I love Alienbear Gupte's jewelry. She makes really amazing and stunning jewelry. A few times a year, she sets out a beautiful set of jewelry in her lucky chairs. This time: the Aputsiaq set, are for the months of December and January. After she releases the lucky chair sets, I spend tons of time wandering from chair to chair collecting them all. This time was no different. I collected the sets from the chairs, and before I left, I noticed a TON of people standing outside. I went to investigate, to find they were waiting for the MobVend's price to lower~ I've never been lucky enough to catch the MobVend people, so never got them. But this time, I hung around there, and when the price got to its lowest ($299L!) I hurried and purchased it.

In this amazing set from the MobVend was (from left to right), the silver set, gold set, and a special edition set made just for the MobVend. Only the MobVend sets contains the little "party crown" seen in the pictures. The silver set can be found in the lucky chairs on the Alienbear Jewelry side, while the gold is lucky chair prizes on the BijouxOr side.

It also seems that these will be the last lucky chair gifts. After January 31st, there will be no more of these. I respect Alienbear's decision, she's been so good to her customers and group members, she deserves a break. ^_^

The opening of the new Muse sim was yesterday! I was very excited because I love Muse's things, and I think they definitely deserved their own sim. So, I teleported there right when they opened for group members, and immediately started hunting for the sim-wide treasure hunt they had going. I was extremely lucky, and managed to find one of the tokens containing two of Muse's new releases!

First, the Margurite Peacock Feather Necklace/Earring set. Every time I see pieces like this, I am in awe of how she makes them. The pieces are so small, my eyes would be falling out of my head if I ever tried to create something with prims this tiny. This is a really pretty set, though I wonder if silver may be coming soon?


I love pearls. Before I started the hunt, I was thinking about buying it, but didn't know which color I wanted. So, I was totally beaming when I found this one~ These are very stunning, and the detail doesn't show in my picture - but its definitely there. These sets come with one with silver clasps, as well as one with gold clasps. ^_^

Also - Don't forget to visit the sim by Tuesday! Because until then, all her older items (except the new releases and the Chateline collection) are 50% off! O_O

What: Margaux Draped Pearl Necklace - $250L each, Marguerite Peacock Feather Earrings - $275L, Marguerite Peacock Feather Necklace - $350L.

Before the opening of Glam World, I've never owned a pair of boots. Now, it seems like I can't get enough of them. I had told myself that I wouldn't buy anything else until my inventory was safely in my Fashionista Closet, and I am able to find things when I wanted them. Well... that didn't work. I drooled over Shiny Things' newest creations, the Chunky Ribbon Boots, until I couldn't restrain myself anymore. The promise to my inventory to organize it? Broken.

When I first saw these in pictures... I thought: "No way do those really look like that!" Well... They really do. Fallingwater Cellardoor's use of sculpted prims is absolutely amazing, and these boots really show it. They come with 4 different sizes for the lower leg prim, which made it super-easy for a boot-newbie like me. It also comes with a HUD so you can choose from 6 lace colors. Very cool.

It was only after I bought them that I realized that I didn't have anything to wear with them. But - I'll gladly work my outfit around these ^_^

On a unrelated note - I changed the layout of the blog! Please let me know what you think about it, and if you notice any weird errors or weird things going on.

I love the holidays. Expecially going on ornament hunts for goodies! On Halloween, I participated in the Mary Jane Shoes pumpkin hunt (and failed miserably at it), so I was excited to hear she was offering an ornament hunt for the Christmas holidays~ yay~ I tried hunting the ornaments down in the shop, but my goodness, they are just so TINY! After a few hours of hunting... I found.... 5 of them. I think there are 12 total? O.o

Anyway, the ones I did find included some adorable sets of shoes. I love the ones on the far right - ribbons are my obsession, so I drool over anything with them. These are really cute shoes, and definitely worth taking a look around the shop for. I do plan on going back to find some more when I have time.

When I attended the opening of Glam World, I noticed a few skins in the lobby of the Minnu shop. I debated buying them, because they were a bit dark for my taste. I went home, thought about it, and decided to get one. However - I teleported there, only to find them gone. I found out that they were a limited edition to raise money for a charity event, only available during the opening. I was bummed out that I didn't pick one up while I was there. So, you can imagine my glee when I received a notice saying that due to popular demand, they are setting them out again until Wednesday! Yay!

As soon as the grid came back online, I logged in a b-lined to Glam World. I picked up Tribal 1 and Tribal 4. I couldn't decide which one I wanted. Knowing that these will go away after Wednesday, and never come back, I allowed myself to pick up two instead of just one. I went home and tried them on. I was right - they were a little dark for me, but thats okay. While I probably won't wear these every day, they will most likely have their occasions.


These do have the amazing features that I like from Minnu skins, so I don't really think I need to go into detail there. I do love the makeups on these, however odd that may seem. Again, it isn't something I would wear all the time - but I enjoy having them in my collection.

If you want to get these skins - you need to do so by Wednesday. After that, they will be gone.

My jewelry folder is getting surprisingly gigantic. It is the biggest folder in my inventory, and I swear - buying elaborate pieces is my addiction. I do have a few items from Second Mirage that I enjoy, so when she gave me a few review copies of her items, I really couldn't wait to try them on.

My favorite of the copies I received, is the Pamela set. You can choose from several different gem stones, though I only pictured my two favorites: diamond and sapphire. But all the others are really beautiful as well. These sets come with earrings as well as a necklace.


Also, for something a little different: the Kenichi set. While I rarely go for accessories with various shades of color, I find this to be one of my exceptions. What really stood out for me on this set - was the amazing amount of detail that can be found on it. From the textures, to the really tiny strings found on it. In my picture, you can't really see the detail, but I would suggest visiting the Second Mirage store to try on a demo.


Also, definitely check out the Advent Calendar that Second Mirage has up. Every day until Christmas, if you come into the shop, you can click on the ornament that corresponds with the current day, and you get a free piece of jewelry! I've been doing this, and have received some amazing gifts, as pictured above. Pictured: Adrienne, Karen, Khione and Tess. If you missed any of these items in the advent calendar, they are still available to purchace in the store.

What: Pamela in Diamond and Sapphire - $350L each set, Kenichi - $175L, Advent Calendar gifts - Free Daily, though still available afterwards for varying prices.

Wow. Ok, where do I begin? A few weeks ago, I wanted to purchase a Minnu skin. Unfortunately, the sim was closed, so I was forced to purchase it from one of their side shops. I quickly began to love the Minnu skin, so I have been eagerly waiting for the sim to open back up so I can do more shopping. As soon as 10am SLT hit, I was on the TP button right away. I got there, and OMG, lag was terrible! It literally took me 40 minutes to get to the skins room. People refused to rez for me too, so if I bumped into you, Sorry! But, I finally got there and gawked at all the goodness that was on the walls. I only seen the main things, because I got frustrated with lag, but I will without a doubt be back later on.

I purchased 2 skins, Earth in Pale skin tone, and Kevin in the Tan skin tone. I would have been in total heaven if the Kevin makeup was on the Pale tone, but its ok. The Kevin in tan is a bit dark for me, but I really like it. I love Minnu, so I'll make exceptions. OH! AND! The hair wore in all these pictures was completely free, and found in the hall near the shoes (you get all colors too!)! I love this hair, its definitely one of my favorites.


I also bought this adorable Sendal Dress from Maitreya, after walking through the lag for an additional 25 minutes (and a sim crossing that booted me out of the building!), but it was worth it. Its really cute and feminine. It comes with prim arm cuffs, and a super-cute scarf.


I can honestly say that before I went to Glam World, I have never owned a pair of boots. I have never found any I liked, and all of them seemed to have the dreaded pointy toe that just looks so uncomfortable. I found some incredible looking boots at Maitreya! And, of course... I went a little crazy. I purchased two of these awesome boots, as well as some beautiful heels. I love them all. How come I never bought boots before?! From left to right: Bloom, Boot-alicious, and Solace.

And OMG, sorry for the lack of posts lately! I recently bought a Fashionista Closet and am trying my hardest to get my inventory sorted and put away. Its just so time consuming!
