You guys, this morning I put my baby girl on the school bus for her first day of Kindergarten. She was so excited and waved happily out the window as the bus drove away. I am…okay, kind of. I know she’s going to do great but I could use some hair pats. haha So I called my mom to apologize for ever growing up and putting her through this and then I came here to find something pretty to distract myself with.
My Distraction
This sweet dress was only 25L at Belle Epoque. It is marked down for yesterday’s 25L Tuesday and was still discounted this morning when I went and scooped it up for myself. You can choose either the white that I’m wearing or pink. Both are lovely and have that classy, timeless look that I’ve come to associate with Belle Epoque. I stuck around and took my picture on Belle Epoque’s pretty sim. Even in this gorgeous location and wearing these fabulous things, I realize that this probably isn’t my best work. But I’m fragile right now, okay? Just tell me I’m pretty and give me chocolate and/or bourbon. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go see how much L I can blow on gachas.

Check me out! I’m a biker chick! Well, maybe not a biker chick…maybe more like a bike admirer? Yes, we’ll go with that.
Those Jeans Though
The jeans that I’m wearing are an oldie but a goodie. They are a free gift over at Beautiful Dirty Rich and no group join is required (although if you do join the free group, there are a bunch of group gifts to be had as well). I think a good pair of applier jeans is a necessity in any inventory, and these are fantastic with rips in all the right places. If you fancy your jeans without rips, there are some of those available as well and an assortment of other gifts, all for 0L or 1L. The destroyed jeans come with appliers for:
TMP
Maitreya
Physique
Phat Azz (is that even a thing anymore?)
And if all else fails, there is an Omega applier as well
I want to ride my bike
This motorcyle is awesome AND it’s only 10L on the marketplace. Confession time…I don’t know much about motorcycles, which is doubly bad because I used to be an owner of a bike shop and have many, many used-to-be-awesome-but-now-outdated motorcycles in my inventory. Although to be fair, my ownership was purely symbolic because I was an owner in all of our other groups at the time. I’m pretty sure I didn’t even have perms on most anything. haha But I digress…as I was saying, I don’t know much about bikes, but I know enough to know that this one is really great. It is fully functional and comes with a driver HUD. For 10L. Pretty sweet deal.
Apple May Designs is having a store wide pumpkin hunt until Halloween. There are 7 dollarbie pumpkins hidden (4 in the main store and 3 in the body shop). Find them all for the Spooky panties and tank set, Popstar rings in black, green, purple, and red, Spiderella make up, and the Halloween Giselle skin.
The For the love of… Ice festival begins today and there is a snowflake hunt around the event! These can be particularly tricky little snowflakes to find as the area is very white and glowing and ethereally beautiful and the snowflakes hide well against this background. One of the best ways to hunt is to turn your graphics down to LOW by going into Edit at the top of the screen, then going into Preferences. Choose Graphics from the window that opens and then set to low. This will disable the glow in the area and will make the tricky little things easier to spot.
I think I managed to find all of the snowflakes but there might be a few more that you find that I didnt.

The Snowflake Experienceopens today. There are 62 stores each with special items that donate a portion of their profits to Toys for Tots. Along the way there are little candycanes, each containing a special gift for you!
The sim is split into four seperate areas, each with a little theme and there are some strewn around the main landing area too. I have split the hunt items down into these areas to try to make it easier for you to know where to look. There are some items that I havent found so you will no doubt find more… and I am sorry if I get a little mixed up with some items being in other areas, but I tried to make it as simple as possible for you, so forgive me a few probable mistakes as I have been the queen of mistakes recently with SLURLS.
I got a notice through about the Good Sh*t Hunt that started on 26th and runs until July 10th.. 47 of some of the best designers in SL all with awesome prizes. If you do one hunt this year make sure its this one. The starting place is Estetica and you are looking for a sculpy blue soda bottle. Most of them are really easy to find so it shouldnt take you too long.
With this post Im going to show you the clothing available.. the next post will be skins and then furniture/accessories with the exception of the first picture which shows you the hunt gift from Estetica, as its the starting place so really needs to be mentioned.
You get the roomy skybox and all of the furniture you see it. Its the perfect little space with room to decorate and will sit happily on a 1024 size plot. All together with the furniture its 63 prims (I think I counted right)
The hair is from KiK, the top is from *Hilarious*, Lowrise Jeans are from Fri.Day and the Black Pumps are from Duh!
The tattoo is the prize from ACTCHIO along with a pair of leggings. The Swimsuit prize from [astraia] also comes with the hat and flip flops. The lingerie is not in the hunt.
The dress from Show me on the Doll can be worn both short and long, with the tie and cuff accessories included and the awesome boots worn are also included!
It’s time for some Summer fun around the sim. I was out hunting for freebies and came across the esteticaOh La La Hula La La Hoops at Le Cirque. This was only $10L and has several poses with it. Wilson’s Designs for Men has the Green Pants and Jacket as their June Group Gift. The Flip Flops are also a group gift from G&T Creations.
Wilson’s Designs also had a nice Father’s Day Gift at the store for it’s members. The Blue Tank Top and Old Beat Up Shorts are perfect for playing whatever games you come up with. If you aren’t a member, join and get these nice gifts.
Glitterati is having a $100L sale and I have loaded up my pose stand with new poses. A free gift by the door is the Glitterati Laptop. This comes with five adjustable poses for when you need a break from playing.
