BOOM – Closing Sale

It’s with a note of sadness that I write this post. I found out yesterday that BOOM will be closing their doors, possibly as soon as tomorrow. I can still recall BOOM being one of the first stores I genuinely loved to shop at. For me, and I’m sure for many others, there is a lot of nostalgia around a brand like BOOM that has been part of Second Life for so long. According to the notice sent out by the designer, the store will remain open with all items at 75% off until the end of the month. I didn’t notice much anything (other than fat packs) that was priced at more than 75 lindens. So don’t wait, stop by BOOM and get some amazing bargains. This will be your last chance to own those items you’ve been eyeing but haven’t bought yet. If you’re new to BOOM, you’ll find everything from accessories to formal gowns, and a few select men’s items. I definitely picked up a few things for myself. Here’s a little of what I found.

Hair – Magika [03] Mint

Skin – Lumae – Adore – Darkling

Head – Lelutka – Aria

Sweater Dress – *BOOM* Oslo Baggy Sweater Dress Coal – 75L

Wings – *BOOM* Aranel’s Wings (v2) pitch – 57L

Treasure Hunt

Good Tuesday morning, FabFolks!

Fall is a great time for Hunts in Second Life. We’ve got everything from the ultra difficult Twisted Hunt to some of the more casual hunts. I decided to relax a little with this next Hunt over at the Kiyomizu Sim. This is a neat little sim set up like a Japanese street market with lots of fun things to explore. From now until October 11th, Kiyomizu is having an “Autumn Treasure Hunt“. Just find the little “Ninja Cats” hidden in many of the shops for a free gift. Some of the cats are hard to find but most are pretty easy. One word of caution: some of the shops have hidden their Ninja Cat in the main store rather than the market shop. So if you can’t find the kitty grab a landmark to the main store and try there.

Now what I’m showing you today… First is this sweet cardigan and dress combo from M*Motion. The soft color is just right for fall and I love the pattern on the dress. It’s sheet music! So cute and creative! (MMotion is one of the shops to hide the Ninja Cat in their main store)  Memory has set out two Ninja Cats for the hunt right there in the booth at the street market. I’m showing the earrings and the other prize is just as nice!  Rounding out my outfit are these leather sandals from SMC. This prize comes with both a men’s and women’s non rigged version of the shoes plus a TMP version and a SLink version for Flat feet.

This is a fun quick hunt in a nifty little sim so don’t miss it.
