Cashmere and Suede: Tuesday’s Temptation

Laptop, scanner, magnifying glass… I’m heading out for a long day of research at the library, and I sure hope I didn’t forget anything. I certainly didn’t forget to wear this fabulous new group gift from Baby Monkey. The group is 250L to join, but in this gift alone you get the mesh sweater and skirt, plus these cute ankle boots. There are several other gifts still on the board, so you’ll come away with plenty of really great stuff, with more to come!

My necklace and earrings are the latest offerings from Maxi Gossamer at the February round of Collabor88. Called Khaleesi’s Temptation, both are texture change with gold/silver metals and 12 gem/stone combinations. Finally, since I have so much to carry, I picked up this Big Satchel from ::Duh!:: for 20L to hold it all.

Now… where did I put my keys?

[:B!ASTA:] Menswear Sale is Cool Beans

Hey everyone. Serena asked me to let you  know that [:B!ASTA:] is closing its menswear department. I don’t know exactly when, but she seems to think it might be soon. Anyway, all items in the men’s section are on sale from 5L – 30L, and fatpacks are only 50L. I stopped by yesterday and picked up these pants and shirt for 10L each. I even picked up a set of men’s eyelashes for the same price.

My skin is Jacob, one of the current men’s group gifts at -Belleza-. There’s a 250L fee to join, but you get 3 different skins in almost every possible shade in the box, so it’s really a great value. My shoes are a free group gift from ::GABRIEL:: (free to join), my ring is a free gift from Chop Zuey (no group needed), and I found my watch on the Marketplace for 1L. I have no idea who belongs to that cat.

“Billie Jean Is Not My Lover”

I can remember watching Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever with my eyes glued to the screen as Michael Jackson moonwalked across the stage to Billie Jean. It was one of those rare moments that you never forget. MJ has been gone for a year and to pay tribute Kiss This! is providing us with the Remembered Always Outfit. This tribute outfit comes with a white fedora and a black armband. My shades are the Black Aviator Glasses I got from the Midnight Mania board at Equilibrium Design. My Black Leather Dress Shoes are from Duh! for only $20L.

Thanks for the music Michael.
