A Night With The Bestie

So a night with my bestie usually consists of “Dood have you seen……?” “Dood you gots to check this out….” and “OMFG loook at that guy’s collar” And so it was this evening. Bestie and I were at Aden, stocking up on hair, when this guy rezzed in. He had on the most amazing neko feets, but it was his collar that grabbed our attention. His name is Devilmaycare Oxbar, and we were mercilessly clicking on him to see what his collar would do. It changed before our eyes, from a simple collar, to rotating gears, to yet another collar with glowy gear symbols on it.

“ASK HIM WHERE HE GOT THAT SHIT FROM” I think I remember demanding at some point. So question asked, LM given and we were off to Cats Of A Feather. It’s a store Devil and his partner Melancholia Lilliehook own. After the collar was purchased, we actually took a breather to look round!! Not only do they have the most incredible jewelery, but poses, neko parts and fecking awesome cyber bits. Shown here is the Kitty Lock Collar, which while isn’t free is the best L you’ll spend this year….srsly. The hawt outfits? Totes free from Kayliwulf Kingdom.

And because I’m not a total meany, the bone choker shown here is a freeb/dollarbie (forgive me I have buyers fever) 😛 You will find free eyes, a shape, poses and much more. The other chokers shown are amazing and totally reasonable (like 75L) so go buy em!!! Now if you’ll excuse me, I haz to go cleek myself….lots 😛 Ash Out.

Other Stuff I’m Wearing
Hair (not free, but all hair is 50L atm)

Skin, Strange Brew & the Collared Kind

How morbid it must sound, a post about skin & witches & collars. ha ha ha. I assure you it’s all very innocent, what with the hot post below, I can’t help but attempt at taking it down a notch. 

Theses beautiful skins are from the new Bejambled skin boutique. The sweet owner, Cory, is giving the above skin away for free. (!!) The give away was suppose to end yesterday, but Cory’s so cool that she decided to extend the giveaway to the end of Wednesday, just for Free*Stylers. How cool is that?!

The strawberry choker is another freebie, from the awesome !* Rebel Xtravaganza *! The adorable (not free) shirt is from Uma who runs Uma’s Style Diary, which is one of my favorite SL Style reads. I love her cute cartoon t-shirts. The art is great as is the t-shirt texture. 

This next skin isn’t a freebie, but I couldn’t resist sharing it with you. I feel so pretty in it. I know this must sound strange, but Cory does a real good nose. I love, looovee the way my nose looks here. Sometimes the nostrils look terrible, morphed into weird kidney bean/jellybean mutants. I must say I have no complaints here. This nose is perfecto.

The earrings are a freebie from the always awesome Yak & Yeti. The pretty pearl cuff is a freebie from Icing.

I adore my very Halloween triple skull earrings from Deco, which is one of my new favorite jewelry shops. (along with *UnTone* and Beauty Avatar) They also have a cute saw necklace too. (All non-free mind you, but extremely on topic with Halloween and all). The necklace is from Atomic Kitty and is a limited edition Halloween release, and it rocks my socks off!

The cute lil witch on my shoulder comes from AnnaMayaHouse and it’s a freebie for halloween! It comes in two colors, and two positions. As a shoulder pet as shown, or you can have her fly around you in circles. 

Her broom lets out color-changing sparkles! Soo cute. The witches also come with a big, chunky scarf held together with a giant safety pin. I’d wear the scarf with a cute dress, pig tails and bubbly shoes. Voila- cutie pie Halloween look. Just be prepared to swat away all those who want to pinch your cheeks.

I couldn’t help but sneak in another non-freebie. AMH creator Anya also makes an adorable bear shoulder pet named Benny. The first time I saw him, I couldn’t help but ooh and ahh. He’s so sweet, turns this girl into puddles. Eternally sleeping, he lets out some “zzzZZZZzzZZZZzz’s” and snuggles up to your neck. awww

I mentioned Sanu Collars back in this post a little over a week ago. Well, the lovely designer Sanura Sakai has released companion Madame Butterfly Halloween earrings to all her group members. You get orange, green and purple! They are really gorgeous, it’s hard to call them Halloween jewelry when I will surely wear them year round- I recommend that you join the group asap!

xo, Abra

Fashion as Therapy aka. *le sigh*

(and exhale…) *ahhhhhh* I’ve had a tough week, and forgoing any details let’s just say “thank goodness for shopping!” I am from the camp that believes that shopping IS therapy. Mine at least! I mean, I’ll sit on a couch any day, but it better be swathed in rosy velvet and be very very comfortable. Then I can sit and try on shoes with you. ;))

Aside from the RL tough parts, my SL life has been a breeze. No boy drama, no bad purchases, and I got lucky a LOT. Which for me, is the ultimate mood booster. I don’t need drugs people, just give me this hot pink muffler from DP*yumyum. (Ok, a cosmo too, only because it matches ;)) The muffler is a gift on the new lucky boards in the store and let me tell you- soo pretty! It comes with button/no button options and that big bow makes a girl’s heart swell. 

I also stopped by the juicy sim and ooohhhh, all of us can get lucky here! I picked up some Kookie shoes, and so should you! If you don’t own any of her awesome designs yet, now is your chance to scoop some up for free! After you decide they are amazing and want more, run over to her store and buy some of her cute muggys (my new non-free fav). After all…they are all 50% off! This won’t last forever so make haste.

I’m also wearing sn@tch’s dragonfly dress, which is cute and a little nasty too. I like ;)) It comes with the leggings and bangles, so one can layer up or layer down as she pleases.

This bracelet is from Violet Voltaire, and it’s also available at the Juicy sim! The matching earrings, pictured below, are a grand opening gift from Tuli’s new sim Journey. So you can sim hop to complete the set! (We all know Tuli from the amazing skins Adaire wore in the post below. Not to mention the skins we’ve bought and wear all the time.)

Violet is also having a 50% off sale for all pink items, ONLY at her store @ Journey. I’m a big fan of Violet’s sweet/tart jewelry and if you haven’t seen it, all it takes is a look to fall in love.

I noticed you eyeing my skin, o thank you, it’s La Sylphide’s newest Lucky Chair prezzie! (Thank you Ash for the tippie.) Gorgie isn’t it? I love the matte red lips and the slit of green eyeshadow. It’s called party girl, I assume because it’s dressier makeup. I, on the other hand, call it party girl because I wanted to throw one after putting it on! Another instant mood booster.

These purdy chokers were sent over to me by Sanu Collars owner Sanura. They are at once, very beautiful, a little tough and quite sexy. Each choker comes with a glow/non-glow option and you can put scripts in them if you’d like it to function as a collar!

Personally, I’m quite happy to see chokers like this, they differ from the usual plain black leather/spikes/pearls variety yet remain very versatile. 

I love the details on them! Zoom in, they are flawless.

All above are dollarbies! Be sure to check out the non-dollarbies at the store as well, I have my eye on both the ‘Inspired’ and ‘Belle’ designs!

This design is available only in the lucky chair and I think it’s the most elegant & cool Halloween choker I’ve come across in SL! I like orange so I’ll be wearing this year round for sure.

See? Shopping is therapy…

now where’s that cosmo? ;P
