New year, new spring

I officially cancelled winter in my SL. I need sunshine, green trees, sunny streets. And that’s not impossible to find in a world where others love that as much as I do.

I want to show you a lot of things that are new or not that new, but are gorgeous and work great together.

First, I wanted to blog these Miamai shoes that were released for Shoetopia. I know that event ended a while ago, but I bought a lot of stuff that I didn’t get a chance to wear or blog so far. The shoes are add-on for SLink medium feet and will not work for the avatar feet. But hey, I am a fan of SLink add-ons and I know I’m not the only one.

And then Cae released this lovely jewelry set for Fameshed. It includes two types of necklace, bracelets, earrings and rings, that can be bought together or separately, and you get a hud to change metal and stone colors.

Also, I’ve been wearing this beautiful skin by PXL since last year :D It is the latest group gift and I think it is still available for VIP members.

Another item that I love is the Calico hair on Moniq. It is a current hunt prize and has lots of options to customize it as you wish. While it’s more like RP hairstyle (the prize includes a headpiece too), I decided it gives a cool touch to the outfit.

When love comes to town

I’m talking about love for shoes, obviously. LaRoo released these amazing stilettos and I’m wearing them for days now! Ok, one of the reasons is that I had no time to blog them, but still, I don’t want to take them off!

And because who knows when I can blog again, I made two looks for this post, with some new releases, some gifts and… guess what shoes I am wearing?

Also, LaRoo has a photo contest to celebrate one year on the grid, so scroll down for details on how to enter!

Shoes heaven

Give a girl the right pair of shoes… and these days I found out why (most) women can’t conquer the world. There’s no such thing as the right pair of shoes. There’s the right pairs of shoes or, more precisely, there’s the right ALL the shoes!

As you probably guessed, I finally managed to get into Shoetopia. I’d definitely set my home there and navigate all day through the shoe shelves. I have yet to make most of my purchases, because there were so many beauties there and choosing only several pairs is never easy. But there’s still time to decide :)

Today I’m going to show you two pairs of shoes available at the event, one by Alice Project (SLink feed add-ons) and one by LaRoo (with easy matching hud).

Plus other releases by some of my favorite brands – and one thing I want to mention is this new hairstyle by Exile that is almost similar to my new RL haircut (hell yeah, I did it :D).

Back with a bang!

Almost.

Logging on WordPress afer a long, long time (yeah, my latest notifications are 38 days old) is, sort of, like coming back home.

It’s been some good 38 days, filled with work, family meetings, love, disturbing news, vacation, more work, shopping… just like any other 38 days recently.

Except for the shopping part. I stormed RL stores as if I was in SL and spent my real money just as recklessly. That, my friends, means I need to seriously get back to blogging or I’ll go banckrupt again :D

And this gets me to the point. I have two looks for you in this post, you probably know the items already, because most of them are not that new and have been blogged already, but hey, I’m here with a personal touch, so I hope you like these outfits.

Tell me where have you been last night?

Long time no blog! I am happy to say though that I had a good RL time. Anyway, I’m going to keep it short and show you some of the good things that piled up in my inventory while I was on vacation.
Also, I am pretty happy about these photos, so I hope you like them too.

Love Donna Flora

You probably know already about the fundraiser for Donna Flora creator, Squinternet Larnia. She is an amazing designer and an amazing woman. Just read what other bloggers and designers wrote about her on the Love Donna Flora blog.

While my RL is hectic and all my blogging plans were turned upside down lately, I couldn’t miss this event. There are amazing designers, new designers, established designers donating all or a portion of their sales at the event for Squinternet Larnia, to help her in her fight with cancer. And in the photo below, I am going to show you some of them.

Wearing my socks like a boss

Long time no see :) And since Moniq is wearing these shoes for almost a week, it’s about time that I blog them too, right?

The shoes with knee-high socks are LaRoo’s item for FaMESHed. They come in several colors and there’s a HUD to change the sock color.

The lovely top is by The Secret Store and is available at Collabor88. The skin was a FLF special by The Plastik, and, though RL called me throughout the weekend and I couldn’t blog it in time, I really wanted to show it to you because it’s so beautiful.

I guess I miss travelling. With my job change and the new schedule, I was home bound for the last couple of months. I am planning a short trip soon, but meanwhile, I took my avatar to the Inaka train station with some suitcases. She can teleport anywhere, after all.

What you need to notice about her look: the lovely dress by ColdLogic, part of a bunch of new releases – tops, shorts, dresses, all designed for a warm, but comfy summer.

The Exile hair: it’s a big updo, elaborate but not too festive, so you can wear it with a day to day outfit too. It’s available at My Attic for a special price, so run there before the event ends.

The Belgravia shoes. These are add-ons for SLink feet and are part of a new market that’s taking SL by storm. I for one, love the add-on trend, since I am a proud owner of SLink feet. And I wish more shoe-gods who have amazing feet release kits for designers, so we can have pretty add-ons for them too!

Midsummer

Ok, I’m a bit ahead of the times with that headline, but I kind of wish it was midsummer. I hope that by that time I am all settled with my new job, my new schedule and everything.

Meanwhile, I am neglecting my Second Life, so my avatar spends days and days wearing the same outfit. Take this look: I put the skin (YS&YS group gift), hair (latest release by Exile), necklace (Pure Poison) and shoes (Arcade goodie) on Moniq almost one week ago, then changed the dress after the ColdLogic release, some time this week, and I finally got to take a photo and edit it a couple of hours ago.

I’m sure you have already seen these items for days on all the feeds. But I hope you will see my outfit as a new take on them and like it. I, for one, liked it enough to keep everything on, although the SL fashion scene is the illustration of the RL consumption-based economy on fast-forward. But sometimes it’s just good to take a deep breath and rest a bit :)

And before we go to the credits, there’s something I need to mention. Status Poses rebranded to Pretense and came back inworld with a new mainstore. I know that poses are sometimes forgotten or only get a mention here and there, while we brag about our outfits or skins or hair. But imagine a SL photo without a pose. Can you? No? I thought so!

My sunny days

Just a quick look today, because I’m too busy for long stories. So here’s the point: DCNY has these amazing top & skirt combos at Zodiac, ColdLogic released swimwear that’s a must have and Izzie’s has a gorgeous skin at the Dressing Room Blue. And, of course, the latest releases of Exile hair, totally worth trying on.

Last, but not least”: Je Suis moved to a new location and has a 50% off sale for a limited time. There must be something at the store that you wanted to buy or gift, but didn’t have the chance to. Not it’s the time to do it!
