The Sybil Yay! Lumae is participating in another round of The Avenue, where designers offer past creations at a steep discount. This time, Lumae has put out all 8 of the Ruby - Bare skins (exclusive for Catwa) for just L$245 per tone. Each shade of this gorgeous skin comes with bare and freckled versions, multiple cleavage options, and 6 choices of eyebrows, PLUS a heap of body appliers. I always, always say to demo first, but if you're a sucker for freckles like I am, this sale is a no-brainer! Also by Lumae is this lovely headchain called Persephone, which can be found at the Ostara's Altar event. Each metal color is l$150, and the fatpack is L$495. Also included is a pretty crown of roses, and a HUD for the gemstones and roses. Another thing you don't want to miss is the sale at Elikatira! They seem to do this sale seasonally, but it's always great to be able to grab hair packs for L$75! I went and snatched up a few more hairstyles, including the h...

A Series of Delicate Moments Post 3 of 4 for Lootbox One of my favorite things to do in SecondLife is to find a quiet place with beautiful landscaping. I'm always looking for spots for upcoming photos, but more than that I LOVE when a forest is designed well. I love exploring them, and finding hidden little things about them. It helps me take a break from my staggering to-do list, and just appreciate the skill and beauty that creators pour into the unique experience that is SL. Hopefully my photos show that, so that you can share in my quiet moments with me for a little while! For this photo, my avatar is sporting the rare bodysuit from the Storybook machine at Lootbox. This machine is COST and SIZES. Though you have to win the rare to get the bodysuit, as per usual with Storybook items, I didn't raise an eyebrow because it's so well made! Sometimes the cost really is justified by the craftmanship. The bodysuit comes with an 8 color HUD, which is mostly solid m...

Aquarian Post 2 of 4 for Lootbox It's been over 24 hours since my last post,so you know I've just been bursting to show off more pretties! And the Ranger Cloak in the Lootbox from the .AiShA. machine *is* so pretty! I know that technically the set is named Ranger, but the ornate details and high collar just screams spellcaster to me, so I ran with that idea. Also, as a bonus, the new Celia boots bu Blueberry, found at Shoetopia, are a perfect match for the teal tunic from the .AiShA. machine, too! So I just had to talk myself into buying them, too... poor me! The Ranger set is for Maitreya sizes only, and is L$75 per pull, and features 2 Lootbox options (a bow & leg quivers, or the cloaks), 9 common tunic colors, and two color versions of the shorts. All of the tunics are worth owning, and you can switch the trim between black and brown for each as well. Overall the set is well-made and fits great! Credits below! Body - Maitreya  "Lara" ...

Archangel Post 1 of 4 for Lootbox Yet another event that always makes my wallet a LOT lighter! I love when Lootbox comes around. Hosted on The Fantasy Collective sim, it does indeed have a heavy fantasy element to it. And you know when fantasy and gacha combine that I'll be there! The first set I want to talk about from this round is The Wilds by Alchemy. To get this Lootbox exclusive outfit in full (horns, outfit, boots, staff, and fox companion), you have to win all 3 of the rares in the machine. Since the lootboxes themselves disappear once the round is over, never to be sold again, TRUST ME it's worth it to play! This machine only comes in Maitreya sizes and is 75L a pull, but it's very popular and extremely well-made, so I imagine resellers will find a bit of success with this one! That means that if you do miss out, keep your eyes peeled in yardsales and on the Marketplace for some steals! Credits below! Body - Maitreya  "Lara" H...

  Circe Come to my island Let me feed you Keep me company I had been keeping an eye out for this gorgeous draped tunic by Jackalope for some time (even cammed into the event before it was open to grab a demo, shhh!) ... and then in the excitement of Skin Fair opening, FORGOT to come back to the anyBODY event and grab it! I went ahead and got the fatpack for L$1200 because I love it so much, but otherwise each of the 10 color options is just L$200. Also essential to this look are the Catwa exclusive skin "Ella" by Lumae, available for a discounted L$495 per tone at Skin Fair 2017, and the gorgeous "Wytch Palette" by Alaskametro which is a STEAL at L$75, also at Skin Fair.

Wytchcraft I am always thrilled when new gothycute items come out. In this instance, I found the perfect skin, makeup, and outfit. The Wytch palette by Alaskametro goes great with the new Ella skin by Lumae (both found at the Skin Fair), and Moon Elixir won my heart again with their gorgeous robe and bodysuit set, now out at Mesh Body Addicts Bi-Monthly. Also out at Skin Fair are stunning eyes by .Euphoric, and I can't get enough of them!  *A bit about the blog* Spring is an intense time for events! Between making sure I get the things that I *ahem* need and some RL busyness, I haven't had as much time for socializing, outings, hunts, and the like. Hopefully soon I can find some spare time and start blogging about other things that I enjoy in SecondLife. If nothing else, I really want to do more interviews with creators, since I really enjoyed sitting down with the owner of Lumae a couple of days ago. So stick with me and keep checking back, this blog is only going to ...

Feral I finally got that rare Tableau Vivant hair from The Arcade that I wanted! (L$75 per pull, but editorial hair! Totally worth it.) So, of course, I had to use it in a picture A.S.A.P. It goes perfectly with this muzzle by Ama. (just L$99 at the Tie Me up event!) for a sinister, dangerous look. The new Ella skin for Catwa by Lumae (just released at the Skin Fair 2017 today! Just L$495 per tone with a tone of body appliers) suits my head perfectly, too! So... um... RAWR.

 Off to Market I love when my favorite events run at the same time! We <3 Roleplay just started and is running until the end of the month, and the Arcade is still going as well! Both have something for everybody- whether you're a human, a demon, or somewhere in between like me.  So I've been running around like crazy, and my coin purse it noticeably lighter for it.
