Artic Storm $10L Special June 6 2024_001

Here’s a quick special you don’t want to miss out on. Especially if you like animal prints like I do. I love it when I find something that won’t break my piggy bank.

Here’s the Deal

Artic Storm has been in Second Life for a long time. And Artie is so generous putting out great outfits on the non-group Midnight Mania boards and providing specials like my dress today. The Bethann Jungle Leather Leopard dress comes in embossed leather and it costs only $10L.  Loving the leopard texture! I’m not sure how long it will be out at this price so go and get it if it suits you. It has a lot of nice details that elevate the look. There are ties & straps and the skirt part is ruched on one side while the top part is a halter neckline style. Also included are a pair of BOM panties and black stockings.

Sizes

  • Legacy
  • Perky
  • Maitreya Lara
  • LaraX
  • Reborn
  • Waifu

You don’t need a group tag to get Bethann at this price. When you land at the store and walk in do a quick left then a quick right. The vendor will be on your left side. While you’re there take advantage of the Midnight Mania boards both downstairs and upstairs because these also don’t require a group tag. I am not a group member but I do subscribe to the store news. I get a weekly notecard detailing all of the specials.

Pretty Lips

If you haven’t heard the news, Pout has closed it’s inworld store. My Lip Power lipstick applier was one of the group gifts. That’s the sad news. The good news is that many of the store items are now on the MP. You can purchase this for $0L from the MP store. There are over 60 Pout items selling on the MP for $10L and under. Have fun shopping from home!

Okay folks, my stopped up brain is telling me to stop before I begin babbling.

Have a FAB weekend!

Hot Pink!

Tres Chic Anniversary May 2024 2_001

I’m in a pink mood today as you can clearly see. Thanks to the designers participating in the Tres Chic 9th Anniversary for gifting me & all of you. Today I wandered over to New York City for shopping and sightseeing. I could have gone out into one of the many forests of SL but I didn’t feel like dealing with critters. On second thought there are people critters in NYC. Oh well, I forgot my cootie spray is in my hotel room.

I have gift from Tres Chic to show you. First up is this lovely outfit from Casadel (it’s a new to me store). The Lydia outfit comes in 2 pieces: the top & skirt. I love the top with its’ open sides delicately tied with a string. The front looks like a regular shirt top with a cute collar and buttons but those open sides sets it apart. It’s refreshing to see something that’s a bit different. The skirt is pleated with a wide waistband. You will need to join the free event group and wear the tag to grab all the free gifts there.

I See the Aurora

Alma Miranda GG May 2024_001

I didn’t get to see the Aurora Borealis in real life. I think it’s showing here on this mysterious island. Just look at those beautiful dancing colors in the sky. I don’t know if it shows up in daylight so just work with me here.

Fun & Playful

The latest group gift from Alma Miranda is this cute three piece outfit. It doesn’t have its’ own name but I don’t care cause it’s really cute & comfy. The outfit consists of the top, skirt, and a “V-zone cover”. I’ve never heard the term V-zone cover but it is simply a crotch cover/sort of panty. The texture you see here is what you get. I love it because it’s a playful one. The mushrooms are too cute! Hmm, maybe I should be out foraging today.

The Alma Miranda group has a join fee of $100L. Currently there are 20 group gifts located on the back wall. That’s a pretty good deal in my book. You also get a 5% discount on purchases and can level up your discount to 50% off. (I’m not sure how that actually works.) The group gifts are fairly regular.

TTFN,

Looking For Any Tequila Sunrise

LRS CC April - May 2024_001

You might think, why is Cre in a gown in a desert? You have no idea how far us blog people go to find places or backdrops for posing in. I’ve been keeping a folder of landmarks of places for pictures. Sadly, it seems that as time rolls along many of them are no longer available. Today, I flew to Eden. It’s a beautiful sim with lots of sunshine.

The Newest Queen of the Desert

My outfit today is one of those you can dress up or down. Do you want to look stunning or do you just want to go to the beach and maybe walk along the water’s edge? It’s one of a number of free group gifts at LRS (Group join fee is $50). The Eileen outfit consists of the top, skirt, and heels along with. Despite what the ad shows as different textures the outfit comes in this deep red color. I love, love, love red. For group members there are also lucky letter boards for the group. Eileen and the other gifts, boards are directly ahead when you climb to the second floor and then to the left of those vendors.

Sizes

  • Legacy
  • Legacy Perky
  • LaraX
  • Reborn

I’m short & sweet today. Our lovely, windy spring weather has me coughing and hacking. I think I’ll hang here by the seashore and inhale a lot of salty air.

Peas & Love,

Kitty Love

Stunner Originals $25L Tuesday April 16 2_001

Hi there! Don’t you just want to put on lingerie and go walking in the valley? Sometimes in Second Life we need days like that. Maybe not often but we just do. I have a short quickie today to show you today.

I fell in love with this lingerie the moment I saw it. By now, I think you know that I LOVE cats. Though I only have one fur baby in real life, he is a handful. In fact, he is always willing to help me out when I’m doing a post here. This is one of the the $25L Tuesday offers at Stunner Originals. I have to say that the Luciene corset & panties is pawsitively purrrrfect with it’s paw prints and cute cat faces. There are ten different colors in each hud (corset & panties). Luciene is sized for:

  • Legacy & Perky
  • Maitreya Lara & LaraX
  • Reborn

Don’t forget about the lipstick that is also on sale today for $25L. The Realce lipstick is made for Lelutka Evo & Evox heads. It comes as an applier hud with 12 darker shades that have a shine to them. Stunner Originals does excel at creating beautiful makeup. You really can’t go wrong with this set, imho.

Please note that I have no idea how long the sales items stay out. However, there were issues with the vendor for Luciene this morning so I’m hoping it will stay out longer.

Voila’!

In a Pinkish Mood

Spotlight Lucky Chair Kassidy & leLa Jaya Sandals_001

Like most of our bloggers we often seek out new places to pose for pictures. I either pick one from my folder of places for pics or I type something like “park” or “garden” into the search box to see what pops up. Today I visited a community named Circuit La Course that has much to offer. After walking around for a bit I got thirsty so luckily I carry drinks in my handy, dandy, inventory. I just reached in & pulled out this yummy concoction.

Shine Like a Spotlight

Don’t ya love being in the pink? I sure do. Pinks & reds are my favorite colors; the brighter they are, the better. And of course it’s even better when you score a free outfit! I spent some time over at Spotlight stalking the lucky boards and won this adorable outfit, Kassidy. You will need to join the free Spotlight store group. In addition to the lucky boards there there are many group gifts & $5L items on the nearby walls.

Kassidy consists of the top & skirt with the belt. There is also a MASSIVE hud of textures for each piece to choose from. Kassidy is sized for:

  • GenX & GenX Curvy
  • Legacy & Perky
  • Maitreya Lara, & Petite, LaraX And LaraX Petite
  • Reborn & Reborn Juicy Rolls

Hair Today

Stealthic is participating in the current round of Fifty Linden Friday sales. You have probably seen many of the blogging team wearing today’s offer – Reckless. Seems like we all like the same hair! It’s such a cute style with the bangs pulled back & pinned in the middle. The pack on sale this weekend is the Basic pack that includes all color huds with one style variant, several size options, and the ability to turn roots on/off. It’s a great price for this style! Note that you need to follow the circles on the ground outside of the store to get to the FLF item. There is also a free group gift available there (which Aline posted HERE) and several gifts in the main store on the wall to the right of the reception desk. The Stealthic group is free to join.

Don’t Forget Your Feet

If you care to wander down to Palomma Plaza you can pick up a pair of nice heels by Le’La. The free to join Palomma Plaza group tag is required for this free gift. The Jaya sandals are rigged for Belleza, Kupra, Legacy, Maitreya, Slink, & Star Body. The enclosed hud has a number of solid & print textures so you can pretty much match or complement anything else you’re wearing.

Peace & love,

Cre

Lawdy, Lawdy Ms. Claudie!

Teleport Hub GG 3-2024_002

Doesn’t Ms. Claudie look red-hot? Who is Ms’ Claudie, you ask? Well, she’s one of the latest free gifts for the Teleporthub.com group. I LOVE the color red and this sexy dress fits the bill for me. The Teleporthub.com group has a join fee of only $10L. You can copy & paste the following into local chat in SL secondlife:///app/group/0ceeb685-fd83-1c3d-1de6-16a72517f4f6/about. It’s a group I’ve been a member of for many years now. There are a number of free group gifts around the grid. You’ll get notices about gifts and sales and it’s refreshing not to get the same notice too many times a day. Designers are limited to one notice a day. Once you’ve become a member there’s a url on the general tab you can click to go to their web site.

Now, let me tell you about Claudie. First you have to head to Spicey Secrets with the Teleporthub.com tag activated. The gift is then free to grab. The dress is one piece though it looks like separates. And the additional little details like the chains and buckles really spice it up! Another big plus for this fatpack is that sizes for newer versions of mesh bodies are in the package.

  • Belleza GenX Classic & Curvy
  • Erika
  • Kupra
  • LaraX & LaraX Petite

Feeling Like a Princess

Wanderlust Noble Creations_001

It’s shopping day! No, I mean Saturday but there is lots to shop for. I picked up this gorgeous gown this morning and want to tell you all about it. One of the many weekend sales events is Wanderlust where items are $50L or less. It runs today & tomorrow.

While perusing the ads I came upon this offer from Noble Creations. The Princess Dress consists of a bra top and dress. A handy dandy alpha is included and it works perfectly for me. The texture on the dress is so fine & elegant. There are a number of colors to choose from at this price. I don’t wear gowns much in SL but sometimes it’s just fun to get all glammed up. And at this low price you can stuff your closet with as many colors as you like.

I’ll Show You My Heart

Almost time for love, hearts, flowers, and chocolates! All things Valentine are coming very fast. Some women want roses, others want the whole deal. Me? Just hand over those chocolates! Now! All that aside, I’ve got a steal of a deal for you!

The lovely dress I’m wearing, Freyja, is a special one just in time to get you into Valentine’s mode. Telsiope’s Couture has this one on sale starting today,  January 22nd, for only $10L! You can find it in the Outlet Store. The dress hugs your curves quite nicely and though I don’t have a picture of the back of the dress, let me tell you it’s nice. It has a cross-laced ribbon that is tied into a bow giving it great details. There is a texture change hud that changes the texture on the front of the dress. It gets the Cre’s Seal of Approval. Oh and it has a LaraX size!

My saucy looking red heels are currently a free gift at Diesel Deluxe for the Mesh Body Friends free group. These are sexy as hell. I’m a firm believer that red shoes do an outfit good!

If you think I look a bit different, I am. I am constantly collecting shapes and modifying them to my liking. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Cest la vie! The Britta Shape for LaraX is still free at @rOrO

Happy Monday!

Ball of Confusion

@rOrO Dress & shoes_001

Yesterday was a bit of a disaster for me. I was seeing all manner of weird things on my screen and all of a sudden my body went berserk! My skin wasn’t right. After a lot of consternation I finally figured out that I was wearing both the Lara v5.3 AND LaraX! I can tell you that you don’t want to try it. It will mess with your head big time! I can laugh about it now but I was flummoxed yesterday.

That rOrO!

Rowan C. has been a busy bee designing clothing for the LaraX body. All of the clothing at @rOrO is priced very reasonably. And there are many free and low cost items in the shop. There are 2 non-group lucky chairs along with a Midnight Madness board with a $100L Gift Card. A FabFree group gift is available to the left of the reception desk along with several other group gifts. As most of you may know, Rowan Carroll is one of our FabFree members and designer, so do visit her shop & show her support.

The Cotton Candy Cross Strap Dress is one of the revolving prizes in the lucky chairs. This cute number is textured in lovely shades with a festive looking pattern on the lower skirt part. It is sized for Maitreya LaraX & LaraX Petite.

Lucky for us, she also has a pair of matching shoes, the Cotton Candy Ombre pumps are a gift for the Teleport Hub members. The group has a joining fee of $10L. It’s well worth the Linden dollars because this group gets a number of gifts throughout the year. The shoes are sized for Legacy, Maitreya, and Reborn.

Get It On Sale

I spied a beautiful jewelry set in the sales galleries over the weekend. Heartsdale Jewelry is in the Lazy Sunday with the Biba set (earrings & necklace). You can buy it on the Marketplace for $75L until January 16th. It’s a simple yet elegant set. The included hud allows you to change the color on the earrings and the centerpiece of the necklace. It’s a pretty good deal so get them while you can.

Peace,
Cre
