So Many Events, So Little Time

So many shopping events going on right now, I was torn where to start! In addition to the ongoing Cosmopolitan Sales Room (CSR) event, the OMG Gacha is open over at Jersey Shore and a new edition of Chapter Four has opened! And starting on Sunday, the Men Only Gacha (MOG) begins. Now, before you ladies get your knickers in a knot, it’s about time the guys had their own event, don’t you think? I know I’ll be checking it out, just as I always visit each round of The Men’s Department. Lots of stuff is unisex (like the hat I’m wearing from JfL and will be part of the MOG) and I usually check out what might look good in the Man Cave. And since it’s a gacha event, you can pick up some nifty stuff for your guy without having to drag him along, whinging about having to go shopping. How could he possibly resist a gift from his special gal? 😉

Here is a closer look at the hat, some of the goodies from *ionic* I picked up at both Chapter Four and OMG Gacha, and this silky dress from Look*Me at CSR. It has a texture-change HUD, so you can mix and match your favourite accessories to suit.

As for me, I’ll spread my time around all of these just to find a look I love. With so many events, what else is a girl to do?

Romantically Beautiful

I’m sorry to say I haven’t heard a lot about a sales event going on in Second Life right now – Rock Your Rack. It is a benefit event with part (or all) of the proceeds going to fight Breast Cancer. Presented by Models Giving Back, at least one item from each designer is 100% donation with many others at a lower contribution. While mainly focused on women’s fashion, there are some items for men, as well as unisex (my friend John from JfL has an exclusive black bolero hat with a red band that you should check out). The event runs through October 1, so hurry over to check it out!

The dress, by Poet’s Heart and jewelry set, by Lazuri are finds from this event. You can choose from four colours of the Reverie dress and you can either purchase the complete set of jewels or individual pieces.

I am not affiliated with this event, but it is a worthwhile cause I wanted to share. My life has been indirectly touched by breast cancer, so I am aware of the importance of continuing research. Anyway we can give back is a good thing. And if we end up looking romantically beautiful as a result, all the better.

Pretty stuff I’m wearing:

Dress: Poet’s Heart – Reverie – Passion by Irina Strazytski (available at Rock Your Rack – 50% Donation)
Jewelry: Lazuri Celeste Heirloom Complete Set by Zuri Lyric (Available at Rock Your Rack – 100% Donation)

Feeling Fall-ish

1 Feeling Fallish

I have to admit that when I went to Collabor88 this month, I really wasn’t feeling the fall mood. Here in Australia we have just headed into spring and it’s been an unseasonably warm one. In fact, the day I hit Collab, it was 32 degrees Celsius (that’s almost 90F). I still managed to find a few items I liked enough to add to my wardrobe.

Then, today, the temperature dropped by 10 degrees Celsius and with a rather strong breeze blowing, it felt more like autumn. And I began to feel a bit fall-ish. So I set up the Trompe Loeil Fireplace Patio kit and slipped into some autumn duds.

I will mention, in all fairness, that this jacket doesn’t really work with these pants, except in certain poses. I certainly wouldn’t wear it out, but I really did love this look. And since I have this blazing fire beside me, although it is outdoors, I don’t mind baring a little calf and cleavage.

Just because there is a nip in the air doesn’t mean I can’t show a bit of skin 😉
