Did you read the latest blog post about new improvements and fees? I’m super excited about Animesh! I can’t wait to have clothing and curtains that sways gently. As usual, there is some uproar about the fee for processing credit increasing from 1.5% to 2.5%, but that’s just the cost of doing business. Linden Lab could easily charge for a “business license” of $1,000USD a year and people would pay it, as long as they’re able to profit from their SL businesses.

In the decade that I’ve been in SL, I have not seen a single brand quit over ‘fees’ – but some do make a bunch of noise, and quit when they stop making a profit. My favorite brands aren’t going anywhere, as long as we keep supporting them with our lindens!

Speaking of favorite brands, What Next is easily one of my favorite home decor brands at the moment. The Colonna Hot Chocolate Station from What Next is giving my home such cozy autumn feels. I’m looking for a new bedroom set, if you guys have any suggestions, let me know in the comments!

What I’m Wearing:

Exile – Autumn Breeze
Teefy – Gwen Loose Shirt (Classic), Lexie Tank (White)
Teefy – Ada Skirt (Chocolate)
Ingenue – Olivia Heels – Auburn

My New Kitchen

My New Kitchen

I have done nothing but shop, decorate, shop, decorate! I love my new Catia Kitchen set from Consignment. I have used decor from various brands for years to make a vintage kitchen, but I felt the need for change. This new set is modular, and very easy to assemble to fit any kitchen. I don’t like to change my decor often, but this change is definitely much-needed, since it also pushed me to update my living room and other corners of my home.

My New Kitchen

A new kitchen set calls for new food!! Isn’t this set of brunch food from Dust Bunny fantastic? It’s a gacha, but it was actually fairly easy to complete the set since it’s a small set.

My New Kitchen

Autumn is here! It’s cold outside, so I am loving all the sweaters and beanies in SL. I love this Amitomo dress at Sanarae, it’s a gacha, but I won’t complain since I won the dress after a handful of tries. Exile released perfect autumn hairstyles at Collabor88 this month! I am wearing Full Circle, it comes with a color-changing HUD for the cap.

What I’m Wearing:

Exile – Full Circle
Amitomo – My Story Gacha (Dress)
Ingenue – Nina Heels (Oxblood)

Decor:

Consignment – Catia Kitchen (White)
Dust Bunny – Brunch Foods gacha

New Truth Hair colors! I like that natural hair colors are now joined into a single pack, so you get both the light and dark colors. I’m a fan of the new Selection pack too, which has a bit of both natural hair colors and rainbow colors. It’s great to see brands constantly improving their products, so that customers can get the best deals.

New Truth Hair Color Packs – Blonde, Brunette, Redhead, Grayscale, Candy, Jewel, Multitone 1, Multitone 2, Selection

Old Truth Hair Color Packs – Light Blondes, Blondes, Light Browns, Browns, Gingers, Reds, Black&Whites, Pastels, Colours, Variety

I am wearing the newest Scout hairstyle from Truth. I noticed that the newer hairstyles now include a Hair Stylist HUD to change the different options. It wasn’t difficult to change the hairstyles before, but I really appreciate this new addition, cos now I don’t have to change the hairstyle and recolor it. It’s also fun to swap between the options quickly and see their differences.

I’m sitting on the new Palisades Bar & Accessories from What Next. I love home decor with food & drinks included! I like juicy fruits the best; nothing says tropical summer goodness like lemons and limes.

Tres Blah – Summer Fete Dress @ The Arcade
