Manic Monday

So, I decided with everything that is going on with the Love Donna Flora event, that before I headed over there I would go straight to the source. If you have never been to the store you really should check it out, she has so many beautifully made items! I chose this necklace because I have been dying to blog this Lark skirt, and it seemed like such a perfect fit, I had to have it. I hope you enjoy! <3

Ruffle

I don't typically write reviews when I blog. I enjoy taking pictures of outfits and that is pretty much the only reason why I do it. However, this skin that Estella Magic introduced me to makes me WANT to write about it. It is from a store called .Birdy. and I was so drawn to them because they are not only beautiful but so different. It is hard to find something that is so well made in Second Life that every other avatar is not wearing. The interesting thing about these skins is they change drastically when you change shapes. This happens to be something I love because Estella and I were able to wear the same exact skin but because our shapes are so different we still looked unique. Another thing about this store that I just absolutely fell in love with is the fact that all tones of the skin appliers for both hands and feet for the Slink Mesh Hands are 1L in the store. That is such a huge savings when you think about how much most stores are charging for one skin tone for each applier!

With all that said, I really think you should check it out. This skin I am wearing is the free group gift, so all you have to lose is the 50L it costs to join the group. That is an extremely fair price, in my opinion.

Enjoy! :)

Happy 4th!!

Happy 4th of July everyone! I hope you had a lovely day filled with sunshine and barbecues :) If not, then I hope it was a pleasant day none-the-less. So, I decided to do a bit of a patriotic tribute to celebrate the USA's Independence Day. I hope you like it.

I happened to get these GOS shoes today (in Red, to match my theme) and I have to tell you, they are the most amazing things I have ever owned in Second Life thus far! It was one click and the skin was matched, no muss no fuss. I had a hard time justifying spending nearly 1k on a pair of shoes I probably wouldn't wear often, but the second I tried them on I stopped worrying about how much they cost. So, you might see Tishi wearing these for a few posts...I don't want to change them! hehe

Since I spent so much on the shoes, I decided to throw in a few freebies to complete the look. The facepaint was just too cute for me not to grab it for 1L. Once I got the look together, I had to add the sousaphone for good measure. It just looked adorable on her and reminded me of how Tishi would look if she was going to be in a 4th of July parade! Wouldn't a Second Life parade be fun? :)

Dotty

After a long shopping trip in Second Life (because Maitreya is having a HUGE 50-75 percent off sale right now!! Hurry!!) Tishi felt like kicking her feet up for some relaxation at the beach in her new Maharajah Tent by CHEZ MOI Furnishings.
