THE dress, and holiday freebs

I've been waiting for a chance to wear this dress forever, and thanks to Second Style Fashionista, I was clued in to a gorgeous ballroom, inside the NBC build. So I had to flaunt this gown...it doesn't deserve to be stuck in my inventory, after all!




And while I was there, I found a ton of freebies by Aimee Weber...all sorts of mittens, hats and scarves. Since 'tis the season for gifties, here's a pic of some of the stuff out there this year:



Shirt/pants/candy cane and hair are freebies from GuRL 6 (and the shirt says "Dear Santa, I can explain..." :P). The mittens and scarf were from the NBC build (and yes, it's easier to get into now!), bundled in cute little boxes along the lines of Christmas trees.

(Yes, I wear pajamas outside all the time, I'm just that lazy. >.<)

If you managed to read to the end of this post, here's a LM to the most awesome Christmas park I've found in SL. Loads of decorations for very reasonable prices (and free stuff as well). I can't remember the name of the place, so deal.

Amused.

Well, what with the Dazzle and Simone sales of the last few months, my inventory has become something that I can only describe as "hazardous". I mean, if LL lost half of my inventory, I wouldn't know for months. Not to mention, my wallet (which unfortunately is pretty thin due to the holidays) is screaming "no mooooore...". So my condition for buying the last few dresses and outfits I've bought, was that I was going to get rid of some of my older items.

Since yard sales have become something of a nightmare in SL, I decided to be nice for a change. I packed five boxes with one formal and one normal outfit apiece. I mean, there was my first DeGroot formal in one of them...my Dazzle Christmas gown from last year (that was so hard to give up, I almost didn't, except I knew I wouldn't wear it again so I'd rather somebody got enjoyment from it. The girl that got it was wowed)...the Christmas formal I bought myself last year, where the designer was so kind and made me a custom skirt...the floofy gown I wore with Cullen to the first Blue Note Christmas dance...sigh. Memories.

Anyways, I offered them in a group I'm in to the first five new people that IM'ed me.

I swear, there was this calm of like 20 seconds in which nobody talked in group chat, and then it was chaos in my message box. I think I now have a slight idea of what designers go through...

Looking back in my group chat log, I noticed that somebody was having problems searching for my name. They ended up being the sixth person to message me, so feeling bad, I gave them one of my short dresses (that I loved but never had a reason to wear)...only to find out, I gave it to a guy. >.<

I begged him to send me a picture, but instead he blessed me with his company at my place for an hour and a half. He gushed over my home (which was a much needed pick-me-up :D) and we talked about art and clothes. And I made a new friend. :)


(And yes, he's wearing the outfit I gave him.)

These pictures hate the world.

I wanted to stop by Relic's Black Sand Beach, as I hadn't been there in awhile, and saw a notice that the place was being renovated. I can't remember if the cave was there before, but took some pictures in case it was going buh-bye.

It's wings...!

I was going to post this in LJ yesterday, but other events preempted my decision.

One of my friends - who's a constant, evil source of inspiration - linked me to a picture that I absolutely had to try and mimic in SL...

I loooove doing the fantasy pictures in SL...but don't expect many fairy pics. :P

This photo was taken in Svarga, one of the most amazing sims I've seen here.

But...but...LJ... ::sobs::

Sigh.

My Livejournal looks like ass in the new SL preview option, so I suppose I'll go over to the Dark Side for now...
