What If Creepy Girlies Sold Processed Meat?

Ugly Duck creator Fade Lei's "dark tears" skin has been a photog fave on Flickr recently + it's obvs why; if dark emo is your thang, this lovely pale face -- featuring just a touch of petal pink dabbed on the cheekbones -- offers a remarkably striking visage (these A+++ fathomless black eyes are included too). The new shoulder-length "Sia" windswept style by Truth, streaked with blood red, fit my creepy girlie mood. *double mwuahs Fade Lei + Truth Hawks*
Want a hot dog, mister? They're um, 100% organic. Promise!
And a close-up of these retro-styled pumps by Ingenue for Shoe Fair, featuring a '40s-esque "fat" tapered heel + classic ankle bows; tres perfect in this matte nude tone. Really liked these with Mstyle's new "roses" tights for a full-on vintage feel. *double mwuahs Betty Doyle + Mikee Mokeev*
Processed meat love + fashionista kisses to all!

Cherry Treats

Jule's yummie post below inspired me to put together this cherry look for today, featuring a free lace-trimmed dress by Honey Soul + a tasty free Easter choco treat by Kue. Some chatty free Myna birds had plenty to say about this look (i.e., that I didn't have any treats for them, too). Awwws.
This vintage-styled floral lamp is free (and a prim count steal at 4 prims); any housewares buffs should take a browse, since the Nonino store owner is closing her shop + donating all her final sales to aid relief efforts in Japan.
It's never too early for Easter treats, like this delicious basket of frosted butter cookies that Gavin found for free. You even get a choice of 4 different flavas when you click on it. *snatches all 4*
Speaking of treats, here's a special hair goodie for us frugalistas: Posh is offering this pretty bangs pony style (+ another ponytail style, in a dirty blonde color) as a special $50L sneak preview price until SLT midnight today (Wed). I just had to nom this free chocolate frosted donut with it. Mmmm.

Treats 'n eats love + fashionista kisses to all!

Donna Flora: Percorsi Di Perle

Donna Flora creator Squinternet Larnia has debuted some gorges new pearl & gem "flower bud" jewelry which put me in a tres ladylike mood today.
These pearly sheens paired so well with a new baby pink ruffle top by Ingenue; some sheer patterned "knee socks" + the free N-Core heels added just a touch of smex to this uber-feminine look.
As always with Donna Flora, Squinternet's eye for individual gem detail is unmatched in SL: check out these "trails" of multi-rope pearls dangling so luxuriously from these gem buds. A color change HUD allows you to choose gemstone hues to match your look, letting these classic pearls work with just about everything. -- Btw this is me being fickle re: blonde vs. brunette for this look, heh.
Trails of pearls love + fashionista kisses to all!

Protect the Dreamer

I've been thinking a lot lately about how our physical spaces shape both our physical and imagined selves, and to what extent a material space can serve as a nesting place to help protect the dreamer inside. -- Blah blah blah so a lotta conceptual stuff inspired this image, which also shows some nice freebies.
Here's to cherishing + building your own nests, no matter how humble they may be. Homebody love + fashionista kisses to all!

So Ready For Santy Claus

I got a teensy bit eager for the holidays this year when I won this free deer at the Stray Pig lucky boards. Unfortunately, I had a wee li'l candy malfunction along the way. *breathes minty fresh air*
Here's the complete look, sans deer but with the free new adorable stripey purse at Tomoto. -- You know, it's tres difficult to find Santy Claus' hidey hole in these woods. Those elves must be doin' their magical thang. *steps carefully in heels*
Early commercial holidays love + fashionista kisses to all!

Criss Crossed

I've been having fun playing with tattoo makeup layers + created this look around the green eyeshadow palette I scooped at Kyoot for Stumblebum.
The tank, leggings, shoes + pearl necklace are all new at The Call for Couture; this free oversized bag has been blogged to death but I couldn't resist adding it to this taupe-toned setting. Imagine all the weekend getaway stuffies you could cram in here!

Here's another look using the same criss-crossed leggings, that I styled around a $10L red makeup layer by Djinn & Tonic (check the Styling Credits for more nice $10L finds at the 10.10.10 event; it lasts 10 days). A free croc bag by Septem finished this look.
Criss-crossed is the perfect way to describe my day today. Criss-crossed love + fashionista kisses to all!

Catch the Tram

It's not often that a piece of virtual fashion will make me do a double-take, but the petal-like folds of this thick, organic drapery by Tram did exactly that.
This entire store is tres adorable; the items are displayed in ankle-deep shallow water + there's some lovely jewelry pieces here too, like this dangly "lips" charm necklace.
For a splash of color, I added this candy apple red sequin bag (stuffed with candy) that you can snatch for $1L at JE*Republic.
Luhs such unique designer finds. Love + fashionista kisses to all!
