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!

Sexy Baseball

I don’t know that I’ve ever been described as a tomboy before, but I’d be willing to take on the moniker if I can wear this comfy yet sexy look!  So cute, right?

Bow Down

I hopped over to the Queenz mainstore and found some really awesome group gifts have appeared!  Not only did I manage to grab this cute top and shorts combo, but also the hair and hat!  The hair comes in a fatpack of colours, and the hat (which is attached to the hair) has an HUD to change the colours to your own preference.  To get your own, join the Queenz group for free and click away!  I feel like I could go play baseball, but in a really sexy way.  Is that a thing?  Well…it is now!

Musing Again

Sometimes when I’m thinking about what to write on my posts, inspiration comes from super weird places.  I was looking at the pic I took for this post, and the pattern on the dress made me think of a pencil case I used to have back in my elementary school days.  Back then it was all about the swirling colours, the intense and vibrant shapes and being as loud as you possibly could.  Well, at least in your colour choices…Not sure the teacher would have approved of vocal loudness!  Anyway, let’s get down to business!

Defiance

There have been some really lovely Fab Free Group Gifts out recently!  The most recent one from De’Fient Unicorn is no exception!  As I mentioned, the pattern just makes me happy, and the cut of the dress really is sexy.  As always, the Fab Free group is FREE to join, so if you haven’t yet, join up then flit over to De’Fient Unicorn, pay the vendor 1L and it will be returned to you.  Yay!

Heels on Wheels

I am loving all these amazing monthly shoe gifts from Mosquito’s Way.  This month’s offering are these stunning platform heels!  Don’t you love the lacing details in the front?  I still can’t believe that this group is completely free to join, since the monthly gifts are super high quality.  The Maxine heels are sized for Belleza, Maitreya, Slink and TMP, so go pick yours up today!

I Love It

The Love store has been churning out gifts like mad in the past few weeks, and yet another one appeared in group notices just recently.  There are a few things in the box, one of them being this high ponytail hair that I will deffo be getting a lot of use out of.  The Love group is currently 400L to join, but there are a bunch of gifts in store, and you’ll find this hair (which comes in a full fatpack of colours) plus another surprise gift in group notices!  Nice!

I am sending you all the swirling, vibrant and awesome vibes.

Sweet September

Ah, September.  The month of new beginnings, slightly cooler weather, and golden fields shimmering in the sun.  I am wandering, lonely as a cloud (as they say), in Yorkshire, enjoying the hazy vistas and beautiful weather!

Oooh – Shiny!

There’s a mini hunt going on over at Lana!  Join their group for free, and seriously get your eyes ready for some tough hunting.  There are three miniscule black boxes hanging around the store (don’t forget to look upstairs too!), and each contains a set of these very lovely dresses called Leona.  Each prize has a different HUD, but I settled on the exceedingly lovely rose gold.  There are plenty of other colours to be had too!

• Maitreya
• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis

Enjoy the golden rays of September!
