Not only are hunts fabulous because of all the freebies, but the people you come across and SL fashion you see along the way. This cute little dress I snagged from a place I’d never heard of before because I saw another lovely little cartoon rocking a lacey petticoat skirt and had to check it out. So… there’s one measly hunt item in this post, but if you’re all stalked out, there’s plenty more to see! /me waves her arm all Vanna style.

Just getting back into the swing of things after the holiday hoopla as are the rest of you. Anyway, a quick post to get myself back into blogging things I love again. I fell in love with this skirt the second I saw it. The tulle texture up close is just the sweetest. Not a big fan of pink, but a color combination I love more than anything is blush with navy. Odd, but I think it looks yummy. It’s too bad my ring isn’t more visible with this pose. There isn’t one single thing I dislike from Sad’s. His jewels sparkle prettier than RL and he’s a super nice guy. This sim is one not to be overlooked by the explorers in some of you. Great for snapshots being that one can rez there and such pretty lighting and textures. (P.S. I don’t normally edit my snapshots for the blog, but I did lighten these a tad.)

You’re So Cold

This blog post started out entitled “Discombobulated” because I’ve used so many different pieces from a couple of different outfits and stores but! It came out so… err… “bobulated”, I didn’t think the name worked anymore. I love breaking up pieces and pulling just a layer or prim from one thing and adding it to another to create something different. Now with the capabilites of the latest Phoenix release, you can attach more than one prim to a point. Which means we can finally wear our gloves with our sleeves, rings with our cuffs, hats with our hair, glasses with our lashes, etc. without monkeying around and modding forever to make it work. Yay!
