Walk Between The Raindrops

So, in my little corner of the world, we are definitely stuck in between seasons… There’s still a little snow on the ground, but it’s warm enough outside to go out without a winter coat. It seems as if Mother nature just went “eh… I dunno what season it is anymore either” and gave up. If you’re stuck between the seasons as well, Sn@tch‘s new fishing outfit will be perfect for you!

Between the seasons includes 24 pieces to fish up, and has a ton of options! This outfit is great for rain or shine, and as a great bonus, the ballet flats included work with both default avatar feet, and slink feet… AND the outfit includes appliers for Lolas tangos breasts!

I’ve shown just a few ways you can wear this super versatile outfit here, but feel free to let your creativity shine and try different combos!

My cupcake-clad nails are from Wicked Peach, and are on special sale for Lazy Sunday! Snatch a full pack of 6 colours, including the purple I’m wearing here, for just $L75!

Friday Night Finds

Good evening Fabulouses!  TGIF!!  I hope you all enjoy your weekend ;).   If you have time, maybe check out a few of the items I am sharing with you tonight in this post! Some are free, and some are just darn good deals.

The K-Collection Bad Blood Dress I am in today is available at LIV-Glam for just 55L for 55L Thursday.  This dress comes with a texture hud that allows for six different colour changes, so it’s six dresses in one!

The jewelry I have accessorized with today are all group gifts.  You can find the Arabia Necklace as a group gift at LEONARD (80L to join), and the Locked Handcuff Bracelets as a free group gift at Pure Poison  (free to join).  The adorable Pugly Bumblebee was sent to me as a gift from a dear friend (thank you XiuLan! xox), but you can find it at this round of The Arcade Gacha for 75L per play in the .birdy. machine.

This sexy Girl Trouble hair is available at The Arcade Gacha for 75L per play, and this skin that is REALLY WoWing me is the latest group gift at WoW Skins.  The group join fee is 300L to join, however it will gain you access to several group gifts, lucky boards and midnight mania boards too.  This month’s gift is called Sid, and includes cleavage option and an eyebrow shaper.  The slink hand and feet appliers are not included, but I had some matching Lina Tan appliers from a different pack that matched great!

I HAD to put on my slinks because I needed to show off this awesome nail applier set made by Evie that is available on marketplace for 70L.  It was a Valentine’s edition, however it’s one of my current favourites simply because I like the patterns and colours.

Whew, I’m out of breath…  I need a drink! *cheers*

Hello Spring

I’m still up to my knees in Canadian snow in RL, but it’s springtime at It All Starts With A Smile in Second Life!

I have several free items to share with you, and I have no idea where to start!  Lets start with this great outfit…  You can find the Pepper Outfit that includes the pencil skirt and blouse in a beautiful, springy shade of sky blue as a free group gift at FA Creations.  This group is free to join.

The skin I am in today is the latest group gift from Morphine (formerly Mirror’s Enigma).  She’s called Lauren and comes in a medium skin tone in two makeup variations (blush and matte, shown below), along with cleavage and eyebrow options as well as appliers for Lola, Lush & Phat Azz.  To obtain this free gift, you must be a Morphine inworld group member.  If you are not a member, simply make a purchase in store, and you will be auto invited to join.

These hot Screw Handcuffs were sent out as a free subscribe gift to Pure Poison subscribers recently, and my Slink Nail Appliers are also free!  In the Envie marketplace store you can find a Limited Time Freebie that contains three colours in a hud for both toenails and fingernails.

Have fun shopping!

Today’s Top 10 Hunts

Greetings once again Fabulistas! Here’s a list of what’s hot in the hunt world today… the top 10 hunts recorded at HUNT SL.

Now we can’t know how many people are actually attending each of these hunts, but thanks to the excellent reporting capabilities at WordPress, we can tell which ones are getting the most attention on the web. The top 10 are the hunts that have gotten the most page views over the last 48 hours or so. The ranking can (and probably will) change within the next few hours.

So, bearing that in mind, here is your top 10 for Wednesday, March 5th:

See you out on the hunt!

Twisted Magick

Second Life’s famed Twisted Hunt has started! Known as the hardest hunt in SL, this round’s theme is  ”Magick”. I’ve participated in the Twisted Hunts many times and they are always a challenge, but seriously fun. Several stores have both male and female gifts available. There  are also stores offering a little something extra for those hunters willing to take the time to participate in a little mini-game. One such store is B!asta, so don’t miss out! LNS designs is another shop participating in this edition of the Twisted Hunt with a lovely Magick inspired hair and helm set. I really thought the gifts from these two stores went well together, so I’m excited to share  them with you here! Happy Hunting!
