If you are in the mood to shop you've found the right time. Some major events are happening right now, many with the purpose of raising funds for charity.
Culture Shock 2012 comes to an end on May 26th and has raised well over a 1.4 million Lindens for the charity
Médecins Sans Frontières. The event has been fantastic and mesh is the star. It's hard to imagine now what we ever did without it. Chic Management has been challenged by the charity to earn 2 million dollars so tp on over! The blue Mahvi Sequined Pants (mesh) from
Miamai are an
exclusive color at Culture Shock and a perfect tone for summer. The sequined texture picks up all kinds of high notes making them really fun to dress up or down. I'm in love with the Safari Back necklace from
Finesmith and it is another Culture Shock
exclusive so you really might want to get back for a last look before these are a thing of the past.
Before I get started on Home Expo I wanted to quickly mention that Mimi Coral from
Cupcakes had her 8th Rezday yesterday and they are having an amazing sale on select items. All clothing is 25 or 50 lindens, the Charm skin line is 50 L, several full perm templates for mesh clothing and skins are steeply discounted as well as discounts on eyes and some Model Kits. Being a frugalista, I had to grab the St. Patrick's Day model kit for 50 L as it included the skin above in 3 tones, 2 mesh dresses, and several pairs of eyes. I've been a Cupcakes supporter since before Mimi and Rosemary Galbraith merged their two stores; they are so generous and sweet.
This gorgeous piece of furnishing is from
Trompe Loeil and makes it's debut at Home Expo 2012. Home Expo 2012 is the largest home products event of the year and features 13 sims, musical entertainment, a breedables fair as well as a hunt, silent auction and a grid-wide raffle. This event continues it's tradition of benefitting
Relay for Life, the fundraising arm of the American Cancer Society. The event has a short run of only 10 days, ending May 28th at 10 PM SLT. Please follow this
link for tons of information for the expo, including maps and slurls and a catalog of exclusive items.
The Tropical Beachside Bed above is a 100% donation item from Trompe Loeil. It is a mesh product and with a land impact of 38 prims. It comes in an instant set-up and includes everything seen here (except my land, lol). Both the bed and the deck have single and couples poses. The sheltered bed, as well as each pillow and billowing curtains, have several texture changing options for a myriad of possibilites.
Another stunning Trompe Loeil offering with 100% of it's proceeds benefiting RFL is the Tropical Scoop Bed. It is also a mesh product and is available in 3 wicker colors. The deck is from the Beachside Bed above so is not included. The Scoop has a touch-activated top that smoothly moves up and down for stargazing/sunbathing. All fabric elements are individually texture change and I am showing a sample of colors available. The palm trees in this photo are part of a mesh megapack of 48 trees that includes 3 models with 4 bark and 4 leaf textures for each. This is also a 100% donation item and with the exceptional attention to detail that Cory Edo offers in this product you should never need another palm tree again. Thank you, Cory!
