Shack it baby!

I discovered the Shack thanks to Zahra from Fancifull Freebies, and I hadn't had time to get there and stalk the lucky boards yet... There are 5 of them, with at least 2 different gifts in it, but I haven't been too lucky so far, so here is only a sample of what you can get. The boards are group only, you will have to ask a member to invite you, but it shouldn't be a problem, there is pretty much always a group of people at the boards. There are also 2 MM boards on the side, and they haven't locked for quite some time... Now, less blahblah, more oooohhh and aaaaahh :




I matched the above outfits with that
 amazing hairbase from DeeTaleZ that I got
 in the Moolto hunt and now can't live without.










Hair is the latest Magika hair, Tessa 
(not free but a pure delight)

Jeans from Deviance (not free),
because no matter  how pretty 
Gala Phoenix (Curio) made it, 
I am not showing you my tushie

The worst blog post ever.

Today, I got back from work, logged into SL and found a selection of terri.tees latest creations. I like her shirts, they're simple yet original, sometimes a little crazy, and alway cheap. Which is why I was pretty happy to find them. So here I am, on my posestand, happily opening my boxes, completely oblivious of the drama that is about to fall over me, smiling, and all... 

...


I decide which one to wear first, and start removing the numerous layers of clothing I am currently wearing, but strangely enough, they don't seem to disappear... I can't remove my shirt! And I think to myself... what a wonderful crappy world... Anyway. What to do next? Yes, you're right, CLEAR the damn CACHE and relog, right? 

...

Well, let's face it, it's a fail, because here's what I look like now:



Just so you know, I am wearing an extraordinary shirt from terri.tees (and you can check it here) and I am a bit disappointed that I can't show you my new haircut... who knew I was so cute even a mohawk looks adorable on me?

EDIT
My friend Eden just taught me a trick to stop looking like a cloud!!! Yay! Since I'm a nice person (mostly) I'll share it with you... On SL2, go to your Develop Menu -> Avatar -> Character Tests -> Test Female (IF you're a female LOL). You will then look like that:


I know. Nightmare. Right? I'm still crying. But at least not cloudy anymore. That's when I tell you to create a folder with your basic self, i.e. shape + skin + eyes + hairbase + hair + clothes (SL2 has a special feature for that, it's called "my outfits" but a plain folder works fine too). Now you can go to that folder, choose "replace current outfit" and... TA DAA!!


OOoops!

Ze French Touch...

Françoise was trying to focus on her writing, but her hands were shaking, and she couldn't keep her eyes of the clock... 13:04... He was leaving work... 13:38... Probably at the train station now... 13:57... The train was taking off, and she could almost feel it slowly set in motion, bringing her lover, inch by inch, closer to her... She kept looking at the  clock, wishing for  time to go faster... 15:10... He was arriving in Paris now, and would take the Metro all the way accross the city from Saint-Lazare to Gare de l'Est... she was hoping  he would be fine, she'd never trusted these underground machines... 16:09... Train taking off again... her hearts was beating faster now, and she realised she hadn't written a single line all day... She turned of her computer and walked to her bedroom, dropping her comfy clothes on the way...

For a long moment, she considered her own reflection in the tall mirror... She turned around, looked at her petite body and smiled... soon he would be here, holding her in his arms, after those long weeks away... One last look at the clock and she jumped! 17:07... The train was due in 25 minutes...  



She quickly slipped in her new dress and shoes, gabbed her keys and ran down the stairs. When she arrived at the station she could hear the sound of train brakes... She ran even faster.



Jean-Paul was smiling, it was a bright day and he was on the train taking him back to his beloved... He was picturing her smile, her eyes, her curves while staring outside the window... her skin, her voice, her hair... her hair was shorter... SHORTER? It only took Jean-Paul a second to realise the train was stopping and a very real Françoise was beaming at him, standing on the platform. He grabbed his old suitcase and rushed out of the train... 


FIN.
(the end)

/me pouts

Hello Folks! If you haven't gone to the Vanity Universe Skin Fair yet, well, you :
  1. Are just like me an hour ago, and completely oblivious of the amazing stuff that can be found there.
  2. Might want to hurry, because it ends on March 6th.
I was litterally drooling over Curio's blog, and particularly over Pout, one of her new faces, that I can't really talk about here, because it's way over 100l$, but will show you tomorrow on Look What the Cat Brought, when something caught my attention: the words "gift" and "Pout" in the same sentence... As you can imagine, I read the sentence twice and then teleported as fast as my crappy internet connection allowed me to and grabbed those four lipstick tattoos for Pout (along with the whole Pout megapack, but that's a whole other story...)








I feel so hot I could totally hump myself right now! Oh BTW, like the hair? It's free (and slightly recolored) from Analog Dog, and you can find it (along with a few others) in a bubble on the beach. What? The eyes? Really? You need me to tell you again that they are from Banana Banshee? *blushes* Oh, glad you like them! They're 100l$

*runs to bed*
