I am hopeless!

I gave in to temptation and shopped again today! I bought some lovely hair from Boon and a few little things from The Sea Hole at the L$50 sale (only on certain items)

I had a set in my inventory from O'Bleak for ages called Bohemian Rapture which I loved but could not find a top that I really liked to wear with it - but at The Sea Hole I found a couple at 50L which I thought would work so here is the skirt with one of the tops and my new hair:



Close up of the hair:



And still wearing the hair I found some other things I liked in my inventory

Day 5 - inventory clean up

I was distracted from my mission to organise my inventory by this beautiful skin by Mother Goose in one of the many Lucky Boards at her shop. I stalked it for 2 days! But I think it is worth it - it is called Oyat. Actually I got the demo and I would have purchased one of these but it is only available in fat pack - but that comes with 3 shapes and loads of versions of this skin for 900L - so it is still a bargain ... I may give in to temptation next month when I buy more lindens :)



I did some inventory tidy and found the following:



Skin - Mother Goose - Oyat - LB
Hair - Lamb - Honey in Honeycomb
Skirt - Milk Motion - my short skirt
Boots - Bax - prestige boots in brown
Jacket - Maitreya - Camden Jacket
Arm Warmers - Mimikiri
Shirt - Equus - part of a dress
Necklace - Deco - essential pears in Winter Berries - Nov Group Gift
Poses - Modd.G - Made of Forrest Animals set - free
Hands - SLink

Mission to sort my inventory - Day 3

I have managed to get my inventory down to just over 20k - it's still a mess but it has been fun looking at some of the stuff I have - and wondering "Why on earth do I have this???" many times!!

I found a whole load of free stuff from the gift section at KMADD - a section where designers who have a space there put out some gifts. Most of it is for men - so why did I take them??? a. I seem unable to pass a free item without grabbing to take a look, and b. sometimes men's stuff works well for us girls too.

Anyway if you havent been there (especially if you have a male avi) it's worth a pop along to have a look. I found, in the stuff I had from the KMADD free section, teeshirts from Reek - the folder has both male and female :)




TeeShirt - Reek - Ohai girls tee Pink
Skin - Sunny Su Soon Skin - DevonAoki - free and really sweet
Teeth - Teethy from Tik Tok
Socks - SLink Pink Toe Socks with smiley faces - cute - but they have invisiprims that can't be turned off :(
Shorts - *H&K* Moon Bunnystar dot pants - these are from a whole outfit I got ages ago when I was doing a hunt
Hair - Mikan-hair - honey bunny - gacha 30L - and so cute
Panda Bean Bag - Pink Fuel

Delving into my inventory Day 2

Day 2 of my attempt to tidy my inventory - I have managed to delete a load of unwanted stuff - but it is still a disaster - this could take me weeks!!!

Anyway onto what I have pulled out today:





Skin - this was free from Mother Goose (or $1l) - Bini3 - I think it is a beautiful delicate skin - thank you Mother Goose <3

Hair base and hair attachment - Dekade

Eyes - poetic colors - Autumn Beach

Top - Tee*fy - part of Paito Dress Noir - I added the cuffs from Mimikri Suza Dress

Pants - CheerNo - Diamond is Mine Hunt

Shoes - Bare Robin - Stilletto Moody

Hands - SLink

Choker - SLink - Platinum Hunt Gift I think

Pose - Modd G - Made of Old Irregular Dreams set - free

Taking a deep breath and delving into my inventory!

I expect loads of you are like me in that we buy sooo many things, do hunts, get group gifties etc and never get around to wearing half the stuff in our inventory. My inventory management is non existant and my linden balance very low!

Sooo I have decided to make an effort to go each day into my inventory and make an outfit from things I already have - well this is the plan but I bet I still shop more!

Today here is what I pulled out of the wreckage:



The top is from Line - I got this at DU4 - I bought both black and white - have previously worn the white but forgot about the black!

The skirt is a group gift from Coco - Coco is a great group - many gifts and they stay up in store on a wall for ages so you dont miss them.

The shoes are Maitreya - shanti - I bought the fat pack at the 50% off sale and I do wear them a lot

The skin is from Dutch Touch - it is Yri in caramel - I was tempted to buy the V2 Joilie skins today - but I have them in the V1 in fat pack in 2 tones so I resisted. Anyway, it is possible to revamp skins now with all the wonderful makeups in tattoo layers :)

Talking of which I am wearing Glamorize soft smoke eyeshadow in soft gold and Glamorize eyeline in Supercat. Also wearing Cheap makeup lashes - tattoo layer and Prim Lashes by Glow Studio - innocent.

The hair base is from Dekade and so is the Hair Attachment

The lipstick is from Mynerva - Plum

The pearls are from Deco

The ring - I love this ring - is from Paper Couture and is called Water over Wine

Nails are from SLink

Eyes are from Poetic Colors

Pose is from Exposure

Pile Up!

I love lots of cushions and pillows to lounge about on so I adore this sofa from UrbanizeD that I bought at the new SL House and Garden Sim. The pillows are texture change and there is room for 3 avatars - 2 on the sofa and one on the little pile of pillows that comes with the sofa. This shade of fabric is called "Frozen"






I'm lazing about in my new undies from 50L Friday from 5th and Oxford and the new skin at The Dressing Room Blue from Mons.

Nails and feet are from SLink
Hair is from Boon

Fall to Sleep, to sleep perchance to dream ...

I had a busy day both RL and SL. I did manage to finish the seasons' hunt - well there were a few I couldnt find but I got most. I havent opened all yet - but from the ones I have some were great, others good and well some not good - but out of all the hunts I have done lately I think this has been the best for me.

Of course this last weekend has been full of great stuff - 50L F, PT (not so many good things for me in this PT but a couple) and Spruce Up Your Space Pt 2 for September. I keep meaning to tidy my inventory - but each time I start I lose the will to live!

Anyway a couple of pics:





The hair and hat is one of the prizes for The Seasons Hunt from Tiny Bird
Cardigan is from Pig for The Seasons Hunt
Scarf - omg I love it - is from Concrete Flowers from TSH
Skirt is from Casa Del Shai - 50L Friday
Boots are from SLink - Marina Boots in Tan - previous 50L Friday
Tights - Nerd - Ugly Duck
Skin - Plain Jane V2 from Mynerva
Glasses from Muism
Pose with leave from Olive Juice - they have a TSH prize too - but this is from a pack I bought


Then here are 2 of my favourite things from Spruce Up Your Space. Belle Belle has this adorable Mr Sandman - he sits on a shelf and when you want to sleep he sprinkles different scenes round your room - there are lots of scenes available - I am showing just one as an example. HE is only $150L

Also the sofa bed from Barcode - Grammas Pullout Sofa for Spruce Up Your Space - as I have set the picture really dark to see the Mr Sandman effects it is hard to see the sofabed - but it is cute:)



The picture was taken in the skybox from Tweedle from this weeks PT

Jolie Happy :)

If you look down a couple of posts ago you will see I blogged using Kunglers' Jolie Grape Dress Skirt. I had said I was a little sad as the top was only in Jacket layer - I love to layer. Anyway - Barbra Kungler IM'd me saying she has now added a shirt layer to the dresses!!! YAY. Also she very kindly sent me the dresses in all colours so double YAY!

Shown below is the Jolie Red Dress (the colours are more defined when you see the dress in SL - they are muted in this pic due to the curve effect I used in post processing)

I am wearing it with the cosy cardi from Reek for today's L$50 Friday and have included a back view without the cardi to show the pretty back of the dress. The dress also has shoulder prims which I am not wearing and the sleeve prims come in both up and down versions - I am wearing the "down" version.

Super SLink!

Ooooh have you all grabbed the SLink boots on today's Fifty Linden Friday tour? I did and just love them.

I know the new Aoharu shirts and skirts have been blogged all over - but they go so well with my new boots that I just had to wear them.

Also showing one of the lamb Fifty Linden Friday hairs - I do adore the new blonde shade - honeycomb - going to be shopping many more in this shade I think :)



Skin worn is Beth from Ugly Duck - just as well I have this one saved in many outfit folders as the original folder with the other skin style options for Beth has been eaten by SL ... grrrrr
