Awake

The way the ground felt under her paws was still new for her and  the fact that she didn't hear her own movements also was. But it was what Elonie had wanted. Sometimes the scars still bleeded so she had wrapped cloth around her legs. The Pain she didn't mind at all. It kept her awake. The scars on her arms had the same function. When she was on watcher duty it was what gave her the right amount of adrenalin so that she was ready to fight. 
But this night seemed to be calm. Her urpy would warn her anyways if something would happen near her but this wasn't a reason for her to lack of caution, Elonie loved the little pet but she didn't want to depend on it.

Wasabi Pills takes part in the current round of fameshed. Their item is a cute haircut with a ponytail. The hair is very versatile and goes with modern outfits as well as with classic ones. The Cover My Furry Butt Hunt will end in two days. Enough time to get the wonderful Urpy for the neck from Booshies. It is a very cute pet and will most likely be very helpful in winter.
Pesca has meshtops with a floral pattern in the current round of the Zombie Popcorn brand. They are available in 4 colours and of course the pack contains them in the standard sizes.
It is rare to find very short cute skirts. This one from evolve is one of those. It is available in many colours. It is great for a punkish or cute look or for both.
Hysteria is a great store when it comes to unique and normal scars. Their current groupgift is called Suffer well and looks like leather bands being pulled through the skin on the upper arms. But they also got normal scars and bruises like the ones on the legs and the marks in the face are one of my favourite items from them.
Mirror's Enigma moved and they also released a new skin named Ira. It is available in three skintones and all of them with different makeups. The one on the picture is the version in Light and neutral. The very cute shape is made especially for this skin.
The weapons created by Messser & Co. are not only great when it comes to fighting they also look good. Like the throwing knives on the picture. They can be used in areas with CCS or Lindendamage.
The legwarmers from epic are also available in a version without paws and great for any urban being with digilegs.
Virtual/Insanity has so many cute accessories that it is hard to choose what to wear from them. One of their latest releases are the naboo claws. Those very long fingernails come also with a ring. They are great for roleplay characters and should fit to any gothic style.
The poses used for the pictures belong to the "the time is now" set from Miamai poses.

Shopping helper

It was not easy to be the adoptive daughter of one of the lords of hell. Anubia had asked her father several times why he hadn't killed her or something like that when finding her but somehow she must have been a very cute baby so he had decided to raise her as his daughter. Maybe he also only wanted to have somebody close who would not plan to kill him at the end. Of course Anubia sometimes thought about killing him but it would be a bit difficult to get somebody down who was ten times bigger than her and also resistant to most poisons. As cruel as he was to other demons as fatherlike was his behaviour when it came to Anubia. He had sent her to some exclusive schools where she was supposed to learn to behave like a Lady. She turned out like a Lady who was used to deal with deviant creatures and was not offended when seeing somebody eat other beings. But all in all she did quite well. And she loved to shop. If anybody would have heard about her he would most likely have supposed that she would wear typical black dresses with many frills but Anubia loved modern clothing. Her father had offered her slaves to make her clothes but that wasn't what she wanted. She wanted to buy clothes like a normal human. Her father was of course always worried when she went shopping so he started to send some of his servants with her. It was entertaining at least for the servants, Anubia normaly ended totally embarrassed and well the stores looked very different after she and the servants left. Luckily money wasn't a problem so she was still always welcome. But even her father had to admit that it might be better not to send demons with her who had nothing else in mind than making stores look like their normal home and that they hung the shopassistants on the ceiling was also not a behaviour he could call wellmannered. So he started to send a hellhound shopping with her. It went more or less well. He only stared in an inappropriate way on some women and when she told him to stop he stared at men instead. Unfortunatly he started then to be interested in the things she bought and demanded to get clothing as well. Anubia decided that it was best to leave quickly again. The next time she would ask her father to send a succubus shopping with her. This wouldn't be a good decision as well. But after the succubus was done with the storeowner he granted Anubia a big discount at least.

The current round of the Zombiepopcorn event will only go for a few more days so its time to jump there and to buy the cute items which are being sold there. For example the Dominique mesh hair from Wasabi Pills. Its rigged and comes in two versions. The one on the picture is the version with the pony covering the forehead. The sweater from pesca is available in several versions. This one is the black one. It can be worn with a sculpted bottom but there is also a version included to be worn without that sculpt. The meshclutch bag comes from Tea Time. The set includes it in three versions, one without a pose and two with a pose. Aura released those mesh pants some weeks ago. They are sold in several colours and each of those packs contains them in several sizes and in a version for heels and one for flats. The textures are elegant and sophisticated. The wolf avatar comes from 1st act of course.

For the love of wool & leather

I'm in love with new releases at Love especially the cowlneck scarves. I a penchant for scarves it has to be said and I especially appreciate the range of print textures on these scarves, sometimes we need a nice pattern to jazz up a plain outfit not just a choice of colours rather than a plain scarf with colour options. The leather skirt is also a new release which I had fun mixing up with the wool tights & Jumper.

The Classic Ugg boots are also a new release from Skifija. As usual with Skifija footwear they come a colour change hud and so your Ugg boots will colour match any outfit that you wear. Unfortunately Goran (the mastermind behind Skifija) has discovered recently that some of his items have been copybotted and sold on the Marketplace. It's tricky to know whether your items are legitimate when you buy them from the marketplace and so I know in future that I shall go straight to store instead!

To catch a snowflake

Should the approach of winter be bleak? no! it should be full of wonderful vibrant winter colours! and I love nothing more than fabulous shades of purple and pink! and that's one reason that I was drawn to these amazing boots from Kristica created as a special limited offer for XYROOM (events run for 3 weeks before rotation)

This divine unisex hair is a current group gift at Dura and the scarf is also a group gift at SMS which comes in 2 colours with and without the brooch option. Gotta love this jumper which is a luckyboard item at Bonne Chance, there's also a mens version in green on the boards.

Now I hate to blog items that are no longer available and it annoys me when I see other blog posts that do as it always seems to be that I only want the item that is not available! however sometimes you put a look together and it's only when you go in store to make a slurl that you realise this error. The great news is in the case there are similar alternatives available. The trousers were a halloween gift at Pesca which are no longer available, however there are some very similar ones in different shades if you like the style. Likewise with the skin (former Zombie popcorn hunt item) but if you want a great freebie gift skin, and you do follow the slurl below the eagle eyed amongst you may still be able to catch the recent zombie popcorn hunt item which although has finished now is still in store.

ADiva

Things you might want to grab fast! and here they are - I should first mention the hair since sadly there's a closing sale at AMG all hairs have been reduced to 99L so I grabbed a few of my favourites before they vanished forever.

 Next is the latest subscribo gift from ADiva and what a generous gift too! you get this pretty little dress with matching accessories i.e necklace & earring (which you can't see in this image) & then a lovely matching bag which all ties in perfectly with these sandals which I adore on the luckyboard at Pesca.

The skin is a lovely pale one from ......  . I must admit i'm quite partial to a pale skin and I find that this one is a realistic natural tone which I'm sure is hard to achieve , because the skin is quite natural  & plain it's makes wearing make up fantastic - a blank canvas if you like which is perfect seeing as the skin comes with a range of vibrant eye shadows one of which i'm wearing in my picture.

Twinkle night bargains

I've barely been in SL this week after a manic home life - still got the builders in causing havoc, I think I have noticed a few items of underwear missing too! and I won't have much left at this rate & i've been looking after 2 teeny tiny apple head babies which has perked me up no end.

Anyway when I have been in SL I have been paid a fair few compliments on this ensemble so it was imperative that I blog it. I've picked up some amazing bargains at the twinkle night bazaar ok yeah I did just about buy everything there! but everyone loves the hair! and 75L for 3 different styles surely that can't be right can it? oh yes it is go grab em quick sez I

Oh Oh and talking of bargains , well Bare sensual is quick becoming my favourite bargain skin store, I've blogged 2 from there now and have lots more to share too, there's also a really nice drow skin out at the moment which is quite a pale grey with lovely pink make up it's much more interesting than most drow skins i've seen.

Gold & Green

Well I just went for a short shopping trip and look what happens to my transport while i'm away! now if anyone happens to find my horse & cart be sure to let me know won't you.

I've been wanting to wear this delight of a top that I won on a luckyboard at Pesca for quite some time, but couldn't decide if I should take advantage of the resize script and wear it as a dress or a top. That was only until I received these amazing chinos as a group gift at Wave, then I knew in an instant what to wear them with. Incidentally I think these chinos make a great unisex item.

You may well struggle to find a group joiner for Wave, so I suggest you join from the designer Miraiwave Iwish profile (see listed groups) then check notices.

If you look sharp you'll also be able to pick up these shoes from Vero Modero (actually i'm not wearing the group gift ones they are a slightly darker shade)  & the bag from  Le Poppycock which are group gifts for May

So far I'm loving this mix & match hunt and there have been a huge amount of compliments on the items that i have been wearing, so you see the quality speaks for itself! I've certainly discovered a few new favourite designers to add to my list. I've bought a few things i've liked along the way , oh er and bought a few that I didn't really intend to also, so do have your wits about you when clicking on those hunt items that are displayed on the vendors, and happy shopping!

A short story

Shorts shorts shorts! I've blogged a few pairs of shorts recently, and I'm a shorts kind of girl. I love how they can be causal or smart, and the varying degree of lengths, from capri style pants to hotpants, bit today i'm wearing a classic pair of denim shorts which are new from Vero Modero, they come with the belt so you can dress them up or dress them down, and you know how I love items that can be worn in  a variety of styles.

Oh Oh and I wanted to say how I 'm glad I rediscovered Sole Sisters and dollarbie options. If you don't already know Sole Sisters have all the white shoes/boots at L$1, which I think is a quirky and clever marketing ploy, so of course I was thrilled to pick up this cute little shoes ..oh and a few other pairs too.

Saturday freebies

I often use maid outfits in roleplay as my roleplay character helps in a store and thinks that she needs kind of an uniform for this (and because it makes me giggle). So i always like it a lot when finding a free maid dress somewhere. This one is a 2o minutes camping item from likka house. It comes with many prim parts which have a resize script. Under the skirt the avatar wear white long undies with prim legs. The dress is striped and the frills always look prefect.

Dress: LIKKA*HOUSE AliceDress-stripe- (0$ 20 mins camping)

This praise ferrets and beavers tops are from 22769. I like ferrets as well as beavers, although i secretly like ferrets a bit better so i thought those two free skirts would be a good reason to show off those shirts again. The long skirt will be on the pesca lucky board until tomorrow. The short one is the groupgift from couverture.

In which I grab my purse and head to the shops

It's not often you can say that when you pick up your purse that it has more in it than the last time you looked! but that happened to me today and I think it was the work of pixies, I love pixies! ;P If you want a purse like mine (contents excluded) go grab this group gift at autre. Whilst you're out pick up this shirt on the lucky board at !1mm. There are 2 different coloured versions at the both stores and come with a tie, however I detached it and added a scarf instead. I picked up this pink version at the main store.
