My Blog

Blogging for me is an extension of my mood and now my photography. This is nothing new as my of my readers have seen so much over the past few years – happy and kinda grumpy.

Over the past year or so, its been more about my photography. I’ve reading and watching a ton of tutorials to help me advance my skills. My flickr is filled with pics of Express and I to projects I’ve done. This all really just oozed onto my blog. Here all this time I was thinking Flickr would host the creativity and the blog would be more serious. I like that my blog is less stiff then before and it keeps evolving with me.

Shoe Fair: The Location

Shoe Fair’s theme is country and spread over four sims. The four sims are decorated with large barns that are booths for the designers and haybales for supporting creators. Along the path there are also fences, silos, and cornfields. Not only do the sims load in super fast but look just as good. Its honestly a pleasure to wonder through the dirty tracks to each of the barns.

To learn more about this fair, check out my Shoe Fair Series. Below the cut find out who this shoe designer is, the fair location and the style details.

Tuli’s Audrey

Tuli will launch another stunner called Audrey on Wednesday, August 11th. The VIP group has already seen a sneak at the beauty. For us, on this blog, we got to see the makeups and little surprises Tuli created.

We are always in love with the makeups and overall skins. This time Tuli added in tattoo layers for this release. The added layers are for matted and gloss lipsticks, lashes and cleavage. These items only work with this skin and in viewers that support the tattoo layers.

For me, I showed off the skins using no tattoos and you can see how stunning they are without the added features … well except cleavage. Guess what skin is the VIP group gift …

Check out below for the close up of one of my favorite Audrey makeups and the style sheet for all the girls.

Shoe Fair: The Designers

Over 50 shoe designers are participating at this year’s Shoe Fair. These designers are spread over four sims. Between the shoe designers there are other non-shoe creators also showing their products. These stores are on the haybale clusters dotted along the walkway. Tons of things, just not shoes, are shown at the fair.

In my all my past posts and this one, I’ve used one of those creators that you can find on the haybales. Find out who these two designer are that I’m showing off today after the cut.

Ready or Not

Two of my favorite designers are launching new products. One being a ton of new clothing from Phoenix Rising. Just a week ago, there was huge release of items and now this one. I can’t get over the amount of new things coming from this brand. I love it all too!

The other new item is the skin by Tuli. Its the latest addition to the Gina collection at The Dressing Room. Every 2 weeks there Tuli has a new Gina makeup. I made sure to do a close up of this makeup, its just below the cut.

Exodi: Isolde

Isolde is such a beautiful name and ideal for this innocent faced skin. Exodi released a little teeeeny little sneak peek to the VIP group just a few days ago.

The group gift is just one makeup in all the skin tones. It comes with two different brow colors (light and dark) and the two cleavage options. Guess what ones I picked … they don’t call me “Luna Boobilee” for nothing!

Now let’s keep our fingers crossed for the next option to be freckles. I love me some freckled skin!

Store Location: Exodi

A little cheer

I don’t typically shop the entire lists of any of the special price day marketing thingies. This week, like the others, I shopped with my blogging partner, Scarlet. We only picked a few of the designers, she more than me.

Tiny Bird and Reek have FLF items this week in addition to new releases. Using Scarlet to help show off the new items is perfect. Usually I wear the all white attire but not this time. I have so many wonderful colors in my inventory that I just never wear.

Casual Saturday

Tons of stuff going on this afternoon. Express and I were just relaxing after us running around picking up new releases. He went off to Phoenix Rising before they ended their 1L sale. I went over to Tableau for the summer sale.

We planned a more fashion post but sometimes work calls. Honestly, we don’t mind. Its all part of our day!

Tuli VIP gift: Tanya

Tanya, a new darker skin line soon to be released, is available at Tuli for group members only. I’m really happy to see this brand starting to dabble in the darker tones. Scarlet, my alt, was brought on to my blog just for this reason. I needed another av to showcase those colors and tones that I don’t typically wear. So many designers are beginning to branch out allowing us to be more diverse. Its a great thing!

If you too are looking and waiting for a new darker tone, check out Tuli’s VIP group to pick up Tanya. This skin is only available at the store.
