Fishy Strawberry is back after a brief hiatus! The new Apron Top and Waistband Mini is available at TDR Fusion this month. I especially love the bow & ribbon on the backside of this top, so adorable.
What I’m Wearing:
Exile – This Years Love (Vanilla)
Pink Fuel – Harley (Peach)
Fishy Strawberry – Apron Top (August Peach) S
Fishy Strawberry – Waist Band Mini (Classic Denim) S
CandyDoll – Oxygen II
Sugar – Yummy Bites Headband (Carrot Juice)
Shag – Sweet Disposition | La La Love You (2) | La La Love You (1)
Shag has just released 3 adorable new hairstyles!! I am loving these, especially the La La Love You (20), it has a shagalicious retro look to it. I really like how this Blonde color goes with my Sunkissed skin tone.
Shag – La La Love Me (Blonde)
I know how much you guys love FREE items, so don’t forget to join the SHAG subscribomatic group in-world to receive this La La Love Me hairstyle in Blonde and Onyx for free. The hair includes an optional heart-shaped adornment.
Truth has just released 3 adorable new hairstyles as well! I am loving Kirsty’s wavy pigtails & the sweet Berry hairstyle has a color-changeable hair flower. I’ll probably be wearing Berry a lot, cos I love that sweet island-beachy-girl look.
I made a shape for Laqroki’s latest release, the Jasmin skin because it’s gorgeous!! Laura is more refined than my normal shape. I like this shape a lot and might start featuring it more on my blog.
My beautiful JADOR "Diamonds party" platinum ring. This ring is so large and awesome I’m not taking it off for awhile!
Could this be the new me? Every time LeLutka drops a new mesh head, I hope that it’s one I can stick to, cos I love change. I feel more flexible when I can make many different versions of myself, to go with any skin. My favorite head right now is the Avalon head, but I’ve worn that for a while now and I think I’m ready for a change. The last mesh head release, Gaia, was a bit too youthful for me, but I still thought that the head shape was very pretty. I probably could have made it work, with a few more shape tweaks.
’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.
I haven’t taken the Ember skin from Pink Fuel off since blogging it yesterday. I love how an old skin can be transformed into something “new” just by adding some extra blush and new lipstick tattoo (with teeth). I still can’t believe this skin has been marked down to $100L, it’s easily the nicest cheap skin on the grid.
Malt is releasing this sexy 60’s inspired Vintage Cotton Tunic at Vintage Fair. I love the girlish style, very short and wearable. Pearl jewelry is classic, so I added the Simple Pearl Necklace & Earrings set from Caroline’s to dress up the cleavage area.
I blogged about D!va hair a few months ago, and I think I forgot that the hairstyles there are ‘script mod only,’ which is totally frustrating. I have since deleted all those hairstyles but when I went back this morning, I picked up a cute new hairstyle and instantly remembered why I deleted those hairstyles in the first place! It was a challenge to get this hairstyle to fit me, cos some strands just went into my face/head and couldn’t be moved individually. The script mod is terrible, it didn’t even have ‘move’ feature included! It still doesn’t fit quite right in my picture, but oh well. The hair is cute enough, and pairs perfectly with the new Vintage Headband (in Silver) from LaGyo, also found at Vintage Fair.
Come check out Malt @ Vintage Fair you guyssssssss! Opens in less than 1 hour SLT.
Holy balls, I need that. It’s been awhile since I’ve been SL blog surfing and knew something I just had to have!
BTW, I’ve been meaning to mention – your post on the SL10B snapshot contest got me involved awhile back, and I actually came in second place 🙂 I’m trying to turn my prize (two months free homestead) into finally building a little photography sim and animation store. So…thanks! I’ll remember when the shop is up and running to drop you a copy of everything 😀
