Just ride the wave

Something a little different today. I am featuring poses by [evoLove], which are available now at the ongoing round of Genre. Gave me a good reason to get into a bikini too!

I do want to point out that this bikini that I am wearing is not made to fit the Maitreya body. I had to make a body adjustment so that the fabric wasn’t hanging or going into my skin too much, though afterwards looked good enough to wear.

The head I am wearing is a new static head by Catwa, which is relatively inexpensive for $100 lindens. It comes as is without any expressions and no updates will be made available. You will have to buy a skin applier for both the head and body, which will raise your cost eventually. I’m not making changes to my regular head, but thought it be useful for blogging. I was fortunate to have a skin from some hunt and saved it just for this kind of purpose and I just worked with the skin sliders on the maitreya hud to get a close match.

Have a bang up St. Patrick’s.

The weekend was over much too quick and it seems the days are going much faster since the time switched or my body clock just needs a few more days to adjust. I popped into SL late last night to get this shot in to post today, having interrupted my ongoing rhythm of blogging daily over the weekend. It’s alright, it wasn’t a goal or anything. I find blogging helps keep my mind occupied and that in itself helps me relax, plus its fun dressing up and creating scenes and even more fun sharing.

St. Patrick’s holiday is right around the corner and when I think of a celebration it conjures up Irish dancing, music, shamrocks, wearing green and drinking Guinness. Aphrodite Shops wants to help you celebrate as well with this Irish Pub that comes equipped with 20 animations and 18 props, with many drink dispensers and St. Patrick’s decor. It also includes one of my favorite features in furniture today, and that is having the option and choice to change the wood, fabric and metal. Watch the video to see many of the animations that it contains to give you the ultimate role-play experience.

Speaking of role-play… poised with finger on the trigger… can I pass as a bond girl?

This weekend I am attempting to clean my inventory a little. It’s a huge mess as I have not really paid any attention to it in months. New purchases get swept into event folders and that’s how I manage to find things. It seems to be working so far, at least when I remember to make a folder right away.

Anyway, just a fun picture today of dresses and accessories I got through gacha at this last round of the Secret Affair. The event is now closed, but Junbug usually puts her gachas in the store afterwards.

The big day is just about here in a few hours where you can grab two for the price of one for the 21Shoe event that lasts only 24 hours. I am featuring the heels that will be offered by N-Core that are made to fit with the SLink medium feet and N-Core’s very own medium feet. The shoes come in black and a gold and the tips can be changed to be opaque or clear as I’m wearing. The slurls for each of the stores can be found at the 21Shoe website.

Have fun shopping for some great shoe bargains!
