I don't think enough people know about Vaughan's House of Curiosities, a wonderful shop of random must-haves! There's hair, there are clothes, hats and even robots! There's a bit of everything at Vaughan's, AND the owner, Marleen Vaughan is a TOTAL sweetheart. THAT always makes a spendid shop even more so. So get on over dur! My favorite there has GOT to be the quirky, versatile hair.

I don't have a SLurl for :) BCC at the VF2012. However, I do plan to "notecard" vitamingirl to ask if she's got a direct SLurl to her booth at the Fair. Then, as always, I'll update.

Finally, you can find this furniture set - and so much more, at LEAST 40 things - from Melu Deco at the VF2012! It's so sleek and pretty and fitting for what I'm wearing. Well, actually, I wanted to blog this set, so the outfit came together just for the furniture. And I have to be the luckiest SL resident ever! Melusina Parkin, owner of Melu Deco, is another total sweetheart. She has been way nicer to me than I have deserved!

I say those things about designers not to brag but to tell you, once again, that, from my experience, designers in SL are friendly, receptive to suggestions and eager to help you. I have not run into a nasty designer yet, and I send a LOT of NCs and IMs. 

ANYWAY, you've got some shopping to do, yeah? :P

A demain...

/me breathes in deeply and sharply. I'm doomed to forget SOMETHING; there's just so much!

Well...  to celebrate her Facebook page reaching 1,000 likes, Gogo (of Juicy Bomb) shared five of her studio windlight settings with her readers! I'm using one of those that I edited just a tiny bit. It didn't need editing, but I like messing around with stuff. THANK YOU, GOGO! I am very thankful for those because I SUCK at making my own windlight settings.

I usually don't mention my shape in my credits. That's because, unlike skins, for example, the shape I have used in almost all of my entries for the past three months is modifiable. Because it's modifiable, I'd hate to say "This is this shape" and have readers think their face and body shape will resemble mine in any way. It's mod, and because I like to make stuff my own, I've messed around with my staple shape. That shape is Izzie's Cassandra shape, which is including in each Cassandra skin tone pack. Izzie always includes a shape in her skin packs, AND those shapes are always modifiable. This time, however, I'm using another shape called Dublin from Shakeup! While Carrie finds another mainstore location for Shakeup!, her shapes and other products are on sale! This shape, and the others, are on sale for only 100L! I provided the link above; use it frequently! Well, I didn't use it freely because I bought three at the same time! For only 100L each, you can buy several of her awesome shapes. 

Now, hair. This [men's] hair is from the Haaaiiir Faaaiiiir 2012! I just had to provide a shot of the hair from the side, so you could see the awesomeness of the hair AND the hairbase. This is now one of my favorite pixie cuts, along with Exile's Nina and Burley's Ethan. This is what I used to get around the HF2012; it really made things much easier.

Finally, I think, is the ring. You can get the ring and earrings in a single set at the current TDR Blue collection. You'd have to go to the Kunglers Extra store to complete the set with the matching necklace; it's 70L just as the set is at TDR Blue. So what are you waiting for? GET!

If I've forgotten something, I will update the entry tomorrow. I'll also add the pictures to my Flickr page and update some SLurls!

A demain...

WHAT I'M WEARING:

SKIN: Phoebe in Ebony (Laqroki)

BAG: Full Leather Holdall Bag Unisex (Tee*fy)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Phoebe is back! If you'll remember, Phoebe was my first and only "staple" skin when I started this blog. She was the original subject of my obsessive love!

I decided to give another pair of nails a try. Thus, I'm wearing Izzie's Classic Nails! The pack comes with 13 (that's right - THIRTEEN) gloves of 13 different skin tones, which are all modifiable. I'm wearing the ebony glove and modified it so that it matched Phoebe. It doesn't stop there; the pack comes with a HUD that allows for 39 nail color changes for your size 10, 15, or 20 hands!

I purchased these earrings a while ago from the Marketplace. Today, I'm not able to find them on the MP, although there is an inworld store (not listed on the MP but located through my profile stalkery skill: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Nautilus%20-%20Hanno/206/16/23). If you click on either earring, you'll get a menu offering 12 gem color changes and 6 metal color changes. I can't remember what I paid for these, but I don't think they were more than 200L. I'd prefer bigger studs because these are hard to see unless you're zoomed in pretty close, and color changes are not so easily seen because of the small size. However, I suppose, they fit well for the look I had in mind. I love studs, and I think there should be more of them in SL! What say you?

EDIT: Thank hell for Blogger's autosave feature! This laptop has a battery/charger problem. If the charger is disconnected, the laptop is shut down immediately. I happened to move my leg the wrong way. Sigh...

Anyway, wonder1and+kush is a new brand! I can't wait to see more. There's no mainstore (or any store) for the shop yet, but the notecard that comes with this top promises one in the near future!

A demain...

WHAT I'M WEARING:

SKIN: Emma Ebony, Bare Face ([The Skinnery]) - Available at the Skin Showcase!

EYES: Enchanting Eyes in Dark Brown (Nana)

HAIR: Arbre in Noir [of Black Tones pack] (vive9

NAILS: Drop Dead Red Manicure (*Sexy Mamas*)
LIPSTICK: Lip Gloss in RubyRed (*Leafy)

TOP: Summer Time Greek Path (Paperbag.) 
BOTTOMS: Jean Super Ok #3 (Emery)
SHOES: Color Blocking Wedges - Pre-Release (Tee*fy) - Available at TDR Blue!

NECKLACE: Not Granny's Necklace (:Amorous:)

BRACELET and RING: Palma set2 + HUD (Donna Flora)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I promise to not be so mouthy this time. Cookouts under a relentless sun tire the mind...

I changed my hair in the last picture just so you could see all of this beautiful face from Uma (of The Skinnery). It's near perfection, as you can see. It is not quite perfection (I'd give it a 9.8 out of 10), for me, because I wish it were a bit darker. But, again, that's my own preference. It's a 10-rate skin. In each skin tone / makeup pack, you get nine skins with three eyebrows (no brows, light brows, and dark brows) and three amounts of cleavage, pubic hair (on underpants and tattoo layers), a teeth tattoo layer and an "extra blush" tattoo layer.

Not Granny's Necklace, from Matchbook Monday of Amorous, is, er, not for Granny. There are eight loveable messages, two of which are shown here. You can also, as always, change other features of the necklace, such as the cord and the metal. 

The Palma set from Donna Flora comes with a ring and bracelet for both hands. It also includes a HUD that allows for six color changes of the items as a group, not individually.

Now, I'm off to recover from a fried brain. 

/me faints onto floor, face first.

Jessie

I found another skin!

I love it!

I'll update with credits after I get home. I've worked 12 hours straight and only had two muffins and 1.5 cups of coffee! This mean that I'll drive home, ravage the fridge's contents, and THEN update with credits. 30 more minutes left! I CAN DO IT!
