This
post-Christmas time has been one of
the funnest ever what with the
Creators Stamp Rally,
Designers United III,
oodles of gifts + sales going on.
I took a break from all the
fashionz craziness to pop into one of my favorite spots in SL,
Drowsy, which always has lovely hidden secrets tucked around every corner. I happened upon some unexpected gifts here, like this cute "Winter" skin for
$1L that comes complete with striped long johns, long gloves + button-down tank top attached (!) The face on it is very youthful + girlish; check out the red-nosed effect + glossy red lips action too.
Kyooot.
Here's a close-up of the face on this adorable skin. Clearly, I've caught
meself a li'l case of
le sniffles.
Drowsy is a seasonally-changing build + I found other
fun-ness here, like these tri-color long-sleeved jerseys. Several colors were just hanging around casually on a tree, ready to be plucked for
$1L each.
I'm a
total sucker for cute low-prim housewares, and I found these
free pretty glass bottles, which will look
tres pretty on
Gavin + I's whitewashed window ledge. These are great for prim hogs like
moi since they'll cost ya a mere 1 prim each.
I also found this adorable Christmas "bird" tree at
BP and this trailing rotating lamp, with pretty yellow stars hanging off the edges. All for
free or
$1L.
There's even these
yummehs hot red bean buns with hot steam wafting off of them that you can nab for
free. Which incidentally, happen to be one of my
fave sweet treats in the
whole entire (RL) world.
While I was exploring, one of my
favie minidresses by
The Plastik, the "Shredder," came to me in this
gorges "Snow" silver color version, which features tiny little multi-color snowflakes strewn all over this
so-short design with the "shredded" torso center area. This was a review copy but I believe that
The Plastik has their
$1L December giftie fatpack still out in the front of the store. Thank you
Aikea Rieko!
I paired this dress with the
free sculpted booties gift by
Courtisane, which are some of
the funkiest boots I've seen all year. These have such luscious textures in the various sections, and I
luhs how crazy the toe area is, with all the separate toe indentations. This is such a unique look +
tres fun for us
fashionistas who
always want something a li'l different.
Gavin + I decided to try our hand at the
Creators Stamp Rally (where we ran into some cool people like our new friend, fellow blogger
Takeshi Ugajin). Although
Gavin + I didn't quite make it any farther than the
COCO store, we did discover this
gorges sea plane suspended above the
COCO SIM. (It was hovering above a
mini snowman army, which kinda sorta gave us
the giggles). This seaplane made for a perfect
chillax spot.
These pics show the sit from the
free female AO from the bundle of gifts at
Le.Look! (this AO is the final gift, which I believe is still available until 12/31, so you still have time to grab it). It's
so so kyoot. I have paid
a lot of
$L for AOs of all the top brands in SL + I have to say that I'm enjoying this
supaflirty one so much that I haven't taken it off in days.
Here I'm wearing one of the other must-have gifties that I think have been some of the coolest scoops all year: this
free black down cropped jacket by
Gabriel (this was from the
Beauty Avatar Couture hunt; this same jacket was/is available in a shiny silver color at the
Mimi's Choice lucky board). A red longer version was available as a gift earlier this year, but the black
cropped version is simply
the smex. There's pretty silver buckles + pins detailing on it too, and a cool fur-trimmed hood. Plus isn't it
way fun when you find something in SL that you already own in RL? Hee.
Now would also be a good time to mention how much I've been enjoying the new
Belleza skin group gift. Check out the
simply awes face on this skin: to me, this face gives such a mischievous blend of the
sultry + the
gamine. Full (but not overly full) lips give
le pout + look
tres sexy with such a
petite nose. The group join fee is
$250L but as always,
so so worth it.
*mwuahs* Tricky Boucher!
The jewelry I've been wearing thruout this post is from one of my fave SL jewelry designers,
Donna Flora, who has some
amazing gifties out right now, like the
Bice Ring previously blogged here + this amethyst-encrusted floral "Camelia" choker that is simply stunning. Creator
Squinternet Larnia is one of the most prolific + generous gifters on the grid, and her holiday gift comes not only with a complete necklace + earring set, but also includes a complete outfit featuring pretty gold-bead trimmed red mules and a holiday dress.
A note for all those
detail freaks like
moi: check out this crazy back of this necklace. 1 side is princess-cut amethysts + the other is pearls (!) This
ridic level of unique detail is
just one of the reasons why
/me so
totes hearts Donna Flora. (There's also another
free modern, silver squares-motif necklace + earrings set gift in the subscribo that
Captain Bacon Pizza (aka
Sileny) blogged about
here).
A big shout-out to
all the designers who have truly made this year (and especially these SL holidays) one of
the funnest ever with all of their
awes + truly generous gifts.
I also wanted to give a very special thanks to all our
SLexy Fashionista friends for reading + supporting this li'l blog. It's so much fun putting together these stories + looks for you all + we are always
tres overwhelmed by your kind words + support. We
really appreciate all the love!
Here's to even better style + much joy in 2010. Warmest love + fashionista kisses to all!

I absolutely luhs this party dress. It's suuuperfloaty when you wear it (i.e., way fun) + the tiny lace edging just peeking outta the babydoll skirt bottom is so precious. Love the subtle ribbing texture on this bodice too. Plus unlike some of their pieces here, this skirt is mod (so you can shorten it). -- Ahhh so perfect for sunny porch loungin'.
This jewel-toned periwinkle lingerie set totally caught my eye for its open lace texture + scalloped edging on the bra.
I've long been a fan of the Cherry Girl blonde hair. There's a bit of brightness added to these hairs, making these blondes look more like a warm honey blonde with brown lowlights in them. This is one of the free lucky board styles. See how nicely this color captures the light?
Happy Hump Day to everyone. Love + fashionista kisses to all!
