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.

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.

Happy Anniversary Beulah
First off seeing as I am so slack and did not participate in the actual request…I wanted to aknowledge that it is the one year anniversary of Beulah Mills blog One thing at a time. A year is a huge achievement for any and all bloggers, it is that milestone that carries you into the nostalgic transition phase. You will question the way you blog, how you represent your blog, and what it is that you want to say or do with your blog. Beulah has always represented herself as one classy lady, the Manager of Ivalde and a very professional person. I have had dealings with her over the years both work related, blog related and more recently friend related…though we don’t talk that often, she is always so kind, and really lovely to know, and an incredible right arm for her Boss, with whom she is loyal like crazy for. Happy Anniversary Beulah and I hope that you see many more.
A stunning recent release of hair from Exile, these styles made me happy happy joy joy. Especially Crissy which is the updo that has two versions, one with bangs and this one without, I think both styles are fun, but I do adore the without more. Jennifer is the hat hair and we all know I love my hat/hair, this one is super fun, the style of hat is creative, and straw with different colour options is all win. The 3rd style Mella is a very flouncy curls style, not exactly beachwear style, but in this case, I only got into the water as high as you can see on the dress.
How fun is that, I have an old tshirt from a freebie box back in 06′ that is wet look, and I cannot throw it away lol, but the tank dress from deetalez may make that possible to do. You need something to cover up the mini micro kini, so little and leaves nada to the imagination. I am wearing the jolie pied feet from SLink, they recently sent out an update on these, so if you didn’t get yours, maybe check your inventory or ask the creator, these are the mid ones, that are partially on point, not sure if it was all of them.
The skin I am wearing is from Amacci, the skin is a recent release and as usual comes with a huge array of options. Cleavage, hairbases, and a hair bun for wearing the base with, so pretty too. I am only showing a few of the make ups available, there are 16 in all, so make sure you check out all the demos.

Alice, Alice who the bleep is Alice
I had an awesome night tonight, first off tping around different places with Newdoll and Whimsy. It was like old times, we were just missing Ashia and Justice, hopefully next time. We ran by the Artilleri SALE, making lots of OH NO SHE ISN’T sounds to eachother in skype, about items that are going to be discontinued. The upside is that it means more room for newness, and as we had most of everything, we are excited.
If you have some alts in need of a make over, now is the time though, 60L skins and all of the clothing is around that price too, male stuff also. I was excited about what I was going to post today, due to the new poses out by aDORKable, not only did they nail the sorts of sets that always are a much needed style, but they are including mirrors of every pose from now on, and even going back to change older ones. The fun that can be had with mirror poses is awesome, and even though they have been around before in other stores, they are the first to my knowledge to include them at no extra charge, so thats more bang for your buck WOOHOO.
Going all Brownzilla in the first pic, the oversized tote is fantastic and available from Addict @ Call for Couture – not many days left of that event, so hurry up. The chained necklace is also from there, and wow its a really beautiful one. hard to do lots of chain strands without them getting a tad messy and hard to edit, but this one fit straight away. Wearing another of the Swift hairstyles from LeLutka, this one is hat hair love, and comes texture change, so you can mix and match for days lol. The clothing is all deetalez, and I especially love the fabrics used to make each piece, lovely texture work, and really warm fabrics.
The next look gave me a chance to properly show off the Calypso slips from Eclectic Apparel. When I finally saw the slips come about, I knew exactly what style top I wanted to wear under, and even though I had older ones, this one I got yesterday is perfect. Adding the Lucid belt from Fri.day you would have your work cut out for you trying to get me out of this look. traveling up to the newish hair from Magika, Josie, and yes I sang that song all day of the release, I had actually read a comic of Archie and Josie and the Pussycats doing a battle of the bands a few days prior, so that didn’t help lol. I was loving the black and white, but a splash of red in the streaks, lips and bases of the fabulous ankle boots from G’field, these are also a release at Call for Couture and so lovely.
We ended off the night at the Albero Gatcha Festival and I probably could have spent every cent I had at the Theosophy one, because those bags are AWESOME. Make sure you get some, and if you get two Alice ones Newdolly wants one desperately.

There is a giant bunny back there
Another fine item at Call for Couture is this LBD, the skirt has that fullness that is achieved by letting the flexi prims sit atop a system skirt. Not a new concept for many of our veteran designers, but one that may not have been seen as an option by newer ones. Give it a whirl, as you wont be able to stop yourself.
The outfit is the Pret a Porter item from Chantkare, it is designed as an all in one look, but has been put together well enough to wear as individual pieces, which is always a bonus when buying such a bold look, as you don’t want to be only able to wear it once.
The Bracelet I am wearing is from AlaMood Boutique, one of their Jewelry Fair items, and I am sure will also be available in the store, as nothing was really mentioned about exclusives at the fair to my knowledge, so yay. The monotones work really well with this dress, but would also make a great addition to colour.
The hair I have on was the SLink released during hair fair, I really like this style, it is made well across the shoulders falling on both front and back, and not going into the shoulders, then again I think that may depend on shape, so be sure to demo demo demo.
I am wearing another Exodi skin Isolde Cachet, with hair base on as well, so many options in these skins, freckles, cleavage, light and dark brows, as well as tattoo hair bases in your base colours. The make ups are lovely and there is a huge selection. So again, Demo Demo Demo.

A post called Gidge
So yesterday I got TP’d by Fiachra, and accepted immediately – not like him, when I send one he IM’s me with all the who’s what, where and why’s pfft. So anyway, I landed and instantly crashed, due to my draw distance being at 512. But as I was crashing I went oooo I wanted to come here all week, so how fortunate is that.
Newdoll had done an incredible post on the latest Mia Snow skin releases on the concept of DÃa de los Muertos – Day of the Dead – and the skins are just gorgeous. So I came back after turning my draw down – you can do that before logging back in by the way, hit ctrl P at log in screen and your preferences open up. When I got back in my head id assumed there must be an S or something for Fia to TP me, as a big crowd was standing around, and so I started clicking on all the semi rezzed prims, only to have a message come up second later that I had won the exclusive skin in the mini mania machine. HOW COOL WAS THAT!
I love it so much, I may just have to go back for more, there are also some incredible Zombie sets there to check out with Halloween just around the corner. The latest styles from Frou Frou just totally work it, especially the demeter on the left which has such a sleek bob effect in a totally different way about it. Perched on top is the Macabre top hat by Ripe, who are at Jewelry Fair, their items are just adorable in a dark and glorious way, the hat is so cute, and modify, so I was able to tint it red in edit linked to get it to match my whole look. The Macabre jewelry on the right also comes with that wicked monocle which even though I already had I would have searched high and low for, because it was actually also in one of Mia Snows ads, and looks so damn cool.
The Clothing I am wearing is from Call for Couture, and wow is that ever going to be an event and a half. The style on the left from Malt and on the right from Baby Cakes, perfect for the skins and hair, as the skins make up went so well with Malts Red and Black dress which because of all the layers can be broken up into perfect seperates, and then you have the Baby Cakes on the right with the adorable bronze trim that goes so well with the autumn crown that comes with the Gigi hair, it can totally be worn without too, so you have lots of options.
The stunning shoes are from SLink and are their Pret a Porter item for Call for Couture, the style being a mix of stilletto and wedge, giving you the lines of both in such an open way. I love the concept of that, it kind of makes your feet breathe a sigh of relief that as high as they are, they have a solid enough foundation to dance the night away…I myself thought it and Whimsy said so too, that the toes part would be even cooler as an open option with toes, much like was done with boots by Slink in the past.
Jewelry fair opened today, and yay for the grid going down, always a great sign for an event as big as this, means it will be a huge success. Much like how it rains every Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras in Sydney and then stops just moments before it begins lol.
Call for Couture opens on Sunday, so stay tuned because both events have so many incredible items I will be sharing over the duration.

Popfuzz and the Concrete Flowers
So I was out with Fiachra looking at Prefabs and was half focused on what was in front of me. Thinking that it was Fia in front of me, his response in voice was ‘No I am not wearing a Berry covered in Cupcakes as a bag”, if something is going to make you sit up and zoom in, that would be it.
Loving Inspect as much as we do, you know that right click on a prim attached to a person, and hit inspect which then gives you creators name etc, I was off and running to the store Concrete Flowers. The backpack that I got a quick glimpse of and was able to inspect in time was fantastic, makes me wish I had done more with my cupcakes – might just have to now – but alas as much as I combed every inch of the store I could not find the Berry/Cupcake Backpack…if it exists somewhere else, please let me know as it is so cute.
But equally cute is the Num Yum Strawberry Backpack by Concrete Flowers, don’t you just love that name. The texture and detailing on this bag is just great, and fun to wear..it is really inexpensive too, and some of the items in this store are WOAH out there lol, so make sure you check them all.
The New Nadia dresses by Popfuzz that I showed you the other day in the baby pink for RFL come in 13 rich colours. When changing back and forth something wonderful occured to me, the ability to use the prim collar, and cuffs in a contrast way, means that you get so much more for your moola. The fatpack is an insane price, so if you like more than two buy it as a fat pack, you will save money.
A quick trip to HCT this week had me realising that Babyboo has added to the dollarbie wall, now way back when this style was released myself and a friend nearly broke our necks trying to get to it. I have tinted the prims on Nice as they do come white,pink and black originally, but all colours in this style for only 1L is awesome.
I know I am starting to look very festive in this red and green get up, so to finish off that Elfy mood I am wearing the Heavy Metal boots in Ivy by Royal Blue. They are lovely little ankle boots with a lot of strap and buckle detailing.
Have you noticed my ample cleavage yet?.Not only is that due to the fabulous Nadia dresses, but also the incredible Indulgence Skins by Popfuzz, they are a new skin line not yet released by Popfuzz, but as a special Gift to all that join her Subscriber Service it can be yours, the skins come in all tones as a Gift – 9 of them to be exact – and also have the Cleavage enhancement Skin included.
What a gift and what a skin, to get yours all you have to do is go to the Popfuzz Main Store, click on the subscriber in the doorway, and then click on the Gift Skin box next to it. Make sure that if there are many people trying to do so that you wait paitently to subscribe, too many trying at once may not work.
Feeling very Referee like in this mixing of the white and black Nadia dresses – Fia said I can’t be because I am not stripey – but either way I am loving this look, I could play like this forever with these incredible dresses.
The Diva heels are from Tesla and were just perfect for this look, the LuLu Tube socks are a must have from LuLu by Celestial Studios store, which all this time I have not realised was relocated to a seperate part of the sim, so an extra Slurl has been added under L on my page, as you know I am a huge fan of the skelly socks in the past, well that sock collection just expanded when I went to get the new slurl, at only 30L a pack of three pairs they rock.
Also Starley has been spring cleaning, and in doing so has added a new section to her CS store, a discount section filled with Hair, Manicures, Clothing and Shoes.. all the items are incredibly affordable and lets just say PANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNTS .
Another of the fab 1L styles from HCT is the Mariela hair , a lovely lush pony style.
While changing back and forth to come to some decision on what colour contrast to do next it suddenly hit me. The perfect shoes for the Nadia dress are in fact the Marie shoes by Tesla, the two tone mary jane t strap style, that comes in such a huge contrast arrangement, that I think every colour in the Nadia can do.Just so that it is in type and I cannot deny it, I actually really like this purple so wanted to be sure to show it as one of the many beautiful colours in the range, still cranky there is no grey though. Also with the dress I am wearing the Tintable Stockings from Popfuzz, that I have tinted in appearance mode to a goldish colour, matching the dress and prims really well.
Bringing more pazazz to the look is the Funk 80’s Bangle from CORE, this is a stacked bangle look that is in fact mod, so resizing was cake. The stacked look is fun, and when you have bare arms in a dress like this one, adorning them with something as fun and printed as this is great, also it comes on both right and left attachments, so you can decide which one works better for you.
Speaking of what works best, the Joh hairstyle by SLink is another New Release, a Unisexy style that looks just as delish on boys as girls. Using the slick SLink hud to texture change dependant on what you purchase this is so easy to just change colours when needed rather than reattaching a new wig.
The style is lovely , but definitely a bit on the oo la la side when you follow the line of that strand at the front, if you have to start telling who you are talking too to raise their eyes to yours, don’t blame them blame the line of this wonderful hair, oh and um Popfuzz’s Skin lol.
This is the perfect chance to demo this new skin release coming soon, do not miss out on these incredible Indulgence Gift Skins by Popfuzz, they will not be staying put for long.

Relay for Life Clothing Fair – SLink, Fleur, VR Foundry, CKS Designs, Adam n Eve, SySy Designs
Roslin Petion of Fleur always has this insane ability to catch me on a posestand, it used to be not so strange as I was pic taking all day for a long time, but the last few times it has been bloggers fate for sure.
I was one pic in and as soon as I saw the New Shoujo skins I knew I had to start over.
The post today is items that are featured at this years Relay for Life Clothing Fair 2009. HERE Is a list of all the sims and the stores that are featured on each one, tomorrow is the last day, so make sure you head on over.
This first dress is the VR Foundry Relay for Life item, during the fair; the money from each sale of the Deep Red Fantasy Dress will go to Relay for Life. So many people I know, and people I have come across just loved the Black Fantasy, so to have such a deep and gorgeous Red available now is a MUST HAVE!, but I have been informed that there are other colours to come soon as they have been requested by all the Fantasy fans.
The Deep Red Fantasy Dress comes with not only the long and sexy dress, but also the sheer crossover straps teddy which you can wear seperately and is just a lovely extra. The other extra and something I wear often with pants, shorts whatever, is the incredibly delicate belly chain that comes with the Fantasy dress. So remember all sales during the fair of this dress in the deep red will go to RFL.
The hair is an older style from ETD but so elegant, and is the Anisa style, ETD is still under construction but soon to be re-opening.
This is not one of the New Fleur Skins but an older one, the Vivant Lalique which is so sultry and the perfect colour blend for this dress, there are many beautiful deep make ups at Fleur, the newer ones are very light and incredibly delicate, sooo gorgeous but I wanted to wear this one for this dress.
The Medalion Set of Earrings and Bracelet, and the Burgundy Hair Rose are all by Essentia, and well you know I think they are Must Haves, there are DEMOS at the Essentia Main Store.
The Shoes I am wearing are brand new today, they are the Caged Platforms by SLink, and as they are SLink shoes that means they have feet. Since the Glamour Shoes I have shown in the past SLink shoes have gone even further in the HUD additions.
Motivated by how VR Foundry Posestand HUD has two sides that rotate depending on need, the Omni HUD that comes with the SLink Shoes now flips around to give so many more options, and WOW what options. Not only do you get the tintable skin options for the feet, but there are so many incredible extras for the shoes.
Lockable Feet is an option that is similar to the Boot Fixer, giving the ankles an animation keeping them in place so that straps and the tops of the sculpted foot don’t interfere with your stylish look. But not only lockable ankles but also now the addition of Pointe, so that those that are going with the bare foot look from SLInk can kneel or sit coyly and it will only enhance the experience.
More metal options for the incredible prim work of the Caged Platform Heels themselves, and the amazing detailing up the front of the foot into the straps. More Toering options for left and right or without. A huge assortment of toepolish colours, as well as the addition of Nail Art for the larger toes.
Now also with the addition of stocking toes, for when tinting feet to match stockings or pantyhose you may be wearing, now I am not a huge fan of open toed and stockings, but in some cases it is acceptable it depends on the shoes, but the fact you can do it rocks lol. There is also a slider resizer for those that don’t want to feel that size 0 feet is the only option.
The prim work as stated is just incredible on these shoes, each part of the cage work is individual primmage, and it really shows the dedication that Siddean has to making our feet feel treasured and pampered.
I have seen people in chat – which makes me cringe – comment on the negatives of prim toes/feet etc, and it is always about how hard it is to tint them etc, just remember something very very important, you cannot get them 100% spot on, because every single skin uses different methods to reach the desired tones, every single person in SL is seeing SL differently than you, it will never matter if you are all using the exact same WL settings unless you have the same pc with same graphics and same exact lighting RL you will see things differently.
ALSO and this is the most important part, no ones feet are the exact same shade of skin colour as their legs lol, we spend so much time with our feet inside of shoes, that it is natural for them to slightly differ, just like our torsos don’t match our arms. So lighten up on yourself and others, and just enjoy the pretties, because otherwise you will either send yourself balmy trying too hard , or you will miss out on the fun of having sexy shoes.
Popfuzz released this Nadia Dress recently and this tight and sexy number is in pink for RFL Clothing Fair , there are a huge range of other colours available but the sale of this one will go to RFL during the fair.It has a zippered front that if it was RL you would have to pin on the inside to ward off any lecherous zipper attacks lol, or not, depends on if you like suddenly baring all.It is tight, tight, tight, and in true Popfuzz style it has taken into account any issues with the system templates, Popfuzz has added prim sleeves to the dress and even though it looks like they arent there at all, that is the point, they are purely to neaten up the template line of the sleeve, she goes above and boyond with all her creations that way.
There is a super kinky Naughty Nurse Nadia dress costume also for sale, not for RFL.. that is a special complete set including skins that you need to check out also, I will be showing that another day.
The Skin I am wearing is the Shoujo by Fleur in the Boutique Azalea tone, the make up is number 5 and there are 6 make ups in total for this release that is due out tomorrow. As per usual the bodies of the skins are soft and romantic, with all of the delicate features that you love from Fleur skins.
The faces of the Shoujo skins are just lovely, so pretty in features, and soft and alluring. I really love this new range of make ups too and they worked perfectly with the range of clothes I was shooting, so timing is everything.
The hair is another New release by SLink or recent release, the Lorelei hair is a long tail style with different bands traveling up the tail itself, keeping such a thick tail tame. The hair at SLink also comes with an incredible hud to change textures with giving you so much range with the one wig, the bands also have texture change capabilities.
I of course had so much fun changing Toenails and metal features with the Caged Platforms, also by SLink, DEMO DEMO DEMO.
One ofthe Must Haves with the New Shoujo Skins is the New Stella Dress by CKS Designs, Kit being a huge fan of all that Fleur does it was a no brainer on reshooting. The Stella dress is a mid thigh asymetrical Cocktail dress, that comes in this lovely pink cherry colour for RFL.Other colours are also available at the fair, and this is only one of the RFL items on offer by CKS Designs. The foral look adornment on the dresses one strap can be worn with or without, both ways looks great, and the strappy back is definitely inviting trouble, what man can resist straps lol.
With the Stella dress I am wearing the Love Song Necklace from Sable Rose, the colours in this lovely necklace just enhance the whole romantic look. The Jacquie hair is another style from SLink and I really like the Jackie O style updo, this is not the first retro look style with a Jackie O name that has come out of SLink, so I am seeing a real vintage influence in her style.
The lips on Shoujo are just wonderful, had to share that observation, coz I like so totally paused then.
Another Incredible Relay for Life item is the Marblelous Gown from SySy Designs, very steam punky in texture, this gown has such a lovely essence about it. The colour scheme has this mix of leather against bare skin kind of feel to it, but you are completely covered… a bit naughty if you ask me.
I love how this looks with the innocent look of the Shoujo Spring 4 Make Up, the blush on the cheeks giving it a demure and bashful look, where with the illusion of the dress can be incredibly striking. The Marbelous gown also comes with the wonderful beaded choker, featuring a soft flower at the front, a great piece that you can wear with many other pieces in your inventory.
The Ashley hair by SLink has so much more going for it than I captured in the picture, a lovely braid amongst the loose bun style, you will need to check out the DEMO for yourself, a fabulous transition style which can move from casual all the way to formal, and everything in between.
Make sure you pay attention to the wonderful Eyes I am wearing in todays post, these are the Chemistry Grey Eyes from PanJen , very beautiful and we all know how much I loves my grey. While you are checking out the eyes, make sure you grab all her lashes as well, they are amazing.
Lastly not a RFL item, but featured at the fair this year is the amazing Glamour Gown by Adam n Eve. This gown has three skirt options, the full gown as shown and a micro mini and flexi mini. The gowns that come out of Adam n Eve are always so amazing, this is no exception.The colour for a start is remarkable, the shading and detailing on the bodice of the dress is superb. My favourite part as I am sure it will be everyones is of course the sequin effect across the breasts, thats almost a blend of silver and gold, which I just love.
The Jewelry I am wearing is from Primagine, a set that is by name Everyday, but in this incidence could be called Special Occasion. Beautiful craftmanship on these pieces, the heart featured on earrings, necklace and bracelet is just lovely with its Diamond insert, the bracelet is my fav of the pieces because it has that charm bracelet quality I love, all the pieces tie in so well with the gown.
Make sure you do not miss out on the items at Clothing Fair, it ends tomorrow so you do not want to miss out, and even if you have been already, give it a whirl again, you may find something that you missed the first time.
Such an incredible cause, and so much hard work has gone into it, a big congrats to all that took part and a huge hug for all those that ventured over with the right frame of mind.
Don’t forget also the Shoujo Spring skins will be released Sunday 22nd so make sure you DEMO up a storm.
