This Week in Capitalism

 Red Baron/Baroness Dogfighting kit for 60L

Although this does not appear to be clothing, per se, it is worn.  I had seen the Red Baron while at Altya's Dream Creations picking up a freebie of some kind (I think it was the Nanny av).  As is my wont, I often stop and look at the other merchandise and have been known to actually buy items with real Linden dollars and ev'rything.  The items for sale were so interesting that I spent quite a while looking at each one.  The Red Baron piqued my interest, but at 300L it seemed a bit outside my limit (which is usually 0L) but I knew at least one friend who would think it absolutely hilarious.  I slapped the Subscribo and moved on.

Imagine my surprise when in a few days I got a message saying that selfsame Red Baron was the 60L item for this week!  That's the perfect price for something silly!  Hence my hysterical notices on all social media and direct IM'ing of friends in-world.  Now I'm lying in wait for Altya's hospital bed to turn up.  

Oh, and The White Armory put out a new freebie for their group members.  Group membership is more difficult to come by these day.  I'm not surprised.  I could see a huge upsurge of members with the extension of the group limits.  Either that or people have been jumping on and off group membership, which is something I don't do.  I will join groups if I think I'm going to stick with them for a while.  Anyway, here's the dress:

Ooooooooooo!

Aaaaand, goggles on, chocks away, last one up's a Euro-federalist!

High Spirits

 Lludmila drops her wish in the box.

Paris Metro (renowned for their past generosity) is participating in a treasure hunt.  My post-menopausal brain could hardly handle the clues, but I managed to get it done in less than an hour.  If I hadn't been so pressed for time, I could have dawdled more and looked at the merchandise.  It's not that hard, but don't make Lludmila's mistake and keep hitting the question book looking for an interesting question.  She got spoken to.  Heh!  In the photo above, Lludmila is wearing the colorful outfit you get partway through the hunt and have to take your picture in.  This will cost you 10L to upload, so completing the hunt isn't totally free, but getting the clothes is.  A chance of getting your wish come true, though, might be worth the 10L!  Start here.

Dream in Lavendar

Kathy models The White Armory Group Gift for this week.

... And it comes with shoooooes!  Also shown:

Lua Smoke hair from Analog Dog freeball

Elsa earrings from MIAO  (who currently has a 30L sale going on some clothes and jewelry)

Trinity Moon Enchanted Teardrop necklace - just because that cleavage needed a focal point (heh!) but I can't find her store anymore.

And, of course, Luthien's Dream gown from The White Armory 

New Hair and Jeans

 New: Fancy jeans from Bottle Bird and free hair from Magika

Lludmila loves being a gen-you-wine fashion blogger because not only does she get skins and clothes named after her (no doubt to draw in that huge Undead readership - ha ha), but designers will just send her stuff!  Recently she got this pair of lace print jeans from Bottle Bird and, y'know what?  They cover her ass!  Hurrah!  Yes, they're low on the hip and a bit of tummy peeks out (something I fortunately do not have to worry about in SL), but I proclaim the lace print jeans to be both quite lovely and Unslutty!

Now, did we crash the sim yesterday at Magika when the free hair came out?  Oh, look!  There's Kathy in the gold version of the lovely and Unslutty lace print jeans!  My my, aren't they popu-OMG!  That poor woman!  Half of her outfit seems to have mysteriously evaporated.  Again, props to designers who can recognize what can be easily done in a virtual setting that might require a pail of eyelash glue in RL(tm) to achieve.  But that look is just not for me.  

Braving the av-storm at Magika to get the free sparkly hair. 

Forecast: misty with a chance of sleaze.
