Heads Carolina, Tails California

Do you ever just have the urge to just GO? Just toss some clothes in a bag, get in the car, and drive until you end up in some totally new place? Me too! Except I am never a light packer and it would end up not being spontaneous at all. What can I say? I need stuff!

I’ve been having so much fun with the theme of The Liaison Collaborative this month! Exposeur has made this little suitcase for the Ramblin’ On set that has poses in it so you can sit on the suitcase, or stand on it like I’m doing. And I’m just in love with the Weekender bags from Izzie’s! 8f8 is also out there with the Unexpected Journey set and it has items like this luggage trolley. Ready to go to Hogwart’s?

Happy traveling and shopping!

Throwback

Nothing particularly new to show you today, so we’re calling this my Throwback Thursday look. 🙂 I think sometimes it’s a great idea to dig into our old outfits and pull things out. We get so obsessed with having, and showing, the newest of the new that we forget our old stuff sometimes is perfect!

But I’m a skating girl today because it’s my nephew Raven’s BirthRezday party tonight! Happy BirthRez Day, Raven! Can’t wait for your party!!

It’s Bright, Baby!

Tomorrow is awesome! One, I’m going away for a girls’ night AWAY with my bestie! It’s the first time we’ve had to drive away from home in a long time! Two, August starts and it’s my birthday month! And three, FaMESHed opens for its August round!!

I’m so very in love with the new outfit from Mutresse for FaMESHed! The Lili sheer blouse and skirt is just so… ahhh! You can wear the skirt and blouse separately, and there are even sleeves that can be attached. And the BEST part of all is that there is a HUD with all kinds of colors and patterns for the individual pieces! Love love LOVE!

Wasabi Pills will be at FaMESHed this month with the new Sarah hair. I love braids and I love long hair, so you know I am ALL over this hairstyle!

Also at FaMESHed is this fabulous Falling Palm Suite from Eleventh Hour. Okay, can we just pause for a minute and pay our respects to how fabulous mesh items are? Yes, they look good, as is very obvious by this awesome set, but the land impact, y’all! The land impact! For the entire set – bed, tables, bench, fans, and the coconuts and straws you can’t really see behind me … 21 land impact. Can you believe it?? You can have your bedroom decked out with this great set for 21 land impact and still have room left over for more stuff!

Well, I’m off to pack. You guys should take a nap so you can get to FaMESHed when it opens at midnight!

Your Dream Will Be My Dream

I don’t wear a lot of fancy gowns in SL. I’m pretty casual most of the time and we don’t have the time to go to fancy dance places often. But oh, when Evangeline Miles has a new gown out…honey, I will MAKE an occasion to wear it.

Fantasy Faire 2013 starts this Saturday and naturally Evie’s Closet is there! I’m wearing the Kie Spring Fantasy gown in Magnolia and it seriously makes me want to get married all over again. Although there is a pink tint to it in my photo [unintentionally], this gown is more of an off white. It’s part mesh, part flexi, and the combo is awesome! Evie’s Closet will be on the Magnificat sim at the fair.

If you haven’t been to Collabor88 yet, you need to get on it. I am totally in love with Titania’s Filigree Heart necklace from Maxi Gossamer! It comes in both gold and silver metals, two different lengths, and the heart is color change. I went with turquoise because I like turquoise. Do I need a better reason? 🙂

Happy shopping!

Suddenly Last Summer

I know, I know. We JUST got to spring and already I’m thinking about summer?? I can’t help it! I’m a total summer girl! When I tried on the new Nox jumper in Candy from Coldlogic yesterday, I immediately thought, “Oh, that’s a summer vacation outfit right there.”

You can’t really tell from this photo, but the back is totally open! Love love love! Coldlogic released a LOT of gorgeous items yesterday, so you’ll want to hurry on over there to shop!

Now where is that cabana boy….

It’s Time To Begin

The first day of Spring is rapidly approaching, and I am thrilled! I love the start of new seasons, but spring is a special favorite because it is such a rebirth of life. In my opinion, of course. 🙂 And I’m also just so happy with all the lovely spring clothes that are hitting the grid!

Gos Boutique‘s new Lolita espadrilles are ridiculously cute and so very very perfect for spring! If you remember, Gos had espadrilles years ago, but these ones look even MORE amazing because they are mesh and have the foot & sheath so that it fits a LOT better than the old ones did. The espadrilles also use the Colour+ system, meaning that if you buy one pair in blue and later buy one pair in red, you can mix and match the colors of the ribbon, seam, toecap, and laces using the included HUD. I’m only wearing mine in Dusk Blue, but I had a ball mixing up all the colors to get a bright and cheerful look! These shoes are exclusive to The Boutique currently.

OneBadPixel released some new items recently, including these fab Cuffed Denim shorts, which I’m wearing in a floral print. I had a pair almost exactly like this in RL when I was younger! These shorts fit SO well, too! Sometimes mesh shorts tend to give me a really super huge bubble butt or cut off weirdly, but these are perfect!

Drift is one of those stores where every time they come out with something new, I just get super happy! I’m wearing the new Hangover tank, which is just a cute strappy tank that has removable ruffles at the bottom. I’m not wearing the ruffles today because I was just thrilled to death to find a short mesh tank, but the awesome part is that you can change the colors of both the ruffles and the tank separately. How much do you love options like that??

Well, I’m off to play with my new spring clothes!

Sweet Blossoms

I am so happy that spring is coming! And along with spring, The Liaison Collaborative is kicking off with The Boutique! The Boutique is an almost month long event with over 25 amazing designers participating. Any time I can do one stop shopping, I’m happy!

The Boutique opens on March 15th and runs until April 10th, and I’ll have the SLurl for the location for you on the 15th. If you want to find out more about The Boutique or TLC, be sure to check out the TLC blog!

Good News In A Text!

Oh my goodness! What’s this text? It says that the With Love Hunt starts on November 30th! That’s great news!!

This is the third year of the hunt, presented by CHIC Management, and let me tell you guys – it’s ALWAYS great. I am not very much into hunts, especially hunts where you have to pay for the item, but these items are WELL worth the 10L price tag! Other bloggers and I will be showing you some items here during the hunt, and of course the lovely folks over at Seraphim will have a complete round-up so you will be able to pick and choose which stores you wish to go to. It’s a heck of a deal because there are thousands of $Lindens worth of items, but yet even if you get every single one, you’ll still pay less than $800L in total!

See you on the hunt!

Happy November!

Happy November, dear readers! I hope you all had a safe and fun filled Halloween. I don’t eat a lot of candy any more, so getting new Coldlogic dresses was a better treat for me!

The new Palmer sweater dress is just wonderful! I think I like that I could easily pair this with jeans or put a turtleneck underneath. You all know how I do love options with my clothes!

Truth released some great hair a few days ago, and I’m totally in love with the Josie hair. This reminds me of how my hair normally is here at home – scooped back into a messy bun, usually some some random braids here and there. If you wear any of the fades pack colors, there is the option to have a colored braid or a plain braid. I’m just wearing the plain one in this photo.

Did you hear the news? Auxiliary finally opened!! If you’re in the group, you can pick up a box of gifts that includes this awesome Oversized Leather Tote. I simply adore huge purses because I carry a ton of stuff with me always, so you know I love this!

Happy shopping!

Always Another Show

As I was mentioning in a comment to another post here, I’m not much of a skin addict. I know, I know. I LIKE new skins, I love love love to go demo skins, but I’m picky and once I find a skin that is ME, I won’t change for a while. But, I’m trying to branch out a little bit and find new skins, and you know I’d never lead you guys to an ugly skin that I wouldn’t wear myself. So with that said, how cute is the Faith skin from PXL??

It’s a little more mature than my normal younger looking face, but I think that’s what I like about it! When I look at a skin, I look at it from head to toe and all the bits in between, and believe me when I say this one is just fab! This one that I’m wearing is the PXL VIP group gift, and if you’re in the group [and really, you should be], you can receive 25% off of all Faith skin tones and makeups until October 27th!

Have you been to Zodiac yet? No? You need to go so you can get the Jenny strapless blouse from Pink Outfitters! It’s ladylike and simple, but still sexy! I found that the top of the blouse was bigger than what I’m normally used to in a Medium size, so if you’re more busty than I am, you should have no problems fitting into this!

Have fun shopping!
