Black Friday Skin Addiction
Wow I am busy today.
Ok so there is a skin group called Skin Addiction, owned by the Skin addict herself Voshie Paine. Today and for the weekend there is a skin SALE, with Skin creators from the group offering a skin or skins for a reduced price to their Skin Group addicts. This is how it will work.
1. You MUST join the Skin Addiction group – there are join posters at the stores
2. You MUST activate the group, making sure that the title above your head says Skin Addict
3. You then buy the skin at full price and within moments the discount will be refunded to you. The reductions vary store to store, but so far IÂ have heard 50% off the skin at Idiosyncrasy, and 75% off the one at Style by Kira, 50% off Fashionably Dead and so on, as you can see from the list there are a great range of skinners involved.
So free up some group space and have a blast, and it might be a great time to fix up some of those alts that you may have made with the new name changes.

Natasha – LeLutka
Those of you that believe that names have meanings, will know that this skins release could not come at a better time of the year.
Natasha means Festive Season,or Christmas child. It is russian in origan and if you call a Natasha Nat not Tash, you might end up with a black eye – that is my experience anyway. This is the new face of LeLutka skins, and will be released this weekend…I for one am so excited about this skin because it seems so much softer and I just love the lips and nose and softness about the whole skin. The body is also fantastic, and Whimsy even exclaimed that I have anklebones, which I don’t know that I didn’t in past skins, I looked at the last and they are there also, but apart from looking at all the skins I own, I am not sure that that isn’t common or not lol.
Natasha comes with only blonde hair base and brows, going towards a more nordic look as Minnu puts it, but the beautful red and brown brows and hair base from Milla release fit perfectly as they are the same tones base. But with Natasha there are only four tones. There are 8 skins in the fatpack, one of which is a base skin no make up, but there are such wonderful choices to wear.
At the moment there are still no hair attachments to go with the new bases, but I found that the Amacci Ponytail attachments in Vanilla Blonde get very close to matching as you can see in the pics. I am also wearing the new Luck Inc corsets with the luck inc undies set I wore the other day, I will do more pics of those in posts to come. The corsets are stunners, and so definitely outerwear options.
The gorgeous pose I am using in this post is from Long Awkward Pose, and is a hunt item from the With Love Hunt that started tonight, so make sure you get all the info on that and don’t miss out. The starting point is at Swansong

One Eleven in Second Life
There has been lots of talk about One11Event, or One Eleven, however you want to say it – for the past few months. The concept is one that has been bandied about many times over the years, but this event is a touch different in the fact that the 111 is going to be how many of each designers items will be for sale GASP!
You read correctly, over 40 incredible designers have gotten together under one apparently amazing rooftop – to do a one time only release of an item, and only 111 will be available. The organisers have done as much as they can to make the event as low lag as possible, from using limited textures, as well as setting up a room you can tp to early so you can load them prior to the event.While you are there you can click and join the sbscriber kiosk they have set out, and get the heads up on the landmark to the official event tomorrow when it is opened to the public. The plan time wise is of course 1.11pm , which is exciting. I suggest working out what time that is in your own time zone, so you do not miss out. The event is planned for a month, but with only 111 items from each designer, I kind of give them 2-3 days to sell out.
If you want a sneak peak at some of the items up for grabs, then check out their website HERE .
Good luck, and if you grab some of the goodies, let me know in comments, I would love to hear how exciting it is to get in and grab as fast as you can, kind of like the real sales for black friday, seems people are camping out up there already.

Lipsmacking good fun
Everyone out there needs to send some love to Cajsa Lilliehook, she is an incredible woman, and a rock to so many…I hope that she knows how much she means to all of us and gets better soon.
Lots and lots of skin love this week. Tonight the latest release from Gala @ Curio was unveiled, two beautiful skins, one called Autumn, the other called Yum. Yum has a more ethnic nose than Autumn and such incredibly glossy lips. Autumn is reminiscent of past skins from Gala, with a more mature face that is going to be loved by many I am sure. One thing of notice, is that while the skins still have the dark and light options in tone, this time it is blonde and brunette brows as the option for each make up, not a second lipstick.
So for all of those out there that had troubles with brows in the past, you should be very pleased, because these two colours work well with all sorts of colours. Also if you purchase the fatpacks, there are two bonus make ups which is just awesome value. Freeing up the face with the beautiful Details hair from Elikatira, this style is an updo with that casual nuance that allows for every day in all situations wear, that is just perfect. A little twist, a few tendrils and a beautifully shaped bun, so girly. Also spot on in the girly is the porcelain skirts from Fishy Strawberry, these are just so cute, and so 80’s but with such lovely warm fabrics that they are go so well with my new Linda boots from Berries Inc.
Summse has been honing her sculptie skills and these are her first ever shoes, and they ROCK so hard. Toggles on the sides, sheepskin lined and leather ties, they are just amazing for first shoes, I cannot wait to see what comes from her next. Keeping snuggly warm at the toes, and snuggly at the upper portion with the Dion shirts by Fri.day. These are soft henley style shirts with an angled button line that ties off with a small piece of ribbon. The colours are great, and other than all the fantastic layers, it is the arm extended glove layer sleeves that always have me glad fri.day knows how to treat it’s customers well.

Wriggles
Not my normal skin tone, but with it being an additional tone to the already popular UnBra skinline, I decided to give it a test run in the Yakira version. It really is a wonderful tone, so deep and dark, and well shaded for those who like a darker look. The make ups that UnBra have for their usual tones, as dramatic as they are, work just as well with this darker tone, which is not always the case with subtler styles. I am also FINALLY wearing Hayley, a discord Designs hairstyle that has its own hair base tattoo, called Turtle, which is so cool because with these styles of braids, the hair does twist into a turtle like patch.
To show off the body of Yakira, I am wearing the new Cutieh undies from Luck Inc, these pantie sets are delightful. There are solids and prints available, and I will be wearing others in the range in posts to come for sure. All layers and such wonderful prints to choose from, I do hope that Luck Inc considers perhaps another set of prints soon, because the possibilities are endless with these.
If darker skin is your thing, check out the new tone at UnBra, because there are many of the skinlines now available in this tone. DEMO DEMO DEMO

You had me at Ahoy
Roughly 15 mins ago the Mila skin by LeLutka was released to the public. The skin is a new range for LeLutka and a new way of packaging as well. The skin is now sold with one hair option, cleavage enhancer. The other hair colour bases, brows and teeth attachment options are add ons you can buy seperately. The idea is that you don’t pay for what you don’t need I guess.
Loving the red hair options, I had to go with that, I love how the red base and brows look, and you can get the combo as an all in one to save on layers tatoo wise. Of coure I am having to use the regular 2.3 viewer to get the full advantages of multiple layers, but if you do use 3rd party viewers that do have tattoo and alpha layers, you can still use at lease one of the options available…just be sure to try on demos and see for yourself what you will need. Also the teeth option is a new to me system, by using the Alpha layer to cut away part of the lips of the skin and allow for the teeth attachment to be shown, however I was able to still see teeth from the actual skin without the attachment, so you have it both ways, but remember, unless you have multiple layers of alpha to use, you wont be able to use this and wear v2 style shoes or other attachments at the same time, so again, demo demo demo.
There are six new tones in the skin line, and they are unique to the add ons, as there is skin tone mixed in so that the effect is flawless. 7 make ups as well as a base which is make up free, and all of them are just lovely…I especially love the eye make ups on these ones.I am showing a lot of the body with the last release of lingerie from Insolence, very sheer and rather exposing this line is, so until now I did not have the moxy to wear it, but with a discreet arm lift and denial about my bottom -Â the way low rise jeans are these days in SL I didn’t think I was showing more than has been seen uncovered lol – there it is, I especially love the options of panties in this set, and the amount of layers options is insane.
I am wearing the Milla hair from Maitreya for the skin pics of the Mila skin, because the reds are so close, and it shows off the hairline, The Lelutka team did say there will be their own hair base hairstyles in the future, so yay on that.
The NEW Hair I am wearing is from Elikatira, the Blind style comes with two bangs options, and the overall style of it is just GORGEOUS, the flicked back and clipped side, with the beautiful loose braid, so perfect and so the level of divine we are used to from Elika.
I am wearing it with the new anchored frocks – I so love that they called them frocks – from Whippet & Buck, you had me at Ahoy with these. Not only are they nautical lovers fashion fun, but the babydoll can turn into a lovely vintage look cossie with one toss of the skirt and into the ocean you can dive, so perfect for those sailing trips with your partner enjoying the ebb and flow of the ocean.
Go forth and find your sailing mate, and have a glorious weekend, with your new skin, new hair and new frocks YUM.

it is Craaaaaaaazy
A big shout out to Cajsa, we all love you and wish you well!
The other week I was invited to the pre-opening of Euphoria, the latest shopping sim by Joy Laperriere and Magnifico Miggins. The sim is just beautiful, the build is amazing and the stores are fabulous quality. The whole sim has a concept of savings for the consumer, with a rewards programme you can find info on at kiosks around the sim. I really liked the way the sim was layed out, you could spend a lot of time there, without feeling as though you are unable to find what you are looking for, the time spent would be to actually enjoy the atmosphere and perhaps window shop, as the windows are fabulous.
Two of the main outfit pieces I am wearing today come from Euphoria stores. The first is the Kathy set from Donna Flora, more known to me for Jewelry, this ensemble is just divine work, also pairing it up with an older favourite pair of dress pants for a more casual dressy look. The coat being the perfect style and colour to show off my new CRAZY hair colour from Amacci, who has released a new 8 pack of colours which for the time being are all incredibly reduced to only 35L a pack in every style in the store. For those of you who love these kinds of colours as your regular hair, you just won the hair lottery lol.
The second dress is from Teefy, who has done some great releases in the past weeks. The dress is from the Euphoria store, and the hat and sculpted socks I bought at the main. I am all hat loving for this one, and hope there are more to come…adding some devol leopard leggings for a more funna look. The extremely high shoes I am wearing are the latest from Indyra Originals, she has a wonderful range of shoes and accessories, and the hud for the feet and shoes is just wonderful, with an extremely saucy logo, so be sure to check those out.
The necklace, earrings and bracelet I am wearing are new from Logo, they are stone chips smoothed and threaded, which I love, and have in seashell and garnets in RL. The Skin I am wearing is the new Amber from League, shown before but today in a tad more detail. The skins come in two different make up packs, one more tame than the other, but both including enough range to really enjoy them. They also have hair bases, freckles and cleavage options, as well as a cover up tattoo for down there if wearing lower cut clothing. Try the demo on the skin is just beautiful to wear, and the body of amber is awesome as usual.

Under the Sea
I issued a Plurk Sunday challenge today, but it doesn’t have to stay confined to plurk. The challenge is that everyone comments on ten blogs, they can be store blogs or fashion blogs, just share a positive thought and spread some joy, as it is always nice to get feedback, and with the many thousands of readers out there, it always amazes me how rare it is to see comments, even if it is just ‘ I love those _____ I am off to shop ‘.
The post today all four looks started with the divine hair from Exile. Kavar Cleanslate is so amazing at offering such a wide range of styles with his hair releases…and these latest ones are just divine, another hat/hair for me to love love love. The first look because of the length and style of the hair under the super cloche hat style, was not so vintage but more modern, which makes for a nice saturday morning brisk weather look,while heading to the local cafe for some breakfast.
The second look is a lot more va va voom, mixing Cynful and Zaara is done twice today, the first with this look has the beertilicious dress with the beautiful distressed shrug. This fluffed out hair is the perfect length to show off how incredible the texture work done by Zaara is. The third hairstyle was very student like, so I went preppy college girl…I know in reality that no college students around here dress like this, but in my mixed reality they do. The skirt was a flf item, but am pretty sure it comes in other colours. The jacket is from the Jane store, which is a new store for creator Janie Marlowe of older Mischief fame…really cute store, and the tank I have on is actually part of a free tank table she has.
The dress on the right is the latest from Zaara, this comes two ways, wrapped with bare skin revealed, or with an underlining colour. For some reason SL ate my underlining version, and while I could have shown the bare, I wanted to experiment with the idea that find the right dress, you can make your own inserts in your own colour choices. Sure enough the Beertilicious from Cynful fit like a dream, and so I wore the light tan colour, which matches the colour of floral print in the crimson dress…YAY.
All of these looks are also showing the latest boots from YS & YS, the creators behind the brand recently took a much needed break and are back and making stuff already. These boots are beautiful, and have a sculpted sock that can be worn with in contrast or not worn at all…there are two tone, and solid versions, in a variety of beautiful colours.
I am also wearing the Amber skin by League, stunning make ups, so many incredible options, cleavage, hair base, freckles. WIth two different packs of make up colours to choose from in wonderful rich tones. Try the demos and I will show more in my next post.

Bend it stretch it anyway you like it
We are nearly halfway through Novemeber already, can you believe it? This year has flown, and yes we say that kind of thing every year, but this one just got crazy manic. With the amount of events, and ‘things’ on each and every week, there just didn’t seem to be a down time at all, you know those weeks that go on endlessly and we all anticipate the next big thing…I miss those boring weeks lol.
A mix of design houses today, in the form of LG Concept and Nyte n day. The jeans I have on both me’s are from LG Concept Femme, and they are really lovely, I especially like the patch work ones, I do admit to it taking a few hours for me to realise that the patches are in fact very religious in nature. But they say you wear your heart on your sleeve, so why not your religion on your pants . The Puiqe set from Nyte n Day is so darling, that it can be worn as a beautiful off the shoulder top, or as the all in one with so sexy flippy skirt. Another great recent item from Nyte n Day is the Capu Hoodie, this hoodie is so soft looking I could spend all day in it for reals. An added bonus is the length of the sleeves.
You may notice I am wearing the new Slink Jolie Hands, yes amazing sculpted hands. These end up at the mid forearm, and while the hud is so easy to use, and you do also have the option of jewelry to hid the seam, sleeves of this length with prims makes it perfect. Not only do you get wonderful nail polish options, but it also now comes with a nailpolish hud for tinting which means colours are endless. Other adorable accessories are the great glasses I am wearing from DECO, both the buddy and cats meow are fun to wear and come in a great variety of colours. It is wonderful having such a good range of real sculpted glasses nowadays.
The new boots I have on are the latest from Courtisane, and come in so many lovely colours, these are some of my favourites available and as usual Enktan of Enkythings built these beautifully. A great way to show off – finally – the Eva skins from Glam Affair is the new Vishe lingerie from Nyte n Day. Tanks long and short, as well as bra options are all great. The Eva skin has a wonderfully youthful look, with incredibly gorgeous pouty lips and beautiful make ups. All topped off with wonderful styles from Magika, that woman is a hair making machine, I cannot wait for more more more.

19.99 a minute
I asked Whimsy tonight, “What do you think we are missing from our blogs” her response “paid Subscribers, 19.99 a minute’ that girl is going to kill me one day. Seriously within minutes every day spent with her I end up choking with laughter, that she then panics because she doesn’t know how to dial 911 for Australia. I keep telling her its 000 and she just laughs at me. Right now she is looking up cheap flights in the UK…why? God only knows, she is just fixated on the fact that they have them lol.
DeLa recently released the Letti cowl neck sweater dress, and while as a dress this is gorgeous, it is killer as a seperate as well. So mixing the upper or lower portions with other pieces, I had a great time. So much of course that I ended it in the blue/choc combo because it is so cute I don’t want to change. I am wearing it in the beige as is, then with the pinkupper only with the new ripped low rise jeans from Nyte n Day, a recent release that are just great. The lower part, which really works well even with a jacket layer above, just a small pull down on the skirt prim, I am wearing with the GORGEOUS Season Sweaters from Fri.day, first with the belt that comes with the dress, and then secondly with the pashmina belt from Veschi that is at The Dressing Room blue for a short time.
The collar on the season sweaters is just amazing, so pretty, and I would love to see this done as a dress, such a beautiful style, that needs more options. Lucky me that the Elsa boots from Surf Co have such similar contrast colour options as the sweaters, so they are a must with these. With all of the pics I am wearing hair by LoQ…relatively new to hair in the past year, such a great release at Hair Fair with the lace cloche’s, these newer styles are all win. The Brucella (black) is actually a special in colour packs on Marketplace for only 50L a pack, a steal, and if you join her subscribo you get another style free as well.
I am wearing Eva the new Glam Affair skin, but more on that soon 🙂
