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.

A true Lazy Sunday.

I honored this Lazy Sunday by waking up at 2pm. Ooops.

I tried the shadows option in Viewer 2 today, for a change... and I really don't like it. The picture is extremely dark, it's not even funny. Of course with some practice I could probably do better but I rather stick to what I already know : do my own shadows manually in Photoshop.

And yes, even if the picture is dark you can clearly see that I went blonde! It's from the new LeLutka collection with darker roots, and even if I got the dark red pack, the light blonde also called my name so hard, I couldn't resist purchasing it. I'm not a big fan of blonde shades, but LeLutka's are very well done, not too yellow, enough to convince me to put my redhead on the side once in a while!

Pssst! You can't really see it on the main picture so I'm adding a close up : Concrete Flowers is offering a set of 3 adorable rings this Lazy Sunday! So freaking cute, and so practical to punch annoying people in the face. Héhé.

A sad Fifty Lindens Friday.

A very, very sad Friday. Waking up on the news of the japanese earthquake and footage of the devastating tsunami in Sendai, knowing 300 people are reported dead so far in that city only, is beyond horrible.

My heart goes out to all fellows SLers in Japan. <3

It's Friday, lets start the weekend and what's usually three busy days of shopping! Today's Fifty Lindens Friday (FLF) offers cute and very well done stuff, as usual you can find all details at The Rumor. Also, The Dressing Room Blue released their new collection earlier today. And because you can never shop too much, Truth new hairdos Pippa and Florence are just hitting the market too.

Happy weekend!

Is it Friday yet?

Tonight, I decided to try out one of the new shape I made earlier today, which explains why I don't have my usual look. Meet Ashimu the asian inspired petite shape. Isn't she cute?

I started my Friday quite early by visiting the Fifty Lindens Friday (FLF) landmarks before midnight SLT... and I've been lucky since only Theosophy and Miel didn't have their vendor up (indeed, I'm going back tomorrow!).

I must say I've been quite disappointed with last week's FLF but there are plenty of nice goodies this week to make up for it, including this adorable necklace from DECO.

Dress : Indyra Original - La Capitaine in Black

Necklace : DECO - Triple Strand Pearls (Fifty Lindens Friday)

Pose : Statique - Silly 06

* The DECO boots are HUGE and probably made for men; resize and wear an alpha on your feet and you'll be good to go!

Lazy Sunday Fairy.

She may look like a goof, she still offers some great deals out there!

My only comment is regarding the Ruffled Top by Absolution. It's cute, no doubt about it, but the attachment point for the ruffled part being the pec, it looks horrible with an AO on. If you're planning on getting it, remember to reattach it to the shoulder instead ... after trying a few attachment points, chest is the best option.

***

Along the way, I also got the latest Truth release : Minka. I must admit I didn't really like it on the vendor, but when I tried it I really loved it. It's perfect for a lazy-a-bit-messy hair look during the weekend, and comes with bangs too!

On another note, let me introduce you to Dead Carrot, store of my very good (and dorky) friend Lucie Genira. Of course I could say her stuff is amazing just cuz she's my partner in crime, but I'm also gonna say it because her stuff is amazing. She has the best alpha liners, blushes and liptints ever, in multiple colors, in order to enhance your basic make up. Have a look at her store and grab the Monroe Piercing from Lazy Sunday at the same time!
