One Stop Shopping with B!asta and Two Sisters Treasures

Hey there! It’s Leila again and I have lots to show you in this post! Freebies, Group Gifts, Midnight Mania and a Sixty Linden Weekend Deal, all in this post, so please read on!  Here’s a pic of this beautiful and very inexpensive skin I’m wearing in this post, I’ll talk about it later on. It comes also with a shape (not used) and Lola’s Tango appliers.

What’s more, all of these outfits also come with appliers and I’m wearing my mesh breasts in this post!

One Stop Shopping 1

I do not touch up my pictures other than to crop and put them together for easier viewing, so this is exactly how the skin and items look on me to me. I use a simple clear white windlight setting for my pictures as well. (analutetia-avataroptwhiter) I only mention this because I know there’s a lot of questions about how things look in pictures versus how they look in world so, this is just to say what you see from me is what you would get in world with these same settings.

So on to the goodies!

 

This outfit is FREE. Absolutely FREE. It’s on the main desk at B!asta.
One Stop Shopping 3

It is the Generation X outfit and comes with the socks, skirt, corset and shrug, and also includes the breast applier. It does not come with underpants though so if you’re modest like I am, I suggest wearing a pair of your own undies. I had a tintable pair and tinted mine to match the solid color in the skirt. Voila!

With this outfit I am wearing a FREE jewelry set from Two Sisters Treasures. This is a April group gift except for the bracelets which is a midnight mania prize. Join the group and then click the boxes under the midnight mania boards to snag this jewelry set and another one I’m about to show you as well. You must be a group member to click the midnight mania boards and the goals are only around 60 people so you should have no trouble snagging those bracelets.  There’s also two other gifts up there but I’ll let you find out about those yourself.

These boots are a former group gift from Mary Jane Shoes. They are the sleek ankle boots in chocolate. As I said they are a former group gift but Mary Jane Shoes gives a pair of shoes or boots away every month as a group gift and I’m about to show you the gift for this month in just a moment. There’s also a pair of biker boots at the shop for men. Group is free to join!

The skin I am wearing is one of the new items at the brand new round of Structure Your Skin Project. This skin is by AnnaA Body Shop. It comes with the skin, eyebrow shaper, a hide lashes alpha layer,  a shape (NOT SHOWN) and the tango appliers. It also has two versions of the skin and applier, with or without nipples. You get the whole shebang for 99L which is an amazing price and I think it’s an adorable skin. Try the provided demo of course!

Finally, the hair I am wearing is a former Hair Fair group gift that is still available at Damselfly for FREE The pack is a full fatpack so you’re sure to find a shade that works for you. There is also a gift available there for men!

The nails I am wearing are NOT FREE, I just picked something out of my inventory. These are the Precious nails in white from Candy Nail.

Next up is the current Group Gift @ B!asta! This beautiful gown is FREE for group members. It does cost 50L to join the group but B!asta gives at least one gift every month as well as participating in lots of events so it’s worth it to join and get all the great goodies! This dress comes with the top, glitch, skirt and Lola’s tango applier. I tried to get a couple pictures where you could really see the movement of the skirt, so pretty.
One Stop Shopping 4

The jewelry I’m wearing with the dress is also a Free group gift from Two Sister’s Treasures. This is the March Black Diamond and Gold set. You can snag all the pieces with your group tag except for the earrings which you’ll need to slap the mm board to grab. If you scroll back up to my first pic you can get a close up of how pretty this set really is. Again the group is free to join.

The shoes are the aforementioned Free Group Gift heels from Mary Jane Shoes  They are the Vogue shoes in Jet and come with the a hud for metals and skin color adjustments. Group is free to join.

Hair and Skin and Nails remain as above, except I changed my nails to the black color of the Precious Nails. :)

And yes there’s more! The Midnight Mania gift @ B!asta is a set of 4 retro style bikinis which also includes the appliers for all four colors.

One Stop Shopping 2

The goal of the board is 75 and you do not need to be a group member to slap it. These are such cute little bikinis! Go upstairs to give them a slap :) There’s also a lucky board and a comfy sitting area right beside the board.

I’m wearing another pair of shoes from Mary Jane Shoes  This pair is NOT FREE, but it does have 3 colors in the package and are pretty fabulous :) These are the Devious heels in Pink/Red.

Hair, Skin and Nails are all as above, except I changed the Precious nails to Pink!

And last but not least, I’m showing one of the 60L weekend outfits from B!asta.
One Stop Shopping 5

This is the Autumn in Bali set in purple, includes the usual layers, skirt and Lola’s tango applier. It fits and moves beautifully and is a great little outfit to wear hanging out at the beach or to go casual dancing in! Hopefully my pictures show the moevement somewhat.

For fun I also picked up this Jewelry set from Two Sisters Treasures. I am such a fan of SL Jewelry where we can have sparkle (But not BLING) all the time! This Star Silver Beaded Earrings, Necklace and Bangles. Each part is only 10L each so everything for 30L! All of Two Sisters Treasures Jewelry has resizers and I used them to make the necklace a lot shorter so it would go with this dress.

Whew! So in a couple of stops you can grab some fun and fab items to wear. :)

Here’s the direct slurls for each item, have a good night, Leila!

Voxxipack

The necklace I am wearing is called A Dark Fang and is the latest group gift at +:+WTG+:+.  This is a unisex gift and the group is 200L to join.

Like my peepers today?  Hudson’s Clothing Co. just released a new line of eyes called Gazing @ U Eyes and their Dusk colour is currently free until next weekend.  This is a great opportunity to try them out for free and see if you’d like to pick up other colours.Snapshot_010

I SUPER wish I was a little faster with getting this post out to you, because the skin I am in, “Smoky Skin” was just 50L on Friday for Fifty Linden Friday at Belleza.  I cannot stress enough how important it is to be in this group, not only for the stunning group gifts they put out, but also to be notified of great steals like this was!

Dedicated to the Finer Things in Life

Since it’s Saint Patrick’s Day Eve, I thought I’d head over to Dublin and look for a pub in which to celebrate. I’m feeling festive in my St. Patrick’s Day group gift from *Ydea* (free to join), which includes the mesh shirt, vest and tie, pants, and shoes. My skin is the Jacob group gift, which is still available at Belleza (250L to join), and my bracelet is a group gift from Chop Zuey (350L to join).

This looks like my kind of place. Sláinte!

(That’s Gaelic for “Cheers” or “To your health!”)

B!asta @ The Wash Cart Sale

Snapshot_004

Yesterday I showed the Dotted Tights that you can find on the B!asta cart at The Wash Sale, but there are plenty of fantastic designs to snag for just 10L, and there is even a free gift!  The ripped denim shorts and tank top I am wearing in the photo above is called “Sugar For My Honey” and is a free gift for YOU!

This morning I was down at the Wash and was talking with Wym Binder, six year resident of Second Life  who was just returning from a two year break, only to find out that all of her clothes are outdated.  Mesh was non-existant the last time she was active, so she was at The Wash Cart sale filling her inventory up with some new designs at a fraction of their regular cost.

Thank you Wym for taking the time out of your shopping experience to answer my questions :)

Here are the items on the B!asta cart:

A Cynful Shop-aholic

Snapshot_002gg I hope you guys can forgive me but I have a whole lot of UNfree stuff to show tonight and I think I am feeling extra wordy, because this turned out to be really long :/.  I was so excited about these awesome finds, that I put a blog together with them in case anyone else was interested in these goodies.  I do however have three items that are 10L and that’s almost free!  I guess the only way to go about this is to start at the top and work my way down.. so here we go!

 My super sweet hair is a Truth style called Video Games and is currently being sold as a gacha prize at the Arcade Gacha Event.  It is 100L per try and there are tons of great colours / headband choices.  It took me a few tries to get the blonde I was after, but hey – these are transfer, so I can gift the others or trade!

The skin I am in today is a Dressing Room Fusion find.  I am wearing Al Vulo’s Ramona Magic that is available in three skin tones for just 70L per tone.  The skin includes blonde and dark eyebrow choices as well as cleavage option, and Lola Appliers.  These eyes are also included in the pack in both regular and mesh versions.  What a steal!

I have shown this necklace before, but I am finding that it just goes with so many different outfit styles!  You can find the Cross Necklace, made by R+a on marketplace for 10L.  I am SO excited about this Novel-ty Bag made by [POSH] and also available on Marketplace for 10L.  This one in particular was 10L, although there is another book available in their store for free – it just didn’t match my outfit as well, but I picked it up too for future use!
Snapshot_003

You can find this gorgeous rigged mesh Long Shirt & Vest at the Cynful shop featured exclusively at The Whore Couture Fair, available in several colours.  You can wear them together or separate and Tango appliers are included. The Dotted Tights I am wearing can be found in a three pack including black, white and red on the B!asta Cart at The Wash Cart Sale for 10L.

These Must Have Boots, really are Must Have Boots!  They are available at The Dressing Room Fusion in a fatpack of five colours (shown below) for just 100L – thats 20L a pair!!

A Walk in Brussels

vero4f

It’s a great day for a walk in the sunshine, so I decided to take a stroll around the City of Brussels. I’m wearing the February group gift from Vero Modero (free to  join), along with these Shearling Short Boots, the latest group gift from ::GABRIEL:: (free to join).

vero13f

I was lucky enough to get this great skin for free from the lucky boards at *JOMO*. It comes with the tattoo you see here. My jewelry is one of the current men’s group gifts from Chop Zuey (350L to join; lots of gifts out now!), and my hair is the group gift from Mr. C (30L to join). The hair doesn’t come with a hairbase, so you’ll need to find one you like to wear it with. I wearing the hairbase from the *OMIKO* group gift from Yasum.

All this walking has made me hungry. Do I smell Belgian Fries!
