Goodbye Gato

It’s always sad when a brand decides to sail off into the windlight sunset, but I supposed that is the nature of things in both RL and SL.  One of my fave brands, GATO is closing up shop, but is giving us all a bit of time to gather the rosebuds while we may!

Meow

There are all sorts of goodies to be had at GATO, but I really loved this dress (sized for Maitreya).  It’s deeply discounted to just 60L, and that made me pretty happy.  If you’re looking for even bigger deals, then I’ll point you in the direction of the Gachas, some of which are discounted down to  20L per pull.  Grab all you can now (don’t forget the group gifts too!), cuz Gato will disappear forever quite soon.   Thanks for the mems, Gato!

Now, off you pop.

The Creative Process

Ah, Fab Free…the creative juices are a-flowin!  And there’s a sentence that sounded better in my head.  Despite my clunky phrase, the sentiment remains the same!  I’m all about the artistic pursuits, whether in RL or SL, so why not adorn your SL affordably?  Read on!

So De’Fient

My lovely boots and dress are the offering by De’Fient Unicorn at The Wash Crisp n Cool Cart Sale.  They come bundled together and are priced at a very affordable 50L.  I’d pay way more than that for the boots alone!  I also picked up the long cardigan at the same stall, and it only cost me 1L.  Cute, right?

Easel-y Done

Terrible subtitles aside, I love the whole art set I picked up at The Cart Sale by Luna Rose.  The easel I’m painting on and the stool came together and cost 50L.  The exciting part is that the canvas has a function that lets you paint gradually.  In other words, the painting appears more and more complete each time you click on it and there are two different paintings to choose from.  Fun!  I also picked up the canvases on the ground in my shot at the same cart, and they set me back only 25L.  I love to decorate in SL, so these were fun buys for me!

Do you keep it creative?  Let me know in the comments!

Together in Electric Dreams

We’ll always be together
However far it seems
We’ll always be together
Together in electric dreams

Sometimes I feel like Together in Electric Dreams is kind of the theme song of Second Life.  We basically all hang out together, our thoughts zapping at each other through electrical currents as we make friends, fall in love and be whatever we really want to be.  I sometimes get a bit philosophical about what Second Life is, or what it can mean to us all, and I’m sure you’ll agree it can definitely be a special place.  It has its ups and downs, but it brought you here, and I’m glad you’re here, so it can’t be all bad, now can it?

Completely Syndicated

I’ll stop going all maudlin and thoughtful and get down to the fashion!  It’s time for another round of Syndicate Sunday – a whole week of deeply discounted finds from some of your fave designers!  Everything for Syndicate Sunday is priced at just 69L, so you can grab some cool stuff!  Here’s what I’m showing you today:

Spring Fever

It seems that the symptoms of Spring Fever have gone a bit wonky on me right now.  I’ve never heard of daisies sprouting from one’s face before, but you never know what can happen in SL, right?

Flower Child

I do love a good gacha.  I know there are some people out there who hate them, or who have sworn them off completely, but I am not one of those people.  I love the chance of putting together a cute look for a few Lindens, especially when the outfit is something super cool like this gacha by Mug that I found over at Lootbox.  In just a few pulls, I got the bra, panties, flowers for my face, arms and chest and even shoes!  I dunno, it just kind of makes me happy!  This gacha comes sized for Maitreya, Freya and V-Tech bodies.  Lootbox is open until April 18th!

Good luck, my pretty little flowers!

The Place Where Spring Is

So guys, spring has technically sprung, right?  Flowers!  Colours!  Happiness!  Yeah, and it flipping well snowed in my part of RL last night.  I refuse to let the little white flakes dampen my spirits, so I clambered into SL and found all sorts of prettiness to counteract the cold!

Beauteous

I super love this cute new group gift from Belle Epoque!  The top and pants are attached, so the top tucks in perfectly, giving you a seamless look.  So cute, right?  You can get your own version (sized for Maitreya bodies) by joining the Belle Epoque group for 10 Lindens.  There are a bunch of other gifts while you’re there to pick up too!

I refuse to shovel this snow.  Just saying.

In Between the Lines

You remember when you would read fashion magazines as a teen, and they always contained some form of quiz?  You know, like the type that told you what kind of guy was for you?  Well, I’d always do the ones that told you which style was yours, and annoyingly each time I would land somewhere in the middle of three categories.  Something like, one third rocker, one third boho and one third sporty.  I dunno if there was something wrong with my programming back then, or maybe I was catching on early to the fact that it’s really ok to switch it up!  Today, I’m feeling just a little rough and tough, though tomorrow I may show up in frills!  You just never know…

Syndicate Sunday Time!

Syndicate Sunday has rolled around again, and there are loads of great deals going on all over the grid.  Syndicate Sunday takes place during the week after the first Sunday of every month, and you’ll find loads of goodies priced at just 69 Lindens in some of your favourite stores!  I made my way over to Psycho Barbie and found this insanely awesome bomber jacket (I love the fact that it falls off the shoulders, and it happens to come with a fairly extensive HUD) for just 69 Lindens.  I also nipped by Astara and got these great celestial earrings for 69L as well.  There are lots of other goodies in participating stores, just check out the event’s website to figure out what you just can’t live without!

I Came to Slay

Oh hey guys!  It’s Friday, and I’m ready to chill out on this long Thanksgiving weekend.  Bring me all the delights of Fall!  I want all your turkey, mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie! Oh right, I’m trying to watch my figure so perhaps this little barrier of fingers that I have crossed across my lips will help… probably not… Anyway, I also want to be a little creepy, because well…why not.  Where all my witches at?!

Oh, Grumble

I hopped over to Grumble on the trail of the Boo! Bunny Hunt, and I did NOT grumble when I saw how cute their prize is!  I paid a very reasonable 1L, and got the adorable little skirt (complete with garters) and t-shirt which is just plain fun.  I am well pleased with this development! The clue to find the little candy in the black and orange wrapper is “Better get gassed up if I am going to track down this boo! bunny!  I would check the gas gacha station…”  Happy Hunting!

Have you been to the Pose Fair yet?  There are so so so many free pose gifts to be had there.  Join their group for free, and you’ll be rolling in poses for ages.  I’m showing off the free gift from Kokoro Poses, though I’m not sure it will keep the pumpkin pie from making its way into my mouth this weekend….

Have a fab Friday!

Ramble On

Ah, the fresh winds and golden colours that are inherent to fall!  I love the crispness, the beauty and the deliciousness of it all!  It’s all about bundling up in a lovely sweater and going for a ramble out in nature.  I found the perfect sweater for just such a glorious fall day!

Boo Bunny

As part of the Boo! Bunny Hunt, JellyRoll have a special prize hidden at the store.  Just search for the little candy wrapped in orange and black, and buy for 1L.  Inside, you have this really awesome Autumn sweater!  It’s peppered with all the things that make October awesome, and I particularly love the fact that there are thumb holes added to it!  What a great detail!  The clue to find this lovely sweater at JellyRoll is “Time for a slice!”.  Good luck!

The Witch With a Bank Account

October is upon us!  I’m feeling all witchy and blustery.  Since I promised myself I’d just gently dip my toe into the waters of Halloween and spookiness, I’m going for the witch with a bank account look.  I dunno, I feel like I’m stuck somewhere between Clueless and Worst Witch.  Does that make sense? Probably not.  Anyway, whatever this is, I’m liking it very much!

I Can’t Cabide it!

Terrible subtitle puns aside, this dress is lovely, isn’t it?  I’ve seen variations on this theme over the past few years, but I never get sick of it.  The Aradia dress is a free offering from No Cabide, and it comes with loads of different starry options in the HUD.  I’m a sucker for anything celestial.  Join the No Cabide group for free, and you’ll find all sorts of goodies at the store!  Enjoy!

Swallow has a new gift out for members as well, only for a limited time (Until October 5th, I believe!) – join the group for 40 Lindens, and you can pick up a 250L gift card to buy anything you so desire in the store!  I do love a good set of sun glasses, so I chose the Metropolitan Sunglasses which are a great addition to any outfit.  What will you buy at Swallow?

Now let me conjure this massive pumpkin pie in peace!

Reach for the Stars

Brace yourselves, I’m about to quote some S Club 7 lyrics a you!

Reach for the stars 
Climb every mountain higher 
Reach for the stars 
Follow your heart’s desire 
Reach for the stars 
And when that rainbow’s shining over you 
That’s when your dreams will all come true

Sorry not sorry.  I’m covered in stars and seeing the cosmos, so we may as well reach for the stars while we’re at it!

Bittersweet and Seeing Stars

Oh, right – I was here to discuss clothes!  I nipped over to the Bittersweet event, and found that there are some free and affordable fun things hanging about for you to get your paws on.  I grabbed the Magic Hour dress by Sass for a cool 10 Lindens – don’t you love the starry look?  So sweet.  I also grabbed my lovely lipstick and eye makeup  by MJN for free.  It’s a really versatile and beautiful applier for Omega and Catwa.  Go reach for the stars yourself over at the Bittersweet event!
