Uptown Girl

I headed out to the city today to do a little shopping and maybe grab a bite somewhere. How’s your Saturday?

While I do have a host of vehicles I love to drive around, nothing beats the subway for getting around when you’re in a big metro area. And in my pixel life, no one is pooping on the floor during my ride so that’s a plus!!

I’m hitting the town in this adorable new headband from SparkleSkye for the Saturday sale. It comes in vivid or pastels and it’s really just too cute to pass up. I hope you hop over there to get it.

Conversation Hearts

I have a deeply etched love for creators who tell you what the free gift is that they’re giving away at events. Today I’m celebrating three of these champions from Shop & Hop who pulled me in with their cute offering.

Why does it matter so much what your free gift is? Well, technically it doesn’t. But I don’t want to pick up a bunch of random stuff, honestly. I look at free gifts as a chance to check out your work for free, and I do go back and patronize those folks whose work I like. No one owes me a free gift, and I do truly appreciate them. But those champs who show what the items are – well you’re the true MVP folks.

These conversation heart jeans are a great example. While I was wandering through this booth, I saw them and my first thought was “Man, I wish those were the free gift!” and holy shit they were!

Are the seams perfect down the side? NO. It was FREE I don’t really care that they don’t dork around with the texture to match it up in this instance. The waist and the button, fly etc look fine and honestly it’s conversation heart jeans – so cute. I’m not too precious to sweat the seam on this.

My sweater is a little fuzzy but I like to think that’s because it’s cashmere. Right?

Free shoes, shirt and pants courtesy of find folks at Shop & Hop. I need to finish my run through it tomorrow to see what other goodies can be found!

I Love Samples

I ran out and about today to grab a few things at the grocery and I was just tickled to see that JUNK FOOD has food samples, just like the RL grocery story on a Sunday. Sample of this, bite of that, I confess I always end up buying things I don’t particularly need just because I sampled it and now I feel compelled to thank them for the free sample.

A sample of roasted corn – are you KIDDING me? Ridiculous. I love roasted corn.

Yes, now I have to buy some.

I was feeling a bit silly when I left the house today, and was out and about in an old BAIASTICE swimwear combo with some fun pearls from Yummy. I’m all vintage except my hair today. That’s really the test though, isn’t it? If things still are cute years later, you know they were an awesome investment.

I was feeling a bit silly and did pick up a new car. I love this new ride from MadPea. It’s got a very Barbie Girl asthetic that I appreciate.

After all, I’m an unapologetic Barbie Girl.

Hope your Sunday is full of wonderful things. Till next time Girls!

Out With The Old

Well we’ve kicked off early and if I’m honest we’ll be lucky to see midnight in any time zone as early as we’ve started but hey – we don’t even care.

I hope we all make 2022 a better year, no matter what nonsense is thrown at us.

If you are looking for some cute free glasses for your NYE part these are available at YUMMY . FREE! My favorite. This delicious champagne you can pick up today at FLF over at What Next. It’s normally a right hand bento hold but I had to move it for this stupid pose just FYI.

Happy New Year’s Eve my lovelies.

Time For The Superb Owl

We’re ready for football kick off today. After all it’s time for the Superbowl this evening and that calls for food and booze in excess. It’s always this time of year that you get the people who like to tell you about how they’re above watching the Superbowl and like to put it down with little snarks about “the sports ball game” or whatever.

We get it. You don’t like football.

The thing is, shitting on things people enjoy doesn’t make you cool. You aren’t edgy or interesting because you don’t like a thing that a lot of other people like. I don’t like a lot of things that other people think are great. You know what – great for them! Glad they enjoy it. I don’t go online to make a point about how I don’t like the thing.

It’s tiresome. We get it. You’re so above it all.

I do think the Superb Owl is a bit funny though. So this isn’t a total rant.

I’m sure whomever is selling these tees on marketplace paid the NFL right? I mean, logo infringement and all.

If you’re buying these – get the black one. The white one is made like crap. They’re the same price.

SL17B

I had an inauspicious landing at SL17B as the landing point i chose dropped me right in the middle of some pool inside a building of some sort. It never rezzed to the point that I could figure out if it was a temple, or some sort of memorial or what it was I was trapped in. I finally managed to climb out, irritated to say the least but as always, I wanted to love SL17B.

It’s like the sims on SL17B were planned and put together by people who never once had to plan or lay out an event. There is some sort of joyous “cram everything together and who cares how it looks” planning that seems to go on. What this ends up meaning for us mortals not rocking the greatest gaming computer is that it is lag hell, and rendering hell. Is that a rocket ship? Is that a rock? Is that a cyclops? I’ll never know. It never rezzed.

It’s hard to put down the amazing and inspired vignettes our fellow citizens make though. There’s so much joy and creativity, little activities scattered through out to make you smile and let you enjoy the view. Sometimes maybe it’s ok if things aren’t perfect, if you can still enjoy the fun of it.

I stumbled in to a poetry cafe, where we were invited to sit and then touch the photo of the poet we were interested in. I was handed a copy of Maya Angelou’s Poem “I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings” which was poignant to me in light everything going on out in the world.

There are some amazing builds, beautiful vignettes to take photos or just play and enjoy your SL. It’s worth the lag and slogging through the mess of it, it really is. There are gifts that are amazing and you can find those in concentrated gift areas. There’s also a shopping area – shop and hop or something or other. You can locate them all here at this link.

Have you gone? You need to go.

After all – there is a free Kittycat! Always a win.

There was a lot more to see and do – obviously one place was giving out a horse to ride, which I found to be delightful. There is a trolley but I could never manage to get on it – i find that confusing. I waited a ridiculous amount of time – let me tell you. It kept going! There is also a drive in movie which LOOKS great but doesn’t work – it says you can click on the screen to start it but it just craps out.

Regardless of these quibbles – SL17B will only come once and this is your chance. Get off your platform and go have some fun. Be ridiculous. Pick up the freebies. Come for the fun, stay for the lag.

In Murder City They Have a Cat

I went out Friday in search of some dinner and to take a look-see around the world. I love stumbling in to new places, finding things and meeting folks. Murder City ended up being a perfect place for an evening like that.

While there is a bit of the odd murder here or there, it’s a great spot for taking photos and exploring, lots of little things to find and do while you are there.

I grabbed a bowl of ramen for dinner and I do confess, I was surprised that it wasn’t poisoned or the cook didn’t stab me. I guess even murder city needs a spot for dinner in between the murders

After a bite I explored for quite a while. There’s a lot to see and find here – and I got to meet the owner who says she’s still building more so I am going to have to come back some time and check out what’s new.

I seriously love this cat you guys.

When it started to rain and murder definitely seemed more likely I decided it was time to head about to Bellisseria for some quiet. Before I headed out though, I decided to avail myself of this “touchless” pizza delivery option. After all, by the time I get home I’m going to be hungry, right?

I really hope this taxi is headed to Bellisseria…what’s that down this tunnel….

Life Gets In The Way

Life has been hectic, chaos even but this Saturday evening I’m spending quality time stalking the Lucky Chairs at Alaska Metro. It’s the fault of Kitty over at Kittywichin and so you see i’m not to be blamed. I nabbed this cute skirt almost immediately and now I’m stuck here waiting for the next cool thing.

What’s a girl to do anyway?

I’ve slapped on a new SLINK Visage head and I just have to say, there’s an odd comfort in not even worrying about what something looks like. I guess that’s just decades of quality work built up. I’m not sure it’s Gidge’s face yet but I new it would be pretty and it is. I have to try on others and decide who will be Gidge. It’s anyone’s guess.

Unicorn lips and eye shadow from Alaska Metro

Stalking Lucky Chairs, I’m retro chic this evening it seems.

Not Your Grandma’s Candystriper

"Summertime is always the best of what might be."
When I see pink and white stripes, I always think of the candystriper volunteers at the local hospital. This is, of course, not anything like a candystriper would wear, not if there was any hope of staying on the job. The blouse and heels were released at the June Uber event. 
"Summertime is always the best of what might be."
The blouse is from Baiastice and comes with the bikini bra and panties and belt that can all be changed by the HUD. 
"Summertime is always the best of what might be."
I chose “One Way or Another” hair from Exile, using the built-in Lelutka hairbase. One of the fun things to do with Exile hair is to look up the song the hair is named for just to see how well it fits. 
"Summertime is always the best of what might be."
These fabulous sandals from Baiastice can be customized with the HUD. The braided vamp could be sheer or opaque and all sorts of colors or patterns. The straps and heels can also be customized.
