Dancing with Tears in my Eyes

I love the 80’s.  I’m sure I’ve rambled about it before, but there’s something about that decade that really makes me happy.  It could be the madness of the fashion, it could be that amaaaazing music, the music videos peppered with vacant expressions…. or the fact that it was just a little simpler because the internet wasn’t really a thing yet.  I guess that’s a bit weird coming from someone who inhabits a virtual world, but once in a while I long for a bit of time where nobody can get a hold of me.  To be fair, the positives outweigh the negatives for the most part.  I’ll tell you what I do really long for…. massive shoulder pads.

Power Stance

Ok maybe not, but it WAS a total power move to have big shoulders, and pencil thin pant legs, right?  Just roll with me here, I promise I have a point… I think.  Whatever the point is, this iteration on an 80’s theme by Quinnty’s is just so stinkin’ cute that I feel like I’m back in my parent’s house dancing with my dad to a 45 of “Dancing With Tears in my Eyes” by Ultravox.  It’s a whole mood.  You can get yours by joining the Quinnty’s group for 50L, then paying the vendor 1L which will be returned to you (or click, then click the word deliver on the menu that pops up!).

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass

In the Name of Love

These cute banana-inspired earrings come straight from the wonderful Afterparty.  The neon revolution is in full swing there, and you can take part (and take part in Pride celebrations too!) with these sweet free earrings that you can grab by clicking on the vendor (no group join needed!).  There are loads of awesome gifts at Afterparty, so check those out too while you’re at it.

The Chop!

The cute hairstyle that is also making me feel very “that chick in Ferris Bueller’s Day off who spits the coke in Mr. Rooney’s face” (holy niche reference…) is free from Kokolores!  You can pick up your own over at the Hair Fair, no group join required, and it comes in a full fatpack of fun colours.  Check out the Hair Fair today!

Sympathy for the Devil

I’m feeling a bit devilish tonight.  Like I might get into, or cause, all sorts of trouble.  You know, the type of trouble that you should regret afterwards, but somehow really don’t.  You know, like eating a whole bag of chips!  Or um…something slightly more devilish than that!

Use your Magic!

Love told us the other day about a really sweet Bee costume that you can get by trying your luck at Hocus Pocus.  I picked up some of my own awesomeness too!  All you have to do get my gorgeous dress and really nice hair is head over to both M.Na and Kokolores respectively and say “Hocus Pocus” in local chat.  If your magic is strong, then these awesome free gifts will be yours, and if not you can always try again tomorrow.  If you’re feeling a bit impatient, then you can always buy the items for 50L each.  Easy peasy!  Hocus Pocus runs until November 9th.

Ain’t Your Princess

I am not usually one for the “princess” thing.  You know, the idea that I am incapable of taking care of myself, or that I am to be handled with kid gloves.  Sometimes, though a bit of princess is ok.  I’ll never say no to standing tall, wearing a crown and being sweet.  Wait, did I just describe being a pineapple?  Oh…well, never mind!

A Little Magic

My lovely, shiny and unique top is the most recent subscriber gift over at Promagic!  Oh yes you guessed it, it’s completely free! Just click on the subscriber unit, then look in the history section and you’ll find it sitting there for you, ready to go! This gift is sized for Maitreya bodies, and I kinda love the little heart appliques on the back.  Yay!

Got My Hair Did

I always love free hair (who doesn’t?) and KoKoLoRes is totes delivering.  I meandered over there, and found their new group gift – this choppy bob with pink dipped ends (you guys know I love a bit of colour). It comes with a bunch of different natural root options in the HUD too.  I joined the group for free and found this gift upstairs on the second floor of the shop.  Get over there, y’all!

Oh go on then, you can call me princess just for today.

The Search for Hot Chocolate

I’m just heading out into the woods to find a cute little place to get a hot chocolate.  I dunno, maybe it’s a skiing thing…I don’t really know how this whole “great outdoors” thing works.  Lucky for me, in SL it is completely normal to show up at a cabin in the woods to get a hot drink while wearing a rather skimpy little dress.  What, it’s plausible!

A Chill Wind

It may be chilly out, but I need to look absolutely adorable for all the upcoming festivities.  I found my sweet top and skirt combo (sized for Maitreya bodies) over at Adorsy.  You can wear the top and skirt separately, and there are lots of different colour options and combinations in the HUD, so you can totally make this outfit your own.  To grab this gift, join the Adorsy group for free, pay the vendor 1L (which it will return to you) and it’s all yours! (There are a bunch of other pretty gifts there too!).

Face Up to it

If you head over to Shiny Stuffs, you will be able to pick up my lovely makeup look for absolutely free!  I got my sparkly red lipstick (so festive!) and my snowflake-laden eyelashes just by paying the vendors in the middle of the room 0L.  These gifts come with appliers for Catwa, Lelutka and LAQ.

Hope you find a cozy spot to curl up, in SL or in RL!
