Let the Sunshine in

Hey gang!

Big announcement here!  Some of you may already know some of this but… I have a shop called Shanti.  What you might not know is that I have been so inspired by the whole FabFree experience that I recently changed my shop so that everything is 75L or less!  Yep, even brand spanking new stuff!  Older stuff, BOM/classic things, those are 49L and less.  Woot!  This is not something that will end, this is a permanent thing.  And yes there are lots of freebies to be had!

Today I’m wearing a Shanti Maxi Dress, this is only 75L, is gorgeous for the spring and summer and fits:

• Classic (Fitmesh)
• Maitreya
• Belleza
• Slink

Shanti is very bohemian inspired (cause I loveeee the bohemian stuff, being the boho princess that I am!), which is hard to find sometimes in world. (I wish there was more!!)

I’m also wearing hair from Lamb, this is one of their awesome free group gifts, and yes, that group is free to join!

Enjoy!  I’ve got some new market finds for you next time gang!  Yay!  (and yes this is the one and only time I will be tooting my own horn.  Toot toot!!)

Sing Along with Me!

Old macdonald found a sale ee i ee i oh!
and at this sale he found cute pants!
ee i ee i oh!
with a cute pant here and a cute pant there…..
here a pant, there a pant, everywhere a cute pant!
Old mac donald found a sale ee i ee i oh!

Well its me again gang, Your favorite blonde, psychotic, shopaholic, head in the clouds blogger!  I hope you sang along with me!

As Aline already knows (and she *still* lets me blog!  I tell ya that girl is a saint!) and now you all do too, I love to change the words to songs, I generally make them very silly.  But sometimes they just come out downright BAD!  But that’s the fun in it!

I know, I know, y’all are waiting to find out what goodies I found for you this morning!  So, thanks to the group chat (which is usually loaded with fun info and helpful peeps like yerselves!) I learned of a little part of Scandalize that I (since I’ve been living under a rock, apparently, which someone once told me  lol) is just chock full of freebies!  It’s called Scandals Frees and News.  The group is free to join and it is an entire room of clothes and complete outfits that are totally free!  Really, if they had this sort of stuff back in the dark ages when I was a newbie, well, let’s just say I would have been much better dressed!   You can get an entire wardrobe here!

The cute pants and belt I am wearing are one of the things I found there. They come in this solid color and the same color but with cute little polka dots.  I found so much though don’t be surprised if they pop up in another blog post.  These super cute pants fit:

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Legacy
• Maitreya

OK chickadees, this girl is *starving*! So I’m gonna go find some lunch.  Happy shopping y’all!

December in the Big Apple

It’s December, and all I can think about is New York City.  A few years ago, I made my way to the Big Apple and had the most New York day I can possibly imagine.  I saw Tony Bennett getting out of a cab near Central Park, had a bite to eat in the Plaza hotel and even got mauled by well-dressed women in a shoe sale in Bergdorf Goodman.  All the while, I was surrounded by twinkling lights and sparkling snow.  I’m sure this is a glamourized version of what life is really like in NYC, but hey – from the outside looking in, it’s just a gorgeous little snow globe!

Central Park

I’m hanging out in Central Park today, though it’s possibly a bit chilly for my outfit.  Whatever, the excitement of the city is keeping me toasty!  I got my top and skirt over at the LANA mainstore.  Under the tree there, they’re adding a new gift every two days for group members!  If you want to grab some, just join the LANA group for 99 Lindens!  Yay!

Sizes

• Maitreya
• Freya
• Isis
• Hourglass

Shoe Sale?

Speaking of shoes and such, I got my cute little booties and socks over at Mosquito’s Way!  This month’s group gift is perfect for taking a stroll in Central Park and keeping your tootsies warm.  You can grab your own pair by joining the Mosquito’s Way group for free!  Woohoo!

Sizes

• Belleza
• Maitreya
• Slink

Right, I’m off for a stroll down 5th Avenue!

The Dark Grid

Aline is being weird and spending her time in dark creepy places again.  I dunno, it seems to always happen this time of year!  Luckily she’s extra skilled at the art of kicking butt in cute outfits, so I’m really not worried about her.

Pack a Punch with Pacagaia

As I roamed through the dark recesses of the grid, I got my little mitts on the newest group gift over at Pacagaia!  The group is 100 Lindens to join at the moment, but not only do you get this pretty little romper (that has a fairly extensive colour change HUD with it), you also get a 250L gift card to spend in store!  I call that a deal!  Hop on over to Pacagaia and grab the awesome!

A Massive Treat

There is nothing quite like a little trip to the ice cream shop to brighten one’s spirits!  I got a fairly humongous cone, complete with hot fudge because life’s too short to not eat hot fudge.  Also, I had to take a pic of it because if it’s not on instagram, did it really happen?  Ah, musings on a Wednesday are the best kind of musings!

Happy/Sad

I’m really into my skirt today – hearts with happy and sad faces on them?  Yes!  And cheery yellow hue is just what the doctor ordered.  There’s something vaguely 60’s about it too, don’t you think?  The Yoon skirt is a Maitreya Lara exclusive, and I picked it up for Free over at Ersch – word on the street is that their group join will be free for a limited time right now, so hop on over and grab it!

Little Doll

There’s a new group gift over at CandyDoll – the collar you see above! I comes with a fairly comprehensive HUD to change the colour of the strap, so you can make it go with any outfit you can think of.  The CandyDoll group is currently 450 Lindens to join, but there are a bunch of other gifts you can pick up while you’re there.

Right, I’m not going to eat this enormous ice cream.  Good thing calories don’t count in SL!

Shiny Disco Balls

I’m always down for something a little sexy and sparkly.  Especially the sparkly part.  You could probably bedazzle a sack of potatoes and I’d wear it because SPARKLES!  Luckily my new outfit is nowhere in the realm of the potato sack, and it was completely FREE!

Oooh Shiiinyyy

The Sami outfit from Mia Styles is a free group gift currently available in their inworld store!  I joined the group for free and now I own this pretty and fairly intense little outfit.  The top and skirt are separate so you can totally mix and match with other stuff you already have in your inventory, and the included HUD is chockablock with colour options – some of which, much to my delight, are sparkly!  I may just have to go out dancing in this, because it’s kinda begging to be under a disco ball!

A Hint of Fall

Where I currently am in the world, it’s still flipping boiling out.  I trudge to work in the heat, spend all day in a non-air conditioned space, feel my face melting off for several hours, then squish my way home in the heat before finally arriving home to a well earned shower.  I shouldn’t complain about the heat, I know in a few months time I’ll be shivering until you can hear my teeth chattering from several metres away, but just a hint of cool would be welcome.  I think Aline feels the same way, as she cozies up in her turtle neck bandying a leaf at me tantalisingly…

Come Sn@tch it Up!

I tells ya, there’s never a dull moment over at Sn@tch – there are a whole bunch of new free lucky boards just waiting for you to snap them up!  No group join required, just a little patience.  I got my mitts on the Dana Mixed Mesh outfit – it comes with the turtleneck and dress you see above.  The turtleneck comes with system layers and an Omega applier so everyone can enjoy!  Loads of different tartans to choose from in the HUD, as well as three different turtle neck colours!  I’ll throw out a little tantalizing tidbit as well – there are shoes, hair, tops and socks in the lucky boards all waiting for you to claim them.  Head over to Sn@tch today!
