Oh my deer!

Fashiowl Poses just released this adorable deer pose prop with four poses. It'll be available on Dec. 2 at The Frozzen Fair. This pose prop is only 99L$. The set up behind me is a mix of two builds. The first is from M.Law featured at Nov. Tres Chic. I combined it with some pine trees from Skye just to add a little depth. 

I am wearing the updated version of Logo's Alex head which is paired with Lara Hurley's Aria skin. I just love the combination. Logo's new updates include chat emotes & random expressions, now Omega compatible, expression add-on packs, and other bugs fixed. 

I'm wearing a new release from Oleander available at Tannenbaum which is open! The hair comes with removable earmuffs. Tons of colour option available for the muffs as well. The shirt & sweater are new releases from tres blah at the Nov. round of C88. Also sporting the two newest releases from Fri.day the cozy socks & Ingrid boots.

It's Beginning to Look...

First of all... let's get you into the "mood". Here's a little ♫tuneage♫ for you... now that you have that playing you can imagine the mood I was in while I decorated this little scene. For me... the winter season is the most difficult because I'm away from my native country, and most importantly my family. I take a great deal of comfort spending time with friends in SL and well... decorating during this holiday season. For me, if I can make my pixel home feel like Christmas then I've done it right. I held off of snapping this pic for a bit because I really wanted to go visit Tannenbaum which opened today. Ton and tons and TONS of winter goodies. Not just deco stuff either, there are hairstyles, shoes, and clothes available. They also have a tree lot and gacha ornaments available.

Also opened is Lost & Found for it's third round. The vintage living room set from DaD Design caught my eye. The set comes with three different colour options and I couldn't resist using the red/green. Lost & Found is open from Nov. 22 - Dec. 1st.

Fiasco has also come out with some many cute things for Christmas. The candy cane box, the ornament box, and the count down box are all from that shop. These pieces are featured at a few different events so I've included the LMs below.

Snow Bunnies on a Lift

Everyone has been loving this lift seat by Chez Moi. I had to wait 'til I could catch a friend online before I could snap a picture. My friend Maxx was willing to pose with me and I'm super grateful. I've included some raw shots of the different poses the lift swing has. It's chalked full of single and couple's poses. In the photograph below I actually used a pose from Focus Poses.

I am crazy about the hair Beusy released at this round of Tres Chic. Both a short and long style are available. I picked up this winter jacket from Gawk. I'm not sure if it's new, but it's mesh and comes in tons of different colours. It'll be great as a piece in my winter wardrobe.

Your Colours Still Leave Me Wanting More

I'm really not ready to say goodbye to autumn yet, even though the weather outside is telling me winter has arrived. I've seen a lot of amazing winter sims prop up on the grid, but I'm also secretly pleased to see fall-themed sims hanging in there. The sim KiLu is just beautiful! It has different areas for photography and this wonderfully decorated house on the top of a hill.

The outfit I'm wearing is brand new from Lazybones available only at this month's round of Tres Chic. This outfit comes in six different colours. I paired it out with another release from the same event. The shoes are called Wednesday platfroms from Livalle. I couldn't resist wearing the new Fri. cozy socks with them. These socks are now available at  C88 and for the prize you might want to consider snapping up a few different colours.

The Rio de Janerio (Flower) is a hunt gift which is hidden at the mainstore.

Snowflakes & Friends

I got together with my friend Kaelyn Alecto to try and snap some winter pictures. We decided we wanted to do something with the ice rink from What Next. After going through a bunch of poses we settled on Lauria's Friends for Life. 

My outfit is all stuff you can get at Tres Chic which opened on Nov. 17. I'm really enjoying this round of Tres Chic as the releases are amazing. This hair/hair is the short version and I hope to be able to show you the longer version soon. The jeans and shirt come together with little booties (not wearing). Isn't the shirt too funny? The skates/shoes are from Azoury and a great find! 

Head over to Tres Chic and do some winter shopping!

Time Floating By

It's been a while since I've been able to track down my friend Virus for a photo. When we were deciding what to do for the snap, the Ariskea California Vineyard caught my eye. I added a few other pieces to it and we started snapping. We used one of the newest poses from Fashiowl called "Right Where We Are". Lately, Fashiowl has been pumping out poses that are equally sentimental and funny. Check out the flickr stream for more poses.

In The Moment

I've taken notice that when I go furniture shopping I tend to buy light color furniture. I'd like to say that I have more of a wider range of color palettes but I'm beginning to think I'm scared of dark colored furniture lol! So, when I saw this sofa and table from Fiasco, I thought I'd really put myself out of my comfort zone. While taking the photo I really tried for a long time to catch the light coming in from two different places, and I'm satisfied with how it all came together.

The sofa and coffee table by Fiasco are soon to be released at the Love to Decorate Event on November 12th.

Winter is Calling

I'm really looking forward to the winter season and I'm eager to see what everyone will do with their parcels and their houses. I am just settling into my "winter home" by Culprit, and I was eager to show off some of the styling I've done.

Most of the pieces are part of Goose's new Snowflake gacha available at Nov. Cosmopolitan. The set is a much have for the holiday season and I can see a lot of the pieces being used later into the year as well. A majority of the set is unlinked so you're able to move around bits and pieces to create the coziest of winter hideouts.

A lot of the pieces on the floors and the walls I've collected over time and haven't gotten a chance to use. The newest of which is the white vintage mirror behind the tree. It's from Fiasco and one part of a three part set available only at We Love RP. Just beside the window is another piece I've been looking forward to using. It's the hanging wall branch from [atooly.home]. There are a few different colour options available and I really like that you can re-size this item.

Coffee + Friends = Happiness

Almost everyone with friends on SL knows how difficult it can be to meet up with your friends when you are all are on different time zones. While... my friends and my timezone are no exception. I count it a blessing when I can get some quality time with my friends, as I'm sure you do, too.

This setup was constructed by the wonderful and talented Kaelyn Alecto. I was really excited to get a sneak peak at the Dust Bunny farmhouse that's due out in a few day at the new round of C88. It's a very nice build and will be on my must purchase list.

I've been spotted in this outfit for a few days, but I can't help it as it's become one of my favorites. The jacket is from Aphorism (from the previous Chp. Four) and I love it. The shoes are brand new from Essenz called Baltimore. They're open toe and come in 12 colours. They're available at the Gacha Garden from Nov. 1 - 22nd. There is a special HUD that comes with these shoes after 20 rounds of play. It's called the SOI HUD which will not be available after the event. For more information on game play and the event check out http://www.thegachagarden.com/howtoplay

I'm also wearing the new human head Annie from Catwa. I told you I wouldn't be taking this head off anytime soon. I've paired it with the brand new release of Maddison by DeeTaleZ. Maddison is available at We Love Role-play and is currently 25% off.

Annie

A few weeks ago Catwa released her newest mesh head called, "Annie". Annie was a little bit different than her first mesh head as it aimed to be a vampire head. So naturally I wanted to show case it. I took this picture and was really pleased with how it turned out. It was also perfect timing for Halloween.

 

 I was equally excited to hear that Catwa is getting ready to release the Annie head without the vampire teeth. Annie is a great mesh head. Her features are sharp and angular and the way I have my face set up she seems to have a narrow face. There are 9 different emotions on this face and you can see some of them here.

As I've mentioned before I'm a huge face of the eyelashes that are built into the head, as I normally have to wear mesh add-ons. The ones that come with the head offer a few different options and they honestly make the world of difference.

As well, I really wanted to point out how well this Lara Hurley skin compliments the head. I've been a fan of Lara as long as she's been putting out skins, and to be able to wear her skins on my new favorite mesh heads is a big deal. I won't be taking of this skin or head anytime soon. Lara does offer the body appliers for Slink & Maitreya mesh bodies to match this skin. Try out a demo of Christy at Lara's main-store (lm below).

The sweater I'm wearing is the newest release from The Annex which will be available at this month's Chapter Four. The cardi comes in seven different colours. All the cardis have a shirt built in and offer five different shirt colours. You can also turn the shirt off if you prefer.
