While I was roaming around the Koenji sim looking for transferable male clothing (so difficult to find - anyone have any good places with transferable male clothing?!), I came across a little shop called UnTone. This place was visually appealing, and definitely caught my eye. I went in, and was pleased with the products I seen.

I picked up the Hana Belt in both black and white, and the matching Hana bracelets for both belts.I think these are so cute. I do think the prim work on the flowers look great - They actually look like flowers! Almost like opened lotus blossoms, which happens to be my favorite flower. I am particularly fond of the chain and the little flexi ribbons. All in all, a very girlie, adorable belt with super-cute matching bracelets. Oh, and a note on the bracelets, they are not the same on each arm. Yay~ these gives a little more variety with my sets.

What: Hana Belt in both Black and White $130L Each, and Hana Bracelets $120L Each set

I was tagged by Whimsy! I've been secretly stalking the blogs, enjoying reading things about the people behind the avatars. Now... on to the hard part. I always have trouble with these because I can never think of anything interesting to say about myself. But, here I go.

Rules:

1. You have to post (on your own blog) 8 random facts about yourself.
2. You have to tag 8 more people to post, so post their names at the end of your blog post.
3. Be sure to leave a comment in your taggee’s blogs so they know they’re tagged.
4. Be sure to post these rules in your own post so your victims know what to do.

My Randomness:

1. I have never seen real snow. Or fake snow, for that matter. I live in a part of California that never gets any snow, and its an all day trip to go up to the mountains.
2. I was once in a movie. Ok, so its not the type of movie everyone has seen, but instead its a movie where I played an out of control teenager. It is shown by a children's home to parents who want to learn how to better manage their kids. Or, thats at least how I understood it.
3. I have never broken a bone, but I do get sick often. Seems every virus that goes around, I manage to catch it twice before it dies down. *Sigh*
4. I dislike the smell of gum, mints, and other candies. I have a sensitive nose, and can smell these things from a distance, which makes it worse. Oddly though, I do have a strange enjoyment for the smell of white out. O_o
5. Aside from a yearly visit to Reno, I've never been outside of California. I go to Reno once a year for a car show in August, but have never been farther than that.
6. I am very shy. I am always quiet in a room filled with people, and will never approach someone to talk to them. However - once I get to talking with someone and get to know them, I never shut up. O_o
   
7. I am incredibly clumsy. Even in a room with seemingly nothing to bump into, or trip over, I will always find something. Usually, it is my own feet.
8. I am very determined with some things. If I want to do something or get something, I will not stop until I finish or get it. This usually happens when I see something I want, I will drive all over town going to every store I can think of to find it (this is also true for SL).

So, yeah... now you know more than you probably ever wanted to know about me. I think everyone has already done this... except for one person! He's going to hate me, but I tag my partner, Bats Mertel - now is the time to put something on that blog of yours :P

OMG. Siyu Suen, you are awesome. Please don't stop making these awesome coats! When I read the blog entry about these coats, I said to my partner "I MUST have these!" I stopped what I was doing, teleported there, and forced him to come along with me. I originally went there to pick up the Merry Jingly set, but seemed to have picked up what I went for, the Snowflake Coat, and the adorable Holly Jewelry.

The Merry Jingly set has the Christmas-y feel to it, and its totally cute. While I can't really see myself wearing this so early in December, I will, without a doubt, be wearing this later on in December. I decided to grab the Snowflake version as well while I was there, and I'm very glad I did.


I love the sculpties on these, as with everything else I've ever purchased from Illusions. And - the most exciting thing I seen when I put the hat on, it doesn't take off my lashes, nor my face light! *bounces off walls* I dislike having to reattach things to a different point on my face - so having something work with no repositioning was an amazing feeling. :P However - the coat tails were a different story. I did have some editing to do. I had to shrink my butt to make it fit just right, but it was worth it.

OMG, the Holly Jewelry. Very festive, and looks amazing with the coat. They are super cute, and comes with a necklace and earrings.

Yeah, ok. These don't look the best on my shape, but I hate changing my shape to anything else. But - I had to blog these skins. They are from the awesomeness that is called Another Shop. I've been hearing a lot about these skins, and I even picked up the demos and freebies in the store. However - I never really tried them on. But, when I heard that Another Shop was now offering tons of skins for only $100L! I logged into SL as soon as I could and TP'ed there right away.

I parted with my $100L and went straight home and tried them on. I am truly amazed at how amazing these skins are for the price. You get 8 different makeups in this package with several different options with them (different colored eyebrows, 2 styles of eyebrows and freckle options). I pictured two of my favorites from the 8. And remember: my pictures definitely do not do them justice. They look absolutely amazing. I think the rosy cheeks on these are totally cute. The makeup on the left is Gluttony and one the right is Envy.


The rest of the body. These seem like hand painted skins, and I love the incredible detail that is on them. The shading and highlights are amazing, and definitely a lot of time went into these. These have, without doubt, the best boob shading I've seen on a hand painted skin. Why the creator only charges $100L for all these skins, I will never understand.

What: Le - $100L

Now is the time to get all those awesome things you've ever wanted from artilleri, because they are having a 50% off sale in celebration of their 2 year anniversary! I picked up tons of stuff, shown in the pictures are my some of my favorites. Above is the Kats Coat - I've been drooling over these for what seems like forever, and now I finally own some. At only $100L each, its easy to pick up quite a few of them!


I also picked up some bikinis. Yes, I know, its almost December. But, hey, it's always summer in SL! I absolutely love the little ruffles on the middle picture. They look so darn cute and girly. ^_^

The sale ends on Friday, so you must hurry to get what you want before its over! Happy shopping

I've had these for some time but was too lazy to take pictures of them. So - here they are, League's Grunge Festival Jeans. What I like most about this pair of jeans is that it makes my butt look kinda cute. I also really like the rips - they are very well done and make them look like a well used pair of jeans. And - these come with sculptie leg attachments, to give it more of a realistic feel. If you don't like prim leg attachments, you can wear them without as well.

Weird thing though - when I bought them they were called "Grunge Festival Jeans" but now, it seems like they are called "Woodstock Jeans". For only $145L, these jeans are an awesome deal though ^_^

Oh. My. Goodness. This was one of those items I knew I had to have at any cost. Made by Siyu Suen from Illusions, this Coque Feather Coat is truly a beautiful piece of art. Its gorgeous, and I was hunting for something exactly like this a few days ago. It was love at first sight for me with this coat, I'm never going to take it off, I know it. Its got an amazing flexi fur collar and cuffs, and even includes a low-prim version of the collar. You can either wear this as a really long coat, or short, which is nice, because sometimes my mood varies on what kind of coat I want to wear.

The tails took a bit of editing to fit my shape - they were a tad bit big, but I think I got a reasonably good fit. Sometimes these type of coats are difficult to fit me - but this one was surprisingly easy. Which would also be good when editing to fit a male shape - because this comes with a no-bewb-shaded version for them men out there.

To sum it up: I freaking love this coat. I think this was well worth every linden I spent on it. I wonder if a white version will be coming soon? This is absolutely amazing, and I would be in total clothing bliss if a white one was available. Siyu Suen - you did a fantastic job, I can't wait to see more clothing items from you!
