Have you made it to the Wash’s *final* Cart sale? I’m so sad it is ending after so many years, but grateful for all the deals and the designers I have discovered through it. One of my deals this time is this oh so cute outfit from 1 Hundred. It was only 50L and it comes in a range of cute colors. Of course I picked pink. 😀 It comes with the top and these cute short shorts. It fits:
Freya
Legacy
Maitreya
Hourglass
I may actually run back and grab a few more colors! But it is so tempting to spend all my money there, however! Just like real life, I have to save up for the rent so, if I *do* go back, I’ll try not to lose my head. lol
Have y’all hit the Crisp and Cool Cart Sale at the Wash yet? After all the candy and blood splatter of Halloween… (Was it just me or was EVERYTHING blood splatter this year?) and before the crazy rush of Christmas, This is just a nice relaxing shopping trip. With tons of freebies and awesome Venders.
Head to Toe

My new hair is… sorta not new. But it sorta… is. Let me explain. This is the Celeste hair from Mina. It gorgeous and come with a HUD of thirty dip-dye colors and a color picker to customize it even further. Celeste is the current free VIP Group Gift. So it’s new. However, this is the style that Mina gave away at the Second Life Birthday a few months ago. Normally, we don’t show “re -gifts” but if you missed the Birthday celebration… now you can scoop up this lovely hair with your vip group membership.

Autumn is my favorite season. Followed closely by Winter. It’s finally cool enough down here in Texas to pullout my sweaters and long sleeves. I couldn’t be happier! The Cart Sale at the Wash is certainly one of my Favorite things any time of year but with the “Crisp and Cool Cart Sale” being all things Fall, I’m extra happy.
Cart Sale Happiness
My first stop for the Cart Sale is the booth at Poeme. I saw this super cute sweater and skirt combo and I may or may not have uttered a ‘squee’ in real life. This ‘Argyle Sweater Set’ comes in eight colors, I chose the Palm green, and each set only costed a small 25L.
I didn’t get very far in my shopping trip because Poeme also has these great boots at their booth. The ‘Kinsington’ boots are the 50L item on the Poeme cart. And they are worth every penny. The boots come with a HUD for three colors.
Last but not least… Poeme has set out a little free gift for us. Sadly, I was having some computer rezzing problems and I missed it! But I went back and picked it up today. It’s SO cute and goes perfectly with the sweater set. So don’t you miss it!

You know what every Wednesday needs? Beach time! I had just hit the Cart Sale ( if you haven’t gone, why NOT??) and I saw that Dark Water Designs had these great swim suits for both the guys and us girls and I thought, “Yep… the beach is calling!” So I grabbed the bargain suits, just 10L each and rang Gabe up!
Tropical Cocktail Time!
This is the ‘Cocktail’ one piece in Merlot. As with everything from Dark Water Design, every detail is perfect and the fit is spot on. You get two versions of the suit: one with this tone on tone design and one solid colored. Not only do you get the suit… You get a recipe for a summery cocktail. I’m going to try the one included with “Merlot” asap! Of course, please enjoy the cocktails responsibly and only if you’re over 21! 😉
Gabe’s “Beach Shorts’ are also just 10L on the Dark Water Designs Cart. There are four suits for the guys. Two tropical flower prints and two camo prints. Again, the design and build are perfect. I like that they’re sorta sexy but still modest.

I was musing the other day that people can get pretty icky about Valentine’s Day. I guess when you get down to the nitty gritty, and if you want to be cynical, it is a fairly commercial holiday. BUT, why be cynical? It’s winter, it’s cold, and we need something to cheer us up. So I say, bring on the red and pink, slap on the hearts, and if you ain’t got a man, then celebrate your gals. Bring on Galentine’s Day!
Carting Away my Heart
I found another AMAZING dress at The Wash Cart Sale! The almost holographic colouring of this lovely little dress by The Little Bat is tugging at my heart strings, and not at my purse strings! It’s 10L of gorgeousness in 4 fabulous colours. I went with Sherbet, because I’m just so sweet ;). This fatpack comes in sizes XXS – L with an Alpha Layer included. The perfect dress for a date, with your sweetheart or your BFF.
Heart eyes all round, my Galentines!

I’ve been feeling a bit sultry today, like I need to class up the joint! I made my way over to The Wash Cart Sale, and found this super gorgeous dress by Baci!
Sultry Indeed!
The silky texturing is just absolutely gorgeous on this dress, as well as the colour grading! Can you believe it only costs 10L? That’s what’s so great about The Wash Cart Sale – you come across some superb finds for such a reasonable price! I am feeling fantastically sexy in this little slip dress, and I’m sure you will too!

Oh, and if you’re wondering just what “Tanti Baci” means – it means many kisses in Italian! The silkiness of this dress definitely makes me feel like I’m being kissed by this fancy little frock!
As we hit the downside of the week, my thoughts turn not to the tasks at hand, but to the weekend. To relax and be with friends and family and to do what I want, when I want, WHERE I want and NOT be stuck in this cubicle. My RL cubicle is larger than this one, but it is still windowless and dreary. This boy needs a little bit of sunshine about now…
I don’t want to work…
My office attire is this month’s group gift from Resun. The Ramon Outfit is a black shirt and tie with tan slacks. The Resun group has a joining fee of $100L, but I was lucky enough to join when there was a limited time open, no fee to join. (New Resident Tip: Join groups that usually charge a fee to join when they have free enrollment for totally awesome gifts.) I found the $10L Scott Randolph Boots (that Astrid originally showed [HERE]) on the Roped Passion’s cart at The Wash Cart Sale still going on.
… I want to bang on these drums all day
And I have two more hunt gifts from the Men’s Only Hunt 9. I found the Hipsta Watch at PBM Enterprises and my pose came out of the pose gift pack I found at Grafica.
This weekend, I’m thinking some surf and sand is just what the doctor ordered…

I’ve been riding up and down the streets of The Wash looking for deals that I nearly ran out of gas. Lucky for me there is a fueling station on the sim. I’m topping off my tank before I get back out there and find more great deals at The Wash Cart Sale. I am impressed at the selection for guys this round. It makes my heart sing and my linden wallet a little lighter, but only just a little…
Loaded for Leather…
I picked up the Ernie Leather Jacket Outfit for just $10L at the Brandy’s Boutique cart. This mesh outfit is just one piece, right down to the boots. I accented the look with the TopGun Glasses, a FREE group gift from A&D Clothing. Now, it’s time to get back out there and fight the lag crowds for more great deals.

Walking along the beach gives me time to reflect and for just a little while, to clear my mind from the “noise” of the events happening around me. It can be very calming to be alone with just my thoughts and to listen to the ocean waves, the breeze, and the occasional bird song. The smell of the salt water and water droplets on my skin make me feel relaxed, just like a sailboat floating along the currents…
When I’m feeling blue…
I’ve been told that blue is my best color because it matches my eyes, so today I found another Cart Sale find at Wash. I picked up both the Free Bird Casual Tee and the Striped Tailored Shorts for just $10L each at the Dark Water Designs cart. The tee also includes a texture HUD for different colors and each color goes will with the pants. I’m also wearing the Worn Denim All Star Sneakers, a gift from Black Label Menswear to the Menstuff Group. The MenStuff group does have a joining fee of $50L.

She wanted to go to the beach. Great, I thought, UNTIL… she wanted to sit on her beach chair, talk on the phone, then decide she was going to read her latest “romance” novel. I came out to have fun. I said, “Hey, let’s go for a swim”. She just shook her head at me as she turned another page. “If you don’t come swimming with me , I’m going to throw you in the water” I threatened. She peeked up over her book and said those three words she knows not to say to me… “I.DARE.YOU.” Sorry, babe… you’re getting wet!
John Dee Green…
We found a cute his and her matching look at the John Dee’s Emporium cart at The Wash Cart Sale. She found the ABRAXAS Crop Top and ABRAXAS Shorts for just $10L each and I decided to match her look with the ABRAXAS Espadrilles and ABRAXAS Shorts also, just $10L each. The Wash Cart Sale continues through April 12th.
