Shopping in Second Life

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?

Spoiled For Choice

Yes, I recovered from my cleaning and now I’m sitting here, wondering what to do with myself. It’s a wonderful thing about Second Life, how spoiled for choice we are. I could go shopping or dancing or exploring or a hundred different things. It’s a glorious position to be in, yet no less frustrating. I may have to draw straws or pull an idea out of a hat. But I’ll head out in hopes that I can make up my mind.

The Confident Wallflower

1 R&B - Cosmo Weekly_018

We all know I’m not really a glamour girl, but when I slipped into this dress, I felt a moment of Cao-ness (my gorgeous friend, the model). Shimmery and feminine, I truly love the mesh dress with the flexi-skirt pieces that give me the swoosh I had missed since most gowns have moved to full mesh. Yes, I’m still a bit of a wallflower, hiding in a corner, but with confidence – not shyness.

Where is my Prince Charming? Stuck in a hole somewhere, no doubt. But I have high hopes he will dig his way out to pluck me off of my stem and twirl me away in his arms.

This dress will be featured at the SLebrity SLection Street Sale on Tuesday only at the 50% VS 50L event. Mark your calendar and whoosh over to grab it while it leaves you room in your pocketbook for the requisite accessories.
