morning quickie

I don’t have a lot of time this morning, but I’ve been wanting to get a post up so badly…I feel like it’s been forever. Lately my days are consumed of caring for others, then at night when it’s finally “my turn” I’m so exhausted I’m asleep before my head hits the pillow. I’ve gone from Poppy Panache, Blogger to Poppy Panache professional taxi and butt wiping service. :/

I think I’ve had this outfit on in sl for close to 2 weeks..thank goodness it’s so cute I don’t really mind. The top is a new item from Crazy..I love how girly and vintage it looks. I paired it with Milk Motion’s new shorts and glitter bag, plus some of my favorite pieces of jewelry. I topped everything off with croire’s derby sunhat, which is FREE if you join the group! The necklace and earrings and ring(right hand) are undefined lilies new yardsale stroll pieces. If you haven’t gone to undefined lilies lately you should check it out..she has a bunch of awesome new things…and they are available on the marketplace as well!

Since I’m so crunched for time at the moment I’m unable to add links but please leave a message if you have any questions and I’ll answer them as promptly as possible. You can also check the right hand side bar of my blog where you’ll see several different store links, or use the search tab at the top of the page and use the store link from a different post.

Have a lovely day all, and thanks for your continued support! xxx

/me kicks rl in the balls

Time has not been on my side lately and there are so many beautiful things that I want to blog. To be honest I’ve been having thoughts of calling it quits for a while..not because I don’t love it, but because of rl obligations.

I still want to try to post when I can though…like Confucius says, “It does not matter how slow you go so long as you don’t stop”.

the platinum hunt

Some awesome things going on right now…first and foremost The Platinum Hunt kicks off today.  This is the hunt that you have to pay 10 L$ for each gift, but let me tell you, the items are so high quality it is well worth it..i mean what is that…50cents? :p

Click here to visit the official hunt blog. There you can view a list of all the participating stores WITH links…thank you Miss Keira! You’ll see names such as Glam Affair, glow studio, LaGyo, BOOM, Royal Blue, elikatira…the list goes on and on…

The Indie Rose gift is one of my favorites (worn in this post). I love the cut of the dress ..it has a vintage look to it. You can’t help but feel feminine and sexy in it. 
I was tickled to death to receive the Lelutka group gift, Hadley..I was soo excited that she didn’t have green or purple eyeshadow too lol…nice soft neutral wearable tones. I just saw this skin for the first time the other day and made a mental note to try it on soon…it had such a unique look..and younger looking than most Lelutka skins imho.

dress, necklace, and earrings: ~*INDIE ROSE*~ Platinum Hunt II Prize!!

sarong song

I’ve had my eye on the Connors Pareo sets since they first started showing up in the feeds, and I was finally able to get one. The tank and panties come with the sarong-the one I chose is called Hibiscus..but they could pass for poppies..maybe? :p
Have you been to Connor’s lately? Not too very long ago I went in and was really blown away by how far they had come since I first went there (a year or more ago). Don’t get me wrong, it was nice back then but everything just looked extra high quality this time

While you’re there rez a bike and ride around their roomy store (bicycle rezzer by the front entrance). Don’t forget to join the group and pick up the group gifts in the front. They also have a lucky board on each side of the store (men’s and womens sides)..the men’s gift is unisex.

fashionably late with bare feet :o

It seems as if all the women in SL are running around barefoot all of a sudden..maybe it’s because Maitreya has released *the perfect prim feet! If you’ve worn any Maitreya Gold shoes, then you know how real the feet look, how well made they are..and the bare feet are no exception. Available  in pointy toes or flat feet (both styles shown in picture above).

TP to Maitreya to get your bare feet! Also, while you’re there check out the new  YaXkin flats and the new summer edition of the Moxi wedges.

The adorable Elly bandana tops and the newest Shag hair, Voulez Vous, can be found at Fashionably Late, for this week only! Every week the collection changes at 4pm SLT on Sunday…don’t miss out on the special prices!
