Lazy day at the Candy Store with my sister

A while back, my avatars used to be blondes and that is no accident. Although I am usually aware what is happening around me, I can be clueless sometimes. Like I had no idea that when I syndicate, my blogs would automatically be posted on the feeds. I thought I had to post each blogpost every time and I can pick and choose which post not to send out because I don't want to send out a post that has too much personal rants in it or that other blog of mine which is really just a database for the stuffs I'm selling on Marketplace.

Oh well. There is a local saying: The rice has become porridge.
You know you can't turn porridge into rice again so what's done is done. And porridge is not bad.

I didn't get to shop much in-world today, but I did go to TDR Fusion and Carter got a new skin from Essence. So today's style is rummaged from the girls' inventories. I always think of Moon and Carter as sisters and while I'm dressing them up, I would imagine the things they would be doing. I don't have a sister in real life. There was just me and my brother. But I have 2 daughters and it gives me the greatest pleasure to see them both loving and supporting each other even though they are both as different as cheese and chalk!

In the pink

I was boxing up tops when one of the blouses got me into a dilemma whether I should box it or let it because I still have great attachment for the style and so I put it on and got into a styling mode.... but you know, in the end, this is what came out of that mode:

No blouse.

I went to the Cupcake sim to take the picture and here are some shots of the rainy area:

Moon's inventory is now less than 50K!

Today I went for Group gifts and dollarbies

I have not dismantled the Villa yet and it was a good spot to take pictures of my 2 favorite avatars in their pretty outfits.

Moon is ready to go dancing at the club. She is wearing sexy Alejandro, one of 2 latest group gift from Liv-Glam.

Here is the close-up of the cut-outs on the side. So, so sexy.

Finally, at the 24 Event, I grabbed the limited edition chair from Bazar. When I left, there was only 3 left.

It comes in 2 styles with 2 different option each, making it 4 different kinds of styles.  A very good deal.

Just relax

I am on a mission to shop for Carter. I've been itching to play with the shape sliders again and putting shapes on the marketplace again but Moon's inventory is already too heavy to add another 'build' category in it and I've been thinking of passing the 'job' to Carter.
It makes me giggle because men always say that women have a million alts and although I don't deny it because women are natural hoarders, I see no wrong in having multiple alts as long as it is not used negatively.
I use my alt when I want to be alone and I don't add friends on my alt.

Somehow, with Carter, I tend to have her wear very casual laidback outfits. The kind of outfits my elder daughter would wear. It will be a challenge to make mature shapes with her. Well, it is still a plan. Right now I am shopping for affordable skins. And clothes. And hair. And shoes.... the list is endless.

Skin: Essences - Sash 01 ~ light rose ~ collarbor88 August
hair: [monso] My Hair - Daisy/ Black Brown collarbor88 August
top: Apple May Designs - Say It! Tops - Jersey 25L sale AMD
pants: Apple May Designs - Female Cargo Capri's - Black 25L sale AMD
sneakers: ::7Style:: -Mid- sneakers black fi*fridays

nails: *Sexy Mamas* Manicure - Sculpted Prim Nails
pose: Purple Poses

Shopping is always fun.

The little white dress

For a long time, I've always went back to wearing Elate Felicity in ice dress because I love how Moon looks wearing the layered dress. Now with Cynful latest The 'Shimmy' Dress in grey, which looks similar to the Felicity dress, I will be boxing up the dress. So far, I've boxed up almost all the items from the jacket folder. Boxing is not a fast process:(

dress: [Cynful] The 'Shimmy' Dress - Grey [C88]
hair: [monso] My Hair - Daisy/ Black Brown (C88)
earrings: (Kunglers Extra) Ipomoea - silver/black
shoe: Maitreya shiki in nude
pose: Purple Pose(The Black Fair)

I'm posing Moon in the loggia of the house I'm building which I hope will have some Italian influence. Otherwise, the loggia will be called a verandah:p
I also shortened Moon by 2 both in height and legs. There doesn't seemed to be much difference.

hunting for today's cheapies

I went looking for freebies today. After browsing the fashion blogs, I went to the Black Fair to get some poses from Purple Poses. It's been a while since I bought poses and it was time for an update.

I then tried getting the stuffs I had demoed and from this month's Collarbor88 but it was so laggy, my linden balance kept on reverting to -1L and I had to get my other avatar to pay Moon 1L to get it back to normal.

Then after I accidentally bought the wrong product, I knew I had to get out before it happen again. So that means another day for shopping those stuffs.

I love low-rise flared jeans and crop tops so this hunt item was a must for me.

outfit: Alexa outfit from Pins & Needles for the Colours of Summer Hunt
hair: !lamb. Bernice - Loveless Pack from this month's collarbor88
glasses: [Steinwerk] - Fusion Sunglasses
bag: [Armidi Gisaci] Porta Corsico Bag - Brown
jewelleries: zaara
shoes: Maitreya shiki(I'd never let Moon leave home without this if I can)

skin: Cecilia Al Vulo freebie at the black Fair

skin: Tanita Wow skin dollarbie at the Black Fair

This home by the Sea

One of the things I love to do in SL is house decorating. I don't have the time to do it in a leisurely way anymore because I am always in a hurry to pack up the house once it's completed. Fortunately, I prefer minimal clutter.

The thing about contemporary classical furnitures, once you have them, you don't need to buy anymore furnitures because they're timeless.

Elven Fantasy

I wanted to see if Moon would still feel like Moon in her everyday Anais skin. I hate changing skins and shapes just for certain ideas even though I have tons of skins because once I love a certain skin, I feel like that's Moon and changing would make her a different person and in turn, not me. I think it's a silly notion, but that's how I feel.
Those ears with those chains look so sexy, I might not take them off.

Headpiece and Necklace: Illusions Elessia
Ear chains: Illusions Mystic Chains
Ears: Illusions High Elf Ears

Moon is wearing an old gown from MysticHope.

 Location: Skye Neist Point

warm summer breezes in something sheer and old

I just completed my houses and this bedroom looks so inviting I thought I might as well take a picture of Moon in something sheer for the 50 shades of sexy challenge which I have neglected doing for a very long time.
Moon is wearing an old outfit from SF Design called Carribean Crotchet and Truth hair Kerri.

I am in Pergola mood lately and that's why all my houses seems to have them. And having a water parcel seems to inspire me to build all kinds of houses that would suit a water parcel even if it seemed unlikely, think carribean countries during colonial times.

old jeans and cowboys

Moon is wearing hair from Magika Wait and old tee and jeans and boots. This is her outfit from the fast folder and the scripts from the boots have been deleted so this get-up is low script.

Then I tped to Truth to get the hair and hat combo but I still prefered the old Ween Cowboy hat from Reek but I love this Kerri hair with the texture-change headband.

Now to complete the house.
