This pretty, fresh-faced skin is the latest and greatest VIP group gift from BIRDY. The group is only 50L to join, and the gifts are always fabulous. Oh, and if you’re a slink mesh parts wearer like I am, you’ll love the fact that hands/feet appliers are only 1L for the ENTIRE PACK! I kid you not… every, single tone, hands and feet, for 1L. I was so thrilled!
The nail appliers I’m wearing in the post are a free gift from Flair (hands & feet included). There are several gifts out at the store right now, one of which I showed you here last week. So be sure you pick them ALL up!

Skin – BIRDYMaisie Skin ~Pure~ (group gift / 50L to join)
I had really hoped to post this yesterday, but for some reason, WordPress was being a stinker, and every time I tried to log into my draft, I wound up in one of Love’s drafts. Weird! I finally gave up and went to bed, but I’m back today to share this news with you!
PurpleMoon Creations is sponsoring the SL version of Pink Shirt Day – Bullying Stops Here. The actual Pink Shirt Day was yesterday, February 26, 2014, but… you can continue to support the project until March 4, 2014. If you head over to the PurpleMoon in-world store, you can pick up this cute t-shirt for a minimum 10L donation. More is appreciated, of course, but every Linden counts. And fellas, don’t feel left out because there is also a pink shirt for you!
“Bullying can take place anywhere and it’s important to speak up about it. Stand against bullying without saying a word by slipping into a pink T-shirt.” PurpleMoon Creations invites you to wear a specially created mesh pink shirt for males and females and show your support against bullying. A minimum donation of L$10 is required but any higher amounts are appreciated!
Net proceeds from this project will be donated to the CKNW Orphans’ Fund in support of Boys & Girls Clubs Anti-Bullying programs. As of yesterday afternoon, PurpleMoon had raised almost $30kL!
As the mother of a young daughter, bullying is something that worries me every time she goes to school or interacts with others. I remember the “mean girls” when I was young, but sadly, there are so many more and different avenues for bullying nowadays… it really is scary. Many thanks to PurpleMoon Creations for spear-heading this project in SL!
A few more items of note in this post: my super cute, ‘do is a new group gift from Tram. It only comes in this ginger color, but it does include a resizer, so you can fit it to most head sizes. My skin is the Pink FuelSora Peach Flushed which Love originally showed here. My bracelet (which says “Friends Forever”) is a gacha from NuDoLu, and because Xia said I need to wear glasses more often, I’m wearing these fun Peace Glasses from Fabuleaux (also a gacha). OH! And my pretty nails are a free gift from Flair. There are several other gifts available on the wall at Flair, so be sure you pick them all up!
I’m all dressed up with somewhere to go… but… where? I seem to be a bit lost here… I guess I’ll just head towards Anywhere and see where it takes me! At least I’ll be looking good on my way in this fabulous group gift dress from Glitterati by Sapphire. The jacket is mesh, and the skirt is a fun, swishy flexi… perfect for a night of dancing! The Glitterati group is 50L to join, but is so worth it considering the monthly gifts and discounts for members. My jewelry is an older group gift from LAZURI; in fact, I first showed it here about a year ago. But I noticed yesterday that it was back on the group gift board (it might have been there a while and I just noticed it today), so I thought I’d share it again! As with much of LAZURI’s jewelry, it is color change, and comes with 9 metals, 6 gems, and 9 stones for the center heart. Oh, and 2 different styles of earrings! Finally, these super cute shoes are by {Mango Cheeks}, and you can find them at the current round of Kustom9.
Fly me to the moon And let me play among the stars Let me see what spring is like On Jupiter and Mars
Today is the last day of FutureWave, and as promised, I’ve got a few more goodies to show you. There are so many amazing creations on display… I wish I could show you more, but unfortunately RL has kept me hopping all week. In fact, the thought of flying off to the moon sounds really appealing after the week I’ve had! But enough about that… here’s the stuffs!
This gorgeous dress is by .:ellabella:. at FutureWave, available in several different color combinations. The texture is outstanding IMHO, and I really like the space design on the skirt. It comes with the pretty necklace I’m wearing. Not free, but a really great deal for all you get. Ok, so… what IS free? These glowy, neon wings by Stuck Products are free! I love these so much, especially since you can change the color to match what you’re wearing. The wings are part of an entire glowy, neon angel outfit, all of which is FREE. You can find it next to the typing discs I showed yesterday.
If you are wondering, this fun, To the moon and back pose prop is by ~*HopScotch*~. You can find it at the current round of Genre… six cute poses are included.
How much do I love this skin?? Seriously… WOW. I’ve been wearing Pink Fuel skins pretty much since I landed in SL and figured out how to shop, but I always felt they had a slightly younger face than I would have liked. Now… here is Sora, and she is beautiful! This special edition in the alabaster tone is currently available at FutureWave. It’s not free (I know, “Booooo Serena!”), but it is a really fabulous deal for such a lovely skin. Lots of eye make-ups and lipsticks in the package, along with basically every type of applier you could want, as well as this supernatural face glow which I’m wearing here (which made my face all shiny and alien-ish). You can bet that I’ll be tapping my fingers and sighing impatiently until the full version of Sora is finally released! …le sigh… Anyway, if you want to give Sora a try but don’t want to spring for the special FutureWave edition, you can still pick up the Sora Flushed skin for 75L at the Pink Fuel main store (Love showed it here).
Finally, two more FutureWave freebies/cheapies. My mani/pedi is a free gift from ~*By Snow*~. The nails have a “circuit” design, and the version I’m wearing comes in black or silver. There is also a gold version in the box, as well as a face tattoo. And last up is this cool Steampunk ring from Chaos, Panic, & Disorder. Obviously you can’t see it in the picture, but the gears spin around… how cool is that? There is also a men’s version available – only 1L each!
Did I mention that FutureWave ends TONIGHT (23 Feb 2014) at midnight? So why are you still reading this? Go! GO NOW!
Happy Saturday, fabulous readers! I’m out for a stroll with my little Boston Buddy. I seriously cannot resist SL dogs, and this cutie-pie from BIRDY is no exception. I love her little sweatshirt (color-change!), and the fact that she doesn’t even complain about wearing it, or try to eat it, like my RL dog. You can find the Boston Buddy at the current round of The Men’s Department. ♥
Mikunch is offering this 2-piece skirt and sweater combo as a special “renewal” gift. You don’t even have to join a group… just drop by and pick up a copy! I should warn you that it only comes in 1 mesh size – XXS – so if you’re a more curvy lady, you might need to adjust your shape. I typically wear a standard XS, and as you can see, the outfit fits me fine. Oh, and I picked up these cute cowboy boots with socks in the *COCO* Designs gacha at The Chapter Four. So much cute stuff there this round!!
Valentine’s Day is over, but it’s never to late to make beautiful music together. You can find this lovely, romantic pose at Positure Poses (piano is included). ♥
While you’re at it, be sure you pick up these beautiful shoes. They’re the Valentine’s Day group gift from Gos Boutique. Gos shoes are always amazing, and these Carrie Pumps are no exception. The come with a stocking option with 5 colors, which I have turned on here in white. But – and here’s the catch – you ONLY have until the end of tomorrow, February 21st, to pick them up at the store. You’ll find them near the landing point by the stairs. (The group is currently 500L to join while the gift is out, but I believe it drops back down to around 50L when there is no gift.)
This sexy negligee is the February gift from ~ghee~. This is a gift for EVERYONE, and no group join is needed – yay! These pretty bracelets are a group gift from Maxi Gossamer, and can be found in the notices. Gavin’s suit is the men’s New Year’s gift from Gizza Creations, and it includes the pants, shirt, and jacket. His shoes can be found in the 0L clearance area at *COCO* Designs. I’ll warn you… they were very small when he first put them on, so they might actually be women’s shoes. But I made them quite a bit larger using the resizer, and they look like they were made for him now. Oh, and see that cute picture on the wall behind us? That’s a new dollarbie at floorplan. It comes with 3 “nerdy” romantic textures; this one says “Amin Mela Lle,” which is the Elven phrase for “I love you.” Don’t ask me why I know that.
This gorgeous build is the Dion Skybox, which you can pick up as a free subscriber gift from Llorisen. It’s really a good size and weighs in at only 12 LI. I love the big picture windows. I added a few furniture items so you could get an idea of the skybox’s size. The items are listed below, in case you like any of them.
Look who I found wandering around the garden: the Love Hamster! Ok, I know Valentine’s Day is over, but I just couldn’t resist showing you this little cutie, a Valentine’s VIP group gift from BIRDY. He comes with a HUD so you can change the sentiment on his heart (mine says “XOXO”). Both my dress and eyes are group gifts from Avi-Glam, and my jewelry is a group gift from Lazuri. The jewelry is also HUD-driven, with 6 metals, 10 heart gems, and 10 small gems.
Just a quick, 11th hour Valentine’s Day HELLO to you fabulous readers! I’m falling asleep at the keyboard, so I want to finish up before my head hits the keys, and you see a bunch of gibberish, LOL! Lots of great stuff here: my outfit is a special Valentine’s Day group gift from Paisley Daisy, but you only have until Saturday to pick it up. The bench, “Scrabble” game, and LOVE picture are all Marketplace cheapies from :: Follow US ::. My nerdy card is a gacha from Wimey, and my boxer bag (on the floor) is the Bag It! Pack It! Clutch It! Hunt gift from Earth’s. The stool is a group gift from [we're CLOSED]; there is also a dark version in the box. Oh, and my book is a subscriber gift from Frogstar (check history).
I’m always thrilled when designers give group gifts for redheads, and these gorgeous skins are the Valentine’s Day gift from Glam Affair. I love them both, especially the freckled ginger on the left. My necklace and earrings (which are hiding in my hair) are on sale for 10L at Baby Monkey; 4 metal colors are included in a HUD. This pretty charm bracelet is a group gift from Hudson’s Clothing Co., and my sweet, deer ring is a group gift from Fabuleux. So much cuteness!
Be sure to stop by A:S:S to pick up these V-Day nails. There’s also a HUD to make your toes purty.
Whew! No heads hit the keyboard in this post!

Serena is wearing…
Skin – Glam AffairValentine Skins Gift (group gift / 30L to join)
The Final Fantasy Festival (FFF) officially started on February 7, and I’m sorry to say that RL has kept me from showing you some of the great stuff you can find there… until today! Thankfully, the event runs until February 21st, so you still have plenty of time to head over. You’ll find items related to FINAL Fantasy (not just fantasy), so that means anything video game, role-play, steampunk, or cyberpunk related. Something for pretty much everybody, in other words!
So… almost everything you see here is from FFF. This complete Cool Cat outfit – including hoodie, skirt, arm warmers, stockings, boots, and glasses, is from FBD Fashion. It’s not free, but it is an event exclusive, and a really fabulous deal at $249L. I really like the detail on the boots. The chains are actually gold, but for some reason, when I flipped on the windlight, they turned silver. Either way, I think they look great! The handy pouch strapped to my leg is a gacha item from Una. There are lots of variations and colors. Oh, and the cute guy next to me can be found in the gacha in front of Cubic Cherry Kre-ations. I think he’s pretty cute.
My earrings and necklace are a FFF event exclusive from ellabella. I’m wearing black, but there are lots of other colors available.
Not FFF-related are these eyes from Avi-Glam. There are several dollarbies from which to choose in the store, but I’m wearing the Clarity Eyes in Grey. Only 1L! My nails by DiAna Homemade Creations are a dollarbie on the Marketplace. You can see the available colors below. And this pretty skin? Totally free! It’s the Romantic Nights Hunt gift from SenSe Skin & Shape. Lots of other great prizes in this hunt, and you have until February 28th to scoop them all up!
With the Academy Awards coming up soon, I thought a trip down a red carpet might be fun. I’m all alone here at The Rose Theater, but that’s ok. It’s a gorgeous build, and I enjoyed wandering around in its opulence, pretending I had box seats to the ballet or the opera.
::PurpleMoon Creations:: recently released this fabulous black and white gown as a gift to group members. It comes with an optional flexi skirt attachment, but I really like the simplicity of the tiered mesh skirt. My jewelry has previously been shown by Care: the necklace and earrings here, and the ring earlier today here. And you can still pick up this lovely handbag by {Junbug} at the Collabor88 sale price, but I’m sure today is the last day, since the collection will be changing tomorrow.
But enough about that… here’s the stuffs!
