Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I decided to post here while I hide from the RL family. O_o So~ I came across these really beautiful eyes a few days ago, and thought I'd share them with you all. I am not a giant fan of realistic-like eyes, and it is surprisingly difficult to find really good, fantasy eyes. So, I went into Dreamin'g Alice when I heard about a Christmas freebie, and stopped in my tracks when I seen these eyes on the wall.

Real Glass Eyes

It seems to be more of a skin shop, than anything else, but the eyes are incredible. These are the "Real Glass Eyes" package, which includes 7 eye colors (red, violet, green, blue, brown, gray and black) for only $70L. Awesome price for these beautiful eyes.

Nights Eyes

While I was there - I also picked up these "Nights Eyes", which was on the wall next to the glass ones for only $20L! These have two colors - blue and violet. The pictures here don't do them very much justice, but believe me - they are amazing. They have little stars in them, that I am absolutely in love with. However - I really like bright blue shades of eyes - and these are not bright enough for my taste. I would love for the creator to make like, an electric blue shade of this eye.

What: Real Glass Eyes - $70L and Nights Eyes - $20L

tami-mccoy-hair

Ok. So, I think Tami McCoy's shop is my new favorite place to get hair. I purchased several hairs (though, they are a pain to fit - I attempted to fit a few, but the others ended in complete editing failure), but... they are just so darn cute! The ones pictured are Babycakes (left) and Cupcake (right), both in the Midnight shade. The Babycakes style came with a really cute ribbon to wrap around one of the buns, but I didn't put it on - none of the colors matched the look I was going for.

I really like the textures on these - the black looks very glossy and shiny, which I really like. I would really love to try out the blonde colors, because they look awesome as well, from what I have seen in the pictures. Perhaps the next Tami McCoy style I grab, I'll make sure to pick up a copy in blonde. But, these styles are very cute. They also look awesome with my neko ears, a definite must for my hair!

The prices ($250L for one shade) are a little higher than the average hair - but they are worth it. I'll definitely be visiting Hair Styles by Tami McCoy again! ^_^

What: Babycakes and Cupcake both in Midnight - $250L each

Simone! Is having a sale~ I was debating blogging about it, because I was quite disappointed with some of my purchases. Main reason being - some items pictured appeared to have full prim skirts, when in reality they were a prim skirt/system skirt mix. I hate any type of system skirt, so these were a major let down for me. Oh well. I did buy some interesting wedding gowns though.

Yes - I know what you might be saying - Wedding gowns?! Despite me being a punky neko, I do have a girlie side that likes to dress up in elaborate wedding dresses. My criteria for gowns is simple: first - its an absolute must that a dress completely covers my feet with heels on, second - detail. Despite how simple those things are - it is quite difficult to find good dresses like that in SL. From the three gowns I purchased at Simone, I will be back there - considering they meet my criteria ^_^

Anyway. These gowns are really beautiful, and very detailed. Since I'm already happily 'married' to my partner, Bats, I doubt I would wear these again. But - it was fun and worth the money to have a good dress up session. Which girl doesn't like to dress up?

This sale has several (actually, TONS) of Simone items for only $100L! Incredible deals on some of this stuff, like these gowns. I think I read that this sale will continue until the end of November.

Sweater

Ok, this is my favorite piece of clothing right now. I love, love, love this sweater. Even when it is stormy and cold here in RL, looking at this sweater makes me feel a little warmer. I absolutely love the prims that go on the hand - it looks so much more realistic than the average sweater. I wish more designers offered a hand prim option on their sweaters. I also love the loose sculpted sleeves - they look so comfortable.

I was a little skeptical on the price though - $190L for something I wasn't sure I would like... seemed a little steep for me. But - I'm glad I splurged and bought it, because this is truly worth it. This is just so adorable, I probably would have even spent more on it. O_o

What: WoolPulli in Black - $190L

Caliente-Express-sale

OMG, Caliente Express is having a giant $100L sale! Everything in the shop is only $100L! The creator is going off of SL for a while, and decided to have a sale for us! I picked up some awesome things while I went to check it out. I bought tons of stuff, but my favorite were these Tartaruga Sweaters - I picked up one in black, as well as light pink. I think I will go back and pick up a few more colors. I love these so much. I love clothing with clearly defined bewb and belly shading/highlighting... these are definitely perfect for me. ^_^

When the quad was closed, it was obvious something happened. A post now explains.

Ginny, you will be missed.


Color Me Couture - Hair

As soon as I tried on the review copies I was sent from Color Me Couture, I knew I had to blog them. Why? Because one of them were just so unlike any other hair I've seen in SL. I am talking about the one on the left, Elise. I have never seen a hairstyle like this that completely covers the avatar's eyes. Definitely creative. The texture on this hair is incredible, it has great highlights, shadows, and really rich red tones. Ah - and I can't forget that this hair has tons of my favorite thing: flexi.

The one on the right, Carolyna, is a bit more girly. While this one doesn't have any flexi, it is still very cute. I found this style of hair to go perfect with a sweater. ^_^ And again, the textures on this hair are really great.

What: Elise in Auburn and Carolyna in Brown, $99L each
