands because "the hair doesn't fit". For me, where there's a fashion will (like I totally love your hair), I will find a way to make it fit. But for some others, maybe they're not good at modding prims and they just want to look cute right away? Your hair brand is now less appealing, and may even be avoided.
I'm just saying! I might be a minority opinion, I might not. If you want to be as popular as hair A, maybe its because hair A fits the majority of the customers that passes through, whereas hair C sends the newbies running cos they've written your brand off after trying on demos.
Katat0nik made this great Making Memories dress, a freebie at Starlust Motel lobby. I love this all the colors and cute unicorn print on the skirt. This dress is too good to be a freebie!!! But it is.. we're so spoiled rotten by Katat0nik's amazing gifts. Anyways, I'm getting my Easter outfit ready really early because my friend Gal sent me an Easter basket today and said, 'Happy Easter!'. I think it's actually 2 weeks away but whatever.. I love this outfit :)
To complete the dress, I'm wearing all candy accessories! The Candy BackPack is from Photon Pink's and Candy Bauble necklace and earrings form Ztique! Candy overload. <3

Fishy Strawberry has just released the ‘Dancing Queen Dress’ in many colors but I chose the Light Gold because it’s glam and goes well with golden accessories! I love texture on this dress, I thought that pairing it with too much gold could be overwhelming, but it totally works here. I’m gold from head to toe, except for my shoes cos I really wanted White on my feet, since the other colors drew attention away from the dress.
What I’m Wearing:
LeLutka – LondonRevolutionLight-makeup5
MiraiStyle – Romi (Pearl) hair
SLink – Caged Platforms
Fishy Strawberry – Dancing Queen Dress (Light Gold)
ICoN – Heart necklace gold
Bare Rose – Clutch Bag Yellow
Hal*Hina has the cutest hair inside their Bunny Hop Grid Wide Hunt egg! I adore this Japanese hair shop because they have the cutest styles and all the hairs are cheap! But not cheap in quality, the quality is superb.
You know you want it! The Hal*Hina 'Priscilla' hair pack says its a limited color sooo maybe they made the colors exclusively just for the hunt. The colors are Corn Blonde and Almond and they're SO lovely. I'm so glad it's Blonde hair too! <3 <3

Mouse Mimistrobell of Dark Mouse jewelry has just released some adorable new jewelry sets for Spring! I'm wearing the Wild Animal bangles, earrings, and matching belt in Zebra print above. Animal print is so tough to wear since it can be very loud but when it's done right, I like it a lot.
This is the Flowers are Blooming set (necklace + earrings) in Silver. Dark Mouse has really great pendants, they're really marvelous prim work. These are my favorite types of jewelry from DM, since I love a large pendant necklace.
Tp to Dark Mouse!

Petit Ange has just released the 'Shiny Satin Gown' in 14 different colors! This can be worn as a gown or as a sexy body suit with stockings and gloves.
I'm wearing the Petit Ange 'Squared Crystal' jewelry set in Gold and Exile 'Cassandra' hair, my new favorite hair because it's so blonde and lovely. I really like the 'Harlow' texture too much!
JUICY is participating in the Bunny Hop Grid Wide hunt, which officially starts tomorrow. But I have decided to release my gift a day early, so if you want to beat the lag, tp to my main store for the gift.
I made a mix pose pack of all my latest poses, they are inside a sculpted heart scripted with a drop-down menu on touch, to cycle through the poses.
Look for a pink sculpted egg! :)
