A Cure for the Monday Blues

I’ve got a case of the Monday Blues. It’s cold and rainy where I live right now, and I’m just not having it. I think a really cold rain is the worst kind of rain! And I’ve got to get out and go to class in it, so that should be fun! But, enough complaining….the sun’ll come out tomorrow! (I hope!)

Do you guys get the Monday Blues? What do you do to conquer them? For me, throwing on a cute outfit puts me in a better mood!

I’ve got 3 looks to show you today that I put together using stuff from U.One, which is a store I just discovered. Well, okay, I saw it on the FabFree blog. It’s owned by Fionna Cale, who is coincidentally the same designer for PopArt Furniture. I don’t think I’ve blogged PopArt before, but Fionna is notorious for making cute furniture at super low prices. A huge percentage of the stuff in her furniture store is only $1L, and the same goes for her clothing store as well. I found it a little strange that U.One’s prices are kind of all over the place, ranging from $1L to $15L to $25L (I think), but she’s put out some super cute mesh items that were definitely worth blogging about!

I do have to say, though, that I’m pretty sure most stuff in U.One is template clothing, but that doesn’t bother me a bit because it’s all super cute.

Cheap Sex

Happy Friday, everyone! I want to show you a quick look from things I picked up today! The only thing better than a super sexy look is a super sexy look that you can get for practically nothing!

This gorgeous lingerie can be found at Seldom Blue for FREE as part of the Dominatrix Hunt, going on November 1st-30th. You’re looking for an icon with the letters “WTG” in red. The Dominatrix Hunt is sponsored by Who’s That Girl, and you can find the hunt hints here. I’ve been a fan of Seldom Blue’s stuff for a long time, and Indigo never fails to please! There are a few freebies, lucky chairs, and some $99L bargain items at Seldom Blue, too, so make sure you check those out while you’re there.

My gorgeous shoes are from Deco for Fifty Linden Friday! I really have a hard time resisting things with sequins and glitter (or just shiny things in general), and I definitely couldn’t resist these! They’re mesh, and there are several other colors available but the silver color is the only one available for $50L. Hurry to Deco and get these awesome shoes….they go great with anything!

I hope everyone had a great Halloween, and here’s to a fantastic weekend! Love you all!

Skipping over Halloween

Am I the only person on the planet that really just doesn’t like Halloween? I used to enjoy it when I was younger, but now it’s just gotten too big of a mess for me to enjoy. Years ago, you could only buy things like fake spiders and skeletons, which were a nice spooky touch without being too scary. But now, you can buy displays that include bodies that are cut in half and hanging from the ceiling, making some sort of horrific intestinal chandelier. When my RL fiance and I went to our local Halloween shop last weekend, I was pretty freaked out by all of the terrible looking things you could buy. There were people with children in strollers shopping in there, and I couldn’t help but wonder if the half-eaten bodies were affecting them at all. There was even one display with half a body cut open, and a possum was stuck inside the lower half. You would press a button and the possum would begin moving, and the “victim”, which resembled some kind of zombie, would writhe and yelp in pain. I know Halloween is supposed to be scary, but in my opinion, Halloween specialty stores should have just stuck to the fake ghosts and goblins. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love a good horror movie, but for some reason, Halloween and I just aren’t on speaking terms this year. Maybe I’m just a Debbie Downer, but I feel like the super gruesome things should be made only for the movies in Hollywood, not for your front yard. After all, those movies are rated “R” for a reason.

Anyway, in the spirit of my Halloween boycott, I figured that I would waste no time skipping right over Halloween to Winter in order to show you these coats! I first saw them on Love’s post on the FabFree Blog, and I went to pick up a copy for myself, because this is an offer too good to pass up if you’re in need of a plush winter coat!

 

The free group gift coat comes in 4 colors, and I’m showing you 2 here. It comes in green, red, black, and white, and it is mesh w/an included alpha layer. This coat is super fluffy and warm, for those days when you need extra layers!

Have a happy Halloween, everyone, and stay safe!!

I love Fall!

Hi guys!
So it’s been a while since my last post…..I’ve been super super busy with school (college takes over your whole life!) and honestly, I’ve just been feeling a bit uninspired recently. But I decided to get over that today and blog this, haha.

I love fall so much. To me, there are few things better than putting on a comfortable sweater, some adorable boots, and going outside to sip hot cider with friends around a campfire. I’ve actually been wearing this outfit a lot in SL recently, so I figured that I might as well blog it!

I hope you all are having a great fall season, and my prayers, hugs, and love go out to all who are affected by Hurricane Sandy. I live in SC, so it’s been ice cold and super windy here, but our weather is nothing compared to the devastation some are experiencing. I hope and pray that you all stay safe. <3

Studious

Hey, y’all! So Ricielli is having another hunt like the one I previously blogged, and it’s called the Halloween Hunt. There are 20 easy-to-find pumpkins around the mesh department, and each pumpkin is $15L. Of course, all of the items are steals because they’re awesome quality for such a cheap price! I’m really loving these hunts Ricielli has….they’re perfect for adding layerable & mix-and-match items to your wardrobe!

If you want to see a preview vendor pic of all the hunt items, visit Love Trill’s post on the FabFree blog here!

I just threw together this look with 2 of the items I bought. I’ve been working my butt off this semester, so I’m not feeling very creative or inspired today….hence the reason this post is rather plain. (Sorry!) I think this look is really cute, but it’s definitely not what I wear to study in RL! I’m usually in sweatpants and a t-shirt!

Hope your week has been great! Love you guys XOXOXO
