Woohoooooooooo!!!!!!! I was bored, so I made a new banner for Fall 2009. YAY. I hope you guys like it better, and if you're reading this through a feed reader, you're totally missing out!! Banners are tough cos they're an odd size and I suck at PS. BUT, I tried! 🙂
The Newbie Style Challenge ends tomorrow, so I quickly put together two looks that cost me nothing, since I forgot to send my alt money. I was able to put my looks together pretty quickly because some shops, like COCO, had a whole wall of freebies that included clothes, shoes and accessories.
So many people put together far better looks than I did, I’ll try to find time to check out all of them and maybe post links to a few of my favorite looks here this weekend.

Apple May – Mia (Beige) Naturals Nude A
D!va Hair – Akane (Citrine) Free

I’m currently embracing my Victorian era aesthetic. The Rejoice dress by Toksik is absolutely stunning! I’m on the lookout for more intricate outfits in Second Life that offer built-in layers and customizable options, as casual wear has become quite mundane. My avatar resides in the Victorian town of Aurelias, and to blend in, I chose a color palette of navy, black, and a touch of baby blue for my outfit. I opted for the fatpack of this outfit, so expect to see me in various shades of pastels and whites in the future.
I was genuinely upset when Toksik closed their Flickr account. I have a preference for following all my favorite brands on a single platform, and Flickr is it. I’m reluctant to follow brands on other social platforms like Facebook, Tumblr, or Instagram as they don’t serve my purpose for brand engagement or building a shopping list. Flickr is crucial for connecting with brands, especially for someone like me who blogs about their outfits, promoting them in the process. It would be beneficial for Toksik to consider returning to Flickr, as numerous brands that have left tend to return upon realizing the adverse impact on their customer base. Flickr maintains a robust presence within the Second Life community, notably among bloggers and photographers who help drive sales.
BOOM will be releasing this Marin Ray set in a few colors for the upcoming Collabor88 event (starts April 8th)! The theme is for April is French New Wave, so be sure to check it out! I’m also wearing the cheLLe French New Wave eyeliner that will also be available, so be sure to check it out!
Do you guys want these bracelets? They’re FREE! Ohmarie made them as a gift for her brand (look for the Easter eggs, at Ohmarie) and she also made a JuicyBomb version for me, and you! I’m giving away a copy of the Juicybomb bracelet at the Juicy Cafe. When you enter, look for the key holder box hanging near the front door, it is sitting on the box.

BOOM – Marin Ray (Coquille)

Shag has just released 2 hairstyles! The pic above should be the Heat Wave and Baby Got Back hairstyle but when I unpacked the package, it gave me Restrained (an older release) instead of the correct one, ooops!!! You can see the correct hairstyle @ the Shag blog.
