I absolutely love fireworks. That hasn’t always been the case, I was terrified of them as a child. I remember looking at them and feeling like they were so close they were going to burn me, I was not pleased. However, once I got past that it has been one long honeymoon for me and fireworks, for as you know, I love all things colorful and sparkly! Put that up in the night sky and you’ve made me a happy girl! I don’t like that they scare pets though. 😦 That part makes me sad.
So here in the states, as most of you know, we celebrate Independence Day. I feel like this year it stands for more than just one kind of independence. Partly, a coming out of the pandemic (hopefully!) and partly political for some of us. That makes it a bit extra happy for me this year.
I wanted to find something extra cute to wear to see the fireworks, and I found this adorbs dress at AMUI who has it for free, no group required (the vendor will ask you for 1L and give it right back, some vendors have to do that). It fits:
Altamura
BBL
Freya
Curvy
Kupra
Legacy
Maitreya
Hourglass
Physique
V-Tech
It also comes with a HUD so you can choose from 5 festive star spangled patterns for your holiday dress!
Now, my cute little Firework I am holding is from Rabbit House and it is a gacha at SL18B that is only 40L! They even have wearable fireworks that go off when you walk! Soooo cute! SL18B will be there until the 6th so there is still time to hit up this gacha and make yourself festively sparkly!
Happy Independence Day America!

Spent some time with a new little friend, she is a cute little blossom sprite, she loves to walk back and forth on my hand. It tickles!! She is so cute though, I get such a kick out of watching her. She brings me a special kind of friendship, and I appreciate that! Only in second life can you find such magical little friends and I love discovering them!

March is just *full* of all sorts of celebrations. St Patrick’s Day, Women’s Day, Springing forward and getting more sunlight (in the US anyway), sometimes Easter…the start of Spring!! but I bet you didn’t know that there are a *plethora* of things to celebrate in March? Here’s just a sampling for you:
March 1 – Peanut Butter Lovers Day, Pig Day! and world compliment day. This is the day you share some peanut butter with your favorite pig and say nice things about our planet. 😉
March 2- Old stuff day. I think they made this one for me. I’m an old stuff. lol
March 3 – This one made me stop and go “huh?” If pets had thumbs day. Who thinks of this stuff and who decides to make it an official day? LOL Someone said gee it would be nice if our pets had thumbs and someone else replied, yeah! we should make that a day. okayyyy
March 5 – Cheese doodle day! Yay!
March 6 – All about the food today, its Oreo cookie day (double stuf I hope. Though there isnt as much stuf as there used to be. sigh) and frozen food day.
March 18 – This is my day. Awkward moments day! Perhaps though since it is the day after St Pattys, all those extra awkward moments come from folks who are still drunk from the night before, or really really hungover and out of it.
March 20 – Busy day this one. International day of Happiness, Corndog day (woohoo!), kick butts day aaaaaand ravioli day! So its a happy happy day with corn dogs for lunch, ravs for dinner and a whole lot of butt kicking in between! Can’t beat that with a stick! (oh wait, that day comes later in the month. you’ll see. 😉 )
March 21 – Crunchy Taco Day! Viva Le Taco!
March 22 – I celebrate this every day… Goof off Day
March 23 – This *has* to be my favorite. Puppy day!!!! OMGGGGG I adore puppies, and maybe for puppy day, Jian will *finally* make me the cute shih tzu puppies I have been requesting for over four years since I lost my sweet Tara and can’t find a comparable black and white shih tzu companion pup anywhere in sl!
March 27 – Joe day! Hats off to all the wonderful guys named Joe! and hats back on to those Joe’s who are *not* being wonderful. This is also Quentin Tarantino’s birthday. Maybe his parent’s shoulda’ named him Joe. Joe Tarantino.
March 28 – Happy Birthday to Lady Gaga! Who shares her special day with something on a stick day and the ever popular respect your cat day. 😉
Some of these give me ideas for some blog posts. lol But I should get to the matter at hand, I’m celebrating two holidays and an event in my photo today. Obviously one is St Patty’s day, which I am celebrating with yet another faboo sneak peek of the Fab Free St Patty’s Day Hunt, courtesy of Fantasy Illuminations (Previously Fantasy China/Between the Stars), with the gorgeous sparkly wall decor she made! I am also celebrating International Women’s Day courtesy of AMUI who made this cute inspiring top, which is free at her store, no group needed! This shirt comes in:
Altamura
Freya
Isis
Venus
Ebody classic & curvy
Legacy
Maitreya & Petite

Although I don’t dislike Valentine’s day, I just find the holiday kinda cheesy. Sure, I love going out with my beau, but all the hearts and chocolates and roses? Not really for me. As you may remember, I’m more of a Halloween kinda gal! I can still celebrate V-day in a darker gothic style if I want to this year, so I put together this gothic romantic look for V-day.
There are several love-themed hunts going this month, as I am sure you all were gleefully waiting for. Ari-Pari also has a host of Valentine’s hunt prizes available at their main store. First up is their prize on the Love For All Hunt, which is where I got this awesome heart plant! The hint is, “don’t put my love upon no shelf!”. Every prize on the Love For All Hunt is free, so go get ’em!
The second item I am showing is also at Ari-Pari: the prize for the Leather & Lace Hunt 4 (LALH4). The prize is the Amy Blouse, which you can change via a number of colours in a HUD, and the Amy Skirt that comes in black suede. The hint is: “you’ll find me near the serpent resting on a tree”. This great prize costs only 1L.
Sizes Included:
Freya
Isis
Houglass
Lara
Legacy
Kupra
The Amui Outlet
After reading Arielle’s awesome post the other day about the gift card at Amui, I checked out the store. I discovered that Amui also has an outlet in their plaza. I got these great boots called Lolita boots in a fatpack of different black textures, and they cost only 75L at the outlet. Steal! Plus, it’s under our Fab 75L limit. Woot! Go get ’em boots while they’re on sale at the outlet!
What makes this look “spooky” is the makeup, in my opinion. I rocked out some glitter eye makeup and smeared lipstick with the new, free BOM updates (#5) from Izzie’s. Just head over to the “Bom Updates V” sign. The package is loaded with BOM makeups, skins, tears and more designed for a variety of heads to be used with bakes on mesh, which is my go-to now. Some of the makeups even work with heads they are not designed for; these are extremely high-quality items! These freebies are only available until February 8th, so make sure you scoop these up quickly before they go away and for sale again.
I paired the Izzie’s makeups up with the LOGO Ivona head, as Izzie’s designed several BOM makeups in the bundle mentioned above specifically for LOGO . I blogged about the monthly LOGO head deal last month, but I wanted to include more details about it and to clarify how this promotion works. Please note that this promotion is not an under 75L deal, I just wanted to give some information about these heads that are going on sale because several fab free readers inquired about this offer and have asked me to include it on the blog. Plus, I am buying them and using them in my photos anyways (at least once a month), so I figured I may as well tell you about the deal when I am wearing these amazing heads.
Each month, LOGO is selling an older head- but still fully bento, BOM, and mesh- for only 300 L once a month. As long as you join their free group you can get in on the deal. This month, the head is Ivona and it costs 300L in February. There is a catch, however.
What’s the catch?
In order to buy these LOGO heads for only 300 L every month, you need to have previously owned the LOGO Animation & Customization Hud. If you do not own it, you can buy it at the LOGO main store. You need to own the hud previously to use all the makeups and bells whistles with this head, and to install BOM into it. The customizations huds are full-price- not on sale. You may have gotten the hud for free if you grabbed the freeChelsea head gift back in November (which I blogged about here). That gift is no longer available, but if you did get the customization and animation huds then, just redeliver your Chelsea head and re-open the customization hud to use it with these sale heads. I used the female customization hud that came with Chelsea (after a re-delivery)- and it worked perfectly for me!
Buying the logo customization hud is a one-time purchase and once you own that the customization HUDs will work with ANY LOGO head (male or female) so you only need to purchase it once to get in on the monthly promotion. Considering these heads normally go for full price between 2500-3500 L each, this is an amazing price! The current head on sale at LOGO, for 300 L only, is the Ivona head, pictured below.
Hair – EscalateD Amina- Naturals Universal Hud (Available at We Love Roleplay for 25% off) Mesh Body – Maitreya Lara Mesh Head, Eyes & Skin – LOGO Ivona (On sale temporarily for 300 Linden/ Group sale/ Group is Free to Join) Eye Glitter- Izzie’s – LOGO – 11 Glitter Eyeshadow emerald d, in Bom Updates V (Free)
Lipstick- Izzie’s – LOGO – Smeared Lipstick raspberry (darker) Bom Updates V (Free) Nails – Maitreya Lara Photo Location– Luane’s Magical World
Hope you are all doing well as we roll on into February!
What kind of clothing makes you feel sexy? There are sooooo many ways to feel sexy. You can’t go by what everyone else does to feel sexy cause we all got our own brand of sexy, ya know what I mean? Embrace your sexy, ladies! Even if its offbeat. Usually my sexy is a sort of geeky nerdy bohemian sexy cause that’s me. I always say I’m sort of a bohemian version of Elle Woods, or I aspire to be. She is such a confident extrovert. Whereas I… am a dorky, awkward introvert. LOL But people that have known me for ages don’t think I am an introvert. Cause once I am comfortable with someone, well, all hell will break loose. 😛
But I digress!
Where were we? Oh yes, sexy. lol (Like what was the point of this post again??? lol Someone give me one of those V8 bops on my forehead huh! Remember those?)
AMUI is being oh so generous to us, she has a $250L Gift Card available until February 15 so that we can all spoil ourselves for Valentine’s. It’s free to group members (Group fee is only 25L) and half price ($125L) to non group members. She has a wonderful variety of styles to choose from so you absolutely cannot go wrong. I love her shop. With my gift card I scooped this sexy velvet evening dress. I chose this yummy purple but it comes with a HUD that gives you five gorgeous color choices. The velvet, the bare-shoulder-ish-ness and the slit make me feel sexy!
It comes in these sizes:
Freya
Isis
Venus
Fitmesh
Maitreya
Ocacin
HourGlass
Physique
Curvy
Fine
Voluptuous
While you are happily shopping at AMUI, you will notice a section of gorgeous jewelry by Lazuri, there is a free gift there, no group necessary, so grab that too! It comes with earrings (not shown) and the necklace I am wearing, which just so happens to go mahvellously with my dress. 🙂 There are some really beautiful pieces there, I may have to go back for a bit more shopping… 🙂
Pups and kittens my friends!
