These are just some of the dresses I have textured. There are some more, but I think enough of the dresses already. If you're interested, here is the LM to FOREVER SUMMER.

And one last picture!
I have also been working on my building project. It's completed and all I need to do is take some decoration pictures and then pack it up. I'm calling it The Forest Hideaway Cabin because I imagine this house in a forest near a lake. Water is a must! And, it's only 40 land impact right now.

I have thought of adding some more details to the house, but then it would increase the land impact so I think I'll leave it as it is.

It's Friday here, so have a good weekend!

Sequin evening gowns

I made a few sequin evening gowns which looked like some shimmering snakeskin and so I called it Boa. I also finally got Moon a really beautiful diamond set with tiara!

Seasonal generosity

End of the year comes with a lot of generous and giving folks. With so many hunts going on the grid, events and groupgifts, I can't keep up.

hair: [LeLutka]-CHILL hair/FATPACK groupgift
skin: -Belleza- FLF Holly Skin
eyes: Mayfly Keshie Group Gift (Liquid Light Eyes - Forest Green)
jacket: *COCO*_FlightJacket_Black
top: *COCO*_TankTop_Black
jeans: *COCO*_SlimFitPants_Black
boots: *COCO*_RidingBoots_Black

*Coco* is giving away all of her outlet items for free until end of the year before she deletes all her sculpts. I think some of the sculpts still looks good and some items like the purses, even if they were sculpts, will still look good in photoshoots. Also, system tops and pants are sometimes a necessity when wearing certain mesh clothings.
Mayfly's green eyes goes so well with Belleza's FLF Holly skin and the red lipstick certainly brightens up gloomy days.

Have a good weekend!

Arcade shopping

I made it into the Arcade..... and blew my budget eventhough I didn't stay long. Everything seemed cheap and while clicking away, I didn't realised how much I had spent! It was to be expected.
I wanted the Belleza skin and I got the rare -Belleza- Tara Arcade 3 RARE on my first attempt.

I also got the MG necklace Truth Owl Whitel, which is great because I already have the white frog and the white ladybug on previous gatchas. Moon is wearing Mayfly - Luminous - Mesh Eyes (Midnight Hazel).

Next is .Birdy. Blair skin ~Dusk~ Frost. This skin looks so much like a painting. Moon is wearing Mayfly - Luminous - Mesh Eyes (Arctic Glacier).

The final skin I got is [theSkinnery] Maya 9(champagne). I think this skin is so sweet! Eyes are from Mayfly's newest group gift, Keshie Group Gift (Liquid Light Eyes - Forest Green).

With all these skins, Moon is wearing ISON - Heidi HUD - Darks [03] hair, Miamai_XGen Lashes_Lust and I forgot to take off her moles and blusher which are from Mynerva Mole Pack V2 Tattoo Layers and .ID. Rita/Blush Pack. These are old items so I am not sure if they are still available.

I also tried my luck with Analog Dog and I got Analog Dog Hair - The Arcade - "queen" RARE. Oh boy does Moon look a lot like Carter and paired with the .Birdy. Blair skin, she does look to be on the naughty side. This hair is fun!

Colours for cold days

I am still loving the colours of Autumn.

Belleza has a skin called Molly for FLF. Moon is wearing it in her shape(or same face I should say) while I changed the face for Carter. They're both wearing Mayfly luminous eyes and I have to say, these eyes are just amazing.  Also, LavandaChic has another group gift out and I really love the colour and youthfulness of their style. Perfect for Carter.

Early Frost

Amazing how the season passes so fast in SL! Already I saw christmas trees on sale when I went to Old Europe to see what's on sale at the Full Perm Fair.

outfit: ***GIULIADESIGN***jaden purple @ CSR

Did you notice that Moon is wearing all different shapes and skins? Anyway, just a reminder, the Cosmopolitan Sale Room has less than a week left so if you haven't checked out the bargains there, you still have time!

I want to go on a holiday

When I tested this dress on Moon from Holly, the first think that went through my mind was an evening in an 'exotic' place where you don't bring too many outfits but what you bring can be worn at both casual and stylish places, night or day.

And of course you do not bring your expensive jewelleries with you unless you have a bodyguard, but they can be something you pick up while on tour like this sweet flower set from Look*Me.

All I wanna do

Cycle 21 of the Cosmopolitan Sale Room Event starts today Sept29 until Oct12. CSR has moved to the middle of the Slebrity sim and LM has changed.

After blogging for R&B in round 20, I was excited to find out what is in store this time and this minidress did not disappoint me. It's simple yet classy and when I paired it up with boots, it looks sexy. Today I decided to make Moon a blonde and then tped her to B&B to listen to some music.

FYI, from Pippi Moonite's notecard, the owner of R&B, she wrote that R&B stands for  Rò and Bunì, in Italian, and are the names which were traditionally named for the oxen pulling the plow. Rò was always at the righ side, Bunì always at the left.

skin: -Belleza- FLF Autumn Skin
eyes: pc eyes - moon - irish sea
hair: ::Exile:: Groove Theory: Light Blondes
jewellery: ::MOOD:: Isla Holiday jewelry (old item)
bangles: ::MOOD:: WitC Hunt Gift (old item)
minidress: R&B - Ro' e Buni' - veztitino autunnale 01@ Cosmopolitan Sale Room
boots: BAX Prestige Boots Black Suede

The next offering from Miss Moonite is this outfit which only grew on me after I had put it on Moon. I'm not a fan of blouson style dresses coz it just hides the figure but when Moon wore this, I can see the potential... like going clubbing! The roses can be detached if you don't want to be too romantic.
I didn't want to overdo it in the accessory department so it was just a pair of dangling earrings and a gold patterned handbag for Moon's night out. The black shoes and jacket comes with the ensemble.
