Friday, I'm in love.

I know, I know, it's Fifty Lindens Friday and I'm not even talking about it!? What's happening? Well I was just too busy shopping for a coat. And finding one that won't mess with your boobs, hips, butt, AO and that also looks good is something very rare. Fortunately, there is Aoharu and once again, the new Mini Lenght Trench Coat reaches all my expectations. And the textures / colors are gorgeous! I got myself the Ivory (which is closer to camel, in my opinion) one and I had to stop myself from getting the fatpack.

I very rarely purchase fatpacks because I'm trying to convince myself I don't need the same item in 8 or 12 colors. The amount of money I saved this past 2 years by doing so is simply astonishing... but this coat almost got me.

Instead, I also spoiled myself with the Feminine Fut Tippet Coat in brown, also from Aoharu.

While I was there, I grabbed the Dungaree shirt Special Edition in red. It's only 50$L and every penny goes directly to Japan. Honestly, red is not my color but for such low price and good cause, I had to get it. Available at Aoharu Mainstore only.

Mon Tissu d'amour.

If I had to shop at only one store for the rest of my SL life, I would choose Mon Tissu without hesitation. I love everything there, and I mostly love the fact that you can easily look put together (yet comfy) just by throwing on any of their stuff randomly. Their products are amazingly well done and you look great without any damn effort. If you don't know about Mon Tissu yet, you're really missing something.

Today I went to check their new (well... about 1 week old) "Sweet Sophisticate" collection and I love the très french vibe to it. You look like you deserve to live in Paris. Ah Paris! Who doesn't want to look as good and put together as these lovely Parisiennes?

New release at LeLutka.

I've been waiting for this moment since two weeks : Gem, the latest skin from LeLutka's Aéré Collection, is finally available! This is - by far - my favorite skin from LeLutka to this day.

Only, like every other LeLutka skins, Gem is ultra matte and doesn't look good if not under some very specific Sky Settings (in the Environment Editor). Perhaps I'm just being picky? It still bothers me.

Also, let me tell you I'm not sure LeLutka's new packaging is really as ~more affordable~ as they want us to believe. LeLutka used to sell 1 base skin + 7 make ups, for a total of 8 skins for 3,000$L. They're now offering two packs of 1 base skin + 4 make ups for 2,000$L each, for a total of 9 skins (the basic skin is the same in both pack) for 4,000$L.

Where is the 3,000$L fatpack? It's gone. If you want all make ups options for Gem, you now need to spend 4,000$L. Of course you're getting an extra skin compared to other packs but you pay 1,000$ for it. Do the maths, that's not ~more affordable~.

I'm still debating if I'll get Gem or not. I might take a few days to think about it. Meanwhile, if you wanna know more, read the LeLutka Blog.
