There was this one boa in this month's SecondStyle magazine that I loved. I was in a hurry, and didn't take note of who made it, so I had no idea where to start looking. And I didn't really want to search through 100-something pages to find it again.

So, I found myself at Liberte Fashions picking up a lingerie freebie a few days later. I decided to look around at their gowns a bit, and I was shocked when I seen the boa I wanted... in even more colors! OMG, I just about died right there.

bolero

I love it. I got it in black as well as white, and they are just as beautiful as the pictures in the magazine. I have absolutely no idea what I would wear with these, but they were definitely one of the weird things I *had* to have. They are fun, poofy, flexi, and totally one of my favorite things right now.

What: Bolero in black and white - $99L each
Where: Liberte Fashions, LOL Island (45, 93, 26)


I usually don't blog freebies because I think the wonderful freebie bloggers do such a great job of it as it is, but occasionally I come across an amazing thing that I need to talk about. Thats exactly how I felt when I seen these awesome tintable tights from G.L.A.M.

glam-tights-tintable

They come in two versions: solid and sheer, with three tintable shades. A dark shade, medium and light. I pictured the sheer versions here.

glam-tights-tinted

And, they are tintable to match whatever it is you need them for! I quickly put a few random colors for the tint, and I tell you, I love these things. I think these probably could be sold for quite a bit of money, so I am grateful the creator is offering to us for only $1L.

What: Tintable Metallic Lycra Tights - $1L

I hate going to Armidi. I rarely go because of the lag (something there just slows my computer down), and I always find tons of stuff that I HAVE to have. *sigh* Seems I can't help myself in there. But, when the group notice came out about some new things, my fingers acted on their own, and I soon found myself standing in the middle of the Armidi sim.

armidi-lurex-sweater

First thing I found in my Armidi quest, is this amazing Cowl Lurex Sweater. And of course, since this is Armidi, I found myself buying it not only in black (as I usually buy in everything), but white and teal as well. The good thing about clothes from Armidi is that I don't have to edit them very much to fit my shape. Usually with things like this from other shops, I get so frustrated with editing, I want to rip my hair off. This was perfect on me. ^^

armidi-boucle-sweater

Next, I came across the Off Shoulder Boucle Sweater. Again, I purchased them in both white and black. I love the textures on both these and the Cowl Lurex Sweaters. They just look so warm and comfortable.

armidi-au-fraize-boucle-sweater

I don't think this is new and its probably been out for months, but I had to have it anyway. The Au Fraize Boucle Sweater. I got home and started trying on my new sweaters, when I realized.... I didn't buy this in black! Eep! I guess I was so excited to get home and see how these looked, I totally forgot! I'll have to pay another visit and pick up the black one.

Also, the hair pictured in all these shots is new as well! I love Armidi hair, and that one is total love. Its called The Rainy Day, and I picked it up in the Midnight Collection.

What: Cowl Lurex Sweater in black, white and teal - $165L each, Off Shoulder Boucie Sweater in black and white - $165L each, Au Fraize Boucle Sweater in creme and white - $165L each, and The Rainy Day in Midnight - $295L

Back in October, I wanted the cutest thing I ever seen, as I blogged all about it here. I found it at Chapeau tres Mignon, and ever since, that little Lagerfield Headband has been among the most favorite things in my inventory (I'm even wearing it in the header pictures of this blog!). Anyway, I woke up this morning to see that Megg Demina, the creative genius behind Chapeau tres Mignon had dropped the 1920's Antique Headress on me~

chapeau-tres-mignon-headdress

Seriously, the things Megg Demina makes are so creative and jaw-dropping, I can't even begin to wonder where her inspiration comes from. While I love the entire headress, omg, I adore the cute little flexi bows the most. Its well textured as well, which plays a huge role in pieces like this. It is also very simple, yet elegant. It really makes me ask the question to myself: Why don't I have more things from Chapeau tres Mignon? *Goes to buy more pretties*

What: 1920's Antique Headress - $300L
Where: Chapeau tres Mignon, Dreamworld East (184, 194, 21)


Wow, okay. I have no idea where to start this entry. I've been so excited this past week for one huge event: the final Last Call sale. If you ask my partner, he would probably tell you how exhausting it was to constantly listen to me say "OMG Last Call Sale on Friday!!" every five minutes. So, I logged on at 3am this morning, and headed to the Canimal sim to impatiently wait for the Dazzle sim to open. I was one of the lucky ones who got in right at 9am, I was just beaming with glee as I shoved through the lag (omg, the lag was TERRIBLE... even worse than ETD, and people refused to take off their scripted things! -_-)

last-call-catwalk

What I beelined to first was the Catwalk collection. I have been wanting a few of these for months, and now that they were reduced to $300L, I thought it was the perfect time to buy some. I purchased 11 outfits from the Catwalk collection, 5 of my favorites is pictured here. I've specifically wanted the Arachne the most (pictured far left), so I was totally grinning ear to ear when I seen it in my inventory after I bought it.

last-call-normal

All other clothing items made by Ginny and Devyn were marked down to $100L. I bought 63 of these, but only pictured 4. If I pictured all 63, omg, blogger would hate me! There was a few more items I wanted, but they were either not set for sale (Frida Autumnal) or priced at regular price (Dressage Expansion pack and Gabrielle). I think I'll go back later this month after the lag lessens, and check on them again.

last-call-gowns

I also picked up a few gowns. I think Last Call makes the some of the best gowns in SL, so I picked up a few of them in various colors. Oh, and I managed to pick up every wedding dress in the place... because I have an odd soft spot for wedding dresses.

So, go check out the awesomeness at Last Call! Don't forget that Devyn's items in Moderno is on sale for $100L as well, so you can pick some up for your partner, or even yourself *guilty of buying a few pants from Moderno for herself*. And before you go, please respect the other shoppers who are trying to walk by removing all your scripted things before you hit the teleport button. Happy Shopping! ^^

Whoa, where has Sai been?! Its been a while since I last posted. Because Last Call's mega sale full of awesomeness is coming up, I've been refraining from shopping... in my pathetic attempt to save money. I'm sure I'll have buckets full of things to blog about after tomorrow though O.o Anyway, onto the entry...

I really love the Chai skins. Because my favorite shape doesn't do these skins much justice, I haven't purchased any yet. So, when I heard that this month's issue of Second Style was going to include a special makeup from Chai, I was very happy. After reading the magazine (which I love just as much as the Chai skin), I tried the skin on.

chai-faces

As expected, it didn't look right on my shape. But! I took this opportunity to play with the sliders and I think I came up with something that looks semi-worthy of this skin. Though, I'm pretty sure it looks like a shape-makers worst nightmare, to the trained eye. Hey, its my first try! I love the face on these skins, and omg... the eyebrows! I wish I had these eyebrows IRL. -.-

chai-body

The body is great, I really like the shading and highlights. Looks like it might be time to buy myself a Chai skin this weekend (after I recover from the Last Call sale, of course). ^^ Anyway... this comes with the Vedette makeup in the normal Chai tones: Cinnamon, cream, ginger, honey, nutmeg, and sugar as well as freckles options.


sale-etd-01

ZOMG. Sale at ETD. ETD makes some of my most favorite hairstyles, and I just love each piece of hair that comes out of that place. So, when I heard that there was a sale going on, I began trying to teleport right when the sim opened back up. Of course, the sim was already full, so I was forced to go to the neighboring sim and bump into the border until it let me in.

sale-etd-02

For this entry, I pictured my favorite 4 from the tons that I bought. O_o All the hair I bought was purchased in the Ebony color pack, which was priced at only $25L! OMG. Some of the bigger packs range in price from $50L to $350, depending on the size of the pack. The lag there is HORRIBLE, and the sim has been full ever since the sale started. So, if you are lucky enough to get it, and patient enough to swim through the lag - its very worth it. The sale ends on January 26th, so there is still time. Happy shopping ^^
