June 1st is Paint SL Purple Day to show support for the fight against cancer. I have decided to put together two outfits early, incase anybody wants ideas on what to wear. You don't have to dress head-to-toe in Purple (unless you really want to), just a little Purple goes a long way.

Gala Phoenix – Classic (Lavender) Skin
Exile – Dominique (Harlow) hair
Kira Ahn – Mara Dress (Purple)
Caroline's – Flexi Tassel Sets (Silver)
DemiDemi basket with greenonions + baguettes
Juicy – Classic Pumps (Grape)

Caroline's – Flexi Tassel Sets (Silver)
Zooby's – The Z Bag
Juicy – Classic Pumps (Peppercorn)
I'm surprised the Gossipgirl sims are still in SL, but they are! Today I took a stroll around the city for my blog photos, and broke into a few posh Upper Eastside apartments too. I have no idea what a 'Gossipgirl' wears, since I've never seen a full episode of the show, so I'm going to show you what Gogo might wear in the city :D
Kira Ahn recently released the adorable Ceran dress, yes it IS a dress!! I love Kira so much for making dresses that would barely pass as a long t-shirt. I'm pairing it with sexy white Yozo boots from Sweetest Goodbye and Bax 'Nathalie' hair.
You didn't know that BAX made hair, did you? This is the Nathalie style and it includes a color-changing headband, and you can change the color of the sparkling diamonds too. I love how the bangs are done on this hairstyle.
I have no idea whose apartment this was, but it had gorgeous artwork and decor. Kira Ahn's 'Indian' dress is like a piece of abstart art, it's so colorful and have bright triangular shapes. This dress will be released tomorrow, so stay tuned!
What I'm Wearing:
Tuli – Hope prototype base skin
BAX Hair – Nathalie (Platinum)
Kira Ahn – Ceran Dress
Kira Ahn – Indiana Dress
Sweetest Goodbye – Yozo Boots (White)
Last year I did a quick "how to emote in Second Life" tutorial, and I still see a lot of people searching for that entry so I thought I would mention it again today.
It's been several years since I've joined SL and we still don't have new facial expressions, what's up with that? Why can't we have emotions that DO NOT SUCK. For example, I just want to smile or frown while having my avatar's eyes relaxed and not exaggerated into ugly expressions. Is that too much to ask for?
How to emote:
1. Press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+D, to bring up the Advanced client menu
2. Go to Advanced -> Character -> Slow Motion Animations and click to enable it
(Slow
Motion Animations is a feature that slows down animations on your
client only, so others will not see this but it is useful when trying
to capture dances, emotes, poses, etc.)
*note: Don't forget to
uncheck Slow Motion Animations once you're done using it, otherwise
animations will look too slow on your client.)
3. Play with the random expressions on the Emoter and snap away!!
My favorite emoters are built into the Mysti-Tool HUD by Mystical Cookie.
These are fun to play with but I still think there should be a way for residents to make our own or at least have more control over the facial expressions.
Exile has just released two new hairstyles, the Ciara style has a side-braid and perfect for adding hair flowers or other hair accessories to it. Megan is a casual updo with a scarf wrapped around the hair and tied into a bow on the side. The scarf is texture-changeable and includes 6 Spring-y colors!
I'm wearing the newly released Salopette denim overalls outfit from Anuenue.
What I'm Wearing:
Gala Phoenix – Classic (Dew) Skin
Wild O – Juliet White/Blue Flowers
Exile – Ciara (Harlow) hair
Exile – Megan (Harlow) hair
Anuenue – SalopetteDenim (navy)
Elate! – Pink Rose ring
50 flats – Cherry Flats
[ 1. Cotton 2. Gloss 3. Naughty 4. Shake - All in Pink textures ]
I went to Tekuteku this morning and the new build is totally awesome!! They have added a ton of new hairstyles, I had a small hairgasm moment. There seems to be new textures too, which I'm super thrilled about since there's a wider range than before. Tekuteku hair is still 'no mod' but has a built-in resizer script. I'm not a huge fan of that, but thankfully it worked for me so I won't have to bitch about how much no mod hair sucks.
Kungler's has just released some new clothes and there's a wide range of items released this time. From dresses, to bikinis and some gorgeous tops. I'm thrilled they released a bunch of pink & white items. <3 I'll just let the pictures do teh talking, they're fabulousss….
[ Kunglers - Holly dress (Pink) ]
[ Kunglers - Susan (White top) | Kunglers - Maya (White top) ]
[ Kunglers - Bikini Pink ]
[ Kunglers - Bikini Pink | Kunglers - Short Floral (Pink) ]
Anyways, that's it for today.. I LUUUUURVE IT. What a great start to the weekend, happy shopping everyone!
The Albero mall is having an Accessory Fair and there are tons of goodies and items marked down 25-50% off just for the event. I love a small themed fair, it makes shopping super fun and not overwhelming at all. I had no idea what I was looking for, but somehow my inventory exploded with all kinds of goodies. :P
[ NODe - Umbrella_v2_N08; $550L ]
This umbrella is to die for!! The NODe Umbrella have 2 built-in poses, 5 textures ( Patchwork, Apple, Retro, Polka dot, and Paisley), open & close version, and animated rain! I don't know why but I found the built-in rain very exciting… and it's not like other rain, there are actual raindrops textures sliding off the top of the umbrella. You can't see it in my picture, but it's stunning in person. There's a demo available @ the fair.
I found this cheapie Tarnished 'Rozen Maiden Headdress' for $10L and a free Cube Sugar 'Eco Bag', they go so well together. I found a few freebies at the fair ~ I don't think I went through the whole fair so there might be other hidden gems available.
Wild O is one of my favorite hat/flower acessories shop and I was sooo happy to find a Cream colored Bouquet Hat for $100L there. This hat comes in two versions, large and small ~ I'm wearing the large version her and I really like it.
I'm wearing the Elate! 'Eve' dress in Terra Cotta, Sky, Chocolate and Lime. There are more colors available at the main store.

Wild O – Bouquet Hat
katat0nik – Bubbly Mary Janes (various colors)
Like many other SL residents, I have an SL home that I like to decorate and spend a lot of time looking for items to make it homey and comfortable.
Despite what everybody thinks, my home is not all pink! I share the island with Davo so I try to use neutral colors but it's still very very girlie. I'm not into ultra modern decor (it's too cold), so the pieces I like are a mix of old-world and shabby chic, each room is different from the next. I buy complete sets of furniture, as well as single items and even make use of really good freebies.
One of these days when I've cleaned up the rest of my island, I'll show you more!
Plastik has just released the Aishalune mini dresses, they're sexy and have great lace trimmings and brocade textures. These dresses go great with heel-less Vicky boots from MStyle. The Vicky boots are free on XStreetSL, so get yours while they're available!
Rather than a traditional necklace, I'm wearing this cute new release from Haunted Zuzu. The Asian Flower Necklace is color changeable, you can change the center, inner petals and outer petals with a dozen color presets.
What I'm Wearing:
Exile – Dominique (Harlow) hair
Exile – Jade (Harlow) hair
Tuli – Hope Prototype Base Skin
Plastik – Aishalune Dresses
Haunted Zuzu – Asian Flower Necklace

Sparkle Skye has just released the FlowerGirl Dress and it is adorable!! I had to dust off my Kid Gogo shape to show you this cute little poofy dress, perfect for all the weddings in SL. This includes several different skirt versions and lengths, along with matching White Lacey socks and Ballet Flat with roses.
Making a kid shape is tricky, since the SL avatar mesh is terrible and I couldn't get rid of the boobs or make my avatar as petite as I wanted to without looking totally out of proportion. If anyone has tips for a great kid shape, I would love to hear it! :)
What I'm Wearing:
Gala Phoenix – Classic – Pure Skin
Armidi Hair – The Ginza (Ivory)
MeBee – Little Crown
Sparkle Skye – Twilight Flower Girl (Ivory & Gold)
Sparkle Skye – Ballet Flats w/ Roses (Ivoy)

of them!! I'm wearing the Naughty bikini in Green, and Halter-Neck
bikini in Pink. There are loads more prints & colors available, but
these two are my favorites.. for now!
I'm
wearing the realistic SLink Barefoot, they're perfect for the beach and
totally easy to match with my skintone. I really like that they're
resizable too, so my feet are proportional to my legs.
Here's a close-up picture, if you don't own a pair already, I totally recommend these.
What I'm Wearing:
Tuli – Hope prototype base skin
Argrace – Knitcap – smooth shiny – Platinum hair

SugarCube has just released the adorable new Goldfish Dresses. The colors are bright & cheerful, and I totally love the sheer and goldfish-y looking layers in the skirt.
[ Tuli - Hope in Pale / Fair / Sunkissed skin tone ]
Fashion bloggers got a preview last week of Tuli's new Hope skins but now they're available to everyone, just join the TULI Update Group in-world and check notices. There's a $250L join fee but, you get a single natural makeup in ALL available skin tones!!!! Shown above are Pale, Fair and Sunkissed skin tone, they're all lovely but I can't decide which works best with Blonde hair. I think Fair might be my favorite one for Blonde hair, but I also like Sunkissed since it's Summer! These come in Blonde, Brown, Black, and Red brows, but I hardly ever wear Blonde brows with Blonde hair, since it washes out the entire face, unless the skin tone is very light. I think these work best with Brown brows, everything matches so well ~ I could switch to a different shade of blonde? But I totally dread having to modify an entirely new hair color.
What I'm Wearing:
Tuli – Hope skins
Exile – Shannon (Harlow) hair
Paper Couture – Glass Flower Necklace
Kalnins Footwear – Coquette Shoes
Katat0nik has released cheery new Ladybugged Dresses. There are cute ladybugs printed on everything, so if you love these little adorable harmless bugs, the dress is a total must have.

Sweetest Goodbye has just released the ultra sexy Yozo outfit that includes a beautiful large sculpted. The hat has a fishnet veil in the front and a matching feather on the side. The whole outfit is so daring, I love how it's revealing but not 'slutty' since it doesn't show anything.
If white isn't your thing, the Yozo outfit also comes in Black, Red, and Navy! There are matching sculpted boots for each color. I looove these sculpted boots, they're great for pairing with other outfits, too.
Tp to Sweetest Goodbye
Bag Lady has these gorgeous 'rl inspired' designer handbags & backpacks. I thought it was pretty well made and would be a fun addition to anybody's wardrobe. There are a few things that I would have liked to change, like the ability to turn off bling scripts (I was able to remove this manually on some modifiable bags), and all bags should be copy/mod or mod/no trans. The permissions are inconsistent, so when you're buying a back pack, clutch, or booty bag, please make sure it is the perm you'll be comfortable with.
Shown here are Coach inspired bags in black – the clutch, booty bag, and back pack.
This is the Louis Vuitton inspired "Cherry Blossom" print back pack that I spent at least 30 minutes killing various bling scripts inside the metals. This bag is modifiable ~ but some in this series are not (like the LV Clutch).
This is a free pink Logo Booty bag located at Bag Lady's @ Juicy Del Mar. Be sure to visit Bag Lady's main location for the entire selection & another gift (a small white bag).
What I'm Wearing:
LeLutka – LondonRevolutionLight-makeup1
Maitreya – Amber (Beach Blond)
Armidi – Evelyn Square Cut Blouse (White)
Armidi – Grace Jeans
Calypso Giano Watch – Sweet Death
UBU – Drunks Sneakers
