Did you know that books, especially if they're those leather bounded first editions would fetch a good price?

And that is exactly what Moon is doing.... sorting out her 'library' to sell her books. After all, there is now e-books. Of course, a few books here and there would make a good prop too, so now she has to choose and it's giving her the headache.

Moving home from the woods to the sea

For the past 9 months, my home had been in a forest skybox. A couple of weeks ago, we moved to a 250 prim platform.



I used my own Amelia's Courtyard Pool house. I wanted a modern home with a pool. I did a little bit of editing too because we were on a sky platform. I deleted the courtyard door and walls. I also extended the deck out and put up the beach sceneries.


I also re-textured some parts of the house because by then, I had new textures to play with!


I also knocked down the wall of the bedroom. That saved me a bit on prims.


We also have a bathroom! That is one area of the house that is never used.

Most of my furnitures are from Bazar. I really love her furnitures. I think I've mentioned this before, but I'll say it again, I love the clean lines and the low prim and the affordable prize. I also used furnitures from The Loft for the living-area. All of these furnitures are low prim and this helps make our home look marvellous.

All in all, we still have 20+ prims to spare for unpacking:)

It's already Friday here. Have a good weekend!

Double the fun

I always enjoy posing Moon and Carter together even though my pc protests.


Both girls are wearing Revanche in these pictures. They're not mesh and they're tailored for applier-wearing girls but I love the bright striking prints and these clothings are affordable if you get them during Fi*Fridays week. I didn't have enough time to accessorized them but I think minimalism looks good especially as the the prints are already 'busy'.

Glam up casual

Pairing a sequin top and jeans makes Moon glamorous in a casual way.


Adraiane Glitter top comes with 12 colours in a hud. This is an item from the Cosmopolitan Sale Room that is ending in a few days. So hurry!
The Gizza jeans has a sheen to it so it goes well with the top and I've chosen jewel encrusted tipped flats and added simplistic jewelleries. The red handbag is just so everything doesn't look so monotonous.
Pure Poison is having a 50% sale right now and I've stocked up on Moon's jewelleries and purses. A woman's shopping never ends.

Club Under Construction

It was time to upgrade Chip's One Night Stand Club.

It's still the same squarish design because I wanted to save on prims. I only have 692 prims on the parcel and I wanted to leave 200 prims free for musicians' instruments and their tip jars and such.

The interior layout hasn't changed either, but I have re-textured everything and made the dressing-room smaller since nobody stayed in there longer than 10 mins.





I've also changed the furnitures and upgraded the couple dances and the bar.

I spent a whole lot of hard earned lindens and it was worth it except....
this annoying fact and I have to get this off my chest.

Have you ever bought something and was so excited to use it and then found out that there was a flaw in it? Well that happened to me when I bought a sofa set. The items were supposed to be copiable, no mod and no transfer but one of them was not copiable. It just makes sense that if every item in the box was copiable except that one, it has to be an error. I can understand making that mistake when you have so many things to set permissions to. So I imed the owner and pointed out the error and asked for a copiable one. She didn't reply. After a couple of hours, I send a notecard and still no reply. I would have thought she would be happy that somebody detected an error and she would be able to correct it for future customers.

It's been 24 hours now. The thing is, earlier that day, when I tried to buy that sofa set, and I could not, I imed her and she replied immediately.

It sure makes me wonder if after getting my lindens, I no longer have the courtesy of customer service.

In the end, I found out how this error occurred because I am a builder, but I cannot imagine how frustrating others who has no inkling would find all this.
