So much Pink today! The floral purse that I wanted, aka the Tiny Satchel in Granny print from The Secret Store is now mine! mine! mine! Kavar went crazy at The Arcade and I benefited from it. Thanks to a hot tip from Lourdes, I went to the yard sales and bought myself the Retro Headphones from Standby Inc. in Care (hot pink) for just $50L! Score!
Also, a big huge thanks to Miss Lovely Quartet for sending me the floral purse too. Since I already had one, I don’t need it anymore, but if you guys want the purse and you have a Sleepy Eddy (UK) bag to trade, send her an IM in-world!
I’m pretty thrilled I have almost everything I wanted from The Arcade without spending a small fortune. How did you guys do? Did you get everything you wanted?
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Alena (Honey)
Truth – Jemima (Swedish)
G-Field – Lace Top (Lucy) Ivory
Teefy – HighWaisted Short Denim Skirt (Pink) S
Maubray – Marijen Wedge w/ Sock
Standby Inc. – Retro Headphones (Care)
The Secret Store – Tiny Satchel (Granny)
My friend Anna shared this link with me, so I’m passing it along to you guys. Moebells blog has visual hints to the Zombie Popcorn Hunt, along with shop name & slurls. This person is 10000x more patient than me, and I’m thankful there are awesome people like her in SL 🙂
I’ve been deeply immersed in playing Once Human, taking out countless zombies alongside my friends. Recently, Hamlet from NWN caught up with me for a little chat about the experience; you can check it out on his blog here. Today, I’ve put together an outfit inspired by my game character, though I must say, Second Life Gogo is a bit cuter.
Let’s talk fashion! I’m wearing the KillJoy Riot Set, which you can buy at Anthem. The set, which includes a stylish top and arm warmers, is PBR-only and features a HUD for customizing color, fabric, and graphics—or you can keep it simple by turning graphics off. Photographing PBR clothing can be tricky since I haven’t yet found pants that match the sheen of this top. The challenge is real when mixing PBR with non-PBR items; even if everything is black, the colors just don’t match perfectly.
It’s October, and I’m in the mood to explore a wide range of styles that I typically shy away from throughout the year, embracing the season’s spirit of transformation and creativity!
Alice stuff is HOT right now!!! The latest release from katat0nik is an Alice inspired dress that includes royalty free illustrations from the original story by Lewis Carroll. This dress is 15-piece and includes sculpted sleeves, collar, and bows. Of course, there’s matching hair!!! The katat0nik Alice hair is scripted to change the hair textures/size and color on the hair band.
If you’re feeling a bit evil… there’s Malice, the darker version of Alice. Malice is a limited edition set, only 50 copies are available!! #1-25 will be available at Axis Mundi and #26-50 will be available at Jabberwocky. The Malice limited edition set is a 27-piece work of art, includes a bloody and plain version of everything.
’Tis the season of giving. Akeruka is giving two mesh heads to group members, except the group costs L$150 to join. I wasn’t a member, so I paid the fee just to get the Wendy head “for free.” I wanted to try it mostly because I forgot I already tried and blogged an Akeruka head two months ago.
All the things I found difficult then are still difficult now. I still can’t close my eyes without my eyeballs poking through my head. I also haven’t found anyone who makes HD applier eyes for this head, so I’m wearing BoM eyes. To do that, you have to buy the AK BoM Eyes Relay on Marketplace for L$1. Yes, it’s only a Linden, but why wasn’t this included with the head? Since this head isn’t as popular as LeLutka, you’re also going to have a harder time finding eyes made specifically for it.
Even though Wendy works with EvoX skins, my usual Glam Affair skin was not a good fit. I decided to start fresh and try something new, and it just so happens that Traditional Face recently gave out a new group gift skin called Eva. Of course, I wasn’t in that group either, so I paid L$99 to join.
This definitely does not look like Gogo. When I made the shape, I started to see an older brunette woman instead, and I had to lean into the thick brows, which I don’t love, ever. I made it work here, but I couldn’t wear the browless version because the BoM brows I always use sit too high on this head. The HD brows included with Akeruka are even thicker, which is such a shame because there are no thinner options. I. hate. thick. brows.
If you’re already a member of these groups, you can get a whole new look for the cost of nothing. If you’re not, it’s still relatively cheap for a complete makeover, assuming you don’t mind paying a few group fees.
Have you noticed how some brands are no longer updating their Flickr or seem to be moving away from it entirely in favor of other platforms? I honestly can’t be bothered to chase brands from site to site, so if one drops off my radar, so be it. I only even saw this Akeruka gift because of a post elsewhere, and I already lost the link to it. It’s a shame they’ve seemingly stopped updating their Flickr.
It has been too long since I last made a shape! I made this shape for the LeLutka May Bento Mesh Head. I have made a handful of shapes for Simone, Chloe, and Spencer mesh heads from LeLutka – so I will probably not make any more shapes for those faces. I will try to make shapes for the ones I have not, such as May, Greer, Cate, and Bianca. I wear Chloe a lot, but they’re really all gorgeous when paired with the right skin.
I had a hard time just getting in because the sim is so full! lol But I did manage to score a few things before I got bumped off SL. I got a few pairs of the earmuffs from League, rainbow headphones, and a couple of snowglobes. I have a few extras that I’m going to save to gift to friends or for Greedy game prizes.
Good idea about the Greedy prizes Tracy! I got a few things I wanted like the rare rose ankle pants by curio obscura and the unicorn hat! I didn’t, however, get the fairy dust necklace from Pididdle that I wanted..yea I will be trying a few more times!
Today i visit that gacha event and i just wanted the pink ugg boots of Mon Cheri. I spent 975L$ in that machine and just get tan colored and red colored and one pair of white / brown. So i lost all my money and got just shitty colors. I never will spend any money on aracde machine again and i still dont have the pink ugg boots. I think they do something cute into that machines and put it to ultrarare to get all your money. I am feeling totally scammed and wrote an IM to the owner, how i can get the pink boots now, cause i spent about 1000L$ in that machine and received just the same things. I am totally unhappy with that event. :((((
Hello Gogo, thank you so much for help! Thats a great idea, i didnt knew that. Anyway the very kind owner of Mon Cheri helped me too. She sent me the pink boots as a gift and explained me that those gacha machines are just a game. Maybe it was my fault, cause i thought everytime i pay again, i will receive a different color. Its just random and i didnt knew it. I am feeling stupid now ;( but i got my lesson and learned it. Thank you for your help and kindly regards.
the bag suits you more than it did me, that’s for sure! prettypretty~ and thanks for the help as well, it’s cool that in the midst of going crazy greedy and spamming machines for what we want, we can turn our losses into making others happy xx
