Skin expo crazy stuff and some free gifts :)

A few days ago a Skin & shape expo started. I was there a couple of times. The funniest thing about these fairs is the "LAG" and all the people complaining and bitching about the awful laaaaag! Well let me tell you, it is normal to lag if the sim is full! I remembered an article I read during the "Hair fair" on Ana lutetia blog. It is written sooooo well. Everyone should take a look and read it. Here is the Link--- >Anatomy of Lag.
On Saturday, at the moment I landed there, there was some really crazy shouting going on. I was laughing so hard... Really amusing. lol. ( I removed all the names) I think I landed just in the middle of this:

[15:46] Person 1 shouts: Good Lord People take off some of your prims you are causing the terrible lag in here!
[15:46] Person 2 shouts: F**k off! I spent one hour tping, I think I can take 5 min to take my clothes off
[15:47] Person 3 shouts: I hope they all die of crotch rot!
[15:47] Person 2 shouts: I doubt it
[15:48] Person 1 shouts: should take them all off like the rest of us. This is like swimming in pea soup because you had to wear every damn prim you own
[15:49] Person 2 shouts: Seeing that I am wearing only my system clothes, I would sugest you to care about your own business and be less agressive
[15:49] Person 3 shouts: Says the lady who yelled out F**k off.
[15:50] Person 2 shouts: Yeah, and I say it again, to people who are calling other ones "assholes"
[15:50] Person 4 shouts: Smiles and passes valium out to anyone that needs one......
[15:50] Person 5 shouts: first i wasn't talking to you but ok, this is the last time i'm shouting, this is dumb..have fun
[15:50] Person 2 shouts: ok now go back to your business, thank you
[15:50] Person 1 shouts: I didnt call you an asshole. I suggested you remove some of your prims to make the lag not so hard on the rest of the people trying to navigate here. It is called common courtesy
[15:51] Person 2 shouts: I am NOT WEARING ANY PRIMS

The next day I went back there and the story was the same... people shouting at each other. Thanks for the great amusement. Hahaha! Cool down people! SL used to be FUN! ;) If you go there you KNOW you will LAG, so accept it, simple. If you don't accept this fact--> don't go there! The skins will be in stores after the expo anyway.

Anyhow I managed to visit most of the stores and I grabbed some of the gifts there and the demos. So make sure you visit the expo and check out the beautiful skins and shapes of course. Some of the % of the purchased skins and shapes will be donated to the Susan G.Kome breast cancer Foundation. So it is really for a great cause.



These are the gift skins from Exodi.

Everyone who follows this blog and who knows me in SL knows I love Miel clothing. Mika and Miel are creating such a fantastic stuff I am drooling every time when I see they released new goodies for us♥. Everything is so well done. I would say perfect is the right word.
Last week's release is no exception. You have to run down to Miel (if you didn't already) and check it out... they have demos to try on before u buy. The stuff is perfect for mixing and matching the way you like it because everything is on sale separately.. shirts, skirts... etc.
The skin I am wearing in this post is a s-o-m group gift from Dutch Touch. It is stunning and I think it makes me look "smart" LoL. :)

Tops- CALI tops from Miel
Skirts- CALI cords from Miel
Glasses-Genius peepers from Miel

The next thing I am going to show in this post is this new group gift dress from Elate- Sunny dress. It is sooo cute! You have to subscribe to Elate s-o-m and check the history. :)
The other outfit I am wearing on this photo is from DCNY new release. I am crazy about this outfit!! It is so adorable and a basket full of flowers comes with it. Cute!♥

--AMERIE--

Amerie Spitteler, one of my favourite SL designers, the owner of Amerie's naughty store opened her own sim! I am so happy for Amerie!♥ The sim is open for group members only until the official opening planed for the end of the week. Amerie's naughty store was one of the first stores I purchased clothes back at the end of 2007 when I was a noob. It is just amazing to see how it has grown since then. From a tiny little store back in 2007 to her very own sim now! She also decided to change the name of the store from Amerie's Naughty to just AMERIE. For the opening she also released new clothes for Sugar and spice collection. I am showing some of the new pieces today. I love them!! So, If you are in *an* update group, hurry down to her sim and explore! It is awesome, I promise ;)If not, I am afraid you will have to wait until the official opening because the group is closed I believe. Here is the limo to AMERIE sim.

Sequined tank black and white from S&S (Amerie)
Pants and stole from Simple woman outfit from Amerie
Boots from Bax
Hair from Tiny Bird-Millionaire-Pepper (from today's 50l friday)

Today I decided to make my own poses for these photos... soooo.. I am so excited to show my own poses! yay! Haha. Actually these are not the first poses I made.. few months ago I started something.. but then I just did not have time to mess with it some more. Anyway It is simple and fun! I was using Qavimator. It is free and very easy to use.

I made a combo of Artilleri and Fishy Strawberry in this post. Both stores released some gorgeous new stuff.
Antonia Marat from Artilleri released two new dresses! I am a huge fan of hers, so I run down to Artilleri and bought a Kitty dress in black. It is really cute! The skirt has two options- with poof and without it. =) I lovee polkadots hehe.

I am sure Lucille oh'Doll dress from Fishy Strawberry is one of the best baby doll dresses I have. It moves so well and like all clothes from FishyS.--> the textures are just amazing.

I am ready for autumn!

That's it. I am ready for autumn!!!



I was searching the google for some cute autum lyrics and I found this heheh...

You know it's autumn when it's dark when you get out of bed
You know it's autumn when a conker falls on your head
You know it's autumn when the weather starts to turn cool
You know it's autumn when everyone goes back to school
Birds migrate,hedgehogs hibernate, leaves turn brown
And all fall down
You know that everyday nature is trying to say
The summer is over
And winter is on it's way...
(The song is from the Bbc webpage lol)

I just love this new Jacket from Coco! It looks so real it's scary!!
And The Prestige boots from BAX! I wanted these boots for so long... and few days ago I received them as a gift from my dear friend! I love them so much.. actually I haven't taken them off for the past 3 days so no wonder I am wearing them for this blog post. ;)
And another thing I totally adore is this black jeans with lace from GiGi couture. Really sexy! I am a fan of Gigi Couture for over a year now and I am always amazed with new releases. Love it. ♥♥

Cigarette from FNKY!

Hunny, No!

I am not perfect I know, I do things wrong too! But there are some basic rules you need to know if you wanna look at least decent. So I made a top 10 list of what I think it is wrong.

1. Do NOT wear bling. Bling is ugly and looks really cheap. Believe me people will notice that ring on your finger or a necklace you just bought WITHOUT annoying bling. It makes you look like a christmas tree. Trust me.

2. Never wear a body oil. and when I say never I mean NEVER. Body oil is something what belongs to the past. You do not need a body oil with the new gorgeus skins in SL nowdays. It makes you look very ugly!

3. Face light- Some people I see walking around sl are totally excessive with it. Shining way tooo much!!! Why do you need a face light anyway? You do not need it. If you think you need to look brighter... change settings on your windlight. It will help and people around you wont go blind when you walk in to the room. It is annoying!!! Plus- it makes you look stupid when u walk in to the room and you are not rezzed yet with all the grey balls (I call it a solar system) floating around you. Funny!

4. Make sure your prim attachments are placed correctly. It looks damn funny if they are not. So what you have to do is edit it and simply check "stretch" in the menu and u will see little grey boxes around the item u wanna resize and just move them as you like. Sometimes this doesnt work.. so if u want more detailed resize check edit linked parts and then stretch again and you will see red, blue, green boxes. just move them and resize as you want. :)) Before you do so make sure u made a copy of the item you are resizing. So, if you f*** up something you always can go back and start again. Many times the item has a resizer script in it so u can resize it by simply clicking on the item. If the item is no modify and has no resizer script then do not buy it because it sucks.

5. There are outfits for different occasions. So please do not go shopping in your underwear... would you do so in RL? I do not think they will even let you in wearing underwear only. I guess they will lock you in a mental institution instead. Just because we are in Sl this doesn't mean it is OK to go shopping half naked. It is bad and it makes you look like a slut.

6. Never wear your belly ring over your shirt. It looks really funny and....really painful.

7. Be careful how to use layers. So your tattoo won't end up over your shirt. ugh...

8. If you wear prim feet shoes, make sure you don't wear socks with them!

9. Don't forget to change your prim feet colour if u change your skin because the skin on your feet won't change itself when you put on another skin.

10. Do not wear that instant "smile" attachment. It is creepy and it makes you look like a lunatic.
