Monday's Girl Power!!

Power to the girls today with, not one, but TWO amazing lady designers.

Let's start with SLink's Siddean Munro and her swoonalicious Lulu stilettos. Check them out, navy ones on the pic. And to be honest, I'm not normally crazy about shoes, as I'm in love with my SLink prim feet. Not only are they gorgeously made but the skin matching hud took me 10 seconds to match the skin. Me likey a lot. Plus... how cute are the toes... I've even heard rumours that she would update the prim feet with the same cute toes as these. Let me swoon again. Thanks Sid.

SLink hud

How do you like the mirror effect on the shoes... it was a bit tricky to start with, but once you know how to, it's easy, sort of thing. I wouldn't have been able to pull it without Leyla Firefly's genuine kindness, who, not only made me the shoe mirror, but also Skyped me through the Photoshop procedure for the effect!! I still can't believe it. I mean, fair enough, Leyla is not busy at all, she only runs the oldest and most beautiful furniture shop on the grid, Belle Belle Furniture. Thanks Leyla.

Couldn't help having a last minute party in one of her ultra modern living rooms, here is the Arne design. Love it. So I tp'ed the girls, Andie, Cat Cattus and Elfie, tp'ed the Queen last, aka Cron Nexen from Okey Designs and the rest is history.

With great power comes power comes great responsibility


In my wanderings I like to think I find some pretty good things. but every so often I find something so awesome I wonder if I should keep quiet so that no-one else finds out until it's too late and I can just be the coolest cat on the grid. But that's not very cool in itself so I share. Afterall, with great power comes power comes great responsibility. And thanks to the Silk Road Hunt 2 and the completely amazing NS6 I had a truly stunning find today.

Clockwork Oni


This is an incredible free gift. I've been flying around taking some arty shots all day but they are dark and shadowy so don't really show the full gift. This is one of those items that just makes me smile, I hope it does you too.

Clowning Around

Some people seem to think I'm the clown of this blog. I prefer to think of myself as sophisticated and witty, but they're probably right. There are times I'm as subtle as a custard pie in the eye (and it's rhymes like that which make me so classy). So when Urban Republic Co. decided to celebrate their first anniversary with outfits for clowns and... clownettes (go with it) who better than me to slap on the make-up and big floppy shoes?


It was then pointed out that the gift outfits just have clowns on them, I wouldn't
actually be dressed like a clown. And after telling me to take my own clown outfit off and giving me the gifts it was suggested I should wear the male outfit instead of the female one. Which was a simple mistake anyone could've made. Seriously. But we got there eventually.


Not A Clown


There ya go. Me. Not a clown. Or a clownette (it'll catch on, trust me). But I am wearing quite a nice open shirt and jeans from Urban Republic, who always have a big collection of prizes for group members too. But no clown costumes so ya know, pros and cons.

Manywear!

It may not surprise many people to learn that my head has many strange thoughts floating around in it. Many of which I don't even know about, which can be fun! So with the Skate N Surf hunt running for just a few more days I thought I would use one of the gifts from Enlil to play with one. Namely, tinting!


Now I will admit I'm guilty of this one, but we buy goodies and wander around. Some people don't even bother adjusting the prims to fit. But what if you have something tintable? I have a few white shirts that I tint as my mood takes me. It can be tricky getting the shade just right sometimes, but it is usually cheaper than a fatpack and even more flexible. It's handy, but sometimes you want even more diversity! That's where the Sahi tattoo I picked up comes in. I have been thinking about this and I know I have barely touched the surface with this one, but you can create quite different looks just with a little dye.


As an example, let's start with a trip to the beach! I grabbed the Surf's Up board & Pose from Embody and, knowing what the sun can do to delicate skin like mine, I grabbed the sun block. Now i know a lot of surfers do those lines on their nose and cheeks but I figured I'd be different. Which is why I drew patterns on my chest.


Manywear Surfing


That was a pretty sporty way to start the day, so as the sun climbed and the temperature soared I figured I should take it easy. So I headed off to the watering hole and chilled on a boat. The local hippos gave me a great idea though - paint myself in a bit of mud to help stay cool, and to cleanse my pores of course.


Manywear Sailing


As I drifted along I thought the mud paint would make pretty good camo if I wanted to do some guerilla warfare too, but the gorillas hadn't done anything to upset me or my hippo friends so I put the guns away. But the testosterone had got pumping by now so I decided it was time for fight club!


Manywear Boxing


Now you may think the plaid shorts aren't tough enough for fight club, but you'd be wrong, 'cause they are New York's Finest Apparel so I know they have attitude. Leaving the hunt behind I dug up an old dollarbie I have from Hot Dolphin Love and painted the blood of my fallen enemies on my chest. I was ready to rumble!


I may even paint myself silver and go clubbing later, but I suspect I'd actually need to change my shorts if I did that! Madness! But it was fun playing with the different tints today. Some items lend themselves to it more than others, some for completely different looks, and some for subtle variations, but either way - don't buy, dye!

BomChicaWowWow

BomChicaWowWow all these hot gifts from the Zombie Popcorn Hunt4 have put me in a sexy mood and I am ready to let it all hang out.

BomChicaWowWow

For the special parts that are pay-per-view I have this sweet flower lingerie set from Iren. I really like the double straps on the bra and the rich brocade look of the fabric. Very sexy and leaves just enough to the imagination.

BomChicaWowWow

This sexy lingerie is a perfect way to show case all the great tats on this Marzia skin from insanya. The heavy make up and running eyeliner lets everyone know you are not to be played with. Amplifying the badass factor of this look these great piercings from Eluzion and knife armband from Virtual Insanity.


BomChicaWowWow

Wrapping up this sex-pot look sexy messy Hestia hair, group gifty (free to join) from Adoness. I love the color and cut of this style and it is the perfect topper for this hot look. All pics for this post were taken at the new Lollygagger Lane. Check here for more info soon on this awesome hobo build.

Eye eye, I must be an A:S:S!

A lot of my friends have been very, very excited about the fact that Poetic are having a big eye sale. It seems to be 50%/75% discounts meaning 50-100L for a pair of eyes so some good shopping there, they certainly make some nice eyes.


Unfortunately for them, I won't be shopping there this sale. Nothing against them, it's just that Photos Nikolaidis of A:S:S has just launched Vision Eyes. And as I'm a giant ass I am in the A:S:S group, meaning I woke up this morning to find a group gift stuffed with the things. And I really do mean stuffed. This could be the most items I've rezzed in a group gift because... well. I got a sample set from each range, as textures. Plus the prim versions. Plus extra effects such as tears, extra reflections, and... well I don't know because I lost track of it all! The only thing the gift didn't include was an alpha layer, but given that I just can't make prim eyes work without one, I already had one. And I just got given more eyes than my inventory can fit on the screen, so I don't think I can grumble really. It's not as if it's impossible to find a free eye alpha if you don't already have one so I am one happy giftie.


And then I tried them on and I got even happier. These are good eyes! I checked the store and they're 50L a pair, with fatpacks giving a big discount on the ranges. Personally I'm not a fan of fatpacks for a range since I usually like shades of blue so I'd rather buy a fatpack with each style in my chosen colour usually, but that's me. And to be honest Vision has a few ranges that could convince me otherwise. So here's a quick look at my gift listing (although now I'm out of world I believe I missed at least one set of eyes so this gift is even more generous than the images suggest - but serioiusly, my screen is only so big).









Homesick Eyes - Helsinki (extra reflex)vision-eyes_001Homesick Eyes - Helsinki
Resurrection Eyes - Teal (Large pupil)vision-eyes_002Resurrection Eyes - Teal (Small pupil)
Moonlight in your eyes, reflexvision-eyes_003Vampiric eyes - blood
Soultrap eyesvision-eyes_004Sparkles in your eyes
Darkness in your eyes - cinnamonvision-eyes_005Eclipse eyes - atlantic
Heterochromia eyes - blue & hazelvision-eyes_006Heterochromia eyes - blue

Phew!


Now some of those are not stuff I'd wear often. Great for a certain look but not so much daily eyes (at least for me anyway). The Eclipse are my pick of the more artistic eyes - when you really zoom in they have some lovely features. That said, the Heterochromic blues have been left in. I like them, and my partner who has been known to complain when I try new eyes likes them too! We shall see, but I feel they may be loitering.


Oh, and because it makes me chuckle...


In the store they have a pair of gatcha machines. one giving pairs of eyes, and one giving single eyeballs. They're called "Oddballs"!


It made me laugh anyway.

Locks of Love

Locks of Love

Summer is here for many of us, time for us to shed all our heavy winter wear and slip into something a little more comfortable. Nothing says summer quite like a sweet little tube top. This Chiffon Top by Shush was their great gift for the Zombie Popcorn Hunt4. I really like the pattern and colors of this top and the airy feel of it. Perfect for easy summer dressing.

Locks of Love

Add to it these capri pants from American Bazaar, also from the Zombie Popcorn Hunt4, and you are ready for any summer occasion. Classic styling that looks great with anything these are a great staple to have in your summer wardrobe.

Locks of Love

Rounding out this great summer look, this Erika skin from Belleza, group gift in all tones is an easy and safe way to get your summer tan on. Lots of awesome goodies from the ZPH4 so be sure that you don't miss out, hunt ends June 15th!!! All the pics from this post were taken at Love Padlock Bridge. If you would like to know a little more about this cool place check it out here.

Enjoy the warm weather and see you around the grid

Time For Tea

Having been so super lately I was looking forward to a peaceful Sunday morning. But oh no, that just can't happen can it? I'm nearly a quarter of the way through Silk Road Hunt 2 which, like other hunts from those organisers, is wonderfully well constructed. Admittedly a lot larger than I'd typically like, but the impressive organisational skills do make it feel far less daunting.


But anyway, right at the start you can get not one, but two gifts! The bonus gift being a Tea House from Johanna Joubert which was wonderfully comfortable. Thankfully I also picked up this rather stunning lounger robe from Luminous Designs (which came with the modesty saving and rather snugly pleasurable undies you see peeping through).


Unfortunately though, I fear my superhero secret identity may be rumbled, since I found out someone was tampering with my tea. As much as I wanted to relax, I knew this needed action. So I quickly bulked up with the 7' Stocky Shape from Sparklie Silks and called in some reinforcements.


Tea Protection

The battle cry went out and they arrived! Crazy Cakes sent Ninja Bear, and The Mad Hattery sent the panda posse - you may struggle to spot them though since they came complete with my camoflague - the bamboo hat they're all lurking in, ready to pounce!


Now if anyone tries to mess with my Sunday... me and the gang are ready for you!

SuperSuper

SuperFlash? Pfft, what a loser! Sure, he moved quickly but he's a wannabe I tell ya. You should meet a real superhero, the most awesome superhero you'll ever see in fact, SuperSuper!


SuperSuper


Yeah baby! That is the fruits of a Super Hero Hunt Super Session! Is there a better super hero? I doubt it, and here's why:



That's a whole lotta super happening there! Could there be any more? Why yes, since you ask, there can be since I am getting all zen on my X-Men armchair from Xenian too.


Oh, I may also be kinda sitting on Lucy11 resident too. I picked her up in Club Epic which is right near the start of the hunt and she kinda latched onto me. Well, my leg as you can see. She's a nice girl, she saw how super I was and decided to become my sidekick (see, sidekick for extra SuperPoints) and put on some lycra of her own.


[09:47] Lucy11 Resident: Flash Unplugged I want to hug you and squeeze you and hug you and squeeze you, I never ever ever want to let you go!

[09:50] Lucy11 Resident: Flash Unplugged, EVERYONE HERE SHOULD BOW TO YOU! Do it Flash Unplugged, make them ALL BOW to you.

[09:53] Lucy11 Resident: I'M NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER NO NEVER NO NEVER EVER GONNA LET YOU GO, NEVER EVER. I have to pee.

Okay, so she may be a bit chatty, but I like the way she talks.


Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go be SuperAwesome.

SuperFlash!

Not that I'm a geek or anything, but the past few weeks have been full of me bouncing excitedly about the Super Hero hunt. Because I'm not a geek, I'm a super geek!


Now it's here? Wow, this is a rough and tumble hunt. I gather it's the organiser's first effort so I think it's sane to focus on the positives. For folks like me this is a mega-collection of superhero and comicbook goodness! And some of the stores are producing some awesome items I have to say, I mean this is heaven for me. Obviously for my speedy blog post there was no better choice than the gift from Diavolicious


SuperFlash


Flash is... the Flash!


Hey come on, I said I was a super geek up there, you can't grumble about that one.


Anyway, yes. A word of warning to anyone keen on this hunt, the hunttrail is insanely messed up. I've been landing in stores out of order, stores that got the application form but never made it in. Basically it's a bit of an effort. Hopefully it will be improved if they run another hunt, but for now I think it's still worth the effort. A lot of the stores are giving great gifts, and it's a nicely sane 63 stores long so you can actually do it fairly relaxed.


So if you love your heros, go see what you can find! I think you'll like the gifts, even if you'll want to slap me when you tp to a random empty parcel every so often.
