This lovely dress is a group gift from {u.f.o} … It’s called “We love spring”, and since I too love spring, I love this dress! Beautifully made, full of details and just adorable.

[Umeboshi] has released a new range of eyes called Pearl. I got the blue set that comes with four different tones, have a look …

They also have the Daenerys tone out as a group gift!

So.. a couple of gorgeous gifts up for grabs. Enjoy!

I love it when new events pop up .. this time is the much talked/blogged about The Chapter Four. It basically combines 4 of the most popular events on 4 different rooms; gachas, under L$100, 2 x 1 and 50% off. New rounds will start the 4th of each month and will run for 15 days.

I tried my luck on a couple of gachas and the result is what you see. A lovely blue sweatshirt from Ionic and stunning green eyes from [UMEBOSHI]. However, I will not stop until I get the blue ones …. I’m kinda obsessive. I really loved the sweater, it’s perfect for a chilly spring night or afternoon to spend some time in the garden. Mine is still just grass, as you can see, but it’s still a work in progress

Anyway, in other news … FreshFace has opened their store in-world and you can now go and demo all the gorgeous skins they have, yay! I’m wearing Lily in Natural for the picture above. Lily is available in four tones, with/without cleavage and with appliers for your Lolas, check her out:

Al Vulo! has a new group gift up for grabs. Aisha has a lovely tanned skin tone which is perfect for any summer look. I have to say, I’m really loving the sweet pink lips too!

Today I went to [Umeboshi] and won this adorable print from their lucky board. They have 5 boards with eyes, glasses and prints, it’s for group members only but the group is free to join.

I also played the gacha they have in-store (L$30 a go) for the Tyki glasses and won the Happy Bird style, they’re super cute!

The eyes are from *YS&YS*and are available at the Dressing Room Fusion. They have 3 packs for sale – each with 6 colours. I don’t buy eyes very often but I thought these were really well made and I couldn’t really resist them.

In case you haven’t heard yet, Truth is having a hard to resist sale. I braved the lag and the masses of bargain hunters and got me some new styles (yay!). Single packs are only L$75, fatpacks L$750 and retiring styles are a mere L$35. So, now is the time to go wild and get *all* the styles you want!

Quick tip: If you can’t get into the store, TP to the sim next door Truth District and stand just in the border. You can zoom into the store and buy more at ease.

I’m wearing the lovely knit top from Drift that’s available in the current round of TDR Fusion. It’s very spring-like and it comes with a HUD to change the top into 2 other different colours; pink and blue. I found the mesh shorts while browsing the Marketplace – pretty sweet for just L$10, huh?

I am also wearing another gorgeous skin from Fresh Face – Isabelle comes in four tones and it has a very subtle purple eye shadow with soft pink lips, an ideal summer look!

More flowers … I just can’t stop! This lovely dress from Milk Motion is up for grabs on the current TDR Fusion. I love the contrast of the turquoise belt against the red fabric and the length makes a great change from the mini dresses I usually wear.

I’m also wearing the new Charlotte skin from Fresh Face. This sweet skin comes in 4 tones (snow, natural, olive and caramel) with 2 cleavage options, appliers for Lola’s Tangos and a mod shape. Charlotte has a really subtle and a very *fresh* young look, it really goes well with everything – just have a look!

Hello again!

I don’t know about you guys, but March’s Collabor88 has been my favourite so far. I just love flowers and anything that’s pastel colour and, well, last month’s collection just nailed it.

I visited Collabor88 earlier today to make sure I hadn’t missed anything before they change everything for the April collection and was shocked to find I had -somehow- missed Nylon Outfitters the last time I visited. I fell in love with ALL the colours available but managed to settle for the mint and yellow one.

I particularly like that you can choose whether or not to use the lace shirt on top – it looks adorable either way. So anyway, do make a final stop before they close it to get it ready for April’s collection.

In other news, a new round of TDR Fusion started a few days ago and Essences has put out the beautiful skin Opera Chic in two tones (Light Rose & Sunkissed) for L$70 each. I’m a sucker for skins without much (if not any) make up so I can mix and match colours I want to use and this skin is just perfect for that – and it is gorgeous too.

Each tone comes with 4 eyebrow colours (Blonde, Brunette, Brown -not pictured- and Ginger), 6 blush options and cleavage.

Wedges: Mon Tissu – Openwork Wedges (Mustard)

Finally, this song has been stuck in my head for days now, so I thought I’d share it with you too! Enjoy ♥
