Super Kawaii!

Albero is having a hunt! Yes, *that* Albero, the one with all the amazing stores! There are so many zomg adorable awesome gifts that I really couldn't take pictures of them all (well, I COULD but I'm kind of tired and lazy) but here are some of them!

The hunt is frankly not easy but if I can do it anyone can, considering how much I royally suck at hunts. You have to wear the hud AT ALL TIMES during the hunt, follow clues to each tiny stump and click it, and that the end you can go from store to store and claim all your fabulous gifts. If that confused you don't worry, there are instructions and such at the landing point!

The hunt begins HERE!!
Worn and Used From the Hunt:
Sweater: Fir & MNA
Necklace: Deco
Skin: Les Petits Details
Dress: Tiny Bird
Desk: Cheeky Pea
Sofa and Wall Decor: Cleo Designs
Shoes: Duh!
Owl Patch: Croire
Standing Pose, Olive Juice
Also Worn:
Hair: Lamb
Eyes: Banana Banshee
Pink Skirt: Sn@tch

Bag Lady

Duh! creator Renee Harvy is such a doll. I scooped her tres fabby gold crocodile tote bag in the Starlust Panty Raid right before it ended (but really wanted to show y'all this gorgeous gift) so Renee has graciously agreed to set out this elegant tote for free in her store. Sometimes it really is all about the accessories! *mwuahs Renee Harvy*
I'm also showing a free skin gift by Mynerva in the Think P!nk hunt (I really like the freckle faces from this brand, especially in the most recent releases). Some non-free new pretties by Shampoo + a gamine Eha hair completed this fall-ready look.

I wonder if this post is my not-so-subconscious way of easing guilt over recent (RL) purse shoppings. Ehhh, life goes on.

Bag lady love + fashionista kisses to all!

Dear Internet, Move Faster Please. Or Else.

My internet has been moving at the speed of superzomgslow for a while now, no idea why. So maybe some fun, bright colors will make me less inclined to start hunting fire foxes :P

This hair from Adam N Eve comes in a few colors but I wore blue because, hey, I was already wearing yellow and pink so why not? The skin is one of only about forty-seven trillion or so skins you can win at Sowelu! The hoodie comes with male and female prim options so yay for that! Intrigue Co. is generally pretty great about making things unisex and/or available for both sexes. The boots are one of a few prizes available from Duh! in the lucky chair (and check for hunt gifts and mass amounts of cheapies too!)

Worn:
Hoodie: Intrigue Co., MM prize
Skin: Sowelu, lucky board prize (I think. It might have been a group gift or 1L item though)
Hair: Adam N Eve, group gift in notices
Boots: Duh!, lucky chair prize
Denim Shorts: Lo*MoMo, 1L (I know you can't really see them but they're cute and basic)
Eyes: JM:Mai, lucky board prize

Fun With Neon and Booty- NSFW

OK if you can't see booty at work or home or whatever please scroll past! LOL! Anyway, I love bright colors and I was wearing this outfit the other day, realized many of the items were freebies and decided to blog it. Some of them are older, some newer, but all fun!

Then my friend Sanura made this freebie tattoo which made me lol because...well...A** QUAKE!

Feel the neon love.
Worn:
Shorts: Theory., free (also comes with jogging poses!)
Shoes: Duh!, free
Skin: Nuuna's, free
Tattoo: Dreams, free
Poses: Torridwear, not free
Tank and Hair: Schadenfreude, not free (hair no longer available is this color I believe)
Socks: Sock Shop, 30L
Bracelet: DooDads, not free
Shape: Shape It Up!, will be free starting the 7th

Yes . . . Pink

I decided to dehermit myself for both a good and a bad thing today.

Lets get rid of the bad first shall we.

I'm wearing . . .

PINK!

If anyone IM's me about it, I'll probably rip your head off, and in the theme of today, that wouldn't be a very good thing, so just leave it be okay guys, yes, I know it's going on, I can see my avi and I grimace.

That being said there is a very good reason this anti-pink wearing Canadian sl designer is wearing pink today.

To make a long story short, 3 years ago in a Canadian school, a male student got bullied for wearing a pink shirt on his first day of high school. I'm sure you can guess what sorts of things were being said about this male student. You can read some more about it here : http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2007/09/18/pink-tshirts-students.html

Over the past 3 years, across the country and globally, the day is now sort s celebratory stand, against bullies, and what it means to be bullied. This mostly accomplished by peer support.

Now it might have started in a high school, with teenage students, but the issue of bullying goes across many age groups.

A group of designers took it upon themselves to bring the awareness here, in sl. I'm sure you have heard some sort of story, or had something happen to you yourself. So join the "Sea of Pink" today, even if it might not be your fav colour and you'd rather have acid dumped in your eyes.

Now that being all said, here is some goodies to start you on your way to powderpuff poodle pinkness. Okay no not really, I couldn't stand the barbie pink this year, so I went with a few alternatives.


Outfit-Yesss-XStreet only Deal

Found this outfit by Yesss. It actually comes with *5* different pink shirts, and the pants are included in the package.


Footwear-Duh!-L$0

I slipped on footwear from Duh!. This is Renee's offering for Pink Shirt Day. There is an awesome set of footwear for the men in the store for today's events as well, so they aren't to be left out.


Skin-Bare Skins-L$0
Hair-Pazazz-L$0
Eyes-Jala-L$1

One of my store models, LadyLight Koolhoven, said I couldn't do a post without showing this hair, so we went and grabbed some other stuff for her to show, since I couldn't wear that hair myself. We found some pink eyes, and got a notice for s skin made for today, so went and nabbed that too!


Dress-Snatch-L$0
Ring-Babylon-L$0

She is also wearing this outfit from Snatch, and a little random ring she found one day for free. Pink totally suits her more.


Both outfits from Yesss-L$0

Yesss wasn't done with the pink goodies, they had 2 more in the store for you to pick up.


Slip Dress-Angel Bunny-L$10 Special

I saw this, it said pink, so it must be pink right? Close enough in my books. And hey, you can show everyone some of your arse.


Flipflops-AKATSUKI-L$0

I wore it with these flip flops, and then sort of was like, hmmmm, looks like I'm getting ready for bed. Is the pink over yet?


Lingerie-Seldom Blue-L$1 Special Offering

Lastly I bring you the new offering from Seldom Blue. Now this I can deal with, tho I really don't have the slightest clue where I would go out in this.

I kissed a Mango and I liked it!

HEEEEEEY YOUUUUUUUUUU GUUUUUUUUYS!

*Waves*

Ya it's me, I'm back(sort of). I've been super sick the last 4 months, and am starting to try to get back into a more normal routine again. My first post of the year was going to be a man post, but I couldn't resist these Mango, Mango Skins. I don't normally do posts on openings, group gifts, and whatnot, cause the blogs are so saturated with them. But I could not RESIST these skins. Honest. I was rolling around on the floor in them like they were the demon version of catnip.

You'll see in the pic above, I'm wearing Mango, Mango's Skin Dollarbie made for the reopening of Aqua. And well it's Aqua! This made me very happy, cause after hearing about [42] closing down, I didn't know where I was going to get my basic everyday coloured skins. I mean I'm aqua like every other hour! Well maybe every other day. These horns from House of Ruin were perfect for this skin, you can nab them in the 7Seas fishing area on the Mountain at the Aurora Vale Sim . These eyes were only L$30 at the Valentines Bazaar, made by Little Pricks( a store name to really sink into eh?).

So Aqua skin, for Aqua opening. So what can you get from Aqua? Well like always they are very generous. You can nab this little black dress that makes even my small boobs look massive. I'm wearing pirate boots from Duh! to go with it.


Here I have on the other "coloured" skin from Mango, Mango, called Purple and Proud. It went perfect with the L$5 deal from Aqua, this little lavender boob wrapper(so not named that guys). Same Duh! boots, different Duh! colour.

Aqua happens to be in a few hunts, this lingerie is a gift from the Burning Hearts hunt. I paired it with Mango, Mango Sun Goddess skin, which is a steal at the Valentines Bazaar.


This dress is part of the Heat Wave hunt. I'm wearing Mango, Mango skin in Classic, which you can nab for L$150 for a wee bit longer.


Also at the Valentines Bazaar are these poses from On the Cover.


I just had to show you my fav Mango, Mango Skin, Lemonade in Pale. It's sooooo hard finding yellow makeup. Not gold, yellow!

Now for a bit of random news . . .

To all those remembering my "Under 30 Days" Posts, they will be started back up again soon. I have 4 months of catching up, finding moved store landmarks, sending out the vendors to those that sent in apps, and various other things. So more on that next week.

Favorite freebie challenge

Hai there!

Casia here, crawling out from the woodwork to say a HUGE, HUGE THANK YOU to the AMAZING designers who have been SO generous throughout 2009! It is SO hard to pick between the fabuloso gifts that we've been given but here is a mix of some of my faves!



BIG thank yous to Maitreya for the AMAZING free hair that they gave at Hair Fair, ATOMIC for the beautiful skin that was given in their lucky chair, Modd.G for the cutest little summer dress that was a Subleties of Summer hunt gift, and Duh! for these awesome clogs that weren't free but were damn close at only 20L a pair!

There are so many fantastic designers in SecondLife that really make the game worth playing! Thanks for making SL such a fashiontastic place to be! Happy New Year everyone!

<3, Cas

I gots some purties.

I had never been to Color me Chaos until I was gently nudged there by a buddy. I caught a ? on the lucky board for this fun Royal Jester ensemble which was awesome! It turns out the owner has been trying to nudge me to look at the store but my messages got capped. Sigh. That just goes to show you if you find something awesome you want me to see you have to basically hit me over the head with a mallet and drag me their or I might miss your suggestion :DOutift: Color Me Chaos, lucky board prize

So if you hadn't been by the big bad Duh! store yet, you wouldn't have known it reopened with a bigger badder location/build.

I was supose to let you know, but I suck!

Well here I am, about a month later, letting you know.



This you can get in the Lucky Chair at the store. You might just need a pair of pumpkin ankle boots right soon! lots of events to go and dress up for.



This baby is a hunt gift, for the Pumpkin Prints Hunt, Duh! is #106.



These are a few of the various items on the L$1 wall. Unisex boots and sneakers too! so dudes come on down!



Renee is a sweetie, and she made a necklace to match my first ever dress, in a colour to match my riot vendor version. This is L$1, and you'll find it to the left of the store.



The newest L$1 gifty? this lovely rose thingy on my BEWB. It is perfect for the season, if you want to be girly but in orange. I'm wearing the Snatch VIP group gift with it, a lovely Black Jazz inspired Bodysuit. This group is worth the fee to join, lots of hot news, hot contests and hot gifts!

The Nooblet Adventures-Duh!

Renee Harvy is one of my favvy designers, and also now a friend. I had the luck of finding her store one day, on a quest for shoes for my sister.

The thing about Duh! and why I was instantly attached to the store, is simply the items are high quality and low budget. I will forever love a good deal, designer or not. It comes from my RL, not this freebie culture that has started here in sl.

Renee takes sculpt kits, and mashes them all up, makes textures and turns her creations into something new. She does in fact make more then just shoes, but shoes are what we talk about today!

There is an "Under 30 Days" kit at Duh! and the greatest thing about it is the Unisex factor.



In the pack you get a white and a black version for each male and female. This is a good starter set for any new person, who is off exploring their new world.

Thankyou Renee Harvy!



Duh! is very active in hunts, and this is one of the samples from a hunt going on right now! It's from the Skipping Stones hunt, and you'll find it in the store, in a little stone somewhere. You get both a male and female.



These are a sample of the shoes you can actually purchase. They are one of my favorite styles, and come in a bunch of colours, which is also a wonderful factor, specially for people like me. They are called Slip-on Clogs.

Credits:

Picture 1-Under 30 Days Package Shoes
Picture 2-Skipping Stones Hunt Boots-L$0
Picture 3-Slip On Clogs in Blue with silver Buckles-L$20

You can get it all here at Duh!

Hot Little Things

I'm back!

This post was supose to go out before my vacation, but oh well, it's all still out there for you to nab up.

Someone had suggested to me to do a post on silks. Me in silks? Honestly. But I thought I'd give it a go, and even managed to find a punk silk! Score

Every month Haven Designs has a new lucky chair item. This months is something that I managed to fit in with my normal style.



Skin-{Frick}-Vengeance in Goth Tone-L$59
Outfit-Haven Designs-Fisher's Girl-Lucky Chair Gift
Boots-Duh!-Black Leather Work Boots-L$25
Bracelet-edge grafica-Spiked Bracelet-L$0

EYES!

*Faints*



Eyes-edge grafica-30 diseased Eyes pack-Showing 4 colours-L$0

Another punkish silk set, this one does not show your nips, but has some really awesome features.



Outfit-Silk&Satyr-Punked Out(does come in both male and female)-L$1

Just look at the little details on the kiltish part. I love that the lock is unlocked.



This skin is really not a new item, it's been out there for a while now, but it so went well with this set.



Skin-TRAP-Axel skin-L$1

I found this Gor freebie market, and ended up with more inventory then I barganed for, but shhhh, don't tell the lindens.



Outfit-Ripped-from the Free Market

Found this on Xstreet, tho I went to the inworld store to nab it. I love fire anything, so it was in my hands in next to no time.



Skin-GenNext Allure-The Fury special edition skin-L$1

I love this one. Not enough outfits out there for the classic Panther girl. You can tell this one can yes, kill, but also get those man slaves to massage and oil her every night. Can't beat that.



Outfit-Dysfunctional Dolly Designs-from the Free Market

I love Weird Designs. I've known the designer for a bit now, and she is super cool. She deals with all the things that normally plague designers: store rivalries, destructive customers and design copying issues. She still is here, and makes things she wants to make, and feels are lacking in sl, or just wants her special touch on it.



Skin-WEiRD.DESiGNS-Dead Silence-Sunburn&Freckles-L$1
Eyes-Hermetic Creations-from the Free Market

This thing had me in fits of giggles. It has basic car script in it, so you can sit and ride around. It is not animated, and it's super funny to watch me try to go up a cliff on it. I modded it a bit, it had a flag on it.

So go get some GRRRRR



This was another ridable critter. Now this one, it didn't want me riding it, you can see me way up in the air there, where it shot me up after ejecting me from it's seat. Guess I'm having bird for dinner!



You'll find a wack of stuff here: Gorean Freebie Market

All eyes not credited in other pics are from the same edge grafica pack credited in the post.

not as chatty and funny as my normal posts, but it was picture heavy. I have another ready to post, so I'll annoy the shit out of you on the next one, promise> XP

Want to see me look for something specific to make a post out of? I have already posted ducks, shoes, mermaid items, undead, blablabla, your wish is my searchable item. Give me a challenge!
