No Exit

1 Epiphany

Have you been to Epiphany? It’s a twist on the traditional gacha event where you can trade in extras and unwanted prizes for credits which you can exchange for an exclusive item. I’m still trying to decide if it is a blessing or a curse; while the idea of getting rid of unwanted prizes is pretty cool, it also means that sometimes you end up spending even more, trying to get that couple extra credits for an exclusive. And then you end up getting something else you like and you spend more, this time trying desperately to win a duplicate and wouldn’t you know it? You end up getting something you really wanted so you have to spend even more?

Clever? Oh, you bet it is. There’s no exit until you’ve emptied your bank account 😉

The skirt and top I’m wearing are the exclusives from Salt & Pepper. You can get the copy version for only 25 credits; the transfer style is 200.

Just a reminder that Hair Fair 2015 ends on July 26th so you only have a couple of days to get over there to scour the best collection of hair on four sims. And the 26th is Bandana Day, so doff your hair and don a bandana as a reminder of what this event is really all about – helping out Wigs for Kids.

Cure For A Headache

1 Shattered

Gee, and I thought I had a headache…

I paid a visit to Cammino e Vivo Capovolto by Mistero Hifeng. It is a limited-time installation at LEA29 and it is definitely worth a trip. It is one of those places that is fine to go to by yourself, to wander and discover the creations of this talented artist.

This venue is as filled with beauty as it is with despair. As I walked about, I felt a sense of reverence for the pain and loss depicted by each vignette. I won’t say I enjoyed it; rather, I felt as if I had been allowed the privilege of having a glimpse of private anguish and loss.

On a happier note, the dress I am wearing from Salt & Pepper is available for this round of Shiny Shabby. It comes with a texture-change HUD to give you a variety of looks.

A little shopping is always better than a painkiller.

Dinner At 8

1 Dinner at 8

It is a limited menu for a very discerning diner. The table is set, the candles are lit and there is a fresh breeze gently fluttering the curtains. All that is missing is my dinner companion. If he doesn’t come soon, I may have to start without him.

Shiny Shabby has just opened and among the fabulous goodies you can pick up are the Zee Dining Set (for swingers) by Kuro and a great set of sitting poses by !bang. Also, Apple May Designs has released this sexy corset, which works well with the previously-released Kia lingerie set. The red version of the corset is available at the main store this weekend for only 25L. You can also pick up the lovely necklace (with matching earrings) at Salt & Pepper.

I was sure the lure of these new additions would ensure my date arrived on time!

Is it just my imagination, or is that moose smirking at me?

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:

Bra & Panties: Apple May Designs – Kia – White by Apple May
